Summary
After an executive session, the Bristol Real Estate Committee voted to accept a $42,000 offer for 135 East Main Street and to forward the offer to city council; members noted a separate $60,000 offer had been made and that the sale will proceed to council review.
The Bristol Real Estate Committee voted to accept an offer of $42,000 for the property at 135 East Main Street and to forward the sale to the city council for final action. The motion was made by a committee member (speaker 6), seconded, and approved by voice vote after the committee met in executive session to discuss negotiated terms.
Committee members said they would inform council about a competing $60,000 offer that had also been reported during the executive-session discussion. Committee member (speaker 6) introduced the motion to accept the $42,000 offer and send the matter to council; the motion passed on an affirmative voice vote with the chair recording an aye.
The meeting returned to open session before members moved on. Chair (speaker 2) noted, colloquially, that the upcoming city council consideration would be “a fun city council,” reflecting anticipated debate at the next step. The committee did not record a detailed roll-call tally in the transcript; members confirmed the motion carried by voice vote.
Next steps: the committee will forward the accepted offer and associated paperwork to city council for its consideration and any further direction.
