Lyons, Chairman <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />Indian River County Courthouse <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Dear Mr. Lyons: <br />I recently saw an advertisement in the Vero Beach Press <br />Journal which referred to the fact that a partner of the County <br />Attorney purchased property East of the proposed extension to <br />Indian River Boulevard back in. 1980. There is an inference of <br />wrongdoing that is contrary to everything I know about this <br />transaction. <br />I represented the Employees' Profit Sharing and Retire- <br />ment Trust of Thermo Electric Corp. which owned the property at <br />the time. <br />Accordingly, I have advised the County Attorney that I <br />would be available on Wednesday, September 30, to appear before <br />the Commissioners to provide any information I may have about <br />this matter. <br />V-e4truly y <br />v ti.sr vvw� � <br />Aw Jerome D.
