Georgetown ISD moves forward with 10.01-acre land purchase

Georgetown ISD officials greenlit the purchase of 10.01 acres in the district's northwest quadrant Feb. 3, potentially for a future high school site and other district facilities.

District documents show the purchase comes alongside a development agreement as the district completes a 110 acre parcel of property.

What you need to know

Trustees approved the agreement, allowing administrators to close on the property for the purchase and exchange contracts, as well as the development agreement, per district documents.

What they're saying

The district has not yet shared the total purchase price of the 10.1 acres of property, or its exact location, as details are in the process of being finalized.

Superintendent Devin Padavil said that the property could be home to a future high school, as well as other district facilities.

How we got here

This comes about six months after the district purchased just over 11 acres of property in the district's northwest, also to be used for a future school site, as reported by Community Impact.
