Agenda 01/24/2012 Item #16E41/24/2012 Item 16.E.4. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve a standard form Donation Agreement with Ginnie Evans Poovey Kania for 10 acres under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program, at a cost not to exceed $3,000, and approve the Chairman to sign when completed. OBJECTIVE: Acceptance of a donation of 10 acres within the Mcllvane Marsh Preserve area. CONSIDERATIONS: On January 25, 2011, Agenda Item 10B, the Board approved to cease purchasing properties for the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program unless "a very good deal" comes forward. Ginnie Evans Poovey Kania, the heir of Carol Evans Triplett Estate, is desirous to convey a 10 acre parcel within the Mcllvane Marsh Preserve for the Conservation Collier Program. Acquisition of this parcel serves to further complete the protection of environmentally sensitive lands within the Mcllvane Marsh Preserve project area (see attached Location Map). Ms. Kania has expressed that she does not wish to spend any more money on this property, including paying for 2011 Property Taxes. The 2011 property taxes for this property are $300.55 if paid by March 31, 2012. According to the Collier County Tax Collector's office, an estimated payoff for the delinquent property taxes by the end of December 2012 would be less than $500. However, in order to ensure clear title, this property will need to go through the probate process prior to closing. At their January 9, 2012, meeting, the CCLAAC approved and voted to recommend Board approval and execution of a Donation Agreement. Also, CCLAAC recommended to provide assistance with the probate costs in an amount not to exceed $2,000, and to pay the delinquent 2011 property taxes at closing. The CCLAAC feels that this meets the Board's criteria for being a very good deal even with assisting with probate costs up to $2,000. Ms. Kania is agreeable and has been advised that she will need to supply the appropriate copies of invoices, bills, etc. for the specific work agreed upon to the County for County's review and approval prior to payment. Ms. Kania will hire a Probate Attorney to perform this work. Upon completion of the probate process and assurance of clear title, the accompanied standard form Donation Agreement and a Warranty Deed will be prepared for the County Attorney's Office review and approval for execution by the Chair and recordation. FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of the conveyance will not exceed $3,000 (up to $2,000 for the probate costs, up to $500 for payment of 2011 property taxes, and approximately $500 for the title commitment, title policy, and recording of documents). The Real Property Management's Review Appraiser values this 10 acre parcel at $25,000. The funds will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier Trust Fund (172). Because of its environmental condition and its proximity to the existing Mcllvane Marsh Preserve, this 10 acre donation is not anticipated to increase the Mcllvane Marsh Preserve perpetual operations and maintenance cost estimates that have already been considered by the CCLAAC and incorporated into the Conservation Collier Long Term Financial Management Plan. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Fee simple acquisition of conservation lands is consistent with and supports Policy 1.3.1(e) in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan. ^ Packet Page -2053- 1/24/2012 Item 16.E.4. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Should the Board approve this item, the remaining matters to be completed will be in keeping with Board direction set forth herein and fully ministerial in nature, so that the remaining process can be handled administratively by staff and this Office. This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is legally sufficient, and requires majority vote for approval. -JAK RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the Board: 1) Approves and accepts a standard form Donation Agreement and Warranty Deed once they have been received and approved by the County Attorney's Office; 2) Authorizes the Chairman to execute the Donation Agreement and any and all other County Attorney's Office approved documents related to this transaction; and 3) 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.
