MAY 26 1983 <PAUZ Attorney Brandenburg agreed that we have two or three large parcels very much in the same area with the same characteristics and the determining factor is the dollars. Commissioner Wodtke liked the idea of getting a large parcel in a central location north of Wabasso Beach Park to get some of the congestion away from the intersection of 512 and AlA, and Chairman Bird commented that the State's preference was for larger pieces of property where you can centralize your facilities and provide better security than in scattered areas. Commissioner Scurlock felt we must keep in mind the distance from utility services, and the further north you get, the further away you are from such services. He then asked if the factor of sand accretion had been considered as there are locations where the sand builds up and others where it wears away more quickly. Chairman Bird stated that we were limited by the properties offered to us. Although the beach seems to be building to some degree around South Beach Park, nothing is available in that area; all these pieces, however, seem to have quite a high bluff line, but they do not have a wide beach in front of the dune line. Commissioner.Lyons.commented that they still have to pump the sand -trap at Sebastian Inlet, and he believed these beaches would gain some benefit from that. Mr. Thomas noted that one of the reasons staff liked Golden Sands is the beach depth. Chairman Bird thanked Mr. Deprez for his cooperation and asked if he had anything he wished to add. Mr. Deprez just wished to point out that the total acreage of the oceanside parcel is 19 acres; 17.29 would be just to the bluff line. SCHLITT (ERDO PARCEL) AND BELL ROAD PROPERTY Mr. Challacombe emphasized that the Erdo parcel has 484 ft. oceanfrontage and a depth of 491' from AIA which provides sufficient depth to do a great deal of design work for a park.
