Aerial for Culvert Acess Agreement  
Culverted Road Crossing Maintenance Agreement - Vero West  
Business Park.pdf  
Deputy County Attorney Susan Prado discussed the 30-foot-wide drainage canal  
right-of-way that had been established by the Kenilworth Estates Plat, which Vero  
West Business Park, LLC sought to develop. To access the property, a culverted  
road was needed to cross the right-of-way, and a maintenance agreement had been  
prepared between the County and the Vero West Business Park Property Owners’  
Association (POA). The agreement held the POA responsible for maintaining the  
culvert and road crossing, relieving the County of any obligations. Before finalizing the  
plat, clarifications on payment and maintenance responsibilities were necessary. The  
agreement would be recorded in public records to ensure clear responsibilities for the  
POA regarding the culvert and road crossing.  
Ms. Prado informed Commissioner Moss that an internal road was currently in place,  
primarily connecting two private parcels owned by the applicant. This road did not  
facilitate any external traffic.  
A motion was made by Vice Chairman Loar, seconded by Chairman Flescher, to  
approve staff's recommendation. The motion carried by the following vote:  
5 -  
Aye:  
Chairman Flescher, Vice Chairman Loar, Commissioner Adams, Commissioner
