B. Authorize the payment of documentary stamps, considering that the property is being donated for governmental use and the County benefits from the acceptance of this property, which enhances the safety and well-being of the citizens of Escambia County;

C. Authorize the payment of incidental expenditures associated with the recording of the Quit Claim Deed; and

D. Authorize the Chairman or Vice Chairman to accept the Quit Claim Deed as of the day of delivery to the Chairman or Vice Chairman, and authorize the Chairman or Vice Chairman to acknowledge the Board's acceptance at that time.

BACKGROUND:

In 2012, Pensacola Habitat for Humanity conveyed a portion of Lot 1, Block D, of Camshire Meadows Subdivision to Escambia County (OR 6930 Page 1959) for the purpose of expanding the retention pond. In 2016, Pensacola Habitat for Humanity inadvertently conveyed all of Lot 1, Block D to Camshire Meadows Homeowners' Association, Inc. (OR 7581 Page 1723) instead of lessing and excepting the portion that was previously deeded to the county. In 2017, a corrective Quit Claim Deed (OR 7732 Page 205) was executed and recorded to correct the legal description on OR 7581 Page 1723.

In efforts to ensure that they have no interest in that portion of Lot 1, Block D, that was originally conveyed to the county, Camshire Meadows Homeowners' Association, Inc., would like to record this Quit Claim Deed.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

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

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:

The Quit Claim Deed was approved as to form and legal sufficiency by the County Attorney's office.

PERSONNEL:

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

POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION:

These actions are consistent with the provisions of Section 46-139, Escambia County Code of Ordinances.

IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:

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