The other responses Ireceived were verbal and are as follows: The City of Port St. Lucie informed me that all equipment rental businesses fall into "Sec. 158.126. - Service Commercial Zoning District (CS)" of their zoning rules which is also a Commercial Zone. The City of Fort Pierce informed me that a crane service would be classified in either their "Sec. 125-207.- As you can see, all other municipalities in St Lucie County accept crane services in a commercial area.

I do not understand what "tabling" RMB's application for another month accomplishes. Yous stated that there are no clear legal or code issues upon which they could deny our request but it seems that some members oft the board simply' "do not want" to see any increase in these types of endeavors sO they are hoping for one of two things. First, they hope we give up and move out sO they don't have to deal with it. Second, they plani to use their proposed "moratorium" tol keep delaying the  process or deny us altogether.  Ihave been doing business in South Florida for over 40 years and have never experienced anything like this.  Where do yous see this going from here?

First, it's apparent thati irrigation lines have been jetted or bored under North Indian River Drive. You: should not bet too surprised to hear that the Village prohibits any work ori improvement within its right ofwayv without a permit, not only when cutting a paved surface but also for underground boring. Accordingly, you do need to get a permit fort the work being done. I'm enclosing our permit form. The standard permit feei is $1,200.00 but I'll ask the Board about an adjustment Inc describing the type of work for1 the project, please include the purpose, size, type and number of pipes or sleeves installed, and the method ofi installation, as well as a description of, or proposed marking for, thel location. Please submit the completed form to Carl Peterson. The other point is that the work being done at this location is, as currently contemplated, leave an: accessory: structurei in front of the residence. Thati is not permitted in our code. goingto Itis very clear that no accessory structures may extend in front oft the front wall of the residence. The bottom linei ist that to leave the structure located ini front oft the house will require a variance. A copy of Section 9 oft the Land Development Code ont the variance process is enclosed.  based on thel less intrusive nature oft the work.    Mr. Brooks Peed Pagel 2  Ont the variance request, there is no required form, but please address each Section 9.4.0. That can be submitted to my office with the $50.00application: point fee.  outlined at  Richard  RVNjr/dw Encls.  CC: William Thiess, Mayor (w/o encls.)

What/noticed was that the piece at the west end of the canal (that would be lying west of the southward extension of the east boundary of the Palmetto right of way) is part of the road right way on the subdivision plat, extending south as far as the south boundary of the canal. See attached. The Village later abandoned the south 140 feet of the right of way (also described as the part of Palmetto lying south of Peninsula) sO the ownership would have  passed to the adjacent owner(s)-now the Hendrens.  1    Once Isaw that, Ichecked the deeds and see that the parcel, the south 140 feet of the right of  way, was deeded to Rouse Road LLC, their company.

There was no safety fences along the whole route. I also saw nature parks along the way and there were some homes nearby. I would like to suggest a 5-foot to 10-foot fence along booth side of these tracks. This would prevent anyone from getting on the tracks by accident.
