IMPLEMENTATION Upon approval of the Board of County Commissioners, the County's Real Estate and Facilities Services Department's ELAPP Acquisition Manager will proceed to protect and acquire sites according to the acquisition policy and available funds. The County's Conservation and Environmental Lands Management Department's Environmental Lands Management Section manages preserved properties according to adopted Site Management Plan. 4 2017 ANNUAL JAN K. PLATT ELAPP REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Through ordinances approved by the Board of County Commissioners which presented referendums to the citizens, Hillsborough County has established the Jan K. Platt Environmental Lands Acquisition and Protection Program (ELAPP) to preserve environmentally significant properties. On March 3, 1987, a referendum providing for the collection of a .25 mill tax for four years for the purchase or protection of environmentally sensitive lands, was approved by the voters of Hillsborough County. A subsequent referendum in 1990 extended this tax for another 20 years. On November 4, 2008, the voters approved a third referendum (79%) for the issuance of up to $200 million in bonds. ELAPP is a voluntary preservation program and the County will not use eminent domain to acquire lands for preservation through ELAPP. Property does not become environmentally sensitive because it is approved for preservation through ELAPP; it is approved for preservation through ELAPP due to its environmental significance. Since its inception, the ELAPP Teams have completed 394 reviews and identified 130 sites as meeting the ELAPP criteria for protection or acquisition. Fifty-five sites are now considered as acquired. There are thirty-six sites that have been ranked as "Suspended" (not under consideration and/or no longer eligible for preservation) with most of them receiving this designation because they have been developed, though a few have this ranking because the owner has requested that the program not consider their property or staff was not able to negotiate the preservation of the "core parcel" of the project. The encroachment of residential development complicates the management of preserves, especially the use of prescribed fire. In conjunction with the Less Than Fee Policy, the ELAPP General Committee recommended to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) the use of conservation easements to preserve agricultural lands adjoining preserves, which was approved by the BOCC as part of the ELAPP 2008 Annual Report. As part of the ELAPP 2011 Annual Report, the BOCC also approved a new classification of sites to buffer existing preserves: Agricultural Buffers. Staff has expressed concern about the complications of managing preserves bordering residential areas. To help prevent the development of adjoining lands, the General Committee created the "Agricultural Buffers" classification. Since the classification is to assist in the management of preservation lands, staff with the Conservation Services Section evaluated potential properties and identified five sites. For the 2017 nomination cycle, there were three nominations that qualified for a full assessment, though one was widthdrawn at the request of the property owner who was moving forward with development. The Site Selection Team recommended adding the Fish Hawk Park Portion Addition and the Lake Stemper North nominations to the ELAP Program as Class 'C' sites. The Site Selection Team also recommended boundary modifications to the Alafia South Prong, Brooker Creek Buffer Preserve Addition, and the Cockroach and Piney Point Creek Sites From October 1, 2016 (the effective date of the last Annual Report) to September 30, 2017, approximately 55 acres was acquired with a total purchase price of just above $1,200,000. . 5 One of these acquisitions is an important in-holding in the Lake Dan Site. These negotiations were initiated in 2015. As of October 1, 2017, the program has acquired or participated in the preservation of about 61,630 acres at a cost of approximately $260.7 million. ELAPP has been very successful in receiving joint acquisition funding which has provided over $83.6 million (or approximately 32.07%) toward the purchase price for these properties. However, since the State has either not funded or only provided very limited funding for Florida Forever since 2008, the County has not been able to pursue acquisition funding from the Southwest Florida Water Management District or grants from Florida Communities Trust Program (FCT), both of which have provided the vast majority of the joint funding. The balance of the Lake Dan site that was submitted to FCT in 2011 was approved for funding in 2016 (from unneeded funding released from higher ranked sites). During 2017 the State approved appraisals and the County is eligible to receive 50% of the pro-rata cost to acquire this property (approximately $3.3 million). Staff is working on completing the requirements of the grant. Between FY2000 and through FY2008, the BOCC assessed the balance of the .25 mill not required for debt service from the County's operating budget. These funds were used for preservation of additional property through ELAPP and the management costs of sites preserved through the program. Due to fiscal limitations from reduced ad valorem revenue and the practicality of spending operating funds for capital projects, the assessment of the balance for the .25 mill for ELAPP was stopped in FY2009 budget. The management costs for ELAPP sites are now part of the County's General Fund. Since