spring lake manor subdivision

Tom Sawyer appeared before the Board, representing M. F. Flynn who owns this Subdivision near Fruitland Park, requesting the Board to take over for maintenance the streets in this Subdivision.  Mr. Sawyer stated FHA has certain requirements that have to be met, and will not approve the loans unless they are assured that the County, or somebody, is going to accept and maintain the roads.  Therefore, Mr. Sawyer requested that the County take over for maintenance all roads in Spring Lake Subdivision.  The Board stated the County is not in a position to pay for subdivision street maintenance, which, countywide, would involve hundreds of miles of streets.  The Board thinks the people who live on the streets should pay for the street maintenance.  Mr. Theus stated if the Board does this one, will certainly have to do more and cannot start a precedent.  Motion by Commr. Dykes seconded by Commr. Babb and carried, that the Board is not at this time in a position to take over for maintenance the streets in Spring Lake Subdivision.

gas and water mains in subdivision

Mr. Sawyer also brought to the attention of the Board the gas and water mains in subdivisions, requesting permission for installation along the County roads right of way.  He suggested if permission is given, should be stated that will be a public hearing if want to move the lines.  Mr. Duncan and Mr. Goodson were instructed to make a study of this and report to the Board.  The Attorney for the Propane Company to work with Mr. Duncan on the proper type of contract.

Mr. Theus reported that he had a letter from L. J. Jenkins, County Superintendent re the condition of road right of way on Sunnyside Drive.  Trees hanging over the road and is a hazard to school buses.  Mr. Duncan stated should request the property owners to trim the trees.  Mr. Theus to furnish Mr. Duncan with names of property owners in order that he can write requesting that three trees be trimmed.

WHEREAS, the said County Engineer has submitted a statement showing that application No. FLA 12-1-60B, including the work at Ferndale, was approved by the Regional Director of Civil Defense on the 4th of April, 1961, and was also approved by the State Civil Defense Authority; and

John May of Inland Abstract & Title Company appeared before the Board re:  The action taken by the Board this morning refusing to maintain streets in subdivisions outside of municipalities.  He stated if they did not maintain the streets this would kill FHA projects and asked that an investigation be made before this action is taken.  Mr. May suggested that the Attorney for the Board be instructed to get in touch with FHA and discuss this matter.  No action was taken by the Board on this request.

bassville park subdivision

Bob Webb of the County Engineer’s office came before the Board and stated that Harry Padget, Surveyor, was in the Engineer’s office and said he had talked to Mr. Goodson about a Plat in Bassville Park, and at that time Mr. Goodson gave him a verbal okay for undersized lots in the Plat, provided they sold them in multiples of twos.  Commr. Dykes said he does not think should accept this on half size lots.  Mr. Duncan said they had done a great deal of work on this before the Zoning regulations went into effect.  Mr. Babb thinks the Board would get in trouble doing this and asked that Webb tell him this before he goes any further with it.

Clerk Owens was instructed to tell Bob Webb to type up the checks for the Zoning Commission and get Mr. Goodson to sign them as of the date of the reports.

miller construction company

Memorandum to the Board of County Commissioners from C. E. Duncan, County Attorney:  Referring to the letter of Miller Construction Company, Inc., of Leesburg, dated July 12, 1961, in which they request that the County Board determine a speed limit and also the limits as to vehicular traffic on the roads in a Subdivision and also the acceptance of the area for maintenance by the County, I have checked the Statutes referring to the authority of the County Commissioners and it appears that Section 336.01 of the Florida Statutes reads as follows:

“The county road system shall consist of all public roads outside of municipalities, not included in the state highway system or state park road system and such municipal connecting links and extensions as may be agreed upon by the boards of County Commissioners and municipal authorities.”

Section 336.02 reads in part as follows:

“The County Commissioners are invested with the general superintendence and control of the county roads and structures within their respective counties and may establish new roads, change and discontinue old road, and keep the same in good repair in the manner herein provided. . . . . . . .”

Section 317.82 reads in part as follows:

“local authorities with respect to highways under their jurisdiction, may prescribe, by notice hereinafter provided for, loads and weights and speed limits lower than the limits prescribed in Section 317.73-317.95 and other laws, whenever in its or their judgment any road or part thereof, or any bridge or culvert, shall by reason of its design, deterioration, rain or other climatic or natural causes be liable to be damaged or destroyed by motor vehicles, trailers or semitrailers, if the gross weight and/or speed limit thereof shall exceed the limits prescribed in said notice; and  . . . . . local authority may, by like notice, regulate or prohibit, in whole or in part, the operation of any specified class or size of motor vehicles, trailers or semitrailers on any highways or specified parts thereof under its or their jurisdiction, whenever in its or their judgment, such regulation or prohibition is necessary to provide for the public safety and convenience on said highways, or parts thereof, by reason of traffic density, intensive use thereof by the traveling public, or other reasons of public safety and convenience. . . . . ..”

The first Section number described is quite broad in its application as to what the County has jurisdiction over and from that definition, it would appear that streets, avenues and roads in subdivisions can be considered as a part of the county road system, although there are other provisions which state that we are not required to take over actual maintenance and operation thereof without special order.

It would appear, therefore, that the County does have the authority to determine the speed in the Subdivision known as “Triangle Acres,” and also the weight of vehicles, but this would not necessarily mean that the County must take over the actual maintenance of the roads therein.

