OBJECTIVE 5 LIMITING PUBLIC EXPENDITURE IN THE COASTAL HIGH - HAZARD ZORE---- '—-------� --'— — By 1992, the county will eliminate public expenditure and subsidy in the Coastal High -Hazard Zone, with the exception of natural resource management. - NO COMMENT OBJECTIVE 6 REDUCTION OF HURRICANE EVACUATION TIMES TO REDUCE 13QBLTC—RTSK— By 1995, Indian River County will have reduced estimated evac- uation time for a category 3 storm event to 12 hours or less.

If it was Agricultural that went to 6 upa in an area that was designated 6 upa, that wouldn't count. It was further noted that the lowest designation on the Beach is 3, and on the west side of the river, it goes as high as 10. Commissioner Bird felt that it just a very positive state- ment that doesn't seem to give us any flexibility. He would prefer to say "will discourage" instead of "shall not approve." He believed there is a senior citizen's project going in back of Marvin's Gardens which is located on the east side of U.S.I., and that would be in the Hurricane Vulnerability Zone. It was noted that that has been rezoned to 8 upa. Director Keating stated that staff can substitute "will discourage" for "shall not approve" as suggested by Commissioner Bird, and this was agreed upon.
