Following months of wrangling over a proposed nickel tax to support local schools, the Trigg County Board of Education has now rescinded its resolution seeking the tax.
The Way Christian Youth Center is purchasing some property and buildings from Trigg County Public Schools, a move that will provide extra space for storage and potentially other uses for the center.
The property, 1.28 acres on the west side of the centerâs current facility, includes two metal buildings, one that previously served the school system for Future Farmers of America, and a smaller structure.
During a meeting of the school systemâs District Finance Corporation on Thursday night, its district finance officers approved the sale of the property to the youth center for $50,000. School Board Attorney Jack Lackey said the property has appraised for less than the sale price.
