Developers, investors and organizations with community opportunities can submit proposals that would bring value to the district such as expanding academic offerings, bringing in revenue and increasing availability of affordable housing for families and staff. AISD will host a pre-bid conference at 9 a.m. Oct. 18 that is open to all interested parties at the Allan Center cafeteria. Property tours will be scheduled beginning Oct. 20. AISD has hired Austin-based Southwest Strategies Group to handle the brokerage and marketing services for the properties.
