An outstanding balance of $5,361.10 remains due to the Housing Fund.

It details the highest and best use analysis, marketability commentary, and land value estimation for several parcels.

The analysis indicates a limited demand and average supply for properties in the area, with stable but cautious economic conditions. The highest and best use for the subject property is considered mixed-use, with a residential use being most likely due to demand for affordable housing. [South of the intersection of E. 6th Street and Cone Avenue; case GAG File No: 2025-0023] This document is an appraisal report for a vacant site located south of the intersection of E. 6th Street and Cone Avenue in Panama City, Florida.

The effective value date was February 20, 2025. The report details the property's physical characteristics, zoning (Downtown District - DTD), market conditions, and provides comparable land sales data to estimate market value. The highest and best use analysis suggests potential for an owner-occupied service-type structure. The estimated market value of the land is $500,000, with an estimated marketing time of 6-12 months. No public comment or stakeholder sentiment is recorded in this document. [6th Street & Harmon Avenue] MRS Enterprises LLC submitted an unsolicited proposal to acquire city-owned parcels at 6th Street & Harmon Avenue in Panama City, Florida, for $350,000.

These funds will be allocated back to the specific division expense accounts within Public Works and Utilities that originally absorbed the repair costs.
