The other bid was submitted by Paragon Electric of Vero Beach in the amount of $24,750.00. The 5% Bid Bond was included. The recommendation is to award to Paragon Electric per the attached memo from Lynn Williams. Background The transformer in the Administration Building is no longer manufactured and is at least 25 years old. Also, it is possibly part of the problem with the power outages and computer problems in DP.

TO: Carolyn Goodrich, DATE: May 28, 1987 FILE: Purchasing Manager CFR:OM4' i'� intendent, Buildings & Grounds - SUBJECT: Transformer Replacement Bid REFERENCES: After review of the two bids received for the Administration Building Transformer replacement project I recommend that the project bid be awarded to Paragon Electric, with the following justification: 1) Paragon is the only bidder providing the required bid bond of 5%. -- 2) Review of the Bids show that B&W requires others to make all secondary connections. This does not meet the specifications, as the project is "turn -key" with all connections to the existing buss -bar to be made by the contractor. 3) Although B&W is considerably lower in their bid they did not review or discuss the specifications design or requirements for coordination with myself or the Engineer. Due to the difficult nature of this project and the potential for problems, I feel this is`crucial. 4) Paragon spent several hours of time evaluating and planning the sequence of the project in order to reduce the possibility of problems. In fact, an addendm to the specifications was generated due to Paragon's discussions with the Engineer. L_I As you lozow, this is essentially a re -bid, since the original. bid (Oct. 1985) came in after the start of the Fiscal year and funding was not requested during budget hearings. This project needs to proceed immediately, before we start summer lightning storms. The City of Vero Beach is strongly recLemg this replacement, they have our new transformer waiting, as they can no longer guarantee repair of the existing transformer. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously awarded the Bid for the Transformer Replacement Project 'to Paragon Electric of Vero Beach in the amount of $24,750 as being the best and lowest bid meeting specifications, as recommended by staff..

Balczun, County Administrator strator SUBJECT• Right-of-way Acquisition on 4th Street FROM:C. James W. Davis, P.E., REFERENCES: Ron D. DeGrazia, Brighton Public Works Director Builders, Inc. to Indian River 6-2-87 DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Brighton Builders is purchasing eight lots along 4th Street between 38th Avenue and 35th Avenue. The Builder plans to build eight small houses on 50' x 100' lots. The County presently has a 60' wide dedicated 4th Street right-of-way along the south of the lots. The County Thoroughfare Plan designates 4th Street as a Primary Collector route with a required right -of -Way width of 100'. Additional right-of-way of 40' is required to comply with the Thoroughfare Plan. In order to render a portion of the lots buildable, the developer would be willing to sell to the County the south 25' of the lots which would result in four - 50' x 100' lots which could accommodate four small houses. This would result in an 85' wide right -of --way along 4th Street instead of a 100' right -of --way. To the west of the lots (on 1 and 2, Block C, Clemann Estates Subdivision), a single family house is constructed which would encroach the future 100' right-of- way. Due to this constraint, the future road design would have to be adjusted or the -house purchased for the additional 15' to allow a 100' right-of-way. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The alternatives are as follows: Alternative No. 1 _ Purchase the additional 25' of right-of-way as follows: The North 25' of the South 50' of the following lots; 23 and 24, Block C, 1, 2, 23 and 24, Block F; and 1 and 2 of Block G, Clemann Estates Units No. 1 This would result in an 85' wide right-of-way along 4th Street instead of the 100' as designated in the County Thoroughfare Plan. The cost would be approximately $28,000. Alternative No. 2 Purchase by the. County of the entire eight - 75' x 100' lots which would result in a 135' right-of-way along 4th Street. The cost would be approximately $56,000. z RFICOMIMMATION AND FUNDING Staff re=mOnds purchasing the entire 8 - 75' x 100' lots (alternative # 2). Funding to be by Local Option Gas Tax Revenue. 9 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously, approved Alternative No. 2 authorizing the purchase of t e eight lots as recommended by staff. i PRESENTATION TO COUNTY COMMISSION BY SID POE, SOUTHERNI,BELL Sid Poe of Southern Bell presented a framed front cover of 1 the new 1987-88 phone directory showing the Center of the Arts Building in Indian River County, and Chairman Scurlock expressed the Board's thanks.

