Vero Beach, Florida 32960 i,
Dear Mr. Scurlock:
As you are aware, we have previously requested to appear before the Board
of County Commissioners of Indian River County at its February 24, 1987
meeting. The nature of our request was to extend the franchise territory
of Sea Oaks Utilities, Inc. into that of Consolidated Vista Development
Corporation.
With your assistance, and that of Mr. Terrence Pinto of the county's
utility department, we have been able to accomplish the intent of our
request ... service to the Coralstone Club using a permanent treatment
facility rather than a temporary package plant. This will be accomplished
under a service agreement between Consolidated Vista Development Corporation
and Sea Oaks Utilties, Inc. which will allow them to buy capacity, treatment
and agreed upon operating services from our utility while leaving their
franchise intact. The capacity and treatment will be provided in a uniform
and non-discriminatory fashion under the same terms and conditions as
properties within our franchise territory.
Accordingly, we withdraw the request to expand our franchise territory, but
-. ask that the presentation material and this letter be considered a matter
of public record. We appreciate your time and consideration in this matter
and look forward to continued mutual support.
er truly ours
Preston I. Perrone
President

Alternatives and Analvsis
The low bid was submitted by General GMC, West Palm Beach, Fl., in.
the amount of $34,495.00. The Bid meets specifications.
We have received a letter from Fred Mensing, Sebastian, F1. stating he
was not bidding this truck because he feels the specifications written
were for inferior pieces of equipment. However, Fleet Management, Public
Works and Purchasing have reviewed the bids and feel the low bid is adequate
for the County's needs. Memos are attached from Jack McCorkle and Albert
VanAuken
Recommendation and Funding
Staff recommends IRC #335 be awarded to the low -bidder, General GMC.
Funds are budgeted in Account #111-214-.541-066.42.
Chairman Scurlock expressed concern about the utilization of
vehicles and equipment, as it seemed to him that we keep buying
additional dump trucks and he wanted to be sure that we don't
overbuy, especially when we are spending $30,000-$40,000 for one
vehicle. He felt we should take a hard look at the scheduling of
the existing equipment.
Public Works Director Jim Davis advised that they have 10
dump trucks and try to utilize the smaller trucks for drainage
ditch maintenance, etc., while using the 12-14 yard trucks to
carry fill for road projects and other operations. He reported
that they have not added any new vehicles to the fleet; these are
replacements.
Commissioner Eggert asked if we are losing money in the long
run because we are not looking at a higher level of equipment
than what we are purchasing, and Sonny Dean, Director of General
Services, explained that it is hard to justify the initial amount
whenever you step up into very expensive equipment like the Mack
or the Reo. It just is not cost effective.

Commissioner Eggert emphasized that she has been hearing
maintenance complaints from the people who are using the
equipment, and Director Dean felt that we have been busy
repairing when we should have been replacing.
Director Davis advised that they try to maintain some
versatility in the equipment.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously awarded
IRC Bid #335 in the amount of $34,495 to the low
bidder, General GMC, West Palm Beach, for (1) new

Available revenues less ccamitted expenditures = $255,441. Of this figure,
approximately $50,000 can only be- used for tree planting or boating
improvement. The excess $200,441 is uncommitted. Also, the anticipated
Tourist Tax Revenue is projected to generate $200,000 for Golden Sands Park
improvements if approved by the voters.
With this revenue stream possible, the County Public Works staff and the
Parks and Recreation Committee recommends proceeding now with the
preparation of Architectural/Engineering design plans and specifications -
for construction Golden Sands Beach Park Phase I and the proposed South
County Regional Park (Phase I).
RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING
It is recannended that staff be authorized to negotiate a Supplemental
Agreement with Mayes, Suthard, and Etheredge, Inc., Orlando, F1. for
preparation construction plans and specifications for Golden Sands Park and
the South County Regional Park. Funding to be from FY 86/87 Parks Budget -
Capital Outlay and Park Trust Fund Account.
Commissioner Eggert assumed that when we are talking about
using money for the South County Regional Park, we are referring
to the property off of Oslo Road that we are considering
purchasing, but pointed out that perhaps we would decide not to
purchase that property. She wished to know how we are paying for
the work being done by Mayes, Sudderth, Etheredge.
Commissioner Bird, Chairman of the Parks & Recreation
Committee, explained that they have been authorized to do a
preliminary conceptual plan of the parks as to what would go in
there and what size property is needed, and that money was
already allocated at budget time under Parks S Recreation.
Commissioner Eggert felt that the memo reads as if they are
asking for it again, and Public Works Director Davis explained
that they are asking for approval to go from the conceptual
design and program development into an actual design with
contract documents, working drawings, and authorization to go out
for bids. Director Davis expected the capital design to be ready
15
BOOK 67 390
r -
FEB 2'4 1987
BOOR b f'1. E 39,
sometime this week, but did not feel they would be negotiating
anything until after the Board approved the conceptual design.
Commissioner Bird felt we are ready to do that on Golden
Sands, but agreed that it is premature for the South County
Regional Park. He suggested that we give approval today to take
that step once the property is acquired.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved
staff's recommendation subject to the land being
purchased for the South County Regional Park.
Commissioner Bowman questioned the $80,000 funds for the
Earman Park Improvements, and Director Davis advised that the
$40,000 matching funds would be coming trom the FIND grant, but
they are not sure that they will be spending all of the $80,000.
The improvements include some boat docks, nature trails, picnic
shelters, etc. The big question now is how to handle restroom
facilities, as there is no electricity on the island. We might
have to put some portable toilets over there, but that would mean
a weekly maintenance problem. How that problem is solved depends
on whether we spend $80,000 or $50,000. One option is to run
electricity to the island, but that might not be economically
feasible.
Commissioner Bowman just felt it was a lot of money, and
wanted to be sure where it is coming from and how it is to be
spent. She wished to know what they have decided to do before
they go ahead with building the nature trails.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
Mr. Ed Schlitt, developer, is preparing plat drawings to subdivide a large
tract of land east of Old Dixie Hwy. , south of 1st Street. Since a legal
Positive outfall does not exist in this area, Mr. Schlitt, acting through
his engineer (Carter Associates), has acquired drainage easements to
connect his property to existing storm sewers beneath the FEC Railroad. At
this time, he is requesting that the County accept the dedication of these
easements and the maintenance of a future drainage system that he will
construct.
ALTERNATIVES AMID ANALYSIS
Staff concurs that a drainage system is needed in this area to serve many
parcels both to the north and south. County acceptance to maintain the
future drainage system would assure that the system functions properly.
PECONAENDATIONS AND FUNDING -
Staff recommends acceptance of these easement. No funding is necessary.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously accepted
two drainage easements east of Old Dixie Highway south
of 1st Street S.W., as recommended by staff.

