Vick Demattia, 29 Sailfish Road, supported Mr. Swift and believed the water capacity would triple if we could capture and impound the gray water then use it for outside irrigation and pools. th Bea Gardner, 4480 25 Lane, did not see where Indian River County’s growth management was going to get us in line to get an application and thought that it would be a punishment down the road. She voiced concern that the County did not have a representative sitting on the Water Management District Board and believed assigning someone should be the first step. th Jens Tripson, 2525 14 Street, was glad to hear concern for the environment. He reminded the Board that they needed to remember that reverse osmosis and desalination have the most detrimental impact on the environment; treating surface water was less toxic to the environment and it should factor into the long-range plans. Daivd Cox , 9495 Periwinkle Lane, expressed his concerns regarding the adding of three more skids and thought something needed to be done soon, due to growth projections. He also believed that the critical period from 2011 to 2025 needed to be addressed. nd David Gunter, , 5280 22 StreetChairman of the Board of Supervisors, for Indian River Water Conservation District, mentioned that when his organization found out about the application for the six wells his people notified Director Olson (and his staff) and recommended starting a monitoring program immediately. He mentioned that he was an existing consumptive use permit holder and he wanted to know how someone would mitigate the “take on quality”. He also wanted the Board to understand that getting a consumptive use permit was not simple, there are many issues that come into play and he hoped the Board would make the right decision.
