On Tuesday night at the City Council meeting, which I just got around the finally finishing, Mayor Marie Gilmore reported during Council Communications that she had recently met with the East Bay Regional Parks Department (EBRPD) and the issue of the surplusing and auction of Neptune Pointe came up. She mentioned that EBRPD was very interested in purchasing the property because it would fit in with their general plans, but that the Feds were very clear that the procedure would be to go through this auction process.
Here’s the sticking point, according to EBRPD the road that leads into the property, McKay, actually belongs to EBRPD. So any potential bidder should know that (1) EBRPD wants the property for their own use and (2) they own the only access road into the property.
