Attorney Hawn stated that County property can either be leased or sold with certain requirements related to public notification. If the Board desires to lease or sell the property to a non-profit organization to assume operations, such action requires a unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors in order to avoid the public auction process and the Board would be able to specify conditions on the use of the facility; if not by a unanimous vote, the formal bid process would be required.
