riLTF.RNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />On the Florida Department of Education's Hazardous Walking <br />'on <br />d.itions Report form, there are two entries which the County <br />:should consider. First, Column E on the form required the <br />reporting of the date that the County and School Board agree <br />that a "hazardous walking condition "exists. Secondly, the <br />:'ounty must give a projected Actual completion date for con- <br />sti-,ict_ing improvements (sidewalks, etc.) that will correct the <br />To construct sidewalks along a 3 mile portion of Oslo Road, <br />(l; mile East and West of 18th Avenue to connect with the re- <br />cently constructed 18th Avenue sidewalk) and along the 2 mile <br />portion of Lateral A Road extended would require in both cases <br />extensive right-of-way acquisition (cost unknown). The cost <br />of a 5' wide typical sidewalk would amount to approximately <br />$8.00 per lineal foot. The Oslo Road sidewalk would cost approx- <br />imately $126,720 plus right-of-way acquisition. The cost of <br />the -, mile portion of Lateral A Road sidewalk would be approx- <br />imately $21,120 plus right-of-way acquisition. Right-of-way <br />acquisition could take one year or so. <br />Alternative No. 1 <br />Since the County's Thoroughfare Plan shows Oslo Road as an <br />Arterial road, a 120' wide right-of-way will be reserved as <br />development fronts the road. This will resolve the right -of-, <br />way deficiency. Through the site plan process, the construction <br />of sidewalks can be requested as the area developes. The impact <br />of this alternative would be a minimum cost to the County and <br />right-of-way condemnation would be avoided. <br />To resolve the Lateral A Road walking condition, the County <br />staff is pursuing right-of-way acquisition at this time. <br />Alternative No. 2 <br />Proceed to acquire the right-of-way along Oslo Road by donation <br />or condemnation and construct sidewalks. <br />RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING <br />Alternative No. 1 is recommended whereby sidewalks and right- <br />of-way acquisition along Oslo Road shall be requested .at the <br />time that the land is developed, and that the County proceed <br />to acquire right-of-way along Lateral "A" Road north of CR 510. <br />At this time, these areas do not meet the Florida Statutes <br />definition of "hazardous walking condition". <br />NOV 3 1982 35 dog l 51 899 <br />
