The anticipated revenue is not in the FY 26-27 budget; however, the actual one-time revenue would be applied in the fiscal year in which revenue is received.This will be a net benefit as the parcels would be returned to tax rolls and ongoing maintenance and liability for PBOT would be eliminated.

The City of Portland ordains.Section 1. The Council finds:In 1970, the City acquired Lot 8 and portions of Lots 5 and 6, Block 2, First Sub-Division of McKinley Park for the construction of the SE Foster and SE Woodstock Road Improvement Project. The first remnant parcel is 3,163 sf and second remnant parcel is 346 sf. The parcels are respectively identified in Multnomah County Assessor's records as R215658 and R715365 (the Parcels). Legal descriptions and site map of the Parcels are attached as Exhibits A and B respectively, and by this reference incorporated herein. The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) does not have a transportation related use for the Parcels. Beginning in April 2025, PBOT solicited internal comments from within the bureau and declared the Parcels to be excess to its needs. PBOT worked with the City Real Property Coordinator in accordance with Administrative Rule 13.02 and notified other City bureaus of the intent to dispose of the Parcels. No City bureaus expressed interest or need to control or reserve easements on the Parcels. The City Real Property Coordinator and PBOT solicited external notification, which included posting signage, listing on City website, notifying neighborhood associations, mailing to surrounding properties, and notifying other government agencies. The Parcels are now presented to Council to be declared as surplus property for disposition. NOW, THEREFORE, the Council directs:The Parcels are declared as surplus, and Council authorizes PBOT to dispose of the Parcels by sale on the open market.
