Kaferi Jr., P. <br />County Engineer <br />FROM: <br />David B. Cox, P.E., Civil Engineer Qb- <br />SUBJECT: <br />Request for Floodplain Cut and Fill Balance Waiver for Bermuda Club <br />Planned Development <br />REFERENCE: <br />PD -99-03-06 / 98100141-003 <br />DATE: August 4, 1999 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />R.K. Engineering, Inc., on behalf of John Genoni, the developer of Bermuda Club Planned <br />Development, is requesting a waiver of the cut and fill balance requirement of Section 930.07(2)(d) <br />of the Stormwater Management and Flood Protection Ordinance. Bermuda Club received special <br />exception uselconceptual planned development plan approval from the Board of County <br />Commissioners on April 6, 1999. The project is located along the east bank of the Indian River <br />Lagoon, adjacent to the north property line of Sea Oaks in Section 26, Township 31, South, Range <br />39 East. The site is located in special flood hazard area Zone AE with base flood elevations of 8.0 <br />feet and 9.0 feet N.G.V.D. The ten year stillwater elevation is 5.0 feet. The proposed displacement <br />of the floodplain below 5.0 feet for which the waiver is requested is 35,493 cubic yards (22.0 acre- <br />feet) as indicated in the attached letter from the applicant's engineer dated July 27, 1999. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />The project meets the cut and fill balance waiver criteria provided in Section 930.07(2)(d)1. of being <br />situated in an estuarine environment within the 100 year floodplain along the Indian River and in <br />stairs opinion it appears that all other Stormwater Management and Flood Protection Ordinance <br />requirements can be met without adverse impact on other lands in the estuarine environment. <br />A separate request for a Land Development Permit has been received by the Public Works <br />Department. <br />Alternative No. 1 <br />Approve the cut and fill balance waiver request. <br />Alternative No. 2 <br />Deny the waiver request and require re -design to accomplish an on-site balance of cut and fill. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Staff recommends approval of Alternative No. 1. <br />AUGUST 17, 1999 <br />23 <br />BOOK F'AGE �' <br />
