Summary: In December 2000 St. Petersburg Junior College (now SPC) donated 32.32 acres, more or less, of its Joe DiMaggio Complex to the City for potential development of the new Phillies training facility. The former landfill property was conveyed by Quitclaim Deed and accepted by the City in "as is" condition. SPC retained the 5.42 acre portion of the complex improved with gym, lockers and tennis courts to assess potential future uses for that property. The City entered into a 4-year lease of the property that will expire on September 30, 2004. Following its assessment, SPC determined the remaining property was not a viable asset for its future plans. Fogarty & Finch Appraisers valued the property for SPC in May 2002 at $2,200,000. Following discussions with SPC, senior City management expressed interest in acquiring the remainder parcel to either operate as an indoor recreation facility, or demolish and incorporate it lands in a future redevelopment of the entire 37.74 acre site. James M. Millspaugh, MAl, performed an appraisal for the City May 18, 2004 and valued the property at $2,050,000 assuming no landfill characteristics that might modify that value. SPC and City management established the $2,125,000 purchase price at the average of the two appraisals, subject to approval by each entity's governing officials. As with the earlier property donation, the subject parcel is being acquired "as is" with closing to occur prior to the September 30, 2004 lease termination. To fund this purchase, new capital improvement project 315-93130 will be established in third quarter transferring available open space and recreational land impact fees in the amount of $1,884,555.19 that are available in the Special Development Fund, and approve an intrafund transfer from the undesignated balance in the Special Development Fund in the amount of $241,994.81 to be paid from future receipts of open space and recreation land impact fees, interest to be paid at the cash pool rate. A copy of the purchase agreement is available for review in the Office of Official Records and Legislative Services.
