Recommended Action:
I RECOMMEND THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS (BCC) APPROVE THE ATTACHED CONTRACT
FOR SALE AND PURCHASE, AUTHORIZE THE ISSUANCE OF A CHECK IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,350.00 TO
ALDAY-DONALSON TITLE COMPANY, AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIRMAN TO SIGN AND THE CLERK TO
ATTEST.
Summarv ExplanationlBacknround:
This property consists of approximately 498 square feet of an improved lot lying within the Keystone Road Capital
Improvement Project. The property is located within the unincorporated area of Pinellas County and is zoned
Agricultural Estate Residential District with a land use designation of Residential Rural. The attached Contract for
Sale and Purchase represents a negotiated agreement.
The acquisition of this property is necessary to widen Keystone Road and is within the project‘s scope. This project
is in agreement with the Metropolitan Planning Organization’s 2025 Long Range Transportation Plan.
This property is located in Section 9, Township 27 South, Range 16 East and the owners are James Brent Bronson
and Robin Marie Bronson.
The $5,350.00 check for closing includes $5,000.00 for the property and $350.00 for title insurance. The $5,000.00
purchase price includes $3,250.00 for a value adjustment over the appraised value to reach a negotiated
agreement with the sellers. This negotiated agreement, if approved, avoids the expense of other professional fees
such as engineering, attorney fees, and additional appraisal services associated with eminent domain actions,
which the County would be required to pay, if awarded by a final judgment in lieu of this recommended negotiated
settlement amount. The $1,750.00 property value was determined by an independent appraisal performed for this
transaction, in accordance with Florida Statute 125.355 and Chapter 3.3.2, “Real Estate Procedures,” as adopted
by the BCC on August 21,2001.

COMMENTS:
Property Appraiser’s parent tract values:
$552,500.00 Just/Market Value ($5.22 psi)
$627,500.00 Comparable Sales Value ($5.93 psf)
$3 18,500.00 Land Value ($3.01 psf)
The County’s appraiser valued this 498 square foot parcel at $1,750.00 ($3.51 psf).
0
The variance between the values is due to 1) the different appraisal methodology allowed
by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, 2) the Property Appraiser’s
Just/Market Value is typically 10 to 20 percent less than the actual free market value, and
3) appraisal professionals universally acknowledge the inflated value governments must
pay for Capital Improvement Project ( C P ) acquisitions. The “fiee market value,’’ driven
by a willing seller and a willing buyer, equally motivated to sell and buy, does not exist
in government CIP acquisitions. A seller, unhappy about the project and loss of his
property, is not inclined to sell at anything less than an inflated value and believes the
closer the project start date, the more apt the government will be to pay a higher value.
0
The $3,250.00 value adjustment is recommended to avoid the expense of other
professional fees such as engineering, attorney fees, and additional appraisal services
associated with eminent domain actions, which the County would have to pay, if awarded
by a final judgment in lieu of this recommended negotiated settlement amount.
