Mary in Virginia, to sell and convey certain property in the city of
Williamsburg to Colonial Williamsburg, Incorporated. rH 83)

Approved February 7, 1964

Whereas, by deed dated September 5, 1945, the Commonwealth of
Virginia, the State Hospital Board and Eastern State Hospital conveyed
to the College of William and Mary in Virginia certain real estate lying
partly within the corporate limits of the city of Williamsburg and partly
within the county of James City, comprising approximately 207 acres with
improvements thereon, which deed was recorded in the Clerk’s Office of
the Circuit Court of the city of Williamsburg and James City County, on
September 11, 1945, in Deed Book 20, page 298; and

Whereas, the Board of Visitors of the College of William and Mary in
Virginia for a period of years has followed a general policy of retaining
College land for its future development and as a means of its fulfilling its
educational responsibility to the Commonwealth ; and

Whereas, the Board of Visitors of the College of William and Mary
in Virginia finds that an exception to this policy is justified in cases where
certain parcels of these lands are essential to the important and continuing
work of restoration and reconstruction of historically significant areas
within the city of Williamsburg and the county of James City, and where
such an exception in the opinion of the Board of Visitors does not jeopard-
ize the future educational interests of the College of William and Mary in
Virginia; and

Whereas, such an exception was recommended by the Board of Visitors
and approved by the General Assembly of Virginia by its Act of March 11,
1960, Chapter 259, whereby the Board of Visitors was authorized to sell
ae convey 13.73 acres of such land to Colonial Williamsburg, Incorpor-
ated ; an

Whereas, the Board of Visitors, pursuant to a vital interest mani-
fested by Colonial Williamsburg, Incorporated, desires to make a further
exception to its general policy of retaining College land in order to enable
a parcel of 8.71 acres, adjacent to the 13.73 acres previously authorized
for sale and conveyance by the aforesaid Act of March 11, 1960, to be sold
and conveyed to Colonial Williamsburg, Incorporated, thereby permitting
this entire tract to become a contiguous, compact, complete, and natural
trea fulfilling its historical restoration potential and, at the same time,
neeting an urgent civic need in providing a site for a new courthouse to
erve the city of Williamsburg and the county of James City; and

Whereas, the Board of Visitors of the said College has had the value
yf the said parcel of land appraised and the fair market price of the same
as been agreed to by Colonial Williamsburg, Incorporated ; now, therefore,

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1 §1. The Board of Visitors of the College of William and Mary in
