MOTION WAS AMENDED by Commissioner Flescher, <br />Seconded by Commissioner Davis to present the issue to <br />the Conservation Lands Advisory Committee (CLAC) for <br />review and input and that the matter be brought back to the <br />Board. <br />Dr. Weiss supported Mr. Paladin's recommendations. <br />Ilka Daniel, Director of Outreach Services, Humane Society, Vero Beach, <br />addressed the matter of "incidental take" permits, and its impact on the tortoises. She reported that <br />"take permits" have been banned, and urged the Board to proceed with taking measures. <br />Ralph Monticello, Land Protection Manager at Indian River Land Trust, said <br />Indian River Land Trust sponsored a Study this last year on Gopher Tortoises at the North <br />Sebastian Conservation area and it showed the capacity of those conservation areas. He felt if staff <br />uses this as a model, it might be helpful and could save the County staff some time. <br />Nancy Offutt, Treasure Coast Builders Association, confirmed that the "taking <br />permits" have been banned and entombment is no longer allowed. They would be happy to work <br />with anyone else in the County for relocation or addressing the issue in a comprehensive manner. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and by a <br />unanimous vote, the Board approved: (1) that <br />Commissioner O'Bryan would work with Mr. Paladin and <br />the Conservation Lands Advisory Committee on the <br />Gopher Tortoise issues; and (2) for staff to continue to work <br />with them in a timely manner; and that the matter be <br />brought back to the Board thereafter. <br />October 2, 2007 21 <br />
