Commr. Burhans informed the Board of a letter received from

Mr. Thomas L. Vaughn, Chief of the Bureau of Fisheries Management, Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, requesting, through Mr. Jim York, an attorney who represents S & S Marina, a delay of a final decision on the Pearl Street boat ramp until January 16, 1985. Commr. Burhans stated that Mr. York's client, Mr. Tworcger, has additional information that he would like to present to the Commission. He stated that a postponement had been granted previously, and recommended that the request be denied.

Mr. Lawson Snyder, representing Florida Game and Fresh Water

Fish Commission, appeared before the Board and stated that he has

a letter representing the viewpoints of the Game and Fresh Water

Fish Commission pertaining to the different proposals.

Sandy Minkoff, County Attorney's Office, stated that each of

the proposals could be legally accanplished in some method, and

would take a consensus of the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, the Board, and Mr. Tworoger.

Mr. Jim Stivender, Director of Engineering and Surveying,

presented to the Board a diagram of the proposal from S & S Marina providing additional parking along the south boundary which would double the spaces, and moving the road south into the existing right-of-way. He stated that encroachment would be allowed.

Mr. Stivender then presented the Board with a diagram of the

proposal presented by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission

allowing sixteen parking spaces on the north side and provide a

complete turn around with no change of land or encroachment areas.

Mr. Willett informed the Board that Mr. Tworoger had agreed

to pay for the altering of the road in his proposal.

Mr. Snyder read the letter dated December 21, 1984, from the

Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission which stated the

following:

1. The Fish Commission agrees to rerouting the present access road to a location running down the south edge of the eighty-four foot right-of-way.



2. The Fish Commission agrees to improvements such as tree clearing in the area marked on the diagram "Proposed Parking".



3. The Fish Commission also agrees to closing the Pearl Street ramp completely if replaced by another water front access site on the St. Johns River in Astor that is acceptable to area fishermen and boaters.



What the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission considers unacceptable are the following:

1. Due to the small size of the current easement, any storage of boats by the S & S Marina on the eighty-four foot easement is both impractical and unacceptable.



2. The proposal by the S & S Marina to acquire property within the eighty-four foot easement in exchange for property located south of our easement would only serve to compound the existing space problems.



Discussion occurred regarding the maintenance commitments of

the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission.

Mr. Willett stated that the cost to haul in clay and materials would be approximately $6,000-$7,000 should the County do the work. If it was contracted out it would cost approximately $15-$16 a foot because of hauling.

Mr. Fred Morrison, representing Mr. Tworoger, appeared before the Board and stated that the first time Mr. Tworcger was aware of the proposal by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission was at the December 8, 1984, meeting in Astor, and at which time was not acceptable by Mr. Tworcger.

Mr. Morrison discussed the problems that they have with Mr. Tworoger's CP recommending a chain link fence be erected along the road right-of-way on the south side of Pearl Street, and their reasons for requesting the encroachment. Mr. Morrison discussed the problems that he had with the proposal from the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission.

Mr. Morrison explained the proposal presented by Mr. Tworoger and stated that merits of the plan would provide more parking; it allows better access to Mr. Tworoger's property; it allows the fork-lift to be kept clear so that the boats can be taken in and out of the water; it provides for payment by Mr. Tworoger for the costs of moving the road; it provides continued mowing and upkeep of the right-of-way and continued dumpster service to the public.

At this time Mr. Morrison requested that the County

Commissioners approve Mr. Tworoger's proposal, subject to them being able to work with the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission in reaching a compromise.

Mr. Ralph Reeder, Astor Park, appeared before the Board and discussed previous actions taken by Mr. Tworoger regarding the construction of a boat lift without obtaining the necessary permits. At this time Mr. Reeder discussed the conversation held between Mr. Snyder and Mr. Tworoger at the December 8, 1984, meeting in Astor. Mr. Reeder stated that this was a public boat ramp that was constructed in 1962, with an 84 foot right-of-way, and the people in Astor are not requesting the County to move the street.

Commr. Burhans informed the Board and audience of a letter received from Senator Richard H. Langley stating "an even greater need for the boat ramp than when it was built in 1962. For this reason, I would respectfully ask that you not allow any encroachment on the public right-of-way to the Pearl Street boat ramp from either the private or business sector." Commr. Burhans stated that he had received a letter fran Mr. Carroll, Mr. Hongell, Mr. Surber, and Mr. Faircloth regarding the same.

Commr. Burhans discussed the resolution passed by the Board of County Commissioners on June 19, 1984, regarding the Pearl Street Boat ramp. At this time Commr. Burhans stated that his recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners would be to deny the request for postponement and to accept the proposal by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission as presented by Mr. Snyder.

Commr. Deems made a motion, which was seconded by Commr. Carson, to place the proposal presented by Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission on the floor for consideration and discussion. At this time the Board approved unanimously to accept the proposal presented by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission.

Mr. Jerry Sexton, Director of Development, informed the Board that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the CP in Rezoning Case #139-84-5, Peter Tworoger, with certain conditions. Mr. Sexton read the conditions stating that one of the storage sheds is on the County right-of-way.

Mr. Morrison stated that he understood that someone from the Code Enforcement Office made the determination that the shed did not have to be removed.

Mr. Sexton stated that the CP has to be amended before Mr. Tworoger can obtain the building permits for the structures that he has already put in, and that Mr. Tworoger has been cited.

On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Deems and carried unanimously, the Board amended the CP by removing the restriction of the chain link fence, provided so long as Mr. Tworoger's employees do not use the public right-of-way for the purpose of either parking, permanently or temporarily, while they are working on customers boats or vehicles. Commr. Smoak stated that the intent of the motion is unlimited accesss to Mr. Tworoger's property from the right-of-way on that road; if there are any violations, they will be brought to the attention of the Code Enforcement Board for action to be taken.

On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Deems and carried unanimoulsy, the Board approved and adopted the CP as amended.

On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Windram and carried unanimously, the Board directed the staff and Mr. Willett to specifically work out a plan of improvements with the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission for the existing boat ramp located on the right-of-way, and for the improvements necessary for that boat ramp to be brought up to the standards of use which is currently used, and to stay in touch with Mr. Andrews and his department in terms of their funding sources and their priorities scheduled.

There being no further business to be brought to the attention of the Board, the meeting adjourned at 3:15 p.m.
