BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: April 7, 2015
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Elliot Kampert
SUBJECT: Destin West Dock Riparian Buffer Encroachment
DEPARTMENT: Growth Management
BCC DISTRICT: Commission District 2 - Commissioner Ketchel
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board of County Commissioners must decide whether it
wishes to allow an encroachment into the 25 foot riparian interest buffer on the western edge of
Beach Access 9.
BACKGROUND: The Destin West Condominium has finished construction of a 29-slip,
private docking facility to be used by residents and guests. The Condominium has obtained all
necessary local, state, and federal permits and authorizations. However, during the final
inspection conducted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), it was
discovered that the dock's wave attenuators and electrical circuit box platform intrude into the 25
foot riparian interest setback between the waterward extension of Destin West's property and the
waterward extension of the County's Beach Access 9. As shown Attachment 3, the wave
attenuators encroach by roughly 9 inches into the 25 foot setback, while the circuit box platform
encroaches by approximately 7.8 feet into the setback.
Neither the attenuators nor the platform extend over the County's riparian interest area (i.e., the
area seaward of the Beach Access 9); in fact, there will be 17.3 feet between the furthest edge of
the platform and the riparian extension of the property line between County-owned and Destin
West properties. In addition to Growth Management, the Public Works Department has also
reviewed the proposed encroachment and has no objections.
In order for the docks to receive final approval from the FDEP, the Board must authorize the
Chairman to sign the Letter of Concurrence for Setback Waiver.
OPTIONS: The Board may authorize or not authorize the Chairman to sign the Letter of
Concurrence for Setback Waiver.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the Board authorize the Chairman to sign
the Letter of Concurrence for Setback Waiver, and that this letter be provided to the Destin West
Bayside Property Owners' Association for transmittal to the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection to enable final approval of the docks.
