THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/FACILITIES MANAGEMENT DIVISION/REAL PROPERTY SECTION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
The parcels of land escheated to Broward County for non-payment of taxes. Titles were conveyed to the County via tax deeds pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 197.502(8) since there were no bidders at public sale. Details of each parcel not suitable for further development are as follows:
Parcel 1 - Identified by Folio Number 5040-31-01-0092 and is located at SW 52nd Court in FLA FRUIT LANDS CO Subdivision in Southwest Ranches. It measures approximately 35 feet by 305 feet, containing approximately 10,677 square feet. It is unsuitable for development due to its composition as a canal.
Parcel 2 - Identified by Folio Number 5040-35-01-0063 and is located at Stirling Road in FLA FRUIT LANDS CO Subdivision in Southwest Ranches. It measures approximately 25 feet by 625 feet, containing approximately 11,967 square feet. It is unsuitable for development due to its composition as a canal.
All applicable County agencies were solicited for potential County use of the properties or rights therein; no current or future use was identified. The former owners of these properties did not file a verified application seeking a return of their respective property. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 197.592(3), properties escheated to the County for delinquent ad valorem taxes which have not been previously sold or dedicated and which have not been conveyed to the former record fee simple owner, shall be conveyed to the municipality in which the properties are located.
All documents have been reviewed and approved as to form by the Office of the County Attorney.
