The second change extends the time for full payment of all sewer impact <br />fees from the developer for an additional seven years, to June 5, 2002, <br />and restricts the County from forcing a water connection of the Park <br />until the same date. This is also a seven-year extension. <br />The agreement takes no position on whether the developer has the legal <br />right to pass-through impact fees to tenants. <br />Recommendation: Staff recommends adoption of the amendment to the <br />1985 agreement. <br />Attorney Vitunac presented staff's recommendation for the <br />adoption of the amendment to the 1985 agreement. He explained that <br />in addition to the $142,967, Administrator Chandler has about <br />$6,900 of extra money which was earned by interest and other <br />accounting methods that is really related to that $142,967. Staff <br />has proposed that we put all that into the cost of connecting the <br />park. That way, the money that came from the original developer in <br />1985 will be used for the development to get them connected and not <br />for the benefit of anyone in particular. The other changes of this <br />agreement relate to extending the deadlines for final payment of <br />all the ERUs until 2002. In addition, the County would not require <br />water connection before 2002. Attorney Vitunac believed these two <br />provisions are essential to a new owner of the park taking over. <br />With that, he recommended approval. <br />Commissioner Scurlock had two concerns on the issue. The <br />first is that approval is subject to final audit to make sure that <br />the $142,967 figure and the $6,900 figure are correct numbers. He <br />felt they are, but subject to that, he wanted to make it clear that <br />those amounts will not go to any park owner, that it will go <br />towards any cost of hooking up the system. He also wanted to make <br />it clear that we take no position, again, that the park owner has <br />any rights to pass or not pass anything through to the residents of <br />the park. He felt that would hold everyone harmless on that issue. <br />At least we don It make it worse or better; it stays the same. <br />Subject to that, he'would move staff's recommendation. <br />Attorney Vitunac noted that Commissioner Scurlock has talked <br />with the residents and they have reviewed this. They are here this <br />morning, but he believed they have no problem with it. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, that the Board approve staff's <br />recommendation to approve the Modification of Agreement <br />Relating to the Provision of Wastewater Treatment Service <br />to Village Green Phase SIV (West) by Indian River County, <br />Florida. <br />41 <br />JAN 2 11' <br />
