Hearing Planned For Surplus Property Sale

SNOW HILL – Worcester County is expected to host a public hearing regarding the sale of two surplus properties in Snow Hill next month.

The commissioners voted unanimously March 21 to schedule a public hearing for the sale of the former liquor control warehouse and the former economic development building. A request for proposals for the properties yielded one bid for the liquor control warehouse and two bids for the economic development building.

“We are looking to part with two properties we’re no longer utilizing,” Chief Administrative Officer Weston Young said.

Proposals for the properties were due March 8. Nicholas Rice, the county’s procurement officer, reported that one proposal was received for the liquor control warehouse from Talkie Communications in the amount of $380,000. Talkie Communications has been leasing the space on a month-to-month basis. The former liquor control warehouse, located on Snow Hill Road west of town, is a nearly eight-acre site with a 47,575-square-foot warehouse building.

Two proposals were received for the former economic development building. The first was from Davis Strategic Development in the amount of $125,000 and the second was from Garibay Construction in the amount of $280,000. The economic development building, located at 100 Pearl St., is a three-story, 4,554-square-foot commercial structure. County staff have moved from the building, which has some structural issues and an uninhabitable third floor, to newly leased space on Green Street.

  1. Moore needs to speak with the people of Crisfield Md who have wind turbines you can see from the county dock. Not only is this blocking the view and wrecking the picturesque sight that the people & visitors enjoyed for years, it is killing the sea birds being gulls, eagles and more. It also I am told generated nothing good.