the 1990 referendum (where the voters approved the issuance of $100 million in bonds), the ELAPP Program has received a total of $135.8 million from bond proceeds and the balance of the .25 mill (referenced in the referendum and not required for the payment of existing debt) assessed as part of the County's operating budget. The $200 million referendum, presented as part of the November 4, 2008 General Election Ballot, passed with a 79% approval and provides the opportunity for additional capital funding. Unlike prior referendums, this ordinance does not have the .25 mill limitation (due to requirements of the bond underwriters) or the 20-year term limitation of the 1990 referendum (so that there is no urgency to issue the bonds until funding is needed). In addition to land acquisition, the 2008 referendum also approved funding related to capital expenses, which include certain capital management costs and restoration. While there are still numerous preservation opportunities, the fiscal challenges that are facing the County have also impacted the ELAP Program. The impact of additional operating costs associated with new acquisitions needs to be fully evaluated when an acquisition is pursued. As of October 1, 2017, ELAPP has approximately $2.75 million in bond proceeds available for acquisition (not committed to contracts). Unallocated ad valorem funds associated with the 1990 referendum are currently allocated for capital acquisition and management costs. Since annual 6 allocations are no longer associated with the program and staff costs are funded through general revenue, this report will only provide a financial summary as of the end of the fiscal year, which will include the available bond funds and the balance of the bond authorization that has not been issued. Since the last Annual Report, the Environmental Lands Management Section successfully applied prescribed burns to 2,472 acres, installed 2.5 miles of fencing for security, maintained approximately 450 miles of fire lanes, restored and monitored 2,808 acres of imperiled habitat, enhanced 248 acres of wetlands at the Lower Green Swamp Preserve through increased hydroperiods and the restoration of historic flow paths, as well as maintained 181 miles of hiking/equestrian/biking trails and 116 public access points, 25 of which include public parking areas. The Environmental Lands Management Section also expanded parking at the Triple Creek Nature Preserve, broke ground on a 4-acre trailhead for the Balm-Boyette Scrub Preserve and began providing environmental education tours and related programming on multiple ELAPP sites. In recognition of the fiscal challenges facing the County regarding ongoing operating costs, including those for preservation lands, staff with the ELAP Program is working with the ELAPP General Committee to establish a Strategic Plan to guide the program into the future. The objective of the Strategic Plan is to show how ELAPP can best achieve its preservation objectives while meeting the financial goals of the County. 7 JAN K. PLATT ENVIRONMENTAL LANDS ACQUISITION AND PROTECTION PROGRAM (ELAPP) REPORT PURPOSE The Jan K. Platt Environmental Lands Acquisition and Protection Program (ELAPP) provides the funding, policies and procedures for the County to identify, acquire, and manage environmental significant lands for preservation and compatible recreation. ELAPP is not a regulatory program and properties approved for preservation through ELAPP do not become environmentally sensitive by being approved for the ELAP Program; properties are in the ELAP Program due to their environmental significance. ELAPP is a voluntary preservation program and the County will not use eminent domain to acquire lands for preservation through ELAPP. BACKGROUND In the early 1980s, certain lands within Hillsborough County were identified for preservation under Florida's Conservation and Recreational Lands (CARL) Program. Due to competition for the limited state funds, there was not much progress on these acquisitions until the County offered to provide some of the funding toward the purchase of these lands. Based on the success of these projects, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) directed staff to investigate the potential of an environmental preservation program for Hillsborough County. Staff worked closely with volunteer citizens in reviewing options, investigated other local programs, and provided recommendations to the BOCC. On January 7, 1987, the BOCC approved an Environmentally Sensitive Lands Ordinance that took effect upon the passage of a referendum. On March 3, 1987, the voters of Hillsborough County passed the Environmentally Sensitive Lands Referendum with 71% of the total votes for a .25 mill tax over a four-year period "for the purpose of acquiring, preserving, and protecting endangered and environmentally sensitive lands, beaches, parks, and recreational lands in Hillsborough County". This Ordinance was used as the foundation for the Environmental Lands Acquisition and Protection Program (ELAPP or ELAP Program). The ELAP Program was founded on the basis of citizen involvement. Volunteer citizens, as the Environmentally Sensitive Lands Committee, worked with staff to develop the nomination criteria (Appendix "A"), program policies, and procedures. This group eventually became known as the "ELAPP General Committee", and monitors the program, provides for program policies, and addresses special issues or requests. In order to proceed with the implementation of ELAPP Ordinances, based on the recommendations of