parking available right now. They will have 16 slips for this dock, and adjacent to that or very near that, there are 6 extra slips for one of the buildings already constructed. In addition, there is going to be a mariners' club, which will have 15 slips; so we are talking about 37 parking spaces for 42 slips. There is ample parking. Attorney Barkett emphasized that it is the residents that are asking to do this and Sea Oaks is asking the County to let them open themselveseup for this limited public use. This isn't going to mean that some other subdivision that wants to have a docking facility within its borders will be required to open it up to the public. They would have to come to the County and ask for it, and the County would have to review it on its merits and add any conditions they feel are necessary. Attorney Barkett asked for the Board's support in adopting the proposed ordinance. Commissioner Scurlock asked if they were going to put up that ugly, black chain link fence, but Attorney Barkett felt that Commissioner Scurlock would love it after all the vegetation is planted. Commissioner Bowman was worried about them being able to grow red mangroves nearby with all that turbulence in the Inter- coastal. Commissioner Wheeler asked how many docks will be accessible to the public, and Attorney Barkett advised that they have never computed the actual number. There would be approximately 19 or 20 docks if it wasn't made accessible to the public, and then 48 if half of them are made available to the public, which gives Sea Oaks residents an additional 5 docks. Commissioner Scurlock assumed that if the public docks go unused by the public, Sea Oaks could make full utilization of them, but Attorney Barkett felt they have to be kept available to non-residents of the development, and that if the public doesn't come in and use them, they still must be maintained on an available status. 21 E 1L 1989 PooK i6 rnE 94
