Rawlins making moves to sell off Antelope Flats

Rawlins City Council is taking steps to sell off land the municipality owns near the golf course.

Years ago, city officials hoped to sell the entire area known as Antelope Flats as a subdivision to a single developer. This never happened. No entity has expressed interest in purchasing the entire area, but several parties have come forward with proposals for one or two lots at a time.

Last week, city council voted 5-2 in favor of having all 26 lots appraised in preparation for putting them up for sale. Cali O’Hare reports.
