DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: On December 8, 1988, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a major site plan application submitted by William Priestly. Approval was give to construct parking lot improvements at 1060 6th Avenue. Due to financial constraints, the applicant has been unable to commence construction prior to the expiration of the approved site plan. However, if no construction has begun by December 8, 1989, the site plan approval will lapse unless otherwise extended by the Board of County Commissioners. Pursuant to County regulations, since the written request was received by staff on November 15, 1989, before the site plan expiration date, the Board of County Commissioners can extend the site plan expiration date as request- ed. No regulations have changed since the time of site plan approval that would apply to the site plan application. 2 1 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 23.2(G)(2), Appendix A of the Zoning Code, Mr Priestly 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. Priestly's request for a one year extension of the approved site plan; the new expiration date to be December 8, 1990. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously granted a one-year extension of the approved site plan; the new expiration date to be December 8, 1990, as recommended by staff.

Authorization to Amend IRC Ordinances in Reference to SBCCI Technical Codes The Board reviewed the following memo dated 11/21/89: TO: James E. Chandler County Administrator DEPARTMENT HEAD CONCURRENCE: Robert M. Keatin Director, Community De elopment DATE: November 21, 1999 SUBJECT: Authorization to amend Indian River County Ordinances in reference to SBCCI Technical Codes FROM: Ester L. Rymer, Director Building Division It is requested that the information herein presented be given formal -consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at the regularly scheduled meeting of December 12, 1989. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS The Indian River County Code of Laws and Ordinances provides for the use of specific editions, with applicable revisions, of the Southern Building Code Congress International (SBCCI) technical codes. These codes are designed for adoption by state and local governments. The purpose of the Standard Code is to protect the public's life, health, and welfare- in the built environment. The use of performance-based requirements encourages the use of innovative building designs, materials, and construction systems while at the same time recognizing the merits of the more traditional materials and systems. This concept promotes maximum flexibility in building design and construction as well as assuring a high degree of life safety. The Code incorporates, by reference, nationally recognized consensus standards for use in judging the performance of materials and sys- tems. This provides for equal treatment of both innovative and tra- ditional materials and systems, provides for efficient introduction of new materials into the construction process, and assures a high level of consumer protection. The Standard Codes are updated annually with revisions, and a new edition is published every three years. ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS Currently the Indian River County Ordinance requires the use of the 1988 Edition of the technical codes. At the meeting of the Indian River County Building Code Board of adjustments and Appeals held Mon- day, November 6, 1989, The Board voted unanimously to recommend to the Board of County Commissioners the adoption of the 1989 revisions to the technical codes as follows: 10 STANDARD BUILDING CODE (SBC) 1988 Edition, Including Appendix "A", with 1989 Revisions. Ref: Article II, Section 4-31 STANDARD PLUMBING CODE (SPC) 1988 Edition with 1989 Revisions. Ref: Article VI, Section 4-91 STANDARD MECHANICAL CODE (SMC) 1988 Edition .with 1989 Revisions. Ref: Article VII, Section 4-101 STANDARD GAS CODE (SGC) 1988 Edition with 1989 Revisions. Ref: Article V, Section 4-81 STANDARD HOUSING CODE (SHC) 1988 Edition with 1989 Revisions. Ref: Article VIII, Section 4-106 NATION ELECTRICAL CODE (NEC) 1990 Edition. CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION' Staff concurs with the Indian River County Building Code Board of Ad- justments and Appeals, and recommends the Board of County Commission- ers authorize advertising -the attached ordinance for public hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously authorized staff to advertise for a public hearing for the adoption of an ordinance amendment in reference to SBCCI Technical Codes. H. Appointment to Finance Advisory Committee Commissioner Scurlock explained that many of the people on the FAC go up to the mountains in the summertime, and in an effort to use all of their expertise and have a quorum during the summer months, he felt it is important that we appoint some additional people. He noted that Mr. Heald's resume shows an extensive legal background. DEC 121989 ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously appointed Robert L. Heald to the Finance Advisory Committee. 11 BOOK 7 8 F;1GE 5!-35 DEC 12 i989 BOOK 78 F,16E 586 I.

