I also added the legal description to Section 4. Since the deed you attach has several other abandoned rail right of ways on it, I figured we better refer to the one we are transferring.

While I maintain a private practice, I am also a Special Deputy Prosecuting Attorney for the purpose of assisting the Grant County Prosecutor's Office with real estate and other matters from time -to -time. Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Rebekah Kaylor asked me to take a look at this transaction. While the County welcomes the proposed gift and does not want to be looking the proverbial gift horse in the mouth, I am seeing an issue. There is a conflict between the Assessor's Parcel No. and the legal description. The parcel number referenced in the deed, APN 1505930017 is, according to Grant County Property Search, an abandoned railroad right of way to the west of Baird Springs Road (please see attached map of APN 150593001), but the actual legal description set forth in the deed as well as in the 1971 Treasurer's Deed attached to the REETA describes property east of Baird Springs Road which is not abandoned railroad right of way and is, according to Grant County Property Search, identified as APN 150589000 and is owned by a third -party, Mansour & Linda Ravassipour. In addition, the formal legal description actually excepts the railroad right-of-way (Please see attached deed with subject language highlighted). To illustrate the issue, I attach my working map. In orange is the abandoned railroad right of way identified as APN: 150593001. In yellow (with the exception of the yellow portion I put an "X" through) is the land described in the legal description set forth in the deed and the Treasurer's Deed appended to the REETA. Ultimately, the November 22, 1971, Treasurer's Deed from which this legal description originates does not describe APN 150593001. Is there another deed for APN 150593001 ? Best, Christopher F.
