Florida Statutes, Section 336.09 and Brevard County Article II, Section 86-36, provide a method for the Board of County Commissioners to vacate and abandon unused rights-of-way and easements. The petitioner owns Tax Parcel 251 and is requesting the vacating of a portion of a 7.50 ft. wide public drainage easement per Official Records Book 2613, Page 284, to allow for the property to be constructed as planned per Site Plan # 22SP00038 and the petitioner is granting a new drainage and access easement and sidewalk easement.