General Sery ces of the Contract for
• Construction
Substantial Completion is defined in Article 8.1.3 of the General
Conditions of the Contract for Construction as,
"the Date certified by the Architect when construction is
sufficiently complete, in accordance with the Contract Documents,
so the Owner can occupy or utilize the work or designated portion
thereof for the use for which it is intended."
The first Certificate of Substantial Completion was submitted in
December. Staff did not agree with the Architect, and after meeting
with all parties involved, that submittal was voided.
The Architect has determined, on the basis of an inspection, that the
-project is substantially complete as per the contract documents, and
issued the Certificate along with applicable "punch -list" items. The
Contractor has twenty-eight (28) days to complete that list.
Commissioner Bird was concerned about the amount of paper
used to copy the architect's punch list that is included in
today's backup material. He felt it would have been sufficient
to have one copy of the punch list put on file in the Commission
Office.
General Services Director Sonny Dean confirmed that the
punch list has been completed, except for one sign.
Chairman Scurlock understood that the only remaining items
are the switches and the acoustical problem, but Director Dean
emphasized that those items are design problems, not contractor
problems. The Certificate of Occupancy has not been issued as
yet, but the inspection was scheduled for yesterday.
Chairman Scurlock asked what documentation we have from the
Architect on those two design problems, because when we met with
18
them they indicated that both problems would be resolved at their
expense.
Director Dean advised that he has a couple of letters from
the Architect plus a record of phone calls and conversations that
took place between the Architect and himself. He also had a copv
of the letter he wrote to the Architect's project representative
outlining the conversation that he and Chairman Scurlock had with
Pat Carroll, President of Frizzell Architects.
Commissioner Eggert asked how the rusted mirrors and
stairwells were taken care of, and Director Dean explained that
the mirrors were replaced and the stairwells were refinished
after the rust was removed.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously accepted
the Certificate of Substantial Completion issued by
Frizzell Architects on the construction of Phase I of
the Indian River County Jail.

Planning & Devel6ptnent Director TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
THROUGH: Stan Boling
Chief, Current Development�FROM: David C. Nearing REFERENCES: abandonment
Staff Planner 4�� DAVEII
It is requested that the data presented herein be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their
regular meeting of February 24, 1987.
DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
Coastal Technology Corporation, acting as agent on behalf of Mr. &
Mrs. Henry Goosen, has submitted a petition for- abandonment of a
portion of Azalea Lane within the Oceanaire Heights Subdivision
north of C.R. 510 on the north half of the Barrier Island. The
Goosens own three lots located to the north of the right-of-way in
question. It is their intention to develop these lots for
duplexes.
The petitioners believe that abandonment of this section of
right-of-way will permit better utilization of the three lots
currently intended for development.
Per guildelines established by the ..Board of County Commissioners,
the petition was reviewed by all County divisions and utility
providers having _jurisdiction within the right-of-way. All
reviewing agencies have recommended approval of the abandonment.
However, the County Road and Bridge Department has requested that
a public utility and drainage easement be retained through the
center and along the east side of the right-of-way. The peti-
tioner has agreed to this request.
ANALYSIS:
This 70 foot wide unimproved portion of right-of-way is not a part
of the roadway -system as noted -on the County Thoroughfare Plan
roadway system and is not needed as part of the thoroughfare
system. Also, this portion of Azalea Lane dead -ends at the west
-property line (rear yard ) of two lots in the Summerplace
Subdivision Unit 3. Both of these lots have frontage on another
street. Thus the Azalea Lane right-of-way shall never be extended
or improved, and is of no further value to the County.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the County abandon its rights to the 70 foot
wide portion of right-of-way with -the exception of the requested
drainage and utilities easement, as noted in the attached resolu-
tion, and that the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners
be authorized to execute the attached resolution [Attachment #3].
23 FE 2 1987,gooK ra��g,
FEB 24 1987 BOOK 67 pnE399
Planner David Nearing advised that the lots in Summerplace
Subdivision are 70 feet wide.
Commissioner Bird was concerned about giving away a lot of
this size, and wondered if it was a buildable lot.
Mr. Nearing explained that piece would not become a lot. By
law, once a right-of-way is abandoned, 500 of the right-of-way
goes to each adjacent property owner, which is where it was
removed from when the plat was created. This is County property,
which was given to us for a specific purpose, and since it is no
longer deemed necessary for that purpose, it will go back on the
tax rolls.
Attorney Vitunac explained that our standard procedure is
just to abandon whatever county interest there is and let the
adjoining property owners or developer fight it out, and if they
need quit claim deeds jointly to establish title, that becomes
their problem. Otherwise, every time we abandon one, it would
mean a title search and perhaps litigation with the property
owners.
Commissioner Bowman felt that sometimes it would be worth
doing a title search, especially when waterfront property is
concerned.
Attorney Michael O'Haire, although not representing the
applicant, wished to point out that the county actually is not
giving away anything of value. In 9 cases out of 10 when you
have a dedication in a plat, the County does not own this real
estate; they simply have an easement for utilities, ingress,
egress, etc., and when you lay the easement over the value of
that property, it destroys the tax value. The owners of the fee,
the adjacent owners, own underneath the easement, and if the
county cannot use it for access, then all it is giving up is the
right to use it for that specific purpose.
Chairman Scurlock asked how it is handled when the County
has purchased the right-of-way, and Attorney O'Haire advised that
usually you buy the fee.
Commissioner Bowman disagreed with Attorney O'Haire about
this having no use to the County because she believed open spaces
such as this are going to be invaluable as more and more people
move in and we start looking like Ft. Lauderdale.
Attorney O'Haire agreed that if the County has a legitimate,
foreseeable use for this, then it should be retained.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter.
Michael Walter of Coastal Technology Corporation, concurred
with staff's recommendation, and felt it is in the County's
interest for tax generation purposes to have the abutting
property owners regain their interest to this pr-operty. He urged
the Board's approval of the abandonment.
There being no others who wished to be heard in this matter,
the Chairman declared the Public Hearing closed.
Utilities Director Terry Pinto pointed out that we do not
have easement rights down the streets of Oceanaire Heights
Subdivision, and suggested that if we give that easement back,
we have the owners agree that the County will have a 10 -ft.
easement for drainage and utilities. He felt that would be an
equitable exchange for abandoning the right-of-way.
Chairman Scurlock agreed, because if we were to put
utilities in there, it would be out front, not in the back.
Mr. Nearing explained that the easement along the rear lot
line is a continuation of an easement which runs along all rear
lot lines in Oceanaire Heights Subdivision; therefore, that
easement is necessary for drainage.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED
by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously adopted
Resolution 87-21, providing for the closing, abandon-
ment, and vacation of a parcel of right-of-way known as
Azalea Lane, reserving unto the County an easement for
drainage and utility purposes; and specified that the
County retain easements for drainage and utilities.

