Engineering Department when they have been requesting <br />right-of-way. <br />Director Davis advised that our Code addresses the condition <br />of the land in gross acreage prior to right-of-way dedication in <br />computing the allowable number of units. <br />Attorney Vitunac asked Director Davis if it is true that if <br />someone demands to be paid for his right-of-way, it doesn't count <br />for it, and Director Davis believed that if the County purchases <br />the right-of-way, the gross acreage after the purchase would be <br />used. <br />Attorney Vitunac felt we really will have to look at that <br />again, and Chairman Bird agreed that Attorney Vitunac and <br />Director Davis need to spend some time on the matter. <br />Mr. Wodtke also questioned the stormwater runoff and the <br />drainage, and Director Davis explained that the swales will hold <br />the runoff from the road, but drainage from the land has to be <br />designed according to the criteria approved by the SJRWMD and the <br />Indian River Farms Water Control District. <br />Mr. Wodtke suggested that to save on maintenance, the County <br />put down a sheet of asphalt on existing dirt roads rather than <br />grading them, especially in some of the more rural areas such as <br />Fellsmere. With regard to speed, he would rather see 45-50 mph <br />on an asphalt road than see a schoolbus traveling those dirt <br />roads after a heavy rain. He just wondered if we could do that <br />and call it maintenance rather than construction. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion <br />was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />Chairman Bird anticipated that today's discussion will <br />generate some future workshops on policy for dirt roads. <br />SPECIAL _ASSESSMENT _PROJECTS __a_ CHERRY_ LANE,_ 1STSTREET SW, AND <br />WALKER AVENUE <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/3/90:^ <br />BOOK;.df'A�E L0l <br />JAN 0 8 1991 43 <br />
