r DEC A 4 1993 <br />ti <br />BOOK 91 PACE 306 <br />Sea turtle protection lighting regulations (section 98 and 9C): <br />proposed revisions to Chapter 932 would extend the official sea <br />turtle nesting season so that it starts annually on March lot <br />(instead of May 1st) as it applies to coastal lighting regulations. <br />The State DEP Division of Beaches and Shores now recognizes the <br />nesting season in Indian River County (and other southeast Florida <br />counties) as beginning in March, based on the nesting cycle of the <br />federally endangered leatherback sea turtle. <br />Planning -staff and the PSAC both recommend that the Board of County <br />Commissioners adopt the proposed amendment, as presented. On a 4-0 <br />vote, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended adoption of <br />the proposed amendment. <br />The Vice Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if <br />anyone wished to be heard on this section. There being none, he <br />closed the public hearing. <br />The Vice Chairman announced that the consensus of the Board <br />was to follow staff's recommendation. <br />There being no further business to come before the Board, the <br />meeting was adjourned at 9:52 p.m. <br />ATTEST: <br />J. kA3arton, Clerk John W.
