Summary

After an executive-session deliberation under KRS 61.810(1)(b), the Dayton City Council approved a motion authorizing the mayor to sign a contract to sell 949 Walnut St to Elizabeth McGan and James Crawford for $12,000, contingent on a certificate of occupancy for an adjacent structure within two years.

Following a closed executive session under KRS 61.810(1)(b) to discuss potential sale of real property, the Dayton City Council on Dec. 9 voted to authorize the mayor to sign a contract selling 949 Walnut St to Elizabeth McGan and James Crawford for $12,000 subject to a contingency that construction of the structure on the adjacent property obtain a certificate of occupancy within two years.

Member Neary moved to authorize the mayor to sign the contract and Member Judd seconded. The motion carried on a recorded vote of the members present. The minutes show the council entered executive session under the cited Kentucky statute before the vote and returned to open session at 8:16 p.m.

The minutes record the purchase price and the two-year certificate-of-occupancy contingency but do not provide additional terms such as closing date, escrow instructions, or whether any city liens or encumbrances were addressed. The council did not include public comment on the sale during the open meeting and provided no further details in the minutes about purchaser qualifications or intended use of the property.

The mayor was authorized to execute the contract consistent with the contingency outlined in the council motion.
