Mark Grossman, 9960 86`h Street, speaking as an individual homeowner and as <br />President of the Vero Lake Estates Property Owners Association, expressed concerns <br />regarding the Vero Lake Estates MSTU and drainage project. He gave a brief history of the <br />MSTU, the drainage project and the MSTU Advisory Committee. He asked the Board to <br />consider reactivating the Advisory Committee and felt that much of the residents' surprise <br />and alarm at the scope of the project could have been avoided had the Advisory Committee <br />still been in place. He also mentioned the County's responsibility for keeping the canals <br />ditches cleaned. <br />Mr Grossman continued that his home and several others face on 86th Street which <br />will now be a canal. This will have an extreme impact on the value and desirability of these <br />homes. He was not sure what could be done but hoped there is a possibility that this canal <br />could be moved to 85th Street which does not have any homes fronting it. <br />Mr. Grossman then expressed concerns about the funding responsibilities of the <br />MSTU which he believed is now about $250,000 on top of the $50,000 to $60,000 already <br />spent. <br />Public Works Director Jim Davis presented the following POWERPOINTTM <br />presentation: <br />FEBRUARY 19, 2002', ;.' <br />
