As 'per our phone conversation of 11/10/83, I am requesting that the following -concerns be placed on the County Commission Agenda for a regul'ar meeting held before December 29, 1983. The Humane Society will need to request an e;tension on the Sales Contract closing date, as we will not have completed all the contingencies of Paragraph 9, Specia] Clause. The Society will not have received site plan approval by the date agreed to and the site plan process cannot be pursued until we have finalized the leasing agreement on the parking area,.which is in process. I Also, we would like -to request to have the east property line of, -the proposed Site extended to a point to be determined by survey. Presently, we are having the area between the Site's east property line and the County's parking lot surveyed for this purpose. This extension will enable us to provide better access from the parking area to the facility. He%w 13rach4m.

C. IRC #192, Replacement Refractory Tiles for Air Curtain Destructor at Landfill The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/22/83: TO: Board of County Commissioners DATE: December 22, 1983 FILE: THRU: Michael Wright SUBJECT: IRC Bid #192 - Replacement County Administrator Refractory Tiles for Air Curtain Destructor for the Landfill Dept. GE RAL SERVICES DIVISION FROM: REFERENCES: Carolyni800drich, Manager Purchasing Department 1. Description and Conditions: The air curtain destructor at the Landfill failed the August emission testing. The refractory tiles will have to be replaced. A proposal was received in September from the manufacturer of the air curtain destructor (Kutrieb, Inc.) for replacement tiles in the amount $25,947.60 plus freight. Bid Proposals were sent out to 7 vendors in November. Bids were received at 11:00 A.M. Dec. 20, 1983. No bids were submitted. 2.. Alternatives and Analysis:, Based on information received from Kutrieb, they are the only manufacturer of replacement tiles for their air curtain destructor. We have spoken with Don Caines at Kutrieb, the price quoted in September is good until January 31, 1984. There will then be a 10% price increase. 3. Recommendation and Funding: Staff recommends the replacement tiles be purchased from Kutrieb, Inc. Total cost $25,947.60 plus freight. Funds to come from Renewal & Replacement. 13 r 'r' M Purchasing Director Carolyn Goodrich explained that the reason for replacement was not that the tiles had been dropped or broken. Because of the constant expansion and contraction caused by the extreme heat, the tiles shrink, resulting in leakage which in turn causes the Landfill to fail the emissions test. The Commissioners discussed the cost of replacing these tiles so often, and wondered if.this operation was going to be cost effective in the future. They asked if it was a maintenance concern and Rex Hailey, Landfill_Manager, felt that the tiles would not have to be replaced as often in the future because the County would not be burning as heavily as they have been, since land clearance has dropped off to some extent. He noted that two years of rough material had been stockpiled requiring the constant use of the air curtain destructor. Chairman Scurlock asked if there is some other alternative to spending approximately $25,000 every two years. Administrator Wright advised that the tiles are almost three years old putting the monthly cost at $750, which he felt was not excessive when you-ponsider the extension of the life of the landfill. Utilities Director Terry Pinto explained the technical aspects of the refractory tiles. He advised that the next phase at the landfill is going to be lime and it would be cost prohibitive to place heavy, rough material, such as old tree trunks, into a lime landfill. Chairman Scurlock felt it was a shame to put clean fill into the landfill and that there should be some sort of separation process somewhere along the line to extend the life of the landfill. He realized it would be a problem but felt that it could be done through an educational process. 14 JAN 4 1984 8K tact 70 J r JAN 4 1984 9oK 55 ?AC(75i Commissioner Bird asked that in this case where we cannot get competitive bids because of the nature of the product, if we could check with other counties which might have purchased a similar product. C. B. Hardin, Assistant to the County Administrator, reported that they have contacted everyone, and Kutrieb, Inc. is the only supplier available. ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously awarded IRC Bid #192, in the amount of -$25,947.60 plus freight, to Kutrieb, Inc: for the purchase of replacement tiles for the air curtain destructor at the landfill, as recommended by Purchasing Manager Goodrich. BUDGET OFFICE `A. Budget Amendment - Special Law Enforcement Fund The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/15/83: TO To the Honorable Members of DATE: December 15, 1983 FILE: the Board of County Commissioners DEC x`'&3 w, SUBJECT: Special Law Enforcement Fund co 80aRO CQUNr C0*V1SS10NE1ZS 1 �eG �� - --*,6L Lt, FROM: Jeffrey K. Barton, Director REFERENCES: Office of Management and Budget The following budget amendment is to allocate the revenues and expenses for the purchase of a truck, radar units and hand-held radios from the Sheriff's seizure fund per your approval at the November 2, 1983 meeting: Account Title Account No. Confiscated Property 112-000-351-20.00 Automotive 112-600-521-66.42 Other Mach & Equip 112-600-521-66.49 Reserve for Contingencies 112-600-581-99.91 Reserve for Contingencies 112-600-581-99.91 Balance in Reserve $27,021 15 Increase Decrease 60,000 10,000 59,000 10,000 1,000 OMB Director Barton explained that in the meeting of November 2, 1983, the Board approved in concept the Sheriff's proposal to purchase the above items. The Budget Dept. received a check for $60,000 of confiscated property which was unanticipated revenue. This budget amendment is necessary to receive the money as a non -budgeted item and to appropriate it to the proper line items. Chairman Scurlock asked if we have been receiving the quarterly audit reports from the Sheriff's Department, and Director Barton confirmed we have not received any audits in the last two years. ON MOTION by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, the Board unanimously authorized the Chairman to write and formally request the Sheriff's Dept. to provide quarterly audit reports on confiscated property. MOTION WAS,MADE by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, that the Board approve the above budget amendment, as recommended by OMB Director Barton. Under discussion, Director Barton explained the decrease in .reserve for contingencies fund is due to the Sheriff purchasing $69,000 worth of articles and having only $60,000 to turn over at this point. What is needed now is for the Board to appropriate an additional $9,000 out of the reserve contingency fund within the confiscated property account. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously.

