<br />Sara Savage <br />Mayor of Fellsmere , 235 S. Hickory Street, Fellsmere, also believed <br />Charter was going too fast. She had a meeting with Chairman Wheeler and offered to table <br />Fellsmere’s annexation if the Chairman would stop the Charter process but the Chairman said no <br />they would have to take it away altogether. She believed the County needed to revisit the <br />Comprehensive Plan because it is over 20 years old. She felt the ILA was the way to go. <br /> <br />Chairman Wheeler responded to the Mayor’s remarks that he had refused to stop the <br />Charter process if Fellsmere tabled its annexation proposal. <br /> <br />th <br />Ed Nelson <br />, 8775 20 Street, requested that the Board publish a copy of the draft <br />Charter document in the Newspaper, so people would be better informed. <br /> <br />Bill Teston, <br /> 736 Iris Lane, questioned the authority of the Chairman in making <br />decisions with the Mayor of Fellsmere on what should be done for the County. He also questioned <br />the wisdom to proceed with this process without the due consideration of the voters. <br /> <br /> <br />Chairman Wheeler responded to the questions of Mr. Teston. He reiterated prior <br />comments that if the annexations were off the table he would be willing to freeze Charter. <br /> <br />John Higgs, <br /> 45 Wax Myrtle Way, believed that if Fellsmere takes annexation off <br />the table and the County put a hold on Charter, it would enable everyone to discuss the matter and <br />make the right decisions. <br /> <br />Jason Nunemaker <br />, City Manager, Fellsmere, did not think this was an appropriate <br />forum for negotiations, but wanted to reiterate the proposals on the table. Fellsmere was willing to <br />meet with the County to discuss the issues. <br /> <br />May 1, 2007 48 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
