Supervisors assign county-held tax-sale certificate to City of Dallas for Masonic Lodge property
Summary
Wright County approved assigning a county-held tax-sale certificate to the City of Dallas for a deteriorated Masonic Lodge property, with discussion of potential Brownfield funding and renovation viability.
Treasurer (speaker 6) asked supervisors to approve assignment of a county-held tax-sale certificate to the City of Dallas for a Masonic Lodge property in disrepair. The city indicated interest in stabilizing or renovating the building but acknowledged renovation costs could be significant.
Board discussion covered possible Brownfield grants and the city's desire to preserve the façade rather than leave an empty lot. Speakers noted that renovation could require substantial funds and recommended exploring grant options in early 2027; no firm funding commitment was made by the county. The board moved, seconded and approved assignment of the certificate by voice vote.
