BACKGROUND INFORMATION

 

Background:  On April 14, 2022, the Baldwin County Highway Department accepted a right-of-way donation on Canyon Drive from Fairhope Single Tax Corporation.

 

By the Chairman executing the IRS Form 8283, the County is not indicating that it agrees with the valuation of the property, but rather the County is acknowledging the fact that the County did receive the property.

 

The only part of the form that will be signed by the Chairman is Part IV, Donee Acknowledgement, in which:

 

1) The date of receipt of the donation is acknowledged; and

 

2) The County affirms that it will file an IRS information return should it dispose of the property within three (3) years after the date of receipt; and

 

3) The County states whether it intends to use the property for an unrelated use.
