Court clarifies Camp Landing land purchase is contingent on appraisal
Summary
The presiding officer said a prior vote to buy land behind Camp Landing (not to exceed $3 million) is conditional on an appraisal; the county will not pay more than an appraised value and is awaiting that appraisal before finalizing the purchase.
In new business the presiding officer clarified the status of a pending land purchase behind Camp Landing previously authorized by the court "not to exceed $3,000,000." He told the court the purchase remains contingent on the appraisal now underway and said the county is not allowed to pay more than the appraised value.
"The purchase of that land depends on the appraisal, that we are currently getting right now," the presiding officer said. "So once that appraisal comes back, we'll know a value. The county is not allowed to essentially purchase land for higher than what an appraised value comes back." He asked whether members had questions about the purchase process; none were raised in the excerpt.
What's next: court staff will await the appraisal result before proceeding with any purchase transaction; the presiding officer said the court would follow its purchase process and return with final valuation information.
