FEB <br />1983 Sam f5P*;F 762 <br />Commissioner Lyons stated that the Veto Beach Library <br />a <br />does not have a medical plan, and Administrator Wright felt <br />there will be six full time employees. <br />Commissioner Wodtke noted that we have allowed Mosquito <br />Control to come under our group plan and he believed they <br />pay separately. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Wodtke, Commissioner Fletcher <br />voting in opposition and Commissioner Scurlock <br />being absent, the Board by a 3 to 1 vote author- <br />ized the Administrator to advise the libraries they <br />may participate in the County medical plan as long <br />as this is paid from their own budgets. <br />DISCUSSION OF FIND'S NEW PROGRAMS <br />Commissioner Lyons reviewed the FIND proposal, which <br />would include funding of two marine patrolmen for each of <br />the coastal counties and would also make it possible for <br />FIND to participate in channel erosion projects, such as <br />along Jungle Trail. He noted that he did not necessarily <br />agree with everything in the proposal, but he did feel that <br />FIND could be a big help to us, particularly in the matter <br />of river patrol. He informed the Board that both he and <br />Representative Patchett have been involved with fishermen <br />who want to control net fishing and have further protection <br />of the grass flats, the manatees, the fish, etc., and this <br />proposal by FIND would help with further protection of the <br />grass flats by having "NO WAKE" zones. Commissioner Lyons <br />pointed out that we do not have the taxing capability to add <br />a patrol ourselves, and he would like to ask that the <br />Commission indicate in a Resolution its interest in seeing <br />FIND change its direction to participate in marine patrols <br />and in erosion control. <br />54 <br />
