, <br />BOOK 10". FADE 14 <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Stanbridge, the <br />Board unanimously added the above items to the <br />Agenda. <br />5. PROCLAMATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS <br />S.A. REPRESENTATIVE CHARLES SEMBLER -REPORT TO COUNTY <br />Chairman Macht introduced Representative Sembler and noted that he is the person <br />who has "brought home the bacon". The County has never before been represented with <br />greater vigor and effectiveness. <br />Representative Charles Sembler thanked the Board for the opportunity to make a <br />short presentation. He felt the recent legislative session was a very successful one. He <br />reported briefly on the budget surplus and the plans for its use in education, social services <br />and cultural arts. He also noted that 7.5 million dollars had been approved for the effort to <br />keep the Dodgers in Vero Beach; 3.75 million to be funded this year and the balance next <br />year. He expressed his support for the beach preservation plans and for the extension of the <br />P2000 program, now known as Florida Forever. He encouraged the Board to engage the <br />water projects early as the funds will quickly be allocated. <br />0 <br />Representative Sembler continued, mentioning budgeted items of particular interest <br />to Indian River County: water development and other water issues; recycling; the landfill; <br />CARL; the proposed Vero Beach High School Auditorium which will be very similar to <br />Sebastian River High's auditorium; parks such as Barber Street, Colorado inFellsmere, Duck <br />Point, Environmental Learning Center, Riverview Park in Sebastian, Sportsman's Park (the <br />gun range), North Indian River County Park, Troy Moody in Vero, the Sebastian Causeway, <br />and the Old School Restoration in Fellsmere, as well as the municipal sewer project in <br />Fellsmere, the Gifford Community Center and Indian River Community College youth <br />activity center. He also discussed funding for projects to clean the Sebastian River and the <br />Indian River Lagoon, as well as an additional $2,000,000 funding in county grants for Lost <br />Tree Islands. He noted that these are community interest issues , not "turkeys". <br />Chairman Macht commented that these certainly are not "turkeys" but "doves of the <br />very whitest plumage". These projects will impact the community for years to come. He <br />also noted that discussion had been held regarding naming a park for Representative <br />Sembler. <br />MAY 4, 1999 <br />-2- <br />• <br />
