BOOK Commissioner Bowman did not see how this benefits the county. Attorney Collins noted that about 3 years ago when Indian River Trails was developing, they were in the county, but they subsequently annexed into the Town of Indian River Shores. In that process, they executed a deed exchange. Attorney Collins then referred to the above map and explained that it shows the baseline of the Jungle Trail Maintenance Map, and as that map now lies, it is the 40' closest to the river. Indian River Trails, on the southern portion that has already been platted, exchanged - deeds to move the maintenance map 10' inland away from the river. Now they are coming in to plat Phase II in Indian River Shores and because they are going to the Shores Planning Commission in the next few weeks, they are asking if we want them to move the plat 10' inland so if the river erodes the shore, we would not be moving the Trail onto their property but there would be 10' more to work with. Commissioner Eggert asked if the solid black line is the new baseline of Jungle Trail, and Attorney Collins explained that the Maintenance Map as recorded now is the 40' that is closest to the river - the 10 + 20 + 10. The baseline is the shot the surveyor takes down the road and measures from point to point. Right now we have 10' to the east of the baseline and 30' to the west. They are saying if you will deed us the 10' closest to the river, we will deed you 10' inland and then you will have 20' on either side of your baseline. Chairman Wheeler asked if that will allow them to put in docks, and Attorney Collins advised that it depends on the permitting requirements of the DER. It may give them a few hundred feet of additional frontage on the river; however, the Trail is not being realigned; it is staying where it is. Commissioner Scurlock wished to know if they are saying take 10' over here and give us 10' there, and they then have ability to use the westerly portion. 54 � � r
