Board approves deeds and easement agreements required to close sale of district property at 9211 Halesworth Drive

Winton Woods trustees on Monday approved the deeds and two encroachment-easement agreements necessary to complete the sale of district-owned property at 9211 Halesworth Drive.

Superintendent Denny said the actions implement terms of a sales agreement with the buyer (identified in the packet). The board approved a deed from the board to itself for an updated legal description and then approved deeds required to convey the property to the buyer. In addition, two encroachment easement agreements (with N. Thomas and V. Green, trustee) were approved to resolve encroachments and allow closing.

Why it matters: The approvals are routine closing actions that clear title and record an accurate legal description, and resolving encroachments was necessary to complete the real-estate transaction.

Board action: The board voted unanimously to approve the deeds, grant the easement agreements and authorize board president and treasurer to execute the documents.

Discussion and next steps: Staff said the easement agreements were added to the agenda late in the day to ensure they would be in place for the closing. The board authorized execution by the president and treasurer and the sale will proceed to closing under the authorized documents.

Ending: The board completed the required steps to allow the real-estate sale to proceed and authorized district officers to sign conveyance and easement documents.
