Staff is requesting that the Board approve the revised Jungle Trail enhancement project application and designate the Roseland Bikepath project, the Royal Palm Pointe project, and the Fellsmere Road (CR -512) Bikepath project as enhancement projects to be funded with the unused Jungle Trail funds of approximately $3,000,000 which DOT has approved using for other County projects. Director Keating continued that there are several other projects which will benefit from these funds; Indian River Boulevard paved shoulders; the causeway connector shortfall; the Gifford medical connector, and the AlA bikepath. Ruth Stanbridge of the Historical Society advised that the activities for the archaeological district will be only on publicly owned land. Chairman Eggert requested that "district made up of publicly owned land only" be added to the description of the proposed Jungle Trail archaeological district. Ruth Stanbridge added that the Korangy Site needs to be an added activity as the signs are large and miles apart.
