• <br />I have served as a member at large representative on the Emergency Services District <br />Advisory Committee for over eight (8) years and I am presently cutting back my outside <br />activities so I may spend more time on my professional activities. Due to this, I have <br />decided to resign from the advisory committee and would appreciate it if you would <br />consider this letter my formal resignation. It has been a pleasure to serve on this committee <br />over these years and I am leaving with the utmost respect for the outstanding job that is <br />done by Doug Wright and all the members of the fire and emergency service departments. <br />I feel that our county is very fortunate to have such dedicated and professional people to <br />rely on in emergency situations. <br />Kindest regards. <br />Very truly yours, <br />(K- <br />Byron T. Cooksey <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Stanbridge, SECONDED BY <br />Commissioner Ginn, the Board unanimously accepted with <br />regret the resignation of B. T.

O'Brien, Assistant County Attorney-0 <br />DATE: June 14, 1999 <br />SUBJECT: Settlement of the Turner vs. Drackett vs. IRC law suit <br />RE: 1) Memorandum from W.G. Collins to BCC, this subject, dated 4/12/99 <br />2) Memorandum from W.G. Collins to Robert Keating, this subject, dated 3/30/99 <br />(copies attached) <br />Court ordered mediation was held on June 1, 1999. An agreement was reached between the <br />parties subject to Board of County Commission approval. From a County standpoint, the Board of <br />County Commissioners would agree to grant an administrative minor variance which would result <br />in a combined set back between the properties of aJittie more than nineteen feet but less than the <br />20 feet required by the regulations. The revised property line would be substantially equidistant <br />between the two parcels. Under normal circumstances it would not be within the province of the <br />Board of County Board to grant variances to the land development regulations; however, in this <br />instances we are a party defendant to a law suit and this variance would be in settlement of that <br />law suit. This would be an action within the authority of the Board of County Commissioners. <br />JUNE 229 1999 <br />15 <br />• <br />BOOK iU'9 FAGE 57 0'- <br />