DISCUSSION REGARDING RESIDENTIAL STORMWATER DRAINAGE - REQUEST BY
TILLIE MESEC
The Board reviewed the following memo dated 2/18/87:
TO: The Honorable Members of the DATE: February 18, 1987 FILE:
Board of County Commissioners
THROUGH:
Charles P. Balczun,
County Administrator SUBJECT:
Mrs. Tillie Mesec Complaint -
West Roseland Watershed Area
FROM: James W. Davis P. REFERENCES:
Public Works Director
Mrs. Tille Mesec has asked to appear before the Board to discuss a drainage
complaint. During July, 1982, flooding occurred through the Mesec proper-
ty. That was a year when rainfall was abnormally high (76"). There has
been no recurrence since then of that magnitude. _
Staff recommends that since only a few property owners are involved in this
request, a solution should be implemented when - the upstream property
develops in the City of Sebastian. This property should retain its on-site
runoff and a legal positive outfall then be required by Sebastian.
Mrs. Mesec thanked the Board for affording her the
opportunity to appear here this morning, and asked for the
Board's help with regard to water run-off. She explained that
two new homes have been built west of her residence on 2-1/2
acres of property she formerly owned. Because of the new
requirements in the Stormwater Management Ordinance, these homes
are built very high and water is running off of these properties
into her property. Mrs. Mesec did not teel that one house has
complied with Ordinance 86-36 because the swale is inadequate to
handle the runoff water. She emphasized that this area in
Roseland is a watershed area with intermittent ponds and low
lands where water runs continuously.
Commissioner Bird understood that the issue is whether the
swale ditch is adequate in terms of Ordinance 86-36, but
28
Commissioner Eggert understood that the swale had been deepened
in the last few months.
Mrs. Mesec pointed out that if it had been deepened, it
still had not been adequate to handle the flow of water from the
heavy rainfall during the holidays.
Director Davis advised that staff feels that the swale
between the properties is adequate. It does meet the definition
of a swale as established by the DER. A topographical survey
shows that the Swale is there and will do the job unless we have
a situation like we had in 1982 when we had over 70" inches of
rainfall.
Chairman Scurlock asked how deep it would have to be to
handle that situation, and Director Davis said that he did not
think the Board would want it that deep. He felt the solution
would be to manage the upstream properties in Sebastian, but
staff has not been able to reach the owner, Mr. Alexander Boehm,
by letter or telephone. Staff has discussed this problem with
several officials of the City of Sebastian, but understand that
Mr. Boehm does not have any plans to develop the property at this
time.
Mrs. Mesec advised that she has the address and telephone
number of the attorney representing the owner of that property.
Commissioner Bowman agreed that the problem is the sheet
flow coming in from the City of Sebastian and felt that if that
problem were alleviated, these people would not have any
problems.
Commissioner Bird pointed out that in the meantime Mrs.
Mesec and others have chosen to develop their homes in the middle
of a sheet flow situation, and he did not know if the Board had
the ability to go back and correct those problems.
Chairman Scurlock understood that the swales can be dug
deeper if Mrs. Mesec wishes to pay for it.
Mrs. Mesec felt it was the contractor's responsibility, but
Director Davis pointed out that the contractor has satisfied the
29 BOOK 67 0
FEB 2;4 1987
r
FEB 24 1987 h.
BOOK F Fr`.uE 05
requirements and anything further would be at Mrs. Mesec's
expense.
Bill Meager of Engineering showed a video tape of the area,
and Commissioner Eggert -asked if the grass that was planted in
the swale made the drainage less effective.
Director Davis felt it had to some extent, but pointed out
that if grass is not planted, it creates an erosion problem.
Mrs. Mesec believed that staff favors the developer or
contractor in situations where there is a question of compliance
with the requirements of the ordinance, and Mr. Meager still
maintained that the contractor has taken every precaution to meet
these measures.
Director Davis assured Mrs. Mesec that staff has been
watching that area and when it is developed, the County will make
every effort to assist the City of Sebastian in solving the
problem.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously accepted
staff's evaluation that the existing drainage that has
been created meets the requirements of Ordinance 86-36
as written; and instructed staff to continue working
with the City of Sebastian and the upland property
owner to try to accomplish a better system that would
have less impact on Mrs. Mesec's property in the
future.
Mrs. Mesec thanked the Commissioners for allowing her the
privilege of being heard today.

regular meeting of February 24, 1987.
DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS

requesting to rezone approximately .76 acres located on the east
side of Old Dixie Highway and the south side of Highland Drive
from CG, General Commercial District, to CH, Heavy Commercial
District.

The applicant proposes to develop this site for a bakery
distribution center with accessory retail sales of day-old bread.
On January 8, 1987, the Planning -and Zoning Commission voted
5 -to -0 to recommend approval.of this request.
ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS
In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the appli-
cation will be presented. The analysis will include a descrip-
tion of the current and future land uses of the site and sur-
rounding areas, potential impacts on- the transportation and
utility systems, and any significant adverse impacts on environ-
mental quality.
Existing Land Use Pattern
The subject property and the land south of it is undeveloped.
North of the subject property is a convenience store and the Vero
_--Highlands Welcome Center zoned CG. Further north, is a
-contractors trade building zoned CH. East of the subject
property, across the F.E.C. Railroad, is a vacant lot zoned CG
and a service station zoned CH. West of the subject property,
across Old Dixie Highway, are single-family residences zoned
RS -6, Single -Family Residential District.
Future Land Use Pattern
The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property and all of
the land around it as part of the U.S. 1 MXD, Mixed -Use District
(up to 6 units/acre). Further west, 300 feet west of Old Dixie
Highway, the land is designated as LD -2, Low -Density Residential
2 (up to 6 units/acre).
The proposed CH zoning is in conformance with the MXD land use
designation and is consistent with the existing CH zoning to the
south.
Transportation Svstem
The subject property has frontage on 20th Place S.E. (Highland
Drive S.E.) and Old Dixie Highway (both classified as secondary
collector streets on the Thoroughfare Plan). The maximum
development of the subject property under the proposed CH zoning
could generate up to 71 average annual daily trips.
Environment
The subject property is not designated as environmentally
sensitive nor is it in a flood -prone area.
Utilities
There is a County watermain located on the west side of Old Dixie
Highway north of 20th place. County, wastewater facilities are
not available.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the above analysis, including the Planning and Zoning
Commission's recommendation, staff recommends approval.
Commissioner Bowman asked if this would create a nuisance
for the single family residences to the west across Old Dixie
Highway, since there may be Fate night or early morning
deliveries.
Richard Shearer, Chief of Long -Range Planning, stated that
there definitely will be pickups as this will be a distribution
center, and while there is no baking on the premises at present,
they do have the potential to come back in and request it.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he
declared the Public Hearing closed.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously adopted
Ordinance 87-20, amending the Zoning Ordinance and the
Zoning Map for the property described herein.

DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS
The County is initiating a request to rezone -approximately 175
acres located south of 130th Street -(Gibson Street) and east of
80th Avenue (Estes Street) in Roseland from A-1, Agricultural
District (up to .2 units/acre), RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential
District (up to 6 units/acre), and RMH-6, Mobile Home Residential
District (up to 6 units/acre), to ROSE -4, Roseland Residential
District (up to 4 units/acre).
On November 18, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners adopted
the ROSE -4 district. The. ROSE -4• district was specifically
designed for that part of Roseland that has traditionally
contained a mix of single-family dwellings and mobile homes.
On January 8, 1987, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
5 -to -0 to recommend approval of rezoning all 175 acres.
On February 12, .1987, the Planning -and Zoning Commission
discussed the five -acre cemetary property which is included in
this rezoning request. After conducting considerable research,
the staff has determined that there are probably bodies buried in
this cemetary. The Planning and Zoning Commission indicated that
the Board should be aware of this when they consider this
rezoning.
ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS
in this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the appli-
cation will be presented. The analysis will include a descrip-
tion of the current and future land uses of the site and sur-
rounding areas, potential impacts on the transportation and
-utility systems, and any significant adverse impacts on environ-
mental quality.
Existing Land Use Pattern
The subject property consists of approximately 110 mobile homes,
seven single-family dwellings, and vacant land. North of the
subject property, across Gibson Street, is a garbage transfer
station, VICO aluminum, a mobile home, a mini -storage facility
and vacant land zoned IL, Light Industrial District, in the
unincorporated part of the County, and a warehouse and vacant
land in the City of Sebastian. East and south of the subject
property is undeveloped property in the City of Sebastian. West
of the subject property, across 80th Avenue, are single-family
dwellings and vacant lots zoned RS -3, Single -Family Residential
District.
Future Land Use Pattern
The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as MD -1,
Medium -Density Residential 1 (up to 8 units/acre). The land
north of the subject property is designated as part of the 15
acre Gibson Street Industrial Node. The land south and east of
the subject property is in the City of Sebastian. The land west
of the subject property is designated as LD -1, Low -Density
Residential .1 (up to 3 units/acre).
The subject property contains a large area that was under review.
when the ROSE -4 district was originally proposed. Throughout the
discussion and adoption of the ROSE -4 district, the general
consensus of opinion was that it should only be utilized in areas
that already contained a mixture of single-family houses and
mobile homes and should not be allowed to expand beyond that
�_�area. For this reason, the staff has-prepared.an alternative to.
rezoning this: entire 175 acre area to ROSE -4. The staff's
alternative (attachment #3) would rezone only the area that -
contains a mixture of single-family houses and mobile homes and
would not include the large tracts of undeveloped land in this
area.
Transportation System
The subject*property has direct access to a large number of local
streets as well as Gibson Street (classified .as a secondary
collector street on the Thoroughfare Plan).
Environment
The subject property is not designated as environmentally
sensitive nor is it in a flood -prone area.
Utilities
County water and wastewater facilities are not currently
available for the subject property.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended that all 175 acres
of the subject property be rezoned to ROSE -4. The staff respects
the Planning and Zoning Commission's opinion. However, based on
the above analysis, staff recommends that only 100 acres which is
outlined in attachment #3 be rezoned from RMH-6 to ROSE -4.
Chairman Scurlock understood that the basic difference
between staff's recommendation and that of the Planning & Zoning
Commission is that the striped areas on the map are to be
excluded:

Commissioner
Bird asked why the P & Z Commission
felt so
adamant about including the whole area, and Chairman Scurlock
felt it was due to pressure at the Public Hearing.
Commissioner Wheeler asked how those areas that staff wants
to exempt would be accessed, and Richard Shearer, Chief of
Long -Range Planning, advised that it would be through the mixed
neighborhood. He believed it would be difficult to develop a
subdivision back in there when you have to go through a mixed
area to get to it.
Commissioner Wheeler wondered if there was some way to
separate those neighborhoods as far as entrances are concerned,
but Mr. Shearer stressed that staff is not recommending that
these areas be made RS -3 today; staff is recommending that the
striped areas be deleted because it does not have the mixture to
the extent the others have.
Public Works Director Jim Davis noted that there are mostly
unimproved streets in this area, the only paved roads being Lane,
Gibson and Josie Streets.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard.
Attorney Michael O'Haire, representing a number of property
owners within the ROSE -4 area, did not feel that this proposed
rezoning is very controversial. He felt we have to be realistic
because there is industrial on 3 sides of this area. On the
north is the garbage dumpm and the airport is on the south. In
order to get to the areas that staff has proposed to be excluded,
you have to go through what everyone concedes should be ROSE -4,
regardless of how ROSE -4 is defined in the next Public Hearing
this morning. Attorney O'Haire recommended that the Board
rezone the whole thing with the exception of Mr. Sembler's
property, if he feels he can Five with Agriculture.

you will allow me this continuation of Agricultural zoning as future plans just

will not have a negative impact on the use or value of the surroundtng propertys

Mr. Shearer pointed out that staff is recommending that Mr.

There being no others who wished to be heard in this matter,
the Chairman declared the Public Hearing closed.

