The stepping stones were originally installed in 1983. BACKGROUND and ANALYSIS: The construction of the Surf Dweller complex was completed in 1983. Stepping stones were placed on County property south of the Surf Dweller’s property line by the contractor. The stepping stones provide unobstructed travel for the ground units to the beach walkover that goes to the beach. The stones were removed prior to Hurricane Opal in 1995 then replaced after the storm. The stones remained until removed for Hurricane Ivan in September 2004. The stones were replaced in April 2012. After replacement the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) received a complaint and FDEP required the stones be removed. County staff discussed this matter with both Mrs. Heisterman and FDEP. FDEP recognizes that the area where the stepping stones are to be placed is on County property. FDEP requires approval by Okaloosa County and a written request submitted by the Surf Dweller Condo Association. Public Works provided a letter of approval to FDEP October 8, 2012 The request would then be reviewed by FDEP’s Office of General Counsel for approval. All information has been relayed to Mrs. Heisterman. To date FDEP has not received a request for the installation of the stepping stones from the Condo Association’s Board of Directors. RECOMMENDATION: Request Board direction should the FDEP approve the replacement of the stepping stones. Packet Pg. 174  8.4.1 RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: James D.

In order to prevent a delay to the Contractor a Change Order was issued for necessary work, but retroactive approval is required by the Board of County Commissioners. BACKGROUND: Gum Creek Farms, Inc. (GCF) was awarded the construction contract for the improvements of Old Antioch Road from Brodie Lane to Wilks Drive. Improvements included a complete removal and reconstruction of the roadway structure. Once the existing road surface and base were removed it was discovered that the remaining material would not be acceptable as sub-base due to a high organic content and the presence of several tree stumps. The solution to the problem is to remove the unacceptable materials and replace the area with clean sand. The existing contract with GCF includes a line item for excavating the poor material and placing the new material, however the scope of the change order
