   HOUSE BILL 449

   Section 1. Article 12 of G.S. Chapter 160A is amended by adding a new section, to read as follows:

"Upon finding that such a limitation is in the public interest, the council, when disposing of property pursuant to this Article, may impose limitations upon the future use of the property. The council may do so by including in the conveyance appropriate covenants or other restrictions or by conveying an estate in fee simple determinable or fee simple subject to a condition subsequent. If property is to be conveyed subject to limitations on future use, the notice or advertisement of the sale required by Article 12 shall specify the limitations and the method by which they will be imposed."

Sec. 1.1. This act applies to McDowell County, only.
