Resolution
ACCEPT A BID ON TAX TITLE PROPERTY AT THE CORNER OF WALLACE ROAD AND TILLICUM DRIVE
WHEREAS, tax title property Parcel No. 010808002000 was conveyed to Lewis County by the County Treasurer following an unsuccessful attempt to sell the property at public auction; and
WHEREAS, the County received two bids to purchase the property, which is not within any city limits. The high bid amount received was $5,111.00, which exceeds the amount of unpaid taxes and miscellaneous Treasurer's fees. Since the property is impractical to build upon due to size and shape, RCW 36.35.150(1) allows for the properties to be disposed of by private negotiations without a call for bids, providing that the final price is no less than the principal amount of unpaid taxes.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the aforesaid offer in the amount of $5,111.00 for property at the north quadrant of Wallace Road and Tillicum Drive is accepted.
DONE IN OPEN SESSION this 26th day of November, 2024.
