Chairman Adams noted that this plan was first introduced by Mr. Chichewicz in 1993 <br />or 1994. <br />Tom Buchanan, a concerned citizen, felt this is a beautiful project but believed it <br />should be in a more centrally located area. <br />Jim Carter, 429 Seagrass Avenue, coached swimming in Ft. Pierce and helped coach <br />at Sebastian River High School. His daughter is now a lifeguard with the County. He <br />believed there is definitely a need for this project. The north end of the county is rapidly <br />growing and the children from that area are being bused to St. Edward's to take advantage <br />of their pool. He felt the project should go forward. <br />Michael Brink, 598 Ray Street, stated that his daughter learned to swim in a deep <br />pool at the YMCA and is now training at St. Edward's where the pool is very crowded. This <br />project is needed. <br />Lynn Brink, 598 Ray Street, stated that the population in Sebastian is very close to <br />the population in Vero Beach. Residents in Sebastian often feel left out. She drives her <br />daughter to St. Edward's and that is a 45 -minute trip. There are now 1200 kids in elementary <br />school alone in Sebastian. She hoped the pool will be available so her daughter can take <br />advantage of scholarship offerings. <br />Curtis Caywood, 211 Faith Terrace, noted that the pool will also be used by residents <br />of Wabasso and Fellsmere. He has 2 children who have to be driven to St. Edward's by his <br />wife and we really need a pool in our area. <br />JULY 119 2000 <br />BK 114 PG 154 <br />
