School board approves sales of Keller, Frable and Wequiaq properties totaling $1.735 million
Summary
The board approved three separate commercial offers for district properties: Keller Elementary for $800,000, Frable Early Learning Center for $435,000, and Wequiaq Elementary for $500,000. Votes ranged from 6–1 to 5–2; one board member cited concerns about exploring nontraditional housing or district reuse before sale.
The Green Bay Area Public School District Board of Education approved three commercial offers for district-owned properties at its special meeting on April 17.
The board voted to approve: an $800,000 offer for Keller Elementary (with modifications set out in a counteroffer dated April 15, 2025); a $435,000 offer for Frable Early Learning Center (offer dated April 11, 2025, with counteroffer dated April 15, 2025); and a $500,000 offer for the Wequiaq Elementary School property. Combined, the three sales total $1,735,000.
Board discussion included an objection from one member who said their “no” vote on Keller reflected a desire to explore additional options to address the district’s affordable-housing needs rather than concerns about the buyer or the price. The member asked whether the board could have taken more time to evaluate nontraditional uses or additional marketable options for the properties.
Vote results - Keller Elementary (commercial offer dated 3/17/2025; counteroffer 4/15/2025): Approved 6–1. Recorded vote indicates one No vote; the board announced the motion carried 6 to 1. - Frable Early Learning Center (offer dated 04/11/2025; counteroffer 4/15/2025): Approved (unanimous roll-call Ayes recorded in the minutes). - Wequiaq Elementary School (offer dated 04/10/2025): Approved 5–2.
The board did not adopt any conditions beyond those reflected in the approved offers and counteroffers presented at the meeting. A board member requested additional time on Wequiaq to investigate potential nontraditional uses for the campus; the board voted to proceed with the sale.
Each sale motion was read into the record and approved by roll-call vote. Final closing dates, contingencies and buyer identities were included in the commercial offers presented to the board but were not restated, in full, during the public discussion recorded in the transcript. Any final closing and transfer of title will follow routine district contracting and conveyance processes.
Votes on these items complete the dispositions presented on the agenda.
