Tacoma port commission considers Maytown sale

The Port of Tacoma Commission is scheduled to vote on the final sale of the port’s controversial Maytown property at its meeting Thursday.

The port bought the Thurston County property for $22 million in 2006 with plans of jointly developing a rail logistics center with the Port of Olympia, though residents’ concerns about the project ultimately derailed the proposal.

The agency negotiated with the winning bidder — Maytown Sand and Gravel, LLC — for more than a year. The LLC is made up of California-based Southwind Realty Group and Federal Way-based gravel mining and construction company, Lloyd Enterprises.

The commission meeting is scheduled for noon at the Fabulich Center. Look for more information on details of the sale on www.thenewstribune.com Thursday and in Friday’s newspaper.
