Agenda Date: November 23, 2020 '
Subject: Notice of Intention to Surplus County Property,
Four Corners Road County Pit, APN 001333013
Attached: Notice of Public Hearing
Resolution: Notice of Intention to Surplus County Property to benefit
the ODT, Four Corners Road to Anderson Lake State Park Segment,
County Project No. 18019892
Statement of Issue:
During the course of right-of-way negotiation, Jefferson County PUD expressed interest in the
transfer of County property in exchange for an Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT) easement across
their Four Corners Road property. A Notice of Intention to Surplus County Property and a Public
Hearing are required prior to the surplus of County real property.
Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's Et Con's:
The Board has previously discussed this issue at a regular meeting on October 26, 2020.
Jefferson County Code Chapter 3.57, Rules for Sale, Disposition or Lease of County Surplus Real
Property, states that property can be transferred from agency to agency when property is
deemed surplus and is a public benefit. The transfer of this county owned property is necessary
in order to conclude the acquisition of an ODT trail easement across the PUD property.
Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis:
The difference in appraised value between the County property and the ODT easement will result
in approximately $12,700 in proceeds which, after associated sale expenses are deducted, will be
returned to the fund that originally purchased the property.
Recommendation:
Approve Resolution for Notice of Intention to Surplus County Property and Notice of Public
Hearing.
