ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, the Board <br />unanimously approved a letter of support. <br />COPY OF LETTER IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE <br />OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />13.D. TREASURE COAST REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL - <br />REQUEST FOR PERMANENT MUNICIPAL VOTING <br />POSITION - CITY OF SEBASTIAN <br />The Board reviewed a letter of January 29, 1998, and Memoranda of February 3 and <br />February 6, 1998: <br />Larne Paul <br />Councilman <br />City of Sebastian <br />1225 Matin Strcet <br />Sebastian. Fl. 32958 <br />January 29.1998 <br />Fran B. Adams <br />County Commisioner <br />District 1 <br />Indian River County <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Fl. 32960 <br />Dcar Mrs. Adams, <br />The Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, during its December meeting, announced its <br />voting membership for the 1999 year. As you know, tho City of Vero Beach along with the <br />County Commisioners hold the permanent voting position with the Regional Planting Council. <br />The other voting membership is shared by the three remaining cities, Town of Indian River <br />Shores. Fellesmere, and Sebastian. The City of Sebastian was apart of the Councils 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 noting 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 woukd prevent the three cities from feeling as if they have no input <br />until their scheduled year on Council. <br />I respectfully request that 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 neat regularly scheduled meeting. <br />Please accept my sincere thankyou in advance. <br />With Warm Regards <br />Lam, Paul �`�� y�-"•_..
