An <br />addendum to the Agreement was subsequently approved by the Board on <br />June 21, 1994, to extend the original Agreement expiration date. <br />The Wabasso Scrub property is on the County Land Acquisition <br />Advisory Committee's (LAAC's) list of environmental land under <br />consideration for acquisition. <br />On May 23, 1994, the Board approved similar FCT Conceptual Approval <br />Agreements to cost -share acquire the Prang and Lost Tree Islands <br />LAAC sites. In these two Agreements, the County opted to identify <br />the FCT as the lead agency to undertake pre-acquisition activities <br />and negotiations. These Agreements have an expiration date of <br />December 4, 1994, -but allow for extensions) as needed. <br />Last month, staff requested extensions to the referenced Conceptual <br />Approval Agreements in order to al -low completion of pre-acquisition <br />activities (title report, boundary survey, appraisals) and <br />management plan drafting prior to the agreements' expiration (see <br />attached). The FCT Governing Board, at its meeting of September <br />28, 1994, approved the requested extensions. <br />Staff now requests that the Board of County Commissioners approve <br />the attached Addendums to Conceptual Approval Agreements which will <br />extend the Agreements until April 71 1995 (Wabasso Scrub) and June <br />4, 1995 (Prang and Lost Tree Islands), for purposes of allowing <br />completion of pre-acquisition tasks and conceptual management <br />plans. <br />Projects Status <br />Wabasso Scrub <br />A title report of the Wabasso Scrub property has been completed. <br />Remaining pre-acquisition tasks include a boundary survey, two <br />independent appraisals, environmental audit, and conceptual <br />management plan. <br />5 BOOK <br />November 1, 1994 <br />
