Commissioner Scurlock noted that the City ran into <br />problems at Memorial Island Park where the State rules got <br />so strict, they couldn't even sell a tennis ball, and he did <br />not want to look into the possibility of taking 5 million <br />dollars and conveying it to the state and having them <br />telling us what we may or may not do with this land. <br />Administrator Wright noted that we are looking at two <br />parcels which present very different possibilities. He <br />asked that the Board members keep an open mind and pursue <br />this as far as possible. <br />Chairman Bird stated that we definitely will have these <br />answers before we make any commitment. He emphasized that <br />the sub -committee is not limited to working within the <br />parameters of the Save Our Coast Program; they will be <br />looking at everything from walkways to larger tracts and <br />reviewing every undeveloped grain of sand from Sebastian <br />Inlet to the South County line. <br />Commissioner Scurlock wished to know whether it is the <br />intent to issue the bonds immediately and invest the funds <br />or sit back until we have everything identified and <br />priorities set. <br />Administrator Wright recommended we take this to the <br />Finance Advisory Committee. He noted that even if we <br />participate in the Save Our Coast Program, there still will <br />be money left over. He felt we should get this money <br />working for us as soon as possible. <br />Community'Services Director Thomas concurred that it is <br />important to move as quickly as possible to get this money <br />working for us. <br />REQUEST FROM CITY FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR MAC WILLIAM <br />PARK BOAT DOCKS <br />The Board reviewed staff recommendation as follows: <br />JAN 5.1993 777 <br />P� E 5S <br />
