The subject waterfront property consists of approximately 16.5 <br /> acres located on south Jungle Trail. The property was acquired for conservation and historic preservation <br /> purposes with a 45%cost-share grant from the Florida Communities Trust(FCT). <br /> Until March 2011, Mr. Jones occupied the property under a life-estate arrangement in the form of a <br /> caretaker's agreement with the County. In March 2011, Mr. Jones passed away. For on-site security and <br /> maintenance reasons, the Board, on January 17, 2012, approved a license agreement with Sgt. Brad Fojtik <br /> of the Agricultural/Marine Unit, Special Operations Section of the Sheriff's Office, to occupy the main <br /> residence at Jones's Pier. <br /> The license agreement (Attachment 2 to this report) was structured with a one year term, subject to <br /> renewal for additional one year terms upon the mutual agreement of the County and Sgt. Fojtik. In that <br /> one year has passed since the license agreement was originally executed, this matter is herein presented <br /> for the Board to consider approving an amendment to the license agreement that would renew the <br /> agreement and extend it for an additional one year term. <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> Currently, the structures on the Jones's Pier property include the main (principal) house; a detached <br /> garage; a guest cottage; a single-family dock; and a multi-slip dock facility. The license agreement is for <br /> Sgt. Fojtik(and his immediate family)to occupy the principal residence, detached garage and surrounding <br /> 1 <br /> 23 <br />
