for construction and maintenance of a segment of the trail through the St. Sebastian River <br />Preserve State Park. That segment begins where the existing hiking trail ends (at a point <br />approximately 1,000 feet west of the entrance to North County Park) and continues to the east <br />boundary of the Fellsmere 392 Subdivision (a distance of approximately 4,000 feet). To finalize <br />the easement request, the Board must approve the attached Easement Agreement with the state. <br />To complete the process of trail construction, the County must agree to maintain the section of the <br />trail constructed by FDOT in the St. Sebastian River Preserve easement. While those <br />maintenance obligations are not affected by this agreement, dedication of the easement to the <br />County is needed to enable FDOT to put the improvements in place through the Preserve. <br />FUNDING <br />There is no financial impact to the County of the proposed action. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners adopt the attached Easement <br />Agreement and authorize staff to transmit the executed agreement to the State of Florida. <br />ATTACHMENT <br />1.
