P.O. BOX 1208 <br />VERO BEACH, FLORIDA 32960 <br />April 29, 1980 <br />The Board of County Commissioners <br />Indian River County Courthouse <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Gentlemen and Madam: <br />Phone: 562-2301 <br />I am asking Commissioner Pat Lyons to read this letter to <br />you at your next meeting. <br />Please accept my resignation from the Indian River County <br />Planning and Zoning Board. My reasons for resigning are <br />that I feel the County Commissioners do not appreciate <br />nor take seriously the recommendations of the Planning <br />Board and Staff. <br />The Planning Board is politically immune and able to make <br />recommendations from an objective point of view. It also <br />spends many hours working with the Planning Staff and at <br />Public hearings. It is not very rewarding after taking <br />the heat of the battle and losing friends to have your <br />decisions reversed on you. <br />The two decisions which you granted at your last meeting <br />regarding the Glenn property and Walker property violated <br />the agricultural preservation area which is plainly on <br />the master plan. <br />You did it against the recommendation of the Planning and <br />Zoning Board and the Planning Staff. In my opinion it <br />is bad zoning and irresponsible. <br />I feel that it is not good for Indian River County for me <br />to fight with the Commissioners and because of my feelings <br />and belief that is what would happen if I remain on the <br />board. <br />Sincerely yours, <br />Ralp W. Sexton <br />4 <br />ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER LYONS, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER <br />Loy, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED THE RESIGNATION OF RALPH SEXTON <br />FROM THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD WITH REGRET AND ADOPTED RESOLUTION <br />80-44 HONORING HIM FOR HIS LONG AND DEVOTED SERVICE TO THE COUNTY. <br />77 <br />Bova. 43' PAGE 4-R <br />
