The property has been declared to be surplus to the needs of the State. The proceeds of the sale will be deposited into the fund created by law which requires that the deposits be used for the relief of State debt or to assist in funding capital improvement projects. The State House Commission will set the terms and conditions of sale. The property has been appraised and negotiated to be sold at a price of $850,000 as a direct sale to the Town of Morristown.
