Mr. John Drago, City Administrator
55 SE 3rd Avenue
Okeechobee, FL 34972
Dear Mr. Drago:
Mr. Cook, the city' s attorney, has suggested a meeting between
representatives of the city and the county to discuss the city' s
petition to the Department of Community Affairs for an
administrative hearing regarding the county' s adopted
Comprehensive Plan. This meeting is scheduled to take place on
Tuesday, September 15 at 1:00 pm. I believe that a meeting to
discuss the issues raised in the city' s petition is a good idea.
However, I believe that a meeting between representatives of the
city and the county would be even more productive if all parties
concerned had, in advance of the meeting, a written copy of the
specific actions the city recommends that the county undertake to
alleviate the city' s concerns regarding the county' s adopted
Comprehensive Plan. I believe that most, and perhaps all, of the
city' s concerns can be easily addressed. With an opportunity to
review the specific recommended actions, I suspect that some
issues can be immediately resolved. A basis for discussion of
any remaining issues will then have been developed so that our
meeting can concentrate on those issues. I thank you in advance
for supplying the concerned parties with any relevant information
and the city' s specific recommendations.
Sincerely,
William D. Royce
Director
