The purpose is to recognize greenways and blueways and the underlying <br />reason is to give the County the opportunity to get more points in FCT (Florida <br />Communities Trust) grant applications. It is consistent with the overall philosophy of the <br />County in its land acquisition program. The Planning & Zoning Commission unanimously <br />recommended this request be transmitted to DCA. Jungle Trail is a designated greenway. <br />The Indian River Lagoon is considered a blueway. Staff recommends transmittal of this <br />amendment to DCA and again request they not review it. <br />June 10, 2003 <br />11 <br />