JUN 9 '1987 12 BOOK F'A'Ut500 QUN 0 1987 BOOK 68 PAGE 501 County Engineer Ralph Brescia recommended that the Board first consider Items 1-6, which exceed the 67% voluntary criteria, and then consider Items 7-11, which might be a little controversial. Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing on the following projects: 1) 3rd Street from 32nd Avenue to Dead End. 2) 11th Court S.W. North of Oslo Road 3) 18th Avenue from 1st Street. S.W. to 1st Place 4) 17th Avenue, North of 37th Street 5) 14th Avenue from 1st Street S.W. to 2nd Street 6) Commerce Avenue There being no one who wished to be heard, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendations on the 6 projects listed above, at an interest rate of 12%. Item 7 - Sea Turtle Lane, East of AIA Mr. Brescia asked that Item 7 be postponed at this time. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously postponed the consideration of the paving of Sea Turtle Lane, east of AIA, as requested by County Engineer Brescia. Item 8 - St. Christopher Lane, East of AIA Mr. Brescia advised that staff's recommendation is to go ahead with the paving, and Chairman Scurlock understood that the basic purpose of paving the road is to eliminate a grader route, which will result in savings of $150,000 to the County and will eliminate the safety problems involved in taking a grader all that way down AIA. 13 - ;I The Chairman opened the Public Hearing and asked If anyone .,. wished to be heard on the paving of St. Christopher Lane, east of - AIA. Frank Powers, 2225 St. Christopher Lane, explained that 2 years ago a 4" water line was extended down AIA and hocked up to a 6" line on St. Christopher Lane. The residents werelpromised a fire hydrant at that time, but the 4" line was not sufficient for pressure. However, the City of Vero Beach has just started to replace the 4" line with a 12" line, and he wished to see the _ paving of St. Christopher Lane delayed until the 12" line is in place. Mr. Brescia advised that the County would coordinate the paving with the placement of the 12" line. Mr. Powers asked if the paving would include the entrance ways or aprons to the driveways which are right on the county/ property -owner line, and Civil Engineer Michelle Terry stated that the County will pave the street and match AIA, but the responsibility of bringing the pavement up to the driveway aprons will be that of the property owners. Mr. Powers felt it should be the County's respond because it is county land; in addition, the street wouj nicer by having it consistent. Commissioner Eggert understood that it would have ibiIity Id look to be added to the assessment, and Commissioner Bird felt it'sounded like it made sense, but he would hate to make a Motion'if only one property owner there disagreed. He preferred to see us work with the owners to see if there is a way this could be done at the same time as the paving at the owners' expense. Chairman Scurlock suggested that we get with the contractor while he is on the job site and go ahead and do it, anld Ms. Terry felt that could be done, but pointed out that staff would have to contact each of the owners because there is a possibility that not all of them will want a concrete driveway. Some may want asphalt or chattahoochee stone or whatever. 14 JUN 1987 BOOL; 6 I'AGE 504' ,JUN- 198 BOOK 68 DV)E 503 Mr. Powers said that he would appreciate meeting with the contractor on this possibility, and thanked the Commissioners for their consideration in this matter. There being no others who wished to be heard, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation for the paving of St. Christopher Lane at an interest rate of 120; the paving to be coordinated with the placement of the 12" water line; and directed staff to meet with the paving contractor and all the property owners of St. Christopher Lane to see if there is a possibility of having the pavement come up to the entrance ways of the driveways in order to have the entire street consistent, with the understanding that this work would not be part of the assessment. Commissioners Eggert and Wheeler felt the Board should establish a set policy in these cases. 110th Street East of U.S. #1 and 110th Place, East of U.S. #1 Mr. Brescia explained that the paving of these streets is mainly to consolidate the grader routes and save the County some money. Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. Abel Macon, stated that his stepson, who owns Lot #4 on 110th Place, is in complete accordance with the petition that was circulated in August, 1985,1 and wishes to see the paving done. Joe Schaffer of 110th Street referred to the following letter of objecti:oh signed by him and his wife and Mr. and Mrs. R.O. Menendez: 15 r Board of County Commissioners Indian River County 1840 25th Street, Vero Beach, Florida 32960 Mr. and Mrs. R.O. Menendez 6526 Paradise Lane Sebastian, Fl. 32958 6 June 1987 - Subject:, Paving improvement and Drainage Maintenance to Floravon Shores 110th Street (also known as Paradise Lane). Dear Board Members: Recently the Indian River Planning Office has recommended that 110th Street (Paradise Lane) of Floravon