Quit Claim Deed for Sale of Assessor's Tax Parcel No. 304-14-004-G

Background Information

On May 26, 2015, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 15-05-05 which outlines the policy and procedures for the sale of land held by the State of Arizona under tax deed. The procedures allow the Clerk of the Board to sell these parcels over the counter for the total lien amount. A separate $15 fee is required to be paid by the purchaser in order to record the Quit Claim Deed. The procedures also state that a consent agenda action item will be submitted to the Board of Supervisors on a regular meeting agenda to obtain authorization from the Board for the Chairman's signature on the Quit Claim Deed.

Assessor's tax parcel number 304-14-004G was deeded to the State of Arizona in 2012. It did not sell at the Board of Supervisors' annual tax sale/auction; therefore, it was added to the list of properties that could be purchased year-round for the total lien amount. The subject property contains an old well site on Forest Service land in Payson that has not been in use. It's located by Main Street and Peach Orchard Road, and across the street from the Payson Golf Course.

Evaluation

On March 7, 2016, the Clerk of the Board deposited a cashier's check from Hannelore R. Inman in the amount of $438.32 with the Gila County Treasurer for the purchase of the subject property. The amount paid was the total lien amount. A separate check in the amount of $15 was also submitted to record the Quit Claim Deed.

Conclusion

The Board of Supervisors needs to authorize the Chairman's signature on the Quit Claim Deed for the sale of Assessor's tax parcel number 304-14-004-G so that it can be recorded and later mailed to Ms. Inman. Once the deed has been finalized and recorded, it will go back on the County's tax rolls.

Recommendation

The Clerk of the Board recommends that the Board of Supervisors authorize the Chairman's signature on a Quit Claim Deed to finalize the sale of the subject property to Hannelore R. Inman.

Suggested Motion

Authorization of the Chairman's signature on the Quit Claim Deed for the sale of Assessor's tax parcel number 304-14-004-G to Hannelore R. Inman.
