Superintendent introduces plan to offer Claymont Intermediate building for sale or auction
Summary
Superintendent Brian Rentsch introduced two real‑estate representatives and said the district plans to offer the Claymont Intermediate building to eligible community/charter non‑public schools first and hopes to sell before winter; he said an auction timeline would be at least 60 days.
Superintendent Brian Rentsch told the board on May 11 that the district is pursuing representation to sell the Claymont Intermediate building and introduced Amy Myer of The Barnett Realtors and Bob Hall of Cronebaugh Auction as potential agents. He said state procedures require offering the building first to any community school or chartered non‑public school in the district; there are none in Claymont City, he said.
Rentsch said the district "would like to sell the building before winter to save on costs," and that an auction timeline would be at least 60 days. The presentation was informational; the board did not take a final vote on a sale during the meeting and no formal listing or contract award was recorded in the minutes.
Administrators and board members discussed timing and the need to follow statutory offer requirements to local community or chartered non‑public schools before a sale or auction proceeds.
