BOOK 107 PAGE557 - Subject Property 3 Subject Property 3 is designated C-2 on the county's future land use map. Nearby lands on the barrier island, to the east of Subject Property 3, are designated L-1, Low -Density Residential -1, on the county's future land use map. The L-1 designation permits residential uses with densities up to 3 units/acre. - Subject Property 1 Containing one of the few remaining sizable maritime hammock/coastal strand communities in Indian River County, Subject Property 1 has several environmentally significant features. One of those features pertains to sea turtles. The coastal areas of northern Indian River County, including Subject Property 1, and southern Brevard County have one of the highest sea turtle nesting densities in this hemisphere. Therefore, Subject Property 1's ±673 linear feet of undeveloped ocean frontage combined with the adjacent Cairns Tract's (1,155 linear feet of undeveloped ocean frontage are important to the preservation of several species of sea turtles. Additionally, because Subject Property 1 is located in an area with a high probability of having archaeological sites, shell middens and/or other archaeological sites may exist on the property. Finally, eastern portions of Subject Property 1 are within a "VE" 100 year floodplain, with a minimum base flood elevation requirement of seventeen feet NGVD. - Subject Property 2 Providing habitat to several species of listed wading birds, Subject Property 2 consists of ±21 acres of coastal oak hammock and f 16 acres of wetlands (impounded estuarine salt marsh) associated with the Indian River Lagoon. The subject property is within an "AE" 100 year floodplain, with a minimum base flood elevation requirement of six to seven feet NGVD. - Subject Property 3 Subject Property 3 consists of f 16 acres of impounded estuarine wetlands associated with the Indian River Lagoon. Subject Property 3 also provides habitat for several species of listed wading birds. Mangroves are the primary native vegetation on the site. The subject property is within an "AE" 100 year floodplain, with a minimum base flood elevation requirement of five feet NGVD. - Subject Property 1 Although the site is located within the North County Water Service Area, water lines extend to Subject Property 1 from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant. When the North County Reverse Osmosis Plant, which is currently undergoing final testing, becomes operational, the site can be served primarily by that plant. Wastewater lines extend to the site from the North Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. - Subject Property 2 Water lines extend to Subject Property 2 from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant, while wastewater lines extend to the site from the South Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant.
