A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO ALLOW THE COUNTY OF ALAMANCE AND THE CITIES LOCATED IN THAT COUNTY TO DONATE UNCLAIMED BICYCLES TO CHARITY.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  Section 2 of Chapter 650 of the 1993 Session Laws, as amended by Chapter 106 of the 1995 Session Laws, reads as rewritten:
"Sec. 2.  This act applies only to the Cities of Asheville and Hendersonville and to the cities located in the County of Alamance."
Sec. 2.  Nothwithstanding the provisions of G.S. 153A-176 and Article 2 of Chapter 15 of the General Statutes, whenever unclaimed bicycles are in the possession of the sheriff's department, no earlier than 30 days after the date of publication of the notice required by G.S. 15-12, the county may donate the bicycles to a charitable organization exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code rather than selling the bicycles as provided by law.  In such case, the notice required by G.S. 15-12 shall state the intended disposition of the bicycles if they are not claimed.
Sec. 3.  Section 2 of this act applies to the County of Alamance only.
Sec. 4.  This act is effective upon ratification.
