Title
SECOND PUBLIC HEARING AND RESOLUTION - DESIGNATING REAL PROPERTY, IDENTIFIED BY FOLIO NUMBERS 4842-1934-0010 AND 4842-1934-0011 AND SHOWN IN EXHIBIT “A”, AS A BROWNFIELD AREA FOR THE PURPOSE OF ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION, REHABILITATION AND ECONOMIC REDEVELOPMENT; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND: HTG Arbor View, LLC (“Arbor View”) is requesting real property identified with Folio Numbers 4842-1934-0010 and 4842-1934-0011 to be designated as a Brownfield Area pursuant to Chapter 376.80(2)(c), Florida Statutes of Florida’s Brownfield Redevelopment Act. Arbor View is applying for this designation due to the fact that there is a history of agricultural and agrichemical application on surrounding, topographically up-gradient property where stormwater runoff to the subject property has created a perception of contamination. As such, this designation will enable Arbor View to access certain regulatory and economic incentives to mitigate and manage the risk and expense associated with the discovery of contamination and the necessary response.
RECOMMENDATION: For approval.
FISCAL IMPACT: none
