DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: On October 8, 1987, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a major site plan application submitted by Marvin Penalba. Approval was given to construct a 15,600 sq. ft. furniture, carpet and major appliance building with associated site improvements at 705-735 15th Place. Due to logistical constraints, Mr. Penalba has been unable to commence construction prior to the expiration of the approved site plan. However, if no construction had begun by October 8, 1988, the site plan approval would have lapsed unless otherwise extended by the Board of County Commissioners. This petition was received by the Community Development department prior to the expiration of the approved plan, as required by site plan ordinance. No regulations have changed since the time of site plan approval that would affect the approved plans. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 23.2(G)(2), Appendix A of the Zoning Code, Mr. Penalba is requesting a full 1 year extension of the approved site plan. It has been the policy of the Board to grant extensions to projects which conform to current codes. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Mr. Penalba's request for a one year extension of the approved site plan; the new expiration date to be October 8, 1989. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commis- sioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved a one year extension of site plan as requested by Marvin Penalba. • •* 8 OCT 1 8 1988 Ram 74 F?

Utilities Finance Other In the face of economic crisis and reduced public funding, Florida Community Health Centers, Inc. still endeavors to meet the basic health y= ,needs of the migrant and seasonal farmworkers, indigent, _and elderly that constitute most of the population in the medically underserved communities we serve. As we prepare our annual Public Health Service (PHS) Grant Application, we seek to demonstrate the support of Florida leaders who share our commitment. __I r This is why I am writing at this time to ask _for your expression of_ support,_ which can be done by writing a letter indicating your recognition of the health needs of the people in our service areas, together with your support of our 1989 Grant Application. PHS has requested us to include such letters of support with our Grant Application. Our primary health care centers, located in Clewiston, Indiantown, Okeechobee, and Ft. Pierce served approximately 44,000 low income/indigent residents and migrants in Glades, Hendry,enIndian River, Martin, Okeechobee, and St. Lucie Counties during 1987-88. Despite growing pressures of inflation and increasing numbers of needy persons,, our PHS Federal grant request is sure to be reduced again in 1989, as it was this year. Patients will be required to shoulder a greater portion of the cost burden through out-of-pocket fees. I have enclosed for your information a synopsis describing our organization. Your letter of support should be addressed to: Regional Health Administrator DHHS/PHS/Region IV 101 Marietta Tower, N.W.

CHAIRMAN October 5, 1988 Utilities Director Pinto made the staff presentation, reviewing the history of the problems with the water plant at Village Green: 16 OCT 18 1988 FtOOK74c DATE: TO: THRU: FROM: SUBJECT: OCTOBER 8, 1988 WILLIAM G. COLLINS, II ACTING COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR TERRANCE G. PINTO DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES LISA M. ABERNETHY `FRANCHISE MANAGER VILLAGE GREEN WATER & WASTEWATER FRANCHISE VIOLATIONS POSTPONED FROM THE BOARD MEETING OF MAY 31, 1988 BACKGROUND In May, 1988 the water plant at the Village Green Mobile Home Park failed to perform and deliver quality water to the residents. Upon staff's evaluation of the water plant the owner and the County entered into an Agreement specifically requiring the Owner to state within a 120 day period their intentions of rectifying the violations of the Village Green Water and Wastewater Franchise (Utility). The Agreement imposes upon the Utility, over and beyond the County Utility rates, a surcharge of 50% effective at the end of the 120 day period. Further, the Commission issued an administrative order -confirming the terms of the Agreement and requiring the owner to at the end of 120 days make either a permanent connection to County facilities, paying all associated fees, or to make arrangements for the construction of a new water treatment plant meeting all State and County specifications and standards. ANALYSIS Staff has contacted the Owner from time to time informing the Owner of the remaining time per the Agreement. On September 23, 1988, staff received formal notice from the Owner stating the decision to provide a fresh water supply to the park with their own reverse osmosis plant (RO). The Owner states in the notice an anticipated four week period to rebuild the existing plant and an additional anticipated eight weeks to provide a new RO plant. Staff has responded to the formal notice of September 23rd and requests the Owner to submit formal specifications for the County's review and approval. Staff anticipates the Owner to comply with the request within two to three weeks. Staff feels the current provision for the park to receive water via a temporary connection to County Utilities may remain in force until the County determines that the Owner has exhausted all avenues to provide an adequate facility for the park as outlined in the Agreement. RECOMMENDATION Staff requests the Board of County Commissioners toapprove the continuation of the 50% surcharge until such time as the Owner complies with State and County specifications and standards for a new facility or connection into County Utilities. Staff requests and recommends the Board to authorize the Chairman to sign the foregoing Resolution outlining the Owner's requirements for the construction of a new facility. 