Shores be re -paved with an asphalt surface as a measure to eliminate the temporary yard flooding which occurs on the lower lots closer to the Indian River and to im- prove the road condition during heavy rain. This letter Is a request to the Board of County Commissioners to vote against the adoption of the authorizing resolution and assessment roll for the above stated project as It presently stands. Also a suggestion for alternative action Is provided. In our opinion, the reason why flooding of the lower lots in this street takes place is the lack of maintenance work on the retention swells sur- rounding the lots In question. This problem has been compounded by the frequency and the manner in which the Public Works Department grades this street. Deep blade grading (with blade settings 4 to 8 in- ches below the surface of the road) has contributed to an accumula- tion of marl and shale at the lower end of the street, which in turn proceeds to fill the access to the retention swells in question. Proper maintenance of the swells and the street surface would prevent the flooding that presently takes place. The flooding situation Is not com- mon to the higher lots In this street and consequently it does not war- rant the imposition of drainage maintenance or Improvements on the__ higher lots easements closer to U.S. 1. The grading method has also contributed to a degradation of the road surface, which is only a significant inconvenience immediately after heavy rains. However, the present street surface and the ad- jacent lot terrains are highly permeable. Therefore, most of the rain im- pinging on the road is absorbed rapidly through Its surface, reducing the residual road run-off flowing Into the swells. Since most of the lots on 110th street do not have functional culverts, any residual run-off into the higher lots swells is presently effectively retained on these lots and does not contribute to the flooding of the lower lots. Replacing the present permeable road surface with impermeable as- phalt and Installing culverts along all the lots on the street will increase the amount of run-off flowing Into the affected area. This in turn will re- quire larger retention swells in the lower areas. Potentially, water con- taining tar oil residues from the street surface may find its way into the Indian River from the lower lot retaining swells without proper natural filtration, compounding the run-off pollution which the County and the State are attempting to reduce via other programs. 16 BOOK FACE 504 rp,— JUN 91987 BOOK At the Informal hearing conducted on 2 June 1987, the County Civil En- gineer and the Planner refused to discuss any specifics of the drainage work for 110th Street since they claim no design work will be undertaken until the County (and consequently the residents of 110th street) are committed to proceed with the project. As taxpayers, we are disturbed by the fact that Indian River County has failed in the past to Provide drain maintenance in our. area, yet we are being asked to com- mit to additional cost assessments covering what is essentially drainage maintenance for which we already pay property taxes. Also we are being compelled to fund unnecessary drainage and road paving Improvements without even having the benefit of evaluating a preliminary design plan. After careful thought on these Issues, we believe that there Is no reason to justify undertaking the full scope of the paving and drainage project proposed by the County Planning Office. In addition to being un- necessary, the paving of this street will also Increase the amount of. non-residents traffic and potentially may contribute to an Increase in crime In this area Consequently we request that the County Commis- slon refrain from approving the 110th Street project as it presently Is proposed. Instead we suggest the following alternate actions be taken: a) Reduce the scope of the drainage project to Include only the neces- sary maintenance of swells and the correction of run-off blockage to this swells. This work should only affect the lots where temporary yard flooding occurs and should specifically exclude all higher lots not ex- periencing or contributing to the flooding problem. b) Consider avoiding the paving of 110th street with an Impermeable asphalt surface. This type of surface Is unnecessary for this short dead- end road. Rebuilding the existing marl surface is more desirable ap- proach, since water is allowed to drain through this surface and it produces no oil residues run-off which could find its way to the local potable water wells or the Indian River Lagoon. To reduce main- tenance cost, the County Planner should consider reducing significant- ly the frequency of the grading operations, since during the past year grading has produced net detrimental results. . We hope the commission realize that all parties affected by this project are not In accord with respect to the need for the proposed work. Con- sequently, at least a careful re -consideration of this project following a meaningful meeting with the County Engineer and Planner to discuss their specific design recommendation is necessary.

