Additional Property Attributes

The Site consists of the vacant St. Ignatius School building and a portion of the St. Ignatius Campus, encompassing an approximate 1.54-acre parcel of land identified by the City of Sanford Assessor�s Office as Lot 55 and a portion of Lot 63 on Tax Map K28, located at 6 St. Ignatius Street in Sanford. The vacant St. Ignatius School is proposed to be renovated, redeveloped, and re-purposed for residential apartment use (St. Ignatius Apartments). Based on available information, the St. Ignatius Campus was improved with four to five residential dwellings sometime during the 1800s. The School building was constructed circa 1926 at the eastern portion of the Site (Tax Map K28, Lot 63). The basement/ground level (1st floor) of the School building was utilized as a church and the upper levels (2nd and 3rd floors) were utilized as a high school until 1969. The Church continued operations on the basement/first floor of the School building until 2007 and the upper levels were used for religious education and meetings, until the building was fully vacated in 2007. From 1964 to 1966, St. Ignatius parish acquired the western portion of the Site (Tax Map K28, Lot 55), demolished the former residential buildings, and utilized the property as a parking lot. Remaining portions (�off-site�) of the St. Ignatius Campus are currently improved with three buildings, which are described as the Rectory, Garage, and Convent. The Rectory is currently vacant. The Convent is currently utilized by the St. Therese of Lisieux parish for church housing and meeting purposes. The Garage is currently utilized for vehicle and miscellaneous landscaping/tool storage purposes. Remaining portions of the Site are improved with asphalt-paved driveways/parking lots/sidewalks, grassed lawns, and landscaped areas.

Former Use: The Site is currently improved with four buildings (the �Site buildings�), which are described as the School, Rectory, Garage, and Convent. The School and Rectory are currently vacant. The Convent is currently utilized by the St. Therese of Lisieux parish for church housing and meeting purposes. The Garage is currently utilized for vehicle and miscellaneous landscaping/tool storage purposes. The church, school, and rectory buildings were reportedly constructed in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Properties in the Site vicinity have reportedly been utilized for mixed commercial and residential purposes dating back to the 1800s. The southwestern adjoining property (currently 7-Eleven gasoline filling station) was formerly occupied by an Esso gasoline filling/service station during the mid-1900s. The western adjoining property (currently York County Federal Credit Union) was formerly occupied by the William Canton Chevrolet automobile dealership/service center. Gasoline underground storage tanks (USTs) are currently in use at the 7-Eleven property. Reportedly, gasoline USTs were also formerly utilized by the prior Esso gasoline filling/service station and at the former William Canton Chevrolet automobile dealership/service center.
