He indicated staff had a proposal <br />to explore the feasibility of restoring part of the beach in the absence of needed <br />easements for the entire sector. <br />Coastal Resources Manager Quintin Bergman presented the Board with a proposal to <br />conduct an alternate assessment of Sector 7. Mr. Bergman informed the Board that <br />the County had received construction permits from the Florida Department of <br />Environmental Protection (FDEP) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to bring -in <br />sand which was valid until September 2035. However, FEMA reimbursement funds <br />for a whole -sector restoration were no longer available. Staff recommended <br />conducting a study to evaluate the constructability and effectiveness of performing a <br />truncated project within Sector 7. <br />Commissioner Adams entered into discussion with Mr. Bergman and Kylie Yanchula, <br />Natural Resources Director, regarding funding for the proposal. Ms. Yanchula noted <br />there were funding opportunities identified in the County's Beach Preservation Plan. <br />The first step was to evaluate the viability of an alternative design that did not include <br />the feeder beach; there were funds available for the assessment. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Earman, seconded by Chairman Flescher, <br />Indian River County, Florida Page 9 <br />
