� � D <br />Attorney Vitunac pointed out Objective 6 appears to confer a <br />benefit upon the general public, and it is not site specific. <br />Mr. Myers contended that if a landowner has to go out, and in <br />order to mitigate, has to buy another parcel of land of equal <br />environmental value, that is an unreasonable regulation because <br />where a man started out with a parcel of possibly 100 acres, then <br />he has to go out and repurchase 250 of it in order to develop it. <br />He felt that proves the unconstitutional nature of the <br />regulation. Mr. Myers noted that his remarks are summarized in <br />his letter, which is as follows: <br />svd KIMBALL/LLOYD & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />P <br />ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, PLANNERS AND SURVEYORS <br />e PHONE - (407) 562-4112 - FAX - (407) 778-8836 <br />February 13, 1990 <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />Indian River County <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />RE: Comprehensive Plan Scheduled for Adoption on February 13, 1990 <br />Dear Ccamuissioners: <br />This letter is our corporation's and Lost Tree Village Corporation's <br />written objections to the Comprehensive Plan scheduled for adoption on <br />February 13, 1990. Our firm and Lost Tree Village Corporation are <br />persons who own an equitable.or legal interest in property located in, or <br />who reside in, or who own or operate a business within the boundaries of <br />Indian River County. <br />The written objection raised is to Policy 6.12 (and any similarly stated <br />policies) which overregulates and/or takes 25 percent (or more) of the <br />private property of an equitable or legal landowner. This objection is <br />based upon the guarantees of both the United States Constitution and the <br />Constitution of Florida that private property cannot be taken, nor <br />unreasonably regulated, without just compensation - <br />The proper method for government to set aside native communities is to <br />acquire such lands by negotiation or condemnation. Thus the cost of <br />preservation is shared by all citizens, in lieu of just those who <br />presently own land containing native plant comr&mities. <br />Very truly yours, <br />By, , -0. fl�dA <br />G. William Myers, Jr., P.E. <br />• Vice President and <br />Chief Operating Officer <br />53 <br />800K. 19 F.aGt. <br />
