BOC Rescinds Real Estate Agent Resolution

ELLIJAY, Ga. – Gilmer County’s Board of Commissioners has rescinded a resolution passed less than two weeks ago to accept bids on retaining a Real Estate Agent to sell of properties the specify.

After an Executive Session, both present board members voted in favor of rescinding a resolution to engage bids from real estate agents. That motion came on July 24, 2020, when the commissioners were looking to sell the Planning and Zoning building.

Originally, the county would have used the agent to sell the Planning and Zoning building, but wouldn’t have to go through the agent for every piece of property that may come up. They would have decided their choice on each property. Now, they will still look to sell the building. However, it will go through a usual bid process for properties.

The single motion covered both actions as the board moves forward with the sale.
