Quan Wang, et. al. Case No.: 16- CA-1399). _____________________________________________________________________________________ OBJECTIVE: To settle full compensation for the taking of Parcel 301RDUE required for the construction of the Golden Gate Expansion Project #60145. CONSIDERATIONS: On April 26, 2016, the Board authorized, via Resolution No. 2016-90, the condemnation of Parcel 301RDUE for the construction of roadway, drainage and utility improvements required for the expansion and extension of Golden Gate Blvd. from 20th Street East to Everglades Blvd. Parcel No. 301 RDUE is a perpetual, non-exclusive, road right-of-way, drainage, and utilities easement that consist of a strip taking along the northerly right-of-way of Golden Gate Boulevard E. and contains 0.32 acres. The parent tract contains 6.01 acres of vacant land area, which has been reduced to 5.69 acres of usable area as a result of the take, and is owned by DVAL, LLC. An aerial photograph of the subject property is attached. The County’s appraiser estimated full compensation at $7,800. The property owner’s initial demand was $58,000, plus attorney’s fees and expert fees and costs. The parties participated in informal negotiations and reached an agreement. The attached Stipulated Final Judgment reflects a negotiated compensation amount of $22,000, plus $4,950, statutory attorney’s fees and $1,810, in expert costs for a total of $28,760. The Transportation Engineering Division recommends approval of this Stipulated Final Judgment since a better result is not anticipated at trial. Upon approval, the County Attorney’s Office will file the Joint Motion and Stipulated Final Judgment with the Circuit Court. FISCAL IMPACT: The County is entitled to a credit of $7,800, for its deposit of the good faith estimate of value. Funds for the balance of $20,960 are available in the Golden Gate Blvd. Expansion Project Capital Fund, Project 60145. The primary funding source for the acquisition is impact fees. Should impact fees not be sufficient within the project, the secondary funding source will be gas taxes. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires a majority vote for Board approval. - CMG RECOMMENDATION: To approve the attached Joint Motion and Stipulated Final Judgment and authorize the payment of funds as stated herein.
