Citing objections to three state agencies having voting representation on the newly formed Indian River Lagoon Council and calling for a sunset provision, the Indian River County Commission recently voted 5-0 not to participate in the new region effort to address the Lagoon crisis. The Indian River Lagoon Council includes representation from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the Saint John’s and South Florida Water Management Districts and the county commissions of Brevard, St. Lucie, Martine and Palm Beach Counties.
