(RED) AGENDA ITEM DATES: MEETING DATE: 4/25/2017 COMPLETED DATE: 4/13/2017 COUNTY ATTORNEY: 4/3/2017 ASSISTANT COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR: 4/10/2017 REQUESTED BY: DEPARTMENT: PREPARED BY: Name: Don Donaldson, P.E., Engineering Department Director Name: Casa Pisces and Red Sky, Property Owners Procedures: None EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Engineering Carla Segura, Real Property Manager Estimated staff presentation: 15 minutes. Request for approval of a Memorandum of Agreement Concerning Submerged Lands Lease and Public Use Boat Dockage Area and Dinghy Dock (AGREEMENT) between the County, CASA and RED regarding the joint use of submerged lands and public use of boat dockage area and a dinghy dock located in the Manatee Pocket area of Port Salerno APPROVAL: LEG CA 8087a409 1 of 52

BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL: 1. Agreement drafted by: Martin County 2. Parties: Martin County CASA RED 3. Purpose: Address historic dockage configuration Improve public dockage opportunities 4. New/Renewal/Modified: Replaces expired agreement 5. Duration: Ten year term Renewable consistent with and contingent upon submerged lands lease renewal 6. Benefits to Martin County: Improve public dockage opportunities Limit County liabilities 7. Cost to Martin County: None Following the Manatee Pocket Boardwalk and neighborhood infrastructure improvement projects in 2010, owners of the properties adjacent to the SE Salerno Road right-of-way (ROW) requested that the County enter into an agreement to allow for the historic docking configurations that have existed on their properties for many years. An agreement was crafted that provided for the joint use of the County s riparian rights associated with the ROW in exchange for the public s use of a dinghy dock and three designated boat slips in two separate locations. The agreement was recommended for approval by the Community Redevelopment Agency on June 16, 2010. The Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the agreement at its December 14, 2010 meeting. The combination of the historical layout of the docks, the layout of the reconfigured docks, addition of the boardwalk, the revised neighborhood infrastructure, location of the three designated boat slips, obligations associated with alcohol licensing and the practices of the prior restaurant lessees caused some operational issues associated with the agreement approved in 2010. As a result of those issues, the revised submerged land leases to include the additional County land and add the County as a party were not executed; and the 2010 agreement was not renewed at the end of the initial term. Staff has worked with the owners of CASA and RED as well as the current lessee, All Trust Management, Inc., who is under contract to purchase the properties; to resolve all the operational issues and to protect the County s interest. The operational issues have been addressed and the AGREEMENT is being presented today for consideration. Summary of AGREEMENT The County owns ROW on the Manatee Pocket with associated riparian rights shown as Parcel A on the attached Exhibit A. CASA and RED are owners of adjacent waterfront property with associated riparian rights to Parcels B and C, respectively, on Exhibit A, and as referenced in Sovereign 8087a409 2 of 52

Submerged Lands Leases with the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund of the State of Florida (Exhibits B and C ). The AGREEMENT provides for the following: 1. The parties will become co-lessees on the submerged lands leases in order to perform certain activities within the respective riparian areas. The rent for the submerged lands leases shall be paid by CASA and RED. 2. The County will grant to CASA and RED the use of a portion of riparian rights associated with Parcel A to allow for mooring of boats on docks located within the riparian rights of Parcels B and C. 3. CASA has provided a dinghy dock for use by the public. 4. RED will grant the County, for general use by the public, the use of docking area along the boardwalk/dock adjacent to the 70' CANAL RESERVE area. 5. The County, CASA and RED shall be co-applicants for the associated sovereign submerged lands leases involving waters extending from Parcel A and adjacent property. However, CASA and RED have indemnified the County from any liability in connection with their docks and will carry insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 per claim for bodily injury and property damage and an aggregate amount of $3,000,000 and will name the County as an additional named insured. CASA and RED shall be responsible for the required applications. 6. The public will be provided with increased dockage opportunities with better visibility. 7. The County may install signs on the dinghy dock and the docking area in accordance with its standards. A copy of the Memorandum of Agreement and associated Exhibits will be provided via Supplemental Memo. ISSUES: The Agreement does not constitute a conveyance of riparian rights or title to land, nor as permission to expand the existing docks, any other structures thereon, or to increase or otherwise expand the current use of such property. LEGAL SUFFICIENCY REVIEW: This item has been reviewed for legal sufficiency to determine if it is consistent with applicable law, has identified and addressed legal risks, and has developed strategies for legal defensibility.
