AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval to enter into a $0 Access Agreement with Alex Mendoza
for a temporary grant of easement and right of entry for use of his property during construction of
the C83 canal water quality improvement demonstration project for organic muck removal,
backfilling and air curtain installation in Key Largo. Access is being provided at no cost to the
County, but due to the heavy construction activity on his lot the owner has requested that his coral
rock seawall be stabilized at a value not to exceed $5,000.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
property is located at 729 Grouper Lane, Key Largo,
FL, Parcel ID 484190, and whose property abuts that body of water known as Canal #83. The
Mendoza property is a vacant lot on Canal #83, and is needed for a construction staging area and
associated work for the project. The lot will be used as a staging area for the storage of equipment
dewatering
and materials related to the activities of dredged soil material from Canal #83. It will
backfill material
also be used to temporarily store the and equipment. Equipment may include
dewatering equipment, vehicles, a trailer, and piping. Materials may include fill for the canal, the
final capping sand, and other items necessary to complete the backfilling portion of the work.
The Property Owner has acknowledged that the configuration of the Canal and the shoreline may be
such that during the project possible instability of the Canal area may pose a danger to the
homeowner property. The Property Owner has acknowledged he is aware of the potential danger to
his property, and has requested that the project move forward. In exchange for the
agreement to remove the organic material from the Canal and backfilling of the canal at no cost to
the Property Owner, the Property Owner agrees to hold the County harmless from any liability
related to the Organic Removal Project. The County also
coral rock seawall at a cost not to exceed $5,000, which will be provided by the construction
contractor to be hired.
The construction contractor will also install a temporary construction fence for safety, which will be
removed after completion of the project. The County may terminate the Agreement at any time
upon written notice to the Property Owner prior to the beginning of storage on the property. No
homeowners or visitors will be allowed to enter the staging area. These controls and safety

considerations, which are part of the approved plans and in the contract documents for the
construction contractor to be selected, will protect the safety of the homeowners and visitors.
The Property Owner has acknowledged the inherent risks to him during construction and has
requested the project go forward. The County may terminate the Agreement at any time upon written
notice to the Property Owner.
