IDE TO THE OARD IMBERLY ASSUNG
Commissioner Wheeler stated he would approve the contract provided Section 9
were eliminated. He addressed his concern previously when the other employee contracts were up
for approval and in all fairness he mentioned it again.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler to
approve the contract with the elimination of Section 9.
MOTION FAILED for lack of a second.
Commissioner Bowden was concerned that the evaluation process used was too
generic for the individual positions held by the contract employees. She wanted to readdress the
County Administrator, County Attorney and Executive Aide contracts. She stated that the salary
of the County Administrator was low compared to other county administrators and wanted the
percentage of increase readdressed.
CONSENSUS WAS REACHED for Commissioner
Bowden to devise an evaluation process for individual
positions under annual employment contracts, and place
on the agenda under Chairman’s items the County
Administrator’s salary at a later Board meeting.
July 12, 2005 7
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis, to
approve staff’s recommendation, SECONDED by
Chairman Lowther for discussion.
Discussion continued regarding the evaluation process and the origination of the
current employment contracts.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
MOTION PASSED, by a 4-1 vote, Commissioner
Wheeler opposed. (The Board approved renewal of the
annual employment agreement for Executive Aide to the
Board Kimberly Massung, as recommended in the
memorandum of July 5, 2005.)

9.B.1. PUBLIC DISCUSSION - ALFRED C. BALDWIN - REQUEST
TO SPEAK REGARDING SWALE ISSUE AT LINDSEY LANES
th
Alfred C. Baldwin
, 4740 47 Court, brought photographs of his development to
display the standing water and serious health problem caused by the daily sprinkler system
flooding in the swale at Lindsey Lanes. Apparently the homeowners have not been able to get
anyone to take on the responsibility of solving the problem and he asked the Board to take action.
This problem has been going on for three or four years.
County Attorney Collins stated it needs to be determined if this is the
responsibility of the County. He advised if it is a public dedicated drainage easement, which is
rare, then the County would be responsible.
Mr. Baldwin
was positive that the property is in the right-of-way.
Discussion ensued regarding the difference between Phases I, II and III.
July 12, 2005 21
Chairman Lowther directed Mr. Baldwin to get together with Attorney Collins and
staff to find a solution.
9.B.2. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – EUGENE PERNA – REQUEST TO
SPEAK REGARDING DRAINAGE AND FLOODING ON
FLORA LANE
Eugene Perna
, 1900 Flora Lane, came to the Board to continue his public
th
discussion from the June 14Board meeting where he declared drainage and flooding problems in
his neighborhood since the construction of a new house. He asked what precautionary measures
could be enforced to prevent this type of situation from occurring in the future. Staff has
encouraged the residents on Flora Lane to make improvements by putting in an underground
system and pave the road. However, the lower lots built in the fifties, such as Mr. Perna’s home,
may still be flooded.
Discussion ensued. The Board learned that after the County had reviewed the
drainage system, the Health Department had recommended the owner raise the house to meet the
septic tank requirement. A citation had been issued two years ago to the owner for the impediment
of the drainage system on private property, but no action had been taken.
Chairman Lowther felt the problems are multiple and if the homes are not in
compliance with code then they should be razed.
Commissioner Neuberger agreed and in the future he wanted staff to guard more
closely for possible drainage problems. He also wanted assurance that the owner who was cited is
abiding by the ordinance.
Chairman Lowther asked Attorney Collins to determine why the problem still
exists if the homeowner was cited two years ago, and he asked Mr. Perna to confer with County
Administrator Joe Baird to come up with a solution.
July 12, 2005 22
(CLERK’S NOTE: The Chairman called for a recess at 7:21 p.m. and he reconvened the meeting
at 7:30 p.m. with all members present.)
9.B.3. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – GEORGE RACICOT – REQUEST TO
SPEAK REGARDING ELECTRICAL COMPLAINT AT
LAKEWOOD VILLAGE MOBILE HOME PARK
George Racicot was not present.
9.B.4. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – MARK BRACKETT – REQUEST TO
TH
SPEAK REGARDING SIDEWALK FOR 16 STREET
ADJACENT TO OLD SAVANNAH
Mark Brackett
wanted to write a check for the cost to the County to construct the
sidewalk adjacent to Old Savannah subdivision. He did not see enough land provided for the route
and believed the task to acquire the land would be mountainous. He also was concerned with the
liability. Staff admitted that they could put in the sidewalk improvements at a later date, but they
were concerned with the funds sitting in their account and felt the sidewalk improvements would
take time away from other important projects scheduled.
Chairman Lowther agreed with staff and he did not want to place an additional
burden upon them. He told Mr. Brackett he was responsible for the improvements.
9.B.5. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – RENNE HAMBLIN – REQUEST TO
SPEAK REGARDING DRAINAGE IN VERO HIGHLANDS
th
Renne Hamblin
, 608 20 Place SW, Vero Highlands, has resided for 17 years at
the same address and stated new construction has caused stormwater to drain onto her property and
her neighbor’s. She displayed a photograph of her neighbor’s flooded backyard. She said the
developer was not required to put in a sewer system and this problem has existed for two years.
July 12, 2005 23
The Chairman asked County Administrator Baird to look into the situation and a
solution.
9.B.6. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – BRIAN HEADY – REQUEST TO
SPEAK REGARDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND
COUNTY - OWNED OFFICE SPACE
Brian Heady,
Oakmont Park Estates, spoke on affordable housing and stated he
did not know that Mr. Paladin and Ed White were speaking on the same subject. He asked the
Board to employ a person full-time to head the affordable housing task force. He also wanted to
see the County use their current office building as a shelter for future hurricanes once they move
into the new administration building. He commented on the employee contract changes and stated
“if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.”
9.B.7. PUBLIC DISCUSSION – DAVID S. KNIGHT, P.E. – REQUEST
TO SPEAK REGARDING DEVONWOOD LAKES, PALADIN
HAMMOCK, PIECES OF EIGHT, BEACH COVE MHP,
BUCANEER COVE, RAVENEL, MCKINLEY, ABACOA
David Knight
, Knight, McGuire & Associates, Inc., was able to redesigned this
development to meet the requirements of the pending ordinance doctrine. He came to the Board
asking for special consideration for 7 other applicants: Paladin Hammock, Pieces of Eight, Beach
Cove MHP; Bucaneer Cove, Ravenel, McKinley, Abacoa, all under review prior to the
implementation of the new ordinances.
Staff asked for direction from the Board on how to handle 7 additional applicants
that were significantly burdened by trying to meet the new requirements. They either went
through the Technical Review Committee (TRC) or were scheduled for TRC review. These
July 12, 2005 24
applicants did not complete a traffic study or submit a concurrency certificate. This was an issue
that staff did not previously consider.
Discussion continued regarding substantially complete applications and being
allowed to proceed under the old ordinance.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED by
Commissioner Neuberger, the Board unanimously
authorized staff to ignore the requirements of the pending
ordinance doctrine and accept applications that are
substantially complete.
(Clerk’s Note: The Chairman called for a recess at 9:40 p.m. and he reconvened
the meeting at 9:45 p.m. with all members present.)

