Quit Claim Deed for Sale of Assessor's Tax Parcel No. 102-31-013-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 102-31-013-G was deeded to the State of Arizona in 2012 with a lien amount of $761.30. It did not sell at the Board of Supervisors' annual tax sale/auction that was held on December 6, 2016; therefore, it was added to the list of properties that could be purchased year-round for the total lien amount. The subject property is an road access between 955 E. Ranch Creek Road in the El Capitan Area.

Evaluation

On May 11, 2017, the Clerk of the Board deposited a cashier's check in the amount of $761.30 from Douglas James Tucker with the Gila County Treasurer for the purchase of the subject property. The amount paid was the total lien amount. A separate $15 payment was 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 102-31-013-G. 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 Mr. Tucker.

Suggested Motion

Authorization of the Chairman's signature on the Quit Claim Deed for the Clerk of the Board's over-the-counter sale of Assessor's tax parcel number 102-31-013-G to Douglas James Tucker.
