"SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTORSdIi"1 <br />DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: COUNTY REAL PROPERTY- SURPLUS SALE <br />43RD STREET & 33RD AVENUE IN GIFFORD <br />BACKGROUND: <br />A County area Church has made an inquiry requesting to purchase a <br />County owned lot on 43rd Street and 33rd Avenue, Gifford. Florida <br />State Statues 125.35 provides for the sale of surplus public property <br />by sealed bids after proper advertisement. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />A survey of all County Departments was made to ascertain whether or <br />not this property could be used in the future for their individual <br />operations. All responses indicated the land was of no value within <br />their responsibility. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />Based on the fact the County has no need for this property staff <br />recommends it be declared surplus. It is also requested that <br />t authorization be granted to proceed with sale to the public in <br />accordance with state statues. <br />Administrator Chandler explained that the County has no need <br />for the subject property, which is a vacant 88 x 60 foot lot, and <br />this lot may be suitable for development of affordable housing. <br />Staff recommends that we declare the lot surplus, contact the non- <br />profit agencies to see if they are interested in purchasing it for <br />affordable housing; and if the non-profit agencies are not <br />interested, advertise it for sale. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously agreed to <br />declare as surplus the County -owned lot on 43rd <br />Street and 33rd Avenue in Gifford, contact area non- <br />profit agencies to find out whether they are <br />interested in purchasing it for affordable housing; <br />and if the non-profit agencies are not interested in <br />the property, to advertise it for sale, as <br />recommended by staff. <br />9' <br />D�A� 1994 BOOK 91 UGF 911 <br />
