DESCRIPTION

The County’s Land Donation Program allows property owners to donate property to the County for which there is a need or use by the County.  A representative for the owner of a parcel of land contacted the County and offered to donate the property.  The property, identified as Parcel ID Number 303101-000000-013140, is a vacant parcel located in the southeast part of the county.  County staff reviewed the parcel and determined that there is a use for the property as it is located within a recognized State Conservation Area known as the Bombing Range Ridge Florida Forever Project Area.  The subject property is a vacant rectangular shaped parcel containing approximately 1.5-acres which has very little market value and limited or no access.  

Gladys Neely acquired the property in May 1977.  She is now deceased and the heirs of her estate, Barbara N. Hearn and James L. Neely, have executed a Quit Claim Deed to the County for the conveyance of the property.  Accepting and the Quit Claim Deed will allow the County to take ownership of property being donated to be utilized for conservation preservation.

RECOMMENDATION

Request Board accept the aforementioned Quit Claim Deed.

FISCAL IMPACT

No fiscal impact.
