Board Rejects Option to Buy Small Parcel Near Eastlawn Elementary; Proceeds Suggested for School Bond Debt
Summary
Alamance County declined to exercise a first refusal on a small parcel near Eastlawn Elementary that the school system declared surplus for a DOT road widening. County staff indicated proceeds should help reduce ABSS bond indebtedness or capital outlays; board adopted a resolution rejecting purchase.
The Alamance County Board of Commissioners voted to decline the county’s right of first refusal to purchase 0.245 acres being surplus‑declared by the Alamance‑Burlington School System as part of a DOT road widening project. County staff explained the Board of Education is required by statute to first offer surplus property to the county; the school board approved disposal and an offer from DOT. The county motion rejects the option so the school system may proceed with the transfer to DOT and requested that proceeds be directed to reduce ABSS bonded indebtedness or capital outlay.
