F. Training - There were 4 training courses given to the Fire District. Three training sessions were primarily in the field of fire suppression and tactics. One training courses was I-220, the Incident Command System. The total number of students were 53. G. Division of Forestry Staffing = The Division of Forestry has one Forest Area Supervisor, one Urban/County Forester, four Forest Rangers, and one Fire Tower Lookout. H. Goals for F.Y. 94/95 - Our main goal is to continue to reduce our human caused fires. The use of the Incident Command System by the Division of Forestry and the Fire Department will help prepare us for an emergency or disaster if it should strike. The next year will be filled with challenges if fire predictions are correct. The continuing cooperation between the Division of Forestry and The Indian River Co. Fire District will help reduce the potential for the loss of life or property. In closing I would like to invite the county staff to call upon the Division if they need assistance with any forestry related subject. The Division of Forestry is committed to serve the citizens of Indian River County. A Traffic Impact Fee Allocation for I.R. Blvd., Phase III - Budget Amendment 024 The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/30/94: TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE: August 30, 1994 SUBJECT-* TRAFFIC IMPACT FEE ALLOCATION FOR INDIAN RIVER BOULEVARD PROJECT - PHASE III BUDGET AMENDMENT 024 - CONSENT AGENDA FROM: Joseph A. Baird OMB Director _ DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Under the County Traffic Impact Fee Ordinance adopted in 1985, a provision is included that states that projects which provide "capital expansion of bridge facilities and their access roads" connecting the barrier island to the mainland can be funded from all Traffic Impact Fee Districts based upon specified pereentages. Tun Davis, Public Works Director, through the attached memo, has requested that $2 million of the County costs for Phase III of the Indian River Boulevard project be funded from the Traffic Impact Fee Districts. The funding was originally provided through Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) District 5 and Fund 109 - Secondary Roads Construction Fund (i.e., Local Option and Constitutional Gas Tax). This agenda item is to request approval to reallocate the funding for a portion of the Phase III costs. This results in a reimbursement of $650,000 to the Secondary Roads Construction Fund and a reimbursement of $1,350,000 to TIF District 5. TIF District 5's final share of the funding would be $200,000. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the request for the reallocation of funding and the attached budget amendment reflecting the allocation. 5 BOOK 93 F-,�ct 168 September 6, 1994
