MANASSAS -- In a unanimous vote, the Manassas City Council on Monday cleared the way for a charity to purchase, and fix the beleaguered East End Mobile Home Park.
The city was ready to pay $1.9 million for the park along Route 28 after its owner, East End Mobile Home Park, LLC, did not fix leading sewage in the park. City leaders had planned to force out some 300 people who live in 58 trailers in the park, demolish the trailers, and fix the leasing sewage problem.
Last night, city leaders approved the first of a two-part agreement to allow an $1.4 million "alternate purchase agreement" for Catholics for Housing to buy the property and fix the sewer system which now leaks raw sewage into storm drains that collect rainwater, which is then treated at a regional water treatment facility that produces drinking water.
