Excerpt: Monday night, the Hudson City Council authorized Mayor Dean Knudson to sign documents finalizing the city’s purchase of the Nuclear Management Co. property for $2.5 million.

The unanimous decision makes it nearly certain that the Hudson Area Joint Library and the Hudson Police Department will be moving into the former corporate headquarters building at 700 First St. in 2010.

The library board must reapprove a slightly modified lease agreement and a minor property title issue has to be resolved before the deal can be finalized.

The board is expected to approve the amended lease when it meets next Monday night.
