The Coffey County Board of Commissioners on Nov. 4 authorized a six‑month exclusive commercial listing agreement with TrustPoint (transaction broker) for county property at 405 Neosho Street, Burlington, and approved a notice of public hearing on the proposed sale for Dec. 1, 2025.

Staff presented a revised commercial listing agreement that included a six‑month term, MLS listing and a recommended listing price of $175,000. Commissioners moved to authorize the chairman to sign the exclusive right‑to‑sell listing and to publish a public hearing notice; the board approved both motions and set publication dates for Nov. 6 and Nov. 13, 2025 and the hearing for Dec. 1 at 10 a.m.

The board also finalized two surplus property sales that were conducted by live in‑person and online auction. For 824 North Fourth Street, Burlington, county staff reported a highest bid of $80,000 submitted at auction (buyer identified as Diana Stutzman of MT Networks). The board authorized the chairman to sign the purchase contract, accepted the $10,000 earnest money to be held by Coffeyland Title, and adopted Resolution No. 2020‑5961 conveying the property; the purchase agreement set a closing no later than Dec. 2.

For 538 North C Street, Leroy, the auction’s high bid was $56,000 (buyer identified as Laura Burke, DLV Properties). Commissioners authorized the chairman to sign the purchase contract and adopted Resolution No. 2020‑5962 to convey the property.

Each sale followed the public‑notice process and the auction method previously authorized by the board; the board recorded motions and carried votes for the contracts and resolutions.

Ending: The county moved forward with listing 405 Neosho for sale and completed the formal sale process for two surplus properties; proceeds are to be deposited in the county general fund per statutory guidance.
