BASIS OF VALUATION
The market value for the property to be acquired by the City is based upon an appraisal prepared in
accordance with accepted appraisal principles and procedures.
Code of Civil Procedure Section 163.320 defines Fair Market Value as follows:
a) The fair market value of the property taken is the highest price on the date of valuation
that would be agreed to between a seller, being willing to sell but under no particular or
urgent necessity for so doing, nor obliged to sell, and a buyer, being ready, willing, and
able to buy but under no particular necessity for so doing, each dealing with the other
with full knowledge of all the uses and purposes for which the property is reasonably
adaptable and available.
b) The fair market value of property taken for which there is no relevant, comparable market
is its value on the date of valuation as determined by any method of appraisal that is just
and equitable.
Recent sales of comparable properties and income data are utilized as appropriate. Full
consideration is given to zoning, development potential and the income the property is capable of
producing.
