Commissioner Davis recalled last year the Frog Leg Festival Committee donated
about $45,000 to hire a project coordinator to restore the Old Fellsmere School and
he wanted to know if those funds were still available.
General Services Director Thomas W. Frame advised the funds are still in the
County, and they will remain there under their agreement with the City of Fellsmere. The
proposal before the Board today is to close out the grant and he explained it was easier for the
City of Fellsmere to take on the maintenance repairs and then to invoice the County.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler, the Board
unanimously approved the payment of invoices from
the City of Fellsmere to complete the air
conditioning and electrical work for the Old
Fellsmere School and grant funds to complete grant
requirements including any remaining match that
may be needed, as recommended in the
memorandum of June 1, 2005.

(CLERK’S NOTE: This item was pulled f discussion and was heard prior to Item
9.A. It is placed here for continuity.)
Commissioner Wheeler wanted to know how much space staff needed to lease and
for what period of time.
June 7, 2005 10
Administrator Baird explained the problem of renting office space is getting
expensive. He found the cheapest way to rent space was to lease back part of the
same building the County rents to the Treasure Coast Homeless Services Council
(TCHSC). The TCHSC has a 30-year lease with the County at $1 a year and they
have the right to sublease space to raise operating capital. Should the TCHSC lease
back space to the County, they are asking the County to pay $30,000 a year to cover
some of their operating expenses. Administrator Baird felt it was fair. He said they
are looking at a time period of two years.
Discussion ensued regarding the County’s cost of leasing space in a County
building.
Dick Stark
, Chairman of the Treasure Coast Homeless Services Council,
reviewed the Council’s activities and achievements, and their sources of funds. He
explained Martin County, St. Lucie County, and other entities are involved in their
operation and expenses. He did not believe any of them would be interested in
paying the additional expenses because they are not capable of subleasing space.
Vice Chairman Neuberger was agreeable to offsetting some of the operating cost,
but not all of it.
Chairman Lowther agreed with Vice Chairman Neuberger.
Management and Budget Director Jason Brown advised currently they are funding
the Council $25,000 dollars for 2005 and again in 2006.
June 7, 2005 11
MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman
Neuberger, SECONDED by Commissioner
Bowden, to approve the lease with the Treasure
Coast Homeless Services Council, as recommended
by staff in the memorandum of June 1, 2005.
Chairman Lowther commented that the motion includes $75,000 needed by staff
to renovate offices and he did not want to get into a blanket agreement. He was
concerned about the existing agreement with the Council allowing them to sublease
and expressed concern in taking that right away from them.
Commissioner Davis felt there was a lesson to learn from this and he wanted to
add to the language of future leases a caveat similar to that set forth in the Mountain
Bike Trail (Please see BCC minutes of 5-17-05), if necessary, to relieve this type of
burden on the Board.
Commissioner Wheeler had a problem with the concept of the County paying
$30,000 a year and he was looking for more cooperation from the Council.
Administrator Baird said he would renegotiate the lease with the Council and
bring it back.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
motion CARRIED. The Board unanimously
authorized Administrator Baird to move forward
June 7, 2005 12
with lease negotiations with the Treasure Coast
Homeless Services Council, Inc. (TCHSC) for space
at the old County Health Department building and
bring it back to the Broad within two weeks.

home community who have decided not to cost-share on the remaining 200 feet of
stockade fencing. The residents on the opposite side said they would cost-share the
remaining 200 feet. There was some discussion whereby staff explained that the

around the retention stormwater pond only.

John Williams
, 1635 Smugglers Cove, read a six-page letter (copy on file) stating
his opposition to the merger of the union contracts of the firefighters and the paramedics. He
handed out a study he completed (copy on file) regarding other firefighter contracts. He was
opposed to Chairman Lowther taking part in the firefighter negotiations or voting on their
contract because of a conflict of interest. He urged the Board to review his study and to
consider privatization.
NO ACTION TAKEN OR REQUIRED.
9.B.4. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – REQUEST FROM SHAWN SMITH,
SUPER DIP CAFÉ REGARDING PAYMENTS FOR FOOD

