"Sonny" Dean, Director Department of General Servi FROM: George Wolf, Interim Purchasing Manag Division of Purchasing SUBJ: Request To Dispose of Surplus County Real Property The Department of Utility Services requests the following properties be declared surplus and scheduled for imminent sale.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the above four parcels of County property, be de- clared surplus real property and advertised for sale to the highest and best bidder(s). Commissioner Bowman could not imagine why the County would want to dispose of 20 acres of undisturbed, pristine pine flatwoods. Commissioner Scurlock explained that this is a Utilities item, and our utilities system is set up as an enterprise fund. There is no function that land provides for a utility operation. If the General Fund would like to purchase that parcel and keep it in our inventory of land, he was sure Utilities would be happy to dispose of it internally. The only reason this is on the surplus list is that it is surplus for the purpose of Utilities. Chairman Eggert asked if Commissioner Scurlock, as chairman of the Land Acquisition Committee, would like to look into this. 12
