The motion carried by the following vote: <br /> Aye: 5- Chairman Flescher, Vice Chairman O'Bryan, Commissioner Adams, Commissioner <br /> Solari, and Commissioner Zorc <br /> 13. COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS <br /> 13.A 17-0085 Amending the 2017 State Legislative Program to Include Legislation <br /> Relating to the Florida Building Commission to the County's List of <br /> Concerns <br /> Recommended Action: The County Attorney's Office recommends that the Board of County <br /> Commissioners amend the 2017 State Legislative Program to oppose any <br /> legislation which would change the Florida Building Code to negatively impact a <br /> local government's ability to receive federal emergency funding in the event there is <br /> a natural disaster. <br /> Attachments: Staff Report <br /> Proposed Committee Bill 7000 <br /> Assistant County Attorney Kate Pingolt Cotner spoke about proposed Senate Bill <br /> 7000,which is currently in the Florida Legislature,that would remove a <br /> requirement from the Florida Building Code. She voiced concerns about the <br /> negative impact it could have on local government, and the unintended <br /> consequences to Indian River County. She requested that the Board monitor and <br /> add this item to the County's List of Concerns. <br /> Building Official Scott McAdam provided background, and explained how the <br /> proposed Bill would not use the base of the "International Building Code",but <br /> rather the base of the 6th edition of the "Florida Building Code" for the foundation <br /> of development updates. He expressed his concerns over the proposal, and <br /> encouraged the Board to not support the change and to stay involved. <br /> County Administrator Jason Brown pointed out that staff was not trying to oppose <br /> the Bill,but ensure that it would not endanger the flood rating, Federal Emergency <br /> Management Agency(FEMA) funding, or the Insurance Service Office (ISO) <br /> ratings. He said the amendment to the 2017 State Legislative program will give <br /> staff the ability to make recommendations for improving the Bill. <br /> The Board sought further details from staff, and voiced their opinions about putting <br /> this item on a"heavy watch list". <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Adams, seconded by Chairman Flescher,to <br /> direct staff to add Senate Bill 7000 to the County's List of Concerns,and monitor its <br /> status as it moves through the legislative process,so it does not negatively impact <br /> Indian River County. The motion carried by the following vote: <br /> Indian River County Florida Page 8 <br />
