SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET
Subject: Resolution Granting an Amended and Restated Grant of Temporary Easement to Bellsouth
Telecommunications on Watson Island
Background Information:
The City Commission approved the plat for the southwest side of Watson Island on October 12, 2006,
Resolution No. 06-0608 entitled "Watson Island Southwest". As part of the plat requirements an
easement must be provided for each of the existing utilities.
The City Commission approved a Grant of Easement to Bellsouth Telecommunications, Inc.
("Grantee") on December 14, 2006, Resolution No. 06-0718. Due to possible title encumbrances that
may affect lender financing of the Flagstone Island Garden's development, it is necessary to amend
and restate the grant of temporary easement to provide a release of this temporary easement upon the
lines being relocated.
The Grantee requests an easement of a six (6) foot wide by two thousand eight hundred twenty five
(2,825) feet long, and a six (6) foot wide by one hundred twenty nine (129) feet long temporary, non-
exclusive easement running down the east/west length on City -owned property located at Watson
Island, Miami, Florida. This grant of Temporary Easement will be used to construct, operate,
maintain, add, and/or remove such systems of communication, facilities. Currently there are areas
with underground utilities and above ground utilities, all new work and/or relocated facilities are to be
buried underground.
The Grantee shall automatically terminate the Temporary Easement upon the earliest of the following
two events to occur: (1) delivery to Grantee confirming that relocated lines have been installed, if
applicable, along the Florida Department of Transportation Right -of -Way located adjacent to the
property and recordation in the public Records of Miami -Dade County, of easement agreements
providing for permanent easements for the relocated lines; or (2) written release of the Amended and
Restated Grant of Temporary Easement by Grantee. The Temporary Easement further contains a
reverter provision that if the easement is abandoned or discontinued the Temporary Easement shall
cease and revert back to the City.
