"If it all came together the way it could come together, it really would be exciting," said H. Craig Petersen, chairman of the Cache County Council. "The devil's in the details.

"Almost every hour the opportunities seem to change," Petersen said immediately following an executive session to discuss offers for the property owned by the county on 100 West between 100 North and 200 North. A new proposal for the northwest corner would have a dramatic impact on downtown Logan, he said.

The council also has received several development proposals for the southwest corner of the block, Petersen said, adding that a previous proposal from Workforce Services to develop a new employment center is under consideration for this location.

The fate of the Workforce Services proposal has been up in the air for several weeks, since complaints from the Historic Logan Downtown Business Alliance compelled the county officials to take more time advertising the sale of the property.

"We have not formally put that corner up for bid, but the county has received an attractive proposal for purchase and development of that corner and also for a central parking area that would include a parking terrace," Petersen said Tuesday night.

"The county will formally surplus that property . . . and place that property up for competitive bid."

A decision is expected on April 25, Petersen said, after the council meets in an executive session with Logan Mayor Doug Thompson and the City Council.
