Chairman Stanbridge praised Ms. 7ahner for creative thinking outside the box to <br />benefit the entire community. <br />Genia Bradwell thanked the Board for putting this on the agenda and she really <br />appreciated the fact that they listen. She specified that although this is being done with <br />volunteers, she thought that it is so important that more is needed. The parks are immaculate <br />but the beaches are often littered and she has heard a lot of complaints from tourists. She <br />wondered if perhaps the County's resources might be allotted differently by assigning <br />someone to pick up the litter on the beach. She was surprised to learn that no one was <br />assigned to the tracking station beach area since it is not under any local jurisdiction. Many <br />of the things that wash up appear to have been dumped by cruise ships. She appreciated <br />anything the Board can do and she would be glad to help. <br />Commissioner Ginn thought this ought to be addressed during budget time and <br />thought it was not enough to just pick up debris. Often the amount of seaweed can be great <br />and smelly and that also needs to be addressed. She knew the City of Vero Beach rakes their <br />beach during off -turtle season and the Board might want to consider doing that on some of <br />our beaches. She suggested this be addressed in July during the Budget Workshops. She <br />thanked Ms. Bradwell for doing and thinking outside the box. <br />CLERK'S NOTE- AT THE CONCLUSION OF THF, LAST ITEM ON THE <br />AGENDA, THE CHAIRMAN ANNOUNCED THAT COUNTY <br />ATTORNEY MATTERS (INF MS 12.A. AND 12.B.) WOULD BE THF <br />NEXT ORDER OF BUSINESS. THOSE ITEMS ARE FOUND IN THEIR <br />NUMF-FRIC ORDER TO PRFISERVE AGl-NDA CONTINUITY. <br />April 23, 2002 <br />78 <br />J <br />