the Environmentally Sensitive Lands Committee, and to ensure citizen involvement through the process with limited government agency guidance, the Committee's 8 structure was extended to the key program function. Teams were established for the purpose of assessing nominations (Site Assessment Team). In response to the number of properties identified for preservation through ELAPP far exceeding the available funding, the BOCC adopted a second ordinance to present a second referendum to the voters. In 1990, the voters approved another ELAPP referendum with 73% of the total votes. This referendum authorized the County to issue bonds up to $100 million that would be retired by the levy of ad valorem taxes not to exceed .25 mill in any one year for up to twenty years. This ordinance also designated a portion of such funding for site restoration and management and to permit the conveyance of such lands to other public agencies for the purpose of preservation, provided the proceeds were used to acquire additional lands or retire bonds. In 1993, the BOCC approved amendments to the two ELAPP ordinances to address special issues. Both ordinances were amended to permit the sale of property rights not essential to the preservation of the land. This allowed the sale of water rights, density credits, or other rights through the appropriate approval processes. As part of some acquisitions, certain property rights not needed to accomplish the preservation objective were included in the purchases, such as easements. The proceeds from these sales were to be returned to the ELAP Program to fund site management and additional acquisitions. These ordinances were also amended to permit the sale of property to a public or quasi-public entity for purposes other than preservation, as settlement of actual or potential litigation, provided there was evidence that no feasible alternative existed, that the property rights were essential to the project, that environmental concerns of the BOCC were sufficiently addressed, and that the proceeds were returned to the ELAP Program for acquisition and management. Both ordinances were also amended to affirm that voters approved funding for these acquisitions in order to accomplish the preservation of environmentally sensitive lands for the benefit of the public, this being their highest public purpose. This affirmation helps insure that these lands are preserved. Additionally, the ordinance for the $100 million referendum was amended to permit the sale of property identified as an "Acquisition of Convenience". This permitted the County to sell property acquired for purposes other than preservation, provided the property was not required for preservation. Eligible property was to be identified before the County acquired title and, in the event the property was to be sold to a private party, the ELAPP General Committee was to be consulted regarding any restrictions on the property after the sale. All proceeds from the sale were to be returned to the ELAP Program to fund acquisition and site management activities. Copies of all ordinances and amendments related to this are included in Appendix "I". While the purpose of acquiring such lands will be for resource protection, all lands shall be open for public use and enjoyment to the extent that the County finds such use compatible with the preservation and protection of these lands. In an effort to stretch the local funding, the ELAP Program aggressively pursued other funding sources. ELAPP was the first local government to do a joint acquisition with SWFWMD. Shortly before the approval of the second referendum in 1990, the state initiated Preservation 9 2000, which provided $300 million annual to a variety of state preservation programs. At the end of Preservation 2000, the state established the successor program, Florida Forever. Funds from Preservation 2000/Florida Forever are distributed to Florida Communities Trust [FCT] (originally with the Department of Community Affairs and currently with the Department of Environmental Protection), the Southwest Florida Water Management District [SWFWMD] (Save Our Rivers Program), and Florida Forever, the successor program to the Conservation and Recreational Lands (CARL) Program, as well as several other land preservation programs. The approval of Preservation 2000 and the successor program Florida Forever proved essential to the success of ELAPP. The vast majority of ELAPP acquisitions have been done with some type of joint funding. Joint funding has also included mitigation from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and wetland mitigation through preservation for the Florida Department of Transportation. Unfortunately, in 2009 the State was experiencing financial challenges due to the severe economic downturn and since 2009, the Florida Legislature has either not funded, or provided very limited funding for Florida Forever related programs. Without funding opportunities from Florida Forever, it is doubtful that any recent or upcoming acquisitions will have joint funding. Through the ELAP Program, the County has also cooperated with the City of Tampa, City of Temple Terrace, and Plant City for funding applications on ELAPP sites. Typically, ELAPP sites within these jurisdictions are also managed by the associated municipality. Except for agricultural buffers, the adopted ranking policy scores a site on fifteen factors (Appendix "D"). The majority of the factors are concerned with environmental characteristics of the site but several factors address practical aspects. These factors include