FROM: John Hofstad
SUBJECT: Public Hearing for Nature Lake Transportation Infrastructure Agreement
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BCC DISTRICT: 1
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Nature Lake of NW Florida, LLC has requested this Public Hearing
for consideration of a Transportation Infrastructure Agreement associated with the development
of the Nature Lake subdivision off of Lake Silver Road.
BACKGROUND: Nature Lake subdivision is a proposed three phase development containing
160 single family lots. Phase 1 of the development has been approved through the development
order process, however remaining phases generate traffic that exceeds the capacity available on
monitored segments of the roadway system; more specifically along SR 85 north of Crestview.
In an effort to offset the impacts the development has to the roadway network, the Developer is
proposing to provide the following improvements and mitigation payment:
1. Turn lane and roadway improvements along Lake Silver Road at the location where the
development connects to the existing roadway.
2. Cash contribution to the County to be directly applied to the ongoing Capital Improvement
Project to convert Fairchild Road from a dirt roadway to paved roadway.
Construction of the roadway improvements along Lake Silver Road (valued at $50,000) are
required to be complete prior to approval of the Phase 1 construction and mitigation payments of
$61,224.00 and $42,856.00 shall be paid prior to the recording of Phase II and III plats
respectively. The total payment to the County ($154,080.00 improvements and cash) was
developed based on a proportion of the trips required for concurrency compared to the capacity
created by the improvements to Fairchild Road.
Approval of the Transportation Infrastructure Agreement does not cause approval of any phase
of the proposed Nature Lake Subdivision development; simply it vests concurrency for traffic
impacts.
In accordance with Section 163.3225 of the Florida Statutes, it is required that the requested
agreement be considered by the Board of County Commissioners by way of the Public Hearing
process. The Planning Commission reviewed the public hearing request on June 13, 2013 and
Packet Pg. 5
there was no objection presented. This public hearing is the final action required to comply with
Florida Statutes and obtain approval from the Board of County Commissioners.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove the Transportation Infrastructure Agreement for the Nature
Lake subdivision from Nature Lake of NW Florida, LLC.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the Transportation Infrastructure Agreement for the Nature
Lake subdivision from Nature Lake of NW Florida, LLC.

ARTICLE I. RECITALS
WHEREAS, the intent of the Florida Local Government Development Agreement Act (the “Act”) is
explicitly provided in Section 163.3220(2), Florida Statutes, which states as follows:
(2) The Legislature finds and declares that:
(a) The lack of certainty in the approval of development can result in a waste of economic and
land resources, discourage sound capital investment planning and financing, escalate the cost of
housing and development, and discourage commitment to comprehensive planning.
b) Assurance to a developer that upon receipt of his development order(s) he may proceed with
existing laws and policies, subject to the conditions of a development agreement, strengthens the
public planning process, encourages sound capital improvement planning and
