Summary

A proposal to lease two acres on Highway 6 to Ebenezer Church for $500 per month with a five-year lease (up to 10 years) was presented; county staff arranged a site visit and no final action appears in the transcript.

County commissioners discussed a proposal from Ebenezer Church to lease two acres of county property on Highway 6. The church provided a proposal for a $500-per-month lease for two acres, with an initial five-year term and an option to extend up to 10 years.

A commissioner said the property visit would be conducted and that the county had received a printout and paperwork. Staff reported forwarding the church’s proposal to Justin in Holland for review. The transcript records outreach and the paperwork exchange but does not record a formal motion or vote approving the lease.

Why it matters: A county land lease for $500 per month and a multi-year term could create a recurring revenue stream and affect use of the Highway 6 parcel. Commissioners noted resident petitions and community feedback will be factors to consider before a final decision.

Less critical details: One commissioner said parishioners had gathered signatures in support of a separate petition and that the county would pull a different proposed placement if neighbors objected. A staff site visit to inspect the property was scheduled.
