Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final September 9, 2025 <br />The Chairman called for a recess at 1:20 pm and reconvened at 1:29 pm with all <br />members present. <br />Potable Water Sub -element. <br />There was no comment on the Potable Water Sub -element. <br />Solid Waste Sub -element <br />Commissioner Moss raised a concern regarding Policy 4.2, noting that the Solid <br />Waste Disposal District (S)VDD) was supposed to evaluate the need and level of <br />service required at the Customer Convenience Centers. However, the policy had <br />been marked as completed. She expressed uncertainty about whether it should have <br />been considered complete, particularly given the shift toward Universal Collection. <br />She questioned whether there would be a chance to revisit it. <br />Chairman Flescher responded that an assessment and evaluation had been conducted, <br />which is why it was marked as completed. He explained that a series of evaluations <br />regarding the Convenience Centers were reviewed. Six years prior, there had been <br />discussions about eliminating two out of the five centers, but ultimately, the centers <br />remained unchanged. He agreed that with the universal application, their usage would <br />be monitored. However, he firmly believed that the assessment was complete and that <br />changes had been implemented effectively for the Convenience Centers. <br />Utilities Director Sean Leiske noted that it was agreed not to consider the <br />Convenience Centers at this time. Still, this decision does not rule out revisiting the <br />issue in the future. In response to Commissioner Moss's viewpoint, he suggested that <br />the second sentence could be retained, indicating that the Board would continue to <br />evaluate the need for a certain level of service. Mr. Leiske believed the goal should be <br />achieved by 2030, approximately halfway through the contract. Chairman Flescher <br />agreed. <br />Mr. Sweeney stated that he would make the necessary edits and transmit the <br />information. He received confirmation regarding the changes being made: the policy <br />would remain completely intact except for the year. However, the first provision was <br />to be struck, and the focus would shift directly to the second provision. The revised <br />text would state that "the SWDD shall evaluate the need and level of service required <br />from the Customer Convenience Center". <br />Natural Ground Water Sub -element <br />Indian River County, Florida Page 24 <br />
