Background Information:
The Department of Public Works partners with County municipalities to better define right-of-way maintenance responsibility in areas where jurisdictional boundaries are shared. The resolution serves to declare public right-of-way over a portion of Taylor Park along that portion of 16th Avenue S.W. in Largo. Jurisdictional responsibility of the road segment is anticipated to be part of a future Road Transfer Interlocal Agreement between the County and City.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no cost to the County for declaring public right-of-way, however an overall reduction to future maintenance costs will be realized when the Road Transfer Interlocal Agreement between Pinellas County, Florida and the City of Largo, Florida is complete.
