Pat Lyons, Chmn. DATE: 2-13-81 FILE: <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />SUBJECT: Lots 1 & 2, Block 96, <br />Fellsmere <br />FROM: Neil A. Nelson REFERENCES: <br />County Administrator <br />In response to Jim's letter to you dated February 10, 1981 <br />concerning the subject lots, I submit the following items of <br />information and recommendations: <br />These lots have been before the Board on two previous <br />occasions. The first time, the County had advertised these lots <br />forsale and the then Superintendent of Indian River Schools, Bill <br />McClure, forwarded a letter to the Board dated September 2, 1977, <br />reminding the Commission of a commitment that was made to the <br />School Board. This is the letter that Jim Burns refers to in his <br />letter. <br />The second time this issue was before the Board, Jim Burns <br />requested that the County give the School Board the lots in order <br />that they would be able to trade with the City of Fellsmere for a <br />more desirable school site area. Tommy Thomas recommended to the <br />Board not to give up the lots because they were valuable. <br />Discussion ensued and the final action that was decided was for <br />Commissioner Siebert to contact Jim Burns concerning this issue. <br />We have checked with Jim and Bunny did not contact him concerning <br />this issue. <br />The City of Fellsmere would lose their recreation area in the <br />Washington Square site if they gave the site to the School Board. <br />Fellsmere would not mind giving the Washington Square site to the <br />School Board; however, would need to relocate their recreation <br />area on Lots 1 & 2, Block 96. Joe Suit has offered to make this <br />offer in writing, upon receipt of these lots. They would guarantee <br />that a recreation area would be built on these lots. <br />I would recommend that the County give the lots to the School <br />Board and approve the exchange with the City of Fellsmere. A <br />suggested agenda memo is enclosed. <br />NAN/ep <br />Neil Nelson, Coun�ydmini�strator <br />75 <br />
