Purpose of Item: A Resolution, pursuant to Section 255.22 of Florida Statutes, to vacate, discontinue, and abandon a portion of the northern side of Northwest 35th Street between NW 3 Avenue and NW 5 Avenue, more particularly described in Exhibit A, containing approximately 402 square feet, more or less; and quit claiming said parcel of land, pursuant to Section 255.22 Florida Statutes, to the successor in interest of the original dedicator, Peter Hellegers and Sarah E. Hellegers, husband and wife, and authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute a quit claim deed, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, in favor of N&H Property Investments, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company. Background of Item: Pursuant to Section 255.22, Florida Statutes a municipality may deliver a quitclaim deed to an adjoining property owner, or their successor, when land that was conveyed to the municipality by the adjoining property owner was not used for that specific purpose for over sixty (60) consecutive months or the proposed use was not identified in a comprehensive plan or other public facilities plan during the same period. In this matter, the subject property sought to be reconveyed was initially conveyed to the City on December 26, 1956 through execution of warranty deed as recorded in Deed Book 13, Page 277 and Official Records Book 2896, Page 422 of Miami -Dade County, for the specific purpose of usage for street and/or sidewalk. The City has not constructed the improvements contemplated in the Warranty Deed or maintained the conveyed property in a period in excess of sixty months. The conveyed property is not necessary for road widening purposes. The current owner, as successor of the original dedicator, is developing the property and planning to utilize the conveyed property. The conveyed property is not buildable by itself and is not a waterfront property. Notwithstanding the platting requirements for vacation and closure of right of way of Chapter 55 of the City Code, the Florida Statutes allows the adjoining owner to demand a reconveyance of the unused portion of the property, which was conveyed by deed, and was not dedicated by plat, to be reconveyed. The City can issue a quitclaim deed to accomplish the reconveyance in order to facilitate the re -development, divest the City of un-necessary right of way and un-useable property.
