DATE:
October 16, 2017
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING and Possible Decision for Determination to
Declare Certain County Property as Surplus: House and House
Only located on APN 991200407, commonly known as 161
Rodgers St., Quilcene, Washington
ATTACH: Resolution: Determination to Declare Certain County Property
as Surplus: Quilcene House
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Jefferson County purchased land with a residence in Quilcene for
the purpose of flood management and restoration efforts for the Big Quilcene River. Originally
the plan included demolishing the house after property acquisition. There has been interest in
selling the house to be moved off-site, and this effort is intended to pursue that goal. To gift
the property to a governmental agency or housing authority or to sell the home, the county
must declare the house surplus pursuant to Chapter 36.34 RCW. With a determination to sell
after a public hearing, the Board may also set a minimum purchase price per RCW 36.34.050.
ANALYSIS: The house may be sold as real property improvement only through the county
surplus process. The process includes holding a public hearing on the merits of selling the
property. The Board may approve a resolution to sell the property after a public hearing, and
they may establish a minimum sale price per RCW 36.34.050. The sale must be held by public
auction or sealed bid and awarded to the highest and best bidder that can meet the terms of
sale.
Per RCW 36.34.135, county property may be leased for a term not to exceed 75 years to any
public housing authority or nonprofit organization that has demonstrated its ability to construct
or operate housing for very low-income, low-income, or moderate -income households as
defined in RCW 43.63A.510 and special needs populations. Given this surplus property is for
the home and not land, and given this project must meet the terms of the grant that helped
purchase the property, this option does not seem viable.
Intergovernmental sales are allowed by means of private negotiation per RCW 36.34.130.
Governmental agencies that would qualify include the City of Port Townsend, school and fire
districts among others. Further, RCW 35.83.030 (or any other part of the Housing
Cooperation Law in Chapter 35.83 RCW) allows the county to negotiate with the Peninsula
Housing Authority similar to how we can negotiate with a governmental entity. At this time, no
other local housing providers would qualify as governmental agencies in Jefferson County.
If selling the property to a non-governmental agency or qualifying housing authority, it is
suggested that a nominal minimum bid be set and the sale conducted through sealed bid. We
anticipate allowing two months for bidders to research and submit a bid to the county, an
opportunity to attend an open house to view the inside of the home, and six months to
remove the House after bid award and payment. Payment will be required in cash, cashier's
check or money order the day of the bid opening and bid award.
FISCAL IMPACT: Minimal revenue is expected. Proceeds from the sale (after publication
and sale expenses) will be returned to the funds that purchased the property, namely the Big
Quilcene Flood Fund and the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO).
RECOMMENDATION: Hold the public hearing, consider public comment, and approve the
Resolution for Determination to Declare Certain County Property as Surplus for the House
located on APN 991200407 in Quilcene. Include a minimum bid price or desire to negotiate
with governmental agencies or qualifying Housing Authorities as deemed appropriate.
