WHEREAS, historically Indian River County has developed

St. Lucie County; and
WHEREAS, Indian River County is geographically
connected to the rest of the Treasure Coast region by

is thus oriented to the counties to the south rather than
the counties to the north; and
WHEREAS, Indian River County is also allied with the
rest of the Treasure Coast by reason of newspapers and
television and radio stations, since Indian River County is
in the market area of these communication industries; and
WHEREAS, Indian River County is part of the Fourth
District Court of Appeal, which is headquartered in West
Palm Beach; and
WHEREAS, Indian River County has for many years been an
integral part of the Treasure Coast Regional Planning

counties to the south than by those in any other regional
planning council area;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, that:
Indian River County officially records its opposition
to any change which would remove Indian River County from
the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, and that this
opposition be delivered in person to the Substate Boundaries
