of the dock which makes no sense. He needs deep water for the boat and the lift to keep the <br />boat out of the water when it is not in use. If he is forced to moor his boat on the narrow end <br />of this dock, he will have to go back to DEP for another permit and there is not enough <br />l <br />depth at that end to moor the boat and operate the lift. He has a certified survey and he is <br />only asking for the same rights Mr. Collins has enjoyed for over a decade. <br />Mr. O'Haire continued that Mr. Collins hired David- Gibson, Chairman of the <br />Mapping and Survey School at the University of Florida to prepare his survey, while he used <br />Dean Leuthje for his survey. He asked the Board to either accept Mr. Leuthje's survey and <br />give him administrative approval to moor his boat on the north side of the dock or accept <br />Mr. Gibson's survey. <br />County Attorney Bangel asked if Mr. O'Haire had any exhibits to be presented to the <br />Clerk, and Bruce Barkett, Attorney and partner of George Collins, objected to anything <br />further being added to the record at this time. <br />George Kulezycki, President of GK Environmental of Vero Beach, agent for the <br />applicant, commented that if a second DEP permit has to be applied for, a seagrass survey <br />would need to be done as there are now issues involving Johnson Seagrass. <br />David Leuthje, Carter Associates, stated that he had been hired by Mr. O'Haire to <br />prepare a survey to establish the riparian lines and obtain his dock permit. There are many <br />different methods of obtaining these lines and he utilized as many as possible taking the <br />existing conditions into account. Mr. Collins' surveyor used the "allocation by area <br />method" which is just a different approach to the same end. <br />DECEMBER 18, 2001 <br />-82- <br />
