<br /> Commissioner Macht noted that the scrub lands along the east - west boundary of the
<br /> Collins property do offer some development potential .
<br /> Utilities Director Don Hubbs questioned whether the proposed reduction in the
<br /> Collins assessment was predicated on a conservation easement or simply a delineation of the
<br /> wetlands .
<br /> G . M . Knowles , 13850 CR- 512 , Fellsmere , protested the cost of the project and stated
<br /> that he had a commercial building in Lake Worth with 125 feet of road frontage and the cost
<br /> of obtaining water was $ 3500 on a very busy road . It did not seem possible that it would
<br /> cost $ 8500 in Fellsmere . He also questioned whether an easement donated to the City of
<br /> Sebastian for utilities several years ago would be included in the assessment .
<br /> Mr . Chastain stated that he had spoken with Mr . Knowles and the project does cost
<br /> more than the average project but it is hoped that the benefits will also be above average .
<br /> Chairman Ginn questioned whether the square footage has been reduced by the size
<br /> of the easement , and Mr . Chastain responded that it had not . That easement runs all along
<br /> these properties and all the properties have the same easement .
<br /> Carmon Strobel , 1605 US # 1 , Sebastian , questioned what square footage has to do
<br /> with water usage and felt that an assessment based on road frontage would be more
<br /> equitable . He also questioned why Sebastian cannot get a grant to assist in this water project
<br /> as was obtained in Fellsmere .
<br /> Utilities Director Don Hubbs noted that the assessment is divided into equal shares
<br /> whether it is based on front footage or square footage . Odd shaped parcels make it more
<br /> difficult but square footage works because the full gain to the property is proportional to the
<br /> size of the property .
