Summary

The board unanimously authorized Superintendent Scotty Carman to negotiate acquisition of two properties—the old community center (possible donation contingent on abatement/demolition) and land behind the CTE building (prior $36,000 offer rejected)—and to seek appraisal or real‑estate/title assistance.

Under agenda item 8B, the board discussed two potential property actions: an offer from the Winkler County judge regarding the old community center parcel and a rejected offer on land behind the CTE building. The minutes say the county judge indicated the commissioners might donate the community center property if the district would abate and demolish the building. For the parcel behind the CTE building, the seller rejected a $36,000 offer and indicated a possible trade involving an RV property.

Trustee Clayton Hawkins moved that the board give the superintendent authority to negotiate for purchase/acquisition of the discussed real property and to seek assistance from a licensed appraiser, real estate broker or title company as needed; Trustee Chad Evans seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. The board recorded this authorization under agenda item 8B; the motion directs administration to pursue negotiations and professional assistance but does not obligate the district to purchase either property.
