Council authorizes beginning negotiations with county over city hall lease or purchase
Summary
The Bandera City Council voted unanimously to begin negotiations with the county to purchase or renew the lease for the property housing Bandera City Hall at 511 Main and asked staff to contact county officials to determine options and timing.
Council discussed the lease that currently houses Bandera City Hall at 511 Main and asked staff to contact county officials to clarify whether the county intended to renew, repurpose or vacate the facility when the lease ends. A council member moved to begin negotiations to purchase or renew the lease for the tract described in deed records; the motion passed on a unanimous vote.
Council members noted there is time before the lease's expiration (members referenced differing end dates during discussion) and agreed staff should seek specific confirmation from county leadership before any formal purchase or lease agreement is drafted. The city attorney advised council that some terms of any transfer or purchase will require additional legal review and that the resolution or agreement must be properly posted before a waiver of attorney-client privilege would be effective.
