Recommendation Concerning the Authorization for Tax Deed Bidding for 56 Elcino Circle - Joy D. Blackmon, P.E., Director, Public Works Department
That the Board take the following action concerning the authorization for Tax Deed bidding for 56 Elcino Circle:
A. Authorize the County Engineer, or designee, to be an authorized bidder for the March 5, 2018, Tax Deed sale for the purpose of acquiring 56 Elcino Circle; and
B. Approve a maximum bid in the amount of $20,000.
[Funding sources: Fund 352, LOST III, Cost Center 210107, Object Code 56101 and Fund 181, Master Drainage Basin Fund 13, Cost Center 210731, Object Code 56101] |
| BACKGROUND: |
During the April 2014 flood event, the pond within the Shadow Grove Subdivision overtopped causing additional flooding within the residential area. After the flooding event, staff approached John and Tracey Shubert in efforts to buy 56 Elcino Circle, but were unsuccessful. The County was successful in purchasing 409 Elcino Drive, which is south of 56 Elcino Circle.
Since then, pond rehabilitation is underway and nearly complete with the anticipated completion date of May 2018.
56 Elcino does have an existing mortgage, code enforcement liens, as well as delinquent taxes going back to 2014.
If the County becomes a successful bidder, this property would allow for additional access and expansion, if needed. There is the possibility of this property eventually escheating to the County, however, this parcel could be purchased at the March 5th Tax Deed Sale by another entity. |
| BUDGETARY IMPACT: |
| Funding for this project is available in Fund 352 LOST III, Cost Center 210107, Object Code 56101 and Fund 181, Master Drainage Basin Fund 13, Cost Center 210731, Object Code 56101. |
| LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF: |
