The purpose of the delegation meeting, prior to the convening of the regular session of the Florida Legislature, is to consider the introduction of Special Acts relating to Indian River County, and to allow local residents an opportunity to voice their opinions on various issues to the delegation. Anyone wishing to have a Special Act for Indian River County introduced should have the Act drafted and delivered to my office at 1053 20th Place - City Hall, before November 27, 1996. A statement by an attorney, that the purpose of the Act cannot be accomplished by a local ordinance or rule, is required with each proposed Special Act, along with two copies of proof of publication. If you have any questions regarding the meeting, or wish to be on the agenda to address the delegation, please contact my Legislative Assistant Dawn Smith or my Legislative Secretary Carol Gerow in my District office, phone number 778-5077. County Attorney Vitunac advised the Legislative Delegation will meet on December 4th and we need to get the presentation to Representative Sembler as soon as possible. Chairman Adams and Commissioner Tippin agreed they will bring back the needed information from the FACo Legislative Meeting being held this week.

The Honorable Fran B. Adams, Chairman Indian River County Board of County Commissioners 1840 25th Street, Suite N-158 Vero Beach, FL 32960 Subject: Annual Appointment cf Ccuncil -W.Iet*±be-s Dear Chairman Adams: In accordance with Council's Rules of Organization, the December meeting is designated as the Annual Meeting, at which time the appointment of all members and alternates is to occur. It is therefore requested that the Board of County Commissioners take the necessary action to appoint members and alternates for the upcoming year. In the case of Indian River County, three members and three alternates need to be appointed (two county, one municipal). It should be noted that all alternates must be elected officials. Additionally, the bylaws do not specifically indicate that municipal appointments must be either appointed or approved by the County. Each county is assigned the number of appointments and the method for making the appointments is left to the discretion and cooperation of the local governments in the area. It would be appreciated if the County would notify the Council of the appointments, including mailing addresses and telephone numbers, as soon as possible, so that the agenda packet for the December meeting can be provided in a timely fashion.
