Board of County Commissioners <br />Meeting Minutes - Final June 20, 2017 <br />Dr. David Cox, representing Indian River Soil and Water Conservation District, <br />stated that this issue came up at the last Board of Supervisor's meeting, and <br />expressed his support for the County's position on the matter. He noted that he was <br />not comfortable with the adequacy of the application material that was submitted, <br />and expressed concern about the aerial drawing of the project. He stated that there <br />was a major pump station located on the property, and that it was omitted from the <br />drawing. He believed that there was adequate cause for concern about the potential <br />impacts to the water quality, and spoke in support of intervening with St. Lucie <br />County. <br />Carter Taylor, Indian River Neighborhood Association, spoke in support of <br />intervening with St. Lucie County's petition and expressed his concerns about the <br />environmental damage and potential hazards that the facility would bring to the <br />area. <br />Judy Orcutt, 4665 Pebble Bay South, expressed her concerns about material that <br />may be trucked in through Indian River County via Oslo Road, and expressed <br />concerns with potential spillage. She spoke in favor of intervening with St. Lucie <br />County. <br />Chairman Flescher expressed his concerns and supported the intervention with St. <br />Lucie County. He explained that the purpose was to provide an opportunity for <br />Indian River County to have a voice regarding this issue. <br />Commissioner Zorc echoed the comments of Ms. Orcutt on the entrance of Oslo <br />Road, and expressed concern about Oslo Road being an alternate route to the site. <br />He suggested that he would be in support of intervening with St. Lucie County. <br />County Administrator Jason Brown understood the Board's concerns, and added <br />that a joint meeting has been scheduled with the South Florida Water Management <br />District and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to discuss the <br />concerns about the stormwater retention, and ensured the Board that staff would <br />include St. Lucie County and work collaboratively with them regarding this issue. <br />A motion was made by Vice Chairman O'Bryan, seconded by Chairman Flescher, to <br />authorize the County Attorney's Office to file the appropriate paperwork to intervene <br />in the St. Lucie County Petition. The motion carried by the following vote: <br />Aye: 4 - Chairman Flescher, Vice Chairman O'Bryan, Commissioner Adams, and <br />Commissioner Zorc <br />Nay: 1 - Commissioner Solari <br />13.E. 17-0651 Code Enforcement Board Appointment <br />Recommended Action: The County Attorney recommends that the Board review the applicant's resume and <br />application, and determine whether to appoint him to fill the unexpired term for the <br />"Member at Large" representative to the Code Enforcement Board. <br />Indian River County Florida <br />Page 24 <br />