June 7, 2005 19
th
Shawn Smith
, Super Dip Café owner, 1840 25 Street, who provided meals from
September 2, 2004 through September 10, 2004 during Hurricane Frances, came to the Board
in request for payment for his food bill. He updated the Board, giving a history of events that
occurred since the storm, informing them that this was his second time coming to the Board.
Administrator Baird stated this was a civil matter. He explained the first storm
invoice was $140,000 and the second storm invoice was $85,000. He felt there was a
discrepancy in the billed amount because of the great difference in totals. Mr. Smith was paid
the $85,000, and he received a partial payment for the $140,000 invoice.
Discussion continued regarding previous negotiations between Mr. Smith and
Administrator Baird and requests from Management and Budget Director Jason Brown to Mr.
Smith to provide additional information regarding his invoice.
Attorney Collins advised the Board to hire a mediator as a less expensive
alternative to going to court.
Mr. Smith
said he was showing the Board his paperwork to avoid going to
mediation.
Commissioner Wheeler agreed with Attorney Collins’ suggestion and felt the
County should pay for the mediator.
Chairman Lowther recalled the first hurricane before there was a voucher system
for food stuff was in place. He commented that this was not discussed at the hurricane
workshop.
Discussion ensued on how the County would bill FEMA for these costs.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler,
SECONDED by Chairman Lowther for discussion,
to authorize the County Attorney to hire a mediator.
Discussion ensured regarding placing a cap on the cost of a mediator and who
would be responsible for it.
June 7, 2005 20
Commissioner Wheeler felt the County is responsible for not having a procedure
in place.
Administrator Baird stated that the County did have a voucher system in place by
the time of Hurricane Jeanne.
Vice Chairman Neuberger was in favor of hiring a mediator.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and the
motion CARRIED unanimously. The Board
authorized the County Attorney to hire a mediator to
work out an amount to be paid agreeable with both
parties.

12.A. REQUEST FROM JOSEPH PALADIN TO DISCUSS
REQUIRED 25 FEET A OR B BUFFER YARDS BETWEEN
NEW SUBDIVISIONS ZONED RS-2, RS03, RS-6, OR RT-6 AND
ADJACENT SINGLE FAMILY ZONED PROPERTY (MOVED
FROM ITEM 9.B.2)
Joseph Paladin
, 730 Commerce Drive, Sebastian, discussed the pending
ordinance doctrine which has a significant impact on small parcels and single-family residents.
He wanted to pull the ordinance until the Growth Awareness Committee can incorporate the
ideas of the Landscape Advisory Committee (LAC), the Audubon Society and the Professional
Services Advisory Committee (PSAC). Later in the meeting staff confirmed the ordinance has
a significant impact on small parcels and asked the Board not to adopt the pending ordinance as
is.
Attorney Collins clarified the intent of this request is to delay enforcing the
ordinance until the committees have an opportunity to work on the language to accommodate
small parcels and single-family subdivisions.
June 7, 2005 28
Commissioner Bowden was concerned with the time involved in making changes
and the necessity of having this ordinance in place now.
Commissioner Davis did not want to pull the ordinance if it would affect the
Kennedy property. Rezoning that property was voted upon with the understanding that the
provisions of the ordinance would apply to that rezoning.
The Chairman told Mr. Paladin that the ordinance would remain as is and directed
Mr. Paladin to continue working with the Landscape Advisory Committee (LAC) on the
language regarding small parcels and single-family subdivisions and bring it back for a public
hearing.
Dr. Richard Baker
addressed implementing native plant requirements which the
Audubon Society would like to see used in buffers, but he did not want to stop the process on
the setbacks.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler,
SECONDED by Commissioner Bowden, for
discussion, to leave the pending ordinance doctrine
in place, as is.
Commissioner Wheeler did not feel it was fair to the public to change the
ordinance and felt that should be discussed at a public hearing.
Vice Chairman Neuberger had not taken the small subdivisions into consideration
before and he did not see a problem with placing the ordinance on hold to reword it.
Andy Boler
, Indian River Habitat for Humanity, commented that small
subdivision lots should be kept for affordable housing.
Commissioner Wheeler expressed an interest in seeing the Growth Awareness
Committee (GAC) come up with a definition of an affordable house by Habitat for Humanity.
He would like to see a special ordinance that would apply specifically to low cost housing in
order to direct these issues toward that particular type of development.
June 7, 2005 29
Joseph Paladin
advised that he just formed a new committee to address
affordable housing.
Discussion continued and Commissioners Wheeler and Bowden both felt this
discussion should be held at a public hearing.
th
Lee Bernstein
, property owner on 66 Street, said he does not have a problem
with the 25’ buffers, but he found that he could not subdivide his property with the ordinance
as it is written.
Discussion ensued regarding options for developing Mr. Bernstein’s property.
Mr. Christian
said nothing should be done without a public hearing. He
suggested the option of a variance rather than tossing out the ordinance.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
Motion CARRIED, by a 4-1 vote, Vice Chairman
Neuberger opposed. The Board approved leaving
the pending ordinance doctrine in place, as is.

ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler,
SECONDED by Commissioner Bowden, the Board
unanimously authorized applicants for Affidavit of
Exemption to have the option of hiring outside
counsel to review the application affidavit of
exemption and certify compliance with our codes as
well as that the metes and bounds descriptions
conform to the sketches, prior to the preparation of
