The board of supervisors shall have the power to sell and dispose of at public sale for cash, any personal property belonging to the county or any subdivision thereof when the same shall have ceased to be used for county purposes or when, in the judgment of said board, a sale thereof would promote the best interest of the county. Said sale shall be advertised by posting notices at three (3) public places in the county, at least ten (10) days prior to such sale, one (1) of which said notices shall be posted at the courthouse. The proceeds of said sale shall be placed in the county depository to the credit of the proper fund. Where said property shall not exceed One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) in value the same may be sold and disposed of by the boards of supervisors at a private sale by the unanimous vote of the members of said board of supervisors and the proceeds thereof disposed of as above provided. However, if the board of supervisors find consistent with fact that the fair-market value of the personal property is zero and this finding is duly entered on the minutes of the board, then the personal property in question may be disposed of as deemed to be appropriate and in the best interest of the county, provided that no county official or employee derives any personal economic benefit from such disposal. If any of such property may be of use or benefit to the United States government in its national defense effort, the board of supervisors is hereby authorized in its discretion to turn over such property to the United States government by way of a donation thereto.
Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit, restrict or to prescribe conditions with regard to the authority granted under Section 17-25-3.
