_I <br />SEP 101980 max 44 PAGE 543 <br />RECORD WHICH SHOWS US WHAT THE HOSPITAL IS USING; AND BASED ON <br />THEIR ENGINEERING, THEY NOW ARE ABLE TO SAY WHAT THEY NEED. SHE <br />CONTINUED THAT WE SEEM TO BE FORGETTING THAT VERO BEACH NEEDS MORE <br />SEWER CUSTOMERS; THAT WE ARE WORKING ON THE 201 PLAN; AND THAT <br />ANOTHER MUNICIPALITY NEEDS MORE SEWAGE DISPOSAL. <br />MR. GREGG STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING IN THE FILES INDICA- <br />TING THAT THE COUNTY EVER HAS QUESTIONED THE ALLOCATION. <br />COMMISSIONER LOY FELT THERE IS HARDLY A TIME SINCE THIS <br />ALLOCATION WAS MADE THAT WE HAVE NOT QUESTIONED IT; THAT IS WHY WE <br />ASKED THE HOSPITAL TO LOOK AT IT. SHE ALSO FELT THAT TO ASK THE <br />HOSPITAL TO MAKE A COMMITMENT THAT THEY WILL NEVER ASK FOR MORE IS <br />UNREASONABLE. SHE POINTED OUT THAT IN TEN OR TWENTY YEARS, THERE <br />WILL BE ANOTHER PLANT IN THE COUNTY AND FELT WE SHOULD CONCENTRATE <br />ON GETTING INDIAN RIVER SHORES UNDER WAY. <br />MR. GREGG REITERATED THAT HE HAS SAID IF THE COUNTY COM- <br />MISSION WILL GIVE 440,000 GALLONS TO INDIAN RIVER SHORES, HE WOULD <br />RECOMMEND SERVICE. HE STRESSED THAT THE COUNTY DECLINED TO TAKE <br />THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA ALTHOUGH THEY HAD THE WATER CAPACITY, AND <br />INSTEAD GAVE IT TO THE CITY ON A PERMANENT BASIS. HE STATED THAT <br />HIS PROBLEM IS NOT THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE, BUT THE WAY THE COUNTY <br />IS,GETTING THERE; HE BELIEVED THE COUNTY IS OVERTURNING AN ACCEPTED <br />FACT AND HE WOULD LOVE TO SEE ANYTHING THAT WILL SHOW THE COUNTY <br />NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS A PERMANENT 500,000. <br />COMMISSIONER WODTKE STATED THAT HE WAS CONFUSED AND FELT <br />THAT COUNCILMAN GREGG IS SAYING WE WOULD BE BETTER OFF NOT ADOPTING <br />THE PROPOSED RESOLUTION AND LET THE CITY ADDRESS WHAT THE ULTIMATE <br />NEEDS OF THE HOSPITAL ARE. <br />! MR. GREGG STATED THAT THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT MATTERS, AND <br />ONE IS WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO CONTROL THE HOSPITAL ALLOCATION. THE <br />CITY OBVIOUSLY FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS HAS BEEN UNDER A DIFFERENT <br />VIEW THAN THE COUNTY COMMISSION, AND THAT TO HIM IS THE MOST IMPORTANT <br />DECISION. MR. GREGG THEN WOULD HOPE THAT THE COUNTY WOULD GO AHEAD <br />AND ALLOCATE 440,000 GALLONS OF WASTE WATER TO INDIAN RIVER SHORES. <br />107 <br />
