Agenda 06/24/2014 Item #16K16/24/2014 16.K.1.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a Final Judgment in the amount of $1,200 for Parcels 105TCE
and 106TCE, along with statutory attorneys' fees, in the lawsuit styled Collier County, Florida
v. Modelyne Jean Gilles, et al., Case No. 14 -CA -764 for the Collier Boulevard Expansion
Project (Project No. 68056) (Fiscal Impact $1,008).
OBJECTIVE: That the Board of County Commissioners approves the Final Judgment for
payment of full compensation in the amount of $1,200, for the taking of Parcels 105TCE and
106TCE in the lawsuit styled Collier County, Florida v. Modelyne Jean Gilles, et al., Case No. 14-
CA -764 for the Collier Boulevard expansion (Project No. 68056).
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County condemned a total of 1,650 square feet for two temporary
construction easements from property owners Annette Pocchi and Pocchi Construction, Inc. The
County's appraisals dated December 17, 2013, valued the takings at $285 for each parcel. The
County offered each owner $285 as the County's statutory offer on January 24, 2014. An Order of
Taking was entered on May 30, 2014 for the stated amounts.
Respondents have counteroffered a total of $1,200 for settlement for both parcels. Staff
recommends settlement for full compensation in the amount of $1,008, inclusive of attorney's fees
and costs. If approved, the County will be responsible for the following costs:
Additional offer for both parcels: $ 630
Statutory Attorney's fees and costs: $ 208
Clerk's fees: $ 170
TOTAL: $1,008
The County Attorney's Office and staff strongly recommend this settlement, given the statutory
imposed costs of trial (including the County's having to pay for the property owner's expert fees).
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $1,008 are available in transportation impact fees
and /or gas taxes. Project: Collier Boulevard Extension. The acquisition of this right -of -way will
not add any cost to the annual operating and maintenance budget as the easement area will not be
maintained before the Project is constructed. Operating and maintenance costs will be considered
when the construction contract is brought before the Board for approval.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires a
majority vote for approval. -ERP
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approves a Final Judgment
as to Parcels 105TCE and 106TCE, and authorizes payment of the funds as stated.
