SEP 12 1984 <br />BOOK PAGE <br />Scurlock was concerned that we would be committed for 30 <br />years and also as to the result if we had a major storm that <br />blew away the beaches. What he would like to do is to show <br />a chart prepared by George Gross setting out the several <br />steps that must be taken before this actually becomes a <br />project. He thought that it was unfair to the public to <br />have a straw ballot before they even had an opportunity to <br />review the figures, and, therefore, he is asking that the <br />Commission fulfill their obligation as stated previously and <br />endorse this project. <br />Chairman Scurlock repeated that Congressman Nelson was <br />putting pressure on both the City Council and the County <br />Board of Commissioners. <br />Councilman Parris was under the impression that the <br />Commission had endorsed this program. <br />_. Chairman Scurlock explained again that he has been told <br />for 7 years, before making another decision, that this was <br />needed to keep it "in the hopper". <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lyons, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, that the Board <br />authorize a straw ballot for the November <br />election, that the Board indicate the split that <br />we have set up for the financing, and that <br />approximate figures for the beach <br />renourishment program be given and that <br />they ask the public whether or not they approve of <br />the arrangement; Secondly, that the Board <br />authorize a full page newspaper advertisement with <br />appropriate white space provided for the public <br />to comment on whether or not they support the <br />project. <br />49 <br />� � r <br />
