Commissioner Adams asked if the consensus was for a review and correction to these <br />discrepancies. <br />Assistant County Attorney Terrence P. O'Brien advised that an annual review is <br />required and that he and Vice Chairman Macht and Ms. Johnston had already -had one <br />meeting to go over the matter in an attempt to get rid of all the inconsistencies. <br />Commissioner Ginn felt it was something that needs to be done and also felt that <br />people who just work and do not live in Indian River County should not be members of this <br />committee or any committee since they do not pay county taxes. <br />Commissioner Adams disagreed.
