DATE: June 5, 2013 FROM: Teresa Rozic Property & Facilities 541-385-1414 TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM: Consideration of Board Signature of Order 2013-025, an Order for the Sale of Certain Real Property Acquired by Deschutes County. PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? No BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: At their work session June 5, 2013, the Board of County Commissioners (the "Board") directed staff to proceed with a public auction of county-owned land. ORS 275.110 provides that the Board will fix the minimum price for each parcel and the conditions and terms of sale. As we've done in the past, we will offer financing for properties sold at $25,000 or more. Property Management staff has worked with Legal Counsel, Community Development, Finance Department and the Sheriff's Office to prepare documents associated with the sale. Community Development, Road Department, and the County Forester have reviewed the list of properties to be offered and find there is no reason to retain the land in county ownership. The auction will begin at 10:00 a.m. Friday, August 9, 2013, in the Barnes Hearing Room. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: If all the parcels sell at minimum bid, proceeds would be $504,400. It is rare that all parcels offered at auction are sold. RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends approval of Order 2013-025.
