Recommendation Concerning the Conveyance of a Portion of Real Property Located at 3085 and 3105 Robertson Road - Joy Jones, P.E., Engineering Department Director

That the Board take the following action concerning the conveyance of a portion of real property, located at 3085 and 3105 Robertson Road, to Jerry David Westmoreland:

A. Authorize conveyance of a Quit Claim Deed to Jerry David Westmoreland, to confirm the return of this portion of real property previously conveyed to Escambia County in 1995; and

B. Authorize the Chairman or Vice Chairman to execute the Quit Claim Deed, and have it recorded at the County's expense in the Clerk of the Court Public Records.

This property is located in Commission District 2.

[Funding: Funds for incidental expenses associated with the recording of documents are available in an Engineering Escrow Account accessed by the Escambia County Clerk's Office]

BACKGROUND:

On December 31, 1979, Mr. Westmoreland conveyed a 10-foot Access and Drainage Easement to Escambia County.

On November 15, 1995, Mr. Westmoreland conveyed a strip of real property 10 feet wide x 277 feet long on the southern portion of his property and conveyed a strip of real property 8 feet wide x 304 feet long on the northern portion of his property to Escambia County.

Escambia County has not used the additional right-of-way that was obtained from Mr. Westmoreland for infrastructure or improvements. Therefore, Mr. Westmoreland has asked that the County convey the real property back to him. The Access and Drainage Easement will remain in effect.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

Funds for incidental expenses associated with recording of documents are available in an Engineering Escrow Account accessed by the Escambia County Clerk's Office.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:

The Quit Claim Deed was approved as to form and legal sufficiency by Stephen G. West, Senior Assistant County Attorney.

PERSONNEL:

All work associated with this request is being done in-house and no additional staff is required.

POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION:

Upon Board approval, Escambia County staff will proceed in compliance with Section 46-139 of the Escambia County Code of Ordinances.

IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:

Upon Board approval, staff will have the Quit Claim Deed recorded in the public records of Escambia County, Florida.