17 OCT 18 1988 Dor 74 F uE. 537 Director Pinto advised that staff is recommending that the Board adopt the proposed Resolution informing the owners that the building of a new facility and any changes, modifications or repairs, done to the existing facility, will require an extensive review by this county, as well as the D.E.R., and that they cannot proceed with any type of work until the County has approved what they are proposing to do. Chairman Scurlock asked if the owners have submitted any formal application to D.E.R;= and Director Pinto advised that he was not aware of any. Commissioner Eggert assumed this Resolution will allow for all the proper backup equipment, etc., and Director Pinto advised the Board that the purpose of the Resolution is to reaffirm our authority to make sure what they design is reviewed by us so we can make comment before permits are issued. They have been cited for problems with their wastewater also, and we are continuing to follow that. This past week they had a lift station pump burn out, which caused a major backup, and they are in the process of doing those repairs. Commissioner Bowman noted that there is no reference to a timeframe in the proposed Resolution, and she assumed that was spelled out in the agreement of May, 1988. Director Pinto explained that the time frame as to their making a decision as to whether they were going to build or not was in the original Order and agreement signed by the Board. As to where they stand now - they have submitted a time frame for restoration of their old plant and the addition and are saying they will have something up and running within 4 weeks. We haven't seen any plans yet, and we know they cannot make that deadline. Chairman Scurlock believed we are still continuing to pursue potential financing options for them to come on to our county system, but to date that has not been successful.

Director Pinto confirmed that we have not been successful so far, and the Chairman noted that the inducement for them to move ahead would be that they are being charged a 50% surcharge on top of the normal county wholesale rate structure in order to get them to move in a positive way. He asked if the minimum time required to establish a new facility or upgrade the existing facility would be 90-120 days in Director Pinto's opinion, and Mr. Pinto stated that would be the very minimum. Commissioner Eggert noted that as we stand now, we are open ended. They have presented a time table that is not going to happen, and we have no guaranty that will be there a year from now. Chairman Scurlock stated that our main concern ,is that they not disconnect from the county system and then not have a reliable, acceptable, long range solution. We are not in a dangerous situation at present, and hopefully, with enough time and effort, we can bring them back to the negotiating table and resolve this in a positive fashion. There is no question that these package systems are not a protection for the residents who live in the community; so, we are going to exhaust every effort to be sure we have pursued every possibility. Commissioner Bowman commented that her problem is that the owner states he anticipates a 4 week period to rebuild the existing plant and an additional 8 weeks to provide the R.O., which is 12 weeks, and that brings us to December 23rd. Both the Chairman and Director Pinto agreed that will not happen since we haven't seen even the first plan for the design of the system, and noted that in the meantime, they are receiving county water and paying a surcharge. Chairman Scurlock stressed that it must be understood that we are dealing at arm's length in this situation, and because of the crisis, we were able to negotiate the surcharge. That is about as much weight as we have at this point. He felt where we really come into play is with Mr. Pinto and staff making sure 19 OCT 18 1988 they properly review the entire plans that will be submitted to DER, including a backup system, which will put us in a position to make sure we have reliable service and, on the other hand, also show that it is not exactly inexpensive to go that route and maybe that will bring them to the table. Director Pinto had one other point. He informed the Board that ITEK, the firm Wilder Corp. has chosen, is a very reputable firm, and when they design a plant, they design it based on the theory that it will be well-maintained and operated and that someone probably will be there 100% of the time. In our review, however, we will be looking at this plant as one that will not have full time operators or full time maintenance people. Chairman Scurlock wished to know if anyone was present representing the owners of Village Green. No one answered, and he asked that the record show that there is no one present at this meeting to represent the owner. Director Pinto advised that we did