Attorney Henderson reported that the developer is against declaring the property as a public road and pointed out that the ` trend in South Beach is towards private roads and security gates. _ If the Board decides to require his client to grant access to Mr. O'Haire, then Mr. O'Haire should be required to help pay the construction costs and perhaps reimburse Mr. Krovocheck client for part of the cost of the land as well as sharing future maintenance and security costs. _ ----� Todd Smith, design engineer for the project, responded to Mr. O'Haire's comment that a density of 1.4 units to 1 acre in an area zoned RS -3 is not 11shoehorning,11 and even though Mr. O'Haire disagrees it certainly will be a windfall if Mr. O'Haire does not have to spend a single dime to access the roadway. He felt that in order to justify upholding Mr. .O'Haire's appeal, the Board must determine that Mr. O'Haire's property needs access through Mr. Krovocheck's property. The argument that traffic maneuver conflicts is a concern has very little validity because even during peak hours, there would only be about one vehicle entering AlA every five minutes. Mr. Smith added that two roads side by side are not the same as a four -lane road. He concluded that Mr. Krovocheck's plan does not aggrieve Mr. O'Haire in any way and consideration should be given to the desires of private ownership, as long as the codes and the public's interests are not contravened. Jack Rrovocheck, 565 South Highway AlA, gave the members of the Board a drawing of his proposed development. He discussed how he proposed a property swap about 2-1/2 years ago and offered Mr. O'Haire 77 feet on the river in exchange for some road right-of- way. He thought the plan was very fair, but Mr. O'Haire informed him he was not interested. Since that time, Mr. O'Haire has opposed every permit application he has made, which Mr. Krovocheck felt was an abuse of the system and a waste of the taxpayers' money. The various agencies, recognizing that the opposition had no merit, granted him the necessary permits. Mr. Krovocheck felt that Mr. O'Haire should be required to give up some right-of-way in exchange for access to the road, which would increase the building envelope on both pieces of property and create a win-win situation for everyone concerned. He directed the Board's attention to four letters wherein he tried to negotiate with. Mr. O'Haire without success. Mr. O'Haire wants access to the road without having to contribute towards the cost of building it, and he wants it built 58 M r
