r <br />BOOK 103 PAGE 7E <br />County Attorney Vitunac believed that is what the Board is doing. Should something <br />go wrong during the process, the County can withdraw its application and be right back <br />where it is today. The HCP process allows the County to negotiate with Fish & Wildlife <br />until we get some agreement we are satisfied with, while still ceasing the seawall litigation, <br />abating the Gerstner problem and allowing these people to take temporary measures to <br />protect their properties. <br />Commissioner Ginn wanted to see the seawall permits granted and the owners <br />allowed to complete them. She also felt more time was needed to read and digest the <br />agreement and would like to contact Fish & Wildlife regarding their restrictions before <br />accepting the agreements. <br />MOTION WAS AGAIN MADE by Commissioner <br />Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Stanbridge, <br />to accept the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) <br />and the Interim Agreement with the following <br />changes: (1) Paragraph 10, remove "not to exceed <br />$100,000" and (2) remove Paragraph 16 entirely. <br />Cheryl Gerstner, 2035 Surfside Terrace, commented that her seawall is just a tiny <br />stretch in the overall picture. The wall has been in place for 2 years and everyone continues <br />to spend time and money agonizing over it. She appreciated all the consideration given to <br />her by the Board but did not feel the agreement, in its present form, looks like a solution. <br />Vince Bruno, regarding the Simpson seawall, also believed that Attorney Adelson <br />should go back to the DEP and ask that these walls be permitted. <br />Ms. Livingston of Smuggler's Cove asked the Board to please try to keep this in the <br />state as opposed to federal government. <br />Commissioner Ginn again stated that she needs more time. She wants to review the <br />MOA and see the seawalls permitted before approving any HCP. <br />MARCH 16, 1999 <br />