Commissioner Bird felt Mr. Sembler should be aware that if
he wishes to change his property from agricultural, it is very
likely that it will be zoned ROSE -4.
Mr. Mensing advised that Mr. Sembler does not have a problem
with that.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion
was voted on and carried unanimously.
Robert Keating, Director of Planning & Development, advised
that staff does not feel that any zoning changes are needed with

Planning & Deve opmeYit Director RICT TO PROVIDE ADDITION -
gm AL HOME OCCUPATION USES
FROM: Richard M. Shearer, REFERENCES:
Chief, Long -Range Planning
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their
regular meeting of February 24, 1987.
DESCRIPTION& CONDITIONS
The County is initiating a request to consider an amendment to
the Rose -4, Roseland Residential District (up to 4 units/acre),
to allow additional home occupation uses which are not allowed in
other residential zoning districts.
On November 18, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners adopted
the ROSE -4 district. At the public hearing, a request was made
to expand the scope of the ROSE -4 district to accommodate a
number of existing commercial uses in the Roseland area which are
not currently authorized horde occupation uses. However, since
that request had not been advertised for discussion, the Board
did not take action on the request but instructed the staff to
schedule it for a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning
Commission at their first meeting in January.
On January 8, 1987, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
5 -to -0 to recommend that this request be --denied. The Commission
gave as their reason for denial the- fact that the proposed
ordinance is inconsistent with the County's existing home
occupation regulations.
ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS
The staff has prepared an ordinance amendment proposal for the
ROSE -4 district which would allow in that district certain home
occupation uses which are not permitted in other residential
zoning districts. These additional uses include metal working
and casting, contractor's office and storage, lawn mower and
small engine sales, service and repair, and service businesses.
In addition, there is criteria for the establishment of these
uses, and site plan approval would be required for any new home
occupation uses.
In analyzing this request, the staff compared the proposed new
home occupation uses and criteria with the existing allowed home
occupation uses and criteria in the General Provisions section of
the Zoning Ordinance. The General Provision section contains a
list of authorized home occupations, a list of nonauthorized home
occupations, and criteria for the establishment of home
occupations (a copy of these regulations is attached).
The staff notes that the four home occupation uses proposed for
the ROSE -4 district are not listed as authorized home occupations
under section 25 (D) 3. of the home occupation regulations.
Moreover, the following proposed uses cannot meet the below cited
provision of Section 25 (D);
43 B00� rr,E_
FEB 4-
F E 411987
BOOK 67
1) Metal working and casting; does not comply with section
25 (d) (6) h.: Equipment processes. No equipment or -
process shall be used in such home occupation which
creates noise, vibration, glare, fumes, odors, or
electrical interference detectable to the normal senses
off the premises;
2) Contractor's office and storage; does not comply with
section 25 (D) (6) d. Outdoor display or storage;
3) Lawn mower and small engine sales, service and repair;
does not comply with section 25 (D) (6) b. Merchandise.
No stock in trade shall be displayed or sold on the
premises.
The staff feels that the proposed home occupation uses are
inconsistent with the current ordinance. In addition, staff does -
not feel that the proposed uses can meet criterion (B) (4) (e)
(4) of the proposed_ ordinance which states that: "(4) traffic is
not generated in excess of that customary for residential uses."
The proposed uses would increase the amount of traffic in the
area., resulting in an increase in truck and heavy equipment
traffic, and would increase noise and other adverse
characteristics. This increased traffic would -not only have an
adverse impact on this area, but would impact the residential
area between the ROSE -4 area and Roseland Road to the north.
Legally established commercial uses in this area are
grandfathered in. This amendment would allow many more
commercial uses to be established in this area.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the above analysiq, the .staff and the Planning and
Zoning Commission feel that the proposed home occupations are
inconsistent with the current home occupation regulations of the
County's Zoning Ordinance and recommend that this ordinance not
be approved.
Richard Shearer, Chief of Long -Range Planning, presented
staff's recommendation for denial of the request for expansion of
uses.
Commissioner Bird asked why this is County -initiated, and
Mr. Shearer explained that the Board directed staff to look at
this and come back with an ordinance and a recommendation for the
Planning & Zoning Commission. He noted that the Board did not
indicate at that time that they would necessarily approve the
expansion of uses just that they wanted to be able to take a
look at it. This came up when the ROSE -4 zoning district was
created in November.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter..
Attorney Michael O'Haire, representing.a number of property
owners in the just established ROSE -4 District, believed he has , -a.
44
solution to this problem that everyone could live with.
Referring to a map of the area, he pointed out that this property
is surrounded on 3 sides by industrial zoning and uses and on
2-1/2 sides by the City of Sebastian. He stressed that what we
are talking about today is not proposed uses, but uses that are
in place. Attorney O'Haire presented a folder of 9 colored
photographs showing the various industrial uses. (Photographs
are on file in the Office of the Clerk to the Board.) He
stressed that these are family -operated businesses, which are
grandfathered in, and what is being proposed might deal death
sentences to them so that their children could not run them in
the future. He emphasized that they are asking for the expansion
of uses not because of what is going to be there, but because of
what is there today.
Attorney O'Haire called the Board's attention to 3 limitations
on the home occupation use that he has drafted into the proposed
ordinance for this ROSE -4 area which he believed would protect
everyone in the future:
1) As a prerequisite to home occupational use in the ROSE -4, you
must go through the site plan process with all of its safeguards
to protect the neighborhood and the community;
2) The home occupations can be used only by members of the
family living on the property; and,
3) The property has to qualify and continue to qualify for
Homestead Exemption in the Property Appraiser's Office. If the
property does not qualify for Homestead Exemption, the right to a
permitted use of a home occupation disappears.
Chairman Scurlock asked if all the existing home occupations
are known and listed, and Attorney O'Haire stated that he knows
in his own mind what is there, and has tried to address those
uses in the drafted ordinance.
Chairman Scurlock felt there is no question that this is a
unique area and that is why the Commission has been so torn on
trying to address the issue.

