Mr. Nunemaker stated that they need to remember that the focus of this Agreement is to supplant the Charter. Through a PowerPoint presentation, he discussed "where we are today", noting that their reserve areas are some of the biggest issues, and they have retracted those substantially. On the issue of "where they are going," he felt they need more refinement on Exhibit "F", and that is basically their first efforts in trying to meet the County halfway on the development guidelines for both the Ro-Ed and FJV properties. He said Intergovernmental Coordination issues are some of the other issues that have been brought up; and they are not a part of Charter government; not a part of the issues that were expressed that would be addressed in Charter, but nonetheless, they are willing to discuss those issues and even incorporate some of them into the Agreement. Mr. Nunemaker displayed a map of the Fellsmere area depicting annexed lands, signifying where it all began. They developed their own initiating resolution for the ISBA process, and they set forth very broad parameters for what the potential annexation area would be. He admitted it was a very substantial area that they have revised significantly throughout the process. One of the first issues Fellsmere identified was one of the conflicts they had with the City of Sebastian. There was concern about Fellsmere moving to the east and various properties over there; and that was one of the things Fellsmere tried to resolve. The other issue was the City of Vero Beach's expressed concern of where they were going on the southeast side, and Fellsmere has tried to address that as well. Mr. Nunemaker showed an example of some of the retractions they have made - they moved back the Corrigan property to west of I-95, and they moved back some of the properties close to Sebastian. 7 July 23, 2008 / Joint Workshop ISBA, Sebastian
