Summary Explanation and Background:
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 Brevard County Utilities Department requests the vacating of a 5.5-foot of a 10.00 ft. wide public utility easement on Tract LS-1 to protect an existing manhole from future utility conflicts. Ultimately, this parcel will be transferred to the Brevard County Utility Department, but with only a 4.5-foot utility easement. The property is located in Merritt Island East of N. Courtenay Pkwy. and North of Smith Road.
On December 30, 2024, the legal notice was advertised in Florida Today informing the public of the date a public hearing would be held to consider the vacating. All pertinent county agencies and public utility companies have been notified. At this time, no objections have been received.
