Description

The Agreement for Donation is a legal document that facilitates the donation of land for a tax write-off in Georgia, particularly aimed at creating an 18-hole golf course. The form outlines the obligations of both the landowners and the accepting city, highlighting key terms such as the description of the gift, conditions precedent to donation, and allowed use of the land. Owners must ensure that their conditions are met, including design approval and use as a golf course, while the city commits to timely construction of the proposed facilities. The agreement also includes provisions for underground utilities, a right of first refusal for the owners, and the possibility of the property reverting back to the owners if it ceases to be used as intended. Attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants can utilize this form to guide clients through the donation process, ensuring compliance with local regulations, tax implications, and contractual obligations. The document is also suitable for partners and associates involved in real estate or municipal law, providing clarity on the responsibilities and benefits associated with land donations.
