Alpine County supervisors are scheduled to discuss the status of the Markleeville Guard Station 9:30 a.m. Tuesday.
The county conveyed property at Turtle Rock Park for a new site for the U.S. Forest Service Station. Alpine residents are seeking the site for the old guard station located next to the administration building for possible expansion of county offices.
County Administrator Pamela Crowell said the forest service is willing to sell the seven acres to the county. Tuesday's discussion will focus on what the property could be used for, and whether the purchase is worth the cost.
