Staff: Lake Carolina intersection project will require about 17–20 property acquisitions
Summary
Unidentified staff reported the Lake Carolina intersection improvement project is about 60% through field inspection plans, expects to acquire roughly 17–20 properties for right-of-way, and plans to submit final right-of-way plans this quarter; construction is tentatively targeted for 2027.
Speaker 1, an unidentified speaker, told the meeting the county's planned improvements at the Lake Carolina intersection will require the acquisition of about "17 to 20 properties" and that design work is about 60% complete. "We're looking at acquiring 17 to 20 properties," Speaker 1 said.
The update, delivered as part of staff project briefings, said the team has submitted field inspection plans and after finalizing the official layout will complete right-of-way plans and deeds. Speaker 1 said staff have begun estimating costs and preparing maps and deeds and will submit the final numbers to "Tim" for review to speed the acquisition process.
The presentation included scheduling notes: office review plans, described as work to calculate quantities, are expected to begin in the first quarter; after deeds and utilities relocation are addressed, staff will update the Phase B schedule. "We have done what we call field inspection plans, which is 60%," Speaker 1 said, noting that final right-of-way plans would follow once the official layout is set.
During a brief question-and-answer exchange, Speaker 2 asked how many parcels would need to be purchased. Speaker 1 said 17 parcels have been identified and another three to four parcels are potential additions, giving a working estimate of approximately 17 to 20 properties. Speaker 2 also asked whether the phase length matches related work and whether construction is expected in 2027; Speaker 1 answered that the phase is similar in length and that construction is "probably" planned for 2027, and that the project will face comparable obstacles to adjacent phases.
The presenters mentioned "Tim" and "Shannon" while describing prior discussions and review steps; the speakers did not provide last names or titles for those individuals in the record. No formal motions or votes were recorded on the item during this session. Staff said final right-of-way plans are anticipated to be submitted for review this quarter.
