Fr <br />APR 6� 193 Brox <br />office as requested, contingent on the other <br />counties making a commitment; the funds to be <br />53 PAVE <br />taken from this budget year's contingency account. <br />REQUEST FOR EAST BRIDGEHEAD PROPERTY BY CITY OF VERO BEACH <br />The Board reviewed the following letter from the Mayor <br />of Vero Beach: <br />OFFICE OF THE <br />MAYOR <br />City of Vero Beach <br />A 0. BOX 1389 - 1053 - 20th PLACE <br />VERO BEACH, FLORIDA - 32960 <br />Telephone 567-5151 <br />Chairman Dick Bird <br />County Administration Building <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Dear Chairman Bird: <br />March 28, 1983 <br />` AR 1 83 <br />Ca-A <br />� <br />The City. Council has authorized me to make - a special <br />request of the. County Commission regarding the East Bridgehead <br />Property, which is a 100 feet square piece of land at the <br />terminus of the old bridge crossing just north of the Beach <br />Fire Station property and adjoining Jack's Marina. The City <br />would like for the County to quit claim this property to the <br />City for use by the City in developing MacWilliam Park. <br />The City=at present has no plans for development of the <br />property, but believes that the property should be used for <br />public recreational or park purposes. The City would agree to <br />treat residents of the County using this property without. <br />discrimination vis-a-vis residents of the City. ' <br />A brief history of the property is as follows: In 1916 a <br />special Bridge District was created to fund and build the <br />original bridge across the Indian River. This bridge was built <br />and was operated and paid for by the Bridge District until <br />1927, when the District was abolished by special act and its <br />powers and duties (and presumably property) transferred to the <br />Board of County Commissioners of newly created Indian River <br />County. <br />In approximately 1950, with the construction of the new <br />Merrill P. Barber Bridge, the County obtained permission from <br />the State DOT to use a portion of the eastern part of the <br />bridge as a fishing pier. The right to operate and maintain <br />this fishing pier was given by the County Commission to the <br />City of Vero Beach at the City's request shortly thereafter, <br />and the City subsequently operated the pier for an undetermined <br />number of years until the pier was no longer in existence. <br />
