Internal Mgmt. & Fiscal Responsibility Committee	12/14/2006	2C	Forwarded to BCC with a favorable recommendation				P
REPORT:	Assistant County Attorney Gerald Sanchez read the foregoing proposed resolution into the record. In response to Commissioner Moss’ inquiry regarding the amount of property involved, Ms. Wendy Norris noted it was close to three (3) acres encompassing a lake, a swimming pool, a clubhouse, and a tennis/racquetball court, all common area for the development. She explained that the developer failed to convey this property to the homeowners’ association upon completion of the development causing it to revert back to the County for nonpayment of taxes. This property was reassessed as common area and would be rightfully conveyed to the homeowners association.
