The County Administrator presented a letter from the residents of the area of 45th Avenue, requesting that a stop sign on 45th Avenue north of SR #60 be removed. After some discussion, Commissioner Macdonald suggested that this request be given to the Indian River Safety Council. for study before any action be taken. Motion was made by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded by Commissioner McCullers and unanimously carried that the Board of. County Commissioners of Indian River County, Florida advise the Comptroller of the State of Florida that Chapter 67-117, Laws of Florida, amending Section 193.201 F.S appears to prohibit the County from zoning any lands as agricultural unless a return is filed by the owner of the land or by his agent stating that said lands on January 1 of that year were used primarily for agricultural purposes; therefore, it seems possible that the County, after April 1, may find itself in the awkward position of granting agricultural zoning on lands on which returns have been made, and being unable to do so on adjoining lands of exactly the same status, except that no return had been made. It is the request of this Board that the Comptroller furnish the County. with forms for proper returns on the provisions of this Act, together with instructions for legal procedures, particularly with regard to formal advertisements necessary to acquaint property owners with this drastic change in the law.
