The County attempted to auction the recently closed school properties this weekend and the BOS is surprised at outcome. What did these elected buffoons expect? Halifax County isn't exactly rolling in the dough and neither are it's citizens.
A wise person once told me that if you wanted to find out the true value of something, you should hold a public auction. The high bid is that item's true value at that moment simply because you have someone willing to pay you that amount.
The C.H. Friend property has a tax assessment of over three million dollars. How in the world can that be accurate, especially since the building has been neglected and vandalized?
Let the properties go to the high bidders and move on. The longer the properties sit neglected the lower their real value will be. Who will win by declining those bids? It certainly will not be county taxpayers.
