SEP 15 1982 5 w, <br />INDIAN RIVER .COMMUNITY COLLEGE <br />3209 Virginia Avenue Fort Pierce, Florida 33454 <br />ASSISTANT DEAN OF INSTRUCTION August 25, 1982 <br />Mr. William Wodtke <br />County Commission <br />County Administration Building <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Fla. 32960 <br />Dear Mr. Wodtke: <br />MUELLER CENTER <br />P.O. BOX 2926 <br />VERO BEACH, FL 32960 <br />Pursuant to our conversation on the evening of August 24th <br />regarding the lighting problem at the corner of 58th Avenue <br />( King's Highway) and Lundburg Road, I would appreciate your <br />once more presenting our request for a'Aight to your fellow <br />commissioners. Please impress upon them the number of our cit <br />zens ( approximately 800) who attend evening classes and es- <br />pecially the number of women who drive alone to and from <br />classes. We have one exchange of classes after dark at 8 P.M. <br />this involves about 600 students driving in or out and all <br />of the problems related to such coming and going. That parti- <br />cular corner is exceedingly dark and the grading of Lundburg <br />Road and the bridge inhibit a driver's ability to see appro Ch- <br />ing traffic on King's Highway. <br />The County Commissioners would be rendering a great ser <br />,vice to the health and welfare of approxima.tly 1000 student <br />and their families if they would install :this',badly •needed <br />light at the corner of Lundburg Road and King's Highway. <br />I look forward to hearing from you at an early date <br />with a positive response. <br />Sincerely, <br />f <br />John . Avril <br />Assistant Dean of Inst r tion <br />Mueller Center <br />Commissioner Wodtke noted that the Board earlier <br />decided this was not in our realm, and he suggested that the <br />college contact Florida Power & Light. Mr. Avril stated he <br />would like to make a request directly on behalf of the <br />college before pursuing this. Commissioner Wodtke felt if <br />the Commission's reaction remains the same, the College will <br />pursue this matter. He personally believed the light is <br />needed. <br />M <br />
