What’s in it
Current law authorizes an agency in control of unused highway right-of-way to sell the land. _____ of adjacent land from which the land was originally purchased or condemned for highway purposes, and to the person who owned the land at the time it was purchased or condemned for highway purposes. The notice must include the name and address of any other person to whom a notice was sent, and the fair market value of the real property based upon an appraisal by an independent appraiser. The agency must send such notice by certified mail.
Read the full explanation
This bill strikes the certified mail requirement, and instead authorizes required notice to be hand-delivered or sent by verified mail. Hand-delivered notice is deemed delivered when the recipient signs an acknowledgment of delivery, while notice sent by verified mail is deemed delivered when the notice is deposited with the United States postal service (USPS) or private delivery service, and such notice is properly addressed with postage prepaid. As used in the bill, “verified mail” means any method of mailing offered by USPS or private delivery service that provides evidence of the mailing.22(2), and the determined fair market value is $50,000 or less.
