S. Babcock Street, which was the previous location of the Police Department

City Council Meeting · 2026-04-28 · agenda_item

The City of Melbourne is planning to sell surplus city-owned property located at S. Babcock Street, formerly the site of the Police Department Communications Center. This property is currently under review for disposition through a competitive bid process. The city has received multiple proposals and is currently considering Letters of Intent to Purchase. The property is expected to undergo significant renovation, potentially including a new roof and air conditioning system, and could be used for community services, education, or administrative offices. This process is in its early stages, with the city council selecting a primary and alternate buyer. This project will likely involve site preparation, building renovation, and potentially new construction, creating opportunities for general contractors, trades, and suppliers. Early engagement with the city could provide valuable insight as plans develop before formal bids and permits are finalized.