Mr. Duncan stated therefore, can in part approve Miller Construction Co.’s request, WHEREUPON, on motion by Commr. Dykes seconded by Commr. Simpson and carried, the following Resolution was adopted:

WHEREAS, a subdivision known as Triangle Acres, located between Tavares and Mount Dora, is predominantly residential and many homes have been built in said Subdivision, and are occupied by the respective owners thereof, and

WHEREAS, many children live in said Subdivision and excessive speeds on the streets create a distance hazard to the children, and to the grown people who occupy said area; and

WHEREAS, it has been brought to the attention of the Board of County Commissioners, that frequently the operators of motor vehicles have traversed said streets at an excessive rate of speed, endangering the lives of those who live there; and it has further been brought to the attention of the Board of County Commissioners, that the streets in said Subdivision, which are not constructed for heavy travel, are being used by large and heavy trucks and trailers, to the damage of the surface of said streets and the continued use thereof by heavy vehicles, will ultimately destroy the surface of said streets;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, that a maximum speed of thirty-five (35) miles per hour be fixed on all streets in said Triangle Acres, which is not included within any municipality in Lake County, and that proper signs be erected on said streets, setting forth said speed limits.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, from the adoption of this Resolution, no motor vehicle, or vehicle of any description, having a gross weight, including loads, of more than 2-1/2 tons, be permitted to traverse the streets in said Subdivision; and that proper signs be erected, setting forth the load limits permitted on said streets.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that anyone violating the provisions of this Resolution, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall be punished in accordance with Law for such violation.

request by city of tavaRes for overpass

Request by City of Tavares for overpass at the intersection of SR 19 and Kentucky Avenue in Tavares.

Clerk Owens read a Resolution for the City of Tavares making the above request,

WHEREUPON, on motion of Commr. Dykes seconded by Commr. Simpson and carried, the following Resolution was adopted:

WHEREAS, it has been brought to the attention of the Board of County Commissioners by Resolution adopted by the City Council of the City of Tavares, that there now exists a hazardous and dangerous crossing at the intersection of State Road 19 and Kentucky Avenue, in the City of Tavares, Florida; that said Crossing is particularly hazardous for the reason that school children living in Lakewood Park North of the right of way of State Road 19, will be required, during the school term to cross said road at least twice every day and in some instances, four times a day; and

WHEREAS, plans for four laning said Highway, to be included in State Road 500, are underway and the four-laning of said State Road will increase the hazards, particularly for school children, at said point; and the Board being advised that in excess of one hundred children will cross said Highway every day as above set forth, during the coming school term, and for their safety, a pedestrian overpass should be constructed over State Road 19 (proposed State Road 500), at the approximate location of Kentucky Avenue intersection;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, that the State Road Department be requested to include as a part of the construction plans for State Road 500, the construction of an overpass at the approximate location of the intersection of State Road 19 and Kentucky Avenue, in the City of Tavares.

Motion by Commr. Dykes seconded by Commr. Simpson and carried, the following Resolution was adopted:

WHEREAS, it has been brought to the attention of the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, that the right of way map for State Road 500, Section 11010-2501 & 11090-2502, pertaining to the four-laning of State Road 500 between Tavares and the Dreamboat Corner South of Eustis, no entrance has been provided for Subdivision known as El-Red Motor Court, the entrance for which is located approximately Station 400 on the right of way Map for the above road, and

WHEREAS, said access road is located almost directly across from one of the two entrances to Trustone Block Plant, which manufactures concrete blocks;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, that the State Road Department be requested, in the preparations of construction plans for the above road, that a crossover be located at approximately Station 400; and that an access be provided for the El-Red Trailer Court entrance and Trustone Block Plant.

DISCUSSION on purchase of right of way on SR 44 from East city limits of Eustis to LaRoe corner and other requests to be made to State Road Department.  Motion by Commr. Babb seconded by Commr. Simpson and carried, the following Resolution was adopted:

WHEREAS, heretofore the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, adopted a Resolution requesting certain changes in the Tentative Budget of the State Road Department for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 1961, and ending June 30, 1962, requesting, among other things, the determination of the right of way for State Road S-44, beginning at the East boundary of the City Limits of Eustis and extending for one mile to LaRoe’s Corner and for funds to acquire such right of way, all of which will appear from a true cop of said Resolution, attached hereto, and made a part hereof; and

WHEREAS, it appears from the final approved Budget of the State Road Department that no reference is made to the said State Road S-44 East of the City Limits of Eustis and the Board of County Commissioners feels that this short stretch of road is one of the most dangerous roads in Lake County because of the nearness of fully grown trees to the Southerly edge of the curb on said road; and that said road is one of the most needed in Lake County.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lake County, Florida, that the Budget of the State Road Department be amended to:

1.     Provide for the construction of a bridge over the channel from Lake Eustis Southerly to a lagoon located on the Lake Shore Drive and West of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad right of way, all within the City of Eustis.

2.     Reduce the amount required for approach and intersection of State Road 500 at the Easterly end of Eleventh Avenue in Mount Dora extended to the right of way of said State Road 500; that is, to provide for a crossover in said State Road 500 and for access from the pavement to the right of way line only; and

3.     Provide for final determination of the right of way of State Road S-44, beginning at the East boundary of the City Limits of Eustis and extending for one mile to LaRoe’s corner and for funds to acquire such right of way.
