V26-0010 Public Hearing - Vacating Petition by Joseph Bernhardt and Michelle Andersen-Bernhardt

BOCC Land Use · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

This public notice concerns a request to vacate a portion of a public drainage easement at 2327 Platinum Drive in Sun City Center. The property owners, Joseph Bernhardt and Michelle Andersen-Bernhardt, are seeking to remove a small part of the easement to resolve an encroachment from their home's exterior wall. This wall was built in 1998 and encroaches by about one foot along the 40-foot length of the house. The request is to reduce the 10-foot-wide easement to 9 feet in that specific area, affecting approximately 40.4 square feet of the total easement. This item has been approved by the BOCC Land Use board. The project involves adopting a resolution to vacate the easement, which includes costs for advertising, recording fees, and processing, covered by the applicant's fee. While this is a legal and administrative process, it may lead to future opportunities for businesses involved in property line adjustments, surveying, or legal services related to property rights. Early engagement could be beneficial as the process moves forward.
