Board approves sealed-bid sale for conservation building; sealed bids to open July 28

The board voted to post the conservation building for sealed bids with a minimum 30-day published notice and to open sealed bids on July 28, providing the public an opportunity to bid. During discussion the transcript records an appraisal amount cited as "$1.90"; the board clarified that sealed bids below the appraisal would not necessarily be accepted and that the sealed-bid process is intended to create a transparent public offering.

A board member confirmed the board’s expectation that the board of supervisors would follow the sealed-bid process and that additional steps would follow if the building did not sell in the sealed-bid period. The motion to approve the resolution to advertise and accept sealed bids passed by voice vote.
