INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA MEMORANDUM TO: Jason E. Brown; County Administrator THROUGH: Phillip J Matson, AICP; Community Development Director THROUGH: Ryan Sweeney; Chief, Current Development FROM: Mary Jane Vreeland; Planner, Current Development DATE: April 28, 2020 SUBJECT: Jesse R. Almand, Summer P. Almand, Richard Lefebure, and Abigail Lefebure's Request for Affidavit of Exemption Approval with Dedications to the County [AOE-19-12-05 / 99080143-85359] (Almand AOE) It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of May 12, 2020.
