The Junction City Commission has directed the city attorney, Katie Logan, to prepare a contract on the proposed sale of city owned property adjacent to Elmdale Avenue.

Sheila Burdett and Mack Henington have offered to pay $52,500 for a 12.6 acre site.

Henington told the city commission, “I own Carpet Masters. I rent the back half of my mother’s building over here on Ninth Street. We’re kind of expanding somewhat.”

The acquistion of the property adjacent to Elmdale Avenue will ennable Henington to build a new building.