Relief Canal FROM: James W. Davis, P.E. ' REFERENCES: Public works Director . DESCRIPTION AMID CONDITIONS 10th Court and 11th Avenue have required additional asphalt to be applied. The additional cost for this extra asphalt with the previous cost data is: Preliminary Cost/FF Cost -Before Extra Asphalt/FF Additional Assessment Cost/FF 10th Court $8.012 $6.4794 $ .7215 11th Avenue $5.655 $3.7686 $ .7190 11 Preliminary Estimate Before Extra Asphalt Additional Cost of Asphalt 10th Court $26,169.25 $21,119.46 . $4,713.06 11th Avenue $26,365.20 $10,119.07 $3,970.10 It is requested that an additional assessment to the property owners be levied of approximately $.72 -per Front footage. This would result in an additional assessment of approximately $50 per lot. This additional assessment is approximately 500 of the original additional assessment of $1.41 per foot considered during the November 16, 1983 meeting of the Board of County Commissioners. All construction costs are under the original estimates. The Additional Final Assessment Rolls have been prepared and are ready to be delivered to the Clerk to the Board. Assessments are to be paid within 90 days or in two equal installments, the first to be made twelve months from the due date and the second to be made twenty-four months from the due date at the rate of interest established by the Board of County Commissioners. The due date is 90 days after the final determination of the special assessment. The interest rate shall be 12% per annum. ALTEEMUIVE AND ANALYSIS Since the final assessment to thebenefited owners will be less than computed on the preliminary assessment rolls, the only alternative presented is to approve the final assessment rolls. 1VV-00,U1415k4I�G �\ dll� 31 I►I� 6 It is recommended that the Additional Final Assessment Rolls for the paving of 10th Court and 11th Avenue be approved by the Board of County Commissioners and that they be transmitted to the Office of the Clerk to the Board for collection. 17 Administrator Wright noted that this matter had been tabled from an earlier meeting and explained that when the road was originally asphalted, it was put in too thin, and when the contractor came back, he put the asphalt down too thick. Rather than passing along the entire cost of the too -thick asphalt, Public Works Direotor Jim Davis has negotiated to split the difference. Attorney Brandenburg advised that the only alternative to holding a public hearing to'adopt an amended final assessment roll for recertification to the Tax Collector, would be to absorb the cost from the overall road fund. Chairman Scurlock tended to support the concept of absorbing the cost in that he believed increasing the assessment would have a negative impact on the petition paving program and people might question further assessments. Director Davis stated this cost is.still under the preliminary assessment by as much as $1.00 a front foot on one project and as much as $1.25 on the other project. Chairman Scurlock stated that the bottom line is that the people will be paying substantially less than what they were told during the public hearing- ON-MOTION earing. ONMOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously authorized staff to set up a public hearing on this matter. ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION AMENDING RESOLUTION 82-118, CONCEALED WEAPONS PERMIT RENEWAL APPLICATION FEE Attorney Brandenburg explained that a resolution is needed to amend Resolution.82-118, which would provide for an increase in the renewal application fee from $20.00 to $23.00. w .'

It states that the legal description of the franchise service area contained in Resolution No. 83-109 needs to be amended to reflect description in -his letter. If this matter has to be amended before the Commissioners, I would also like to make an amendment to have the franchise fee payable quarterly. erly. The resolution now reads annually. Y If this department needs to take an active role in having these amendments made, please advise the correct procedure. cc: Terrance G. Pinto, Utility Services Director Liz Forlani, County Commission Attorney Brandenburg explained that an incorrect legal description appears on the GDU Franchise Resolution 83-109 and he recommended that the description be officially replaced in the Minutes and in their franchise. Referring to the second request contained in the above memo, the County Attorney suggested that the Utilities Dept. set up another meeting with GDU to consider having the franchise fee paid quarterly. ON MOTION by Commissioner Bowman, SECONDED by Commissioner Wodtke, the Board unanimously agreed to amend Resolution 83-109, by officially replacing the legal description in the Minutes and the franchise, as recommended by the County Attorney, 23 JAN 4 1984 ROCK 5 `�.r, JAIL 4 1994� BOK .55'n cE �..

AUTHORIZATION FOR SIGNATURES OF ALL COMMISSIONERS ON PUBLIC MEETING CERTIFICATE FOR GENERAL DEVELOPMENT UTILITY BOND ISSUE Attorney Brandenburg explained that this is a matter of formality on the bonds that have already been closed for the GDU Industrial Revenue Bonds. It is a certificate stating that all actions taken in regard to those bonds occurred under the Sunshine Law, and the only way to certify that is for each of the Commissioners to sign it. It could not be done prior to the closing because some of the Commissioners were unavailable. ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, the Board unanimously authorized the signatures of all the Commissioners on Public Meeting Certificate for General Development Bond Issue, as recommended by the County Attorney. 24 PUBLIC MEETING CERTIFICATE STATE OF FLORIDA COUNTY OF INDIAN RIVER We, the undersigned members of Indian River County, Florida (the "Issuer"), recognizing that the purchaser of $4,000,000 Variable Rate Demand Utility Revenue Bonds (General Development Utilities, Inc. Project) dated December 1, 1983, of the Issuer, will have purchased said bonds in reliance upon this certificate, do hereby certify, individually and collectively, that no two or more members of the Issuer, meeting together, reached any prior conclusion as to whether the actions taken by the Issuer, with respect to said bonds, the security therefor and the application of the proceeds thereof, should or should not be taken by the Issuer or should not be recommended as an action to be taken or not to be taken by the Issuer, except at public meetings of the Issuer held after due notice to the public was given in the ordinary manner required by law and custom of the Issuer.

