Two of the lots, at Bay Street in 1973 and 2015, were developed with single-family homes. In 2006, the County Manager approved CMA #5907, creating a program to offer temporary housing in unoccupied County- owned homes for new employees, existing employees under special circumstances, and interns. The Bay Street homes are used in the temporary housing program and are currently vacant. Warrior Homes of Collier, Inc. (“Warriors”) recently requested they be used for veterans' housing. The proposed lease was developed using the County’s Standard Form Long-Term Lease. Notable terms: 1. Term – One-year initial term with automatic one renewal terms unless either party provides 30 days' written notice of termination. 2. Rent --$1,000 per month. Each home has an estimated fair market rental value between $1,800 and $2,000 monthly. Per Section 125.38 of the Florida Statutes, the property may be leased to a nonprofit organization at below fair market value without advertisement. A resolution with the necessary findings is included as back-up. 3. Costs – Warriors is responsible for all costs and fees, such as utilities. 4. Maintenance- Warriors is responsible for minor repairs and maintenance of the Property, including, but not limited to, unclogging drains, maintaining and repairing garbage disposals, and addressing minor issues related to structural and mechanical systems (e.g., door hinges, faucet leaks, and light bulb replacements).

Insurance: Warriors must maintain comprehensive general liability and property damage insurance with minimum limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, insuring against liability for bodily injury, property damage, and personal injury arising from the Lessee’s use or occupancy of the premises. 6.

Warriors must monitor and report occupancy, maintain documentation and maintenance logs, uphold tenant policies, and complete an annual HUD INSPIRE inspection to ensure safety and quality standards. The County’s Community and Human Services Division Grants Compliance Unit will conduct the annual monitoring. The arrangement as proposed by Warriors is consistent with the Collier County Land Development Code. FISCAL IMPACT: The annual rent of $12,000 shall be paid in equal monthly installments of $1,000. The rent shall be deposited within the Parks Impact Fee Fund (3071), Operating Project 31346. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan.

Page 506 of 5419 t EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase for seven residential lots east of the County's Bayview Park at a cost not to exceed $1,129,400. John Dunnuck) . OBJECTIVE: To acquire property for the expansIon of beach and boat access opportunities for the community. CONSIDERATION: The Board of County Commissioners approved the Beach Access and Boat Launch Master Plan in May 2003, which outlined a project to purchase property sUITounding Bayview Park. The Board more recently authorized staff to utilize real estate incentives to encourage land and homeowners to sell this property to the County. Following this authorization, staff began fonnally negotiating the purchase of seven lots in the targeted area from Terra Homes, Inc. (Seller). These lots were slated for construction of speculation homes valued in the mid-$240,000. In fact, two of the properties have homes now under constrnction that are nearing completion. In an effort to further prevent these homes from continuing in private ownership, staff has negotiated a purchase Agreement with TeITa Homes, Inc. The Agreement provides for the purchase of two certified-for-occupancy homes and five vacant lots for the price of $1,115,000. Two independent appraisals were secured indicating a range in value of between $758,000 and $808,000. The difference in the appraised value and asking price is Seller's anticipated profit that Nould be realized from the sale of the five vacant lots as if improved with homes and sold at a price of $240,000 each. The Agreement further provides that should the County elect not to close the transaction for any reason, except for default by Seller, the County will pay Seller 50,000 as liquidated damages. Because the purchase price is higher than the average of the appraisals, approval of the Agreement will require an affirmative vote of not less than four members of the Board supennajority vote). This will be the first step in a long-term acquisition program of assembling properties for beach and boat access from Bayview Park. As such, the County anticipates receivingoffsettingrevenuefromtherentalofthesetwohomesaswellasotherhomesacquiredas part of this program. The attached Agreement has been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney'sOfficeandPublicServicesDivision.
