HomeMy WebLinkAboutRE Cape Canaveral Roadway Improvements (43)Tom,
Please see attached.
As for the size and scope of the entry feature at the south end
easement we are talking about perhaps a wrought iron- looking archway,
or maybe a clock tower with some wrought iron-looking fencing. Something
timeless, classic and elegant. Whatever we do, there will be a
significant amount of quality landscaping. I’ve attached a photoshopped
sketch that was floated around limited Staff that didn’t get a whole lot
of interest. In fact, it definitely won’t be this. I’m only sending it
to give a sense of a max scope and size. Wrought iron arch/fencing or
clock tower would be visually less intensive than this. Our goal is a
streetscape entry feature that pays homage to the original roadway to
space – the “trail to the moon”, or something like that. Visually
connecting the past, present and future. We are working with a designer
at the moment and I will keep you informed as it progresses.\
Please let me know if you need anything further.

1) is there anything you can send me on Atlantic proposed design at the
A1A and Atlantic intersection. We need to see this specific to the
easement you need for the sidewalk realignment.
2) what do you think the timing is relative to being able to send us
your thoughts on size and scope of monument. I know it's putting the
cart before the horse to ask for design parameters before it's been
designed, but the way Cumberland is treating a rash of things as
"partial takings" in the lease we need to address this issue up front
(I.e next week or two) so that we don't face claims of rent abatement
due to the fact that they feel the eventual design from the city is too
large of a visibility obstruction. Am sure you can appreciate this
quandary.
Let me know your thoughts on the above.
Thanks

Cumberland needs any information it can get its hands on to
understand the scope, timing and potential impact that the planned
improvements to both Atlantic Avenue and A1A may have on the property.
The lease is asking for all sorts of reps and warranties as to
the fact that these roads will not change, which obviously is an issue
for us. We need to show them as much as is publicly known and have
these uncertainties acknowledged by them.
Are the Atlantic Avenue improvements finalized? Please send me
what presentations, staff reports, or other plans that you have with
respect to this work.
I have the latest FDOT reports, which are vague, with respect to
A1A I believe. Can you send us the latest that you have.
Visibility
Cumberland lease also imposes penalties, as a partial taking, if
the visibility of their store or signage is somehow obstructed by a
governmental entity. This brings into question the size and scope of
the monument that Cape Canaveral is planning for the easement area that
it is requesting from the property owners. This means that before
finalizing the lease with Cumberland, or at least during their due
diligence period (over the next 90 days) Cape Canaveral will need to
come up with the size and scope of the monument so that Cumberland farms
will know what generally will be constructed in front of the store.
