The following petition was received from Indian River Farms
Drainage' District:
PETITION
Comes now INDIAN RWER FARMS DRAINAGE DISTRICT,
Petitioner, and requests INDIAN RIVER COUNTY to convey to the Petitioner
the following described properties under the provisions of Florida Statutes
194.471. Petitioner would show:
i/4t •
1. The description of the lands for which a conveyance is
sought is as follows:
The East .79 acres of the West 20.79 acres of Tract 5,
Section 15, Township 33 South, Range 39 East, according
to the last general plat of lands of the 'Indian River Farms
Company filed in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court
of St. Lucie County, Florida, in Plat Book 2, page 25; said
land now lying and being in Indian River County, Florida.
2. The name and address of the former owner of the above
property prior to the date of the Final Decree whereby the title to such lands
became quieted in the County is Indian River Farms Drainage District, 4400
20th Street, Vero Beach, Florida..
3. August 14, 1944 is the date of the Final Decree under which
the title to said lands was quieted in the County.
4, As far as can be determined the price of the entire West
20.79 acres of said Tract 5 was previously fined by Resolution of the Board of
County Commissioners in the amount of One. Hundred, Dollars {$100.00).
5. The said lands were vacant and unoccupied and not used by
the Petitioner at the time of the entry of said Final'Decree.
6. Indian River County acquired title to the West 20.79 acres
of Tract 5 of said Section 15, Township 33 South, Range 39 East by said Final
Decree dated August 14, 1944. In Deed No. 213 dated June 4, 1946, recorded
in Deed Book 44, page 214, the County of Indian River conveyed to your
Petitioner, INDIAN RIVER FARMS DRAINAGE DISTRICT, the West 20 acres
of Tract 5, Section 15, Township 33 South, Range 39 East. It appears that in
the description in said deed it was the intention of and should have been
described as the West 20.79 acres of said Tract 5 and. this' Petition is, there-
fore, requested to correct said error in description.

7. It appears that the Indian River County Tax Assessor's
office is assessing the property described as the West 20.79 acres, less
rights -of -ways and canals and that there are, no delinquent county taxes due on
said property. Also, this land is not lying within any municipality.
8. There is attached hereto Certificate of the Clerk of the
Circuit Court of Indian River County showing the amount of all delinquencies
existing at the time the title to the lands became vested in the County and
estimates of the amount of taxes which should have been accrued against said
lands had title not reverted to the County.
WHEREFORE, your Petitioner requests INDIAN RIVER COUNTY
to give a quit-claI m deed to it.

Florida, resolves:
1. That this Board is aware of the fact that under date of July 15,

did convey a parcel of property in this County to the Florida Board of Parks
and Historic Memorials, an agency of the State of Florida, and that said site
has great historic interest and value because it has been established that the
survivors from the loss of the Spanish Fleet of 1715 established their tem-
porary camp on this site and that in recent dears, under authority of the
State, artifacts and treasure have been salvaged from the sunkenand wrecked
ships from that fleet in the immediate vicinity of this site and that in the said
deed, the State of Florida did agree within three (3) years from the date of
the deed to begin the erection of a museum building for the display of
artifacts and treasure owned by the State salvaged from the mentioned fleet
and in the event the conditions named are not met within the time specified,
the deed becomes void and the property reverts to Mr. and Mrs. McLarty.
2. That it is the opinion of this Board that it would be a tragedy
which could never be corrected if the purposes and intent of said deed are
not carried out within the time specified and this. Board does herewith offer
its assistance in cooperation to the Florida Board of Parks and Historic
Memorials in order to enable it to meet all of these conditions.
3. That this Board does herewith respectfully request the Budget
Commission of the State of Florida to make available to the Florida Board of
Parks and Historic Memorials the necessary sum of money to permit the
erection of a museum building within the time required.
4. That this Board does further request the Governor and the
members of the Legislature of the State of Florida, in the event of any
special session of the Legislature, to consider this matter and to make
appropriations and give directions to the Florida Board of Parks. and Historic

Memorials in order that said museum building may be constructed.
5. That this Board does further respectfully request Mr. and
Mrs. McLarty to extend the time for meeting the conditions of said deed to
July 15, 1970, in order that if none of the above recited methods of construct-
ing said museum are accomplished, that then the session of the Florida
Legislature that convenes in the year 1969 may have an opportunity to make
an appropriation and issue directives for meeting such conditions as extended
in order that this unique historical site may be developed and preserved for
the benefit of all of the people of this State.
6, That certified copies of this Resolution be forwarded to Mr.
and Mrs. McLarty, the Governor, the members of his Cabinet and the Florida
Board of Parks and Historic Memorials.