He recommended that the Board formally accept the deeds of easements. ON MOTION by Commissioner Bowman, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously accepted and authorized the Chairman's Signature on the deeds of easement for Lots 1-9, Block 6, Rivera Estates. SAID EASEMENTS ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK AGREEMENT REGARDING SR -60 WATER, LINE (continued from 12/21/83) Attorney Brandenburg explained that Attorney Samuel Block, representing West County Utility, Inc., had advised that the corporation is agreeable to this contract; however, there are a few minor changes that have been made which do not affect the content of the document. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, that the Board approve the -Water Service Agreement between the County and West County Utility, Inc. Under discussion, Attorney Brandenburg explained that the third "whereas" clause on Page 1 has been changed to read, "by extending a waterline along proposed route consisting of a path leading from the connection point at 20th Avenue and Oslo Road northward along 43rd Avenue to 8th Street...." 26 The second change is contained in Paragraph 2 on Page 2, where it says the amount of $650,000 representing the reservation of water capacity for 2,050 at $314.15 per unit tap. The $314.15 figure was deleted because when you multiply these figures out, they do not come up to the.exact numbers by a few dollars and the corporation has merely rounded out their figure to $650,000.. Commissioner Wodtke questioned the fifth paragraph on Page 5 where it states "The period for repayment of the special assessment shall be established at 10 years with equal annual installments due each year." He asked Attorney Brandenburg if, according to the Home Rule Ordinance that was just passed, we have the ability to vary the amount of repayment years in each separate agreement. Attorney Brandenburg advised that the County does have that flexibility. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously. 27 JAN 4 1984600K 55 %E7164 JAN 4 1984 BOOK �� tw76 WATER SERVICE AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT- made and entered into this 16th day of Janu l -N7 , 1984, by and between INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, hereinafter referred to as the "County;" and WEST COUNTY UTILITY, INC., a Florida corporation, hereinafter referred to as the "Corporation;" W I T N E S S E T H: WHEREAS, the County now owns, operates, supervises and manages a water system consisting of wells, water treatment plant, pumping and storage facilities, distribution mains, service mains, meters and appurtenances located in Indian River County, Florida; and.. WHEREAS, -the Corporation is an entity consisting of landowners along the State Road 60 corridor from 43rd Avenue to Interstate 95; and WHEREAS, it is the intent and purpose of the County to construct, own, operate, maintain, supervise and manage an .enlarged water distribution system, which will be capable of distributing treated water to certain unincorporated areas of the County by extending a waterline along a proposed route consisting of a path leading from the connection point at 20th Avenue and Oslo Road northward along 43rd Avenue to 8th Street then west on 8th Street to Kings Highway then north on Rings Highway to State Road 60 then west on State Road 60 to Interstate 95. This route may be altered upon the advice of the County's consulting engineer, but shall, in any event, supply water to the State Road. 60 corridor west of Kings Highway; and WHEREAS, the Corporation has requested. and encouraged the extension of the waterline and services by the County along the State Road 60 corridor and agrees to participate with the County in structuring the funding for the construction of said waterlines. In addition, the Corporation desires to obtain required reservations for waterline capacity and taps which will be allocated to specific properties. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth hereinafter, the parties do agree as follows: 1. It is understood that the County has approved the advertising for engineering bids for the design and construction of a distribution system for water commencing at the connection point from the County's existing system to the State Road 60 corridor.. The County shall instruct its consulting engineers to design the waterline so that it will be of at least sufficient size upon completion to service 2,050 water taps (defined as 2,050 equivalent residential connections). County shall not award bids for the construction of such facility until the financing contemplated by this agreement is complete. In the event the County instructs its engineers to design the project and thereafter financing contemplated by this agreement fails and no other suitable means of financing the project can be arranged, then the County shall have the right to elect to forego this project, in which event Corporation shall reimburse County for all expenses in connection with design of the waterline to that date. County agrees to instruct its engineers to provide the contractor selected to-do the -work with a schedule sufficient to complete the line by February, 1985. County also agrees to use its best efforts to aid in the completion of the project by February, 1985; however, County shall not be responsible to Corporation or any member thereof for delays in completion of the project beyond February, 1985. 2. The Corporation shall deliver to the County an IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF CREDIT from a local lending institution in the amount of $650,000.00 representing the reservation of water capacity for 2,050 taps. Such reservation shall be assigned to specific land areas by the Corporation upon the approval of the County. Thereafter, the reservation shall run with the land and may not be sold, transferred or assigned by the Corporation or any of its participants except to the purchasers of the fee simple title of the land to which the reservations have been distributed. In the event the reserved taps are not needed by the projects contemplated to be constructed on the specific land a. JAN19� -2- Q90K �� f 11D r JAN 4 1984 WK areas, then the reservation may be reassigned to the County for distribution by the County to any other person. At the time the County receives payment by a third party at such a rate as then determined by the Board of County Commissioners to be appropriate for the unused reservation, the Corporation or its appropriate member or assigns shall be refunded the amount of money originally paid by the Corporation to County for the reservation and associated line costs under the assessment program. The County is under no obligation to find a purchaser for the unused taps. Any excess funds over and above what the Corporation or member originally paid for the tap charged by the County to the new purchaser shall be the sole property of the County. At the time the line or any portion thereof is completed to the extent that it can be certified by the Department of Environmental Regulation as capable of delivering potable water, then each tap reservation shall be required to begin paying a monthly base facilities charge. The base facilities charge imposed shall be the same as imposed by the County by the adoption of an ordinance setting forth a County- wide rate structure after public hearing. Tn the event any reserved tap fails to pay its base facilities charge for a period of thirty (30) days, and upon the demand of the County, then such reservation shall be deemed canceled and the County shall have the full right to reassign said tap to any other person refunding to Corporation only such sum as originally paid by Corporation to County for the reservation and proportionate share of line costs at such time as County sells said reservation to an'interested third party. County shall deduct from the payment to Corporation the amount of the monthly base facilities charge due accruing to the date of sale of the tap to the third party. In the event the Corporation or any member thereof elects to those utility tap reservations that were formerly canceled, then that member or the Corporation shall pay the higher of the then current impact fee or the amount originally paid to County for reservation of the tap. An instrument in recordable form, satisfactory to the County Attorney, shall be executed by the owners of all lands JAN that will receive such reservations establishing the conditions of this agreement as a covenant running with the land on such properties. It is expressly understood by the parties to this agreement that one purpose of this provision is to prohibit the speculation by any party in Indian River County utility taps and plant capacity. The Corporation agrees that it will not participate -and will prohibit its members and stockholders from any such speculation whatsoever. Upon completion of the assessment and an issuance of the assessment bonds under the County's HOME RULE ORDINANCE, the IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF CREDIT shall be released by County and Corporation shall immediately at the closing of such bonds pay to the County in cash a like amount for plant capacity and, -in addition, its share of the line, engineering and construction costs. 