The developer shall <br /> submit the proposed construction which he intends to do along <br /> with a cost estimate which has been certified by a Florida <br /> registered professional engineer to the City Manager. The City <br /> Manager shall determine if the proposed construction is an <br /> appropriate substitute for the road impact fee and the amount of <br /> credit to be given and the timetable for completion. <br /> 2. Where a proposed major network road runs through a <br /> development, and where the developer is only required to <br /> construct two ( 2) lanes of the roadway, the developer may elect, <br /> upon submission of a certified cost estimate as described above, <br /> and approval of the cost by the City Manager, to construct more <br /> that two ( 2) lanes and receive credit to the extent of the cost <br /> for additional lanes constructed. <br /> 3 .

Employers which relocate <br /> from an existing site within the City will be eligible for a <br /> rebate based on the increased number of jobs compared to the last <br /> payroll of the prior calendar year. <br /> O.R. 1742 PG 0175 <br />