have a visit from a firm that is looking into the possible purchase of Village Green, and we received a letter from the present owner authorizing them to discuss Village Green matters with us. Chairman Scurlock felt possibly we would have a vehicle in terms of transfer of the franchise to strengthen our position. He asked whether they ever formally transferred the original franchise, and Director Pinto answered "not correctly." The Chairman wished this to be on the record for the benefit of those fine citizens in the audience who have been left more or less in limbo in this situation. Director Pinto expressed his opinion that if the owners keep up the record they are building, we will be in a position at some point to nullify their franchise. Commissioner Bird asked that Mr. Pinto explain the 50% sur- charge. Director Pinto advised that it is very simple - when the owners of the park receive their monthly bill, there is a 50% • 20 OCT 181988 BOOK 74 FAf r 540 surcharge added to it. Right now the Village Green residents are receiving water from the park owners; it is the owners' responsi- bility to supply them the water and wastewater. Commissioner Bird noted that, in other words, the park owner pays the 50a surcharge; it is not passed through; and that money comes to the county Utilities Department. This was confirmed. The Chairman asked if anyone present wished to be heard. Robert Gornall, president of Village Green Home Owners Association, thanked the Board for their continued interest and concern about the residents' water and sewage problem. He noted that it is their understanding that the terms of the May, 1988, agreement between the County and Wilder Corporation required them to complete renovation on the existing plant or hook up permanently to the county water system. As of this date, .that has not occurred the county, therefore, had every right to iq4 shut their water off -}at the end of the 120 day period and did not do so; and the residents are most grateful for that. Mr. Gornall emphasized that they feel that Wilder Corp. has been uncaring and negligent. Their water has been shut off time and time again without any advance warning. In addition to the many shut -offs, their water was undrinkable for weeks prior to May 17th making it necessary for residents to purchase water. They now understand that Wilder Corp. has decided to renovate the existing facility, and that decision is of great concern to the residents because they have no confidence that the renovated plant will be any better run or maintained than it was in the past. Furthermore, they are concerned that they might proceed with renovation of the plant without receiving state or county approval of their plans and then disconnect from the county water. The residents are relying on the county to see the plans are properly done and that there are licensed operators and inspections, proper back up equipment, etc. Mr. Gornall noted that they are equally concerned about the sewage system, but they believe that the county officials will adequately address both • •. OCT 18 1988 21 BOOK 74 P"CE.541 problems. He then introduced Wayne Gerholdt, chairman of their water and sewer committee, to present additional facts that they would like to have entered into the record. Mr. Gerholdt came before the Board and thanked the Chairman for determining for the record that no representative of the Wilder Corp. was present and that there was a question about the franchise being properly transferred. Mr. Gerholdt believed the owner's non-appearance shows a lack of respect for both the residents and the County Commission. Mr. Gerholdt then expressed hisappreciation to the County Commission staff, the Utilities staff, and the Health Department staff, for the many hours they have devoted to the residents' problems with the Village Green water and wastewater systems. He stated that since the purchase of Village Green East by Wilder Corp. in July, 1986, they have experienced complete deterioration 94 of the potable-water;system. Both the water and wastewater systems have received letters of violations many times, and the residents have just experienced raw sewage flowing down their streets and into Phase 1 lakes. Lift Station #5 has been in a state of disrepair for several years and now it has become an emergency. It is a case of no preventive maintenance whatsoever. He stressed that when Wilder Corporation purchased this piece of prime real estate, they also purchased the problems left behind by Florida Atlantic, and it is their sole responsibility to address and correct these problems. Mr. Gerholdt then addressed the potable water system and advised that there is documented proof of the violations of certain Florida Statutes cited against the Wilder Corp. not only by the county but by Mr. Alexander of the DER based in Melbourne. He felt there are valid arguments that may show that the Statutes in regard to operator certifications and wastewater plant monitoring have been violated also, and he believed the problems with the systems may be summarized as neglect, no preventive maintenance and no general maintenance. Mr. Gerholdt then went • •+ OCT 18 988 22 POOK 74 PGF 542 into detail describing the results of the daily monitoring of the metered water flow that he had carried out during an 107 day period. He advised that with 25% of the residents absent, for 587 homes the average