August 9, 2018 Special meeting

Ron Freeman, Bert Lowery, John Unruh, Kristi Cooper and Matt Christenson attended the meeting.

Ron opened the special meeting at 9:00 and the meeting was continued over at the old SRS building across the street where they would meet with the realtor Rita Kurtz with Carr Auction and real estate to look at the building. After doing a walk through they went back to the Commissioner’s room to continue the discussion. Matt called the realtor and asked her to check to see if there were any claims on the roof and to ask permission for our maintenance employee to take a look at the roof and she told them to go ahead and have him check but she would have to check with the owners if there were any claims made.

Break was called from 9:48 till 10:11.

Matt informed them that there is a little cosmetic damage on the roof but didn’t think it would be a big thing with insurance. They discussed making an offer with the building as is and John moved to make an offer of $70,000 and Bert seconded, motion carried 3-0. Matt called Rita and informed her of the offer from the Commissioners. She will call the owners with the offer and will call back once she hears from them. They discussed what their next counter offer would be, and John moved to counter offer with $77,500 and Bert seconded, motion carried 3-0. They will wait for her to call back after 11:00. 

Break was called from 10:31 to 11:00.

Rita called back with a counter offer of $80,000 from the owners and Matt informed her the Commissioners next offer was $77,500 and that they will be adjourning the meeting and that she could call him back with their offer or acceptance.

Meeting adjourned at 11:30.
