BCC Agenda 02/13/2024 Item #16K 7 (Stipulated Final Judgment for the taking of parcels for the Vanderbilt Beach Extension Project)02/13/2024 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve a Stipulated Final Judgment in the amount of $140,800 plus $32,066 in statutory attorney fees, apportionment fees, expert fees and costs for the taking of Parcels 1125FEE and 1127FEE required for the Vanderbilt Beach Road Extension Project No. 60168. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ OBJECTIVE: To settle full compensation for the taking of Parcels 1125FEE and 1127FEE required for the construction of the Vanderbilt Beach Road Extension Project No. 60168. CONSIDERATIONS: On September 22, 2020, the Board authorized, via Resolution No. 2020-175, the condemnation of Parcels 1125FEE and 1127FEE for the construction of roadway, drainage and utility improvements required for the expansion and extension of Vanderbilt Beach Road from Collier Boulevard to east of 16th Street NE and Massey Street from Vanderbilt Beach Road to south of Mockingbird Drive. The two parcels are owned by the same property owners, Carl Doan and Hai Vu. The fee simple acquisition area for each parcel consists of a strip taking along the rear, southerly boundary of each property and is approximately 0.38 acres in extent. The parent tracts are unimproved land that each contain 2.5 acres of gross land area, which will be reduced to 2.12 acres per property after the acquisition. Aerial photographs of the subject properties are attached. The County’s order of taking appraisals concluded to a value of $50,800 per parcel including severance damages. The property owner’s initial demand per parcel was $96,500 plus attorney’s fees and expert fees and costs. The parties participated in informal negotiations and reached a proposed agreement subject to Board approval. The attached Stipulated Final Judgment reflects a negotiated compensation amount of $70,400 plus $10,494 in statutory attorney’s fees, $379 in apportionment fees, $5,160 in expert fees and costs, for a total of $86,433 for each parcel. 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 $101,600 for its total deposit of the good faith estimates of value for both parcels. Funds for the balance of $71,266 are available in the Vanderbilt Beach Road Extension Project Capital Fund, Project 60168. 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.
