Director Mora said staff was very confident with the estimates and that we would <br />meet our $1.25 million commitment. <br />Chairman Davis questioned when the bridge would be opened, and whether we <br />have the right of way along these routes to complete the job. <br />To the former, Director Mora said design and construction of the bridge should be <br />done within a year and a half; and to the latter, said we do not have the right-of-way to build the <br />four lanes of 66th Avenue that are proposed in our 5 -Year Plan, but we do have enough right-of- <br />way to do just the left -turn lanes, the bridge improvements, and the traffic signal, without <br />obtaining new right-of-ways. He said they could make the improvements that are part of this <br />Agreement without any additional right-of-way. <br />Bob Johnson, Coral Wind Subdivision, referred to the state of the present <br />economy and could not see why the County was paying the $2.5 million. He recommended that <br />the project be returned to the School District to be funded by them. <br />Chairman Davis explained to Mr. Johnson, the rule pertaining to offsite <br />improvements. <br />ON MOTION by Vice Chairman Flescher, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Solari, the Board unanimously approved <br />Alternative No. 1, authorizing the Chairman to sign the <br />Interlocal Agreement with the School Board of Indian <br />River County, for roadway improvements to 57th Street, <br />66th Avenue, and 58th Avenue, as recommended in the <br />memorandum of November 26, 2008. <br />AGREEMENT ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />December 9, 2008 <br />15 <br />