He believed that the drainage problem would go away if the County put the street back the war it was and stopped the grading, because they never had a drainage problem before the County started grading that street. County Engineer Brescia explained that drainage i a very critical part of the street paving process. Joe Rothgery, 6655 Paradise Lane (110th Street) stated he was very happy to hear that the County is planning to pave 110th Street.

Vitunac, County Attorney and Terrance G. Pinto, Director Division of Utility Services DATE: May 12, 1987 RE: MODIFICATION TO COUNTY WASTEWATER ORDINANCE RE: USER CHARGES/PUBLIC HEARING - JUNE 9, 1987 As part of the expansion of the County's wastewater utility system, Indian River County has applied for a grant from the federal government to provide sewers to the Rockridge area. One of the prerequisites for funding by the federal govern- ment is that our wastewater service charges be amended as recommended by our consulting engineers. The attached letter from the EPA indicates that once the County adopts the ordinance, which is also attached to this memo, our grant application should be complete. Therefore,'the County's Division of Utility Services and the County Attorney's Office recommend adoption of the attached ordinance. Y h� arIes—P. i unac County Attorney �et'�ance Pinto Director Div. of Utility Services Utilities Director Terry Pinto presented staff's recommendation and emphasized that this modification does not change the existing rates in any way; all it does is break out the operation and maintenance. Chairman Scurlock felt the ordinance would read more clearly if the rates were reorganized so that the two volume charges would be separated from the two base facility charges, and the Board agreed to the change. Attorney Vitunac stated that he would make sure that the wording of the ordinance complies with the federal grant requirements. 25 Director Pinto stated that they were taking this before the board that approves the grants on June 15th, and felt onfident that we would receive this grant. He believed there would be no negative financial impact on the rest of the system. Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously a opted Ordinance 87-42, modifying Appendix "A", Rate Schedule of Ordinance 84-18, modifying the wastewater service charges, with the amendment suggested by Chairman Scurlock.

DeBlois VMV Lot 3 Block A tner FROM: REFERENCES: Case No. CV -87-07-248 Code Enforcement Officer It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of June 9, 1987. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS: On March 24, 1987, the Commission adopted a Public Nuisance Ordinance (No. 87-33), which prohibits "the accumulation of weeds in excess of 18 inches in height... on any lot, parcel, or tract of land which lies contiguous to a commercial or residential structure and within a platted, recorded subdivision where the platted lots are at a minimum of 50% developed" (Section 13-18(a)(1)). On April 23, 1987, code enforcement staff cited MI. Penelope Hessen of 2105 Windward Way as having a weed violation on property she owns. The subject property is described as follows: Rockridge Subdivision Unit 1 PBI 4-23 Lot 3 Blok A Tax Parcel Control Number: 12-33-39-00001-0001 00003.0 The current zoning classification is RM -10, M lti-Family Residential District. The Land Use Designation is MD 2. Section 13-20 of the Ordinance provides : cited property owners an opportunity to request a public hearing to congest a code enforcement officer's determination that a nuisanceexists on their property. Ms. Hessen has elected to schedue a public hearing to contest the cited nuisance violation. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS: Staff inspected the subject property on April 16, 1987, as follow-up to a complaint received from a resident of Rockridge Subdivision. Observed on the rear portion of the property were weeds approximately five (5) feet in height. In that Ms. Hessen's property is contiguous to a residential structure and within a platted, recorded subdivision where platted lots are at a minimum of 50% developed, code enforcement staff cited Ms. Hessen, requesting that the weeds -be mowed, to resolve the nuisance ordinance violation. 30 BOOK 6 [Aut 51U JUN: 9 1987 BOOK 6 8 [Y�'UE 519 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends, in accordance with Section 13-20(c) of the Nuisance Ordinance, that the Board adopt a resolution declaring a weed nuisance on the subject property, giving the owner ten (10) days to correct the nuisance. In the event that the weed nuisance is not abated within ten (10) days, staff recommends that the Board authorize County staff to abate the nuisance and assess such cost against the property owner. Chairman Scurlock noted that there is no requirement of a public notice in an appeal of a Public Nuisance Ordinance violation. Penelope Hessen, 2105 Windward Way, emphasized that this particular lot was on the tax rolls under a tax certificate between 1978 and 1982. In 1982 she purchased it as a tax deed, and until 1984 no one ever bothered her about the condition of