Purpose, price, or location of land remains unclear | College has increased variable capital fund from $2.2 Million to $4 million in anticipation of purchase
Yavapai Community College is apparently preparing to purchase additional land to expand its footprint in Prescott Valley. The purchase was initially approved in a closed public meeting in October, according to Vice President of Finance and Administrative Service Dr. Clint Ewell. Dr. Ewell briefly alluded to the purchase at the February 22, 2022 Governing Board meeting. (See video clip below.)
To support the purchase of the land, Dr. Ewell explained that the Variable Capital budget had been increased from $2.2 million to $4 million. (See video clip below.)
How the land will be used, its exact purchase price, or location is unknown to the public at this time. It is anticipated that more will be learned about this land purchase at the March 2022 Governing Board meeting.
