District updates board on ISD 318 administration building sale, surplus disposition and construction outage
Summary
Staff reported receipt of a city purchase agreement for the ISD 318 administration building, described plans for a three-day sale of surplus items, records-room consolidation, relocation of playground equipment to Big Fork, and warned of a planned power/Internet outage tied to high‑school construction work.
S1 updated the board on the ISD 318 administration building transaction, saying the district received a purchase agreement from the city that is higher than a prior offer and that staff are resolving contract details with district staff (Mitch and Rob). S1 said the district is under a listing agreement and hopes to smooth outstanding language so the contract can come before the board at the next meeting.
As part of the transition, S1 said the district plans a three-day sale (Wednesday through Friday) to dispose of gym and administration-office items; items not sold will be discarded. S1 said older records have been scanned where possible and that a hall room has been repurposed as a records room to consolidate documents requiring long-term retention.
S1 said playground equipment and a canopy from the administration site will be moved to Big Fork. The storage building will be relocated to a tar patch on the site and will also be used for early‑childhood family events. Board members asked about permits and parking; S1 said required permits will be obtained and that parking needs are covered.
S1 also notified the board that high-school construction work will require killing power to the building on Friday, which will disrupt phones and Internet districtwide; staff have notified affected parties. The group discussed an East property swap with the city, questions about wetland or swampy areas, and recalled prior bat-protection issues that previously limited development of certain parcels.
S3 called for other business and adjourned the meeting.
