Later this week, the College Station school board and city council will act on selling the city conference center as part of the school district’s expansion of its alternative school.

The sale price, according to the city, is $788,430 dollars.

Voters in CSISD approved a bond issue last November that includes buying the conference center property to build part of the district’s new center for alternative learning, which is slated to open in August 2015.

The board is being asked to spend $2.3 million dollars for 14.93 acres of land where elementary school nine will be built. It’s located west of Castlegate along what will be Wallis S. Phillips Parkway, near William D. Fitch. In a board memo, superintendent Eddie Coulson says this location will take pressure off increasing populations at Greens Prairie and Creek View elementaries.