Commissioner Eggert asked
if this would exclude
bringing in
employees from the outside. Attorney O'Haire felt it would, and
Mr. Shearer nodded in agreement.
Commissioner Wheeler believed that some of them already have
employees from the outside.
Fred Mensing, resident of Roseland, stated that he knows of
43 people in the area who are engaged in some form of illegal
commercial activity, and many of them are reluctant to come
forward by name. He felt they should be made legal, if for no
other reason, than to discourage them from their option to annex
into the abutting industrial district in the City of Sebastian.
He believed this annexation can be stopped if the Board creates a
new chapter in the ordinance entitled: Home Family Business -
ROSE -4.
Commissioner Eggert understood that this proposed ordinance
is only for ROSE -4.
C. N. Cury, 1285 79th Avenue, Roseland, stated that his
small business has been licensed since 1967, and emphasized that
when he bought in that area it was legal to have such things as
boat marinas, garages, golt courses, grocery stores, etc.
However, the zoning has been changed twice since then, and now
his business is grandfathered in, which doesn't allow him to
expand or rebuild if there is major damage from a fire. He
stressed that although he owns 2-1/2 acres, he still cannot
expand his business. He needs to expand, but he and his sons are
left with no option to do so. Mr. Cury regretted that he had not
opposed the previous rezoning changes, and felt that if the
proposed ordinance is not passed,. he would have to seek some
other recourse. He trusted that the Board will see that he and
his neighbors have been making their living for many years from
these small businesses, and urged the Board to make those uses
legal.
46
Chairman Scurlock fel*t he was hearing that whilethe
community does not want to go to commercial, they feel that some
restrictions are needed.
Attorney O'Haire pointed out that the reason they agreed to
the site plan process.i.s because they don't want to open it up to
new things; they just want the Board to recognize the uses that
are in place in this area and make them legal.
Commissioner Wheeler asked about the additional home
occupation uses listed.in the ordinance drafted by Attorney
O'Haire, such as metal workings, castings, contractors' offices,
lawnmower repairs, etc.
Attorney O'Haire explained that those uses are broken out
from the others to recognize uses that are in place in this area
and try to make them legal.
Commissioner Wheeler felt that some of the restrictions or
limitations would not apply, such as, "products that are not
offered for sale to the general public," or "any evidence of
occupation be screened from the street by landscaping." He
understood that some of these requirements would have to be
applied to existing businesses, and Attorney O'Haire stated that
these requirements would apply only if the existing businesses
are expanded. He realized that if Mr. Cury wishes to expand, he
will have to go through the site plan process.
Attorney Vitunac noted that if this ordinance passes as
written, Mr. Cury would still be in violation because he has
people working there who are not part of his family.
Attorney O'Haire understood that he would not be able to add
anyone new to his payroll outside of the family, but Attorney
Vitunac felt that the question is whether he would have to fire
people on his existing payroll.
Chairman Scurlock understood that the intent is to make him
legal and also let him come under the new ordinance.
Attorney O'Haire agreed that is what is intended, but felt
that if it reads otherwise, it needs to be addressed. It is not
�� 7 47 BOOK 67 F�,{U 4
wFE B 2 he M7 1
BOOK 6 PAGE 423
intended that this ordinance be retroactive in effect and make
Mr. Cury's business non -grandfathered and illegal.
Commissioner Eggert understood that the way the ordinance is
written would mean that if Mr. Cury's business burned down and he
wanted to rebuild, only his family could run the business.
Attorney O'Haire advised that the rule of thumb is that if
destruction is more than 50%, it comes under the new rules.
Robert Keating, Director of Planning 8 Development,
explained that the problem is that Code Enforcement does not have
a list of all the existing businesses. He suggested that the
Board establish a date whereby all existing businesses before
that date would be grandfathered in.
Commissioner Bird was concerned about how Mr. Cury would be
attected by the limitation of having the business run only by
those family members living on the site. He believed that Mr.
Cury's children will probably want to get their own places at
some point in the future.
Mr. Cury was concerned about that limitation also, and
stressed that he was legal for a long time before the zoning
changes grandtathered him.
Attorney O'Haire emphasized that they want to be able to
expand or sell.
Mr. Cury felt that because he has been there so long and
started out on a legal basis, he should not be zoned out of
business. He suggested that his business be addressed as
something unique.
Commissioner Bird felt that the problem is that Mr. Cury's
situation is not unique; there are many others like it up there.
He believed these small business people are the salt of the
earth. He was surprised, though, that more owners in that area
were not in attendance today.
Mr. Cury explained that many of the people who are running.
illegal businesses in that area are very afraid of being visible.
48
Commissioner Bowman felt that we should grant them an
immunity or have them come in and get vested.
Attorney O'Haire urged the Board to do both.
There being no others who wished to be heard in this matter,
the Chairman declared the.Public Hearing closed.
Chairman Scurlock suggest°ed that the Board go ahead and pass
the ordinance today, and then address the specifics that affect
Mr. Cury and a few others, which will give staff a little time to
come up with a plan of attack.
Commissioner Wheeler was in favor of the ordinance because
he felt that new people will be aware of the existing uses and
can choose whether or not to move into the area. In addition, he
felt the attitude of the people in that neighborhood is live and
let live, and stressed that the people up there have pride in
their homes, businesses, and neighborhood.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, that the Board adopt Ordinance
87-22, providing additional home occupation uses; and
direct staff to find a way to recognize the existing
businesses.
Attorney Vitunac advised that there is a way to see if the
use is legal, but Commissioner Eggert said that was not the
intent of the Motion. The Motion was to find a way to make the
existing uses legal.
Attorney Vitunac understood that the intent of the Motion is
to direct the County Attorney to find a vehicle for accomplishing
making what is there legal, and to make the people who are
legally grandfathered in a valid conforming use in the future.
Commissioner Bowman asked for clarification of how we are
planning to legalize the grandfathered businesses, and Attorney
Vitunac explained that first a study would be done to find out
who is grandfathered under this new ordinance and then write a

second ordinance, changing the ROSE -4 criteria, in order to make
them a valid and conforming use in the future.
Chairman Scurlock felt the clear intent here has been
expressed, and Commissioner Eggert emphasized that in seconding
the Motion, her intent is that this will be applied to only the
ROSE -4 area.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion
was voted on and carried unanimously.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
On January 27, 1987, the Board of County --Commissioners autho-
rized staff to draft a code enforcement board ordinance amend-
ment and schedule a public hearing for its adoption. The basis'
for the amending ordinance is to reflect changes made to
Section 162.01 of the Florida Statutes, et seg., which was
amended by the State Legislature in the 1986 Session. Section
162.01 of the Florida Statutes, et. seq., authorizes local code
enforcement boards -and governs their procedure.
With reference to changes made at the State level, the proposed
amendments would clarify the following in the County's Code
Enforcement Board ordinance:
If a case is scheduled for an evidentiary hearing, and a
violation is corrected and then recurs, the case shall be
presented to the Code Enforcement Board even if the
violation has been corrected prior -to a Board hearing;
If an order of the Code Enforcement Board has not been
complied with by a set time, or if the same violation is
repeated by the same violator, a fine may be imposed for
each day the violation continues past a set compliance
date, and a hearing shall not be necessary for issuance of
the order; -
No lien created pursuant to the provisions of the Code
Enforcement Board ordinance may be foreclosed on real
property which is a homestead under Section 4, Article X
of the State Constitution; and
No lien filed against a property for a violation shall _
continue for a period longer than five (5) years after
recording, unless within that time an action to foreclose
on the lien is commenced (changed from the present two (2)
maximum time limit for foreclosure commencement).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve
the proposed ordinance amendment for adoption.
Attorney Vitunac explained that this amendment brings the
old Code Enforcement Ordinance into compliance with the State.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, the
Chairman declared the Public Hearing closed.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously adopted
Ordinance 87-23, amending that part of the Code of Laws
and Ordinances entitled "Code Enforcement Board".

