The Village Council may, from time to time, adopt a resolution
determining that there is no present use nor foreseeable future need
for certain real property owned by the Village and make such property
available for sale, either public or private. A copy of the Village's
resolution making real estate available for sale shall be posted on
the bulletin board at the Village Hall for the purpose of informing
the general public.
The Village Clerk shall accept bids or offers for real property
which has been identified by the Village Council by resolution as
being available for sale and shall present such bids or offers to
the Village Council at its next regular or special meeting.
Upon receipt of an offer to purchase Village property the Village
Clerk shall sign the offer acknowledging receipt of the offer being
tendered. The Village Clerk's action shall not be binding upon
the Village until accepted by the Village Council.
Except as otherwise provided by law:
A. The Village Council shall review and consider bids or offers made
for the purchase of real estate owned by the Village which is available
for sale, and after due consideration may accept, reject or refer
the parcel for appraisal to better determine the value of the property.
B. If the Village Council accepts the offer, it must do so by a concurring
vote of two-thirds of the elected council members.
The Village President and the Village Clerk shall authorize
to execute and deliver a quitclaim deed to real property conveyed
in accordance with this chapter.
