Director of Public Works Richard Szpyrka recapped the information contained
in staff's memorandum dated February 1, 2018, to provide background and
analysis on the proposed Gifford Neighborhood Plan (GNP) Project at 45th
Street and US 1. He reported that the proposed contract with the Florida East
Coast Railway, LLC (FECRR) would allow the County to construct an at -grade
crossing for a three -lane roadway configuration through the FECRR
right-of-way west of Old Dixie Highway; however, if All Aboard Florida
(AAF) rail service is initiated on the Treasure Coast, the crossing would have to
be reconstructed. He relayed that representatives of the Progressive Civic
League agreed with County staff that it would not be prudent to fund the
crossing at this time. He suggested pushing forward another project from the
GNP - the culverting of the 45th Street Indian River Farms Water Control
District canal.
Deputy County Bill DeBraal pointed out that the County would bear the total
expense if any changes or additions to the crossing became necessary due to the
advent of All Aboard Florida.
A motion was made by Commissioner Flescher, seconded by Commissioner
Zorc, to: (1) postpone action on (a) the License Agreement and the construction
of the 45th Street & US -1 Improvement Project until such time as All Aboard
Florida (AAF) provides the Florida East Coast Railway (FECRR) with crossing
improvements at 45th Street to accommodate the use of the FEC rail systems by
AAF, and (b) the improvement to 45th Street proposed by County Staff and extend
the Gifford Neighborhood Plan completion time frame of 2018 for Action Item 7.3
