Real property owned by the City may be sold or leased upon a determination by Council that such real property is not needed for public use. Because real property is unique and the circumstances surrounding the disposition of that property are unique to each situation, Council shall determine the method of the sale or lease of such real property on a case by case basis and shall set forth that method in the ordinance authorizing that sale or lease. Council may authorize the City Manager to sell or lease real property by negotiation with one or more persons or by competitive bid, either formal or informal, as determined by Council in the authorizing ordinance.