the personal property, but shall not be deemed to be a court
judgement except for enforcement purposes. After one year
from the filing of any such lien which remains unpaid, the

close on the lien. No lien created pursuant to the provisions
of this chapter may be foreclosed on real property which is a
homestead under Section 4, Article X of the State Consti-

Robert M. Keat L ng, ICP SUBJECT: H. H. , FLOYD SUBDIVISION
Planning & Develop ent Director REGULATION WAIVER
FROM: Stan Boling ./o�- 6, REFERENCES: HH Floyd
Chief, Current Development STAN3
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their
regular meeting of February 24, 1987.
BACKGROUND AND CONDITIONS:
Mr. Fred Mensing, on behalf of property owner- H. H. Floyd, is
requesting a' waiver from section 6(a)(3) of the subdivision
ordinance. Such a waiver would allow an existing parcel (the
subject property) to be split into two parcels, both of which
would lack the minimum road frontage 'required in the subdivision
and zoning ordinances.
The subject property ""is a combination of a 5 acre lot (Lot 14,
A.A. Berry Subdivision) and a parcel consisting of 35' wide strips
that connect Lot 14 to Lot 18. and to- 130th Street (see attachment
#3). This combination was first created in 1979.
In accordance with section 6(a)(3) of the subdivision ordinance
and in accordance with section 29(b) of the zoning code which was
in effect in 1979, lots resulting from a split of the subject
property would have to have at least 701 of frontage on a
dedicated road right-of-way. Since the only dedicated road
rights-of-way in the vicinity are Dale Street and 130th Street,
the subject property cannot be split in such a way so as to
conform with the current frontage requirements.
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS:
The existing subject parcel is -presently "buildable" for one
dwelling unit because Lot 14 is "grandfathered -in" as an old lot
of record. It is the proposed parcel split that would create two
non -conforming parcels lacking the required road frontage.
Alternatives exist whereby the parcel can be developed and conform
with existing regulations. The parcel can be:
1) developed for one dwelling unit;
2) platted and site -planned as a mobile home park as long as a
road right-of-way, at least 50' wide, could be provided to
the site; or
3) combined with adjacent property so as to render a split
creating two parcels, each having a minimum of 70' of
dedicated road frontage.
Section 11 of the subdivision ordinance sets forth four criteria
which must be met before a subdivision waiver may be granted.
Three of these criteria are not met by the request. The criteria
are as follows:
58 BOOK ��� f'i.GE ���
FEB24 1987
F1 E B 2 4. `997
Boos 67 r',,;; ,'�5
"The Board shall not approve a waiver unless it finds all of the
following:
1. The particular physical conditions, shape, or topography of
the specific property involved would cause an undue hardship,
to the applicant if the strict letter of the ordinance is
carried out;
2) The granting of the waiver will not cause injury to adjacent
property or any natural resource;
3) The conditions upon which a request for waiver are based are
unique to the property for which the waiver is sought and are
not generally applicable to other property in the adjacent
areas and do not result from actions of the applicant; and
4) The waiver is consistent with the intent and purpose of the
Indian River County Zoning Ordinance, the Indian River County
Comprehensive Land Use Plan, and this ordinance."
Criterion number one'is not met because many other parcels in the
area (and in the county as a whole) have less or no frontage on a
dedicated road right-of-way. Despite the shape of the parcel, no
hardship exists since the parcel is presently buildable for one
dwelling unit and could be developed as a mobile home park with
additional property.
Criterion number three is not met because the waiver is sought to
facilitate a parcel split proposed by -the applicant himself. Such
a waiver would apply to other properties in the area and the
county whereby parcels with insufficient road frontage could be
created.
Criterion number four is not met b& -cause granting the waiver would
be inconsistent with the clear intent of the subdivision ordinance
and zoning code. A minimum lot frontage standard has been estab-
lished, applied, and met by other properties. A waiver from this
standard would have the effect of creating a new and lower stan-
dard which would render the current requirement meaningless.
Based on the foregoing analysis, staff has concluded that the
applicant has alternatives to develop his property in conformance
with county regulations and that the criteria for granting a
waiver are not satisfied by the request.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners deny the
request to waive the requirements of section 6(a)(3) of the
subdivision ordinance as applied to the subject property.
Commissioner Bowman asked where the present access is to
this lot, and Mr. Boling advised that there is no road between
Gibson & Dade Streets. When this was platted back in 1913, a lot
of these parcels were 5 acres in size and did not have actual
road right-of-way or frontage.
Robert Keating,.Director of Planning & Development, pointed
out that a lot of this has occurred in the Gifford area, and is
a problem in that it creates a situation that becomes unmanage-
able.
59
Commissioner Wheeler suggested that instead of correcting
that situation with an ordinance on the road frontage, we
establish the requirement of having a recorded easement across
the property so that it is part of the deed and is there forever.
Planner Stan Boling felt that standards need to be
established, because there are problems with road upkeep even
when there.is a recorded private easement. Furthermore, if a
parcel does not have access on a dedicated road right-of-way,
there may be problems getting utilities back there.
Commissioner Wheeler pointed out that there are many 5 acre
1300-1400 ft. deep parcels, which could be rezoned rural
residential at 2-1/2 upa and have a common driveway by the use of
an easement.
Director Keating advised that a recent change in the
subdivision ordinance makes it allowable to do a road plat that
can facilitate a lot split, whereby the road does not have to be
paved. However, the road has to be created. Basically, that
provides a means without going through a major expense for a
one -lot split.
Mr. Boling pointed out that the Floyds do not have that
option because they only have 35 feet.
Commissioner Wheeler asked if in this specific case where
there would be one house, whether he would be allowed to have
ingress and egress off of 133th Street.
Mr. Boling believed he probably would be able to get a
right-of-way permit from Public Works for both access points, but
pointed out again that the reason he is allowed to build is
because his lot was created back in 1913 before we had any
requirements for frontage and was grandfathered in.
Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter.
Fred Mensing, resident of Roseland, advised that he is
representing the Floyds. He believed the property to be very
unique for the reason that the U-shaped piece that surrounds Lot
FEB 24 1987BOOK > 7 7
F':jGE r, �
#1E was purchased in fee simple deed. It is not an easement; it
is a land purchase. It has been surveyed and it is land in
place. He pointed out that the Public Works Department has
issued public driveway permits and set grades for culverts which
have been installed for the driveways in both 35 -ft. entrance
ways. He pointed out that there is only one buildable area on
Section 14 because of the 2 -acre lake which was dug in the 1950s.
Mr. Mensing emphasized that the Floyds want to be able to build
two homes on this parcel, and the neighbors in the surrounding
area seem to like the idea. He believed that the logical and
sensible thing to do would be to give these people a variance so
that they can build the road, and stressed that maintenance of
the road would be their responsibility. Mr. Mensing urged the
Board to overlook staff's recommendation and give them a variance
to divide the lot across the middle.
There being no others who wished to be heard in this matter,
the Chairman declared the Public Hearing closed.
Commissioner Bird asked Attorney Vitunac if the Board had
the ability to grant a variance in this specific case where staff
has pointed out that it flails to meet 3 out of 4 criteria.
Attorney Vitunac advised that the Board could direct staff
to change the ordinance to make the waiver requirements fit the
case that Mr. Mensing has presented this morning. However, the
changes would apply county -wide in other instances.
Chairman Scurlock felt in that case we would have to make
the criteria so fine, it would be applicable only to this
specific situation.
Mr. Boling felt that the standards have to be applied
somewhere.
Mr. Mensing added the argument that they have the option of
getting utilities from several sides, but Commissioner Bird felt
the main problem is that the applicant has not met 3 out the 4
criteria for granting a waiver according to the ordinance.

ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bowman, there being no other options, the
Board unanimously denied the request by H. H. Floyd for
a waiver of the subdivision regulations.
UTILITIES DEPARTMENT SPACE ALLOCATION
The. Board reviewed the following memo dated 2/5/87:
TO: The Honorable Members of DATE: February 5, 1987 FILE:
the Board of County Commissioners
SUBJECT: UTILITIES DEPARTMENT
SPACE ALLOCATION
FROM: Charles P. Balczun REFERENCES:
County Administrator Cly
RECOMMENDATION.
Space formerly leased to the Florida Drivers' License Bureau be allocated
to our Utilities Department instead of to the Credit Union.
onrvrnmimn
Pending vacation by the Drivers' License Bureau, the Credit Union sought
to lease the space. At your meeting on March 19, 1986 you authorized the County
Administrator "to negotiate with the Credit Union to take that space".
By letter dated June 30, 1986 General Services Director H.T. Dean 'suggested'
to the Credit Union "that we continue the present lease on a month-to-month
basis..." (copy attached).
ANALYSIS
The Utilities Department is a rapidly growing, customer service organiza-
tion. It currently occupies two separate office blocks in this building.
Allocating the subject space to the Utilities Department would:
.. Enhance productivity and efficiency by bringing all administrative
tasks into a single office area.
.. Provide us with the ability to install a drive up window to facilitate
bill payment by customers and thereby reducing interior building traffic
as well as demand for parking space.
We would, of course, attempt to locate alternative space for the Credit
-Union.

Administrator Balczun advised that the County has offered to
help the Credit Union, in a non-financial way, find a place to
relocate their offices. He understood they were investigating
using Dr. Morgan's office, which was offered to the County.
Chairman Scurlock felt they should be looking for a
permanent location.
Commissioner Bird suggested limiting the parking along 25th
Street to 1 -hour to try to discourage County employees from
utilizing those spaces all day long, but Chairman Scurlock
pointed out that might incur a hardship on people who park there
while undergoing kidney dialysis, which takes longer than one
hour.
Administrator Balczun stated that they would look into the
matter further.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved
staff's recommendation that space formerly leased to
the Florida Driver's License Bureau be allocated to
the County Utilities Department instead of to the
Credit Union.

Mr. Komarinetz advised that we are 6 weeks away from the
official opening of the golf course. Construction has begun on
the cart paths and the temporary clubhouse will be on site
sometime in March. They hope to finish the cart paths on the
north section first, and see where we stand financially before
paving the areas by the clubhouse. He reported that construction
of the cart building is underway, and the completion is expected

The purchase of equipment is almost
finished.
The grass is starting to green up and looks real good.
Considerable discussion took place regarding the benefits of
discounts ottered to residents of the County, and Commissioner
Bird wanted staff to come back to the Board with a better
definition of "county residency". Mr. Komarinetz felt there is
no question that a youth program should be developed. He wished
to begin marketing the summer membership cards if the Board gives
their approval today.

Commissioner
Bird expected that when these rates
are
published, the Commission will receive a lot of criticism from
people who feel the rates are too high for a county -owned course.
He pointed out, however, that the rates are competitive with
other clubs in the area, and that they have to be if the golf
course is to succeed.
Chairman Scurlock emphasized that we built this course at
today's high costs while other clubs in the area were built when
capital costs were much lower.
Chairman Scurlock felt it is going to be important that we
have a professional manager and staff to act as a buffer between
this Board and the golf course, as he did not want to be under
pressure as far as the day-to-day operation is concerned.
Commissioner Bird believed that the Commissioners will
receive phone calls regarding the operation of the course, but
just would have to refer them back to staff.
Director Baird presented the following proposed operating
budget, which is based on 40,000 rounds of golf played annually:

FINANCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT
The Board reviewed the following memo dated 2/24/87:
MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Commissioner Don C. Scurlock, Jr., Chairman
Finance Advisory Committee
DATE: February 24, 1987
SUBJECT: Finance Advisory Committee Recommendations
At their February 19, 1987 meeting, upon listening to a
presentation by Jim Davis, County Public Works Director-,
regarding his department's current capital improvement projects
and projected 20 -year plans for Indian River County, the
Committee made the following two recommendations to the Board of
County Commissioners:
• ON MOTION by Mr. Morrison, SECONDED by Mr. Jordan, the
Committee unanimously recommends that the Board of County
Commissioners hire an additional crew for the Public
Works Department to be used on that department's Petition
Paving Program for the purpose of accelerating the paving
program.
• ON MOTION by Mr. Morrison, SECONDED by Mr. Jordan, the
Committee unanimously recommends that the Board of County
Commissioners hire a ProJect Manager to assist the Public
Works Director in the area of capital projects for Indian
River County. This will allow the Public Works design
engineers to remain on their design projects and not
be constantly interrupted from their design tasks.
Chairman Scurlock reported that the Finance Advisory
Committee made the above recommendations based on the information
presented by Public Works Director Jim Davis at the February 19th
meeting.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously accepted
the recommendations of the Finance.Advisory Committee;
authorized an.additional paving crew for the petition
paving program, and directed Director Davis to
establish a job description and budget for the, position
of Project Manager to assist the*Director of.Public
