MCSAA will pay $100 per
month to maintain the op-
tion. When the MCSAA de-
cides to exercise it's option
to purchase, it will pay the
PUD $10,000 up front.
"When the purchase is
actually completed, the se-

ing the fair market value
less a 7 percent discount
because we would not be
listing the property with
a realtor," PUD manager
Wyla Wood said. "As far as
we know all of the hurdles

this going."
Wood said that authoriz-

allows the MCSAA to begin
fundraising more actively
for the project.
"I'm pretty satisfied with
how we've moved forward
with this ~nd I think it's an
excellent opportunity for the
senior center to help all of
the seniors in mason county
but also to get fair market
value for a public property,"
commissioner Tom Farmer
said.
