BOOK 83 f',�GE II.) The North County attachment of 130th Street to Roseland Road should not be encouraged to become a future intersection of business corridor traffic. 130th Street enters Roseland Road just 300 feet west of the existing FEC railway ties: this would be potentially the same poor planning that the County has been trying to escape at the existing Intersection of CR512 and U.S.I. III.) The County should do everthing in its power to encourage the City of Sebastian to connect its Gibson Street (next to City Hall) with Jackson Street east of U.S.I. The County would be thereby promoting the development of the County's historic past, as well as saving itself from countless FUTURE dollars in attempting to deal with a congestive 130th Street / Roseland Road intersection close to two future railroad tracks. Additionally, the County could be most helpful to the City by encouraging the procurement of State and Federal funds for a RAILWAY BRIDGE at CR512. thereby allowing the City to add its "given -up" grade -crossing at CR512 to that of the County's at 87th Street: producing the viability of the new Gibson / Jackson railway grade -crossing from FEC. IV.) Developer Carl Julian (St. Sebastian PUD) has noted by telephone that he sees no objection to a Gibson / Jackson connection, as it would be a "good thing for both his development in Sebastian as well as the new Historic Riverfront Area": also. he has noted that he has no objection to AVOIDING ANY CONNECTION of Gibson Street with 130th Street in Roseland. It is my hope that this general outline will aid the Transportation Planning Committee in assessing the value of: - a RAILWAY BRIDGE, but more specifically: a RAILWAY BRIDGE OVER A SOLE -WIDENED CR512. - an AVOIDANCE of a Gibson / 130th Street connection, but more specifically: the CREATION OF A NEW GIBSON / JACKSON BUSINESS CORRIDOR.
