As you know, the City of Vero Beach along with the <br />County Commisioners hold the permanent voting position with the Regional Planning Council.# <br />The other voting membership is shared by the three remaining cities, Town of Indian Raver <br />Shores, Fellesmere, and Sebastian The City of Sebastian was a part of the Council's 1997 <br />voting membership and has since been removed, being replaced by Indian River Shores. At the <br />last meeting I talked to Mike Busha ,:Executive Director for the council and asked if there would <br />be a problem in keeping the City of Sebastian a voting member since the city is the second largest <br />city in the county. Mr. Busha stated he could see no reason why the Council could not allow <br />Indian River County to have another full time voting member. He also stated that it would be up <br />to the County Commisioners to authorize the additional voting member. If Sebastian holds a full <br />time voting position, then the other two cities would serve as alternates,there by providing <br />opportunity for more input and views shared by the county with the council. Growth is rapidly <br />changing our cities andthis would prevent the three cities from feeling as if they have no input <br />until their scheduled year on Council. <br />I respectfully request haat the City of Sebastian be made a permanent voting member of the <br />Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, and that Mr. Michael Busha be notified of this <br />request at the next regularly scheduled meeting. <br />Please accept my sincere thankyou in advance. <br />With Warm Regards <br />Larry Paul <br />Councilman <br />February 3, 1998 <br />52 <br />0 0 <br />
