This also included associated drainage systems and applicable right of way permits previously issued by the County. The project was completed on November 9, 2019 and the closing of the transfer is intended to take place within thirty days after the one year anniversary of the project's completion.
The County Deed will transfer that portion of Stewart Road between Aurora Road to Lake Washington Road, together with associated drainage system. The Resolution is pursuant to Section 125.38, Florida Statute authorizing the conveyance of County property. The original executed County Deed will be delivered to the City for the City Attorney's Office to complete the acceptance of the transfer by the City and to cause the recording of the County Deed in the public records.
