If the board determines that maintenance of the property is unnecessarily burdensome to the county or that reconveyance would be in the best interest of the county and its residents, the board may formally adopt a resolution stating that determination. Upon the adoption of the resolution, the chair or an authorized representative of the board shall issue a written offer of reconveyance to the person from whom the real property was received or acquired, or that person’s successor in interest.
3. If the person from whom the land was received or acquired, or that person’s successor in interest:
(a) Accepts the offer of reconveyance within 45 days after the date of the offer, the board of county commissioners shall execute a deed of reconveyance.
(b) Refuses to accept the offer of reconveyance or states in writing that he or she is unable to accept the offer of reconveyance, the board of county commissioners may sell or lease the real property in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
