DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Indigo East Community Development District (IECDD) owns the SW 84th Street right-of way as depicted on the Indigo East Phase “A-A” and “B-B” (Indigo Plat) as recorded in Plat Book 8, Page 35 of the Public Records of Marion County, Florida. The County’s SW 80th Avenue widening project will require improvements to the connection at SW 84th Street. Improvements include adjusting the shoulder curve radius, installing new curb and gutter, and milling and resurfacing. Construction activities in this area will also include impacts to the landscaping and an existing “Indigo East” entrance sign. Landscaping will also be impacted by stormwater infrastructure installation within Tract B-2 of the Indigo Plat, which is also owned by IECDD.
This agreement grants a Temporary Construction Easement from IECDD to the County. It also sets forth that the County will reimburse IECDD for the cost to replace the affected landscaping, and that the County will remove and protect the existing “Indigo East” entrance sign on SW 84th Street during construction. The County will reinstall the sign after construction at the County’s expense. In addition, the agreement specifies that the County will be solely responsible for maintaining the new stormwater infrastructure within Tract B-2.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral. This is included in the 2025/2026 Transportation Improvement Plan as project numbers TIP073815 and STC073815.
