Und purchase finalized,
Campus grows by 62 acres
^Oavid Proffitt
The UNCA campus is now 62
^^res larger with the official
]^losing of a land purchase
Tuesday afternoon.
We have finalized the deal,"
®sid B. Paul Goodman, who sold
land to the state for $1
*®illion, or about $16,130 an
acre.
The additional acreage brings
WilU® to 262 acres, said
^ Pott, vice chancellor
for finance.
The land was bought to take
imof long-range plans at
^CA, said Pott.
t#T- ,
will probably be several
years before we begin building
^ything on it, but there is
oom for things like more dor-
tories and a continuing edu-
'^tion center."
Pott said the tract is prime
^^operty, "and is composed of
ridges with outstanding
^^ews of UNCA, the French Broad
and Grove Park Inn.
** T t
it s completely undeveloped
”tk wooded," said Pott,
here are no buildings of any
kind on it."
The only accessible route to
the property now is via a road
that requires a four-wheel drive
vehicle, he said.
"So the first things will be
utilities and a road," said
Pott.
He said the negotiations moved
unusually quickly for such a
purchase.
"It’s been less than a year
since negotiations began," said
Pott.
"We had the cooperation of
everyone involved, the UNCA
Board of Trustees, the UNC Board
of Governors, the general admin
istration staff at UNC-Chapel
Hill, the State Property Office,
the state attorney general’s
office, the State Council, and,
of course, Mr. Goodman," said
Pott.
Goodman said that he is pleas
ed with the deal.
"If I wasn’t happy with it, I
wouldn’t have done it. And if I
hadn’t sold it to the state, I
would’ve probably developed it
for condos," he said.
