Commissioner Wheeler had questions and recommendations on the
proposed contracts and wanted to review the contracts item-by-item.
Chairman Lowther commented that each Commissioner was asked to
complete an evaluation. Three evaluations were completed and returned to him, therefore
he brought this item forward.
There was a CONSENSUS of the Board not to review
the contracts item-by-item.
March 29, 2005 7
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Vice Chairman Neuberger, to
approve Administrator Baird’s contract as written.
Under discussion, Commissioner Wheeler wanted to discuss the following
five areas that he felt should not be in the contracts:
Section 5 - Additional Benefits – “County shall pay all professional dues,
etc.” Commissioner Wheeler felt this was unnecessary and redundant.
Section 5 - Additional Benefits – “County shall also provide Long Term
Disability Insurance, etc.” Commissioner Wheeler felt this was something that shows
precedents and favoritism to the three (3) contract employees.
Section 7 - Terms – “90-day written notice in the event of non-renewal.”
Commissioner Wheeler questioned why they are giving a 90-day notice when they have a
severance package and questioned if it meant an increase to the severance package.
Section 9 - Severance – “County shall pay Administrator for each year of service,
not to exceed twelve (12) months, etc.” – Commissioner Wheeler felt 6 months was adequate.
Commissioner Bowden revealed her discomfort with the procedure of being asked
to evaluate employees just ninety (90) days after being elected to the Board and after a bad
hurricane season. She stated usually the new Chairman negotiates the contracts when he comes
aboard. She preferred to negotiate the contract and set a timeframe to do that and felt it was
inappropriate to pick the contract apart.
Chairman Lowther explained this was the only place they can discuss the contracts.
Attorney Collins explained that the 90-day requirements would not increase the
severance package.
March 29, 2005 8
Administrator Baird pointed out the only change to his existing contract is the 2.7%
salary increase.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
motion carried 3-2, Commissioner Bowden and
Wheeler opposed. (The Board approved the renewal
of the annual contract for County Administrator
Joseph A. Baird, as written.)
Commissioner Bowden felt both contracts should have the same percentage of
increase.
Commissioner Wheeler said he was not going to support the contract because to be
consistent the last paragraph should be applied to Attorney Collins and Executive Aide Kim
Massung’s contract.
Attorney Collins stated that he was happy with the way his contract is written and
he did not feel he needed additional benefits, and Commissioner Wheeler acknowledged his
statement.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED
by COMMISSIONER Lowther, the Board approved
renewal of the annual contract for County Attorney
Collins as written.

Caroline Ginn,
Former Chairman of the Commission 1135 Old Galleon
Lane,introduced herself as a long-term Board member and current President of the Care
and Pregnancy Center. She requested the Board appropriate the $24,000 raised from this
program to the Care and Pregnancy Center,and 70% of those funds she wanted in advance.
County Administrator Baird explained to her that it is setup as a reimbursement program
and advance disbursement would require Board approval.
Director of Management and Budget Jason Brown informed the Board that
$15,000 of the $24,000 have already been appropriated to Healthy Care Coalition for this
Mrs. Ginn
year. believed the Care and Pregnancy Center is the only organization in the
County that qualifies for this funding. She stated she will bring further information to staff
because she believed Healthy Care Coalition does not qualify for funding.
March 29, 2005 10
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler to
approve the funds to benefit the Care and Pregnancy
Center. The MOTION DIED for lack of a SECOND.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler for
discussion, to approve the audit and direct staff to
work with the Care and Pregnancy Center staff to
obtain funding from the Choose Life license plate
program.
Vice Chairman Neuberger reminded the Board that the agenda item is to approve
the audit.

for staff to assist the Care and Pregnancy Center to
apply and be considered for advanced funding from
the license plate program.

