• • (CLERK'S NOTF• The presentation notebook entitled Indian River County Administration Complex Programming Document Final Document September 16, 2003, an important part of this presentation, is on file with the backup for this meeting.) Chairman Macht announced that this item was moved forward to be heard directly after the public hearings because of time constraints. (CLERK' S OTE • The Chairman reconvened the meeting at 11:46 a.m. following Item 9.A.2. with all members present except Commissioner Adams. Commissioner Adams was not present during this presentation and discussion but returned just as the Board voted.) General Services Director Tom Frame gave a brief review of how we got here as a result of the Space Needs Committee's research and recommendation. We now have verbal agreements with the City to obtain the needed property with two Attorneys working out the contract details. After the presentation, the Board will be asked to authorize the architect to proceed with the remaining portion of the contract, the design and construction. He asked Steve Blum to come forward to introduce the architectural team to make their presentation of the work thus far accomplished. New Administration Building Project Manager Steve Blum noted that the last several months have been a very interesting process. They have validated the findings of the Space Needs Committee; have gotten to know the department heads have interviewed, interviewed again, and reviewed and reviewed again. We think we now have a validated program about which we can be proud. This is the most important phase of the project and we look forward to the rest of the project and giving the County a very fine building. He introduced Tony Donadio, the prime architect, and Young Song, the associate architect whose film has taken the lead on this portion of the work and who will make the presentation.
