WHEREAS, R.C.W. 84.64.270 allows the County to sell real estate acquired by tax
foreclosures where it is found to be in the best interest of Whatcom County to sell the same;
and,
WHEREAS, Whatcom County Council does deem it to be in the County's best
interest to sell parcel #400108 - 010340 which has been received through tax foreclosure; and,
WHEREAS, the Whatcom County Property Management Committee has
recommended the sale of the subject property at no less than seventy five percent of its
assessed value;
WHEREAS, the Whatcom County Code as well as the state law allows the County
to reserve from the sale coal, oil, gas, gravel, mineral, ores, fossils, timber or other resources
if the Council finds that it is in the best interest to reserve these; and,
WHEREAS, the Whatcom County Council has determined that it is in the best
interest of the County to sell said lot(s) subject to a restrictive covenant allowing for
imposition of community association fees; and,
WHEREAS, R.C.W. 84.64 requires the Council to establish the minimum price for
said unit of property and to determine whether or not a contract will be allowed or if it will
be a cash price; and,
WHEREAS, the assessed value of said property is $2500.00 and seventy five percent
of the assessed value is $1875.00 and that it is low enough not to accept contract on this
price but would be in the County's best interest and the Council would require that this
amount be paid in cash;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Whatcom County Council that it
is in the best interest of the County to sell parcel #400108 - 010340 for the recommended
minimum price of $1875.00, plus costs and further in this sale transferring to the owners all
coal, oil, gas, gravel, minerals, ores, fossils, timber or other resources on or in said land and
the right to mine for and remove the same in conformity with zoning regulations in force
and effect;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that said lot(s) shall be sold subject to the restrictive
covenant allowing for imposition of community association fees as set forth in Whatcom
County Resolution No. 88 -37;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this sale shall be subject to the certification of
the County Treasurer. Once the Treasurer shall certify that the price set in the Resolution
is at least the amount of taxes which are owed to the County as provided for in R.C.W.
86.64.270, she shall direct the sale to take place;
39 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that said price shall not be allowed under contract
40 and shall be paid in either cash, certified check, or money order to the Whatcom County
41 Treasurer at the time of sale;
42 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Whatcom County Treasurer is hereby
43 directed to sell such property at not less than a certified price and said sale shall take place
