BOOK 103 PAGE 284 <br />Commissioner Ginn was pleased with the wording now on Policy 2.2. <br />Commissioner Adams questioned the deletions concerning private docks, and <br />Commissioner Ginn advised that suggested deletion came from MANWAC. <br />A staff member advised it was based on Deputy County Attorney William G. Collins' <br />advice, who pointed out that the whole purpose of having a dock is to increase the value of <br />a property. <br />Commissioner Adams felt this did not have anything to do with increasing the value <br />of the property and recalled past problems with private docks being rented out for live- <br />aboards. She felt that needed to be addressed in some manner. <br />The staff member pointed out that this policy is being revised to say that we are going <br />to look into changing these policies, that they are as they are currently stated in the LDR's. <br />Changes will be looked at as part of the Manatee Protection Plan now being worked on. <br />Chairman Eggert directed that the Board already struggled once on an issue and did <br />not want it repeated. <br />Commissioner Adams agreed, saying that a private dock should not be rented out for <br />the purpose of living aboard a vessel. She will not be happy if that concern is. not prohibited <br />from happening again. <br />Mr. DeBlois suggested it could be kept as is reflected now in the LDR's. <br />There was CONSENSUS to leave it in and County Attorney Vitunac will discuss the <br />matter with Deputy County Attorney Collins. <br />Chairman Eggert asked if there were any questions on the revised Policy 7.3. There <br />were none. <br />Commissioner Ginn had a question on Policy 8. 1, Page 98, and wanted to know what <br />kind of participation we are looking for on the Indian River Lagoon `Blueway". <br />Commissioner Adams advised that they had supported the effort and are sharing in <br />some of the purchases along there to protect the area. <br />Mr. DeBlois stated that it was worded to keep our options open to participate without <br />being specific as to the level of participation. <br />Chairman Eggert thought it had been decided not to participate in management in any <br />way, and Mr. DeBlois stated that was correct. <br />OCTOBER 29, 1997 <br />
