Executive Summary:
The Fayetteville Redevelopment Commission conveyed four parcels to the City of Fayetteville on October 18, 2007. These parcels were included in the Murchison Road Redevelopment Area Section 3 Part 2, Project NC-R 90 dated August 11, 1978. The property is currently on the Surplus Property Interest List on the City’s website. The City has received bid amounts for each property in the amount of $1,250.00. The City has never developed the property and has no plans to utilize the parcels.

Deborah Woodfork has submitted bid forms and deposits in the amount of $62.50 for the subject properties. The properties are listed on the Surplus Property Interest List with a minimum bid of $1,250.00 each. N.C.G.S. §160A-269 gives the authority and procedure for the upset bid process.
