MAINTENANCE MAP OF OSLO ROAD FROM LATERAL "J" CANAL TO OLD DIXIE HIGHWAY The Board reviewed the following memo dated September 10, 1993: TO: James E. Chandler, County Administrator THROUGH: James W. Davis, P.E., 9 Public Works Directo FROM: Terry B. Thompson, P.E.OK Capital Projects Manager SUBJECT: Maintenance Map of Oslo Road from Lateral "J" Canal to Old Dixie Highway DATE: September 10, 1993 FILE: oslo.agn DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The County is in the process of purchasing right-of-way on Oslo Road from Old Dixie to 500 feet west of Old Dixie. The right-of- way is needed for scheduled intersection improvements at Oslo Road and Old Dixie and installation of the Oslo Road force main. The cost of this right-of-way can be substantially reduced by filing a maintenance map of Oslo Road from Old Dixie to the Lateral "J" Canal. The County Surveyor has prepared a maintenance map of Oslo Road that depicts a baseline with measurements to either side of the edge of pavement at 100 foot intervals. The width of the maintained right-of-way varies from 24 feet to 33 feet from edge of pavement to edge of pavement. The filing of a maintenance map duly certified by the Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners reciting on it that the road has vested in the County by virtue of its construction by the County and the fact that it has been maintained or repaired continuously and uninterrupted for four years by the County constitutes prima facie evidence of ownership of the land by the County, and -the road is deemed dedicated to the public to the extent and width that has been actually maintained. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING Staff recommends that the Board authorize the Chairman, by his signature on the maintenance map, to certify that the road shown thereon, has vested in the County by means of the maintenance map provisions of Florida Statue 95.361(1)(a)(1991). ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation to authorize the Chairman to certify that the road shown on the maintenance map has been vested in the County under the provisions of the maintenance map provisions of Section 95.361(1)(a)(1991) of the Florida Statutes. 33 SEP 211993 .Booz 90 u, RM.
