Summary

After discussing timing risks around a near-term VHCB decision, the board voted to request an extension for attorney review and entered executive session to discuss negotiating the real estate purchase or lease option for the Vondell property.

The Woodstock Selectboard voted to ask the Vermont Housing & Conservation Board for an extension to allow local attorneys time to review the Vondell purchase-and-sale and then moved to executive session to discuss negotiation strategy.

A motion to request an extension and to proceed with the purchase-and-sale if one could be secured was made and carried by voice vote. Shortly afterward, the board voted to enter executive session "for the negotiating or securing of real estate purchase or lease option," and later voted to exit that executive session and resume open business.

The motions do not include detailed vote tallies in the transcript; the minutes reflect voice approval. The board directed staff to request the extension and complete attorney review if VHCB grants the additional time, with follow-up reporting to the selectboard.