the lot. About that time she noticed that someone in the neighborhood had been parking a truck on the lot, and she put a stop to that because she did not want the lot to become a parking lot. She believed the truck belonged to the Mithiaco's, who made the complaint to the Code Enforcement Board. A while later, a huge load of sand was delivered and dumped on the lot, apparently to be used by the Mithiaco's in landscaping their lot. Mrs. Hessen wished to read a letter from someone in the neighborhood that was put in her mailbox, but Chairman Scurlock pointed out that the main issue today is not to settle an neighborhood dispute, but to determine whether Mrs. Hessen is in violation of the Public Nuisance Ordinance in that her lot has grasses and weeds growing to heights exceeding 18". Mrs. Hessen argued that the high grass is to the back of the lot, and did not feel she should be held responsible for removing the grass clippings and branches that have been dumped in the front of the lot. She felt that she should not have to police her property to keep people from dumping there. Chairman Scurlock explained that the new ordinance states that a lot, which"Js next to a developed lot in a platted 31 subdivision which is 50% developed, has to be mowed when grasses grow over 18" in height. Commissioner Bird agreed that from the pictures circulated _ by staff, it appears that the high grass is to the back of the lot. Staff Planner Roland DeBlois advised that the definition of weeds in the ordinance does not distinguish between the extent of the weeds on the property nor provide for the locationlof the grasses on the lot. Chairman Scurlock asked if Mrs. Hessen had ever paid anyone to mow her property, and she stated that she had not. Attorney Vitunac asked Mrs. Hessen if she indeed Owns Lot 3, Block A, in Unit 2 of Rockridge Subdivision, and if the photographs taken by staff accurately reflect the present condition of her property to the best of her knowledge, and Mrs. Hessen confirmed that she owns the subject lot and that the photographs accurately reflect the present condition of the lot. Chairman Scurlock believed this situation was unique in that there is an active property owners' association in Roci<ridge and only one complaint was received, but Bill Nelson of 239 14th Street advised that many people have sent in letters to the association complaining about the condition of this lot. Attorney Vitunac advised that, legally speaking, Mrs. Hessen has more or less admitted the case of the County and has not given any reason why she should not clean up her property pursuant to the requirements of the law. Mr. DeBlois advised that this is the not the first lot that has been cited under the new Public Nuisance Ordinance', and if the Board so determines, Mrs. Hessen will have 10 days from the date of this hearing to have the lot cut. If the lot lis not cut by that time, the County will cut it and assess her the cost.

Balczun County Administrator James W. Davis, P.E. Public Works Directo qP- Michael L. Orr A0 FROM: Traffic Engineer LE: SUBJECT: Traffic Signal I Maintenance Contract with City of Sebastian REFERENCES: The existing traffic signal maintenance contract ith the City of Sebastian was signed in August 1983. The Coun y now provides maintenance services at cost to the City and the ity assumes all liability. Renewal is necessary at this time to (1) update the County's compensation, and (2) to add a second signal to the mai tenance list. A new contract was submitted to the City for execution but was returned at the recommendation of the City Attorney to modify the liability clause to hold the County responsible for itslown actions. The Assistant County Attorney advises that (1) theliabilityclause in the existing contract with the City assuming all liability be maintained because the County would increase its risk of liability with no corresponding benefit and that (2) the City should provide insurance to cover the County. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS 1) Renew the existing contract with the City assuming all liability and update compensation (Schedule A). The City Attorney has indicated that he would not recommend this to City Council. 2) Renew the existing contract with the City assuming all liability and require that the City furnish liability insurance for the County. This is recommended by the County Attorney to provide .maximum protection for the County. 3) Amend the contract with a new liability clause, as 'requested by the City Attorney, to hold the County responsible for its own actions; require the City to furnish liability insurance for the County; and update compensation (Schedule A). This alternative is acceptable to the County Attorney upon approval of the insurance to be furnished. 4) Terminate the existing contract and do not provide maintenance service to the City. RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING Alternative #3 is recommended because a valuable l service will be provided to the City of Sebastian and the County liability will be protected. - No additional funding is necessary. cost reimbursements during FY85-86.

