Helene Caseltine, Economic Development Director, Indian River Chamber of Commerce, <br />asked if the solar improvements would apply only in the unincorporated areas of the County, and <br />learned from Commissioner O'Bryan that the County could make the P.A.C.E. District <br />Countywide, if desired. <br />A public speaker attested that the Tax Abatement Program is an enabling tool for <br />business owners. <br />A public speaker wondered how the Federal Government would handle the reduced <br />income tax revenues resulting from the 30% rebates. <br />7. CITY OF VERO BEA CH — KE VIN SA WNICK, MAYOR <br />Mayor Sawnick reported that the City of Vero Beach would be voting in March 2010 on <br />whether to go forward with a Tax Abatement Program, which if approved, would go to <br />referendum on the November 2010 General Election Ballot. He thanked the City of Sebastian <br />for initiating the Program, and said that if the City's referendum passes, Vero Beach will model <br />their Tax Abatement Ordinance after Sebastian's, so when a business comes to town, the <br />Municipalities would be working as a team, and not competing. He believed that the Tax <br />Abatement would be a valuable building block for any businesses considering locating within the <br />County, or for existing businesses who wish to expand, and also a way to promote interlocal <br />cooperation among the Municipalities and County. Mayor Sawnick recognized Mayor Susan <br />Adams of Fellsmere, and Mayor Richard Gilmore of Sebastian, who have been meeting <br />regularly with the City of Vero Beach, and said that the group would next be evaluating how <br />each Municipality can best promote its unique assets, and to that end, would also be working <br />with the Chambers of Commerce and the County. Concluding his remarks, Mayor Sawnick <br />expressed confidence in the positive results which the County will derive from both the interlocal <br />cooperative efforts and the Tax Abatement Program. <br />8 <br />February 18, 2010 <br />Economic/Goal Summit II <br />
