THE FLORIDA SENATE <br />SENATOR TIMOTHY D. (TIM) DERATANY <br />16th District <br />District Office Address: <br />1300 Pinetree Drive <br />Indian Harbour Beach, FL 32937 <br />(305)777-0032 <br />December 13, 198 <br />Honorable Richard N. Bird <br />County Commissioner <br />Indian River County Administration Bldg <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, FL 32960 <br />Dear Commissioner: <br />D fiD 1;;c5 <br />„� <br />Pine- , COMMIT -T] <br />''P'fArriaunp� <br />ri <br />%mpl S 11 F s TiA1 <br />Enclosed is a copy of a bill I intend to introduce at the <br />delegation meeting to be held in Vero Beach on January 15, 1986, <br />and in Melbourne, on February 12, 1986, which relates to the <br />Sebastian Inlet Commission. <br />The bill amends section 4 of chapter 7976 by replacing the <br />provision for election of the commissioners, to one providing <br />for appointment by the Boards of County Commissioners from <br />Brevard and Indian River Counties. In addition, it provides <br />for budget approval by the County Commissions. <br />My reason for suggesting this change stems, of course, from <br />past criticisms of the Inlet Commission, as well as the <br />recent critical audit. <br />I believe the citizens of the taxing district will be better <br />served knowing that the budget decisions of the Commission will <br />have the benefit of the expertise available to them through <br />the two counties involved and the County Commissions will <br />make every effort to -appoint only those most suitable to serve. <br />After you have had an opportunity to read the bill, should you <br />have any suggestions or recommended changes I will appreciate <br />your discussing it with me prior to the delegation meeting. <br />Best wishes for a happy holiday. <br />Sincere , <br />Tim Deratany <br />Senator, District 16 <br />59 <br />W, <br />BOCK � <br />and Claims <br />