Staff Planner, Long -Range Planning DATE: November 21, 1989 SUBJECT: BATCHELOR REQUEST TO REZONE 4± ACRES FROM A-1 TO RFD It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of December 12, 1989. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: This is a request by Thomas and Joan Batchelor to rezone property from A-1, Agricultural District (1 unit/5 acres) to RFD, Rural Fringe Development District (1 unit/2} acres). The property is located on the east side of 66th Avenue, approximately 810 feet north of 8th Street. The applicant intends to split the subject property in order to create another building lot. On October 26, 1989, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 to 0 to recommend to the Board of County Commissioners the 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.purrent 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 parcel contains a 2 story, single-family residence and is zoned A-1, Agricultural District. The surrounding property, on all sides, is also zoned A-1. Agriculture is the predominate land use in this area. The area west of 66th Avenue is devoted almost entirely to citrus. Groves are also present on the northeast boundary of the property. Property on the east and south is undeveloped but cleared of most native vegetation. Property immediately north (on the east side of 66th Avenue) contains single-family residences on lots ranging in size from 1/3 to 2i acres. Future Land Use Pattern The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property and all surrounding property RR -1, Rural Residential 1 (up to 1 unit/2i acres) . 14 P Transportation System The subject property has direct access on 66th Avenue. This dirt road is a designated minor arterial road on the county Thoroughfare Plan. Environment The subject property is not designated as environmentally sensitive on the Comprehensive Plan but is within the 100 year floodplain as depicted on Federal Emergency Management Agency flood maps. Utilities Public water and sewer are currently not available or programmed for the subject parcel. Analysis In reviewing this request, staff has examined the existing land use pattern and the future land use pattern set forth in the Comprehensive Plan. The RFD, Rural Fringe Development District is intended to provide opportunities for very low-density residential development outside the fringe of suburban development and is the highest density permitted within the Rural Residential Land Use category. Agriculture has been the major use of land in this area; however, residential uses have been established along the roadways. The most significant concentration of residential uses in the area is Pine Tree Park subdivision approximately one-half mile away. Despite the lack of public services and paved roads, the area's proximity to more developed areas of the county enhances its attractiveness for low density residential development. The predominance of agricultural uses will provide some limitations to development in the area as residential development and subdivisions adjacent to active agricultural operations are required to provide buffers. The long term development of this area will depend on improvements to 66th Avenue and the provision of public water and sewer. It is unlikely that these improvements will occur in the near future. Conclusion The subject property is located in an area designated for rural development and dominated by agricultural uses. Residential uses will be restricted to very low densities by constraints provided by agriculture, lack of roads, services and drainage. The proposed change in zoning would be consistent with county policies and would not create a noticeable change in existing land uses. Therefore, it is the opinion of staff that the proposed zoning would be reasonable and not negatively impact adjacent properties.

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS GARY C. WHEELER, CHAIRMAN 2150 Nov. 24. 1989 The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/5/89: TO: James E. Chandler, County Administrator FROM: James W. Davis, P.E., Public Works Director SUBJECT: Ordinance Establishing the Roseland Road Street Lighting District DATE: December 5, 1989 DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS On July 25, 1989, the Board authorized staff to proceed with design, cost estimates, and an implementing ordinance to establish the Roseland Road Street Light District. The design of 19 street lights is complete along Roseland Road from Indian River Drive to 126th Street. The estimated cost for the first year is $3,360 for the entire district, plus administrative costs. The benefit district includes approximately 335 acres and 638 parcel/acres to be assessed. The estimated cost per parcel acre is $5.27/year. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING Subject to comments received by the public at the Public Hearing, staff recommends approval of the Roseland Road Street Lighting District. Public Works Director James Davis advised that the assessment is $5.27 per parcel/acre and pointed out the area to be served. Commissioner Scurlock understood that the initial assessment would decline because generally the first year is the biggest year due to the capital improvements that are required, and then after that, it is maintenance and utilities. Director Davis explained that the high costs the first year are for administrative costs and setting up the district. The capital improvement expenditures are for equipment, but that cost is pro -rated over 10 years. After receiving the petition from the property owners in the Roseland community, we determined the benefited area and worked with the power company to develop the cost estimate for the 19 lights along Roseland Road. Director Davis noted that while this district is being established for municipal street lighting, it could be expanded to serve other future improvements in the Roseland community. 19 BOOK DEC 121989 78 fAWE r � DEO g 2 V989 BOOK 10 F'AGE 5 4 The Chairman opened the Public Hearing, and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter.

CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTO DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERV CES SUBJECT: CONSTRUCTION MANAGER/OWNERS REPRESENTATIVE CONSULTANT BACKGROUND: On November 9, 1989 approximately fifteen County initiated Request For Proposals were mailed for the subject project. There were six (6) responses received on November 27, 1989. The selection committee was appointed by the County Administrator which was comprised of: Gary C. Wheeler - County Commissioner James E. Chandler - County Administrator James Davis - Public Works Director H.T. "Sonny" Dean - General Services Director This committee met on November 29, 1989 to "short list" the consultants and select a date for presentations. A pre -designed form using points for qualifications in various areas of importance was the methodology used in this process. Total points from each committee member's form determined ranking of the firms that submitted proposals. The short list was made up of the firms receiving the highest number of points. These companies were notified and presentations were scheduled and heard on December 6, 1989. ANALYSIS: The short listed consultants were judged on their past experience in similar projects, personnel qualifications, what they perceived to be the important aspects of the project, and how well they were prepared to perform the various tasks. The committee ranked the consultants -based on the majority votes received as follows: 1. Sverdrup, Corporation 2. Rooney Enterprises, Inc. 3. Proctor Construction, Company RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff respectfully request Board approval to negotiate with Sverdrup, Corporation, for a contract to perform the subject consulting work. The proposed contract will be brought back to the Board of County Commissioners for their approval. 28 Administrator Chandler explained that interviews were held last week with the short-listed firms, and staff would like authorization from the Board to negotiate with the first ranked firm, Sverdrup Corporation, and bring back a recommendation at next week's meeting. We are also interviewing individuals, and will be bringing a recommendation to the Board next week as to whether we should go with a firm or an individual. Commissioner Scurlock wished to state for the record that he - may have some problems with Sverdrup Corporation. He gave good credit to the County's selective ranking process, but Sverdrup worked on our South County reverse osmosis plant, and in his opinion, we had some fairly significant problems associated with that project. He would like to have more comfort as to who is on what base, and who is committed to the project. Administrator Chandler advised that they would be prepared to answer those questions when they bring back a recommendation. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation as set out in the above memo. 29 nEC 12 1989 ROOK 10 PAGE. 600 DEC112 l9 BOOK 11c, BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT'S REQUEST FOR COMMISSION'S CONSIDERATION OF SPLITTING OF LOTS IN AMBERSAND BEACH SUBDIVISION The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/1/89: TO: James E. Chandler County Administrator DIVISION HEAD CONCURRENCE: Robert M.. 3 Keati A'"` Community Development'Director FROM: Stan Boling,A CP Chief, Current Development DATE: December 1, 1989 SUBJECT: BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT'S REQUEST FOR BOARD CONSIDERATION OF AMBERSAND BEACH SUBDIVISION: SPLITTING OF LOTS 6O' It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of December 12, 1989. BACKGROUND AND CONDITIONS: On November 13, 1989, the Board of Adjustment considered a vari- ance request in the Ambersand Beach subdivision. Because similar conditions exist on other lots in the subdivision, the Board of Adjustment referred the issue to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration of a legislative resolution. - The Subdivision The Ambersand Beach subdivision plats (Units 1 and 2) were record- ed in 1924, many years before the County adopted a zoning code (1957). Thus, all lots, as platted, are considered grandfa- thered -in lots of record which are buildable, one principal dwelling on one platted lot. The plat, itself, established a total of 84 ocean to river lots, each of which were traversed by a road right-of-way known as "Ocean Boulevard" (see attachment #1). The plat did not establish separate lots on either side of Ocean Boulevard. In later years "Ocean Boulevard" was abandoned and ultimately replaced by S.R. A.1.A.. Based upon an opinion by the County Attorney's Office, construction of S.R. A.1.A. did not split lots into separate buildable east and west