FF - MAR 61995 , BOOK 60 WE 9Q:.� Commissioner Scurlock confirmed that the letter was received and will be made a part of the record, as follows: N Q p"' 4 February 27, 1935 Chairman Patrick B. Indian River County Commission 1846 25th Street Vero Beach, Florida 32960 Dear Mr. Lyons: RE: ASSESSMENT FOR PAVING OF 16TH STREET FROM KINGS HIGHWAY ERST TO PRESENT PAVING This is to offer a few facts on the Proposed Project as it concerns our ProPerty, Lot 9 of Silver Oaks Estate, which is on the East side of 51st Court, two blocks from the Proposed Paving. The ProPerty owners on 5ist Court (Silver Oaks Estate) Paid for construction and Pay for maintenance of our street. 16th Street, to which our street connects, is Paved, and has been comPletels Paved, east of our street; and is Paved west of our street, Past our front ProPerty line, Past our street and continues west 50 feet Past our street.

In fact, the use of this Proposed 16th Street Paving by us will be infinitesimal compared to the use of this road by PeoPle from all over the county; Particularly to the East and South. It is only because of the increased traffic to the Community Collece, the ProPosed construction at 16th Street and Kin(is Road and access to the new shoPPin6 center at Kings Road and Route 60, access not ,lust for us, but the county, that Pavine should be considered at this time. We cannot see how in any way this "benefits ProPerty owned by...." us above ProPerty to the East, and, in fact, thousands of other PeoPle in the county. We suGGest that our ProPerty is outside the area which the "....Protect sPecifically benefits...". Consideration of this Property'_ being deleted from assessment will be aPFreciated. Cordially, 1 James J. and Bertha B. h P 666 51st Court Vero Beach, Florida 32960 Mr. Sharp emphasized that 16th St. is the only street in the county that goes directly all the way from the ocean to Kings Highway, and although it does stop there, it can be extended even across the canal.
