Real Estate in Charlotte County, FL - Scrub Jay, cont’d

On Tuesday, 3/13/2007, the Charlotte County Commission voted to work with the USFWS to streamline permitting of construction on lots found to be free of scrub jays in suspect areas.

Hopefully, this will expedite matters once the proper study for an owner’s lot has been completed. This decision will not automatically release scrub jay suspect lots, it will only make the process quicker. The owner of a suspect lot will still be required to conduct an environmental study.

This is good news for owners of lots and homes in Deep Creek, FL where the presence of scrub jays has slowed permitting. Large portions of Englewood have also been affected. Lots in Englewood East, Florida have lost value even more than average due to the presence of scrub jays. A large area west of the Myakka River in Gulf Cove, FL has been impacted by the presence of the birds as well as sections along SR 776.

Luckily for owners of homes in Rotonda, Florida, the birds seem to have avoided the area, however biologists warn that the birds do move around. One should always check the official list prior to the purchase of a building lot. Call a Suncoasteam broker if you need assistance.

There will be more on this subject in the future. Please check this site regularly for more information.

Real Estate Sales in Charlotte County, FL - Scrub Jay Issue

According to an article in the Sun-Herald newspaper, 3/13/2007, there could soon be changes to the procedure for scrub jay lot building permits. The U. S. Fish & Wildlife Service is considering allowing Charlotte County to release properties that show no scrub jays inhabiting them. If the result of an environmental impact study is negative for these threatened birds, the plan is to have county personnel issue clearance to build.

This is good news for owners of impacted land. It could save years of waiting for federal clearance. Owners of lots in Deep Creek, where property value is quite high could find it much more easy and inexpensive to acquire building permits. It will also affect existing homes in Deep Creek, FL where owners plan alteration or expansion.

Other areas in Charlotte County where scrub jay habitat has been found will also benefit if this procedure is adopted. Lots for sale in Gulf Cove, FL should see a rebound in value as well as lots and land in Englewood, FL.

Scrub jays are known to move about, so if you are considering a purchase of a lot or land in Charlotte County, Florida, please consult with your Suncoasteam brokers for an analysis of the property.

There should be more news on this subject in the near future. Check this site frequently or call for more information.
