January ll, 2000 <br /> <br />[CABARIIUS COUNTYl <br /> <br />N O[~Tlt CAf]OtlNA <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: Board of Commissioners <br /> <br />RE: Sale; Upset Bid Process <br /> Old Harrisburg School Site <br /> <br />Construction progresses on the replacement for Harrisburg Elementary School. It is scheduled to <br />be completed in August 2000. <br /> <br />The School Board has acted to transfer ownership of the old Harrisburg School site to the County <br />effective its vacated date of occupancy by students. <br /> <br />When the County Commission expanded the available funding to complete the replacement <br />school for Harrisburg (see attached memo from Blair Bennett), it was the Board's direction at <br />that time that the property be sold when available. <br /> <br />Staff is requesting the Board's authorization to proceed with all necessary steps up to and <br />including advertising the property for upset bids. Several different individuals have indicated an <br />interest in the property. <br /> <br />There are several steps that need to be pursued (title, surveys, etc.). Once a first bid is received, <br />the County Commission will authorize the upset bid process to continue until the final highest <br />bid is received. <br /> <br />With your authorization, staff will undertake all the necessary steps to proceed. It is certain that <br />"possession" by any new owner will not occur until the students have vacated the facility. <br /> <br />Respectfully, <br /> <br />County Manager <br /> <br />FWC/sb <br />cc: Dr. Harold Winkler <br /> Fletcher L. Hartsell, Jr. <br /> <br />Office of the County Manager <br /> <br /> <br />
