Vice‑Mayor Bryan McCarter told the commission the Intergovernmental and Budget Committees approved options to pursue two parcels in Seymour for a potential recreation park. He said one parcel is under option at about 16.5 acres and that combined acreage could be roughly 34 acres. McCarter said negotiations reduced one parcel’s asking price from over $450,000 to $355,000.
Commissioner Dustin Weaver added that one parcel currently has about thirty storage units and that half are rented; Weaver suggested dividing and selling the storage units could recoup a significant portion of the purchase price. The commission approved authorization to proceed with the purchase process by roll call.
