The Los Angeles City Council approved Tuesday the release of 24 land parcels in Owens Valley for sale, opening the way for a public auction tentatively planned for this winter.
According to a Department of Water and Power official, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has 10 days to approve the decision, followed by a 30-day review period, then “we go to auction.â€
In the meantime, the parcels will be reappraised to ensure the opening bid reflects current market value.
