REQUEST: The Community Development Department, Urban Beautification Services Division,
requests the City Commission review plans by the Oak Forest Wall And Beautification District
Advisory Board for a wall extension.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to infonn the Commission of plans by the Oak
Forest Wall And Beautification District Advisory Board to extend the Oak Forest Wall at the North
end of the development along Tuskawilla Road.
CONSIDERA TIONS:
The Oak Forest Capital Improvement Program was designed to provide improvements
to the Oak Forest Community consisting of a perimeter wall along Tuskawilla Road and landscaping.
The primary benefits of this program are: Noise Abatement, Light Abatement, and Beautification.
After the original wall project was completed, $25,000 in remaining capital funds were set aside by
the Advisory Board for a wall extension that would potentially be necessary after certain property
adjoining Oak Forest was purchased by residents, located at the North end of the development along
Tuskawilla Road.
In order to provide a unified aesthetic appearance for the Oak Forest Community, the
Advisory Board feels it is necessary for the wall extension to be constructed. Therefore, Staff is
taking the necessary steps to solicit public bids for the wall construction and research various options
for acquiring the necessary property needed for the wall to be installed. Two options are currently
available for placement of the wall extension. First option, the property between Tuskawilla Road
(Right-Of-Way) and Mr. Brian Oliver (Oak Forest Resident) will need to be purchased from the
current land owner, Mr. Todd Newby (Seminole Pines Assoc.), at an estimated cost of $5,000 (all
fees included). Second option, an easement would be granted to the City of Winter Springs by Mr.
Brian Oliver, which would allow the wall to be constructed on the edge of Mr. Brian Oliver's
property at an estimated cost ofless than $1,000.
