BOOK 2 ea T-11 <br />J U L 5 1994 <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously <br />approved staff's recommendation, as presented. <br />AGREEMENT WILL BE PLACED ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE <br />CLERK TO THE BOARD WHEN PROPERLY EXECUTED AND RECEIVED <br />DISCUSSION RE APPOINTMENT OF ALTERNATE VOTING MEMBER <br />TO PLANNING & ZONING COMNIISSION <br />The Board reviewed the following letter dated June 29, 1994: <br />BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />1840 25th Street, Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Telephone: (407) 567-e= <br />June 29, 1994 <br />Hon. John W. Tippin, Chairman <br />Indian River Co. Board of Commissioners <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, FL 32960 <br />Dear John, <br />The chronic failure of assembling a full panel of P & Z <br />commissioners is both embarrassing and misleading. The <br />time has passed to take corrective action. I propose that <br />the enabling legislation be amended to provide for an <br />alternate commissioner empowered to take the seat of an <br />absent regular member and vote the issue. <br />Yours truly, <br />Kenneth R. Macht, <br />Vice Chairman <br />Under discussion, Commissioner Macht asked whether, in light <br />of recent voted at Planning & Zoning Commission meetings where <br />applicants' requests have been technically denied due to absences, <br />we should change our enabling legislation to include an alternate <br />member to vote for an absent member on an issue. Since we appoint <br />from the 5 districts, the individual would not be able to assume a <br />full seat on the vacancy, but would be able to assume regular <br />membership in the district from which he comes, or from the members <br />40 <br />
