Background:
In September of 2020 Clay Electric Cooperative, Inc. was contacted by Mr. Andrew Nefzger and asked to provide new utility services to his property located at 13900 NE State Road 26, tax parcel number 17652-000-000. At this time there are no utility services for the property.
The property is landlocked and surrounded on all sides by tax parcel numbers 17650-000-000 and 17645-002-000 owned by Alachua County. Mr. Nefzger has access to his property via an ingress-egress easement across tax parcel number 07650-000-000.
In order to provide the requested utility services Clay Electric Cooperative, Inc. requires a utility easement across a portion of tax parcel numbers 17645-002-000 and 17650-000-000.
Florida Statute 125.38 authorizes Alachua County to convey an interest in real property to a corporation or other organization not for profit which may be organized for the purposes of promoting community interest or welfare.
Per Florida Statute 125.38 Clay Electric Cooperative has made application requesting the utility easement.