daily use was 86,039 gpd, which is an average per household of 146.6 gpd. If you project that ahead to the 782 homes that are at Village Green, it brings the capacity of water needed to 114,641 gpd, and in this figure no allowance was included for the three clubhouses or the possibility of underground leaks. Mr. Gerholdt referred to correspondence of September 23rd, 1988, from Mr. Jim Scott, Divisional Manager for Wilder Corp. to the County Utilities Department written as a formal notification 8 days beyond the end of the 120 day period. Enclosed with that letter was a letter to Mr. Scott describing the work to be done by ITEK, and Mr. Gerholdt quoted the following: "New R.O. Plant - 1N`e,propose to provide a new R.O. plant capable of producing 50,000 gpd of potable product water prior to any blending. New R.O. Expansion - The above referred plant will have suffici- ent pump motor, piping and instrumentation capacity to enable a future expansion of an additional 22,000 gpd for a total plant capacity of 72,000 gpd." Mr. Gerholdt emphasized that he has metered documentation showing the flow projected for 782 homes was 114,000 gpd; so, he did not understand how the corporation arrived at capacity figures of 50,000 gpd., especially when the flow in the middle of the summer with most of the people gone is 86,000 gpd. Mr. Gerholdt then quoted from a letter mailed to each residence from Richard Bass, Park Manager on May 2, 1988, which stated that "We can produce only 87,500 gpd of R.O. water. Our present usage is about 100,000 gpd. This mix of blended water could not be certified for drinking use by those who need a low sodium intake." Mr. Gerholdt noted that if the blended water for 87,500 gpd to make 100,000 gpd was unfit for consumption, just think what a product from a blend from 50,000 gpd or even 72,000 gpd to 114,000 gpd would be. He stressed that all the residents ask of 23 0C- 18 1988 BOOK 74 FA E 543 the Wilder Corp. is the best quality of water and adequate quantity for all their usage except lawn sprinkling. They are requesting that the permitting agencies make sure the plant is large enough to produce the quality and quantity of potable water needed for their consumption, but it appears from the letter just received that they want to renovate the old plant to bring it up to just barely meet the specifications required. Chairman Scurlock believed under the new Safe Water Drinking Act requirements, they most probably will not be able to blend. Our current blend rate at our own South County R.O. plant is about 40%, and be just wanted something on record noting that when we are talking about their proposal of 70,000 gpd available to blend, there -;is no assurance they will be able to blend. Director Pinto confirmed that there certainly isn't any assurance they wilI be able to blend. He explained that the ability to blend is determined by the product water versus the raw water, and it depends on the condition of your raw water. It can't be compared to another treatment facility - you have to look at the specifics. Our blend is down less than 40% now. As the membranes deteriorate, they produce a lesser quality of product water, and then the blend has to decline; so, when you design the system, you must make sure it is designed Targe enough to handle that decline. Chairman Scurlock noted that if you took their existing proposal of 50,000 gpd. and had a 50 % blend rate, you would have 100 gpd of product water, and you still don't have a proposal that will meet even the summer needs of the residents. Director Pinto was not sure that in our review we will even look at the ability to blend. Commissioner Eggert wished it clarified that when Director Pinto said the blend would deteriorate, he meant the product water would have to increase and there would be less untreated water, i.e., 60/40 would go to 70/30, and that was confirmed. OCT 181988 •. 24 Boor 74 wif-.544 Mr. Gerholdt advised that he met with Mr. Jack Anderson of ITEK and took him on a tour of the entire water system, pointing out violrations starting at the wellhead supply up to the distri- bution point. W. Anderson was surprised at the number of violations he didn't have listed when the bid was submitted to him, and Mr. Gerholdt felt both the county and the residents must be on guard. William Koolage, long time county resident and taxpayer, expressed his belief that we have come to the point in time where we should take whatever steps are necessary to get rid of all package plants.. As a citizen watching what has gone on, he stated that there is no way he would ever support continuing any package plant, and he felt the Board should exercise. whatever legal ability it may have at this time to make them get onto the county system. i1 It was determined that no one else wished to be heard, and the Chairman declared the public hearing closed. Commissioner Bowman commented that some mention was made of buying out the franchise, and she wished to know if we have to buy out a franchise. Chairman Scurlock advised that it is a very complicated situation, and while negotiations are going on, he would prefer not to go into all the details. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commis- sioner Bird, the Board unanimously adopted Resolution 88-108 requiring construction of a new water plant at Village Green Mobile Home Park to meet county specifi- cations. • •.

