REEDSVILLE — During a special meeting, Reedsville Council unanimously voted to purchase the approximately one-quarter to one-half acres of property at 215 S. Robert Stone Way and the parcel next to it towards the S turn.
The property would cost the town $45,000.
This is a change from the March 2019 meeting, when council voted unanimously not to purchase the lot next to town hall for $50,000.
At that time, council considered buying it and using it as a parking lot.
Council members voted Friday to put $10,000 down and get a loan from Clear Mountain Bank to cover the remaining $35,000.
It was determined the lease/loan would need to include a sunset clause and non-appropriation language.
Jeff Stone made the motion to get a loan from Clear Mountain Bank. Scott Williams seconded the motion.
The next regular meeting of the Reedsville Town council will be 6:30 p.m. June 22.
