Attorney Reingold revealed that there would be hurdles to overcome if the Board wishes <br />to adopt a more stringent ordinance. He said that based on the Comprehensive Plan, the Board <br />must demonstrate with documents, that relevant and scientific information has been considered <br />and made part of the public record. He told the Commissioners that if they feel they have met <br />the analysis, they could move forward with the draft ordinance today, and revisit it later if <br />necessary. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan wanted to know if the information received today, along with the <br />public testimony, which is part of the public record, would meet the required criteria to move <br />forward. <br />Attorney Reingold disclosed that Florida Legislation requires the Board to document <br />before adopting the ordinance, and believed that the scientific information heard today may <br />constitute enough documentation to move forward with something more stringent. <br />Chairman Flescher felt there was sufficient scientific data presented for the proposed <br />modifications, but not for the blackout period. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari <br />SECONDED by Chairman Flescher to: (1) move forward <br />with the Model Ordinance, and (2) add the three proposed <br />modifications (a) applying no phosphorus without soil <br />testing; (b) maintaining a 10 -foot restnction from all water <br />bodies; and (c) requiring fertilizer to contain at least 50% <br />slow release nitrogen. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan wanted to know if Commissioner Solari's intention was to bring <br />the blackout period back at a later time. He asked Commissioner Solari if he would amend his <br />Motion to direct the Administrator to fund the appropriate enforcement position as outlined in <br />Special Call Meeting <br />July 18, 2013 7 <br />8K 144 PG 154 <br />
