Te6phons: (561) 567.8000 <br />July 9, 1999 <br />BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />1840 25th Street, Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Ms. Evelyn Smart <br />Office of the Commander <br />7`4 Coast Guard District <br />909 S.E. First Avenue, Room 406 <br />Miami, FL 33131.3050 <br />Re: Public Notice 10.99, Bridge Permits <br />Lost Tree Village Corporation <br />Dear Ms. Smart: <br />On July 6, 1999, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners voted <br />unanimously to request that the United States Coast Guard deny the application by Lost <br />Tree Village Corporation to construct three bridges and numerous docks in an area of the <br />Indian River used heavily by boat traffic, skiers, and manatees. <br />Historically these channels have been considered as public waterways by the federal <br />government and transferred to the State of Florida as such. This designation was <br />reaffirmed with the Legislative Act of 1917. <br />Application #10.99 proposed by the Lost Tree Village Corporation will restrict, prohibit, <br />and deny the public use of these channels and will be in direct conflict with the rights of the <br />general public. <br />If my office can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />By 7 <br />enneth R. Macht, Chairman <br />KRM/Vk <br />