3. The County and Corporation shall each participate in the funding of the water system improvements contemplated by this agreement. The County recognizes that the improvements envisioned hereunder will enable the County to service customers other than those participating with the Corporation and it thereby agrees to pay a share -of the cost of the facilities constructed. The County and Corporation have based the amount of cost sharing set forth in this agreement upon an engineer's analysis that the cost of a line sufficient to serve the Corporation alone will be $1,342',:750.00 with the size of the line requested by the County to serve the developers and other indi- viduals costing $2.4 million. Based on this relationship, the parties agree that Corporation shall fund $970.45 per equivalent residential connection (which includes $315.14 plant capacity charge and hydraulic share of line cost, excluding all other charges). In the event that the total cost of the proposed line as specified by the County exceeds $2.4 million, then both the County and Corporation shall each have the right to cancel this agreement. If canceled, County shall be reimbursed by Corporation for engineering costs incurred to the date of cancel - lation and County shall refund to Corporation any plant capacity reservation fees collected by County from Corporation to that 4 194 -4Bea 55 PnE 768 - JAN 4 1984� r� date and shall release the IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF CREDIT if in existence at that time. 4. It is understood by the parties that the County Attorney has presented a HOME RULE ORDINANCE to the County Commission and that ordinance has been adopted by the County. The ordinance sets forth the authorization for the issuance by the County of special assessment bonds to finance the construc- tion of County improvements. The construction of the waterline contemplated by this agreement falls within those categories of improvements for which the County may utilize the ordinance for the placement of special assessments against those lands which benefit from the improvements. The documentation for the place- ment of special assessment.bonds will be undertaken by bond counsel for the County, County Attorney and Corporation Attorney and shall be completed as soon as possible after the signing of this agreement. The Corporation agrees to be responsible for the cost of legal fees and other expenses incurred by the County in the preparation of all necessary financial documents and court validation proceedings. The Corporation will execute all docu- ments necessary for the County to assess the lands to be benefited by the water taps, the Corporation's share of design, construction and plant reservation and incidential costs thereto. 5. The HOME RULE ORDINANCE adopted by the County authorizes the issuance of special assessment bonds consistent with the provisions of Chapter 170 Florida Statutes and the parties to this agreement agree to cooperate providing all docu- mentation necessary to accomplish the assessment. The County shall establish a procedure whereby individual landowners on whose land a lien is placed by virtue of this special assessment may extinguish the lien by depositing with the County sufficient security to ensure timely payment of the amount of the special assessment or installments thereof. The period for repayment of the special assessment shall be established at ten (10) years with equal annual installments due each year. 6. At such time the special assessment bonds are ready for placement, the Corporation shall have the option of seeking private placement of the bonds with a local lending institution or such other source as may be available. In the event the Corporation is unable to place the bonds privately, then the parties agree to cooperate and use their combined best efforts to seek alternate sources for placement of the bonds or alternate financing. - 7. Water taps which will be reserved by the Corporation shall run with the land and may only be transferred to its successor in title for consideration based on the -actual cost to the landowner for procuring the taps. After the special assessment bond has been placed and the special assessment liens issued, landowners shall deal directly with the County with respect to those taps reserved for their land. 8. This contract is written specifically for the bene- fits of the parties hereto and there is no intent on the part of the parties to this contract to create rights in any third parties. No third party shall have any right whatsoever against either of the parties to this contract. 9. This agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the parties and may only be modified subsequently in writing.by the mutual consent of both parties. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the duly authorized officials of the County and the Corporation have executed this agreement in duplicate, either of which may be deemed an original, on the date and year first above written.

The corporation is proposing that the County accept an Irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of $650,000 to reserve 2,050 water taps until such time as the assessment is made and the bonds are sold. The amount of the -bonds will include the $650,000 so at that time the County will release the Irrevocable'Letter of Credit and it will be replaced with.cash. This is somewhat of a departure from the County's policy of accepting cash deposits, and r needs the approval of -the Board to allow this to occur. Attorney Brandenburg explained that when the County holds the rate hearings for the new County -wide rate ordinance, a proposed resolution will be on the agenda laying out a main extension policy for the County, setting forth the County policy on all types of extensions. 11 OMB Director Barton noted that in the past when the County accepted cash deposits, the`County benefited from the interest gained in those accounts, unless an agreement was reached at the time of deposit whereby the corporation would receive some interest. If a request for interest was made, the interest was negotiated. However, if no request was made to receive interest, none was paid, and the County received the interest. ;Utilities Director Pinto explained that reservation fees are not actually a deposit and do not pay interest. At that point, there has been a purchase and -the money belongs to the County. Commissioner Wodtke did not have any problem with this - kind of instrument under the circumstances. The $650,000 is subsequently going to be funded through a bond or through revenue which the corporation is generating themselves. 28 JAN Administrator Wright believed that the County will have the money in 120-150 days, and he felt this is an extraordinary circumstance as it was such a large project. ON MOTION by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously accepted the Irrevocable Letter of Credit of $650,000 for Reservation of Utility Taps. AUTHORIZATION FOR OUT -OF -COUNTY TRAVEL TO WINTER PARK AND FORT MYERS FOR MEETINGS WITH FRIZZELL ARCHITECTS MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, that the Board authorize out -of -county travel for Commissioner Lyons, Judge D. C. Smith and County Attorney Brandenburg to travel to Fort Myers and Winter Park for meetings with Frizzell Architects. Under discussion, Commissioner Lyons explained that one. of the things they wanted to accomplish on this trip is to make sure that Frizzell Architects honors their original contract with the County to build the proposed new jail. They wished to avoid the legal entanglement that occurred during the renovation of the administrative building and the courthouse. Chairman Scurlock noted that while Commissioner Lyons was away over Christmas, an editorial appeared in the newspaper questioning the cost of the jail. He felt it is imperative that we get a true picture of the actual facility and that the costs need to be spelled out more thoroughly. 29 4 1984 55 772 JAN 4 1984 W55- 773 There seems to be some misunderstanding when reference is made to per prisoner cost of capital improvement. Commissioner Lyons stated he planned to spend practically all of his time during the next few weeks in connection with getting these jail problems completely resolved so that he can come back with a solid picture to present to the Commission and the public. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously.

Chairman FREDA WRIGHT, Cle k �� � P 775 JAN 4 198 55- rAO; NORTH COUNTY FIRE DISTRICT The Board of County Commissioners recessed at 9:30 o'clock A.M. in order that the District Board of the North County Fire District might convene. Those Minutes are being prepared separately. The Board of County Commissioners reconvened at 10:10 o'clock A.M. with the same members present. DISCUSSION RE WIDENING OF AIA The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/15/83: TO: The Honorable Members of DATE: December 15, 1983 FILE: the Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Michael Wright, County Administrator SUBJECT: A -1-A Pavement Widening and Method of Payment by County or by Special -Assessment FROM: James W. Davis, P.E. EFERENCES: Public Works Director DESCRIPTIOY AND CONDITIONS The FDOT is beginning construction widening of A -1-A at Indian River Shores on January 4, 1984. The approximate cost is estimated at $250,000 which is a $50,000 savings thru FDOT. The project is to improve traffic safety, primarily for residents at the project location, by widening the road to provide left turn storage lanes at the entrances to private and public accesses. Indian River Shores adopted Resolution No. 233 Feb.10, 1983 using an assessment with a $100 maximum assessment per unit, based on lineal front footage and gross area of construction in square feet. This can be further broken down into residential units directly served by the improvement. The Town of Indian River Shores requested that the County assume that share of the assessment cost attributed to County enclaves' frontage along A -1-A inasmuch as the property owners along this - frontage benefit from the improvement in the same manner as those within the town The Transportation Planning Committee March 8, 1983 unanimously recommended "that the Board participate with the Town of Indian River Shores in widening A -1-A in the unincorporated portion of that roadway". 34 � � r ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS There are five parcels lying outside the incorporated town as follows: Note- If Alternative No. 4 is approved, the County cost of the project is projected at: County Park Property $3806.25 absorbed cost per unit above $100 max.cap. -. 1900.00 Total Cost to County $5706.25 Public Works Director Jim Davis explained the funding alternatives and reported that staff has recommended that the Board approve Alternative #4, i.e., assessing all the lots at $100. They would like to schedule a public hearing as soon as possible to finalize the assessment procedure. If the $100 per unit assessment is approved, the cost to the County would be $5,706.25, which includes the County's share for the County park and also the cost absorbed above -and beyond the $100 maximum cap. The staff prefers this assessment method.simply because of the ease of assessing the units. 35 L__ __ DAN 4. 1984 55 J Parcels # of Lineal Square Ft.

