Dear Mr. Meares: We have completed the required inspections, research, and analyses necessary to derive an opinion of the market value of the taking, and damage to the remainder, if any, for a proposed easement running along the west boundary of the Too Friends, LLC property. The appraisal analyses are consistent with the scope of work determined to be necessary to derive a credible result. It The accompanying appraisal report is a summary appraisal report. The purpose of the appraisal was to form an opinion of the market value of the taking, and damages to the remainder, if any. Just Compensation' In condemnation, the amount of loss for which a property owner is compensated when his of her property is taken; should put the owner in as good a position pecuniarily as he or she would be if the property has not been taken; generally held to be market value, but courts have refused to rule that it is always equivalent to market value. ( Just compensation is regarded the same as full compensation in Florida.) Damages' Generally, the -difference In condemnation; the -loss -by value, to=the-Remainder- in, a.-partial taking, of property.,:.- between the value of the whole property before the taking and the value ofthe Remainder after the taking is the measure ofthe value of the part taken and the damages to the Remainder. Three types of damages are recognized: consequential, direct, and severance. Market value, fee simple interest, highest and best use, and other pertinent terms are defined in the following report. Subject to the above analysis, general assumptions and limiting conditions, and certification of value set forth herein, it is our professional opinion that the value of the subject taking is: Value of the Taking: $ 11, 200 Damage to the Remainder: $ 0 Exposure Time: The exposure time linked to the final value opinion is a range to nine (9) to twelve (12) months based on market sales of similar properties and current market activity.

Mearns, City Manager SUBJECT: Request For City Council Retreat 1. Backaround 1. 1. In past years the City contracted with a provider to conduct Strategy Workshops Workshops) to define those projects that the City would undertake in the upcoming fiscal year(s). The last session was held in March 2008. That session was comprised of the Council, City staff and a " Super Focus Group ". 1. 2. A review of the subjects discussed in the last Workshop denotes they consisted of services, governance, technology, revenues, structure, and human resources. The items identified in the Workshop documentation clearly indicates that each was more closely related to budget policy than the general overall direction of the City. 1. 3. Most of the objectives identified in the Workshop document are document are rather broad in nature and clearly matters under the purview of the city manager which should be part of the manager' s operational plan. That plan should be developed with the input of the managerial staff and be part of the budget policy workshop that is presented to the City Council as part of the budget process,. 2. Discussion 2. 1 This is not to say that a strategy session or workshop with the City Council. is not necessary. Quite the opposite, it is not only necessary, it is essential to the city. Goals need to be set and strategies developed to attain goals. However, setting more goals than may be reasonably achieved; or goals that are not realistic; or goals that may take several years to attain will be counter -productive because more often than not, the goals will grow burdensome, stale, will be forgotten and never achieved. I believe that the City Council needs to develop several narrowly defined and attainable goals for this upcoming year that are have a measurable outcome; and discuss strategies to attain these goals. 2. 2 Two objectives I believe need discussion and direction are: 2.2. 1. An annexation campaign designed to bring additional lands into the city to increase revenues and even the city' s boundaries. This will require a broad look at a number of adjustments to the city' s operating policies and procedures; 2.2.2 A bond issue to raise funds to replace elements of the city' s aging infrastructure. The current, and future, budget( s) will not provide sufficient revenues to continue the current " pay as you go" capital g1_  replacement and renewal policy, resulting in the failure of city facilities and programs. 3. Recommendation 3. 1 I request: that the City Council schedule a retreat to be held Saturday, January 9, 2010 at the Fort Walton Beach Golf Club from 8: 30 am until 12: 00 pm. The agenda will consist of the two above referenced items and one to two others approved by the City Council. While the meeting will be open to the public, I believe that it would be in the best interest of the retreat' s success if conversation is confined to that between the City Council and Charter Officers. Of course, that is Council' s choice. 92_  CITY COUNCIL MEETING December 8, 2009 City Attorney Reports No Backup) Agenda Item Number: 11  CITY COUNCIL MEETING December 8, 2009 Mayor /Council Comments No Backup) Agenda Item Number: 12
