Summary:
Summary
Dedicating the County-owned parcel as public right-of-way is consistent with the current use of the parcel as a public sidewalk. This section of the sidewalk provides a continuous connection to the adjoining public sidewalk to the north and south.
Body
Background Information:
The County purchased the parent parcel in 1985 for McMullen Booth Road. The parent parcel was previously surplused by the Board, although the east 28 feet contains a public sidewalk that runs alongside McMullen Booth Road. The west 47 feet of the parent parcel (not needed by the County) was recently split off and sold by the County to the sole adjoining property owner to the west. Dedicating the east 28 feet as public right of way is consistent with the current use of the parcel and provides for a continuous connection with the adjoining sections of the public sidewalk to the north and south.
Fiscal Impact:
This resolution has no fiscal impact on Pinellas County.
