The purchase does not include the campground or the area where the motel was. Commissioner Sullivan emphasized that this will start the due diligence period. The meeting agenda below includes Budget Amendment 21-21 to take a $3,000,000 loan and pay $259,000 from the BPART Fund, which includes $9000 for a commercial appraisal.
