Commissioner Davis used an aerial map of the McKellar and County Utilities parcels to <br />convey additional details on the proposed property exchange. He stated that although there is <br />no inherent benefit for the County to approve the swap, neither are there drawbacks. In addition, <br />he related that a portion of 31St Avenue used for public right-of-way goes directly through Mr. <br />McKellar's property, and the property exchange would rectify this situation. He conveyed that <br />he wished to address any concerns held by the Commissioners, County Attorney, and/or staff and <br />provide Mr. McKellar with an answer to his request. He added that the proposed zoning change <br />should be addressed separately. <br />Vice Chairman O'Bryan questioned whether a zoning change could be combined with a <br />property exchange. <br />Attorney Polackwich advised that property exchanges require public notice and an <br />authorizing Resolution by statute and a zoning change cannot be included in the agreement <br />He also counseled the Board to obtain an appraisal to ensure that the two parcels are equivalent <br />in value. <br />Mr. McKellar said he was not opposed to an appraisal; however, he recalled a prior <br />instance when he gave the County right-of-way in exchange for additional footage, and no <br />appraisal had been obtained. <br />(Clerk's Note: For Board action relative to this item, please see Item] 2.J.1.
