Plans Progress To Sell Kimball Event Center

Resolution Gives City Ability To Sell Facility; Negotiations Continue

The Kimball City Council passed a resolution Dec. 17 giving the city the legal ability to sell the Kimball Event Center. A number of steps must be taken for the sale to occur over the next several weeks or more.

"The Kimball Event Center has not been financially successful for some time" said Dan Dean, city administrator. "The council has been looking to sell the event center" and get it back on the tax rolls for the past three years.

The conditions of the deal between the seller, the city of Kimball, and the potential buyers, Rich and Kelli Patterson of Kimball, are still being negotiated.
