Gila County's Purchase of State-owned Tax Parcel Number 102-13-032-F

Background Information

A.R.S. § 42-18303 (E) states, "The board of supervisors may accept an offer from, and sell real property held by this state by tax deed to, the county or a city, town or special taxing district in the county for a public purchase related to transportation or flood control. The board of supervisors shall convey the deed and apportion the monies received in the transaction prescribed by this action." The Board of Supervisors is statutorily authorized to sell these properties under the following statute:

In 2013, Assessor's parcel number 102-13-032-F was deeded to the State of Arizona c/o Board of Supervisors. An auction was held that year and it did not sell at the auction; therefore, it was added to a list of properties that are available for purchase year-round.

Evaluation

This parcel is a road called Coles Way and it is located off of Pinal View Drive, Ice House Canyon, Globe, Arizona. Steve Sanders, Public Works Division Director, would like the County to purchase the parcel as it can be used for a public purpose for transportation or flood control. The Board of Supervisors previously adopted a policy regarding the sale of any State-owned land that is in the care of the Board of Supervisors. The lien amount on this property is $1,538.64; however, it meets the requirement to sell the property for a lesser amount.

Conclusion

It would be advantageous to sell the subject parcel to Gila County for $1 as it will be used for a public purpose for transportation or flood control.

Recommendation

It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors consider selling the subject property to Gila County.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to approve the sale of Assessor's tax parcel number 102-13-032-F to Gila County for $1 so that it can be used for a public purpose related to transportation or flood control pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute § 42-18303 (E); and authorize the Chairman's signature on the related Quit Claim Deed.
