Right-of-Way Acquisition

We acquire land and easements (right-of-way) for roadway and stormwater facilities through negotiation or condemnation.

Florida Constitution provides that property may not be taken for public purposes without the payment of full compensation.

This is not to be confused with Right-of-Way Permitting, which deals with permits for driveways and other construction within the right-of-way.

Also not to be confused with Real Property Management, which deals with property acquisitions for sewer and water-related projects, parks and recreation, and with leasing of County property.
