Motion by Mr. Moody, and seconded by Ms. Lucas-Burke, to accept the applicant’s letter of withdrawal, and was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Barnes, Battle, Lucas-Burke, Moody, Whitaker, Woodard, Glover Nays: None - Unfinished Business - 22 - 157 - Adoption of a resolution to acquire 320 Quebec Street (Tax Parcel 0094- 0910). Deferred from the May 24, 2022, City Council meeting. Background:  Several years ago, City-affiliated entities, including PPIC and PRHA, acquired a number of properties in the Sugar Hill section of Portsmouth. PRHA acquired 320 Quebec Street at tax sale in 2005.  While the acquisitions were originally made with an eye toward potential development of the area, it was ultimately determined by the City that development was not desirable because the Sugar Hill area is too low-lying and has too many flooding concerns.  At the request of City Council in 2013, PPIC conveyed all of its property in Sugar Hill to the City.  The 320 Quebec Street property has a home on it, and until recently PRHA leased the home for residential occupancy.
