Dorr Township to buy new town hall

The agenda for Tuesday night's Dorr Township monthly meeting includes an Executive Session, followed by agenda items to discuss and take action on two motions related to a purchase of real property:

12. Discussion and action on ordinance regarding purchase of a building for use as a township hall.
A) Motion to authorize execution of offer to purchase under the terms of a Real Estate Contract.
B) Motion to approve $1,000 as earnest money for purchase of real property pursuant to offer to purchase under terms of a Real Estate Contract.

This may be the same deal that they tried to fly under the radar, but a resident started asking questions at a meeting about a $1,000 earnest money payment, and the check got canceled before it got cashed. There is a certain way that public bodies have to do business now, and Dorr residents ought to be happy and proud that a few concerned residents are keeping a close eye on the cookie jar.

More interested residents are needed at every public meeting. The next one is Tuesday, March 8, 7:30PM, at 140 Newell St., Woodstock.
