BACKGROUND: Snohomish County owns or has a flood easement on approximately 360 acres of land within an area historically known as Drainage District 6, more recently referred to as the DD6/Chinook Marsh Restoration area (“Restoration Area”), located south of Ebey Slough in unincorporated Snohomish County. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Surface Water Management Division is the custodial department and manages the Restoration Area for the purpose of restoration work, providing more open space, and reducing flood risk. Snohomish County Council passed amended Ordinance No. 21-094, related to the 2021 budget, making a supplemental appropriation, on November 3, 2021. A portion of the appropriation was allocated to Surface Water Management Fund 415. Certain property has been identified for acquisition south of Ebey Slough and adjacent to the Restoration Area that is important to the design and development of the project and the purchase would be funded through this appropriation. Sharla Ann Spoelstra owns approximately 56 acres of land identified by tax parcel number 28050300200100 and this property meets this need. The Seller is willing to sell the property to the County for the amount of Six Hundred Fifteen Thousand Six Hundred Seventy Dollars and no/100 ($615,670.00). The sale of the property from the Seller is strictly voluntary, and the Seller is willing to sell the Property to the County in accordance to the terms and conditions of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Seller rents the Property to a tenant who may qualify for personal property relocation benefits which will be paid from the same funding appropriation. Transfer of the Property to the County will be by Statutory Warranty Deed. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Surface Water Management Division and Property Management recommend the purchase of the Property.
