BACKGROUND:

The County has a project in design to make stormwater drainage improvements in the Chanticleer Subdivision area located just south of Gulf Beach Highway. The recent flooding event identified this area as needing stormwater improvements and it is anticipated that the County will be reimbursed some FEMA funding relative to this drainage project. There was an existing drainage pipe located along the west side of the property at 11640 Chanticleer Drive, but there has never been an easement granted to the County. The owners, Jack and Angelina Yannuzzi have agreed to donate the easement to the County to facilitate the project, which is designed and ready to go out to bid.

Board approval is required for the Board's acceptance of the donated drainage easement.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

Funds for this project are available in Fund 112, “Disaster Recovery,” Cost Center 330493, Object Codes 54612/56101, Project #ESDPW46.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:

The Drainage Easement was approved as to form and legal sufficiency by Stephen West, Senior Assistant County Attorney.

PERSONNEL:

These actions are consistent with the provisions of Section 46-139, Escambia County Code of Ordinances.

IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:

Upon Board approval, staff will proceed in compliance with Section 46-139 of the County Codes.
