THEY EFFECTIVELY GOT FREE. HE FELT, HOWEVER, THAT THESE ARE NOT CRITICAL AREAS, AND THE COUNTY PROBABLY WILL NEVER BUY THEM BACK. THE OVERALL AGREEMENT DOES A LOT OF GOOD FOR THE PEOPLE IN THESE AREAS WHO NEED SERVICE AND PRESENTLY CAN'T GET IT, AND HE, THEREFORE, RECOMMENDS'APPROVAL OF THE SQUARING -OFF AGREEMENT. COMMISSIONER LYONS FELT THE BUY-BACK FORMULA IS PROBABLY NEGO- TIABLE, BUT THAT THE PLACE TO CHANGE IT IS IN THE TOTAL AGREEMENT AND HE WOULD NOT WANT TO HOLD UP THIS PRESENT AGREEMENT. HE FELT THE ODDS ARE VERY SLIGHT THAT WE WOULD INCORPORATE INTO THESE AREAS. MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER LYONS, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER SIEBERT, TO AUTHORIZE THE CHAIRMAN TO SIGN ANNEX 3 TO THE TRIPARTITE AGREEMENT, COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED IF THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT WERE CHANGED, WHETHER ANNEX 3 WOULD BE IN CONFLICT WITH IT, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT IF WE EVER CHANGED THE ORIGINAL WE WOULD CHANGE IT AND THE ANNEXES. CHAIRMAN WODTKE DISCUSSED AREAS WE MIGHT BE REQUIRED TO SERVICE WITH SEWER UNDER THE 201 FACILITIES FLAN. HE -NOTED THAT UNDER THE TRIPARTITE FLAN, IF WE TAKE OVER AREAS THE CITY IS PRESENTLY SERVICING WITH SEWER, WE ALSO HAVE TO SERVICE THEM WITH WATER, I.E., IF WE HAVE TO TAKE OVER THE HOSPITAL, WE WOULD ALSO HAVE TO SERVICE THEM WITH WATER PURCHASED FROM THE CITY AND PAY THE REPLACEMENT COST OF THE WATER LINES THAT THE HOSPITAL HAS PAID FOR TO THE CITY BASED ON THE BUY-BACK FORMULA. ATTORNEY COLLINS AGREED THAT.IS SO, IF WE CANNOT RENEGOTIATE, HE NOTED THAT WE ALREADY HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY THE CHAIRMAN IS DIS- CUSSING, AND ALL ANNEX 3 DOES IS CLARIFY THE WATER RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CITY OF VERO BEACH AND ALLOW THE CITY TO PROVIDE SERVICE TO ADJACENT NEIGHBORS. THE CHAIRMAN EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT ANNEX 3 AFFECTING OUR 1.39 MILLION SEWER ALLOCATION IPJ ANY WAY, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS NOTED THAT IT STATES "THERE IS NO SEWER ALLOCATION ALLOCATED TO ANY OF SAID LOCATIONS." 73 MAY 91979 BOOK A® PAGE278
