for direction on how they wish for us to handle this matter. If <br />we pursue and develop information that results in the arrest of <br />this individual, would the Commission recommend prosecution? <br />Please respond as soon as possible in writing so that we may <br />pursue. <br />Sincerely, <br />T. "Tim" Dobeck, Sheriff <br />Indian River County - <br />Commissioner Bird did not remember the exact wording of the <br />Motion authorizing offer of a reward, and Administrative Aide Liz <br />Forlani provided that portion of the Minutes of April 16th, which <br />Commissioner Bird read as follows: <br />It REWARD FOR COUNTY QUILT <br />Commissioner Lyons stated that he would like to have permis- <br />sion for Administrator Wright to advertise a reward for informa- <br />tion leading to the return of the County Quilt. He advised that <br />he had received a note from Utilities Director Pinto offering to <br />donate $100 to the reward fund, and he asked what the Board felt <br />would be a reasonable reward. <br />Administrator Wright noted that we are dealing with a item <br />on which you cannot put a true value, and he felt it calls for a <br />significant reward, possibly $1,000. <br />Commissioner Bowman expressed the hope that the Sheriff <br />realizes this is a case of grand larceny. She personally <br />believed the quilt has gone to some private collector. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Com- <br />missioner Bowman, the Board unanimously authorized <br />the Administrator to offer a reward of up to $1,000 <br />for information leading to the return of the County <br />Quilt. <br />n <br />Commissioner Bird did not believe in that Motion the Board <br />granted immunity to anyone who committed the crime and stated he <br />would certainly encourage the Sheriff to continue to investigate <br />this crime as he would any other crime in the county. <br />33 <br />SEP 2 3 1986 BOOK <br />6.5 F, a- 833 <br />0 <br />
