Council sets $35,000 starting asking price for repossessed slab after visitor request
Summary
After a visitor proposed a $25,000 sale price for a town-owned slab, the Darrington Town Council discussed leasing and town costs and approved a $35,000 starting asking price on a unanimous motion.
The Darrington Town Council voted Oct. 8, 2025 to set a $35,000 starting asking price for a town-owned slab that had been repossessed.
Visitor Jim Hale told the council the slab was available and "wants to set a price at $25,000 to sell to someone who wants to put in a building." Councilmembers discussed alternatives including leasing and locating funding to build, and Clerk-Treasurer Dianne Davis identified town cost considerations. Gary Willis moved to set the beginning asking price at $35,000.00; Evan Craig seconded. All in favor; motion carried.
The motion authorized staff to list the property at that starting price. The minutes record no additional terms (for example, lease vs. sale conditions) and do not specify a timeline for sale; those details remain to be determined in a future meeting or staff report.
