However, appraisals may be obtained by the district school board, the Board of Trustees for the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind, or the Florida College System institution board of trustees prior to or simultaneously with the receipt of bids.
(b) Subject to regulations of the Board of Governors, a state university board of trustees may dispose of any land or real property to which it holds valid title which is, by resolution of the state university board of trustees, determined to be unnecessary for educational purposes as recommended in an educational plant survey. A state university board of trustees shall take diligent measures to dispose of educational property only in the best interests of the public. However, appraisals may be obtained by the state university board of trustees prior to or simultaneously with the receipt of bids.

However, the provisions of chapter 274 shall not be applicable to a motor vehicle used in driver education to which title is obtained for a token amount from an automobile dealer or manufacturer.
