EXPLANATION: The Village of Wellington (“Wellington”) has jurisdiction over Forest Hill Boulevard, as part of the Village Roadway System, from the south right-of-way line of the SFWMD Canal C-51 south to Quercus Court (the project limits).
The State of Florida Department of Transportation (“FDOT”) is authorized to undertake projects within Wellington’s geographical limits and Wellington is desirous of having this improvement constructed.
FDOT and Wellington agree to have FDOT construct certain improvements more particularly described as Financial Project ID 436307-1 (“Project”), a portion of which includes Forest Hill Boulevard (Attachment 1 - Highway Maintenance Memorandum of Agreement, Exhibit A - Wellington Portion of the Project).
FDOT cannot spend state funds for Off-system projects and therefore will acquire the necessary right-of-way, if needed, and then FDOT will proceed to construct the Wellington Portion of the Project.
On September 27, 2016, the Wellington Village Council approved Resolution No. R2016-66 supporting the FDOT Intersection Project at State Road 80/Southern Boulevard and Forest Hill Boulevard along with the donation of a temporary construction easement required for the construction of the bridge widening and intersection improvements included in the project (Attachment 2 - Resolution No. R2016-66 - Temporary Easement).
On January 23, 2018, the Village approved Resolution No. R2018-06 authorizing the Mayor and Village Clerk to execute the Temporary Easement (Attachment 3 - Resolution No. R2018-06 - Temporary Easement). On February 23, 2018, the Temporary Easement was recorded in ORB 29669, Page 1997-1982.
The parties hereto mutually recognize the need to enter into an Agreement designating and setting forth the responsibilities of each party.
