600 - 2006
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA REQUESTING THE FLORIDA
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NOT TO SELL
RIGHT-OF-WAY ADJACENT TO U.S. 1 AT
APPROXIMATELY MILE MARKER 102.9, BA YSIDE.
WHEREAS, the Monroe County Board of Commissioners has passed Resolution 565-
1999 on November 10, 1999 establishing the policy of Monroe County to request that the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) deny any requests to surplus properties adjacent to U.S. 1
until the Board of Commissioners has taken action on the Overseas Heritage Trail and
Stormwater Master Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners makes the following
Findings of Fact:
1. The Florida Department of Transportation has determined that the sale or lease of
excess lands is prudent in order to reduce the liability and maintenance costs for FDOT.
2. The Florida Department of Transportation requests a recommendation from Monroe
County prior to the sale of available rights-of-way in Monroe County.
3. The current owner(s) of property, at the southwest comer of George S1. and US-l
approximately Mile Marker 102.9 has expressed interest in purchasing the adjacent US-l right of
way (ROW).
4. The Board has recommended denial of previous requests to purchase ROW in Key
Largo until the completion of the Key Largo Livable CommuniKeys Plan and Corridor Master
Plan.
5. The completion of the Key Largo Corridor Master Plan has identified the need for a
detailed study to focus on upgrades to the corridor.
6. It is uncertain how much of the available right-of-way will be required to implement
improvements along the corridor, however, staff has determined it is likely that the ROW at mile
Marker 102.9 will be so needed.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, that Monroe County requests the
Florida Department of Transportation not to declare the available right-of-way at approximately
Mile Marker 102.9, Bayside as surplus nor to sell same.
