This certificate was necessary in <br />order to comply with Indian River Code of Laws and Ordinances as specified in Chapter 304. The <br />certificate was approved for a period of two (2) years and will expire February 11, 2024. <br />The Indian River County Code provides for routine renewal of the EMS Certificate of Public <br />Convenience and Necessity on an application by the certificate holder. This can be accomplished <br />without a public hearing if the Board has no reason to believe that the public health, safety, and <br />welfare require it. Staff submits that there is no reason to hold a public hearing and absent that <br />requirement, the Board is requested to renew the certificate. <br />An application for the renewal of the Class `B" Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity has <br />been submitted by Coastal Care Corporation dba Cleveland Clinic Advanced Medical Transport. <br />Staff have reviewed the application, and no reasons are known or perceived that would require a <br />public hearing pursuant to the established ordinance. <br />FUNDING: <br />There are no funding requirements for this item. <br />41 <br />
