To: Board of County Commissioners From: Commissioner Carolyn K. Eggert Date: February 3, 1998 Subject: Request for Permanent Municipal Voting Position on the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council The attached letter was placed on the February 3, 1998 County Commission agenda. The Board voted to request that the City of Sebastian be added to the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council as a permanent municipal voting member. Since the meeting, it has been learned that Councilman Paul's information was incorrect. The City of Vero Beach is on a rotation schedule with all of the other municipalities in Indian River County. A copy of the rotation schedule is attached. I have requested that this be placed back on the County Commission agenda and that the following information be obtained: Did the request come from the Sebastian City Council, or from a single council member? Does the City of Vero Beach also want a permanent position on the Planning Council? What are the methods of getting on the Planning Council? What happens to the other three municipalities if the two largest municipalities are voting members? To: Board of County Commissioners From: Alice E. White, Exec. Aide Date: February 6, 1997 Subject: Procedures to lengthen term on TCRPC, or to add a member Mr. Busha called me and said the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council already has 27 members, however, if the County Commission wants to lengthen the term of municipal members, or add a municipal member, they may do one of the following: The Commission can give up one of their representatives and substitute a municipal member. 2. The Cities within the County can get together and work out a rotation schedule that would serve for 2 to 3 years. (Currently the municipalities rotate every 2 years.) 3. The County can request the TCRPC to change4ts rules of organization to add a new municipal representative. FEBRUARY 10, 1998 -58- • 40
