    The Department of Elder Affairs announces a public meeting to which all persons are invited.

    DATE AND TIME: Thursday, March 13, 2014, 2:00 p.m. 4:00 p.m.

    PLACE: Indian River Administrative Complex, 1800 27th Street, Vero Beach, FL 32960

    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The purpose of the workshop is to discuss the benefits of senior zones. Senior zones raise a driver’s awareness that they are entering an area where they need to exercise additional caution.

Two additional workshops are planned in March 2014 for Broward and Sarasota counties.