RECOMMENDATION It is requested that Alternative No. 4 -be approved, and authorize County Attorney and Public Works Staff to schedule and prepare a Public Hearing on the Special'A_ssessment Program as soon as possible. Note- If Alternative No. 4 is approved, the County cost of the project is projected at: County Park Property $3806.25 absorbed cost per unit above $100 max.cap. -. 1900.00 Total Cost to County $5706.25 Public Works Director Jim Davis explained the funding alternatives and reported that staff has recommended that the Board approve Alternative #4, i.e., assessing all the lots at $100.

The staff prefers this assessment method.simply because of the ease of assessing the units. 35 L__ __ DAN 4. 1984 55 J JAN 41994 BOOK 55 Commissioner Bird asked if Alternative #4 is consistent with the way Indian River Shores is assessing property owners within their jurisdiction and Director Davis explained that Indian River Shores also has a maximum on their assessment, but their formula is different because it has another basis for establishing the actual impact fee. Commissioner Bird felt a little uncomfortable with charging $100 a unit on a condominium that may be worth $75_;000 and a home that might be valued at $250,000 and Commissioner Wodtke realized that there would be some objection to whatever,type of assessment is used, but felt that the real issue is that cars and people use the road and not how many people live in the home or how much the home is worth. ON MOTION by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation of Alternative #4 providing for the assessment of each existing unit and undeveloped land.at a cost of $100 per unit; the County to absorb the remaining cost of the project; and authorized the scheduling of a public hearing to finalize the assessment procedure. AMENDMENT OF ZONING CODE TO ALLOW ACREAGE CREDIT FOR RIGHT-OF-WAY DONATION The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/13/83: 36 TO: The Honorable Members of DATE: December 13, 1983 FILE: the Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Michael Wright, County Administrator SUBJECT: Amendment of zoning Code to Allow Acreage Credit for Right - of -Way Donation James W. Davis, P.E.; .•#-j Public Works Director FROM: Robert Keating; REFERENCES: Letters from Various Property Planning and Development Director Owners along.Indian River Blvc and 12th Street DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS A meeting was held on November 28, 1983, with owners of property along the southerly extension of Indian River Boulevard. At this time, County staff requested the donation of right-of-way,along the Boulevard and 12th Street. It was the concensus of the owners that donation would be provided if acreage credit was allowed for the area being donated at the time that future development plans were submitted. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Alternative # 1 - To allow acreage credit for right-of-w4y donated prior to site plan/subdivision submission, an amendment to the current zoning code would be recommended. This amendment could grant the Board of County Commissioner the authority to allow the acreage credit along the Thoroughfare Plan Arterial and Collector right-of-ways, on a individual basis. Alternative # 2 - Deny acreage credit. This alternative would result in the County requesting right-of-way donation with "no conditions" applicable. If property owners did not elect to donate, right-of-way would be acquired by negotiation or condemnation, unless the project was abandoned or delayed until donation was agreed. r RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING It is recommended that the County staff be authorized to develop the zoning code amendment to allow acreage credit. Administrator Wright explained the density credit allowance and staff's recommendation that the Board authorize the transfer of density. This matter is on the Agenda today in order to get some direction from the Board. Public Works Director Davis reported that they are going to look at 150 feet of right-of-way. From the existing south terminus of the right-of-way of Indian River Boulevard to 4th Street there is approximately 24 acres, which would add 240 units because there is a density of 10 units per acre in that area. F L-.___, a .A ._ 37 FOOK MCI�'��l J JAN 4 1984 060K 5 5 ?ACE 781 Commissioner Lyons felt it was a good way to handle the situation, but wished to have a density cap somewhere along the line. Chairman Scurlock stated that right now we are talking about a transfer of 1 to 1 and asked Attorney Brandenburg if we have the flexibility of doing for some and not for others in the event that a property owner in that area balked at donating the right-of-way and forced the County to go through the process of eminent domain by establishing policy. Attorney Brandenburg stated that if there was condemnation involved; there would be a no density transfer. He cautioned that there are certain areas of the County where an individual could not develop his property and could not have any density on it whatsoever unless he dedicates a road to the County and the County, in fact, builds a road to his front door. He suggested that if we do have this density transfer policy, it should not be applicable to instances where an owner does not have any way of getting to his property. The County would be`doing the property owner a favor by putting.a road through. Therefore, the property owner ought to dedicate the load for free and build the road for the County rather than the County requesting the owner to give the County the road and then allowing the density credit. Administrator Wright stated that it can be done on a case by case basis because of the above reasons given by Attorney Brandenburg. Planning & Development Director Robert Keating felt that consideration should be given to the fact that this area is all multi -family density and actually has a lower overall density than a subdivision. He added that they did not anticipate any problem with the 35 ft. height limitation in that area. 38 M M r M Commissioner Bird stated that the density transfer is not really inconsistent at all with the way we would normally handle a piece of raw land that was being subdivided. Attorney Brandenburg explained that many of these individuals are not ready to submit a site plan at the present time. If the transfer of density is made now, they still want whatever zoning is in existence at the time they are ready to submit a site plan: He asked if the Commission would want to set a time cap saying that if they donate the right of way within the last two years preceding submittal of their site plan, they would receive the credit. Commissioner Wodtke felt that maybe we don't want all that land developed within the next two years. If they want a road through there and are willing to donate the road right-of-way, then he would prefer that rather than spending a substantial amount of County money. He would have a problem in setting the two-year cap. Chairman Scurlock felt this was an opportunity for the developer to come in.and cooperate up front to avoid a lot of problems later, i.e., lack of water and sewer service, oversizing; turning lanes, impaot fees being returned to the developer. These problems could be addressed beforehand. Commissioner Lyons inquired if this amounts to contracted zoning if we guarantee the number of units and Attorney Brandenburg explained that we could not actually guarantee the units. The only way it could be done is to say that in the event they submit a site plan, they would receive density based on a calculation using the gross acreage figure, including the right-of-way that was previously donated at whatever the zoning and land use plan designation were at the time they submit their site plan. Commissioner Bird asked if it was agreed then that the density transfer would be left open and there is not going 39 Pcoy 55' ►kcf.. 2 JAN 41994 II JAN 4 1984 55 tnE 783 to be a time limit attached to it because some of this property is not going to develop for 5 or 10 years. The Commissioners agreed that the County does not want to necessarily accelerate the development of that land. Attorney Brandenburg explained the Board would