Board approves sale of three county properties on Lawsonville Avenue for $286,000
Summary
After a public notice period with no upset bids, the Rockingham County Schools board approved the sale of property at 212 Lawsonville Avenue (and adjacent parcels) under a contract for $286,000.
The Rockingham County Schools board approved a contract on July 12 to sell three parcels (including 212 Lawsonville Avenue) after the district posted public notice and received no upset bids.
Operations staff told the board the property sale resulted from a posted notice that ran from June 19 to June 29; staff reported a contract was in hand as of July 12 for $286,000. The board moved, seconded and approved the sale by voice vote.
Why it matters: The transaction frees district property and converts unused parcels to a contract sale, potentially affecting local tax rolls and creating proceeds available for district use. The board did not record a roll‑call tally in the minutes excerpted in the transcript.
Next steps: Staff will finalize the contract and proceed with conveyance according to the approved terms.
