(43%) total area Wetland impacts will require restoration/alternative permitting SJRWMD Lands OKR Extension Flagler County Lands

Northeast Palm Coast Corridor Greenway Acquisition Benefits Potential Additional Benefits of Land Purchase Wetland Mitigation – Potential to create mitigation credits for use of transportation and other city projects in lieu of purchasing mitigation credits from a wetland mitigation bank. Recreational Uses - Investigate passive recreational uses of the site to expand connectivity to other lands to expand public uses. Water Quality - Benefits water quality in the Pellicer Creek Basin Habitat - Expands the existing regional conservation corridor and ecological significance due to the unique linkage to conservation areas to the north and south. Primary Benefits of Land Purchases Cost Savings & Timing – Ability to avoid eminent domain proceedings. Ability to keep projects moving forward with the Interchange project schedule.