I'D' Chairman Scurlock asked if the County Attorney was satisfied s with the wording of the agreement, and Attorney Vitunac explained that the County now will be responsible for the work the County does, and any extra insurance costs will be the responsibility of the City of Sebastian. That is the only way it can be, and he recommended Alternative #3. County Engineer Ralph Brescia advised that at the present time this contract mainly covers the one signal on U.S. #1, but another signal at U.S. #1 and Schumann Drive will be installed in the near future. ON MOTION by Commissioner Bowman, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation of Alternative #3 as set out in the above memo. AGREEMENT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD REQUEST FOR COUNTY TO FILE A MAINTENANCE MAP FOR COMMUNITY ROAD - (134TH COURT) _ The Board reviewed the following memo dated 611/87: TO: The Honorable Members of the DATE: May 27, 1987 FILE: Board of County Cann►issioners - TMUGH: v` Charles Balczun, County Administrator SUBJECT: Request from Maureen Poole, Fellsmere, for County to File a Maintenance Map for Cmmmity Road (134th Court) between Ditch 8 and Ditch 12 (5220') _ FROM: C09 REFERENCES: James W. Davis, P.E., Maureen H. Poole to Board Public Works Director of County Camnissioners --}April 27, 1-92-7 DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Indian River County has maintained 134th Court north of Fellsmere for many years. The actual road does not lie within a dedicated right-of-way and Maureen Poole of Fellsmere is requesting that the County take legal action to record a Maintenance Map of the 5,220 LF road. 37 ` / I 'r ALTEi7NATIUS AMID ANALYSIS The following work is involved in preparing a maintenance map for this road: Horizontal control (Section, quarter -section corners, etc) will have to be established. The roadways will be stationed from an appropriate beginning. point, and locations showing the extent of construction and maintenance will be recorded. Vertical control is not necessary at this time, but will be in the event any construction is planned. A certified survey will have to be produced showing mathematical ties to horizontal control,,and the existing topographical features for the length of the project. Ten working days should be all for this, running concurrently with getting drafting done as fi ld work is produced. This of course, is without acquiring verb 1 data, but showing topography to a width deemed necessary for a righ"f--way._ Approximate in-house cost to do this work is $5,000. RE MMATION AND FUNDING Whereas staff would prefer to file maintenance maps for, the y miles of roads within non -dedicated areas, our resources do not pezmit taking on this type work. Staff recommends denying this request unless property owners along the road would agree to pay the cost. The staf could then contract out this work with local surveyors. If the work is contracted out, the cost would probably double. County Engineer Ralph Brescia, speaking for vacationing Public Works Director Jim Davis, explained that a signlificant amount of surveying work would be required to fill this request. Chairman Scurlock asked if anyone from this area was in attendance. There were none. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED b� Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation to deny this request nless property owners along the road agree to pay :the cost, and allow staff to contract for this work with local surveyors, with the understanding that if the work is contracted out, the cost probably would be of doing it in-house. 38 9 1987 BOOK uble that LPAGE 526 P; FF__ I ,JUN BOOK NORTH COUNTY WASTEWATER SYSTEM - WORK AUTHORIZATION #16 DATE: JUNE 1, 1987 TO: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FROM: TERRANCE G. PINTO DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES D I SUBJECT: NORTH COUNTY WASTEWATER SYSTEM - WORK AUTHORIZATION 16 BACKGROUND On May 12, 1987 the Board of County Commissioners allowed Masteller and Moler to complete the additional study on the North County Subregional Sewer Project. Masteller and Moler have completed this - additional study which indicated a customer base of 7,500 units. The wastewater treatment plant will be located in the Hobart area with an estimated construction cost of $5,848,975.00. Masteller and Moler is now ready to proceed with the Engineering Design and -Resident - Inspection portion associated with this Project. The cost associated with these tasks are as follows: 1) Engineering Design $340,200.00 2) Resident Inspection $115.200.00 TOTAL $455,400.00 RECOMMENDATION Utility Staff asks that the Board of County Commissioners authorize the Chairman to sign Work Authorization number 16, contingent upon approval and financing through special assessments, so that the project can continue moving toward completion. Utilities Director Terry Pinto advised that this will be the last item that the Utility Department will have to perform before going into the assessment roll. However, he did not feel that it was made clear that the assessment rolls have to be in place before they can go out to bid on this project. After this is completed, they will be taking it to the Finance Department for analysis, and as soon as they receive the cost information, they will advertise the public hearing on the assessment roll itself. Chairman Scurlock noted that the underwriter will be looking at the viable alternatives on financing the project. