Kea ng, aICP SUBJECT: FINAL PLAT APPROVAL FOR Planning & De elopment Director ORCHID ISLE ESTATES SUBDIVISION FROM: Stan Boling 1).41 REFERENCES: orchid isle Chief, Current Development STAN4 It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of March 10, 1987. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: Orchid Isle Estates is a 68 lot subdivision located on Pine Island (Little Orchid Island) , immediately south of the existing Orchid Island Subdivision. At their regular meeting of December 13, 1984 the Planning and Zoning Commission granted conditional preliminary plat approval for the project. On May 21, 1986 the Board of County Commissioners granted an 18 month extension of the condi- tional preliminary plat approval. Mr. Luciano Cortese, Vice President of Seacrest Estates, Inc., owner/ developer, is now requesting final plat approval and has submitted: 1. a final plat in conformance with the approved preliminary plat; and 2. a check made out to the Board of County Commissioners in the amount of $52,500.00, as a dedication to the park development fund, to satisfy the condition of preliminary plat approval. ANALYSIS: The project, developed on approximately 75 acres of uplands and fill areas of Pine Island, also includes approximately 275 acres of impounded wetlands that surround the platted subdivision area. These wetlands have been restored and preserved, and will be maintained under agreements with the D.E.R. and the Indian River County Mosquito Control District. A conservation easement, under an agreement with the D.E.R., has been placed over the 275 acre wetland area to preclude any future development. The subdivision and plat concerns only the 75 acres of fill and uplands area. The Public Works department has inspected the project and has verified that all required subdivision improvements, which are to be owned and maintained by a private property owners' association, have been constructed and are acceptable. The Environmental Health Department, although., concerned about the quality of drinking water, does not object to final plat approval or to the use of individual wells (standards for individual wells can be satisfied) and septic tanks on each ,lot. The Mosquito Control District has verified that all of its concerns have been addressed and that it has no objection to final plat approval. 14
