Mount Orab council approves sellback of village lots amid price discrepancy in the meeting record
Summary
Council moved to approve sellback of Section B, Lot 55 (Lots 1–8). The transcript records an $800-per-lot figure (total $6,400) and later a conflicting figure ($808,100); council recorded affirmative roll-call responses but the recorded price discrepancy requires clerk confirmation.
The Mount Orab Village Council approved a motion to sell back village lots in Section B (Lot 55, Lots 1–8) during the meeting. A council member moved to approve the sellback and the motion was seconded; verbal roll-call affirmations were recorded.
The meeting record contains inconsistent pricing: at one point a council speaker said the price would be $800 per lot (which would total $6,400 for eight lots); shortly afterward a motion statement included the figure "$808,100 dollars a lot," which is inconsistent with the earlier per-lot figure. The transcript does not reconcile the two amounts, and no written sale resolution or deed language was included in the portion of the record provided.
Why it matters: Land sales and the proceeds from lot sales affect village finances and property records; the conflicting figures in the oral record create ambiguity that should be resolved in the official minutes or by village staff.
What’s next: The council recorded verbal affirmations during roll call when the motion was made. The village clerk should publish the final sale price, the purchaser name, and the signed sale documents to clarify the discrepancy.
