r <br />BOOK <br />MAY 11991 <br />MR. GHIOTO NOTED THAT THEY WENT TO A MUCH WIDER DRAIN. <br />THE RESIDENTS WERE CONCERNED THAT THE DRAINS MIGHT -BECOME CLOGGED; <br />THEREFORE, THIS WAS AN OVER -DESIGN TYPE OF THING. <br />JOHN LITTLE, CITY MANAGER, APPROACHED THE BOARD REGARDING <br />A LETTER TO FORMER . COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS FROM THE CITY OF VERO BEACH IN <br />JUNE, 1980. HE ADVISED THAT THEY WOULD BE UNABLE TO COMMENT ON <br />THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN DRAWINGS CONCERNING THIS AREA SINCE THEY HAVE <br />NOT SEEN THE DRAWINGS SO FAR. HE CONTINUED THAT SEVERAL POINTS OF <br />CONCERN WERE NOT MENTIONED IN THE LETTER SUCH AS THE BRIDGE•OVER THE <br />MAIN CANAL; THE RISE UP -TO THAT BRIDGE, WHICH GETS VERY CLOSE TO <br />VISTA HARBOR; AND THAT THE DESIGN WOULD ACCOMMODATE REASONABLE FREE <br />ACCESS TO AND FROM THE CONDOMINIUM PROJECT ON THE EAST SIDE OF INDIAN <br />RIVER BOULEVARD NORTH OF THE LAGOON AREA. HE THEN READ FROM THE <br />LETTER OF JUNE, 1980 TO JACK JENNINGS. MR. LITTLE STATED THE CITY <br />WAS WORKING WITH GREINER ENGINEERING CO. WHEN THIS WAS A DOT PROJECT <br />AND THOUGHT THEY HAD AN AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE DESIGN OF THE BRIDGE <br />OVER THE MAIN CANAL. WHEN IT BECAME A COUNTY -PROJECT AND REYNOLDS, <br />SMITH & HILLS TOOK IT OVER, HE ADDED THE CITY WAS UNABLE TO VERIFY <br />WHETHER THE BRIDGE WAS DESIGNED IN THAT MANNER OR NOT AND WERE UN- <br />WILLING TO PAY ANY ENGINEERING COST TO TELL IF THE BRIDGE WAS SO <br />DESIGN=ED. MR. LITTLE HOPED THAT IT WAS SO DESIGNED AND IF IT WASN'T, <br />THE CITY WOULD PUT A WATER MAIN ON SUPPORT STRUCTURES ACROSS THE <br />CANAL AND NOT TIE ONTO THE BRIDGE. HE STATED THEY WERE ALSO CONCERNED <br />THAT IT NOT BE CONSTRUCTED AS A NO -ACCESS EXPRESS14AY AS THERE ARE <br />SOME PROPERTIES EAST OF THE GOLF COURSE AND WEST OF THE ROAD RIGHT- <br />OF-WAY THAT WOULD BE COMPLETELY INACCESSIBLE. MR. LITTLE EXPLAINED <br />THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HAD AN OFFICIAL RESPONSE TO ANY OF THE POINTS <br />IN THE LETTER, <br />COMMENT. <br />CHAIRMAN LYONS ASKED THE COUNTY ENGINEER IF HE HAD A <br />COUNTY ENGINEER JIM DAVIS ADVISED THAT HE MET WITH THE <br />STAFF OF REYNOLDS, SMITH & HILLS AND THE PERMITTING PEOPLE AND WENT <br />4 <br />
