MAR 2 1 198 <br />BOOK 67 F �E 80 <br />FEES AT SEBASTIAN_ INLET_ PARK <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 3/18/87: <br />TO: The Board of County Commissioners <br />DATE: March 18, 1987 <br />SUBJECT: Fees at Sebastian Inlet Park <br />_4V <br />FROM: Bruce Barketttl <br />Assistant County Attorney <br />I represented the County at the March 17 meeting of the <br />Governor and Cabinet. At that meeting a decision was to be <br />made on a proposal to administer entrance fees for the north <br />side of the Sebastian Inlet Park at the rate of $1.00 per <br />driver plus $:50 for each additional vehicle occupant. The <br />item was scheduled at 2:00 -p.m. at Senator Deratany's <br />request; however, when the Senator failed to appear, the <br />matter was deferred without discussion for two weeks. <br />The delay gives this Board the opportunity to adopt a <br />position of support,.opposition, or neutrality with respect <br />to entrance fees at the Park. On March 16, 1983 this Board <br />adopted a position in support of the City of Melbourne <br />opposing a plan to charge $.50 per person for entrance to <br />the north side of the Park. <br />The State is prohibited from charging an entrance fee for <br />the south side of the Park by a restriction in the 1970 deed <br />from the County to the State for the property on the south <br />side of the Inlet. <br />If the Board adopts a position today, it may authorize the <br />Chairman, the Administrator, or the County Attorney to <br />forward a letter stating the Board's position to the <br />Governor and to the DNR, thus avoiding the expense of <br />sending a representative to Tallahassee for the next meeting <br />of the Governor and Cabinet. <br />111 <br />
