The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

other instrument of title whereby title to such real property was heretofore
acquired or is hereafter acquired; second, as provided by any other act of the
General Assembly; third, the net proceeds shall be deposited with the State
Treasurer. Provided, however, nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting
the disposition of any State lands by exchange for other lands, but if the
appraised value in fee simple of any property involved in the exchange is at
least twenty‑five thousand dollars ($25,000), then such exchange may not
be made without consultation with the Joint Legislative Commission on

(1) If the appraised value of the land exceeds six million dollars ($6,000,000), the net proceeds shall be deposited with the State Treasurer to support the General Fund.
(2) If the appraised value of the land does not exceed six million dollars ($6,000,000), the net proceeds shall be deposited as follows:
a. Twenty-five percent (25%) to the State agency to which the property was allocated. These funds may be used for any purpose authorized by law and are hereby appropriated.
b. Twenty-five percent (25%) to the State Treasurer to support the General Fund.
c. Fifty (50%) to the State Treasurer to be deposited in the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System of North Carolina. These funds are hereby appropriated.
However, no State lands or contract shall be divided for the purpose of evading the appraised value of the provisions of this Subchapter."
SECTION 2. G.S. 146‑30 is amended by adding a new subsection to read:
"(a1) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the disposition of any State lands by exchange for other lands, but if the appraised value in fee simple of any property involved in the exchange is at least twenty‑five thousand dollars ($25,000), then such exchange may not be made without consultation with the Joint Legislative Commission on Governmental Operations."
