PURPOSE:
Kirby Smith Road, from Tyson Road, running north approximately 2 miles to approximately 450 feet west of Malverns Loop, is a County maintained road that lacks benefit of any dedicated public right-of-way along the length of the road.  The Roads and Drainage Division has a long documented history of maintaining this section of right-of-way and, in accordance with Florida Statutes, Section 95.361, when a County or Municipality regularly maintains or repairs a road for the immediate past seven years, such road shall be deemed to be dedicated to the public to the length and width that was actually maintained.  In accordance with this Statute and based on our records, Public Works has prepared a maintenance map depicting the area of Kirby Smith Road that has been maintained by the County.  Approval and recording of this plat map will vest all right, title, and easement over this section of road to Orange County.
