2011, AND THE SUBSEQUENT "LETTER OF ENGAGEMENT" BETWEEN CHAPEL HILL
APPRAISALS AND CONSULTANTS (PROVIDER), AND ORANGE COUNTY (A BODY POLITIC
AND CORPORATE OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA).
Dear Mr.Lindley,
Per paragraph nine (9) of the referenced Service Agreement, the following is an Amendment to that Service
Agreement and Engagement Letter, and herein are the understood and agreed changes in the Basic Service,
entitlement of additional compensation,and a change in the duration of the Agreement as described herein.
Chapel Hill Appraisals & Consultants shall provide an appraisal of the opinion of the Market Value(Before the
Takin and the Market Value(After the Taking)by Orange County for the two(2)additional properties identified
in Attachment A of this Amendment, and as generally referenced as the Central Efland &North Buckhorn Sewer
Extension projects (dated 08/10/2011). G.S. Chapter 40A (Eminent Domain) will be followed when developing
opinions of value.
"Before Value"will be based on the existing use of each property.The appraiser will consider the Highest and Best
Use of each property before the taking in order to develop an opinion of fair market value.
"After Value" or Remainder Market Value will be based on the Highest and Best Use of each property after the
taking. The opinion of fair market value for the Remainder will consider the impact of the taking,to each property.
Scope of the appraisal report is to set forth the opinion of the Market Value Before the taking and the Market
Value After the taking by Orange County for the above referenced properties. The process will involve the
collecting and analyzing of pertinent data, considering market trends, developing an opinion of each of the
properties before and after Market Value and reporting the findings in a written report. At inspection the
characteristics and features of each property will be noted. In addition, research and analysis of information
regarding each properties neighborhood,competitive market,and historical data will be completed.
The following is a summary of the assignment activities involved,but are not limited to:
• Each property will be inspected,to observe,note and photograph site features and the improvements
thereon(if any)including exterior building measurements as necessary.
• Public Records will be researched to compile and confirm information necessary to properly identify
and describe each property,its ownership,history,tax status and the affect from any relevant recorded
documents.
• Zoning Regulations will be researched to confirm legal uses of each property's neighborhood,its
competitive market,trends and factors related to each properties highest and best use,
• Market Sales Data will be researched and analyzed of similar(or as similar as possible or available)for
closed sales of comparable properties,both within the defined neighborhood(if any)and within the
expanded market area as needed to develop credible reports.
It is hereby understood and agreed by all parties that in completing this appraisal assignment that collaboration with
certain other appraisal peers is anticipated,understood and agreed as a component of completing this assignment.
It is hereby agreed that Orange County will be invoiced simultaneously upon delivery of the Appraisals which shall
be delivered on or before 5 PM, Friday, September YVO11. Any additional time incurred by our requested or
required attendance to any Orange County meetings/he ngs and/or court proceedings related to this assignment
will be invoiced separately as described below. 77
The fee for providing Appraisals on these additional properties is $5,750.00. Terms are net at billing, 1.5% per
month late fee thereafter. Full written reports will be billed separately, as needed, at an administrative fee of 20%
each.
It must be noted that this fee does not include any court testimony or expert witness testimony for deposition. That
will incur an additional fee at a rate of $150.00 per hour, which includes any preparation time, travel time,
deposition time, court preparation, any governmental related appearances, and waiting time related to any of the
above. If for any reason an opposing side subpoenas us for any testimony/depositions, etc, Orange County will be
ultimately responsibility for payment to us as a witness, regardless if as an expert witness or a fact witness at the
above billing rate.
Intended Use and Users (as generally defined in the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice —
USPAP)are as follows: Intended Use is to provide Orange County with Appraisals on each property describing the
Market Value(Before the Takinel and the Market Value(After the TakinQl by Orange County for the properties
identified in Attachment A and as generally referenced as the Central Efland& North Buckhorn Sewer Extension
projects while observing G.S. Chapter 40A. The Intended User shall be exclusively limited to Orange County, its
employees, third party consultants and staff for the purpose of negotiating appropriate easements (including
potential value loss, if any) for the eventual construction of a public sewer line per the provided drawings. The
Intended User does not include any member of the General Public or other third party or entity.
It is mutually understood that the developed opinions of value (as described herein) might be obtained through a
Public Records request and that if such a request is made of Orange County, its employees, staff or third party
consultants then the requesting party shall be fully identified to Chapel Hill Appraisals as quickly as is practical,
including name and complete contact information.
I have not performed any services regarding these properties (other than providing a general opinion of the value
ranges of properties in the general vicinity of these sewer extension projects)within the immediate prior three years
of this assignment,as an appraiser or in any other capacity.
