CURRENT LOT SALE RESULTS
On August 6, 2003 at 10
a.m. a lot option lottery was held at the City of Great Bend Council Chambers.
There were a total of twenty-two pre-enrollments in the lottery. All enrollments
resulted in the sale of lot options for a total of twenty-two lots. Of the
lot options sold sixteen (16) were for $12,500, three (3) were $10,500, and
three (3) were $19,500 (the fourth and final $19,500 lot option was sold immediately
following the lottery). The total cost of all lot options purchased was $309,500.
After August 6th lot options for the remaining lots were made available for
purchase on a first come basis. Of the remaining lots options twelve (12)
were sold for $12,500 and two (2) were sold for $10,500. Counting the lottery
and subsequent lot option sales, a total of 37 lots were sold for a grand
total of $467,000. Since this amount exceeded the total amount of private
funds needed ($461,000) for the City of Great Bend to exercise its own option
on the entire plot of land for the proposed subdivision and cemetery, authorization
was given to Mayor Allison by the Great Bend City Council to sign all legal
documents exercising the 90-day option.
As the City of Great Bend moves forward with development efforts, they will
continue to sell options on the remaining lots. There are still 12 lots remaining
in the initial development phase of Amber Meadows. Those interested in purchasing
one of the remaining lots should contact the Great Bend City Attorney Bob
Suelter at (620) 793-4111.
