We were unable to reach an agreement at that time so the City Council authorized our office to proceed with condemnation. The representative of Halsell Holdings, LLC has made a counter-offer of $25,000.00. It is likely that the City would incur at least $3,100.00 in additional court costs, expert witness fees and other costs if we file a lawsuit. It probably makes more sense to pay that additional amount to a company that intends to develop the property. Our office recommends accepting; this offer and paying $25,000.00 to Halsell Holdings, LLC. From: Sent: To: Subject: As a follow up to our meeting this morning, If the City will pay $25,000.00 for the easement, Halsell Holdings will sign the easement. Regards John.

Mountain Street Fayetteville, AR 72701 RE: The Halsell Holdings, LLC Property; 1.43± Acres And Residential Improvements Located At 1521 W. Halsell Road, Fayetteville, Arkansas; Washington County Dear Ms. Jones: In compliance with your request and for the purpose of estimating the market value of the above captioned property, we hereby certify that we have examined the subject property and made a survey of the matters pertinent to the estimation of its value. We further certify that we have no interest, present or contemplated, in the property appraised, and that our fee was not contingent upon the value estimate reported. The following real property appraisal report contains data gathered in our investigation, information from our files, and shows the method of appraisal in detail. This report is presented under the Appraisal Report Option. This report addresses: the market value of the Whole Property Land Only prior to the City of Fayetteville acquiring 1,780± SF in permanent easement, for the Graham Waterline Improvement Project, as of July 23, 2018; and, the market value of the Remainder Property Land Only after the City of Fayetteville has acquired the 1,780± SF permanent easement, for the Graham Waterline Improvement Project, as of July 23, 2018. Based on an analysis of relevant data, and contingent on the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions which follow and appear in the Addenda Section of this report, it is our opinion the market value of the fee simple estate of the subject property, as of July 23, 2018, is as follows: WHOLE PROPERTY (LAND ONLY) — $609,900 REMAINDER PROPERTY (LAND ONLY) — $58,8,000 DAMAGE TO MARKET VALUE — $ 21,900 The preceding values reflect terms equivalent to cash to the owners and represent that for real property only. The following Extraordinary Assumptions are utilized in this report: 1. Subject land size is approximately as indicated in this report. 2. The land area located within the permanent easement will be put back to as near original condition as possible, by the City of Fayetteville. If either, or both, of these Extraordinary Assumptions prove to be untrue, one or both of the preceding value estimates could be influenced. The reader is referred to additional Assumptions and Limiting Conditions presented in the Addenda Section of this report. A Hypothetical Condition of this appraisal is that the Graham Waterline Improvement Project is complete and in place as of the effective date of this report in estimating the market value of the Remainder Property Land Only. In reality, the Graham Waterline Project was not complete and in place as of July 23, 2018. If this Hypothetical Condition is not considered, the estimated market value of the Remainder Property Land Only could be influenced. The appraisers are invoking the Jurisdictional Exception Rule in this appraisal. The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) requires, under Standards Rule 1-2 (c) (iv), "When reasonable exposure time is a component of the definition for the value opinion being developed, the appraiser must also develop an opinion of reasonable exposure time linked to that value opinion." However, the Uniform Appraisal Standards For Federal Land Acquisitions, under Section 1.2.4, states "Appraisers should not link opinions of value under these Standards to a specific opinion of exposure time, unlike appraisal assignments for other purposes under USPAP Standards Rule 1-2 (c)." USPAP states the following under Standards Rule 1-4 (f): "When analyzing anticipated public or private improvements, located on or off the site, an appraiser must analyze the effect on value, if any, of such anticipated improvements to the extent they are reflected in market actions." This appraisal is prepared in conformity to the provisions of the "Uniform Act" and its implementing regulation 49 CFR Part 24. The 49 CFR Part 24 regulation requires appraisers to disregard any decrease or increase in the market value of the property that has been caused directly by the project in the "Before Acquisition Value" appraisal. This is considered a Jurisdictional Exception. In addition, General Benefits as a result of the project have not been considered in the valuation of the Remainder Property based on 49 CFR Part 24. Considering USPAP Standards Rule 1-4 (f), this is also considered a Jurisdictional Exception.