merely be changing an ordinance setting up current policy, and there would be nothing to prevent future Commissions from changing the ordinance back after the right-of-way is donated. The property owners may have some legal argument at that time about takings, etc., but the Board cannot enter into a contract laying out what the zoning rights on a piece of property are going -to be in the future, particularly when r it is not known how the area is going to be developed. Chairman Scurlock advised anyone in the audience who had questions regarding this matter to contact either Attorney Brandenburg, Administrator Wright or someone on the staff prior to the public hearing on the proposed zoning code amendment. Joseph P. Strazzulla, grove owner, pointed out that because the property owners in that area are donating a substantial amount of land, they need some protection for the future when they are ready to develop that land. Commissioner Bowman interjected the fact that they would be getting a highway. Commissioner Lyons suggested that staff should be authorized to draft an amendment to the ordinance and that more discussion should take place to see how it goes. He felt that all the Commissioners are for it if we can find a way to make it work. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lyons SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, that the Board authorize staff to develop the zoning 40 code amendment to allow the acreage credit, based on the discussion we have had this morning. Attorney Brandenburg emphasized that if this Board changes the zoning ordinance allowing calculation to be based on gross acreage, a future Commission has the right to change it back and do it on a net basis. Commissioner Bird asked if -it was possible to enter into some kind of agreement with the developers whereby they would agree to donate the right-of-way predicated on the County taking final steps to build the road and that, if for some reason the County does not build the road, they would not have to give up their property, because obviously they are going to need some other access to their property. Attorney Brandenburg advised that a reverter could be put in the deeds indicating this. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously.

Beach Restoration and Preservation Committee & Marine Island Committee Liz Forlani, Administrative Secretary to the Board of County Commissioners stated that members of these committees serve at the discretion of the Board. Commissioner Wodtke felt that the Beach Restoration and Preservation Committee would be very active in the coming year as there is some funding of $65,000, not the anticipated $130,000, but there is going to be some need for some local input and decision making. FINANCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT Chairman Scurlock reported that a letter was received from Arch W. Roberts & Co./The Leedy Corporation in reference to the two existing bond issues for the renovation of the administrative building and the courthouse. It seems that after -authorization was given -on November 30, 1983 to proceed with the preparation for"marketing the issue, the interest rates have not been within the constraints of Ordinance 80-10. The bond managing underwriters have advised that they could not refinance the bonds with the County's maximum of 9.5% interest rate, and a 5 percent discount rate. The Finance Advisory Committee will be meeting next week to consider all alternatives, and will return with a recommendation. 47 N, 0#1 55 p'AUI %V r JAN 4 1994 g 7, The Board of County Commissioners thereupon recessed at 11:00 o'clock A.M. and reconvened at 1:30 P.M. with the same members present.

Keat ng, ICP ACRES FROM R-1, SINGLE - Planning & Development FAMILY DISTRICT, TO R -2B Director MULTIPLE -FAMILY DISTRICT FROM: i1ZS REFERENCES: Richard Shearer, AICP Sanders Rezoning Principal Planner DIS•RICH It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of January 4, 1984. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS - The applicants, represented by Christine Sanders as agent, and the County are requesting to rezone approximately 3.53 acres located one block north of North Gifford Road (45th Street) and on both sides of 38th Avenue from R-1, Single -Family District, to R -2B, Multiple -Family District, the subject property being all of blocks 2 and 4 of Lord Calviert Estates Subdivision. Ms. Sanders owns two lots in this subdivision and has submitted notarized written statements from all of the property owners in Blocks 2 and 4 of this subdivision, requesting a rezoning to a multiple -family zoning district. Ms. Sanders proposes to build a duplex on her two lots, a use which is not permitted under the existing R-1 zoning. On November 10, 1983, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 4 -to -0 to deny this rezoning request for several reasons. The Commission noted that this area was platted for single-family lots, and they -felt that it should remain so. The Commission also agreed with surrounding property owners who wanted to maintain the single-family character of this neighborhood. This denial was formally appealed by Ms. Sanders. ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the existing land use! pattern will be presented as well as a discussion of the future land use as established in the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property currently contains three single-family houses on the east side of 38th Avenue and three duplexes on the west side of 38th Avenue (the duplexes are non -conforming uses in the R-1 district). The majority of the lots in the subject property are vacant. North of the subject property is a single- family house and two four-plexes (four-plexes are also non- conforming uses in the R-1 district). East of the subject property is a church and a large area that is being used for outdoor storage, both of which are located in an R-2, Multiple - 50 Family District. Blocks 1 and 3 of Lord Calvert Estates Subdi- vision are located south of the subject property. These two blocks are devoted primarily to single-family houses, although there is a church and a few vacant lots in this area. The land west of the subject property is developed as single-family subdivisions. Future Land Use Pattern The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as part of the Gifford MXD, Mixed -Use District (up to 14 units/acre). All of the area immediately surrounding the subject property is also part .of the Gifford Mixed -Use District. The R -2B zoning, which is proposed for this area, would allow a maximum of 8.1 units/acre. This is a much lower -density than the 14 units/acre allowed in the R-2 zoning district, adjacent to the subject property to the east, and it is only slightly higher than the 6.2 units/acre allowed in the R-1 zoning district south and west of the subject property. However, most of the lots in the R-1 district south and west of the subject property are smaller than the minimum size required in the R-1 district. The R-1 district requires a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet with a minimum lot width of 70 feet. The lots in these subdivisions are 50 or 60 feet wide with total lot areas of 6,000 square feet. These non -conforming lots allow a higher overall density than that permitted in an R-1 district. The Comprehensive Plan notes that in many cases it is difficult to provide effective transition buffers in MXD areas. However, in this case, it appears that rezoning the subject property to R -2B would provide a transition buffer between the four-plexes and the R-2 district north and east of the subject property and the single-family subdivisions south and west of the subject property. In addition, the Comprehensive Plan states that the County shall encourage redevelopment in accordance with the dominant land uses in MXD areas. Redevelopment of the subject property in duplexes would provide a good transition buffer and would improve the area -with new construction. Also, rezoning the subject property to R -2B would still allow the construction of single-family homes on the -.platted lots within the subject property boundaries. Roads/Traffic The subject property has direct access to 38th Avenue (clas- sified as a local street on the Thoroughfare Plan). If every undeveloped lot in "the subject property were developed in single-family housing, this would result in 181 average daily trips (ADT). If the subject property were rezoned to R -2B and the undeveloped lots were developed as duplexes, this would result in 85 ADT. Environment The subject property is not designated as environmentally sensitive, nor is it a flood -prone area. Utilities The subject property is served by County water and.wastewater facilities. However, the developer would need to install manholes and gravity flow lines to connect to the County sewer. 