DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
SW 70th Avenue Road is located within Marion Oaks Unit Eight, a platted subdivision with public roads and drainage, recorded in Plat Book O, Pages 154-163. In February 2015, the Board approved Resolution Number 15-R-054, vacating a portion of the Marion Oaks Unit Eight plat including a portion of SW 70th Avenue Road, for the benefit of a future school site. The remainder of SW 70th Avenue Road provides access to the school site and other parcels within Marion Oaks Unit Eight.
A portion of SW 70th Avenue Road was recently constructed, associated with the Elementary School “W” Offsite Improvements (AR 31863), as submitted by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. on behalf of Marion County Public Schools. While portions of the road remain unconstructed, an extension of the road was improved west of Marion Oaks Manor to provide access to the school site.
The new roadway segment has been designed and constructed in accordance with Marion County’s engineering and construction standards. Staff recommends that this extension be accepted into the Marion County Maintained Road System upon successful final inspection, confirmation of compliance, and completion of the warranty period to ensure long-term performance and durability.
