Staff Reporter ORANGE BEACH -- With eyes toward relocating its Parks and Recreation Department closer to the Canal Road facilities it oversees, the City Council on Tuesday voted unanimously to buy two Walker Road lots.
The council will pay $140,000 for a 100-square-foot parcel featuring a small building and $240,000 for a larger lot upon which sits a building housing Hart's All Service Inc. Robert and Jayne Hart own the business and are selling the property, city records show.
The smaller lot is immediately north of the parcel where the city's Fire Station No. 2 used to sit. A slender lot then separates the 1,000-square-foot property from the larger tract.
