Discussion arose as to the legal standing of the <br />Audubon Society in regard to filing an appeal. <br />Attorney Brandenburg believed they have standing to <br />bring forth the procedural defects they perceive, and as to <br />the question of whether they have standing to discuss the <br />merits of the decision, he commented that the Commission has <br />the authority to lower standards for in-house administrative <br />appeals, and, in fact, the Commission did recently change <br />the standing requirements for people bringing appeals to <br />them from those with a legal interest to any other person <br />having any aggrieved interest therein. Attorney Brandenburg <br />noted that former County Attorney Collins expressed the <br />feeling that this would allow just about any taxpayer in the <br />county to present an appeal to the Commission. <br />Attorney Henderson believed the matter is moot, and. <br />felt it would be totally appropriate either for the Board to <br />deny the appeal or the Audubon Society to withdraw. If they <br />do not withdraw, however, he stated that Florida Land <br />Company has objections to present. <br />Attorney O'Haire, acting as legal counsel for the <br />Audubon Society on the issue of standing stated that they <br />will stand on their appeal letter to the Commission dated <br />January 27, 1982, and asked that it be made a part of the <br />record. <br />JAN 2 7 198 2, <br />39 <br />BOOT( 48 PM 687 <br />
