BREVARD COUNTY, MERRITT ISLAND, FLORIDA – A bunch of involved residents from Merritt Island on Florida’s Area Coast, have organized a PAC (Political Motion Committee) to review and educate themselves and their fellow residents, on the feasibility of changing into included because the Metropolis of Merritt Island.

The group known as The Merritt Island Preservation Committee (MIPC) and is led partially by Marcus Harmon, who serves on the board of administrators of MIRA (Merritt Island Redevelopment Company).

The MIPC Pac went earlier than the Brevard County Fee in February of 2023 to request that the county fund a feasibility research to take a look at the difficulty.

The Brevard County Fee accredited with a 5-0 vote, a $45,000 appropriation to fund such a research.

That research is being produced by BJM Consulting Inc. and in response to Harmon, it is going to be prepared for public view inside 2-4 weeks.
