..
Project Manager:
Ray Wazny
Public Works Director
..
Amount of Request:
$12,940,000.00
..
Description of Project:
The 25th Street project involves widening the existing two lane roadway to four
lanes, from Midway Road to Edwards Road, a distance of 2.4 miles.
Construction would include a storm water collection system with retention ponds,
and pedestrian walkways. Land acquisition for right-of-way and actual
construction could be completed in 3 years. Design plans and permits are
completed. The cost is $7,730,000.
..
...
..
The Midway Road project involves improving the existing two lane roadway, from
25th Street to U.S. Hwy 1, a distance of 1.3 miles. Construction would include a
storm water collection system with retention ponds, pedestrian walkways, and
widening of the bridge over the North St. Lucie River. Land acquisition for right-
of-way and actual construction could be completed in two years. Design plans
and permits are completed. The cost is $5,210,000.
...
..
The County will be requesting $12,940,000 for these two road projects. The
County is utilizing the cost of the remainder of the expansion of South 25th Street
as a local match for this project ($4.2 million).
...
Reason For Project:
...
This project will relieve major Central County congestion problems, open a new
badly needed East-West transportation corridor and eliminate serious
concurrency issues in the area.

\III
Amount of Request:
$2,000,000.00
Description of Project:
..
St. Lucie County is in the process of linking the entire pedestrian/bike route on
State Road A1A from the North County to the South County boundary. Much of
this work has been completed or will be under construction within the next year.
One eleven mile section on South Hutchinson Island remains to be funded and
constructed. This important link not only provides the connection for the rest of
the pedestrian/bikeway route but has a number of beaches and other
environmental settings along the route which can be better utilized if the
pedestrian/bike path is completed.
..
...
..
...
It is estimated that the cost of the South Hutchinson Island pedestrian/bike path
is approximately $2,000,000 including all elements of the program as defined in
the project detail on the following page.
III¡
The County is requesting $2,000,000 from the State utilizing a 50-50 matching
local grant which is coming from the impact fees being utilized to complete the
remainder of the pedestrian/bike path on South Hutchinson Island.
...
Reason For Project:
..
This project will help to link a regional bike path network and it offers a safe and
convenient biking and pedestrian opportunity for South Hutchinson Island
residents. It is an important new amenity that will improve the quality of life on
the barrier island.

St. Luåe County is requesting funding from the State of Florida in the
amoant of $500,000.00 for the Htrtchinson Island Plan.
The Hatchinson Island Plan is designed to improve and develop park
sites along the barrier island in St. Luåe County to be used as a
continuous park system.
The goal of the Hutchinson Island Plan is to ae4te a' ~~~tinuous park
System. This plan will take full advantage of existing parks and
mosquito impoandment by providing a natural experience for hiking,
biking, fishing, shell collecting, horseback riding, sunbathing, piedc,

docks.
The Htrtchinson Island Plan has three major parts or phases. First is to
renovate the existing parks; Second to develop collector sites; Third is
to connect each site with a'six to eight foot pathway.
The St. Luåe Board of County Commissioners has comnùtted
$500,000.00 in any effort to upgrade and improve our parks on
Hatchinson Island. Mosquito Control is in the continual process of
purchasing mosquito impoundment and Conummity Development is
working to improve pedestrian travel along A 1 A.
;-
For the pedestria.n, the parks will serve as rest areas, points of interest
and conector locations with restrooms, bike racks, shelter and drinking
fomrtaÌno
Imagine being able to ride a bike over twenty nu1es round trip in and out
of be.autÏfal beach parks and the natural Indian River Lagoon
environment. Stopping along the way to fish, site see or just rest before
continaing on.

DATE:
SUBJECT:
Board of County Commissioners fYIeO
James R. David, Mosquito Control Director ~'--
September 1, 1999
Jack Island Addition. Saint Lucie Countv
...
Staff requests that the Board consider presenting the Jack Island Addition project to
the Legislative Delegation, for the purpose of seeking their support to obtain 100 %
state funding for the project. The project would consist of the purchase of
approximately 40 acres of coastal wetlands and adjacent uplands. The wetlands
identified for purchase, share a mosquito impoundment (No. l6A) with Jack Island
State Park. The uplands sought for purchase, are contiguous with the
impoundment's eastern boundary, and, in one case, extend to State Road AlA. The
estimated cost of the acquisition is $524,362.00 (see attached detailed summary).

...
...
·

..

...
The benefits of the project are as follows:
Preservation of coastal wetlands
Improved public access (Americans with Disabilities Act, Public Schools, etc.)
Restoration and improved water quality in the wetlands of the site
Wetland lYIitigation for County Projects
...
Additional improvement/restoration costs are anticipated to be incurred, if the
acquisition is successful. The expenses, as yet unidentified in detail and unbudgeted,
would target the following:
..
·
parking and bridging/causeway construction for County, State and public
access from AlA to the Park
purchase and installation of additional culverts
purchase and installation of additional pumps
construction of one pump station
..
·

Funding sources for the improvements identified, could include; state public park
development grants, Surface Water Improvement and Management grants, Indian

..
River Lagoon License Plate grants, local/County contributions, and others.
...
The proposed enhancement of access wiII also result in increased use of Kings' Island,
a recent multi-party acquisition which included County ESL funds.
..
This project has the strong support of the Queens Cove Property Owners Association
(an adjacent development). The QCPOA currently provides the vehicular access for
Mosquito Control and the State Park managers to Jack Island and Kings Island, via
their private roads.
