Ms . Reed believed that every inch should remain in the County to give the public <br /> access . Many people in the community are opposed to this action in the Driver case . <br /> Commissioner Macht noted that the Board agreed with Ms . Reed . <br /> Commissioner Ginn noted that the Judge has already ruled and she did not believe the <br /> County has any basis for an appeal . <br /> Lee Skinner, 12800 82 "d Court, Sebastian, stated she bought her property 2 years ago <br /> and the rights- of--way were part of the attraction . She felt the Judge should be made aware <br /> of the ongoing community effort to preserve that area . She did not understand how the <br /> decision could have gone in favor of the Drivers . <br /> County Attorney Paul Bangel commented that another factor against filing an appeal <br /> is that a risk would be taken that a negative result would set a binding precedent at the <br /> appellant level . <br /> Jackie Jones (no address given) also did not understand the decision . She stated that <br /> the historical townsite was built around those areas . <br /> Attorney Collins attempted to explain that the filing of the plat showing the road <br /> implies an offer to dedicate , but to perfect the dedication, a body has to take formal <br /> acceptance . The claim is , therefore , valid under common law . The law was changed in 1971 <br /> to indicate that these rights -of--way can be accepted by resolution or by use . <br /> Commissioner Stanbridge suggested that the ladies meet with the attorneys after this <br /> meeting in an effort to clear up their misunderstandings and the attorneys indicated their <br /> willingness to assist . <br /> DECEMBER 5 , 2000 BK 1 16 PG 2 61 <br /> - 19- <br />
