Fr - 1-1 <br />BOOK PAGE <br />(CLERK'S NOTE: A copy of the letter to Mr. Dean has been filed with the <br />backup of this meeting.) <br />At the conclusion of the brief Solid Waste Disposal District meeting, Commissioner <br />Ginn expressed concern about Lost Tree and the channel (the bridgehead) from Silver Shores <br />Road. She understood an extension to August 16' had been granted for any complaints and <br />asked if County Attorney Vitunac had received a letter concerning same. <br />County Attorney Vitunac advised that the meeting was postponed. <br />Commissioner Ginn inquired as to the legality of the ownership of that submerged <br />land (the channel). <br />Chairman Macht thought there was no question as to title as the Court has declared <br />that it belongs to the State and the State has the power to convey. <br />Commissioner Ginn stated that was contrary to the information she got. <br />Commissioner Stanbridge pointed out that Lost Tree has de -linked the question of the <br />State ownership of sovereignty land from the SJRWMD permit. They usually go together <br />and the SJRWMD will not issue a permit if there is a question of sovereign land involved. <br />The Lost Tree people have been successful in de -linking these agencies, so now there are two <br />issues: the subdivision on the islands and the issue on the sovereign lands. It is "divide and <br />conquer", because each agency looks at only the request that affects them, not the overall <br />situation that the County will have to appeal. The Coast Guard will look at the navigability <br />of the waterway, not the 9' of fill on the islands, etc. It is very complicated and that is why <br />she has been so insistent that the County hit the deadlines. Even though they say they extend <br />it, at some point in time they will say "the deadline was July 16" and we will be able to say <br />" yes, we presented our resolution." <br />July 13, 1999 <br />80 <br />
