New Business - Real Estate

Title: RE-6 Riviera Beach Area High School (02-MMM)

Recommendation:
I recommend the School Board approve a Resolution authorizing the acquisition of certain real property consisting of 0.02 acres more or less, through eminent domain proceedings, for the New Riviera Beach Area High School; authorizing the Legal Department to hire an eminent domain attorney; approve a resolution declaring structure(s) located on the property to be acquired by the School Board to be unnecessary for educational purposes, surplus and without commercial value; and authorizing the Chairman and Superintendent to sign all necessary documents.

Description:

  • The FY 2006-2010 Five Year Plan includes the construction of a New Riviera Beach Area High School (02-MMM), scheduled for opening in August 2011.

 

  • The 0.02 acres, more or less, is located at 3100 Avenue “J”, Unit 1, Riviera Beach,  Florida. (See Parcel Maps Exhibit “A”).

 

  • Program Management, Planning and Boundaries have reviewed the subject property and support the site plan.

 

  • The owner is an unwilling seller due to Tax Liens filed by the Internal Revenue Service and other problems associated with the former owner’s estate.

 

  • Acquisition of this unit is needed to successfully complete the demolition of the 12-unit condominium of which the School District has already acquired 11 units.

 

  • A Phase I Environmental Audit has been completed on all the units.

 

  • In order to gain access and to facilitate the timely acquisition of this property it is necessary to use the eminent domain process.

 

  • This process provides a “quick taking” of the property, but does not limit negotiations with the owners to arrive at a contractual settlement including distribution of funds either before or after the Order of Taking.

 

Demolition - $8,000.00

 

 

Financial Impact:
The financial impact to the Project’s Budget is not to exceed $120,000.00.
