The warranty deed for the transaction was not recorded and the parcel was subsequently foreclosed upon by the county assessor for delinquent taxes. Mr. Cory Walker legally purchased the parcel at “tax deed sale” from the County. Upon discovering it was not suitable as a buildable lot, Mr. Walker offered to sell the parcel to the City for the amount he paid to the County ($3,182) plus closing costs. Obtaining the parcel through other means such as a filing a Quiet Title action or Prescriptive Easement action would be more expensive and time consuming than accepting Mr. Walker’s offer. The Purchase Agreement is attached.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the Purchase and Sale of Agreement from Mr. Cory Walker for real property known as Assessor’s parcel RPM00000177975 for $3182.00 plus closing costs, and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION  July 26, 2018 Council approved the City Manager’s recommendation to proceed with negotiations with Mr. Walker.
