The Washington County Board of Education voted down a motion Monday to make a counter offer to a prospective buyer for the old Boones Creek Middle School property.
The board was told an undisclosed buyer had offered $1.2 million for the 12-acre site, where board members have already agreed to demolish the vacant school building later this month.
School board member Mike Masters made a motion to offer a $1.375 million purchase price to the buyer, which would cover the countyâs cost for that demolition work.
Board member Keith Ervin said he preferred âto tear downâ the old building and put the property âback on the market.â
