Wallis Road project: land clearing to start July 15; FPL pole relocation could presage road widening
Summary
Town Administrator Tracey Stevens said a pre-construction meeting was held for the Wallis Road development; land clearing is expected to begin July 15 with construction taking around two years, and a county requirement that developer move FPL poles onto the property likely indicates future road-widening plans.
Town Administrator Tracey Stevens told the council that a pre-construction meeting for the Wallis Road development took place during the week of June 11 and that land clearing is expected to begin on July 15.
Stevens said construction is expected to take approximately two years. She added that one county requirement for the developer was relocating Florida Power & Light poles onto the property, which more than likely means the county is preparing for a future road-widening project.
Council Member Teresa Johnson asked for an update about how traffic studies affect development decisions; Stevens said she is still trying to reach County Engineer Mr. Ricks for an explanation and update. The discussion flagged potential dependencies between the private development and county transportation planning.