PUBLIC ROADS – TARGET PRACTICE ON SMALL
PARCELS
Sheriff Roy Raymond
requested an ordinance to cover two issues not provided for
in the Florida State Statutes (Section 7909) in the interest of public safety. One issue involves
inappropriate use of firearms on five acre parcels. He requested an ordinance restricting target
shooting to the County range or other approved range. He has asked for an Attorney General
ruling on this item.
Secondly, Sheriff Raymond addressed the need for an ordinance making it a
misdemeanor to operate a motorized vehicle that cannot be registered on public roads and that is
not exempted by other State Statutes.
March 29, 2005 17
MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman Neuberger,
SECONDED by Commissioner Bowden, to approve
the Sheriff’s recommendation.
Under discussion, Commissioner Wheeler posed questions regarding the intent of
the vehicle part of the ordinance.
Ed Taylor
State Attorney Generalexplained that the purpose of the ordinance is to
prohibit any not registered vehicle from being operated on a public road.
Chairman Lowther stated he would bring this item up at his meeting in Tallahassee
for further opinion.
ON MOTION by Vice Chairman Neuberger,
SECONDED by Commissioner Bowden, the Board
unanimously authorized the County Attorney to 1)
draft an ordinance prohibiting any unregistered
motorized vehicle from being operated on public roads
that is not exempted by other State Statutes; and 2)
authorized the County Attorney to draft an ordinance
to restrict the use of firearms for target shooting at an
approved shooting range, all as recommended in the
memorandum dated March 15, 2005.

TH
ACRES FROM PD TO RS-6 – 65 STREET WEST OF OLD
DIXIE HIGHWAY - SHIVA HOLDINGS LLC
(QUASI-JUDICIAL)
PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR HEARING IS ON FILE IN THE
OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD
Community Development Director Bob Keating used a PowerPoint application to
present this rezoning request. The Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) rejected the
applicant’s request to rezone this site to RS-6, instead voted 5-2 recommending rezoning the
property to RS-3. Upon approval by the Board to rezone to RS-6, the applicant will sign a
March 29, 2005 19
restrictive covenant limiting his development to RS-3. Mr. Keating gave a brief history of the site.
He gave an indication of what surrounds the subject property. He reviewed the criteria and said
there is sufficient capacity and it is consistent with the Comp Plan. Staff feels, especially with the
restrictive covenant, that this rezoning is compatible with the surrounding area. In conclusion, Mr.
Keating stated staff supports the Board approving the rezoning request from PD to RS-6 and with
approval there will be a restrictive covenant.
th
Discussion began with traffic concerns on 56 Street and the proposed
improvements. Commissioner Wheeler believed staff has been evaluating their transportation
plan incorrectly.
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard
regarding this matter.
Bruce Barkett
, Attorney, used Director Keating’s slide illustrating the zoning
prior to the PD approval request that was RS-6. Because of the Lateral “G” Canal and the
restrictions placed on the property, it not only limits the units per acre, it limits the lot size, and he
wanted to point out that his applicant is only asking that the rezoning be restored to the zoning it
had before it failed PD.
Robert Johnson,
Coral Wind Subdivision, felt the Board should be more
consistent and approve the site as an RS-3.
Renee Renzi
, 301 Waverly Place, hoped the Board would revert to the way things
were handled previous to 1982 when she felt the Commission had more control considering
rezoning as a whole instead of individually.
There being no additional speakers, the Chairman closed the public hearing.
March 29, 2005 20
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler to
rezone this property to RS–3. There was no second
and the MOTION FAILED.
MOTION WAS MADE BY Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Chairman Lowther, to approve staff’s
recommendation.
Under discussion, Commissioner Wheeler pointed out that a rezoning to RS-6 was
not in compliance with the surrounding area and he felt they would be setting a precedent by
approving this request with a restrictive covenant.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
motion carried by a 3-2 vote, Commissioner Wheeler
and Commissioner Bowden opposed. (The Board
adopted Ordinance 2005-008 amending the zoning
ordinance and the accompanying zoning map for
th
23.6 acres located south of 65 Street and
approximately 3,230 feet west of Old Dixie Highway
from PD, Planned Development to RS-6, single-family

