Director Davis advised that college student Tom Ruge from <br />Georgia Tech worked with staff over the summer preparing this <br />plan. There were many aspects of the plan, and it involved a lot <br />of work dealing with the environmental and historical considera- <br />tions, artifacts, etc. He emphasized that this is a management <br />plan, not a site plan nor a detailed construction plan, and the <br />main emphasis is an oceanfront recreation facility providing <br />beach access for residents of the county. <br />Commissioner Eggert expressed concern about any parking that <br />might require people to cross A -1-A. <br />Commissioner Bird believed that Director Davis and the <br />young man from Georgia Tech are to be commended on the plan. He <br />noted that we are trying to leave as much open space and natural <br />vegetation as we can and yet provide access to the beach and a <br />minimal amount of the facilities the public would expect. This <br />plan can be expanded in the -future if needed, and Commissioner <br />Bird felt it is a good blend between nature and making facilities <br />available to the public. <br />Commissioner Bowman hoped that if it is planned to allow RVs <br />and campsites, etc., that there will be a charge, and this was <br />confirmed. <br />Acting Administrator Collins also wished to compliment <br />Director Davis and informed the Board that the plan was completed <br />about 10 months ahead of the DNR schedule. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commis- <br />sioner Bird, the Board unanimously (4-0) approved <br />the Land Management Plan for North Beach Complex <br />and authorized that it be transmitted to the DNR. <br />COPY OF SAID PLAN IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR OF <br />PUBLIC WORKS. <br />37 <br />OCT 41988 <br />BOOK 74 PA riE 434 <br />
