Coffee County board approves purchase of 0.49-acre Trojan Way parcel for $50,000
Summary
The Coffee County Board of Education approved buying a 0.49-acre triangular parcel on Trojan Way off Highway 441 for $50,000, to be paid from East Bloss funds, and said the parcel will be used for signage near Coffee High School and the Board of Education office.
The Coffee County Board of Education voted to purchase a 0.49-acre parcel on Trojan Way off Highway 441 for $50,000, a board member announced during the regular meeting.
An unidentified speaker described the lot as “a little less than half an acre right there on 441” and said the district would use the site for appropriate signage near Coffee High School and the Board of Education office. The same speaker told the board the district would fund the purchase with East Bloss funds.
Board members moved and seconded the recommendation; the chair called for 'all in favor' and the motion was recorded as passed in open session. The transcript does not include a roll-call vote tally or the sellers’ names.
The board characterized the parcel as a narrow, triangular sliver of land that will accommodate signage identifying the school system and board office. No further details about site preparation, easements, or closing timelines were provided in the meeting record.
The board also discussed the consent agenda and other business later in the meeting; this land-purchase motion was pulled out of a larger agenda item and considered as a separate vote at the board’s request.
