| BACKGROUND: |
| On April 7, 2011, the County, through the exercise of its power of eminent domain, acquired certain real property for the purpose of maintaining a system of groundwater monitoring wells located south of the Perdido Landfill. These wells are monitored pursuant to an amended consent order and remedial action plan approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The County's obligation to maintain groundwater monitoring wells on the property, as required by FDEP, is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, and constitutes a need to acquire a recorded Access Easement. Whereas the appraised value of the easement property is valued at $6,000, the County acknowledges that it should share in the cost of usage, care and maintenance over the life of the improved property. Therefore, the contract price of the Access Easement is $30,000. Approval of this contract amount will require a super majority vote. |
| BUDGETARY IMPACT: |
Funding for this project is available in Fund 401, Solid Waste Fund, Cost Center 230315, Projects, Object Code 56801.
