AGLO 1978 NO. 22 >

Assuming full compliance by a port district with the procedural requirements of RCW 53.08.090, such a district may sell and convey certain described real property initially acquired by the district as a green belt and buffer zone in connection with its operation of a municipal airport; and in the absence of proof that the subject property was actually, instead, originally acquired for the purpose of resale the potential applicability of Article VIII, § 8 (Amendment 45) of the state constitution presents an entirely moot question.
