It is comprised of a residential neighborhood that contains a number of Frame and Masonry Vernacular style buildings and Craftsman Bungalows, a school, and two churches, and a small business area. The historic district consists mainly of one-story and two-story single family dwellings and less than 12 brick and frame commercial buildings constructed between the 1860s and 1940s. SETTING The Waldo Historic District is located in the northeastern quadrant of Alachua County, approximately 12 miles north of the county seat of Gainesville. Two major, four-lane highways pass through Waldo. State Road 24 divides as it goes through the city's small commercial district (Photo 1). A high overpass to the north of the historic district was built when US 301 was widened in the 1960s. The residential neighborhood in the district is distinguished by tree-lined streets, some of which are unpaved (Photo 2). The historic district is in the center of the city, which covers approximately two square miles. The CSX

Office of publication, Tallahassee, Florida Published quarterly by THE FLORIDA HISTORICAL SOCIETY Gainesville, Florida FORT PUPO: A SPANISH FRONTIER OUTPOST by JOHN M. GOGGIN From the viewpoint of anthropological analysis one of the most interesting aspects of the study of man is what happens when two cultures meet. When is there an integration of elements, and when an overwhelming of one culture by the other? Precisely what happened when the Spanish and Indians came together has been a fascinating subject of study by many archaeologists in Florida in recent years. It was exactly this problem which turned us from our study of the missions where Spanish priests and Indians came together to a consideration of the similar meeting of Spanish soldiers and Indians. Fort Pupo, being a small outpost, has been examined with the hope of shedding some light on this problem.

This influx of pure groundwater-maintained flows in the river throughout multi-year droughts and nourished flourishing populations of aquatic plants and animals. Problems • Total spring flows to the Santa Fe River have declined on average by 20 percent compared to the earliest baseflow records. Extreme spring flow declines are greatest upstream at Worthington Spring, 2 Blueprint for Santa Fe Springs Restoration Howard T. Odum Florida Springs Institute Santa Fe Spring, River Rise, Hornsby Spring, and Poe Spring, with zero flow and flow reversals evident during low rainfall periods. Significant flow declines are also documented in downstream springs, including Gilchrist Blue, the Ginnie Springs Group, and the Ichetucknee Springs System. • Long-term declining spring flow trends are the result of increasing groundwater extractions for urban and agricultural development. When rainfall variations are accounted for, the spring flow decline in the entire Santa Fe River is about 200 million gallons per day (MGD). • Over the past 70 years of record, nitrate nitrogen concentrations in individual Santa Fe River springs have increased between 1,000 and 80,000 percent, and by an average of 2,600 percent in the Lower Santa Fe River.

  • Natural Resources of Regional Significance
    NATURAL RESOURCES OF REGIONAL SIGNIFICANCE CONDITIONS AND TRENDS INTRODUCTION North central Florida is one of the largest planning districts in the state in terms of area yet one of the smallest in terms of population. As a result, the region has large expanses of undeveloped areas and unspoiled natural resources. The region consists of 6,813 square miles, all of which is classified by the Council as a natural resource of regional significance.54 Natural resources of regional significance are natural resources or systems of interrelated natural resources, which due to their function, size, rarity, or endangerment, provide benefits of regional significance to the natural or human environment.55 They consist of both coastal and inland wetlands, rivers and their associated floodplains, large forested areas, lakes, springs, the Floridan Aquifer, and land areas with the potential to adversely affect the water quality of the aquifer (stream- to-sink watersheds and high recharge areas). Listed species are also recognized as natural resources of regional significance.56 Regionally significant natural resources play important roles in the region's economy and quality of life. Drinking water for most residents is drawn from the Floridan Aquifer. The Suwannee-Santa Fe river system and fresh water wetlands serve a valuable role in regulating surface water runoff and flooding. The salt marsh provides a valuable breeding ground for many varieties of commercial seafood. Commercial forest lands play an important role in the regional economy, while public lands provide valuable resource-based recreation for north central Florida residents. Both private and public lands provide important habitats for the survival of native plant and animal species.

  • Comprehensive Plan
    Intergovernmental Coordination Element Data & Analysis I. Introduction Intergovernmental coordination is a critical component of the Comprehensive Plan. Local policies that ignore the impacts of other jurisdictional decisions risk impeded implementation or failure. The costs of delays and duplication can be avoided by anticipating the need for coordination, identifying the common goals of coordinating entities, and negotiating appropriate coordinating mechanisms. This report provides strategies for improving the coordinating mechanisms. II. Data and Analysis The Intergovernmental Coordination Element (ICE) Data and Analysis Report addresses the 9J-5.015 requirements as they pertain to the relationships among different governmental entities. The purposes of this element are to: 1. Inventory all units of government which provide services but do not have regulatory authority over the use of land; 2. Analyze the effectiveness of existing systems of coordination, specific problems and needs within each comprehensive plan element, and the impacts of development on areas of concern; and 3. Identify “areas of concern” which include resources and facilities in Alachua County and the City of Alachua based on data set forth in the North Central Florida Strategic Regional Policy Plan (NCFSRPP). Amendments to Chapter 163, F.S. require Alachua County and its municipalities, the School Board of Alachua County (SBAC), and other service providers to establish by agreement joint processes for collaborative planning and decision making. The areas of interest include population projections and public school siting, the location and extension of public facilities subject to concurrency, locally unwanted land uses and siting facilities with countywide significance. The City must amend its plan to establish the joint planning processes envisioned by amendments to the statute.
