With next month’s deadline approaching for the Fauntleroy Community Services Agency to make a deal with Seattle Public Schools to buy the historic schoolhouse – now that the district’s selling it as “surplus” — here’s the latest update from FCSA, including word of a new possible use for the “back lot,” which previously has been mentioned as a possible development site:
* It has been a rather quiet month, with negotiations and discussions progressing. There is not a lot to report at this time.
* Negotiations with the District are still underway, although they slowed down in the past month, due to vacation schedules.
* The deadline to reach a purchase and sale agreement is still August, although we remain confident that as long as all parties are moving forward in good faith, there should be some leeway with that date.
* There are some very beginning conversations with King County about possible siting of a combined sewer overflow underground holding tank in the back lot. This was raised in the past week, so this is very vague at this
time.* The formal application for landmark designation should be complete with the next few weeks – we will let you know when it is submitted and scheduled for hearing by the Landmarks Board.
