BACKGROUND:
Escambia County purchased 5 contiguous parcels for the purpose of building a public boat ramp and other water-dependent and outdoor public uses. The fence is only fronting 1 of the 5 parcels and is not needed for the boat ramp. The upcoming boat ramp construction includes demolition of the fence. Escambia County has received notice of potential interest in obtaining the fence for reuse or recycling.
The metal fence is approximately 5 feet tall and 300 feet long. It must be removed by cutting away the existing concrete footer and brick columns. The concrete footer and brick columns must not be damaged. The fence will be sold AS IS, WHERE IS, and must be removed within 10 calendar days of payment of the successful bid.
BUDGETARY IMPACT:
Sale of the fence will provide revenue for the LOST Fund (352).
