Summary Explanation and Background:
The subject property is located in Section 11, Township 27 South, Range 37 East, east of South Patrick Drive, and west of Bella Coola Drive in Indian Harbour Beach.
The Utility Service Department is designing improvements to Lift Station B-20, at 212 Riverside Park Dr., Indian Harbour Beach, to increase its capacity. Lift Station B-20 was originally built in 1986 and has remained mostly unchanged since then.
As part of the design process, a boundary survey of 212 Riverside Park Dr. was completed, and the fence on the east side of the property was found to be located 28 to 30 feet into the Brevard County property from the property line. For the Lift Station B-20 Improvements, the Department needs to fully utilize the entire property, which involves relocating the fence to the property line, except for that portion shown in Exhibit A.
When the Department notified the affected adjacent property owners of their intentions to relocate the fence, a conflict at 212 Bella Coola Drive was identified, where a screened pool enclosure is approximately four inches from the property line. To enable the property owner to have access to the backside of their screen enclosure, the Department evaluated whether the fence could be placed three feet from the property line along the boundary of the 212 Bella Coola Drive parcel without adversely affecting the overall design of the project, and the Department determined that it would be feasible to do so.
The Department is proposing to convey an approximate 3’ x 80’ (239 square foot) portion of the County-owned 5-acre parcel to the adjacent property known as 212 Bella Coola Drive for the cost of $332.00, as determined based on the current Property Appraiser land value.
The User Department approves this request.
This acquisition follows the policies and procedures as set forth in Administrative Order 37, Sec. 2-243 of the Brevard County Code of Ordinances, and Sec. 125.35, of the Florida Statutes.
Clerk to the Board Instructions:
Upon execution by the Chair, the Public Works Department will contact the Clerk’s office to make arrangements to pick up the original executed Resolution, As-Is Contract for Sale and Purchase, and County Deed.
