Director Davis noted that these owners are not only requesting fair market value, but they also want access to the Boulevard and that has been granted in the past only to the properties that had no other access or where negotiated R/W has been donated. The properties in question do have access pri- marily to 6th Avenue, and staff does not feel they need access to the Boulevard. It would enhance the value of their property, and we have to pby fair market value anyway. Staff, therefore, recommends we proceed to acquire the R/W; simply indicate that we would not grant access to the Boulevard; and if they do not wish to accept fair market value, we will go to condemnation. I MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman to offer the above de- scribed property owners fair market value, but not offer access to Indian River Boulevard, and if this is unacceptable, we will go to condemnation. Discussion ensued re where we will have access to the Boulevard, and Director Davis advised there will be properties where we have managed access into the design of the roadway - Vista Gardens as they had a critical problem getting out onto U.S.1., and we are providing Mr. Graves with an access to his property -because our right-of-way would negate his access. Commissioner Bird inquired about the pPoperties on the east side of the Boulevard, Tanen, etc., and Director Davis stated that we may have to consolidate some of those accesses, but they will have to have access. Commissioner Bowman did not see why Mr. Graves needs access, and Director Davis explained that we will manage the access and it will be a limited access. Commissioner Bird inquired if it might not be worse from a traffic standpoint to force those people to access onto 6th Avenue, which already has a considerable traffic problem. 43 MAR 11 1986 BOOK 63 F,1c E876
