All lands, buildings, structures, sites, areas, or objects acquired by funds appropriated by the local government shall be acquired in the name of the local government, unless otherwise provided by the Board of Commissioners. So long as owned by the local government, historic properties and landmarks may be maintained by or under the supervision and control of the local government. However, all lands, buildings, or structures acquired by the Historic Preservation Commission from funds other than those appropriated by the local government may be acquired and held in the name of the Historic Preservation Commission, the local government, or both in accordance with the General Statutes of North Carolina as they may apply and as approved by the Board of Commissioners.
