(3) Upon the repeal by the county board or the city council of the resolution declaring the county or the city of New York to be a soil and water conservation district, the directors shall at public auction dispose of all property belonging to the district as soon as said property is no longer needed by the district to fulfill any existing contracts, and shall forthwith pay over the proceeds of such sale, after paying the necessary costs of the sale, into the county or the city of New York treasury. The directors shall, at least ten days prior to the holding of such public auction, notify the state committee of the property proposed to be sold thereat, and after such sale shall render to the county board or the city council and to the state committee a report of such sale, specifying the property sold, the amount received therefore, and the disposition of the proceeds.
