(KAIR)--Finalization of necessary procedures for Atchison County to sale its long term care facility to an outside firm has been completed.
That happened Wednesday, during a special meeting of the Atchison County Commission, where details regarding the sale of Atchison Senior Village were ironed out.
County Counselor Patrick Henderson explained legal aspects regarding the move, including the need for a resolution approving the $1.6 million sale , with that resolution then read aloud by Commission Chair Casey Quinn.
Once Quinn had completed reading the resolution in full, her motion of approval was moved, seconded, and approved, meaning the sale becomes effective Friday, March 1.
The Commission has, for some months, been in discussion with the California-based Ensign Group, Inc., to purchase the 45-bed skilled nursing facility, located at 1419 North 6th Street, in Atchison. According to special meeting discussion, the new owners are expected to release further details regarding the acquisition in the near future.