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bowman, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, that the Board approve staff's recommendation, and authorize the Chairman to sign Work Authorization #16 as amended, contingent upon the financing and the special assessment being in place. 39 Under discussion, Commissioner Bird expressed hislreliance on staff's expertise to make sure that the prices that * e being charged for this work are competitive, negotiated fees and _ Director Pinto confirmed that these are are well within the limits of any curve. He pointed out that when you loc ik at the project cost of $5.8 million and the design cost of $310,000, you can see that it is well within the 100. When engineering is done, the 10% figure generaily,does not include inspections, which are set aside somewhere else or hidden. _ Commissioner Bird questioned whether staff had ch cked into the legality of placing a wastewater plant at the Hoba t Park location, which is one of the sites under consideratio , because he felt that we need to make sure that land could be used for something other than recreation. Chairman Scurlock felt we had checked that out when we were looking into the matter of effluent disposal on the course at Sandridge Golf Club, but Commissioner Bird wanted to have it thoroughly checked out because this time we would be erecting a waste disposal plant. Director Pinto advised that we need more ground t an what is available at Hobart Park, and they are looking at adjoining pieces of land. Depending on how the entire layout is,arranged, the final decision will be made on exactly what is going to be located on the ground that belongs to the park. At that point, they will check again to see if there is any violation'. Presently they are looking at the Chatham, Graves and ther County -owned property on the sand ridge. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously.

Surlock, J ./ Chairman AT EST: , Freda W Le } �e APPROVED AS TO FORM AND LEGAL UFFICI-E CY: lamBruce Barkett Assistant County Attorney PROJECTED SALARY OF MEDICAL EXAMINER Administrator Balczun reported that the SelectionlComnittee has established a job description for the Medical Examiner's _ position with the annual salary in the range of $90,00-$120,000 and is requesting the Board's authorization to advertise for a successor to Dr. Walker. The position is presently atl$90,000, but it is the feeling of the Committee that $120,000 i very reasonable for the services of a board certified foren is pathologist. However, since there are only 538 in theentire country, it is doubtful that we will be able to hire oche. The Committee's guess is that it will take somewhere in th' $90,000 range to get a regular pathologist, of which there are only about 2000 in the country. Chairman Scurlock asked if there had been any mor discussion about our county not paying it fair share, nd Administrator Balczun stated he had not heard anything further, but will request that item to be placed on the agenda for the next meeting. Chairman Scurlock emphasized that Dr. Walker still has $90,000 left in this year's fiscal budget, and stressel that it has to be made very clear that he has the money in his budget to pay for any and all tests requested. Sheriff Tim Dobeck agreed that we need to advise the present Medical Examiner to continue to run all necessary tests, because just last week Dr. Walker again refused to run two tests on a drowning victim in Indian River County. Sheriff DobecR understood that June 30th would be Dr. Walker's last dy, but Administrator Balczun pointed out that June 30th is th,e official date only and that Dr. Walker could opt to serve untillhe is replaced. The State Attorney's office has made arrangements with other doctors so that Indian River County will be covered until another Medical Examiner is hired. 46 JUN 9 1987 BOG( JUR S 1997 BOOK 68 Pr 6E 53 Commissioner Eggert understood that there is enough money in this year's budgeted funds to pay for the tests that were mentioned, and Chairman Scurlock maintained that the problem is that the money has been allocated on a monthly basis and Dr. Walker uses that as an excuse. Sheriff Dobeck recommended that since there is such a fine line between some homicides, suicides, and accidents, the Board write a letter to Dr. Walker stating that he will perform all tests relating to medical examining. Administrator Balczun reported that the Selection Committee also has requested each county to provide a staff person to serve on a fiscal overview group to perpetually monitor the Medical Examiner's office, and asked for authorization to appoint a member from staff. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously authorized the County Administrator to advertise the Medical Examiner's salary in the range of $90,000-$120,000, appoint a member of the staff to serve on the fiscal overview group to monitor the Medical Examiners' position; and authorized the Chairman's signature on a letter to Dr. Walker telling him to perform all required tests relating to medical examining.

