Summary Explanation and Background:
The subject properties are located in Section 27, Township 24 South, Range 36 East, on the east side of North Tropical Trail south of Lucas Road in Merritt Island.
Public Works Department is planning to improve drainage along a section of North Tropical Trail. The section of improvements will encompass the approximate area of 950 North Tropical Trail to Lucas Road. Upon reviewing the survey provided by parcel owner Ellis, it was determined by the Department that a Right-of-Way, Drainage and Utility Easement along North Tropical Trail would be necessary to implement the drainage improvement.
Ellis subsequently conveyed approximately 1 acre of her parcel to the Hamptons and informed them of the County's plan to improve drainage along this section of North Tropical Trail. In a desire to cooperate with the County, the Hamptons agreed to donate by Warranty Deed the right- of- way along North Tropical Trail to clearly define the right-of-way limits.
The attached Drainage Easements provided by both Ellis and Hampton will formalize the County's ability to access and maintain Bevis Ditch.
The User Department approves this request.
This acquisition follows the policies and procedures as set forth in Administrative Order 37.