granted authorization to initiate a bid package that would

communications tower not to exceed 80 feet disguised as
a flagpole and an associated ground lease on a selected
site at the Sea Oaks WasteWater Treatment Facility.

50% split of rents from co-locators. In addition to the
minimum economic requirements, staff recommended
conditions be included within the scope of the bid and
contract as specified in the memorandum dated June 22,
2005.
11.I.1 PUBLIC WORKS – REQUEST FOR PUBLIC HEARING - 5
TH
ADDITIONAL CENTS LOCAL OPTION GAS TAX AND 9
CENT GAS TAX OF 1 CENT (6 CENTS ADDITIONAL TAX
LEVY)
Public Works Director Jim Davis stated because of the rising costs of road
material, asphalt and concrete he was asking the Board to approve setting a public hearing to
consider a levy of an additional 1-6 cent increase to the gas tax. There are road projects that need
improvement for which staff is not allowed to use impact fee monies. Staff wants to try and get as
much money to help complete the road projects as quickly as possible.
There was concern whether the timing is right, but the County Attorney advised
the change cannot be imposed until July 2006.
Discussion ensued regarding why gas is cheaper outside of Vero Beach.
Tim Zorc
, President of the Treasure Coast Builder’s Association, spoke in favor
th
of the 9 cent. He also asked the Board not to have night meetings because they did not fare well
at home.
Commissioner Wheeler requested that public hearings be held during the day.
Chairman Lowther personally was not in favor of increasing the gas tax but he
wanted to get public input.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED
by Commissioner Bowden, the Board unanimously
July 12, 2005 27
approved to prepare an ordinance and advertise for a
public hearing to consider the levy of an additional local
option fuel tax by 1-6 cents, as recommended in the
memorandum of June 21, 2005. (Alternative No. 1)
