U.S.1 because they never would be able to get out that side entrance and that would be their only exit from Vista Gardens; for a deceleration lane for themselves; and for some plantings along the perimeter of their property as well as some fencing. Director Davis stated that every one of the items just mentioned have been incorporated into the design of the Boulevard. He thought we had communicated that, but stated he will be glad to write a formal letter stating that all those conditions are agreeable and that we are anxious to stub in a connection to their access road. He further reported that we have included a fence along the property line; we were to provide the fence and were under the impression they would provide some plantings. The Board directed that this be put into writing. Commissioner Bird agreed it would be best to try to tie into the Boulevard if possible, and emphasized that we certainly do not want to destroy Vista Gardens' beautiful entrance. Ellis Duncan, Vista Royale resident, informed the Board that he was authorized by the Vista Royale Property Owners Association to indicate their support of the Vista Gardens residents com- plaints. Mr. Duncan believed that many years ago when Indian River Boulevard was first proposed, it was considered a by-pass around the City, but with the changing times, he now believed the main use of the Boulevard would be to get the traffic from the western portion of the City to the beach area. He emphasized that 8th St. as extended -now goes west to 27th Avenue and 43rd Avenue, and he, therefore, felt that bringing the Boulevard in at 8th St. would be preferable to trying to by-pass and go to 4th Street. Mr. Duncan recommended the Board request a further study on the use of 8th St. Commissioner Scurlock informed Mr. Duncan that there is a plan for 4th Street, 8th Street, and 12th Street, all to connect to the Boulevard, 61 MAR 2 0 1985 � �Q� ��_'
