Innovative designs are now available due to the scienctific advancements they now have, and lets them meet these problems head on and solve them; so they didn't want to be bound to past experiences. He thought their marina was very functional and was needed in Indian River County. Mrs. Bowman asked that Mr. Clark, owner of Florida Land, what his plans were for this project, further down the road; did he plan to develop this and get out? Who would own this marina or yacht club 20-25 years from now? Mr. Clark approached the Board to answer Mrs. Bowman's questions. He stated it was their hope to sell the land and he believed the residents of River Bend, who would be Yacht Club Members, would own the yacht basin and the facilities in a property owner's association type thing. The maintenance on the bridge was touched on by Mr. Clark. He said they proposed a deed restriciton on the bridge itself and should the owner not maintain it; the County would have the right to come in •a lien the marina for the purpose of the cost of repair or maintenance. Mrs. Bowman mentioned'a similar situation on the north end of the County and the property owners got tired of it after about 20 years and claimed they couldn't take it over,.the developer, which happened to.be General Development said they couldn't take it over until it got is such bad shape the city had to take it over. She could see this occurring again on a greater scale and felt some type of per- formance bond would b"e required. Mr. Clark used the marina in New Smyrna Beach, as in example of a properly designed marina, and stated the site they had selected in Indian River County was an even better site with an absolute minimum amount of impact to the environment. He stated after completion of the entire excavation of their project and construction of all the piers and facilities connected with their marina, the construction of the access would be done and assured the Board there would be less problems with the building of this marina than the one in New Smyrna Beach, which he offered to show the Board at their convenience. Mr. Challacombe brought up the depth of the 42" culvert and said it should be low enough to take flushing at low tide and this was not indicated on the site plan. He stressed low tide, at any time of the year. The filling of fuel tanks on Jungle Trail also was a concern with the width of Jungle Trail not being wide enough for two vehicles.
