e CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED IF THEY DID NOT WANT TO GO INTO OKEECHOBEE COUNTY, WHICH APPEARED TO BE THE SHORTEST DISTANCE. HE ALSO FELT THE ALIGNMENT COULD BE STRAIGHTENED OUT TO ELIMINATE THE PROBLEM WITH THE ENTIRE CITRUS AREA. MR. FAIR COMMENTED THEY COULD ADJUST THE CENTER LINE TO HAVE LESS OF AN EFFECT ON THE CITRUS AREA,AND IF THE BOARD WOULD PREFER TO GIVE THEM A LITTLE LATITUDE IN THAT REGARD, THEY.WOULD ACCEPT THAT AS A CONDITION OF THE BOARDS APPROVAL. HE REITERATED THAT NOTHING WOULD PREVENT THE BOARD FROM ASKING THEM TO TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THAT AREA, AND THEY WOULD ADJUST IT TO MINIMIZE THE AFFECT ON THE CITRUS AREA. THE CHAIRMAN ASKED IF THERE WAS ANYONE ELSE WHO WISHED TO SPEAK. THERE WERE NONE. ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER SIEBERT, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER DEESON, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY AGREED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
