Bill > H479

This bill authorizes the State of North Carolina to transfer approximately 11 acres of land (from a larger 355.73-acre parcel) to the Town of Burgaw for the nominal price of one dollar. The specific portion of land will be determined jointly by the Department of Administration and the Town of Burgaw, and the property is identified by a specific PIN Number and referenced in Pender County deed records. The transfer comes with a key condition that the land must be used for public purposes, and if it is not, the state retains a reversionary interest, meaning the property would revert back to state ownership. The state will convey the property "as is" and "where is," without any warranties regarding title, boundaries, potential uses, zoning, or physical and environmental conditions, and the Town of Burgaw will be responsible for all costs associated with the transfer. The bill also exempts this specific land transfer from certain standard state property transfer regulations while still requiring compliance with other relevant statutes. The act will become effective immediately upon becoming law.
