1`i 1,989 <br />BOOK 75 w,[ 636 <br />RESOLUTION OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY TO 1989 LEGISLATIVE DELEGATION <br />The Board reviewed the proposed resolution prepared by the <br />County Attorney's Office, and Attorney Vitunac explained that this <br />lists the goals in which the Board has indicated their interest. <br />Commissioner Eggert requested that the wording be changed <br />from "the Board respectfully requests the Delegation to address at <br />the State level the concerns of Indian River County" to "the Board <br />respectfully urges the Delegation to address at the State level <br />the concerns of Indian River County." She was especially <br />concerned about the continued support of library grants, and would <br />like to have it read: "urge support of continued funding of <br />library grants and cultural grants". Commissioner Eggert was <br />concerned that just as our library system is growing larger, it <br />seems the State is cutting out all the good grants. <br />Commissioner Scurlock suggested that we put the major points <br />of concern at the beginning since any type of list is usually <br />prioritized, but Commissioner Bird did not feel we should <br />prioritize them because he didn't want the State to pass over some <br />of these things that may available in the next year just because <br />they believed it was not a high priority. <br />Commissioner Bowman felt that we should encourage them to set <br />up tax incentives or loans to businesses that will develop markets <br />for materials to be recycled. <br />Commissioner Scurlock personally felt a free market is a far <br />better place for those things to happen and did not see any need <br />for government to set up tax incentives. <br />Commissioner Bowman promised to remind Commissioner Scurlock <br />of those words in 5 years or so. <br />36 <br />
