R E S O L U T I O N WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Indian River County, Florida, has heretofore adopted its Resolution pertaining to the right of way widths for Jobs 88500-3601 thru 3604, 88560- 3601, 8b590-3601, being connections between Old SRS and Relocated SR5, directed to the State Road Department of Florida, and WHEREAS, the State Road Department has requested this Board to confirm its understanding with respect to parallel drainage, Now, therefore; BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Indian River County, Florida, that this Board does herewith request the State Road Department of Florida to construct these connections upon the reduced right of way requirements as heretofore transmitted to that Department with the understanding that the necessary drainage for these connecting roads will be handled by the County. A letter was read from the Florida Division of Corrections stating that the colored cell block at the jail is over -crowded and something should be done about it. Motion was made by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded by Commissioner Waddell and carried, that the County Engineer and the Sheriff make a survey of the jail and recommend to the Board the improvements that are needed for the next ten years, and that in preparing our next budget consideration be given to providing for these necessary improvements and that the Secretary advise by letter the Prison Inspection Board of what the Board has in mind. The County Engineer stated he had provided quite a bit of fill for the Entomological Lab on Oslo road and that they had requested additional work by the County but it would mean having to rent special equipment which the County does not have to do the job. The Board stated they would not go along with renting any equipment for work of this nature. There being no further business, the meeting then adjourned.
