Director Burke and Utility Finance Manager Cindy Corrente answered questions from the Board regarding the current condition of existing meters, future technology, related infrastructure and associated costs involved in implementing the new system. Commissioner O'Bryan and Vice Chairman Flescher expressed their concern over the excessive amount of hours that are being requested to put together Request for Proposals (RFP) and contract negotiations for information that should be readily available from other jurisdictions. ON MOTION by Vice Chairman Flescher, SECONDED by Chairman Solari, the Board directed staff to: (1) work with Langham Consulting to formulate and create a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Project that encourages the widest possible industry response in order to provide the County with the best possible solution; (2) for Langham to work with staff and assist in contract negotiations with a vendor for a pilot project and potential AMI conversion; and (3) return to the Board with a contract for final approval at a future Board meeting. 13. COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS 11:39 A. Humiston Park Parking Lot — County Deed to City of Vero Beach a.m.(memorandum dated June 2, 2016) 171-176 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- County Attorney Dylan Reingold recalled the Board's direction from the Board meeting on April 12, 2016, regarding the preparation of a County Deed formally transferring title of the Humiston Park Parking Lot to the City Of Vero Beach with the condition that it remained zoned P-2 Park, and that no building could be built over the parking lot. The City of Vero Beach resisted including additional restricted language above what was already contained in the original resolution.
