Commissioner Macht pointed out that we must decide if we are going to complete Storm Grove Road from Old Dixie to 58th Avenue, because that determination is necessary for the developing neighborhood from both community planning and engineering standpoints. He also pointed out that a railroad crossing is paid for and belongs to the people of Indian River County. Chairman Tippin predicted that we will have problems getting two railroad crossings so close together. Director Davis advised that it is possible to get crossings at 53rd and 57th Streets because the North Relief Canal severs the land mass, and we cannot completely cut off Hawks' Nest and leave them landlocked. Further discussion ensued regarding the railroad crossing at Hawks' Nest. Commissioner Macht felt that the Board needed more information and he preferred to defer making a decision. Deputy County Attorney William G. Collins II explained the background of the agreement between the County and Vero Sand Pines, and the involvement of Hawks' Nest, but Commissioner Macht preferred to have all the details in writing to clear up the issues that were raised. ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the.Board unanimously deferred this item until the county thoroughfare plan model is completed and staff presents more details. Attorney Chuck NeXinnon, of McKinnon Stewart Nall & McKinnon, representing the members of the Hawks' Nest Club, noted that the Board raised many of the issues that concern the owners at Hawks' Nest. He requested that he be notified of the consultant's report and that he be allowed to discuss the issues.
