Redwater ISD board authorizes purchase of Texarkana property at 110 Redwater Blvd

At a special meeting on Aug. 11, 2025, the Redwater ISD board voted 5-0 to authorize the purchase of real property located at 110 Redwater Blvd, Texarkana, Texas 75501. "I move the Board authorize the Superintendent to purchase the real property more fully described in the Board's Agenda Item IV.A. as discussed in closed session and further approve the Resolution Authorizing the Purchase of Real Property as presented by Administration," said Jerry McCarty II as he moved the motion.

The motion was seconded by Bryan Strand and passed unanimously by the five members present; Ricky Morrow and Brad Rosiek were recorded as absent. The vote was recorded as: Skip Bryan — Yea; Clint Duncan — Yea; Jerry McCarty II — Yea; Sarah Robinson — Yea; Bryan Strand — Yea. The board approved a resolution that delegates authority to the superintendent and/or her designee to make offers, negotiate a contract, conduct professional reviews of the property, and execute the purchase agreement.

The property is described in the Real Property Records of Bowie County, Volume 5930, Pages 45-48. The board held an executive session before taking action, citing Texas Government Code Section 551.072 (real property), Section 551.074 (personnel matters), and Section 551.071 (consultation with attorney). The agenda did not specify funding sources or a purchase price in the public record; those details were not stated in the meeting transcript.

Next steps identified in the approved resolution delegate to the superintendent authority to proceed with offers, professional reviews and contract execution; the transcript records that the superintendent or her designee is authorized to complete those tasks but does not name a specific individual or provide a timetable for closing.
