| BACKGROUND: |
Meeting in regular session on December 8, 2016, the Board approved for staff to pursue the acquisition of properties that are listed within the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) and located along Eleven Mile Creek.
Escambia County had an appraisal performed on this property valued at $223,000. The property owners have provided their own appraisal valued at $250,400. The average of the County appraisal and the owner-provided appraisal is $236,700.
Mr. and Mrs. Hedges are willing to sell their property that is located in Bristol Park Subdivision along Eleven Mile Creek.
According to the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Homeowner Acquisition Fact Sheet, the property owners can appeal the County's appraisal if they believe the fair market value of their home is not adequate. The appeal process does include a second appraisal for their home at their expense. The County will then split the difference of the initial appraisal and second appraisal to determine the fair market value of the home, after which the County may make another offer.
Funds spent toward this project, and in accordance with the guidelines, are eligible for reimbursement
