THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/FACILITIES MANAGEMENT DIVISION/REAL PROPERTY SECTION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
The two 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 5041-04-21-1200 and is comprised of an irregular parcel within the Canterbury Plat Book 92, Page 47 Subdivision located at NW 79th Avenue in Plantation. It measures approximately 60 feet by 153 feet, containing approximately 9,147 square feet. It is unsuitable for development due to its size and configuration. The triangular shape of the parcel requires zoning set-backs on all sides rendering the site too small for residential development.
Parcel 2 - Identified by Folio Number 5041-06-05-0071 and is comprised of a landlocked rectangular parcel within the Valmoral Parcel 540 Plat 106, Page 49 Subdivision located at NW 110th Terrace in Plantation. It measures approximately 19 feet by 20 feet, containing approximately 378 square feet. It is unsuitable for development due to its small size.
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. |
