Board authorizes appraisal of property adjacent to Big Sandy School
Summary
The Bay County Board of Education authorized staff to obtain an appraisal on a parcel immediately north of Big Sandy School (less than a half-acre) after discussion about resolving a boundary and nuisance issue; the board approved the action by voice vote.
The Bay County Board of Education authorized district staff to obtain an appraisal of a parcel immediately north of Big Sandy School, asking staff to report back with the appraisal amount and recommendation.
The property in question is described in the meeting as a parcel of under half an acre that currently contains a mobile home and a garage. The district purchased adjoining property previously, and attendees said the small parcel has presented boundary and traffic-nuisance concerns. A board member noted the current occupant is interested in selling and that having the adjoining parcel appraised could help clarify the northern boundary of the school property.
Mister Hall (as cited in the discussion) recommended obtaining an appraisal; the board moved and seconded to authorize district staff to pursue the appraisal. The board voted by voice — members answered "aye" and the chair announced the motion carried.
Board members said they would consider the appraisal report and potential next steps, including whether removal of the mobile home or use of the existing garage for storage would be practical options.
