Vle are asking, you the Commissioners, to approve paving at county expense, a one quarter (4) mile section of road to Indian River County standards. This section of road is currentI.y used by the above mentioned property owners to gain access to their haws and property, and, is located along the Southern most portion of Tract 8 Section 23, Township 33S, Range 38E. Itis known as.Sth Street S/W or Rebel Road. In this folder, you will find appropriate maps to help you better visualize the location. During the past S years we have placed marl fill along the road and have tried to grade it (with limited success) to keep it in passable condition. Vk, have ourselves financed, and do miin- tain, over one and one half M) miles of paved private roadway with- in the Aerodron-e. Currently residing; at the Aerodrome are eighteen families who rely upon this roadway daily to compute to their businesses and jobs within Indian River County. We all appreciate a well developed subdivi- sion with the recreational area, large building; lots and open spaces as beinga wonderful place to live and raise our families while at the scone tim , not detracting from the aesthetic values of Indian River County in general. Indian River County property tax revenue from the Aerodrome property owners and residents exceeds eleven thousand (11,000) dollars annually at thi-s time. lie intend to remain, for the most part, as self- supporting as a subdivision can be. The amount of travel on this portion of roadway demands that it be constructed to the requirements and standards of the Indian River County Road and Bridge Department.
