BACKGROUND
Background
Guilford County acquired the properties at 1124 Kentmere Road, Greensboro, NC 27406, and 2405 ZZ Minorwood Road, Greensboro, NC 27405, through tax lien foreclosure auctions. Both properties are vacant parcels with no structures.
Staff reviewed the properties and determined that neither has a current or foreseeable use for County operations or services. Staff therefore recommends declaring both properties surplus so they may be offered for sale. A sale to a taxable owner would return the properties to the tax rolls and generate property tax revenue.
Staff recommends that the Board declare both properties surplus and authorize staff to initiate the applicable property sale process. Any sale will be subject to required notices, bidding procedures, and Board approval if the value of the transaction is greater than $30,000, per the FY2026-27 Budget Ordinance.
