Councilman Mitchum questioned what would happen if this is not
approved. Mr. Hronec stated worse case scenario, if this isn't
approved, is they would continue to seek the outstanding
approvals necessary to build the line along SR 442.
Councilman Hays questioned if Mr. Hronec had any input from DOT
one way or the other that this would in any way stop or slow down
their proposal to widen SR 442. Mayor Hayman stated DOT
presently has our project on hold pending the resolution of this
issue.
Mayor Hayman stated when DOT informed him they were redesigning
the road because they were going to run the lines on SR 442, he
went ballistic. It reduces the lanes and endangers the
probability of sidewalks, curbs and gutters on both sides of the
road without giving up a lot of transportation right -of -way or
lane.
Councilman Mitchum questioned if anyone has discussed with DOT
with the road widening project, the possibility of underground
lines. Mr. Hronec stated there has been no specific discussion
along those lines.
There was a brief discussion regarding still being able to have
bike paths on SR 442.
Councilman Hays questioned asked how much more right -of -way is
required on SR 442. Mr. Hronec stated they haven't acquired an
easement on every property along SR 442. We would be able to
design the line in such a way that they would occupy only those
parcels that we had obtained with the poles themselves.
Mayor Hayman stated there are three alternatives that will
adequately describe the impact of each of the alternatives of the
location of the utility lines on 18th Street, the location of the
utility lines on SR 442 and the impact on road model A, road
model B and road model C. It is quite possible that after we
compare them together and look at it we would make a much better
informed decision. He has similar concerns expressed by citizens
about the impact of this on SR 442.
Councilman Hays can't see doing this through that neighborhood
until they look at better alternatives.
Councilman Mitchum made a motion to continue this until FP &L and
DOT can be present, second by Councilwoman Martin. Councilman
Hatfield feels if need be, they call a Special Meeting just for
this issue.
Mr. Hronec stated they invited DOT to be at the meeting to speak
as well. Unfortunately there is no one there to speak on their
behalf. Perhaps some of those issues could have been resolved
tonight.
The motion CARRIED 5 -0.
