KINGSBERRY ROADRIGHT-OF-WAYACQUISITION - BUD JENKINS PROPERTY The Board reviewed the following memo dated 6/23/86: (insert) TO: The Honorable Members of the -June 23, 1986 Board of County Ccomissioners. DATE: FILE: THROUGH: Tawny Thomas, Acting County Administrator SUBJECT: Kingsberry Road (53rd Street) Right -of -Way Acquisition Bud Jenkins Property 10 FROM:James W. Davis, P.E. REFERENCES: Public Works Director DESCRZPTION AMID COMMONS The County's Thoroughfare Plan designates Kingsberry Road (53rd Street) as a Primary Collector Road functioning as the major east/west connector between the future north terminus of Indian River Boulevard'and 82nd Avenue (Ranch Road). At this time, sand mining activity is being conducted just west of the FEC Railway along the Kingsberry Road corridor. Approximately 6 months ago, the owner of the property, Bud Jenkins, was informed that the County would need a road right-of-way through the property and was requested to cease mining in this area. Mr. Jenkins did cease his mining activity in the right-of-way area and has agreed to cooperate in selling of the right-of-way, to the County at. the appraised value. -Filling of a portion of the right-of-way is required, and Mr. Jenkins would be willing to fill the area at an agreed upon cost using material on site. Mr. Jenkin's original mining approval was issued in 1977 and the limits of the mining activity are shown on the attached map. Since 1977, Mr. Jenkins has acquired additional land along the North west of his property which abuts the Lateral H Canal owned by the IM CD. In order to accamcdate the proposed right-of-way and to compensate for the fill in the right-of-way, Mr. Jenkins is requesting that his mining operation limits be revised to incorporate the following: 1) Expand his mining limits to the west to a line 100' east of the east right-of-way line of the Lateral "H" canal. This would reduce the 150' wide buffer requirement in the County's code and would required a variance fran the Board of Adjustments. 2) Allow the owner to excavate the mining operation to a deeper depth. The approved plan shown a depth of excavation to -7.5 mean sea level (existing Ground elevation is +13 feet). Mr. Jenkins would like to operate a dredge in the lake to go deeper. 21 Boa 64 P9 -UE 849
