The historical revenue is as follows: 2019 $41,291 2020 $40,415 2021 $80,450 (new campground rates took effect in 2021) The task order would develop the different possible housing opportunity concepts that the property could be used for. Included in this resolution is a possible layout of the lots that would be created, but it should be noted that this task order will actually produce the preferable layout of lots which will maximize the utilization of the property in order to create housing.
