Chairman Davis had been notified about a movement going forward at the State <br />level to name a portion of SR 60 after the late State Representative, Stan Mayfield, who had <br />advanced the SR 60 Road Project. He asked for Board support of the Resolution of Support. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman Flescher, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Solari, to approve sending <br />the Resolution of Support to the State Legislature, that <br />State Route 60 from I-95 west to the Florida Turnpike <br />should be named "The Stan Mayfield Memorial <br />Highway." <br />Under discussion, Commissioner Wheeler remarked that the County has <br />consistently taken the position to not name roads after people, but in this case, it would be a <br />State, and not a County, action. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the <br />Motion carried unanimously. The Board approved <br />sending the Resolution of Support to the State Legislature, <br />that State Route 60 from I-95 west to the Florida Turnpike <br />should be named "The Stan Mayfield Memorial <br />Highway", as recommended in the memorandum of <br />November 13, 2008. <br />Clerk's Note: The Resolution of Support is a third party Resolution, to be <br />executed jointly with Indian River County, the Indian River County and Sebastian Chambers of <br />Commerce, the Tax Collector, the Republican Party of Indian River County, Indian River <br />Medical Center, the Economic Development Division of the Chamber of Commerce, and Indian <br />River State College. <br />46 <br />November 18, 2008 <br />
