for the development. There are 30 players' quarters in conjunction with the polo fields. In addition, there is a beach club proposed, which is a special exception use and is coming in as part of the PRD process. Another reason for coming in with a PRD is so that they can have a conceptual plan that covers a large area without having to come in with detailed engineering drawings at this point. A major point of concern is the run-off from the project with regard to animal wastes. There are many considerations in this PRD besides Jungle Trail. Chairman Scurlock felt that the bottom line is that a majority of the community believes, for whatever reasons, that the Trail has historical value. Mr. Boling advised that the developer is requesting that a portion of Jungle Trail be designated as a pedestrian pathway and closed to vehicular traffic. Staff's position is that the County not abandon its interest in the Trail and that the developer dedicate the 40 -ft. right-of-way for the Trail to legally establish the County's interest, and then maybe the Board would like to consider that as a specific proposal at a tater date. Staff feels that it would be worthwhile to consider the proposal for a pedestrian trail. Chairman Scurlock felt the setback for it should be more than 30 -ft., and Mr. Boling advised that we could add a condition under the PRD to make it more than 30 feet. Attorney Vitunac noted that if we are making a deed to the roadway we would get more than what is actually there now, and Mr. Boling concurred that you would get more than the road bed; you would get 40 feet and the road bed could not be more than 18 feet in this section. Chairman Scurlock understood that since the developer wants to preserve the area and work with us, we should go ahead and write in there what is reasonable. He suggested 60 feet. Commissioner Bird believed that we would have 70 feet -- 40 feet for the road and 30 feet of setback. 55 FEB 2 3 1988 BOOK 71 F'a;E 55
