Bennett:- Vle huvo been asked to express our opinion as to the value of a small trangular l?ieco of land lying ldoxth of the Falconer apartments on Cseeola Kvenue, and on the south line of City owned prop orty oooupied by the Woman's Club. '?1e have exairrined Dopy of a survey made by I`lr. Leo Butler indicating that this ship of land runs from Osceola to the bay, and that it is approximately 11+ feet wide at the bay and conies to an apex at Osceola from an examination of the property it appears that this strip of land has been actually used and occupied by the r'alconer family for more than twenty years. But it appears that this property technically belongs to the City because of some discrepancy in surveys, ti'le understand that the Falconer family desires to clarify tiffs title by obtaining a deed #'rom the City of Clearvaater covering the small triangular piece of land above mentioned. Under the circumstances as they exis?L, it is our opinion that the City of Clearwater would not be justified in aski?? consideration of more than j?25.U0 for a deed conveying its interest in tlhis sr?all strip of land. Very truly yours, Z.lt. Capes -signed C. K. Charles -signed Members o#' the appraisal Con?nittee ?:??. .?t ,? . `r.: ;:i,?i?l?S 4', ?;: . ????, ,,{, :,. , .? :?; ?. ;? ?
