District Impacted: District 1
Type: Resolution
Subject: Quit Claim Deed - Allapattah Ventures
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 east of Northwest
14th Avenue, more particularly described in Exhibit A, containing approximately 275
square feet, more or less; and quit claiming said parcel of land, pursuant to Section
255.22 Florida Statutes, to the to the successor in interest of the original dedicator,
Allapattah Ventures, LLC., a Florida Limited Liability company, and authorizing and
directing the City Manager to execute a quit claim deed, in a form acceptable to the City
Attorney, in favor of Allapattah Ventures, LLC., a Florida Limited Liability company.
Backaround 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 June 14, 1957 through execution of warranty deed as recorded
in Official Record Book 329, Page 112 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, re -
platting 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.
