Resolution_6479_-_Pumphouse.pdf

This document is a City of Cheyenne, Wyoming resolution directing the listing of the Cheyenne Auxiliary Pumping Station located at 1504 Dillon Avenue for sale or lease to the public. The resolution addresses a unique historical structure that is currently abandoned and presents ongoing security and public safety concerns. The City aims to obtain an appraisal or market assessment for the property and is seeking potential entrepreneurs or business owners interested in the Pump House for future business opportunities.

The estimated costs for restoration are significant, with approximately $1,000,000 needed to replace the roof and prepare the structure to be mothballed, and an additional $4,000,000 required to restore the Pump House for potential tenant use. The resolution provides a timeline for sale or lease, with the City planning to cease efforts and proceed with demolition if no valid contract is secured by January 14, 2026. All proceeds from a potential sale would be deposited into the Revolving Real Property Special Revenue Fund. The City is also committed to preserving the historical integrity of the structure, prohibiting modifications that would compromise its historical significance.
