Summary

The Greene County commissioners approved a motion to assign two tax-sale certificates for commercial properties in Wilmington to the regional land bank, contingent on the land bank's acceptance. The move aims to return vacant commercial parcels to the tax rolls and support redevelopment.

The Greene County Board of Commissioners on May 9 approved assigning two tax-sale certificates for Wilmington commercial properties to the regional land bank, subject to the land bank's acceptance.

A commissioner said the properties have sat vacant and that transferring certificates to the land bank would allow redevelopment and return the parcels to the tax rolls. The motion specified assignment of certificate numbers 2824001117 and 2824001118 to the regional land bank "upon receipt of the land bank's acceptance." A commissioner on the land bank seconded the motion; commissioners voted in favor.

County staff said a formal acceptance from the regional land bank is still required before transfer. The motion instructs staff to proceed with the steps necessary to transfer the certificates if and when the land bank accepts the properties.
