Answers Posted: October 7, 2024 by 3:00 pm (CST) The City of Council Bluffs through its Community Development Department is accepting proposals for the purchase and development of approximately 6.45 acres of real estate located in west Council Bluffs for the development of multi-family or mixed-use housing and commercial. The north portion of the subject property is located at the north of the 1st Avenue Trail south West Broadway and is 2.21 acres in size. The south portion of the subject property on the north side of 2nd Avenue is approximately 4.24 acres in size. This opportunity is being managed by the city's Community Development Department, which is seeking developers interested in contributing to the area's residential and commercial growth. The block, located between a commercial district to the north and a single-family neighborhood to the south, presents a unique opportunity to blend different densities while respecting the character of the surrounding areas. To align with the city's vision, the development should focus on creating an urban environment along 1st Avenue by increasing density in the corridor. This area should feature higher-density housing, establishing a distinct edge that complements the nearby commercial district. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
