REDMOND, Ore. (AP) — The Redmond council has agreed to sell one of the city’s oldest houses for $1.
The Bend Bulletin reports (http://is.gd/jbEGYS ) that developer Roger Lee plans to move the house six blocks and refurbish it into a single-family residence.
The building may have been Redmond’s first schoolhouse. It has been city owned since 2007, when Redmond bought a large section of formerly residential property in the center of the Dry Canyon park system.
While the other homes were demolished, the city spared the historic house, hoping it could be relocated.
