Seaside Park officials have asked the press to remind potential bidders that offers are due the morning of Monday, July 10 for a former rental property acquired by the borough last year.

The property at 66 I Street had gone up for auction in April, however no bids were received.

The property consisted of two structures that were utilized as rental units, and was purchased in January 2022 for $850,000. After its tenants left the premises, the building was marked unsafe and, in March, was demolished. The property was voluntarily sold to the borough after officials recommended the declaration of the property as an area in need of redevelopment, the first step toward a potential condemnation.
