(c) Except as provided by Subsection (d), real property sold under Subsection (a) must be sold for the property's fair market value.

(e) A community center must notify each appropriate department and each local agency that appoints members to the board of trustees not later than the 31st day before the date the center enters into a binding obligation to sell real property under this section.