OCT 18 1988 27 BOOK 74 F; [ 547 MANATEE SIGNS IN JOHN'S ISLAND SOUND Acting Administrator Collins reviewed the following: TO: Board of County Commissioners DATE: October 12, 1988 FILE: SUBJECT: MANATEE SIGNS IN THE John's ISLAND SOUND FROM: William G. Collins II REFERENCES: Acting County Administrator Last Spring a resident of Indian River Shores, Bayard Pope, brought the Board's attention to the fact that manatees congregate in John's Island Sound in the summer months. Mr. Pope asked the County's assistance in obtaining permits for the placement of manatee signs within John's Island Sound. The Board of County Commissioners authorized staff to make the necessary contacts with regulatory agencies in order to process permit applications. The original intent had been for the sign placement and maintenance to be taken care of by Last Tree Village Corporation and/or the John's Island Property Owners Association. Our contacts with the various regulatory agencies indicated that the placement and upkeep of signs could not be delegated to a private corporation, that is, the state requires that some government employee be the responsible contact person for purposes of sign placement and upkeep. (See Paragraph 4 of the attached memo from Sharon Phillips Brennan dated August 11, 1988). Currently the County Parks Department maintains Joe Earman Park in the Indian River. I have spoken with Parks Superintendent Rex Hailey and he indicates it would be no difficulty to simply run into John's Island Sound to check on the status of manatee signs occasionally. I have also spoken to Mike Rose, the general manager of the John's Island Property Owners Association. Mr. Rose indicates the continued willingness of the Property Owners Association to underwrite any costs associated with the placement and upkeep of such signs. Any work necessary to be done could be done by the Property Owners Association to the exact specifications set out by the County Parks Superintendent, Mr. Hailey, and would be done under his supervision. RECOMMENDATION I request that the Board authorize designation of the Indian River County Parks Superintendent, Rex Hailey, as the contact person for any state agency involved in the issues of upkeep and placement of manatee cautionary signs in John's Island Sound. OCT 16 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commis- sioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously authorized designation of Parks Superintendent Rex Hailey as the contact person for any state agency involved in the issues of upkeep and placement of manatee cautionary signs in John's Island Sound. 988 28 BOOK 7 F, G;E. 548 AGREEMENT FOR CULVERT REPAIR & REPLACEMENT OF STRUCTURE (EARNHEART/JORDAN) SEBASTIAN Acting Administrator Collins reviewed the following: TO: Board of County Commissioners DATE:October 12, 1988 FILE SUBJECT:AGREEMENT FOR CULVERT REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF STRUCTURE FROM -William G. Collins II REFERENCES: 'Acting County Administrator A drainage/stormwater pipe passes through property owned by K. L. and B. E. Earnheart and J. R. and D. M. Jordan east of Indian River Drive in Sebastian. This pipe drains a substantial area west of Indian River Drive into the Indian River. This pipe has failed and is causing a washout near the headwall adjacent to Indian River Drive, and a soil collapse under a carport/utility shed on, the property. A title search has determined no easement for the drainage pipe exists. The Earnhearts/Jordans have been very cooperative with the County and are willing to grant the necessary authority to repair the pipe if the County will remove and reconstruct the--_carport/utility shed (or pay the fair market value of the improvements) . Relocating the drainage pipe is not an option. The expense of boring a new line under Indian River Drive, relocating the line, and getting new D.E.R. outfall permits would be prohibitive. The timeframe also would not be acceptable due to the emergency nature of the collapsed pipe. RECOMMENDATION Authorize the Chairman to execute the attached Agreement for culvert/repair structure replacement. The Acting Administrator emphasized that it would be very time consuming to obtain DER permits for relocation and advised that the Public Works Director intends to put in a concrete drainage pipe with an anticipated life of 50-100 years. They estimated the cost of removal and reconstruction would be about $4,000 and fair market value is about the same. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, to authorize the Chairman to execute the Agreement with the Earnhearts and Jordans for culvert repair and replacement of structure. OCT 18 1988 29 BOOK 74 - F E 54 Y Commissioner Bowman asked if we shouldn't get the easement before we do this, and Mr. Collins advised that we have the easement drafted, and they have indicated they are willing to sign it. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. It was voted on and carried unanimously. SAID AGREEMENT WILL BE MADE -A PART OF THE RECORD WHEN FULLY EXECUTED AND RECEIVED. APPROVAL OF 88/89 EMS GRANT APPLICATION The Board reviewed memo from the Director of Emergency Management: TO: William Collins DATE: October 10, 1988 FILE: Acting County Administrator SUBJECT: Approval of 1988-89 EMS County Award Grant Application FROM: Doug Wright, Director REFERENCES: Chapter 401, Part II, Emergency Management Services Florida Statutes It is requested that the information contained herein be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners during the next regular meeting. