Council approves first reading to sell 3.95 acres to adjoining landowner for $4,000
Summary
Council approved first reading of Ordinance 25 10 35 to sell a 3.95-acre, landlocked parcel (described as an abandoned sewer lagoon) to Adam Bryant for $1,000 per acre ($4,000 total); staff recommended approval because the county has no use for the parcel.
Sumter County Council approved first reading of Ordinance 25 10 35 to accept an offer from Adam Bryant to purchase 3.95 acres of county-owned land for $1,000 per acre, a total of $4,000. County staff told council the parcel is a landlocked, abandoned sewer lagoon for which the county has no current use.
Staff said Bryant owns the adjoining property and purchased two adjoining tracts totaling approximately 131.4 acres for about $130,000; he offered the $1,000-per-acre price for the 3.95-acre parcel to consolidate ownership. County staff recommended acceptance of the offer and council moved and seconded first reading; first reading passed on voice vote.
The ordinance is at first-reading stage; further readings or administrative steps will follow per county procedure.