51 JAN 4 1984 PA wK 55 ON JAIV A 1984 Mi RECOMMENDATION .55 PnE 795 During the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of November 10, 1983, the Commission voted to deny the applicant's request to have this property rezoned for those reasons cited in the description and conditions section of this memorandum. It is the staff's opinion that these are valid reasons. It is the staff's recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners give due consideration to the Planning and .Zoning Commission's recommendation as well as the information provided by this memorandum. Chairman Scurlock announced the procedure to be followed, and Property Appraiser David Nolte asked if it would be proper for him to represent Mrs. Sanders and make a few opening remarks. The Chairman hadno, problem with this. Mr. Nolte informed the Board that the applicant, Christine Sanders, came to work for the Property Appraiser's office in 1973 and has risen to the position of Manager of the Appraiser's data processing department. He noted that Mrs. Sanders wishes to have this land rezoned in order to build good quality rental units and improve her property. Mr. Nolte pointed out that staff's memo states that "Redevelopment of the subject property in duplexes would provide a good transition buffer and would improve the area with new construction." It further` states that the Comprehensive Plan encourages redevelopment in MXD areas; therefore, Mr. Nolte believed that staff's memo clearly indicates that Mrs. Sanders application is in order and is in the best interests of the land owners and the County. He further noted that staff in their memo to the Planning & Zoning Commission, dated October 25, 1983, recommended approval of the requested rezoning. Commissioner Lyons had a question as to how this became a "County initiated" request. Principal Planner Richard Shearer explained that the applicant's original request was to rezone just her two lots, but she was informed that would be considered spot zoning, and if she could come up with a larger size area for rezoning, there would be more likelihood of receiving 52 approval. Mrs. Sanders did contact all the property owners in Blocks 2 and 4 of Lord Calvert Estates Subdivision, and they gave her permission to apply for the rezoning. Since she did not have title and warranty deed to all the other properties,_.however, to make the application legal, it was County initiated. Staff felt a request to go to R -2B was a reasonable one. Planner Shearer continued that a letter has been received from surrounding property owner Zelma Jenkins in favor of the rezoning, and phone calls in support of the proposed rezoning have been received from Mrs. Mentoria Ross and Ms. Bertha Sanders. Planner Shearer then displayed slides showing the three duplexes currently located on the subject property immedi- ately south of the lots owned by Mrs. Sanders, as well as slides of existing four-plex apartments, and reviewed the existing land use pattern and the surrounding uses in detail. He noted that staff looked at the proposed rezoning as a nice transition from 14 units per acre on the east to 6 units to the west. They also looked at the existing uses with three duplexes in the area and 3 single family homes and pointed out that R -2B would not preclude anyone from having a single family house. At the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting, however, there were a considerable number of people with concerns about the rezoning, and the Planning & Zoning Commission voted to recommend denial of the rezoning. Commissioner Bird questioned whether the size of the lots would have any effect on them being buildable for single family, and Mr. Shearer explained that these lots, which are 50' wide x 120' deep, are non -conforming lots of record and it is possible to build a single family residence on them; although, it might be necessary to get a variance on side yard setbacks. 53 JAN 4 1984 ��� 55 nkv 796 ROK 55 raF 7,97 Commissioner Bird expressed concern that staff's memo to the Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval, but their present memo to the Board seems to hedge a bit. He emphasized that he relies on staff for their professional opinion and hoped they would look at every situation strictly from a planning perspective and stand by their position unless something comes to light which really changes the situation. Commissioner Lyons concurred. Administrator Wright stated that what staff is trying to do is give the Commission their professional.opinion but also make them aware of the fact that the Planning & Zoning Commission did not necessarily agree with it; they are just saying this is some more information the Board should consider. Further discussion ensued as to the fact that the two lots owned by Mrs. Sanders are contiguous to the three existing duplexes and that she apparently was informed that rezoning of her two lots alone would constitute spot zoning. Planner Shearer explained that the Planning staff told Mrs. Sanders she had a very slim chance of getting just her two lots rezoned, but if she could get all the property owners together, staff would feel more comfortable with that type request. He noted that staff gives the applicant their feeling about their chances; they will accept any applica- tion, but do try to discourage some. Mrs. Sanders informed the Board that she also asked the Zoning Commission if there was any way she could obtain a variance in order to build duplexes on her two lots, and they told her there was no way. She emphasized that if she could just have her prgperty changed, she would be satisfied, but noted that everyone she did contact in these - blocks was in favor of the rezoning. Chairman Scurlock asked if anyone present wished to be heard. 54 - M M Ivey Williams, Jr., 1446 31st Ave., informed the Board that he is in favor of the proposed rezoning and stated that he has some interest in the area, plus he is representing his brother John 0. Williams and the American Legion Home. Mr. Williams made the point that most of the people building nice homes are building further west and not in this area. He did not want to disturb the people who already have nice homes there, but felt there is not much else you can do with this land now. Dallas Yates of 3810 45th St., resident of Lord Calvert Estates, felt the pictures displayed by the Planning staff show clearly how bad the present duplexes look, and he believed when more are built, they soon will look the same. He noted that duplex units are rental units and will be inhabited by transients who have no interest in keeping up the property. Mr. Yates stressed that the present residents of the area are living in a quiet community and can sleep at night because they do not have the kind of people who cause trouble; they are trying to clean up the area; they don't want slums; and they.are asking the Board to help them keep Gifford on the march and build it up, not tear it down. Leroy'Brown, resident of Narth 35th Street, informed the Board that he owns 65 rental units of all kinds - duplexes, single family homes, etc., on 33rd Ave., 35th Ave., 36th Ave., 38th Ave., 43rd St., all around this area; he also has land right across the street from Mrs. Sanders and a $40,000 house, and he sees no reason to deny the rezoning requested by Mrs. Sanders. Rev. Donald Brown, Pastor of Fellsmere Church of God in Christ for 18 years, and resident of 36th Ave.,. stated that he came to speak on behalf of Mrs. Sanders because he is concerned about the many people of the area who have no decent place to live and have to go down to Vero to try to find one. Rev. Brown noted that the area Mrs. Sanders is JA N 494 5 5 ��� ����79 JAN 4 1984` ra0g` proposing to build in is presently full of wood and junk; he further noted that Mrs. Sanders keeps up her own home, and he was sure that she would not put anyone in the duplexes she would build who she wouldn't trust to keep up the property. Rev. Brown pointed out that Mr. Yates, who has a home in this area, is a fruit contractor, and he has tractors, trucks, ladders, etc., all piled up among the $50,000 homes. He urged the Board to allow the rezoning. .