Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final May 7, 2024 <br />Sebastian City Council member Fred Jones understood the Board's position and <br />stated that the City of Sebastian, along with Vero Beach and Indian River Shores, <br />supported Option Il. He believed it would be the best overall for the County, <br />offering uniformity and reducing repeated efforts by all municipalities. <br />Commissioner Moss and Commissioner Earman reaffirmed their support for <br />Option II. <br />Further discussion ensued between Chairman Adams and staff as to whether it <br />would be beneficial for the Board to adopt a hybrid approach, engaging with the <br />consultant and directing them to collaborate with each municipality. This strategy <br />would combine the advantages of Option I and Option II, reducing staff's <br />workload while promoting a more unified and coordinated effort. Chairman <br />Adams felt it would be a win-win situation and would prevent each city from <br />having to manage its own contract. She suggested putting together a coordinated, <br />collaborative project that would take the onus off of County staff. This would give <br />the autonomy to the municipalities, but the County would be the direct driver for <br />the project. <br />Chairman Adams suggested amending the motion to move forward with the ALA <br />project and bring it back with the amended language for the Interlocal Agreement <br />as a proposed third option. Vice Chairman Flescher amended his motion, and <br />Commissioner Loar amended his second. <br />A motion was made by Vice Chairman Flescher, seconded by Commissioner <br />Loar, to move forward with the ALA project and bring it back with the <br />amended language for the Interlocal Agreement as the proposed third <br />option. The motion carried by the following vote: <br />Aye: 4 - Chairman Adams, Vice Chairman Flescher, Commissioner Moss, and <br />Commissioner Loar <br />Nay: 1 - Commissioner Earman <br />F.