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services, Office of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is authorized by Chapter 401, Part II, Florida Statutes, to distribute county grant funds. The funds are then made available to eligible county governments to improve and expand their pre -hospital emergency medical services. The grant program is an innovative process which enables EMS agencies and organizations to improve and expand EMS systems through their Board of County Commissioners. On-going costs for EMS remain the responsibility of the counties and EMS agencies and organizations. The EMS emergency responders in Indian River County have met and determined system needs for fiscal year 1988-89. A grant appli- e OCT18'9S8 • 0 30 BOOK 74 r550 cation has been prepared describing the needs and proposing grant objectives and time frames in which the objectives will be obtained. The application is now before the Board of County Commissioners for discussion and approval. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The County grant funds are derived from surcharges on various traffic violations. The Counties are credited with an annual allo- cation that remains theirs and must be claimed by applying to HRS, which distributes the funds annually. Funds have been allocated this year by the emergency responders to fund a personal computer system for Indian River Memorial Hos- pital ALS system for $7,600, relocate a VHF antenna from a water tower to the WGYL tower for the South County Fire District for $4,300, purchase a used emergency transport vehicle from the Town of Indian River Shores for the Fellsmere Volunteer Ambulance Squad for $13,359.88, and upgrade the EMS radios in the emergency transport vehicles of the Indian River County Volunteer Ambulance Squad for the sum of $9,000. Funds in the amount of $34,259.88 have been allocated to Indian River County to accomplish the expansion and improvement of the County EMS system. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the 1988-89 EMS County Award Grant Application and requests the Chairman be authorized to execute____ the necessary documents to obtain the funding allocation of $34,259.88 from the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services to im- prove and expand the pre -hospital EMS system in Indian River County. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Com- missioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously adopted Resolution 88-109 authorizing submission of an EMS grant application to the DHRS and further authorized the Chairman to execute the necessary documents to obtain the funding allocation. • 31 OCT 18 1988 8001( F .�.E 551 RESOLUTION NO. 88- 109 A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE APPLI- CATION FOR FUNDING COUNTY EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS) AWARDS TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES.

It has to do with the surcharge on the telephone to support the 911 system. Director Wright reminded the Board that the maximum surtax of 504, which is divided to cover recurring and non-recurring expenses for operation of our 911 system, was a 36/14 split during this year. As of this October, however, the 144 will expire, and we now have recalculated figures based on our population in terms of number of lines and taking into consid- eration the figures on our carry over, and it looks like it will be a 40/10 split for next year. The 104 is for non-recurring costs; our operating costs are still intact; and he just wanted the Board to be aware there may be about a two week delay in :starting up the 104 cost. We will need a Resolution to impose that, and he wi_II be bringing that back to the Board on November 1st. Commissioner Eggert believed that 911 is part of what is funding Central Dispatch. We shifted some funds over at budgettime, and she felt that we need to investigate all the money that goes into the funding and get a true cost of Central Dispatch, how it impacts everyone and who needs to provide funds for it.

Listed below is a comparison of the preliminary estimate and the final costs to the homeowners. It is noted that all construction cost are under the original estimates: South Half North Half Prelim. Est. $112,370.75 $ 72,342.45 Final Cost $112,342.01 $ 72,324.73 The final assessment roll has been prepared and is ready to be delivered to the Tax Collector. Assessments are to be paid within 90 days or in two equal installments, the first to be made twelve months from the due date and the second to be made twenty-four months from the due date at an interest rate of 12% established by the Board of County Commissioners. Thedue date is 90 days after the final determination of the special assessment. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Since the final assessment to the benefited owners will be less than computed on the preliminary assessment rolls, the only alternative presented is to approve the final assessment rolls. RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING It is recommended that the final assessment rolls for the paving of the North and South sit halts of Ercildoune be approved by the Board of County Commissioners and that they be transferred to the Tax Collector's office for collection. - Funding to be from the Petition Paving Account #173-214-541.

