Attachments: Staff Report Sample Agreement Commissioner Moss received clarification from County Administrator Jason Brown regarding the width of bike lanes planned for Indian River Boulevard during the resurfacing project. He explained that the road could only accommodate five -foot -wide bike lanes due to lack of right-of-way, drainage concerns, and cost considerations. Administrator Brown offered assurance that newly constructed roads were planned with seven -foot bike lanes whenever feasible. Chairman O'Bryan informed that this project was planned to match up with the south end of Indian River Boulevard which would also have five -foot -wide bike lanes due to land constraints and safety concerns. He noted that the Department of Transportation (DOT) had pledged funds for road resurfacing, not expansion, and that five-foot bike lanes were acceptable to DOT, as well as an improvement to existing conditions. A motion was made by Commissioner Adams, seconded by Commissioner Flescher, to approve staffs recommendation. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Chairman O'Bryan, Vice Chairman Earman, Commissioner Adams, and Commissioner Flescher Nay: 1 - Commissioner Moss Indian River County Florida Page 6
