INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMITTEE MEETING <br />OCTOBER 8, 1981 <br />1. David Rever made a report on Beach acquisition funding that may <br />be available through Governor'Graham's office. It was suggested <br />to him by Representative Patchett that we should proceed to <br />prepare an inventory of oceanfront properties that might be <br />suitable for acquisition for a public nark. It was decided that <br />David Rever and Walter Young work together to identify parcels <br />within the City and County that might be suitable for the above <br />purpose. <br />2. A request from the Association for Retarded Citizens was <br />presented by Lenora Quimby. After considerable discussion <br />it was voted on by the Committee, and approved 4-1 (Mayor Goff <br />voting in opposition) to recommend that the County Commission <br />budget $4,000 to assist in funding the Association's Summer <br />program for the Summer, 1981. <br />3. Discussion was held regarding Tracking Station Park area and <br />the fact was brought out that the FIT parcel is being badly <br />misused by the public since it affords most direct access from <br />the existing parking area to t -he beach. This misuse includes <br />unwanted crossovers of the dune area by pedestrians and vehicles, <br />misuse and vandalism of existing buildings on site, which includes <br />trash, broken glass, etc. Motion was made and passed unanimously <br />to request the County Commission to formally contact FIT and <br />request that they properly fence and secure their property in <br />order to discontinue this status as an attractive nuisance. <br />4. Jim Davis made a report and presentation on Tracking Station <br />Park design and grant application. The design and request for <br />funds was approved unanimously by the Committee. <br />5. Discussion was held regarding need of a standardized Ordinance <br />or Regulations governing use and permitted conduct in the Park <br />locations throughout Indian River County. Al MacAdam'was <br />appointed Chairman of sub -committee to continue research into <br />this area, assisted by Mayor Goff, David Rever, and Walter Young. <br />An existing Brevard County Ordinance will also be used for <br />reference. <br />Dick Bird, Chairman <br />Indian River County <br />Parks and Recreation Committee <br />DB:aw <br />Boa 48 FAGS 89 <br />Al <br />IN 0 V 4 1981 90 <br />
