Commissioner Lyons stated that he felt as if he has - <br />been trapped and he does not like it, but he believed he has <br />to be a realist and if he is to vote for this, he wished to <br />be sure the motion contains the thought that if there is a <br />continuing process, it will go to a referendum. He asked if <br />the Vero Beach Civic Association had any official statement <br />they wished to make. <br />A representative of the Civic Association stated that <br />they do not have a position on it and it would have to go to <br />their Board of Directors. <br />Discussion continued at length regarding the fact that <br />this first phase involves a local expenditure of approxi- <br />mately $650,000, which is a very different matter from the <br />long term project which would involve many millions. <br />Commissioner Wodtke brought up the need to determine an <br />erosion control line. He noted that sand moves from one <br />place to another, washing out in some places and building up <br />in others, and from the mean high water line, it becomes <br />private property. We need a definitive line to evaluate <br />this movement and he believed we will have better data <br />regarding this in the future. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously (4-0). <br />DISCUSSION RE OFFICIAL SONG FOR COUNTY <br />Michael Gray, county resident, came before the Board to <br />request that the song" Indian River Sunrise," which he <br />composed, be designated as the official song of Indian River <br />County. He noted that it has been played over local AM and <br />FM stations and has been very well received as evidenced by <br />letters from Pete Noel, Program Director of WGYL, and Jerry <br />Binkley, General Manager of WTTB, supporting his request. <br />Said letters are on file in the Office of the Clerk. <br />88 <br />JUN 6 Boa 57 FACE383 <br />