lots; S.R. A.1.A. merely replaced Ocean Boulevard, and individual lots remained unified across S.R. A.1.A. Thus, individual east and west lots were/are only created when separated by recorded deed. When such east/west lots are created, they must meet existing zoning standards to be considered buildable as separate lots. It should be noted that for a time, planning staff was of the opinion that S.R. A.1.A. did in fact split each platted lot into two individual parcels. Recently, staff brought to the attention of the County Attorney's office the existence of Ocean Boulevard on the plat. Based in part on the fact that S.R. A.1.A. "re- placed" Ocean Boulevard, the Attorney's office then rendered the opinion stated above. During the time staff was operating under the assumption that separate lots were created by. S.R. A.1.A.'s severing of the ocean to river parcels, a building permit was issued in 1987 for a "half ,lot" west of S.R. A.1.A. Under the County Attorney's office opinion now rendered, a building permit should not have been issued under such circumstances since the new lot did not meet the applicable minimum lot width standards. 30 Presently, the Ambersand Beach subdivision is split into three different zoning districts. East of S.R. A.1.A., lot portions are zoned RS -6 (Single Family Residential up to 6 units per acre) and are comprehensive plan designated as LD -2 (Low Density Residential up to 6 units per acre). 1 West of S.R. A.1.A. lot portions have two different zoning districts and land use designations. Western portions of lots 1 - 5 have an LD -1 designation and RS -3 zoning; all other western lot portions have an RR -2 land use designation and RS -1 zoning. - The Applicant's Request The crux of the issue at hand is a request by applicant Juanita Gunther, represented by'Attorney Michael O'Haire. The applicant owns all of Lot 2, Unit 1 from ocean to river; the lot is zoned RS -6 east of S.R. A.1.A. and RS -3 west of S.R. A.1.A. In 1981, two separate deeds in the name of the applicant were recorded, one for the eastern portion of the lot and one for the western portion of the lot. Consequently, in 1981, two lots were created from Lot 2; one oceanside and one riverside lot. (see attachment #2) The entire platted lot measures approximately 55' X 1,005'; the subject "half lot" portion lying west of A.1.A. measures approxi- mately 53' X 660'. The subject lot portion fronts upon part of a } acre lake which immediately fronts on S.R. A.1.A. The subject lot portion appears to contain "buildable" upland area as well as wetland areas. Properties just north of the subject lot portion have been separated from the oceanside portions of their respec- tive lots and have been built upon. Nonetheless, •the applicant's newly created lots did not meet the minimum R -1A zoning district regulations in effect at the time of the split, nor do they now meet the current applicable RS -3 front- age and lot width requirements. The applicant has requested a 26.77' variance from the 80' minimum lot width required in the RS -3 zoning district. Such variances from the zoning code are heard by the Board of Zoning Adjustment. 'At its November 13, 1989 meeting, the Board of Adjustment heard the variance request and voted to defer action, allowing the Board of County Commissioners an opportunity to consider all lots situated similarly to the applicant's, to make any appropriate policy decisions, and to take any appropriate action for the entire area. (see attachment #3 and #4). In essence, the Board of Adjustment has concluded at this time that any merit the applicant's request may have should be considered in an area -wide context since the circumstances of the subject lot are not unique to the lot. If warranted, special regulation of -the area would be more appropriately addressed by Board of County Commissioners' action rather than by the Board of Adjustment hearing individual variance cases. The Board of Adjustment has reserved the option to "re -hear" and continue the Gunther variance case depending on the Board of County Commissioner's decision and possible action. - Board of County Commissioners Consideration The Board of County Commissioners now needs to consider whether or not special circumstances exist for the applicant's property and the rest of the southern portion of Ambersand Beach subdivision, Unit 1 which warrant any special treatment or regulation changes different from existing regulations as applied. If the Board determines that the existing regulations are appropriate and are appropriately applied, then it should affirm staff's position. If the Board of County Commissioners determines that existing regu- lations need to be changed, then it should give direction to staff for initiation of regulation changes. