Commissioner Robert Graves, seconded by Commissioner McCullers and unanimously carried, the
following Resolution was adopted:
R E S O L U T I O N -- Wabasso to Winter Beach
State Road #5
That the Board of County Commissioners of Indian River County, Florida, recommend

I Beach to Wabasso follow the alignment as laid out and established on the County's aerial
photographs, that is, in general that it be approximately 430 feet centerline to centerline
East of the present right of way. Our reason for this request is first, the cost of obtaining
this right of way will be less; second, the road'on this alignment will leave valuable
on both sides of the road instead of only one side, and; third, it will permit the retaining
of the present State Road 5 as a local road from Wabasso to Vero Beach.
