Water acquisition purpose:
To purchase properties at bargain prices, which are appropriate for improvements and will provide public access to the St. Johns River, Halifax/Indian River, and the Atlantic Ocean. Priority will be given to properties that have acquisition partners with at least a fifty percent (50%) cash funding match or are offered at a purchase price substantially below appraised value as determined by the county. Funds will be geographically distributed and acquisition will focus on properties that provide maximum public access. (Resolution 2011-119) For information on other ECHO resolutions click here.
