Agenda 02/12/2013 Item #16D 6n 2/12/2013 16.D.6. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve to pay 2012 property taxes and_ proceed with closing on donation of a 10 acre parcel previously approved for the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program at a cost not to exceed $100. OBJECTIVE: To pay the 2012 taxes due upon a 10 acre parcel donated to Collier County for the Conservation Collier Program. CONSIDERATIONS: On January 25, 2011, Agenda Item IOB, the Board approved terminating acquisition activities for the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program unless "a very good deal" comes forward. On January 24, 2012, Agenda Item 16E4, the Board of County Commissioners accepted a Donation Agreement with Ginnie Evans Poovery Kania, the heir of Carol Evans Triplett Estate (Owner) which was considered to be "a very good deal ". Staff advised that the property owner would need to go through the Florida probate process in order to ensure clear title. Staff had expected to close on this property in early fall 2012, and the intent was to come back to the Board and ask to cancel the 2012 taxes as per Resolution 93499. However, because the probate process took longer than expected and the closing did not take place in 2012, the 2012 property taxes could not be canceled and are now due and payable. The Board had previously authorized $500 for payment of the anticipated delinquent 2011 property taxes. The Owner subsequently paid the 2011 property taxes at a cost of $300.55. 'Consistent with the Board's intent, the County will reimburse the owner for the 2011 taxes. Relative to the original authorized allowance for taxes $199.45 remains. Staff has received an executed Personal Representative Deed from Owner; however, Owner has advised that they do not want to pay any additional monies for 2012 property taxes, or any other expenses. If closing occurs in February, property taxes due for 2012 are $299.10. Staff is requesting authorization to pay 2012 property taxes on the subject property and increase the total estimated cost of conveyance to $3,100. If we do not pay the 2012 property taxes, the property taxes will become delinquent and may be sold eventually to tax deed. Even by paying the additional monies for 2012 property taxes, this would still be considered "a very good deal" for the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program. At its January 14, 2013 meeting, the CCLAAC approved and voted to recommend paying the additional money for the 2012 property taxes in an amount not to exceed $100. FISCAL IMPACT: The revised estimated cost of the conveyance will not exceed $3,100 as shown in the following table. Adequate funds for these expenditures are available in the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172) budget. _ 1-24-12 SM Appmmd fie*w t" cosh ++e costs Probateco= i'itle cap wlftn E a 2411 FropertyTasces 2012 ProenTaxas Z 2,0D0 - - 5w 300 " (200) - 300 300 TOW Cost 3AW ! 3,100 f 100 Packet Page -1842- 2/12/2013 16.D.6. Real Property Management's Review Appraiser still values this 10 acre parcel at $25,000. Because of its /"\ environmental condition and its proximity to the existing McIlvane Marsh Preserve, this 10 acre donation is not anticipated to increase the McIlvane Marsh Preserve perpetual operations and maintenance cost estimates that have already been considered by the CCLAAC and incorporate4 into the Conservation Collier Long Term Financial Management Plan. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan related to this action. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is legally sufficient and requires a majority vote for Board action - JW. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners of Collier County, Florida: 1) Approve Staffs recommendation to pay the 2012 property taxes and autiorize up to $100.00 of additional funding to cover this cost, and 2) Directs the County Manager or his designee to proceed to acquire this parcel, to follow all appropriate closing procedures, to record the deed and any and all necessary documents to obtain clear title to this parcel, and to take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure performance under the Agreement.
