TAVARES, FL – August 17, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — Lake County continues to explore land options for the acquisition of property that could subsequently be used for future County projects.
With discussions of acquiring land still in the preliminary stages, the County is interested in hearing from property owners whose land meets specific criteria. Property owners must contact the County no later than Oct. 1 for their land to be considered.
