Requested Action        (Identify appropriate Action or Motion)

The applicant, Dylan Larson, with Miller Legg, on behalf of the property owner Broward County Board of County Commissioners, is requesting a variance to exceed the maximum a public dock can extend into the waterway for a property located at 2701 West State Road 84.

 

Description of Action

The applicant has indicated that the proposed floating dock is to allow the public to gain access to the Secret Woods Park facility. No permanent mooring, hookups or boat ramps / slips are proposed, only temporary tie up to the proposed feature. This area of South Fork New River is a natural shoreline dominated by mangroves and is quite shallow in front of the park property. There is an existing boardwalk network with an existing observation platform. The proposed project will help expand the observation platform and construct the access walkway and dock off the observation platform. The proposed dock siting is located at approximately 22 feet from the shoreline (shoreline undulates due to natural mangrove vegetation) which is beyond the allowed maximum of 18.2 feet.  The Code allows for up to ten (10) percent the width of the waterway, or a maximum of twenty (20) feet, whichever is smaller, measured from the property line.  The width of the waterway at this location is 182 feet.
