Summary Explanation and Background:
The subject property is located in Section 36, Township 24 South, Range 35 East, east of Interstate 95, north of Robeson Road, south of Parrish Road, Cocoa.
The Utility Services Department’s West Cocoa wastewater collection and transmission system, including lift stations, force mains, and gravity mains, are aging infrastructures that require rehabilitation and/or replacement. Several of the existing lift stations were originally privately-owned, but are now owned and maintained by the Brevard County Utility Services Department. Many of these lift stations are not in compliance with current Brevard County wastewater design standards since they were initially constructed and maintained as private facilities. There are several easements and proposed property acquisitions that are required to optimize the performance of the overall improvements to the West Cocoa wastewater collection system. The Osborne parcel has been identified as one of the property acquisition sites.
This acquisition follows the policies and procedures as set forth in Administrative Order 37.
Clerk to the Board Instructions:
Upon execution by the Chair, please contact Public Works Department (321-617-7202) to make delivery arrangements for the original executed Contract for Purchase of Easements Rights.