ease of acquisition, cost relative to size, and threat of development. Once all factors have been assessed, the site's total score is determined. The score a site receives determines its classification. Each classification has a priority, but no site within that group is given priority over others within that group. The policy was designed to permit multiple acquisition efforts and does not restrict negotiations, but provides guidelines so the program proceeds in a sensible and effective manner. Additionally, once a site has been classified, it is not re-ranked due to additional sites entering the program. A site can be re-ranked due to changing conditions, new information, or other factors that affect the site itself. There are currently 36 sites that have been ranked as "Suspended" due to the owners' unwillingness to sell, the property being developed or altered, or other factors as detailed in the acquisition policy. ELAPP is strictly a voluntary program. It has been formerly established that ELAPP will not use the power of eminent domain to acquire property. RECENT MAJOR EVENTS Between FY2000 and FY2008, the BOCC assessed the balance of the .25 mill not required for debt service from the millage available from the County's operating budget, with the funds available for management and acquisition of additional property under the program. Since the start of the program, approximately $21 million was provided from the first referendum and $135.8 million was provided from the second referendum, with about $63 million coming from 10 bonds and $72 million coming from the balance of the .25 mill. A total of $ 83.6 million has been received through joint funding. In FY2009, the BOCC stopped assessing the balance of the .25 mill due to the fiscal limitations caused by a significant economic slowdown and other events, as well as the fiscal practicality of funding capital projects with funds from the County's operating assessments. In an effort to establish an alternate funding source, the BOCC adopted an Ordinance to present a referendum to the voters of Hillsborough County. This referendum was to allow for the issuance of up to $200 million in bonds for acquisition and management of ELAPP sites. Unlike prior referendums, there is no limitation on the millage and there is no limitation on the term to issue the bonds. The millage limitation was eliminated to address the requirements of the bond underwriters. The term limit was removed so that the bonds would be issued when the funds were needed. Due to the term limitation in the second referendum, it was not financially practical to issue bonds after 2000. There was also no limitation on the funding toward management or restoration. This Ordinance acknowledged that the bond proceeds could be spent on capital-related costs, such as initial fencing, initial fire lane installation, and restoration. The balance of the 2008 Ordinance essentially mirrored the prior ordinances as amended. The referendum from this Ordinance was presented to the voters on the November 4, 2008 General Election Ballot and passed with the approval of nearly 79% of the voters. This referendum had the highest number of voters of the three referendums and had the highest approval percentage. With the passage of this referendum and the issuance of the associated bonds, the ELAP Program will have the funding to continue preserving lands in Hillsborough County for many years. The BOCC issued a total of $59.43 million, of which a portion was capitalized interest, so approximately $56 million of bond proceeds were available for acquisition and other capital costs. On September 18, 2013, the Board voted to consider renaming ELAPP in honor of Jan K, Platt for her significant contributions to creating the program. This was unanimously supported by the ELAPP General committee at their meeting on September 23, 2013. On October 16, 2013, the Board adopted a resolution renaming ELAPP to the Jan K. Platt Environmental Lands Acquisition and Protection Program. In 2013, the County Administration recommended that the ELAPP General Committee review the current policies to see if any revisions were needed to keep them up to date, as well as to make sure that the program maintained its function and integrity. As detailed in the 2013, ELAPP Annual Report, one of the other significant changes involved the elimination of the ELAPP Advisory Committee (EAC). On May 19, 2015, the SWFWMD Governing Board directed their staff to negotiate other options for the three Alafia River Corridor parcels before returning to the Governing Board to designate these properties as surplus lands and to consider options with Hillsborough County for two Lower Hillsborough Preserve parcels before offering them for sale. In response to this action, SWFWMD and the County established an agreement where SWFWMD conveyed the three parcels (totaling 165 acres) in the Alafia River Corridor to the County at no cost as well as two 11 parcels (totaling 39 acres) across US 301 from the Lower Hillsborough Preserve that will be conveyed at no cost to the County and the County would convey parcels in the Little Manatee River Corridor ELAPP site (totally 415.9 acres) that will be conveyed at no cost to SWFWMD with a Conservation Easement in favor of the County. The proposal also has SWFWMD funding the restoration of approximately 444 acres of uplands associated with the parcels conveyed to SWFWMD and adjoining lands in the Little Manatee River Corridor Site. This proposal allowed lands recommended for preservation by the County to stay in public