Manage episode 277352008 series 2822298
Today I am continuing my string of interviews with local leaders with Tim Zorc who is currently serving his second term as a commissioner for Indian River County Florida. Tim continues what his family started over 100 years ago as a Realtor, Consultant, Builder/Developer and Elected Official. From his family's initial purchase in 1914, the property grew to over 10,000 acres with operations such as Lazy “K” Ranch and Kerr Gift Fruit Company. As a real estate developer Tim and his family have built hundreds of homes and commercial buildings. Tim and his wife Laura are local philanthropists and foster parents and help other families foster children. He and his fellow commissioners are responsible for overseeing over 1,300 employees and an annual budget of more than $300 million. Tim’s current focus includes the following:
· Environmental and economic development plans for all of Indian River County
· Pilot projects to help clean up the Indian River Lagoon and Bethel Creek
· A 12-point economic development plan to help create new jobs in the county
United We Stand. Divided We Fall. Each One for the Other, and All for All.
