While it is not possible to legislate quality design and construction, staff will ensure that all of the county's regulations are met when the property develops. With regard to the specific concerns mentioned in your letter relating to stormwater management, endangered species, buffering, lighting, and traffic, be advised that these issues are all addressed in the LDRs. In reviewing any project proposed for the referenced property, staff will ensure that there is no off-site impact because of site lighting, that all traffic issues are addressed and adequate roadway- capacity and safety is maintained; and that there is no adverse impact on endangered species (see section 929.09 attached). Through the site plan review process, staff will ensure that the appropriate buffers are constructed prior to completion of any commercial project. With respect to the stormwater quality issue raised in your letter please note that the county's engineering division has deferred stormwater quality review to the St. John's River Water Management District. Therefore, in regards to this issue you may want to contact the St. John's River Water Management District at 407-984-4940. As per your request, staff will contact you if and when a development application is filed for the subject property. Staff welcomes your input on any development proposed for the site. If you are aware of any specific characteristics of the site which could impact or restrict development, please inform staff now, so that staff's review can be as comprehensive as possible. Should you have any questions regarding any of these matters, please do not hesitate to contact me at (407) 567-8000, extension 253. Sincerely, John W. McCoy, AICP Senior Planner, Current Development and a letter from Chairman Macht to Dr. Lewis of March 9, 1995: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 1840 25th Strut, Vero Beach, Florida 32960 Telephone: (407) 5674K= Steven H. Lewis, MD 8680 Shore Lane Vero Beach, FL 32963 Dear Dr. Lewis: March 9, 1995 With respect to your letter about the 510 bridge and causeway, I favor maintaining that area much as it is now. The beautiful, park -like aspect would be destroyed by converting it to a high traffic artery, and there is no need to do so. With the Land Development Regulations the board of commissioners has approved, no significant development can occur on the barrier island. The Disney project is not designed to foster significant two-way traffic and the barrier island residential developments are very low density. JUNE 139 1995 69