ownership while SWFWMD provided funding for an important restoration project on the Little Manatee River. During the past year, County staff has been working with SWFWMD staff on the details of this restoration project. In recognition of the fiscal challenges facing the County with ongoing operating costs, including those for preservation lands, staff with the ELAP Program is working with the ELAPP General Committee and executive staff to establish a Strategic Plan to guide the program into the future. The objective of the Strategic Plan is to show how ELAPP can best achieve its preservation objectives while meeting the financial goals of the County. It is anticipated that this Strategic Plan will be completed in 2017. AGRICULTURAL BUFFERS The management of ELAPP sites becomes more complicated if adjoining lands are developed for residential purposes. The proximity of homes can complicate or limit the use of prescribed fire (which is important to the management of all preserve lands). Additionally, with homes adjoining preserves there is the increased potential of feral animals and exotic plants, as well as unauthorized access. In an effort to help protect certain lands preserved, as part of the revisions to the Less Than Fee Policy, the ELAPP General Committee recommended to the BOCC the use of conservation easements for the preservation of agricultural buffers to existing preserves. The principle is that for certain lands adjoining preserves, any type of agricultural use (row crop, grove, etc.) is preferred to residential development. The use of agricultural buffers was approved as part of the Less Than Fee Policy in the ELAPP 2008 Annual Report. In accordance with the Less Than Fee Policy, County staff presented five sites to the Site Selection Team as part of the 2010 nomination cycle, which were approved as Agricultural Buffers and may be preserved as buffers to existing preserves in accordance with the Less Than Fee Policy. ACQUISITIONS AND FINANCIAL STATUS As indicated in prior Annual Reports, the program essentially received ad valorem funds for that portion of the mill associated with the 1990 referendum which were not required for debt service. It has been recommended that most of these funds will be kept for (i) acquisitions that cannot be funded through bond proceeds due to the conditions associated with tax exempt bonds; (ii) to fund capital costs that cannot be funded with bond proceeds; and (iii) as a reserve for future operating costs for the management of properties preserved through ELAPP until 12 additional revenues are available. In FY2012, a portion of these funds were appropriated for the Lower Green Swamp Preserve (f.k.a. Cone Ranch), with approximately $2.1 million allocated for initial operating and staff costs, as well as $3 million allocated toward future restoration needs. The fiscal limitations and challenges facing the County also impacted the ELAP Program. Decreased revenues have mandated prudence and caution regarding fiscal issues, including the impact of additional operating costs associated with new acquisitions. Currently, the primary focus has been targeting in-holdings and additions to existing preservation lands in an effort to limit increased operating costs. A Financial Status based on October 1, 2017 provides a financial summary of the current status of the program ("Where Are We Now") and a summary of the bonds issued associated with the 2008 referendum, which are provided in Appendix "E". Since the 2016 annual report, there have been two parcels acquired totaling approximately 58 acres. These two parcels had a total purchase price of just over $1,200,000 (all contracted properties have closed since the effective date of this report). One of these parcels is an important in-holding in the Lake Dan Site that was initiated in early 2015. As of October 1, 2017, the program has acquired approximately 61,630 acres with a total purchase price of approximately $260.75 million. The County has received over $83.6 million in joint funding (or 32.07%). Since the Florida Legislature has not provided any substantive funding since 2009, there are very few opportunities for joint funding of preservation sites. The balance of the Lake Dan site that was submitted to FCT in 2011 was approved for funding in 2016 (from unneeded funding released from higher ranked sites). During 2017, FCT approved the appraisals so the County is eligible to receive 50% of the acquisition costs (about $3.3 million) Staff is working on completing the requirements of thegrant. This includes an agreement with Tampa Bay Water to grant easements for existing facilities and terminate the original agreement that was used to create the wellfield. These easements will also resolve encroachment issues that would have prevented approval of the grant reimbursement. During FY2014, a statewide referendum was placed on the 2014 General Election Ballot to amend the Florida Constitution designating a portion of the documentary stamp tax revenue for land preservation for the next 20 years. This amendment was approved by nearly 75% of the voters. While the approval of this referendum provides the potential for joint funding from the state for ELAPP acquisitions, as of October 1, 2017 the Legislature has appropriated limited funding to programs that could fund land preservation in Hillsborough County. SITE MANAGEMENT A portion of the Countywide General fund, phosphate severance taxes, lease revenues, and restoration grants fund an Environmental Lands Management Section consisting of thirty-six permanent full-time members