Board accepts $40,000 high bid for Gulfshed property; buyer plans local welding shop
Summary
Following a closed session, the board accepted a $40,000 high bid for the Gulfshed property. The successful bidder, identified in the record as Jason Coolers, said he will use the building for welding and light manufacturing.
After returning from closed session, the Wright County Board of Supervisors voted to accept the high bid of $40,000 for the Gulfshed property and awarded the sale to Jason Coolers. The board asked staff and the county attorney to finalize next steps and paperwork to effect the sale.
During public remarks after the award, the buyer described his intended use: "The main use of the building is gonna be for my welding and man manufacturing operation that I've had, currently set up now in Dallas. I'm in the process of, presently, closing down and moving," and said he hoped to centralize operations and serve local customers in Belmont and surrounding areas. Trustees congratulated him and discussed coordinating possession and paperwork with the county attorney and staff.
