REQUEST TO SPEAK FROM BRIAN HEADY REGARDING THE ECONOMY, <br />AND WHAT WE CAN DO FOR ECONOMIC RECOVERY FOR INDIAN RIVER <br />COUNTY <br />Brian Heady, Vero Beach, reminded the Board of his past request that the County adopt <br />a policy to buy local, thus protecting the residents of the County. He believes the County should <br />hire workers who legally live here, and thought it would be nice for us to highlight the assets of <br />our community, our products or our workers, and that should start at the County Commission <br />level. He asked the Board to reconsider Vice Chairman Flescher's proposal with an eye on <br />implementing a program that gets all County tax dollars to be spent locally, on local products, <br />and on workers with local companies. He urged the Board to look out for the people that they <br />represent. <br />June 16, 2009 9 <br />
