We refer to a section of the <br />staff action letter dated July 10, 1989 which sums up the <br />agreement to alignment as follows: <br />#2 that the applicant dedicate "absolute fee simple" 25' <br />(from centerline) of road rights-of-way, and that the <br />applicant dedicate conservation tracts and <br />grant the remaining proposed buffer easement to the <br />county for vegetation preservation uses along the <br />prc.6 er_t's entire Jungle Trail frontage and that the <br />language establishing said area ensures that the Jungle <br />Trail Management Plan "protected areas" provisions are <br />met or exceeded where applicable. <br />The Jungle•Trail Comunittee of the Indian River County <br />Historical Society regrets to report that the protected area <br />provisions have not been met. In fact, recent inspections by <br />county commissioners, county staff, and committee members <br />indicated flagrant abuses have occurred within this protected <br />area. <br />44 <br />
