INTRODUCED BY: WARNER
PROPOSED BY: County Executive
DATE: April 16, 1987
RESOLUTION NO. 87 -16
A RESOLUTION TO SELL PROPERTY
ACQUIRED BY COUNTY ON TAX
FORECLOSURE
WHEREAS, RCW 84.64.270 allows the County to sell real estate
acquired by tax foreclosures where it is found to be in the best
interests 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 a lot in Neptune Heights which has
been received through tax foreclosure; and,
WHEREAS, the Whatcom County Code as well as the state law
allows the County to reserve from the sale, coal, oil, gas,
gravel, minerals, 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 does deem it in the best
interest of the County not to reserve these mineral rights, but
rather to transfer them with the sale; and,
WHEREAS, RCW 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 Whatcom County Council deems that the price of
$607.16 is the minimum price for said lot and that it is low
enough not to accept a 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 that it is in the best
interest of the County to sell Lot 35, of Neptune Heights
