Board tables proposed sale of two lots to Temple of Praise Ministries for $1,000 each
Summary
The board considered a memorandum of understanding to sell two lots to Temple of Praise Ministries for $1,000 per lot and voted to table the item after members raised questions about payment and whether funds had been put down; roll call recorded four yeas and no nays on the motion to table.
The board discussed a memorandum of understanding with Temple of Praise Ministries to transfer two village-owned lots (listed in the agenda by parcel identifiers) for $1,000 apiece. The agenda item listed the lots by parcel numbers and the proposed price of "$1,000 a piece." The board moved to table the item and the clerk announced the motion carried with four yeas and no nays.
During discussion Trustee Griffin objected to transferring property without payment, saying, "This guy's putting no money up. He want property for nothing." Trustees and staff clarified the tabling was to allow verification of payment and terms; one participant stated the thousand dollars "have to be... used before the land is given to him," indicating the board expects proof of payment or use before title transfer.
