The members of the Orland Secondary School Secondary School decided to actively stop selling a property of an area of 36 acres on South 108 Street, although the board of directors sets a sale price in June and after some members of the Board of Directors expressed their urgency to sell a lot.
The School Council aims to sell a Willow Grow, which includes the maintenance department in the province, in order to purchase a listed property of $ 3.2 million in 10608 W. 163rd St. Orland Park, for use by the maintenance department and other needs.
In July, many Board of Board of District 230 said it is important to sell Willow Grove Acres soon, as the boycott wants to buy West 163rd Street while still available.
But Jennifer Waterman, Province Director of Telecom 230, said that the members of the Board of Directors decided that they wanted more time to make an enlightened decision on the feasibility about what the new property could use and the costs that the boycott could bear.
The Board of Directors set the price of the Willow Grow at a price of less than 2.68 million dollars, in the event of a decision to sell it, but they stopped taking measures on any of the real estate.
Waterman said the discussions are continuing and that decisions related to ownership are intertwined.
Member of the Board of Directors, Mohamed Jaber, said that the residents at a meeting of a committee raised great concerns about the need to sell a lot in order to buy the other.
But other members of the Board of Directors pushed back, saying that there is support for sale.
Board Member Tony Cerator said that the majority of people attending the construction and finance committee meeting agreed that the boycott should sell Willo Group and buy the piece on Street 163.
“I do not want to disagree with you, but I was also at this meeting, and I had a number of people who were sitting next to me that also spoke,” Cerator told Jaber at the board meeting on Thursday.
The Board of Directors conducted a joint evaluation with Orland Elementary District 135 in early June due to a possible direct sale. The joint evaluation was conducted by the Collens Real Estate Advisors with a market value of $ 2.57 million.
Waterman said the council conducted another evaluation in July, due to interest in a second opinion. This evaluation by Associations has given a market value of about $ 2.68 million.
Waterman said that two evaluations can differ because the appraisers use different ways, choose different comparative properties and apply their professional judgment, all of which provide contrast. She said that factors such as timing, market conditions, purpose of evaluation and organizational or environmental considerations also play important roles in producing various evaluation results.
Supervisor Robert Noling said in July that the area aimed at selling Willo Group because the maintenance department operates from a house built in the 1960s without electricity, gas or drinking water.
In addition to providing a better facility for the maintenance department, the new real estate can also include five to six programs, such as adult learning program, alternative learning for students who struggle and professional preparation, Nolting said.
“We pay a lot of money for these programs, and we think we can seize this money,” Nolting said. “But our hope is to provide a minimum property key to our maintenance section than it was now.”
The 230th region consists of Karl Sandberg Secondary School in Orland Park, and Victor J. Andrew high school in Tenley Park and Amos Alonzo Stag School in Hills Palos.
The Willow Grow features four structures: two warehouse, storage and accommodation building, all of which were built between 1960 and 2006. According to the evaluation of June, the storage building has obtained the slightest classification of the condition, poor, indicating that in bad condition, while other structures receive degrees, average, and conditions.
Braik said that the 135th region was interested in buying the property last May due to concerns about the current and future housing developments in the region. He said that the provincial council 135 wants to ensure that the area has a space to accommodate the increased registration of students.
Region manager 135 John Praray said in July that he hopes to decide the boycott in the next few months.
“It is much easier to have a property when you need it instead of looking for it when you need it,” Braik said.
