Most of the project will be reconstructed with the existing right of way limits; however, geometric improvementsare planned at the intersection of CH 101 and CH 17, which require acquisitions from four parcels. TheCounty’s consultant, Bolton & Menk, is responsible for the right of way acquisitions as a part of their designcontract. Bolton & Menk hired Patchin Messner & Dodd (“PMD”), which is an independent fee appraisal firm,to complete the appraisals of the partial acquisitions on parcels needed to construct the project in compliancewith state laws. The appraisals are used to determine the fair market value of the right of way acquisition oneach property. PMD has completed and delivered appraisal reports for each property with partial acquisitionsresulting in recommended estimate of just compensation for four (4) parcels in a sum of $20,050.This project is in the approved Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2011 – 2020.
