Ms, Heyden stated that this item aDd the next two items are in collDl:dion with an expansion to
the Poinciana Elementary School. She reviewed Planning and ZoniDa Depanment
Memorandum 95-474, Florida Power & Light and Southern BeU had no objection to the
abandonments, Florida Gas Co6Jpany had no objection provided an casement is dedicated.
Comcast has not yet responded. Staff recommended approval of the right-of-way
abandonment, subject to dedicatiOll of the easements requested by the utility companies and
any conditions contained within the fonhcoming response from Comcast.
In response to Mr, Rosenstock, Ms. Heyden advised that the abuttiD& property owners have
been notified of this request for abandonment, but staff has not received any responses from
them, She explained that the Director of Development, William Hukill, bad no objection to
the abandonment, provided an agn:anent with the abutting property owner is received because
the holder from the school assumes that the right-of-way that will be liven to the abutting
propeny owner wUl be used by the school. She stated that usually tile propeny is split
between the Pl'opelty owners, but 1he school assumes they will acquiIe all of the right-of-way
that is being abandoned,

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT BOARD

SEPTEMBER 12, 1995
Mr. Rosenstock stated that Ms. Heyden is asking this Board to vote on this matter, not
knowing if the abutting property owner wants to deed that land to anybody. He did not see
how he could cast an intelligent vote until he is informed of the feelings of the abutting
property owner.
Ms. Heyden advised that the Board should separate the abandonment request from the site
plan. The Board should deal with the abandonment application. The intricacies of the site
plan will be worked out through the site plan process. She pointed out that the School Board
may have to revise their site plan.
Mr. Hernandez advised that it is not the School Board's intent to acquire the entire right-of-
way. He displayed and reviewed the site plan and advised that the School Board is going to
use its half of the right-of-way for transportation. The other half will be used as an access way
for the School Board and its neighbor, Ann Miller.
With regard to the dedication of easements, Mr. Hernandez advised that it has always been the
School Board I s practice to grant those easements because they not only serve the community,
but they also serve the School Board. The School Board was waiting for final placement of
,
the new building because it might become necessary to rearrange or reroute some of the
existing utilities. The School Board was going to give as-built easements, depending on where
they are needed to service the school and the community. Mr. Hernandez had no problems
with meeting the easement requirements by all the utility companies.
Mr. Beasley asked if Ann Miller is the only person affected by the abandorunent, Mr. Agustin
answered affirmatively,
No one ~ the audience wished to speak on this matter; therefore, Chainnan Dube declared the
public audience closed.
