Dean, Director <br />Department of General Services <br />Indian River County <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Dear Mr. Dean: <br />Pursuant to our conversation today, this letter will confirm the <br />recent decision of Sun-Up's Board of Directors to withdraw their <br />application for the lease of the former Youth Manor property. <br />It was the Board's feeling that this property would only act as a <br />temporary facility for the handicapped young adults of Indian <br />River and, therefore, we must focus our efforts on a location <br />which will be able to accommodate these individuals for a <br />"lifetime" of care. <br />I wish to thank you and the commissioners for their consideration <br />of our application as well as the courtesies extended to us <br />during our visits with the individual commissioners. <br />Sincerely, <br />Pat Skalackf <br />President <br />May 12, 1998 <br />M <br />
