Resolution 122-1982RESOLUTION NO. 122 =1982 WHEREAS, the BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, has received an application from an d WALTER PERETZ , WHEREAS, in compliance with State Statute, it is necessary as part of the permitting procedure to read the following Biological Assessment into the Record, as follows: The applicant is proposing the construction of a riprap revetment along an open water shoreline, 320 feet in length and five feet in width. Total cubic yardage is estimated to be 120 waterward of MHW and 9 landward of MHW. The purpose of the riprap revetment is to provide shoreline protection and stabilization. A mobile crane will place the rock material, which will be delivered to the site by truck. Also applied for is the construction of a bulkhead along an adja- cent canal shoreline. This bulkhead is 90 feet long and will pro- vide private boat mooring for the applicant. The project site is located within Sugarloaf Shores Subdivision, a waterfront residential community bordering Lower Sugarloaf Sound, which is, in turn, bordered on all sides by Sugarloaf Key. Lower Sugarloaf Sound is a shallow expanse of water which opens, by way of narrow, naturally occurring channels, into the Atlantic to the south and the Gulf to the north. Sugarloaf Shores Subdivision was artificially created by dredging and spoiling, forming what is now a series of dead-end canals, all connected at their basal ends by a peripheral channel. This channel and its associated canals were boxcut to deep, undeter- mined depths. The recreated shorelines here consist of loose lime- stone and marl, overlying the original Miami oolite subsurface. Water quality offshore is good, although transparency tends to suffer during water turbulence due to a somewhat unconsolidated benthos consisting of finely textured inorganic silts overlying the basal subsurface. Seagrasses and algae cover most of the bottom, but tend to be somewhat patchy. More specific to the applicant's property, which apparently in- cludes both of the open water lots at the end of Bonefish Lane West, the lots further back have been bulkheaded, in large part, where housing development has occurred (lots are 10-30 percent developed in this area). The applicant's own lot (lot 104) has already been bulkheaded along its canal frontage. This lot, as well as lot 103, belonging to the applicant, is approximately 100 feet deep and 150 feet wide. The applicant's property is primarily upland, dropping sharply at the erosion line to form a 10 foot wide intertidal and sub - tidal littoral shelf before.dropping to the depths of an offshore perimeter channel. Lot 104 is presently being built on. Lot 103 is basically void of any development or significant upland vegetation. 9,) Resolution Wlater Peretz Seawall Page Two Erosion has occurred on all of the shorelines, although somewhat less on the canal shorelines. Relatively speaking, however, erosion has not been severe and permanently established marine communities are found below the approximate mean low water (AMLW) line. Green algaes were the dominant benthic macrophyte here. These algaes inclued Batophora sp., Halimeda sp., and scattered Penicillus'sp. Also observed here were turtle grasses (Thallasia testudinum),.although total cover by this species amounts to less than 10 percent of the total submergent shelf area. Also observed slightly below AMLW were fire sponges (Tedania ignia), several species of coral (Porites sp.) and a large banded tulip snail (Fasciolaria hunteria). Fish species found here included barracuda (Sphyranea barracuda), mojarra, and silversides (Membras sp.). In the upper reaches of the offshore peripheral channel. turtle - grasses were observed, however, a complete view of the channel bottom was not possible. The AMLW line is found about midway.between the channel dropoff and the erosion line (five feet -from the dropoff). Above this line, the intertidal zone is composed of loose limerock rubble with little vegetation, although mangrove growth could potentially establish itself here over a long period of time. Impacts associated with this project should be relatively insigni- ficant. As proposed, this project should stabilize this shoreline, thus preventing erosion and consequential turbidity and sedimentation over adjacent areas. BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, that the above Biological Assessment has been read into the Record and duly considered pursuant to Florida Statute 253.124 by the Board.of County.Commissioners of Monroe County, Florida, this .51�"kK day of at a regularly scheduled meeting.

Zoned RU-1. INTRODUCTION: This application is to be reviewed by the Board of County Commissioners in accordance with Chapter 19-111 (a) (5) of the Monroe County Code. DISCUSSION: A permit is requested to construct a 90 ft. long x 5 ft. wide con- crete vertical seawall, with rip -rap at its base, along the canal edge of lot 103 and for a 320 ft. long x 8.5 ft. wide rip -rap sea- wall along Lower Sugarloaf Sound. Approximately 219 c.y. of rip - rap will be required for this project. All but 9 c.y. to be placed between the MHW and the MIX lines. The attached Department ,of Environmental Regulation report discusses this project in greater detail and should be read for additional information. REASON FOR PROJECT AND INTENDED USE: To provide boat dockage along the canal and to provide shoreline stabilization from erosion. EVALUATION: No adverse environmental impacts are expected as a result of this project. RECOM11ENDATION: Approval, however the applicant should use filter fabric between the rip -rap boulders placed along Lower Sugarloaf Sound. /mmp 92, t • t _Y_=CC!�ac'S 1 �y� `cam ` Y i IT .���>� PL1N_,NG, BUILDING & ZOi]ING DEPART2IENT PERMIT 1�- PE:'\ITT FOR EYC :/ATIO:`I THE DEPOSIT OF NO.
