The Coos County Board of Commissioners approved an order authorizing the sale of county‑owned Carl Road property in Coos Bay to Alternative Youth Activities (AYA) for $750,000 and delegated signing authority to the chair. County counsel said the order (listed in materials as Order 25‑11‑O49L) attaches a standard purchase‑and‑sale agreement and delegates the transactional documents to the chair to finalize title requirements.

Scott, speaking for AYA, described the organization’s planned use: he said the site will be used to house pregnant women and young families and is not intended as general homeless sheltering. "I wanna stop the rumors before, it's gonna be used for pregnant, women and young families," Scott said, adding that AYA works specifically with youth and families.

In discussion, a commissioner noted interest raised during an earlier executive session about AYA wanting access to the property before closing to perform limited improvements. County counsel introduced a late agenda item — a hold‑harmless indemnity and access agreement — to permit AYA to enter the property for maintenance and planning while closing is finalized. Commissioners asked that the access agreement be revised to clarify the scope: evaluation, bidding and planning only, and not for interior repairs until closing and insurance coverage are confirmed. AYA said it intended to bring contractors in to plan and address small exterior issues such as a fallen tree and bathroom/kitchen work but confirmed it did not intend interior work without clearance.

A commissioner moved to approve the order to sell the property and later moved to approve the access agreement with minor revisions clarifying permitted activities; the motions passed (the purchase‑and‑sale order was approved on a voice vote with one commissioner recorded as opposed). The board asked county counsel to ensure the final access agreement referenced the correct property name (Carl Road, not Inglewood) and that insurance certificates meet county requirements.

Scott also reported that AYA has used leftover grant funds from a prior homeless‑response program to provide motel nights and related services for youth and families; he said the organization will file a quarterly report on program spending to the county.

Next steps: county counsel will finalize the purchase‑and‑sale paperwork and the access agreement with the agreed minor revisions; AYA will provide insurance documentation before beginning any on‑site contractor work.
