<br /> <br />rd <br />Freddie L. Woolfork <br /> , 4875 43 Avenue, expressed his confidence in the Board’s ability <br />to eliminate overcrowding and ensure that our community is well thought out and well planned. <br />He noted that many of our kids are getting an education and going elsewhere because of the lack <br />of jobs to come home to. He was in favor of an ad hoc committee to consider the different <br />alternatives. <br /> <br />David Terry <br /> , 1229 George Street, Sebastian, stated he brought his family here and <br />started his own business because his business management degree was worthless here and he did <br />not want to work in a packing house. If the Board halts growth now and the economy drops, he <br />will not be able to stay here. He was opposed to any restrictive measures on growth. <br /> <br />th <br />Nigel G. Mann <br /> , 1224 SW 38 Avenue, has lived here for 15 years and is very concerned <br />about the lack of jobs. He commutes to Palm Beach because there are no jobs here to utilize his <br />electrical engineering degree. Piper is an anemic company, Publix and the hospital, Carrabba’s, <br />and K-Mart supply most of the jobs. The focus should be on creating well-paying, high-income <br />jobs. He has 2 teenage daughters who will not work in the medical or service industries so there <br />is no future for them in Indian River County. <br /> <br />th <br />Ronald Spicer <br /> , 5230 94 Lane, Sebastian, felt that it would do no good to enact new <br />requirements when exceptions are always being allowed. <br /> <br /> Chairman Ginn asked if there were anyone who did not sign a card who now wished to <br />sign up to speak. There being no response, she thanked everyone for their thoughtful remarks <br />and stated that the Board has listened and will take all the remarks into consideration. <br /> <br /> NO ACTION REQUIRED OR TAKEN. <br /> <br />MARCH 8, 2004 <br />11 <br /> <br />
