The transfer includes a payment of a dollar and use of facilities at the future Neenah Creek Park being developed behind the new Tech High School site. The district also made repairs to Clark Field over the summer including fixing a broken portion in one of the granite walls.

The city already approved the purchase agreement back in October. A tentative closing is set for Friday.
