BACKGROUND
Gaston County is committed to retaining property only in instances where said property is in use or is part of the long range Facility Master Plan. On rare occasions, Gaston County obtains property as a result of delinquent tax liens or identifies property no longer essential to the overall mission and operations. As these properties are identified, staff requests the Board of Commissioners to declare those parcels surplus. The following County-owned parcel has been identified as available for surplus: PID#203783 located at 2005 Beauhaven Lane, Belmont, NC 28012. Approval of this Board Action declares the above described property as surplus and authorizes staff to market the property with others already on the surplus property list. Such marketing may include advertising and selecting a listing agent, listing on an internet auction site, listing with a local auction firm, or listing on the County website and/or local media to encourage direct offers. Further, this Board Action authorizes the County Manager to sign any necessary listing or auction contracts for marketing purposes. Reasonable offers will be presented to the Board of Commissioners at subsequent meetings for offer acceptance and approval to enter into an upset bid process. Pursuant to NCGS 160A-270, highest and best bids as a result of upset bids will then be brought to the Board of Commissioners for final acceptance or rejection.
