Summary
The Vidor ISD board approved acquisition of 0.0327 acres of property on Freeway Drive for $20,000 to construct a queuing lane at Vidar Middle School; trustees approved the purchase 5‑0 after staff clarified a decimal transcription error in the acreage.
The Vidor ISD Board of Trustees on July 28 approved the acquisition of 0.0327 acres of land on Freeway Drive for $20,000 to create a parent queuing lane at Vidar Middle School. The purchase was described as a transparency item though the amount is below the usual approval threshold.
District staff told trustees the small parcel will allow the district to construct a queuing lane across the front of Vidar Middle School and tie into the driveway; staff clarified the correct acreage after an earlier decimal placement error in the paperwork. Trustee Harrington moved to approve the purchase; Trustee McPaine seconded. The motion passed 5‑0 with two trustees absent.
What happens next: staff will complete the acquisition paperwork and proceed with design and construction as part of the bond construction activities affecting Vidar Middle School’s traffic flow.
