Board approves auctioneer contract changes, authorizes execution and moves to dissolve Fort Pickett LRA
Summary
Supervisors negotiated contract terms with a recommended auctioneer (revising post‑listing protection to 120 days), authorized execution after attorney review, set an online auction schedule concluding Nov. 21, and passed a resolution directing retitling of Fort Pickett LRA property to Nottoway County.
The Board discussed and approved changes to a recommended auctioneer contract for sale of LRA properties, negotiated the post‑listing protection period from 180 to 120 days, and authorized the county administrator to execute the contract after the county attorney reviews the edits.
The auctioneer advised the Board the online auction would be posted and run to conclude at 11 a.m. on Nov. 21; supervisors discussed how a subsequent public hearing and closed‑session negotiation over a high bid would align with the sale ratification process. One vendor explained the online bidding timeline and the rationale for a post‑listing protection period (to cover advertising and expense recovery); the Board and vendor agreed to a 120‑day protection period in the contract.
Separately, the Board passed a resolution directing the county administrator to take legal steps to retitle property now titled under the Fort Pickett Local Redevelopment Authority to the County of Nottoway, saying the change removes an extra administrative layer and should speed real‑property sales and economic development activities.
