Re: Collier County Acquisition from Curtis, Angelita and Robert Hodge
Parcels 808, 810 and 812
Dear Margaret:
In follow-up to our prior communications, I met with my clients, Angelita, Curtis and Robert
Hodge, regarding the above-referenced matter. I enclose herewith the executed originals of the Easement
Agreements, as executed by Angelita and Curtis Hodge, Jr. (as to Parcels 810 and 812) and Robert J.
Hodge (as to Parcel 808). Please note that in each of the documents, Paragraph 9 has been revised and
indicate the documentary stamps will be payable by the Purchaser instead of the Owner. At my meeting,
my clients noted that this is a forced transaction and at the County's behest, and thus the County should
bear those expenses. In addition, pursuant to Attorney General's Opinion 94-56, I believe the County is
exempt from paying documentary stamps on this transaction, so it should not affect the business terms.
The Easement Agreements contemplate the execution by my clients of a Drainage Easement.
You have provided to me the form of that Drainage Easement, and I have sent to you a January 22, 2007
e-mail summarizing revisions to same. I enclose herewith the revised Drainage Easement which my
clients anticipate executing as part of this transaction. Kindly review the Drainage Easement, as revised.
with the appropriate County personnel. and provide me any comments.
Thank you for your assistance. Please contact me should you have any questions concerning the
foregoing.
