Management
Plans for Properties 160 Acres and Smaller
The Office Of
Environmental Services has received the following land management
plans for properties 160 acres and smaller in size. Acquisition and
Restoration Council (ARC) members who wish to have any of these
plans placed on a formal ARC agenda for discussion should contact
Jim Farr (jim.farr@dep.state.fl.us),
ARC Staff Director, prior to the date indicated below. Please note
that at least three ARC members must make the request for a plan for
a property smaller than 160 acres in size to be scheduled for an ARC
agenda. If we do not receive three requests by the stated deadline
to schedule a plan for consideration at an ARC meeting, the plan
will be approved.
Ocean Beach Boardwalk Land Management Plan (St. Lucie County, 3.73
acres, lease # 2526)
St. Lucie County has
submitted the Management Plan for the Ocean Beach Boardwalk. This
site is designated as a single-use property, and was leased for the
purpose of preserving, developing, operating and maintaining said
lands and property for outdoor recreational, park, conservation and
related purposes. Users may enjoy the area for swimming, fishing,
sunbathing, walking and picnicking. The site serves as a park on
the Atlantic Ocean, complete with parking, restrooms, pavilions and
picnic tables. The property partially encompasses a beach dune
natural community, an imperiled habitat, as well as the green turtle
and loggerhead turtle, both imperiled species.
The link below
contains the plan and associated maps. The plan will be approved by
the Division of State Lands unless three ARC members request that it
be placed on an agenda for consideration at a future Council
meeting. The deadline for requesting that it be considered by ARC
is Friday, May 4th, 2012.

Minor
Amendments to Management Plans
**none at this time**
Incompatible Use
Policy/Linear Facilities Policy Requests
At its meeting
on April 15, 2011, the Acquisition and Restoration Council (ARC)
approved a process to streamline approval of requests for
determinations of compliance with the Incompatible Use of Natural
Lands Policy and the Linear Facilities Policy of the Board of
Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund (Governor and
Cabinet).
For certain small-acreage access and utilities easements,
especially across recreational trails and for landlocked parcels,
the Division of State Lands will post requests on its website and
inform ARC members and interested parties by email. If three
or more ARC members ask that the request be placed on a future ARC
agenda, the Division will schedule it for a future meeting.
Otherwise, the Division will approve the request without taking it
to ARC.
