N O V 3 1982 51 <br />Ester Rymer, Building Director of the City of Vero <br />Beach, approached the Board and discussed the various <br />occupations of the people on the Building Board. She added <br />that she would like to see that Board expanded to a 7 member <br />board, as it was difficult to get a quorum at times. <br />Commissioner Lyons commented that he would like the <br />Board to consider having a member of the swimming pool <br />industry on the Building Board. <br />The Chairman asked if there was anyone present who <br />wished to be heard. There were none. <br />ON MOTION by Commission Lyons, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously <br />agreed to close the public hearing. <br />Commissioner Fletcher inquired about the energy <br />efficiency code regarding residences. He asked if every <br />room in the house had to be heated and cooled to a certain <br />temperature. <br />Mrs. Rymer explained that this was mentioned in the <br />Standard Housing Code, and the house had to be wired in <br />order to provide for heating in every room. She pointed out <br />it did not mean you had to use heat in all the rooms, but it <br />was much easier to do this during construction than to do it <br />later. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Bird, that the Board adopt <br />Ordinance 82-26 concerning the Standard Building <br />Code, 1982 Edition, adopting various Codes, and <br />authorize the signature of the Chairman. <br />Brief discussion ensued. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. It was <br />voted on and carried with a vote of 4 to 1, <br />with Commissioner Fletcher voting in opposition. <br />
