Chapter:

STATE LAND ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (Formerly 16Q-3)

Overview

RULE:

18-1	STATE LAND ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (Formerly 16Q-3)
18-1.002	Definitions
18-1.003	General Requirements
18-1.005	Appraisal Map and Survey
18-1.006	Appraisal Procedures, Report Requirements and Determining Maximum Amounts
18-1.007	Appraiser Eligibility and Selection
18-1.008	Negotiations

PURPOSE:

The Division of State Lands operates its land acquisition and appraisal processes through statute, rule, and internal department guidelines, through delegations from and approvals by the Board of Trustees. Recent changes in statutes, and Board of Trustees' policies and guidelines, which were adopted at lawfully advertised public meetings, have not been adopted by rule. Rule amendments are needed to clarify and implement statutes and policies adopted by the Board for land acquisition and appraisal procedures. These rule amendments will implement recommendations of the Auditor General's Office in a June 2005 operational audit.

SUBJECT:

The rule amendments will do the following: clarify appraisal-related terms by adding or amending definitions; clarify the use of federal procedures, including when it is acceptable or required; add references to chapter 259, Florida Statutes; incorporate by reference the "Supplemental Appraisal Standards for Board of Trustees Land," and reduce redundancy and inconsistency between it and the current rule; update the rule to conform, to the extent practicable, to technical changes of the Appraisal Foundation, as published annually in the "Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice"; clarify the meaning of "approved appraiser organization"; and update the appraiser selection procedures to reflect current practice for land acquisitions.
