Board engages auctioneer and authorizes appraisals for multiple district properties
Loading...
Summary
The board approved an on-call auctioneer engagement and contracted appraisals for three district properties as it continues due diligence on potential dispositions.
The Sky Board of Education voted to engage Kaufman Realty (auction services) on an on-call basis for potential real and personal property sales and to contract with Integra Realty Resources for appraisals of Northview Elementary and Washington Irving Middle School — and to include Heights Field — at $3,400 per school, $6,800 total, with a 21-day turnaround.
Board members clarified that engaging the auctioneer does not commit the district to immediate sale; the auctioneer is a firm on call and the district must still approve any specific auction listing. The board also discussed that any disposition would require separate review and potential negotiation with the city of Clarksburg and other stakeholders.
The motion to approve the appraisal engagement and auctioneer was approved by voice vote. Board members emphasized that no final decisions have been made on the properties and said the board is conducting due diligence to collect valuation and other facts before pursuing any sale or transfer.
Board members asked staff to pursue appraisal work and return findings; the record shows a 21-day timeframe for appraisal turnaround and staff said they will share results with the board when available.
