-JUN 12 WO Bm 8 FA.,E MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, to approve Alternative #1, adopting Resolutions 90-79 and 90-80 declaring acquisition of the R/W and mitigation area a public necessity, and to approve the other 4 conditions set out under Alternative No. 1 in the above memo dated June 6, 1990, as recommended by staff. Public -Works Director Davis wished to enter the following into the record. He noted that on March 20, 1990, staff did present a fairly lengthy history of the Indian River Boulevard project and went into much of the history that has brought us to this point in recommending to the Board some R/W acquisitions. Particul.arly, staff recommended approval of an environmental mitigation plan that the Board did approve on March the 20th. The Board did unanimously approve the final mitigation plan prepared by the staff and Boyle Engineering Corporation as he recommended. His recommendation at that time was that the County take by purchasing or eminent domain action a certain area for mitigation known as a portion of Impoundment #22, and that was made on behalf of the people of Indian River County and was made independent from any requirements of the various permitting agencies. Director Davis recommended that the County resolve to take specific properties for mitigation for the reasons discussed at that March 20, 1990, meeting and also because it is in the best interests of the people of the county. The County's determina- tion that the taking is in the best interests of the people of the county should be properly based upon the County's under- standing of the various studies and discussion concerning the creation and placement of the mitigation site. He noted that this morning before the Board are some parcels - Director Davis then referred to the aerial displayed before the Board and informed the Board that Parcel #108 is owned by Paul & Camille 46
