APR 17 1985 Boa 60 PvF 617 <br />simultaneously with the permitting of finger piers and the <br />shoreline stabilization, and there were no objections. However, <br />The Land Company ran into problems with the permitting because <br />piers are a secondary use and they have no primary use; it got <br />even more complex with the changing of hands of the corporation. <br />Florida Land, therefore, is requesting the Board not call down <br />the Letter of Credit and grant them an extension. <br />The County Attorney noted that we.have the option of calling <br />down the Letter of Credit with the County then handling the <br />permitting and the project or allowing them an extension so they <br />can complete the project.

He noted however, that the County has an interest in <br />the stabilization, not the finger piers, and it was agreed the <br />private and public interests are two different issues; what we <br />are interested in is the stabilization. <br />Dale Crosby of FLorida Land Co., felt there is a provision <br />in the agreement that says both parties may agree to extend the <br />time limitations. He agreed that they have been at fault in not <br />communicating with the Board in a timely fashion,and what he has <br />23 <br />M <br />
