NOV BOOK 10 PAGE 33 Director Davis informed the Board that on Item #19 and 19B (Luther) there is about an 1/2 acre parcel along 53rd Street which was mistakenly left out of the memo. The value of that parcel is about $18,000, and they are requesting that it be added to the memo and the recommendation. Chairman Wheeler inquired about valuing the 1/2 acre at $18,000, and Director Davis explained that it is located on 53rd Street right across from the property purchased by the Shopco group for the mall, and it translates to $36,000 an acre which is not out of line with the other appraisals. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock to approve staff recommendation including the added 1/2 acre as described and valued at $18,000. Commissioner Bird noted that at the time we came up with the alignment, he believed we worked with the Grand Harbor group and they did their development around it. He did not know how accurate the drawing is, but if we could have pushed that align- ment a bit to the east, it looks as if we could have done it all within the Grand Harbor development and thereby eliminated having to buy R/W from some of these parcels. He wished to know if there is any possibility of shifting that R/W to the east. Commissioner Scurlock advised that we established a value for the portion that goes through Grand Harbor and gave them that value as a credit towards traffic impact fees, and Director Davis further advised that we had a series of alignments evaluated, and one of the objectives was to locate the roadway westerly to avoid any environmentally sensitive lands. He also pointed out that if you look at the map, the Indian River converges and the land mass between U.S.I and the river decreases as you go north and the R/W width for the Boulevard is 200'. Asst. County Attorney Collins passed out copies of the standard purchase agreement that Attorney Cooksey has worked with 62
