Attached is the project file for the Boone Property Parking
Lot. Please add this to your permanent filing system.
Also, per our recent discussions, please pursue the
completion of the following items regarding the Parking Lot.

(d) Install a post in the ground in front of the wall
around the wells to prevent vehicle backing into it.
(e) Remove the existing yellow barrier posts on the
southeast corner of the property. (Get clearance
first from Police Dept.). If not removed, at least
straighten them and paint appropriately.
(f) Ask the Chamber of Commerce if they would consider
straightening the roof of the "wishing well ".
4. East Side of Indian River Drive:
(a) Contact the County to remove the Australian Pines on
Bettina Boudrout's lot. They are within the County
right -of -way. Explain to County we need removal
soonest to prevent dead trees coming down over their
Indian River Drive in a high wind.
(b) Consider adding relocated palm trees from Riverview
Park on City's lot on east side of Indian River
Drive.
5. Engineering /Ongoing Maintenance Items:
(a) Periodically regrade the entire surface of the
parking area to smooth out any ruts /ridges. Add
marl /shell fill as necessary.
(b) Get quotation for increasing the size of the
concrete apron at the exit to allow better feed of
stormwater runoff into the curb and gutter system.
(c) I have asked Mosby's office to provide basic
calculation of impact on our existing stormwater
management system there if the City ever decides it
wants to pave the lot with either asphalt or porous
concrete. Please obtain a copy of their statement
of impact for this file. [See me or Bruce Moia at
Mosby's.]
Please see me regarding details if necessary.
Thank you.
