Title Disposition of City Property Explanation The City of Gainesville Housing Division and the Alachua Habitat for Humanity, Inc. (Habitat) have formed a partnership to develop affordable housing for a qualified low-income first-time homebuyer. The city owns a vacant lot, tax parcel #15955-007-000, located at 105 S.E. 13th Lane. Habitat will build a newly constructed home on this property. The home will be a detached single-family dwelling. The disposition of this property would allow Habitat the opportunity to develop the lot into useable housing stock and assist in the City's continuing effort to provide affordable homeownership opportunities for a very low or low-income family in the Gainesville community. Fiscal Note The property was purchased using the Housing Division's FY 1998 Community Development Block Grant allocation, account # 102-790-7947-5590-6020. Recommendation The City Commission: 1) declare 105 S.E. 13th Lane (tax parcel #15955-007-000) surplus property; 2) approve the conveyance of 105 S.E. 13th Lane (tax parcel #15955-007-000) to Alachua Habitat for Humanity, Inc. to be used for the development of a newly constructed affordable housing unit; and 3) authorize the Mayor and Clerk of the Commission to execute a Special Warranty Deed, with an appropriate reverter clause, to effect the conveyance of this property, subject to approval by the City Attorney as to form and legality.
