III.A.1. Discuss, consider and take all necessary action with regard to possible approval and authorization to execute a real estate purchase agreement for the purchase by the school district of the real estate located at 2023 Colfax Street, Schuyler, Nebraska.
Rationale:
The school district was approached by EHC Schuyler Realty, LLC about our interest in the purchase of the vacated nursing home at 2023 Colfax Street. The facility was closed in March of 2019. The facility was sold for $1,600,000 and is currently assessed at $1,200,000. The purchase price for the building with contents is $700,000 ($22,50 per sq ft.). The cash we will use for the purchase is $700,000 of the $1,200,000 bond premium (cash above the sale of the bonds) as outlined in our 2018-19 audit report. This money will be replaced over the next two fiscal years through the State Aid TWO-YEAR NEW SCHOOL ADJUSTMENT:
1st year District Basic Funding per formula student X (.20 X Estimated Student Capacity) 2nd year District Basic Funding per formula student X(.10 X Estimated Student Capacity) The 31,127 sq. ft. facility would make it possible to make additional space in our current middle and high school buildings, create centralization of district wide programs, personnel and storage, provide space for special education and alternative education services, central meeting space for district level and professional development training, and technology support services. In addition, we would be able to plan to host joint ventures in early childhood, daycare, and Dual Language program expansion in the future. Attached below is detailed information about the property.
