Board accepts $46,000 sealed bid for district house pending confirmation
Summary
During the April 13 meeting the board opened two sealed bids on a district-owned house and moved to accept a $46,000 offer from Mr. Westerlund pending confirmation; board approved the motion and noted the second-highest bid would be considered if confirmation fails.
The Maple School District board opened two sealed bids for a district-owned house and approved accepting a $46,000 offer from Mr. Westerlund, pending confirmation of funds.
Chair presided over opening of the envelopes and read board staff materials, including a bank letter presented with the lower bid. The board noted a bank letter indicating available funds for a $42,050 bid submitted by Seabert Peterson via agent Mark Gary, while another envelope contained an apparent $46,000 offer from Mr. Westerlund.
A board member moved to accept Mr. Westerlund's $46,000 bid; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. Board members directed administration to confirm the higher bid and, if the $46,000 offer could not be verified, to proceed with the next-highest eligible bid.
The board did not record a roll-call vote on the acceptance; staff will follow up to confirm bidder funds and complete the sale process per district procedures.
