Carter County votes to buy 129 Judge Don Lewis Blvd. in Elizabethton for $1 million
Summary
After the county attorney said conditions were met, the commission voted unanimously to proceed with purchase of 129 Judge Don Lewis Blvd.; the signed purchase agreement in the packet sets the price at $1,000,000 and outlines standard closing and diligence provisions.
The Carter County Commission on Feb. 17 approved proceeding with the purchase of property located at 129 Judge Don Lewis Blvd., Elizabethton, after County Attorney Josh Hardin reported that purchase conditions had been met.
The motion (moved by Nick Holder and seconded by Charlene Thomas) passed unanimously by recorded electronic vote. The meeting packet included a detailed Purchase and Sale Agreement stating a purchase price of $1,000,000, a deposit of $10,000 to the title company, typical title‑commitment and survey provisions, an inspection (diligence) period through March 20, 2026, and an “as‑is” sale clause. The agreement assigns certain responsibilities for closing costs, prorations and title insurance, and allows for standard termination rights tied to title or inspection objections.
Attorney Hardin’s summary to the commission said required conditions for the purchase had been met; the full contract text in the packet lists closing mechanics, representations from the seller, and procedures for delivering the deed and closing documents. The minutes do not record discussion of intended county uses for the property nor a funding source for the purchase in the excerpt provided.
