1. ANONYMOUS PROPAGANDA LETTER CIRCULATING <br />THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY REGARDING THE INDIAN <br /> <br />RIVER COUNTY SHOOTING RANGE (LETTER ATTACHED) <br /> <br />Commissioner Wheeler addressed the contents of an anonymous letter, which was <br />circulated to some Concealed Weapons Permit holders in Indian River County, accusing him of <br />plotting with the Indian River Neighborhood Association (IRNA) to close the gun range. He <br />dismissed the claims as “absolutely, totally, and completely false”. The letter was placed on <br />overhead projection. <br />Executive Aide to the Board Kimberly Massung read the letter addressing “neighbor <br />and fellow gun owner” and initialed “C.W., Gun owners for Keeping America Free” (copy on file). <br /> <br />Commissioner Wheeler felt the letter was insulting to the intelligence of gun owners <br />and people who use the range. He believes in the right to bear arms and gun safety and saw this <br />letter as propaganda. He, however, admitted to the only thing correct in the letter. That is, he had <br />said they should look at putting the designation under Recreation, and that was basically to keep <br />the gun range, because State law says that after 5 years if it is not profitable, and if they wanted to <br />keep it going, it has to be in a department. <br /> <br />County Administrator Joseph Baird confirmed, explaining that it was the Auditors <br />who had expressed that if it did not make money they would have to move it out as an Enterprise <br />Fund as they felt it should fall in a taxing fund at that point. <br /> <br />Commissioner Davis sympathized with Commissioner Wheeler and thought they <br />should just move on. Everyone agreed. <br />C. COMMISSIONER SANDRA L. BOWDEN - NONE <br /> <br />July 21, 2006/special call <br />5 <br /> <br />
