Additional monies were provided by the Florida <br />Communities Trust. Thus, a major focus in redevelopment <br />of the site was the preservation, enhancement and <br />restoration of existing natural systems, such as the 2,500 <br />feet of Indian River frontage and the interior mangrove <br />swamp. Glatting Jackson ecologists evaluated fl ora and <br />fauna on this subtropical site, for both upland and estuarine <br />systems, and accumulated extensive species lists for <br />each. Subsequently, the ecological design process focused <br />on the protection and enhancement of these systems. <br />Stormwater treatment was retrofi tted into the existing <br />project, and integrated into the enhancement plan for the <br />interior mangrove swamp. The preservation and <br />enhancement of upland, mangrove and seagrass systems <br />was accomplished while providing recreational <br />opportunities for the citizens of Martin County. <br /> <br />~~ <br /> <br />-'~~.~ <br />'''''''~-',-,I <br />i~b;: ~~ .:"\: ~ <br /> <br />.;....,. <br />~ <br />;. . i,4 <br /> <br />~:~.~-" <br /> <br />AZCOM <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach I Design & Permitting Services of the Intracoastal Parks RFQ No. 12-04-04 <br /> <br />25 <br />
