There were no changes to the agenda.
Mr. John McKune, Gee & Jenson, was present to present
to Council an Intracoastal Crossing Alternative. Mr. McKune
told Council that work on the alternate route is still
proceeding.
The new Intracoastal Crossing Alternative is a process
in which pipes are bored from one side of the Intracoastal,
under the Intracoastal, to the other side of the Intracoastal.
Mr. McKune told Council that the cost of the pipe line would
almost double with the new alternative crossing. The good
part about the new alternative is the time factor and that
DER would not require a permit with this alternative. D.N.R.
would require an easement.
Cook asked why this alternative had been brought up.
McKune told Council this had been requested by Vice-Mayor
Stoddard.
Mr. L.D. Garrett, Reading & Bates, Houston, Texas
showed a film of how his company bores underground pipes
under waterways. Mr. Garrett told Council that their cost
is high because of the heavy trafficking of equipment in and
out of the area. He also told Council that removal of the
clay would be a problem.