- Rev. Owen Chennault, Pastor, Church of God, 45th St. and 38th Ave., and resident of 38th'Avenue, spoke in opposition to rezoning to R-2. He expressed great concern about having transients in'an area of single family homes where people care about their property. Rev. Chennault felt those who are in favor of more duplexes are more concerned with the dollar than with the community and stated that if you looked at the rental properties of the gentleman who spoke of all the homes he owns and rents --in this general area, you would see what they fear. Elder Leroy Sanders, Pastor of the Church of God in Christ, located just a few hundred yards from the subject property, spoke in support of the rezoning requested by Mrs. Sanders, who was formerly married to his nephew, and stated that he admires Mrs. Sanders for what she is trying to do. Pastor Sanders aked the Board to have mercy on her and support her in her endeavors and begged those present not to fight among themselves, but stand behind Mrs. Sanders in her effort to provide housing for those who need it. He pointed out that if any problems should arise, we have a qualified Zoning Board and a qualified Commission to deal with them. Sherry Brown informed the Board that she lives at 4626 48th Avenue, which property is owned by Mamie B. Jackson, and noted that at the Planning & Zoning meeting, she voted against the requested rezoning and mistakenly withdrew Mrs. Jackson's name from the petition in support of the rezoning. 56 � ® r Mrs. Jackson has since informed her that she does support the requested rezoning, and since this is Mrs. Jackson's property, she wished the Board to know that Mrs. Jackson is in favor of the rezoning. Commissioner Lyons noted that, in other words, this cancels out Ms. Brown's comments at the last meeting, and Ms. Brown confirmed that it did. Pastor Chennault emphasized that the people of the community are not looking for mercy; they want progress; and they do not want their community rundown by the transients further duplex development would bring to their area. Rev. Sam Brown, Jr., resident of Lord Calvert Estates, also objected to the proposed rezoning. He noted that the existing duplexes have already depreciated the value of the nice homes built in this community, and they do not want more added. He emphasized that, as a landlord himself, he knows how hard it is to keep rental property up even with the best of intentions. Rev. Brown pointed out that the County is trying to beautify and upgrade the Gifford area, and he believed the proposed rezoning would destroy their efforts. Regina Hurst, concerned citizen of the area, stated that she was not on one side or.the other, but there are a lot of issues involved. It is obvious that housing is needed for the poor, and she believed Mrs. Sanders is trying to do her best, but transient people will not be concerned about the area. Ms. Hurst noted that past zoning has allowed a distorted mixture of structures - homes, businesses, etc. - to be built next to each other in Gifford, and she urged that the Commission apply the same planning principles in Gifford as used in the remainder of the county. Chairman Scurlock felt it is interesting that at the Transportation Committee meeting, Mr. Lundy and Mr. Hart, JAN 419 -QA 57 55 pwn F11- J AN 4 194 1 both representatives of the Gifford area, stressed that it is time to quit thinking about Gifford as being different and to make the same rules throughout the community so it can be upgraded. Chairman Scurlock concurred that we have to stop making a differentiation and adopt good planning procedures but believed we have been trying to do this for a number of years. Commissioner Lyons agreed and pointed out that it will take a long time to make up for the past helter-skelter growth. Mildred Sherman spoke in support of Mrs. Sanders, noting that many times two"or three families are forced to r live together because'of the lack of adequate housing. Rev. David'Shone also favored the proposed rezoning. Betty Champion, 4595 38th Ave., spoke of her husband's efforts to keep their property up and emphasized that they would like to.see the area kept a decent, quiet area as it is now. They want to see single family homes and not duplexes. No one further wished to be heard, and Property. Appraiser Nolte asked to be allowed to make a closing comment on behalf.of Mrs. Sander. He emphasized that the simple fact is that duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes are already in this area; the proposal is in conformity with the Master Plan; and the area needs economic activity, which Mrs. Sanders is trying to provide. Mr. Nolte, therefore, requested that the Board approve the proposed rezoning. ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, the Board unanimously closed the public hearing. Discussion ensued as to the fact that this area was designated MXD, which is the most permissive land use in the County, specifically because it has been built in such a mixed fashion, and Chairman Scurlock agreed the biggest problem is that the Gifford community is such a hodgepodge of development where you can literally see every kind of use next to each other. It is, therefore, very difficult to try to bring the area into compliance with a plan; the duplexes are an existing use, but he could also understand why people in single family homes do not want any more multi family next to them. Commissioner Bird stated that he is very much in favor of trying to upgrade the Gifford community, and he also is very strongly in favor of trying to provide affordable decent housing for working people, which immediately puts him in a quandary. To further complicate the situation, people from the community have spoken strongly on both sides of the question, and he greatly respects those on both sides. He continued that we do look at the predominant use in a neighborhood. Although there is some multi family use, Commissioner Bird believed the predominant use is single family and stated he, therefore, is inclined to turn down the rezoning request. He commended Mrs. Sanders on her attempt to -bring affordable high. class housing to the community and stated that he would like to work with her to accomplish this in an area that is more compatible. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, to deny the rezoning to R -2B requested by Mrs. Sanders. Commissioner Wodtke reported that he spent a lot of time yesterday going through the area, and noted that he also knows many of the people present who have presented 59 rr'�ii 8V? JAN 4 1984 I J A N 4 1984 sQaK 55,r 1 arguments on both sides and has great respect for them all. Commissioner Wodtke noted that Mrs. Sanders has a piece of property that is located next to the three existing duplexes, and they really are not kept up very well. This, of course, does not mean that her duplexes would look like that, but he felt that for the benefit of the overall community and the surrounding area, it would be best for this to remain in single family. Commissioner Bowman reported that she visited the area today, and you get the overall impression, when you drive down 38th Avenue, that it is a nice residential street. She, too, admired.what Mrs. Sanders is trying to do, but hoped that she could find a good.real estate investment somewhere else to accomplish this. Commissioner Lyons also believed the proposed rezoning would be inconsistent with the general character of the neighborhood and felt there is adequate R-2 in the community Z having to rezone for it. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. It was voted on, and the Board unanimously denied the request to rezone to R -2B.
