Fiscal Detail and Notes
This resolve authorizes the Bureau of Parks and Lands (BPL) within the Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry to sell certain lots of land in Lincoln Plantation through a standing offer to current leaseholders with no fixed deadline. The land will be sold at fair market value, and the revenue generated in the current and future bienniums will be deposited into BPL's Oxford County Acquisitions Account to fund the purchase of conservation lands elsewhere in the county.
This resolve also authorizes BPL to exchange up to 0.25 acres of land in Sandy River Plantation for a deeded right-of-way across an adjacent parcel. As this is a value-for-value transaction, it will not generate additional revenue. Any resulting fiscal impact to the department is expected to be minor and can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
