Commissioners take the Women Support Each Other property offer under advisement
Summary
A nonprofit seeking to acquire county-owned lot at 804 East Willard to establish headquarters had its request tabled while commissioners seek additional information and safeguards.
A representative of Women Support Each Other, a nonprofit formed in 2023, asked the county April 7 for the county-owned lot at 804 East Willard to serve as a headquarters for the organization’s support groups and community programming.
The presenter said the organization had secured tax-exempt status from the IRS and was seeking to expand programming on Willard Street. The county indicated the parcel was likely acquired through prior tax-sale processes and that it was a vacant lot. Commissioners said they were sympathetic to nonprofit proposals but wanted assurances and a mechanism to retake the property if conditions were not met.
Outcome: Commissioners voted to table the request for further research and to review deed history and potential reversion mechanisms; the motion passed by roll call. Staff said the item would be brought back at a subsequent meeting.
