After closed-session deliberations, the court approved conveyance of 0.189 acres to a buyer for $1 (county to cover closing costs up to $5,000) and authorized purchase of 9.959 acres from Aramark for $39,008.36 with earnest money of $3,983.60 and closing cost authorization up to $7,500 from tourism funds.
Following a closed session to deliberate real estate matters, the court reconvened and approved two transactions. First, the court accepted a purchase agreement conveying approximately 0.189 acres to an individual referred to in the record as 'Mr. JP Bridal' for a purchase price of $1; the court authorized payment of closing costs (survey, title policy, etc.) up to $5,000 from hot funds, while taxes up to closing remain the buyer's responsibility.
Second, the court approved acquisition of about 9.959 acres in South Brewster County (the intersection of 118 and 170) from Aramark Sports and Entertainment Services for $39,008.36; the court authorized payment of earnest money of $3,983.60 to Ellison Abstract and approved up to $7,500 in closing costs to be paid from tourism funds. Commissioners amended motions to include purchase orders and to account for land-acquisition bookkeeping. Both motions passed by voice vote.
