This period from 1950 to the present lead the City to believe that the property was actually in City ownership. When last year a tenant of Jack's Marina called the City for assistance in a dispute concerning the Bridgehead Property, the City found to its surprise that the property was still owned by the County. As far as we can determine the City has never received any income from the property and does not now intend to rent it to anyone. As suggested by the County Attorney, Mr. Brandenburg, I am enclosing with this letter a survey and map of the Property to assist you in your consideration of our request. Please let me know if you need any other information or if you would like a representative from the City_ to appear at the County,Commission meeting to answer questions. Thank you for your kind assistance. sincerely yours, Dorothy Cain Mayor, City of Vero Beach Administrator Wright informed the Board that he had talked with City Manager Little about this property. He continued that this matter has been around for a long time, and it is his belief that there are matters involved that go beyond just signing the deed. He requested that the Board postpone any action at least until the next meeting to enable him to do some further research. Commissioner Scurlock stated that his personal feeling is that -'this is an area for negotiation. He believed there are some other factors which should be discussed, such as power pole relocation, and felt if the City is requesting something, they should at least have a representative at our meeting. Chairman Bird concurred in the belief that we have something valuable to trade. ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously tabled the above item until further information can be obtained. 79 BM 53 PA*k
