Kea ing ICP SUBJECT: OF RIGHT -QF -WAY BY COASTAL <br />Planning & Devel6ptnent Director TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION <br />THROUGH: Stan Boling <br />Chief, Current Development�FROM: David C. Nearing REFERENCES: abandonment <br />Staff Planner 4�� DAVEII <br />It is requested that the data presented herein be given formal <br />consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their <br />regular meeting of February 24, 1987. <br />DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION <br />Coastal Technology Corporation, acting as agent on behalf of Mr. & <br />Mrs. Henry Goosen, has submitted a petition for- abandonment of a <br />portion of Azalea Lane within the Oceanaire Heights Subdivision <br />north of C.R. 510 on the north half of the Barrier Island. The <br />Goosens own three lots located to the north of the right-of-way in <br />question. It is their intention to develop these lots for <br />duplexes. <br />The petitioners believe that abandonment of this section of <br />right-of-way will permit better utilization of the three lots <br />currently intended for development. <br />Per guildelines established by the ..Board of County Commissioners, <br />the petition was reviewed by all County divisions and utility <br />providers having _jurisdiction within the right-of-way. All <br />reviewing agencies have recommended approval of the abandonment. <br />However, the County Road and Bridge Department has requested that <br />a public utility and drainage easement be retained through the <br />center and along the east side of the right-of-way. The peti- <br />tioner has agreed to this request. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />This 70 foot wide unimproved portion of right-of-way is not a part <br />of the roadway -system as noted -on the County Thoroughfare Plan <br />roadway system and is not needed as part of the thoroughfare <br />system. Also, this portion of Azalea Lane dead -ends at the west <br />-property line (rear yard ) of two lots in the Summerplace <br />Subdivision Unit 3. Both of these lots have frontage on another <br />street. Thus the Azalea Lane right-of-way shall never be extended <br />or improved, and is of no further value to the County. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff recommends that the County abandon its rights to the 70 foot <br />wide portion of right-of-way with -the exception of the requested <br />drainage and utilities easement, as noted in the attached resolu- <br />tion, and that the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners <br />be authorized to execute the attached resolution [Attachment #3]. <br />23 FE 2 1987,gooK ra��g, <br />
