BACKGROUND:
Staff requests approval to release a perpetual ingress and egress easement that was granted to the City of Ocala in 1988 by the Perry family. The current owner (Sandy Clay, LLC.) desires to develop it for single family residential dwellings. The easement is provided by the last two paragraphs of “Exhibit A” of the (attached) Warranty Deed recorded in OR Book 1550, Page 1754. The easement currently encumbers Marion County Parcel #37896-000-00, which Sandy Clay, LLC owns. The City of Ocala has no current or future easement use due to the accessibility to City-owned property using SE 92nd Loop. The City parcel shown on the attached Marion County Property Appraiser’s map is near Belleview and is used by the City as a reclaim spray-field.
