§700.12 Resale of property.

The Commission is authorized to dispose of dwellings and other improvements acquired pursuant to the Act in such manner, including resale of such dwellings and improvements to members of the tribe exercising jurisdiction over the area at prices no higher than the acquisition or construction cost, as best effects section 8 of the Act and the order of the District Court pursuant to section 3 or 4 of the Act. All resale of said property shall proceed as follows:

(a) The tribe acquiring jurisdiction of the partitioned area shall have the first opportunity to purchase the acquired property at the price paid by the Commission for said property.

(b) If the tribe does not purchase any of said improvements on the property, the improvements may be sold to persons designated by the tribe for the

price paid by the Commission for said improvements.

(c) If the individual designated by the tribe does not purchase the property from the Commission at the set price, the property shall be sold to any member of the tribe having jurisdiction over said acquired property at a public auction. If more than one person bids the price paid by the Commission for said habitation and improvement, the buyer will be determined by the drawing of lots.

(d) If no person purchases said property, the Commission may dispose of it by giving it to the tribal government having jurisdiction over said property, or by giving it to any Federal agency having programs that can make use of said improvements.

(e) Notices for any such sales shall first be mailed to the tribal governments and the tribal government shall exercise their option to purchase said property within thirty days of said notice unless the Commission extends the option purchase date. If the tribal government does not purchase said property and an individual is designated by the tribe to purchase said property, said individual shall have thirty days from the date of notice of his option in which to exercise his option to purchase the improvements, unless such period of time is extended by the Commission. Notices of any public auctions or sales of said improvements shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area where the property is to be sold at least four times in the thirty day period immediately prior to the sale, the last publication being not later than one week prior to the sale. In addition the Commission shall use what other methods are deemed appropriate to insure adequate notification of the sale to all persons who may be eligible to purchase said improvements.