GIFFORD COMMUNITY CENTER DEED & PROPOSED LEASE TO PROGRESSIVE CIVIC LEAGUE OF GIFFORD Attorney Vitunac reviewed the following memo: OCT 18 1988 • 36 BOOK 74 [VA 556 TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: DATE: October 6, 1988 Charles P. Vitunac, County Attorney RE: GIFFORD COMMUNITY CENTER DEED AND AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE LEASE TO THE PROGRESSIVE CIVIC LEAGUE OF GIFFORD, INC. By motion made on August 16, 1988, the Board of County Commissioners agreed to accept title to the Gifford Community Center property when The School Board was finished with the construction of the center. Attached i s a copy of an executed School Board deed, dated September 30, 1988, which does transfer title of the property to Indian River County. Unless the Board of County Commissioners has some objection, it would be proper to record this deed and assume ownership responsibilities of the property. Also attached to this memo is a proposed lease of the property from the County to the Progressive Civic League of Gifford, Inc. which would operate and maintain the property pursuant to the terms of the lease. Attorney Vitunac advised that the law requires that the county accept the deed before the property is officially owned by the county. He further informed the Board that Commissioner Eggert has been working closely with his office and wants to have a lease executed simultaneously with the acceptance of the deed so the League can take over the premises without any gap in ownership. He felt Attorney Brennan has written a good lease but thought the Board might possibly want to change the term to more than one year. Commissioner Eggert noted that she had not known that the Civic League had not seen the proposed lease; however, they want to go ahead with the dedication on the 29th, and she would like to work out a few wording changes in the lease and in the meantime accept the deed.

He advised that Victor Hart and Ralph Lundy are both here representing the Progressive Civic League, and they now have copies of the proposed lease. Discussion ensued regarding approving the lease with some modifications, and Commissioner Eggert stated that she would definitely like to change it to a 5 or 10 year lease. Ralph Lundy of the Gifford Progressive Civic League informed the Board that they were going to ask for a 10 year lease and would compromise for 7; they have planned a number of programs and are presently working on a grant. The Board members agreed to go with a 10 year lease. Chairman Scurlock suggested a possible Motion that would approve the lease and allow the future details to be worked out. Commissioner Eggert advised that another point that concerns her is that the termination is only on one side. Attorney Vitunac noted that all the Civic League would have to do is pay $1.00 a year for the remaining term and they could get out of the lease; so, it really only needs one side, but possibly we might want to give more notice. Commissioner Bird suggested that we change the wording to provide for termination on 60 days' notice by either party, and he asked if Mr. Lundy had any other changes to suggest. Mr. Lundy stated that they were mainly concerned about the term, and that has been worked out. Commissioner Bird asked if they are comfortable with the insurance requirement, and Mr. Lundy advised that they had applied for $500,000 liability and they would have no problem with the insurance.

CANCEL PORTION OF CONTRACT WITH HBW ASSOC. FOR LIBRARY POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Commissioner Eggert reviewed the following memo: OCT 1 8 1988 s 44 (BOOK 74 OH 5b4 MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Commissioner Carolyn K. Eggert, Chairman Public Library Advisory Board DATE: October 14, 1988 SUBJECT: Contract with HBW Associates, Inc. When we hired HBW Associates, Inc. to do the Library Building Program, we included in the contract at the insistence of Charles Balczun funds for HBW to do Library Management and Operations Policies., and Procedures for the County. The first part arrived in the form of xeroxed copies of the Dallas Library ,Policies and Procedures. In talking with the librarians, I find we already have County and State procedures under which to work. I have asked Bill Collins to talk with Richard Waters of HBW and determine if we should continue this. Fourteen days' notice is needed to cancel the contract. Because of no meeting on October 25th and the notice requirement, I would like the BCC's approval to cancel the contract for the policies and procedures part if PLAB, Bill Collins and I determine we need to and pay Mr. Waters for work done to that date. Kr. Waters would be expected to participate in the follow up of the>,building.programs and the checking of the architectural plans. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commis- sioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously gave their per- mission to withdraw from the portion of the contract with HBW Associates, Inc., dealing with Library policies and procedures, if the Advisory Committee determines they wish to do so.
