Discussion ensued regarding the damages to the parcel, the $45,700 severance damage <br />fee, concerns over the high cost of this transaction, and the need to strategize future right-of-way <br />for roads. <br />Attorney Polackwich pointed out that the settlement that came out of mediation is <br />equivalent to a 100% victory by the County, if it were to be taken to trial; and settlement could <br />not be reached with the Abazi appraisal fee of $24,000, therefore, the County reserved <br />jurisdiction to have the Court determine the reasonableness of the fee. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman Wheeler, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Davis, to approve staff's <br />recommendation. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan said he would support the motion realizing that it is necessary to <br />move forward, but would do so under protest. The other commissioners agreed. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the <br />Motion carried. The Board unanimously approved the <br />Mediated Settlement Agreement for Parcel 134 at a price <br />of $68,600, with the two curb cuts, sod and related <br />improvements. Also included are attorney's fees and costs <br />for a total acquisition price of $93,278, with the amount of <br />the appraiser s fee to be determined by the Court, all as <br />recommended in the memorandum of December 13, 2010. <br />The Chairman said it was a unanimous vote under protest. <br />At 9:34 a.m., Chairman Solari closed the Board of County Commission (BCC) meeting to <br />conduct the Solid Waste Disposal District (SWDD) meeting. <br />16 <br />December 21, 2010 <br />