and four permanent part-time members. This section carries out a variety of land management activities that include site security, prescribed burning, exotic plant control, protected species recovery, and public access. Large-scale habitat restoration projects 13 are being accomplished through partnerships with other local, state, and federal agencies. Since the last Annual Report, the Environmental Lands Management Section successfully applied prescribed burns to 2,472 acres, installed 2.5 miles of fencing for security, maintained approximately 450 miles of fire lanes, restored and monitored 2,808 acres of imperiled habitat, enhanced 248 acres of wetlands at the Lower Green Swamp Preserve through increased hydroperiods and the restoration of historic flow paths, as well as maintained 181 miles of hiking/equestrian/biking trails and 116 public access points, 25 of which include public parking areas. The Environmental Lands Management Section also expanded parking at Triple Creek Nature Preserve, broke ground on a 4-acre trailhead for the Balm-Boyette Scrub Preserve and began providing environmental education tours and related programming on multiple ELAPP sites. . 2017 NOMINATION CYCLES For the 2017 nomination cycle, staff proceeded in the same manner to advertise in local media that nominations would be accepted through December 31, 2016. While three nominated sites qualified for a full assessment, one property owner requested their property be removed from the program since they were proceeding with development.. The other two nominations, Lake Stemper (North) and the Fish Hawk Park Portion Addition (an undeveloped County-owned park) were each ranked as Class 'C' sites by the Site Selection Team. The following three boundary modifications were also approved by the Site Selection Team: Alafia South Prong added about 30 acres on CR 39 north of Jameson Road. Brooker Creek Buffer Preserve Addition added approximately 250 acres along Patterson Road. Cockroach and Piney Point Creeks added approximately 345 acres south of Fulkerson Road. The location of the changes from these boundary modifications is shown on the map for each site provided in Appendix "H". The Site Selection Team has authorized staff to make modest boundary modifications for parcels adjoining existing ELAPP acquisitions if these additions are similar to the balance of the site and staff determines that they will provide preservation benefits. SITES RECOMMENDED FOR PRESERVATION THROUGH ELAPP The following list of sites is classified according to the ranking policy. All sites meet the established selection criteria and will be considered for acquisition or protection, although efforts will be concentrated on sites in Groups A & B. The Parks, Recreation and Conservation Advisory Board reviewed and approved the recommendation at their monthly meeting on ________________. 14 CLASS "A" SITES NEW SITES No new sites CURRENTLY APPROVED SITES BALM SCRUB ADDITION +/- 3,845 ACRES Location: Between Balm Wimauma Road and West Lake Drive south of the Balm Scrub site.

Status: The majority of this property has been developed and it is not feasible to consider acquisition. SIMMONS TRACT +/- 80 ACRES Location: Land located adjacent to the Boyette Tract on Pringle Branch, a tributary of the Fish Hawk Creek. Status: The Real Estate Department has presented offers to the owners who have rejected them based upon their estimation of value. This parcel is now combined with adjoining lands as the "Pringle Branch". SWEETWATER CREEK RESTORATION +/- 54 ACRES Location: Just south of West Hillsborough Avenue and north of a County-owned park, Sweetwater Park. Status: Nearly entire site has been developed and it is not feasible to consider acquisition. 48 TROUT AND CYPRESS CREEKS CORRIDOR +/- 2,400 ACRES Location: Land between Interstate 75 and C.R. 581 in northern Hillsborough County, which includes a section of Trout Creek, adjacent to SWFWMD's Wilderness Park, and connects with the Cypress Creek ELAPP site. Portions of the original nomination have been developed or are proposed for development at this time. Status: The majority of this site has been developed. The undeveloped area in the western portion is added to the Cypress Creek site. TUCKER JONES +/- 186 ACRES Location: West of Highway 301 on both the north and south sides of Tucker Jones Road. Status: At the request of the owner of the core parcel, his property was removed from consideration. Since it is not feasible to acquire the other parcels without the core parcel, it is not practical to pursue this project. WOODBURY SITE +/- 121 ACRES Location: Southwest corner of Woodbury and Lakewood Road, north of Hwy. 60 and the Seaboard Coastline Railroad in Brandon. Status: Prior to the nomination, this site was under contract and has since been developed. WOOLLEY TRACT +/- 670 ACRES Location: Land located west of Interstate 75, east of 78th Street, north of Riverview Road, and south of Madison Avenue. Status: At the time of nomination the site was in advanced stages to modify existing regulatory approvals and has since been developed. ZINDLER +/- 25 ACRES Location: Land located on the Little Manatee River adjacent to and across the river from the Little Manatee River State Recreation Area. The boundary of this site has been modified to address the "Crenshaw" nomination. Status: The acquisition of this site required a contract on the Zindler and Crenshaw parcels contingent upon each other. The owner of the Zindler parcel presented a position of value that was not supported by the current potential of the property.
