Mr. Thomas H. Trent, Civil Defense Director, requested permission <br />to join the Civil Defense Association, dues $5.00 per year, and to <br />attend a meeting in Gainesville on March 2. through March 4. He <br />also requested authorization to purchase twenty badges, ten shirts <br />and trousers for the communication division of the Civil Defense <br />organization at a cost of approximately $125.00. In order to achieve <br />satisfactory communication on a two-way basis with the Orlando District <br />Office of Civil Defense, the Vero Beach Amateur Radio Club has <br />recommended that a steel tower of at least 70 feet be installed <br />adjacent to the CD building, the cost of the tower, guying materials, <br />antenna and necessary transmission cable being approximately$216.50. <br />The above items will be purchased from Civil Defense Funds received <br />through the sale of surplus equipment. On Motion by Commissioner <br />McCullers, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald and carried, the requests <br />were granted. <br />The County Engineer submitted a location map of the Wabasso <br />Bridge approach AND on Motion by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded <br />by Commissioner McCullers and carried, the same was approved with <br />the recommendation of the State Road Department that limits the access <br />of 85th Street into U. S. #1. <br />The County Engineer submitted a right-of-way plan for Old Dixie <br />Highway between 18th and 19th Streets and showing the plan to re <br />centerline the existing pavement north of 19th Street and to follow <br />this centerline immediately south of 19th Street. The plan eliminates <br />parking on the west side of Old Dixie north of 19th Street and prevents <br />expensive right-of-way costs for two buildings immediately south of <br />19th Street by having parking on both sides, 10 feet wide, south of <br />Charlton Apartments. Commissioner Macdonald moved, seconded by <br />Commissioner McCullers and carried, that this plan, tentatively <br />approved by the State Road Department, be approved by the Board of <br />County Commissioners and further request that the City Council of <br />Vero Beach approve the suggested road plan. <br />MN . .9) PAGE 506 <br />
