Chairman Adams advised Mr. Barney that the Board had reviewed all this information previously and suggested that Mr. Barney meet with staff who would be happy to go over all the prior applications and details. Mr. Barney then questioned whether the County would continue to grant emergency permits without any further discussion or long term coastal management plan. He felt this is unfair to residents as seawalls have a great impact on adjacent property. Chairman Adams reminded Mr. Barney that citizens have a right to protect their property. The County is trying to put together a beach management plan and trying to work with Sebastian Inlet. Many other alternatives have been tried and staff has put forth an enormous effort to try to come up with solutions to the problems. The workshop is only one effort and staff would be glad to bring Mr. Barney up to date. Commissioner Ginn felt Mr. Barney should know that these homes are undermined and something has to be done to protect these properties. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously granted an emergency permit to construct a temporary seawall to Larry Gerstner and Cheryl Gerstner at 2035 Surfside Terrace, Vero Beach.
