Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final January 24, 2017 <br />Mr. de Liege explained that this item had come to the Board as an emergency <br />item because his financiers needed a commitment for the property purchase. <br />County Attorney Dylan Reingold said he would work with Mr. de Liege to <br />incorporate the items in the Backup into a 90 -day Option Agreement, and bring <br />it back to the next Board meeting. <br />Administrator Brown requested the new Agreement to include that in the event <br />of a hurricane, the County will retain the right to utilize other methods of <br />disposal for processed vegetative waste. He mentioned that Alliance <br />BioEnergy has been attempting to acquire the site through their bank, and <br />elaborated on why it would be a win-win to continue with the Request for <br />Proposal (RFP). <br />Bob Johnson, Coral Wind Subdivision, agreed with Commissioner Adams' <br />concern over the lack of Backup information and bringing it to the Board as an <br />emergency item. He encouraged the Board to ensure that the drinking water at <br />the site is safe before moving forward. <br />Mr. de Liege explained the process of the technology, and conveyed that his <br />company would not be producing waste, using the well, or putting anything into <br />the ground, water, or air. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Zorc, seconded by Commissioner Solari, <br />to direct staff to draft a 90 -day Option Agreement that includes the conditions <br />contained in the January 23, 2017 memorandum, as follows: (1) no fee or charge <br />will be associated with yard waste; (2) no guarantee for the quality or quantity of <br />the post process yard waste; (3) the County will keep a percentage of the yard <br />waste; (4) in the event of a hurricane, the County will retain the right to utilize <br />other methods of disposal of processed vegetative waste; and (4) the proposed <br />Agreement will be brought back to the Board of County Commission meeting on <br />February 7, 2017.
