FROM: John Hofstad
SUBJECT: Corrective Deed for Right-of-way on Martin Mill Road
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BCC DISTRICT: Three
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Accept and record a warranty deed correcting a warranty deed
acquiring right-of-way for Martin Mill Road.
BACKGROUND and ANALYSIS: Public Works acquired the necessary right-of-way to
improve the east 1/2 mile of Martin Mill Road (a County owned and maintained road).The Board
of County Commissioners accepted the deeds and easements for recording at their regular
meeting on April 26, 1983. Improvements on this section of Martin Mill Road are complete.
Mr. James E. Courtney and wife Jewel Courtney donated their portion of Martin Mill Road right-
of-way to the County by warranty deed. The heirs of Mr. & Mrs. Courtney, son James Richard
Courtney and daughter Annette Whitlock have had their property surveyed and it has been
discovered that the centerline description was in error and does not match the existing location
of Martin Mill Road.
A new legal description has been created correcting the error and aligning with the existing
centerline of said roadway. Ms. Annette Whitlock, executor of her father's estate, has executed
the new instrument granting the Board right-of-way for Martin Mill Road along the north
boundary of the family estate.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the acceptance and recording of this corrective deed granting
the Board right-of-way for Martin Mill Road lying north and adjacent to the Courtney Estate.
