• <br />PELICAN ISLAND AUDUBON SOCIETY <br />P. 0. Box 1833 <br />VERO BEACH, FLORIDA 32960 <br />August 19, 1975 <br />Miss ALnam Lee Loy, Chairman <br />and Members of the Indian River County Commission <br />Ret River Shores Estates - Unit 5 <br />IRC-75-S/D-6 <br />Dear Commissionerst <br />The Indian River and the adjacent wetlands <br />are of great economic significance to this County and to the <br />sea around W. A large pottion tithe fish in the ocean spend <br />at least a part of their lives in estuaries such as the <br />Indian River and depend on tt for food. The way we treat the <br />shore of the River and the adjacent wetlands will determine <br />the availability of this important food source in the years <br />ahead. Both bile Federal and State governments have seen fit <br />to prohibit use of this land fro at least below the mean high <br />tide line. Much of this proposed subdivision appears to lie . <br />below the elevation of mean high tide and should not be used. <br />WE feel that Commission approval of this subdivision would <br />be construed as an argument in favor of the subdivider when <br />he appears before the environmental agencies seeking permits <br />to fill this land. In view of the clearly established practices <br />in these matters we would hope that our Commission would not <br />officially promote retrogression. As a consequence we ask that <br />you do not approve the Subdipision. <br />Tours very truly, <br />AUG 201975 <br />Howard Moore, Chairman, Conservation Committee <br />"This is 100% recycled paper" <br />6001 <br />
