House (circa 1910) is located and the Bridge Tender's Site where the Wabasso Bridge (circa 1927) <br />was historically located. The location of these sites is depicted on the map in Attachment B. <br />If funded through this grant, the County will create wayside exhibits for each site which will <br />provide the visitors with descriptions of the rich history of the Indian River Lagoon and the <br />Historic Jungle Trail. Visitors will be able to complete the tour guided by printed maps and a web <br />app developed by the County which will provide a story connecting each historic property and <br />highlight the unique aspects of the contributions of the pioneers of Indian River County. <br />Partners who have already shown an interest and provided letters of support are Pelican Island <br />Audubon Society, the Environmental Learning Center, the Indian River County Historical Society, <br />Senator Debbie Mayfield, Congressman Bill Posey, the Indian River Land Trust, and the School <br />District of Indian River County. <br />FUNDING: <br />In December 2015, the Board of County Commissioners approved an amendment to the <br />Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvement Element for public access on conservation lands <br />providing $29 million dollars over 5 years to be utilized toward public access improvements.. <br />Priority was given to establishing trails and related trail structures at conservation areas that are <br />nearing final completion with the FCT outlined obligations. This project has been identified as a <br />top priority through this process. Funding sought from the Division of Historical Resources under <br />this grant will provide $27,500. The County proposes to match $9,500 of in-kind services and <br />$18,500 in cash (see table below) through the use of the appropriate funding source. <br />Grant Cash In -Kind Total <br />Architectural <br />Drawings <br />$ 4,000 <br />$ 4,000 <br />$ 0 <br />$ 8,000 <br />Sign Construction <br />$15,000 <br />$10,000 <br />$ 0 <br />$25,000 <br />Sign Design <br />$ 4,500 <br />$10,000 <br />$ 0 <br />$ 9,000 <br />Sign Installation <br />$ 0 <br />$ 0 <br />$ 2,500 <br />$ 2,500 <br />Site Preparation <br />$ 0 <br />$ 0 <br />$ 1,500 <br />$ 1,500 <br />Site Survey <br />$ 0 <br />$ 0 <br />$ 2,500 <br />$ 2,500 <br />Total: <br />$27,500 <br />$18,500 <br />$ 9,500 <br />$55,500 <br />If awarded, the grant agreement will be presented to the Board of County Commissioners for final <br />approval and the DHR funding would be available July 1, 2018.
