BACKGROUND: In the spring of 2013, the Board authorized the County Manager to enter into discussions with two property owners regarding three properties adjacent to the SportsPlex that, if acquired by the County, could provide parking and future expansion area for the SportsPlex. The County is complete with its title, soils, environmental, cultural, and archaeological due diligence regarding the three parcels adjacent to the Orange County SportsPlex. All reports in these areas are satisfactory. The closing survey is forthcoming and will be complete prior to closing. Appraisals from a mutually agreed upon Appraiser, John McBrayer of Williams Appraisals, indicate the following fair market value: 1. $190,000 for the 1.5 acre Wesley and Alice Woods property, or $126,667 per acre. 2. $170,000 for the 1.36 acre McCauley property, or $125,000 per acre. Each owner has vertical house structures on the property that may be of some use to the SportsPlex during the development and construction phases of its expansion. The structures may also be candidates for relocation and adaptive re -use for affordable housing. The sellers of the properties have agreed to sell the County the properties for the following sales prices: 1. $200,000 for the 1.5 acre Wesley and Alice Woods property; 2. $182,000 for the 1.36 acre Gene McCauley property. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The total purchase price is estimated at $382,000. Final settlement costs are estimated at $1,500 and will be determined by the closing Attorney. The acquisition of the properties will be made with an appropriation of $382,000 from the General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance. The General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance is approximately $36.5 million. With approval of Budget Amendment #2 (also on the October 15, 2013 Board agenda), $215,539 will have been appropriated from the Unassigned Fund Balance prior to this proposed action to appropriate $382,000. Settlement costs will be paid from existing budgeted funds within the SportsPlex Enterprise Fund.
