Director Smith asked the board to amend prior signature authority to allocate $3,500,000 (up from the $3,400,000 previously authorized) to complete a purchase of 7.5 acres at Oxford Vista in partnership with the Aurora Housing Authority; staff said original appraisal was $3.4M, a separate land-trust appraisal was $3.59M and staff negotiated to $3.5M. The board indicated consensus (five thumbs up) to move the $3.5M authorization to the consent agenda and proceed toward a fall closing.
