EMERGENCY ADDITION <br />ITEM 14.A.1 <br />SEPTEMBER 16, 2014 <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners <br />DATE: September 12, 2014 <br />SUBJECT: Indian River County Endorsement to Designate FSBPA's Private <br />Citizen Award in Mr. Ralph Sexton's honor. <br />FROM: Peter D. O'Bryan, Commissioner <br />District 4 <br />Mr. Ralph Sexton has made a significant contribution to the cause of beach <br />preservation in Florida. His efforts have been recognized throughout the State <br />and by the Florida Shore and Beach Preservation Association (FSBPA). Mr. <br />Sexton was presented FSBPA's Private Citizen Lifetime Achievement Award in <br />2011. This very prestigious award is only given to a Floridian who has made a <br />significant contribution to the cause of beach preservation in Florida. Mr. Sexton <br />was specifically recognized for his passion and devotion to Indian River County's <br />beach preservation program. <br />It has come to our attention that FSBPA is considering renaming their Private <br />Citizen Award in Mr. Sexton's honor. With the upcoming FSBPA Board of <br />Director meeting scheduled for September 24, 2014, I feel it is appropriate for the <br />County to provide a formal letter to the FSBPA Board of Directors supporting the <br />renaming of the award in honor of Mr. Ralph Sexton. <br />Attachment: E-mail from Ms. Debbie Flack, President of the FSBPA <br />
