However, it is evident that this roadway was never built to the County's minima n <br />requirements for elevation. and has been a flooding hazard the entire time. While Resolution 84- <br />62 provides that the Town may decide at any time to not continue to control. maintain and <br />supervise Old Winter Beach Road and the Bridgehead Property, it is the Town's desire to partner <br />with the County to jointly solve this issue. <br />After Vice Mayor Oclisner and I met with each of you individually on December 8`". 2016. 1 was <br />contacted by Amy Adams of Cape Canaveral Scientific. Inc. who is a grant writer for the Indian <br />River Lagoon National Estuary Program, now called the Indian River Lagoon Council. She <br />explained that the cooperative project that t described to each of you was not possible due to <br />restrictions regarding the installation of infrastructure on private property. She then explained that <br />part of her responsibilities include helping smaller municipalities with funding opportunities <br />within the Central Indian River Lagoon district. <br />Mrs. Adams further explained that the Florida legislature implemented a new "House Form" to <br />request appropriations for finding for projects such as this, and that she would be willing to help <br />put together a proposed project to make the necessary improvements to Old Winter Beach Road <br />(OWBR) and the surrounding stone water drainage issues. Since the legislative deadline was the <br />first week of February. 2017 to submit projects for funding approval for 2018, Mrs. Adams began <br />the process immediately. Representative Erin Grail and Senator Debbie Mayfield both have a <br />copy of the House Form and are anxious to take on this project. <br />As you kno%N,. the Town employed David Knight of Knight. McGuire in 2002 to develop a plan to <br />raise (OWBR) and to clean up any related storm water before it reaches the Lagoon. Mr. Knight <br />has agreed to update the plans to include the required. latest. scientifically proven technologies <br />and the cost estimates to complete the project. <br />P50 <br />