Planning Director Stan Boling displayed a geographical layout of the site. Unlike
the previous rezoning this has a site plan with it that is part of the proposal. The P&Z Committee
voted 5-2 recommending the Board approve the PD with modified conditions incorporated into
staff’s recommendation. He highlighted the landscaping and buffering with the overall project and
reviewed the conditions as in the memorandum. He pointed out, in addition to those conditions,
the applicant has agreed not to build any two-story homes along the southern border of the project
site.
There was a question and answer period regarding the single access and traffic.
The Chairman opened the public hearing.
Steve Doyle
Assistant Director of Utilitiesexpressed concern with the noise from
heavy equipment traffic and he did not see an indication of a buffer where the system transfer
station is located. He said a wall would be acceptable as suggested by Commissioner Wheeler.
Joseph Schulke
, Shulke, Bittle, and Stoddard, addressed some issues mentioned
by Commissioner Lowther and stated the client created wider lots and 10 foot setbacks because he
was concerned with density. The provision for the emergency access was to have limited traffic in
th
the environmental area. Designing dual access lanes and 150 foot setback from 65 Street was to
alleviate any traffic problems. In response to Steve Doyle’s concern regarding the transfer station,
they designed buffers to prevent noise being a problem.
March 29, 2005 22
Joseph Paladin
, Atlantic Coast Construction, addressed the Board in support of
this item.
Chuck Mechling
, 1999 Pointe West Drive, addressed the Board in support of this
item.
Jerry Swanson
, 3001 Ocean Drive, addressed the Board in support of this item.
th
Charles Block,
5195 St. Phillips Island Lane, and a property owner on 65 Street,
addressed the Board in support of this item.
Bob Johnson,
Coral Wind Subdivision, questioned the water supply for this
project. Director Boling responded that Utility Services was part of the Technical Review process
and they had no concerns.
Mr. Schulke
requested an amendment to 3.C. regarding the two-story house
setbacks as defined in the memorandum. He wanted to design a “wedding cake effect” and
presented a sketch of his design.
There being no additional speakers the Chairman closed the public hearing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler,
SECONDED by Vice Chairman Neuberger, the Board
unanimously adopted Ordinance 2005-009 amending
the zoning ordinance and the accompanying zoning
map from PD, recreational/commercial, to PD,
residential, and approved the conceptual plan for
approximately 160.90 acres of land generally located
th
on the south side 65 Street, just west of the FEC
th
railroad at 3745 65 Street providing for an effective
date and including conditions listed on page 262 of the
backup with modification to 3.C. on two story house
setbacks.

9.B.1. PUBLIC DISCUSSION ITEM – REQUEST TO SPEAK FROM
SANDY SEESE REGARDING REPLACEMENT OF MOBILE
HOME THAT WAS DESTROYED DUE TO HURRICANES
FRANCES AND JEANNE
th
Sandy Seese,
8435 96 Court, accompanied by her mother, Alexa, requested the
Board to assist her in acquiring a building permit to replace her mobile home that was destroyed
due to Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne in September 2004. They have lived on approximately 20
acres of agricultural property since 1969. The Building Department’s staff has told her if 50% or
more of her home was destroyed she had to replace it with the same square footage that was there
before. The damaged home was a single-wide mobile home 12’ X 28’, but that size is no longer
available. Ms. Seese ordered a double-wide mobile home.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis to
grant Sandy Seese an exception allowing her to obtain
a building permit to replace her single-wide mobile
home with a double-wide mobile home, SECONDED
by Chairman Lowther for discussion.
After a brief discussion the Board asked Attorney Collins to read the FSS 904-71
for the record, “shall be modified to allow replacement on or in the location of the original
foundation.”
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
motion carried.
March 29, 2005 24
Chairman Lowther called for a brief recess at 12:03 p.m. and the he reconvened the
meeting at 12:08 p.m. with all members present.

Planning Director Stan Boling displayed an aerial view of the site. This
th
right-of-way is a “paper street” lying between 134th Street (Brevard Street) and 135 Street
(Wauregan Avenue). This request would not be intended for use of general traffic circulation but it
would allow drainage, driveway and pedestrian access and will limit the use of the right-of-way
and reduce the building setback requirement along Mr. Cooney’s 80-foot frontage and along the
th
frontage of the adjacent property on the other side of 80 Court.
