Commissioner O ' Bryan felt the $ 900 , 000 counteroffer was more in accordance with the <br /> County ' s appraised value of the parcel than the $ 800 , 000 suggested by Vice Chairman Wheeler . <br /> The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION , and by a 2 - 3 <br /> vote ( Commissioners Davis , Flescher, and O ' Bryan <br /> opposed ) the Motion FAILED . <br /> Attorney DeBraal clarified for the Board that the due diligence and closing could be done <br /> in thirty days , and that there would be a Phase I Site Inspection Environmental Study prior to the <br /> closing . <br /> MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Flescher, <br /> SECONDED by Commissioner Davis , to make a final <br /> counter offer of $ 90000 to SunTrust Bank for purchase <br /> of the former Sun Sky Roofing Parcel , with the closing <br /> date to be scheduled within thirty days of the contract; <br /> and to authorize the Chairman to execute a counter offer <br /> of $ 900 , 000 to the contract with SunTrust . <br /> Under discussion , Vice Chairman Wheeler declared that the transaction is a business <br /> deal , not an eminent domain acquisition , and that the County could do better . He pointed out <br /> that the property is not in a good location and that many foreclosed properties have been selling <br /> at greatly reduced values , and maintained that SunTrust would accept an $ 800 , 000 counteroffer . <br /> Chairman Solari remarked that after hearing Vice Chairman Wheeler ' s comments , he had <br /> revised his stance . <br /> May 17 , 2011 22 <br />
