(PIAS Statement on R2zoning of South Beach area) -4- <br />In summary, we make two recommendation for your consideration: <br />1. We urge you to consider the desires and feelings of the <br />majority of the residents and landowners now residing in Indian <br />River County. If this means postponement of your rezoning <br />decision until after the master plan has been discussed and <br />accepted, then that is the step you should take. <br />2. If you feel you can reasonably disregard these feelings <br />for what you may justifiably consider a wiser course of action <br />through immediate rezoning, then we strongly urge you to first <br />seek the answers to the questions of economic, environmental, <br />and social ,impact of these proposed projects, before we are <br />locked into them. <br />most of us here today who are participating in these <br />deliberations have only a brief time left on this earth, yet, <br />the decisions made today will affect generations yet to come. <br />We urge restraint. The land will not melt away or blow away <br />today or tomorrow. Let us obtain all the facts we can, then <br />set our goals, and then, only lastly, go about the necessary <br />rezoning to meet these goals, if that is what we decide to <br />do. <br />GreggsW.