We understand this past year did not do as well as expected. ' We feel several factors caused this. For one, the Fair being in March, or possibly April next years, is too-lat n the year. It is at the tail end of the fair season on the , Treasure Coast. People from this county, as well as other counties who attend ours as we do theirs, are "Faired out", tired of fairs and spending their money. We feel we should have a January or February fair every year and it shduld be a "County Fair", run by the county for the Fairgrounds to maintain and build up a real County Fairground we can all be proud of. � The Firemen have done a wonderful job of starting and build- ing up a fair that we can all take part in, thay are to be commended. But now an we are ready to put up buildi gs, we must have State approval to match funds and ideas an conti- nuing to make this a true Courty Fairgrounds.

But unless this is a State sanc" tioned County Fair, for the county and fairgrounds, the State will not take part in improving and helping us to mat our fairgrounds a real benefit to all Of us, especially the youth of our county.

In the meantime, representatives of the agricultural community want to build an agricultural exhibit building on the Fairgrounds to be used during the County Fair, and they have written the above letter stating that they have the intention and the funds to go ahead with an exhibit building once it is determined that it will fit in with the master plan of the County Fairgrounds. Commissioner Bird felt this structure would be a tremendous asset to the county, and noting that Joe Tillman and Will Barker were in attendance, thanked them and their associates for their endeavors in this project. Commissioner Bird wished to have the Board consider their suggestions about having a County Fair run by the County at the County Fairgrounds and that the fair be held in January or February every year. Attorney Vitunac updated the Commissioners on the status of establishing a County Fair, and explained that State Fairgrounds Director Wally Rich has advised that Indian River County can abolish the corporation, operate the County Fair, and designate a department of the county to handle it. Apparently, the State feels the auditing procedures for the last two years are inadequate, and this way the County would be in control of the auditing procedures. Mr. Rich is planning to visit us in July to go over an agreement to that effect, and will take that agreement back to Doyle Connors. However, Mr. Rich feels it is all set. Mr. Barker emphasized that they cannot start on the agricultural exhibit building until it is determined that it fits into the master plan. Commissioner Bird believed that the indication of the Commission is that it is in favor of having a County Fair, and he felt we are heading in that direction and will continue to work together with all interested parties. 49 � � r \_v REPORT ON FELLSMERE LIBRARY BUDGET The Board reviewed the following memo dated 615187: TO: Mades P.-- Balczun DATE: June 4, 1987 FILE.

She emphasized that the Women's Club works very hard to raise the money for the present insurance premiums, and it has been her hope that if the additional hours contributed by the County to the Fellsmere project resulted in them having to pay a higher insurance premium, the County would pay the extra amount. At present, she did not know for sure if there would be any additional premium costs or what they would amount to, but would like the lease to read that we will pay any difference in the insurance. Commissioner Bowman suggested that we wait until we see if there is any increase in the premium, but Commissioner Eggert wished to take the Commission's feelings in this matter back to them at this Thursday's meeting. Chairman Scurlock stated that he did not have a problem with it, and pointed out that the County assumes a certain degree of liability when we decide to operate a library. Commissioner Eggert cautioned that the Fellsmere program may not be successful and could cease at any time. Administrator Balczun stated he did not disagree with the concept of the County paying for part of the insurance, but did not want to convey the message to them that they could choose the coverage and then apportion the costs. Chairman Scurlock suggested that we set an amount and indicate that we are willing to participate financially. It was agreed that Commissioner Eggert would take the message back to the Fellsmere Library Association that the Board would participate in the expanded insurance coverage necessary to operate the library. Commissioner Bird wanted to know, at some point, what amount that participation would be, and Commissioner Eggert advised that 53 - M ■ after Thursday's meeting, she would be bringing the lease and the insurance matter back to the Board for final approval. _ There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded and carried, the Board adjourned at 10:30 o'clock A.M.
