Flescher <br />District 2 <br />Tim Zorc <br />District 3 <br />Bob Solari <br />District 5 <br />At the May 13, 2014 Board of County Commissioners Meeting, a resident of the. West <br />Gifford area, Ms. Kathleen Jaskolski, requested that an air quality study be undertaken of <br />the current airborne contaminants in the West Gifford, Gifford community. Ms. Jaskolski's <br />concerns focused on potential contaminants from current industrial sources in or near the <br />area such as concrete batch and asphalt plants Ms. Jaskolski further requested that the <br />study were to also consider if another source of potential contaminants were added to the <br />area (e.g., additional concrete batch plant in the West Gifford area), what cumulative effect <br />the additional source would have on air quality. <br />By this letter, I am asking the State Health Department, if such a study is feasible under the <br />resources available to the Health Department and if so, what steps does the county need to <br />undertake to enable the study to take place? <br />Looking forward to working with you on this endeavor. <br />gards, <br />Peter O'Bryan, Chairm <br />Indian River County Board of County Commissioners <br />cc: Board of County Commissioners <br />County Administrator <br />County Attorney <br />Stan Boling <br />Kathleen Jaskolski <br />1801 27`" Street, Building A <br />Vero Beach, FL 32960 <br />(772) 226-1490 <br />
