The Board of County Commissioners of Indian River County, met at the
Courthouse, Vero Beach, Florida in a regular meeting held at 9:00 o'clock
A.M., Tuesday, July 19, 1960. Present were Robert W. Graves, Chairman;
D. B. McCullers, Dr. B. Q. Waddell and Donald Macdonald. Absent was J. J.
P. Hamilton. Also present were Ed Schmucker, County Engineer; Sherman N.
Smith, Jr., Attorney; and Katherine Morrison, Deputy Clerk.
Joe Michaels was recognized by the Chair and stated that he was quite
concerned over the erosion of the beaches, especially in the North end of
the County. That he was particularly opposed to the placing of permanent
foundation close to the beach and also opposed to groins on the beach. He
stated he would like for the Board to study this problem and see if something
could be done with regard to allowing permanent foundations and groins near
the beach. The Board requested the County Attorney study this matter and
see whether or not we could regulate these items.
Mr. James Daniel of the Silver Line Motel appeared before the Board
and stated that the City of Vero Beach had passed an ordinance prohibiting
rate signs in front of motels, and requested that the Board adopt a similar
resolution. The County Attorney stated he did not know whether this Board
or the Planning and Zoning Board had the authority to pass sudh a resolution.
The Board requested the County Attorney look into the matter and see whether
or not we could legally adopt such a resolution.
A letter was read from Pasco Woods requesting payment of certain costs
as set forth in his letter for Frank Hamblin, for the reason they were expenses
expended by the defendant in a criminal case entitled State of Florida vs.
Frank Hamblin, and which said case was nolle prosequi. The County Attorney
stated he was not sure whether or not bail bond costs and Court Reporter
costs were allowable costs. After some discussion in the matter, Motion was
made by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded by Commissioner Waddell and carried,
that the costs should be assessed by the County Judge, after which said
costs as assessed by the Court would be paid by the Board.
