1) The Committee suggested that rather than giving a tree to <br />every newborn child such as the City of Vero Beach does, the <br />County should invite that particular 5th grade class to plant a <br />tree in one of our parks on Arbor Day. <br />Commissioner Eggert wanted to know more about Vero Beach's <br />tree planting program, because she felt it would be nice for us <br />to follow through and have the County give each newborn child a <br />gift certificate for a small tree that can be planted in their <br />own yards. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt we could always allocate a <br />certain amount of money each year for that purpose and give out <br />certificates for seedlings. <br />Administrator Chandler stated that he would look into that, <br />and Chairman Bird advised that he would write a letter to the 5th <br />grade class inviting them to plant some seedlings in one of our <br />parks in honor of Arbor Day, which is observed in the month of <br />January in Florida. <br />Commissioner Bowman advised that the Audubon Society is <br />interested in planting approximately 40 live oaks at the <br />Fairgrounds and would like to work with someone on the <br />landscaping plan. <br />2) The Committee feels that this 40 -acre piece of property does <br />have some value to be added to the Fairgrounds and is suggesting <br />that the Board direct staff to look into the financing feasi- <br />bility and bring back a recommendation on how the property could <br />be financed and purchased if it were deemed to be advisable for <br />the County. (See Motion under Item #6) <br />3) Chairman Bird advised that the Committee will review the <br />master plan for the park and come back to the Commission with <br />some thoughts on how the park should be maintained in the future <br />after the Forestry Division gives up their management duties. <br />There have been a number of improvements made under that lease <br />and we will have to decide if we want to continue to maintain <br />those improvements and/or make other improvements. The Committee <br />will come back to the Board with a recommendation, but we have <br />until June, 1992 to work something out with the Forestry <br />Division. <br />8 <br />20 <br />R L �9�1 <br />
