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.  The owner of a parcel of land contacted the County and offered to donate his property to the County.  The property, identified as Parcel ID Number 313203-000000-024240, is a vacant parcel located in the southeast part of the County.  County staff reviewed the property 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 Board of Trustees - Project Area as well as being located within the Avon Park Bombing Range Buffer area.  The subject property is a rectangular-shaped parcel containing approximately 1.25-acres which has very little market value and limited or no access.

 

Timothy Tuttle acquired the property in 2006 and he has executed and delivered a Quit Claim Deed to the County for the conveyance of the property.  Accepting and approving the deed for recording will allow the County to take ownership of the property being donated to be utilized for conservation preservation.

 

RECOMMENDATION

Request Board accept the afore-mentioned Quit Claim Deed.
