GSL Board takes care of glitch in land sale to Brownton

The Glencoe-Silver Lake (GSL) School Board tied up loose ends from the sale of the district’s school property in Brownton at the regular meeting last night.
The GSL District obtained the land when the former McLeod West School District dissolved and the former Brownton district, which was a partner with Stewart in the McLeod West district, became part of GSL.
The sale of the school property to the city of Brownton was originally approved in 2009. The resolution from the board, however, lacked necessary descriptions for the sale. With the missing descriptions, the district only sold a part of the land, the baseball field, to the city.
The issue was discovered by the McLeod County assessor. Business Manager Michelle Sander explained the board needs to approve a new resolution to sell in order to make the sale official.
“So it’s just something that we’ve already done but now we’re going to put a period behind the sentence,” Board Member Kevin Kuester said.
Board Member Donna VonBerge asked if the district had been paying property taxes on the land, but Sander explained both the district and the city are tax-exempt.
The board approved the resolution.
