3/31/14 - A vacant building has been a drain on the Fowlerville School District, but officials are now ready to get it off the books. Parkers Corners in Iosco Township has been vacant for more than a decade since the alternative education program was moved to the districtâs main campus. Since then the vacant building has been maintained and insured, costing the district about $1,500 per year. Last week, the Fowlerville School Board authorized Superintendent Wayne Roedel to execute a purchase agreement to return the building and the roughly five acres beneath it back to the Driver Family. The building sits on a half-acre of property leased to the district for $1 in the 1950's by the Drivers, connected to more than four additional acres that were purchased by the district from the family for $1,400. Roedel says the deal to be executed will sell the property back to the family for the same amount as well as end the lease. (TD)
