Jut BUSH <br />GovERNoa OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA <br />April 15, 2002 <br />The Honorable Ruth M. Stanbridge <br />Chairman <br />Indian River County Commission <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960-3365 <br />Dear Chairman Stanbridge: <br />Congratulations on receiving a Front Porch Florida designation for the Gifford community. I <br />know you have worked tirelessly over the past two years in order to obtain this very important <br />milestone for the community, and you are to be commended for your involvement. <br />The positive steps you took to lead your community in change and your constant <br />communication with the Executive Office of the Governor greatly facilitated this important <br />designation. <br />Indian River County is fortunate to have you as a leader. I look forward to assisting you in your <br />efforts in the Gifford community through this Front Porch Florida designation. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jeb Bush <br />Chairman Stanbridge commended staff, especially Long -Range Planning Chief <br />Sasan Rohani, for their exceptional job in working with the Gifford leaders to facilitate this <br />grant. The Governor's Director of Programs called her earlier but asked her not to publicize <br />the designation until he had a chance to make his announcement. There are a number of <br />other small unincorporated communities in the County which could benefit from what we <br />have learned in this process. <br />APRIL 16, 2002 <br />
