SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION <br />The purpose of the appraisal study is to express an estimate of total just compensation applicable to the <br />proposed partial acquisition of the subject parent property. Just compensation is based on a <br />quantitative measure of market value. Market value is defined in The California Code of Civil <br />Procedure, §1263.320, as: <br />%A) The fair market value of the property taken is the highest price on the date of valuation <br />that would be agreed to by a seller, being willing to sell but under no particular or urgent <br />necessity for so doing, nor obliged to sell, and a buyer, being ready, willing, and able to buy <br />but sander no particular necessity for so doing, each dealing with the other with full <br />knowledge of all the uses and purposes for which the property is reasonably adaptable and <br />available. <br />(B) The fair market value of pr'oper'ty taken for which there is no relevant market is its value <br />on the date of valuation as determined by any method of valuation that is just and equitable. " <br />Additionally, Section 1263.330 provides that the fair market value shall not include an increase or <br />decrease in value attributable to the project for which the property is to be acquired. Accordingly, the <br />subject property has been appraised absent any influence of the proposed freeway interchange <br />improvement project. <br />There are three conventional methods (approaches) which can be utilized to estimate value. They are <br />the Sales Comparison Approach, Cost -Summation Approach, and Income Capitalization Approach, <br />The Sales Comparison Approach has been employed herein to estimate the value of the subject <br />underlying land parcel which will be utilized in the valuation of the proposed acquisition, The Sales <br />Comparison Approach has been employed herein to estimate the value of the subject underlying land <br />parcel which will be utilized in the valuation of the proposed acquisition, The Income Capitalization <br />Approach have been applied to the relevant portion of the larger parent property for the purpose of <br />facilitating estimation of severance damages relating to the loss of two automobile parking spaces. <br />Certain elements of the Cost -Summation Approach have been employed herein for the purpose of <br />estimating costs associated with reconstructing the outdoor patio seating area. <br />Value of Parent Property Before Acquisition: <br />Sales Comparison Approach, <br />The Sales Comparison Approach takes into account properties which have sold in the open market. This <br />approach, whether applied to vacant or improved property, is based on the Principle of Substitution which <br />states, "The maximum value of a property tends to be set by the cost of acquiring an equally desirable <br />substitute property, assuming no costly delay is encountered in making the substitution. " Thus, Ute Sales <br />Comparison Approach attempts to equate the subject property with sale properties by analyzing and <br />weighing the various elements of comparability. <br />75N-18 <br />
