from the General Fund. He was not sure this should have <br />come before the Board, except for the budget transfer. <br />Commissioner Scurlock stressed that the money must be <br />found to replace the daybeacon, preferably from the Boating <br />Improvement Fund, and this requires Board action. <br />Commissioner Wodtke asked if we can go ahead and <br />replace the daybeacon, subject to approval, because it is an <br />emergency situation out there without a signaal. <br />Director Davis hoped we could replace it soon as they <br />are getting ready to install the daybeacons at the Oslo <br />ramp. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, that the <br />Board authorize the replacement <br />of the Vero Isles Daybeacon at a cost not <br />to exceed $700, with the funds to come from <br />the Florida Boating Improvement Trust Fund. <br />Commissioner Lyons asked if this should have been bid <br />and Director Davis said only one contractor ever bids on <br />this type of thing and he bids not above $1,000, and <br />Administrator Wright said it was not required to be bid. <br />Director Davis believed that the agreement with the <br />Florida Boating Improvement Trust Fund is such that these <br />daybeacons are to be maintained by the County. <br />Administrator Wright was concerned that we may be <br />prohibited from using that money for what they may classify <br />as a maintenance or replacement item, and asked that they be <br />given the flexibility to fund it from any normal channel, <br />should we be denied the ease of the Boating Improvement <br />Funds. <br />Debate occurred regarding the location of the beacon <br />and whether the channel isn't used by the general public. <br />37 <br />MAY 18 1983 a K 3 P c 07 <br />
