funding.
Discussion ensued on Fire/EMS stations.
Commissioner Wheeler felt the Fire/EMS stations should be completed before the
addition to the Jail is started.
County Administrator Joseph Baird pointed out page 206 of the backup, which
gave an estimate of the start of construction of the new Fire/EMS stations. He also explained the
reasons for the deferment and assured the stations are a priority.
Discussion ensued on the various stations in Indian River County and making
public safety a priority. County Administrator Baird stated he could move construction of Station
12 forward if the Board wished and Public Works Director Jim Davis gave an update on road
and bridge projects.
The Chairman opened the public hearing.
Guy Barber
, Vero Beach, questioned the price fluctuations on the County
Administration Building over the past years. He stated the last priority should be the County

October 11, 2005 17
Administrator Baird explained that the Supervisor of Elections Office requires
special accommodations for the computerized voting machines and that is why their offices have
been separated.
Frank Coffe
, 1200 Admirals Walk, felt the priorities of the Board were wrong and
that even before the hurricanes of 2004 the Fire Stations were in horrible condition. He also gave
the history of the County Administration Building.
th
Alfred Ballwin
, 4740 47 Court, received clarification that the County does not
have the jurisdiction to levy the local option sales tax more than one cent.

, Coral Wind Subdivision, does not see where it would be a
significant impact to return the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) grant monies and return to
housing the EOC at the main administration building.
The Chairman closed the public hearing.

Commissioner Bowden, the Board unanimously approved
(by a 4-1 vote Commissioner Wheeler opposed) Revised

9.B.1. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – GUY BARBER SPOKE IN PLACE OF
BRIAN T. HEADY REGARDING RECENT SCHOOL LAND
October 11, 2005 18
PURCHASE AND POTENTIAL EXPANSION OF THE URBAN
SERVICE AREA (USA)
Guy Barber
, Vero Beach, gave a history of a recent School Board Meeting where
th
they decided to buy 152 acres on 66 Avenue. He explained the School Board plans to buy the
land with borrowed monies and that the 152 acres will receive Urban Services. Urban Services
placed on that 152 acres will not be owned by the School Board but by the company the School
Board borrowed the money from. Once Urban Services are in place how will the County stop the
lease owner from letting parcels of the land go to a Developer.
Commissioner Davis stated the School Board does not have the authority to zone
and expand the Urban Services Area.
Commissioner Wheeler stated that when utilities are placed on the property the
pressure would be very great to use the property for residential use.
NO ACTION REQUIRED OR TAKEN.

Reeseman (Press Journal) stating there will be a video available regarding the Adams Ranch
Rural Lands Stewardship and towns, villages and countryside concept. Mr. Baird would like
direction regarding airing this meeting on the County’s television channel.

by Commissioner Bowden, the Board approved (by a 4-0

done prematurely.

3-1 Commissioner Wheeler opposed and Vice Chairman

LANE DEVELOPMENT GROUP, LLC
A MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler to
approve staff’s recommendations, SECONDED by
Chairman Lowther for discussion.
October 11, 2005 22
th
Public Works Director Jim Davis explained that the extent of the four-laning 27
th
Avenue from Oslo to 13 Street SW would provide enough capacity on the link for this
development to go ahead.
Commissioner Davis expressed his concerns with having roads in place in order to
meet capacity and concurrency before building the development.
County Administrator Joseph Baird felt the requirements are fair and the Board
should stay with the decision that was made at the previous meeting regarding road concurrency
and capacity.
Commissioner Davis clarified that when the County does require the developer to
build the road, that developer should be able to purchase the capacity that they are building.
Jeff Blackstone
, Brackett and Company, was concerned with not being able to
purchase the use of the improvements after they have been put into place. Mr. Blackstone
requested this item be tabled.
th
Public Works Director Jim Davis pointed out that, contingent on the 27 Street
widening project being approved, the developer could apply for traffic impact fee credits.
Joseph Paladin
, Chairman of the Growth Awareness Committee, felt it was
inappropriate to talk about changing the ordinance today before being made aware of the
repercussions.
Commissioner Davis WITHDREW his motion AND
Chairman Lowther WITHDREW his second.

by Chairman Lowther, the Board unanimously approved
October 11, 2005 23

the School Board is exempt from.

Director of Utilities Eric Olson explained the County is charging the School Board
a quarter of a million dollars for all aspects of the cost that would be associated with the
proportionate share of the Master Plan Line to get to this point.

front the money. He felt the entire County should have to share in the cost.

12. COUNTY ATTORNEY – HERON CAY DRAINAGE STATUS
REPORT
County Attorney William Collins gave the history of the Heron Cay issue
including previous investigations and steps made to try to resolve the issue. He stated the issue
has gone to court and the judge decided that the Code Enforcement Board is to decide whether
there are any violations and who is responsible for them. Once the Code Enforcement Board has
ruled it will go back to court as a civil suit and the judge will decide on all of the legal issues.
Attorney Collins suggested surveying a quarter of the properties cited to have severe problems
and notifying all of the residents of Heron Cay that there will be a Code Enforcement hearing.
Commissioner Wheeler felt this is also a health and welfare issue, not only for the
people in the mobile homes but for the surrounding residents also. He asserted if this was a
health and welfare issue it needs to be fixed.
County Attorney William Collins explained that because it is a health and welfare
issue there is a possibility that the residents may have to bear the expense of correcting the
problem and if the homes have to be moved to place fill in then it could cost up to ten thousand
dollars a unit.
Bob Toll
, 231 Bimini Cay Circle, reminded the Board of the judges decision and
stated that five percent of the homes should be surveyed to get a fair and accurate picture.
Gwendolyn Rip
, President of the Homeowner’s Association at Heron Cay was
concerned with the amount of surveys to be done. She stated that Heron Cay residents believe
October 11, 2005 25
the stormwater drainage system has not been maintained and that any damage to the tie-downs is
a result of the lack of maintenance of the stormwater system. Ms. Rip felt that the County should
first find out the problem before taking action.
Ed Cameron
, 467 Bimini Cay Circle, gave his educational and career background
in engineering and he felt an engineering firm should conduct the surveys not a surveying
agency.
Steve Magnavey
, 428 Bimini Cay Circle, explained that in every case the property
owner has thrown up roadblocks not the residents.
Discussion ensued on tie-down laws and the new installations at Heron Cay,
whether a surveyor or an engineer would be the best person to conduct the surveys, and what
needs to be done to get the water from accumulating under the homes.
Ms. Rip
, quoted from a letter Bob Keating wrote to the park owner and she stated
that the issue is avoiding water being under the homes to begin with.
On MOTION by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler the Board approved (by a vote of
4-0 Vice Chairman Neuberger absent) conducting
topographical surveys on 28 homes alleged to have severe
drainage problems and directed the County Attorney to
contact the park owner about participation in the cost of
the survey.
13.D.1 COMMISSIONER WESLEY S. DAVIS – SECURITY AT
COMMISSION MEETINGS
October 11, 2005 26
Commissioner Davis commented about security at County Commission meetings
with Sheriff Roy Raymond.
Sheriff Roy Raymond stated that a deputy could possibly be better used
somewhere beside a County Commission meeting. He asserted that an officer would be available
but only if the Board requested it.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously removed
(by a 4-0 vote Vice Chairman Neuberger absent) the
request to have a deputy present at the daytime County
Commission meetings unless requested by a Board
member.
