I. SCOPE OF WORK
The purpose of this solicitation is to establish a contract for Right of Way Acquisition Legal Services for Douglas County.
The services to be provided under the contract shall include Title Searches, Closings, Title Certifications, and
Condemnation Services. The services listed for the contract/project may or may not be used during the duration of the
project.
The Consultant shall perform the following services with the Douglas County Land Acquisition Coordinator overseeing
all aspects of the Right of Way phase.
Title Search/Preliminary Title/Owner Verification: A title search involves a comprehensive, often 50-year review of
public records in the Superior Court clerk's office to identify legal owners, liens, and encumbrances. A Preliminary Title
Report (PTR) is required for Douglas County projects to identify owners.
Closing/Final Title Certificate: Georgia law dictates that a licensed attorney must oversee all real estate closings,
ensuring expertise in land transfer and title work. The closing will finalize the transfer of property needed for the
transportation project. A Final Title Certificate and a completed closing statement must accompany each deed.
Condemnation: Douglas County prefers buying property by deed, but as a last resort, may file a condemnation lawsuit
in county superior court if negotiations fail, using a Declaration of Taking to gain immediate ownership. Using legal
descriptions, plans, plats, appraisals, etc. supplied by the Douglas County Land Acquisition Coordinator, the Attorney
shall prepare the Petition and proceed with corresponding condemnation tasks (declaration of taking, deposit estimated
compensation, oversee serving the petition to the property owner, file the petition with the County superior court, list the
petition in the County legal organ, receive and review appeal(s), etc.)
Final Right-of-way Certification: The final right-of-way (ROW) certification confirms all property rights, easements, and
right-of-entries are acquired, and relocations are complete, ensuring compliance with federal/state laws and that all legal
titles are secured, and allowing construction to begin.
A. Douglas County Responsibilities
1. Provide a Land Acquisition Manager to act as liaison and advisor.
2. Approve FMV options for processing.
3. Make available all pertinent forms that are required under this contract and any necessary revisions to the forms

8. Coordinate a Appraiser, who will provide valuation review services on the project, including providing the Acquisition
Agent with an approved 532 Release, or "Estimate of Appraisal Calculation" form or "Detailed Cost Estimate" form.
9. The Douglas County Land Acquisition Coordinator shall furnish copies of any property legal descriptions, plans,
plats, appraisals, contamination reports, and/or any hazardous waste reports appropriate for each parcel.