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS: - The Issues The applicant's major argument is threefold: 1. S.R. A.1.A. does, in fact, split the lots, effectively rendering separate lots on either side of A.1.A. 2. Two other property owners (immediately north of the applicant's lot) have separate built -upon "half lots" west of S.R. A.1.A.; the applicant is requesting to have the same rights and opportunities. DEC 12 16. 989 31 MGIC 78 FAU.605 .,q, � NGGY 78 F'.k �F. 6O DEC 1i-; 3. The western portion of the applicant's parcel is large, approximately 53 X 660' (±0.8 acres), and warrants individual buildability due to its size. The only dimensional criterion it does not meet is the minimum 80' width required in the RS -3 zoning district. Staff's position is as follows: 1. As previously'stated, S.R. A.1.A. does not create two separate buildable lots out of each platted lot. S.R. A.1.A. traverses a single lot; one portion can contain the principal residence, the other portion can contain accessory uses (eg.: guest cottage, docks). 2. Adjacent to the applicant's property, two "half lots" have been developed as separate parcels. However, these are the only two parcels out of 84 lots where one half of a single platted lot has been separated -out as an individual buildable parcel. Thus, no compelling precedent has yet been set for the entire subdivision. The impact of changing existing regulations or granting variances must be considered in light of the impact of creating and developing more lots. The applicant's lot is large in area and apparently has enough uplands area to accommodate a separate and complete residence. However, the critical question is: should regulations be changed to allow more development on lots having a substandard width? Furthermore, if it is determined that significant lot depth can make up for substandard width, how much of the lot area should be required to be -uplands? What is the effect on wetlands? What will be the effect of increasing the number of curb -cuts directly onto S.R. A.1.A., especially curb -cuts that are ±50' apart? 13 . In relation to item #3, it is staff's opinion that : a. ±53' lots, outside of an approved PRD design, are too narrow for either the RS -6, RS -3, or RS -1 zoning dis- trict due to side yard setback constraints. Although residences are constructed on ±53' lots in the subdivi- sion, increasing the number of narrow lots would only increase the number of lots "too tight" to be developed in the manner of most other properties in the RS -6, RS-3,.and RS -1 districts. b. Trading -off lot width for lot depth (outside of a PRD design) inevitably requires a determination of a minimum lot depth. Lot depth in this area directly bears upon wetlands since the depth of lots include wetland areas and even privately owned submerged bottomlands. Allow- ing the creation of individual lots west of S.R. A.1.A. means that substantial residential development will have to be located adjacent to wetlands or even in some cases perhaps in wetland areas with mitigation. c. Increasing the number of lots will increase the number of driveways onto S.R. A.1.A. The subdivision ordinance prohibits the creation of lots which have direct access onto an arterial roadway such as S.R. A.1.A. Thus, allowing the proposed lot splits would go against a subdivision standard that should be applied to the request. Furthermore, due to the particular narrowness of the proposed lots, driveways would be closer together than normal, creating an undesirable traffic effect (more potential conflicting maneuvers in a short segment along a high speed roadway). The Board of County Commissioners, the applicant, and the Board of Adjustment each have alternatives that can affect the way Ambersand Beach subdivision lots are developed. - Board of County Commissioner Alternatives The Board of County Commissioners has two basic alternatives after considering the circumstances of the Ambersand Beach subdivision: 32 1. affirm staff's position and its application of the existing regulations; or 2. direct staff to initiate changes in the: existing regu- lations. If the Board chooses to make changes to existing regulations, it could "narrow -down" the geographical area affected by the change in a few different, logical ways. For example, the Board could restrict any changes to apply only to lots 1 5 which have RS -3 zoning west of S.R. A.1.A.. (all other lots have RS -1 zoning and an RR -2 land use designation west of S.R. A.1.A.) Regulation changes the Board may consider are: 1. amend existing zoning district widths to recognize a special width for some or all Ambersand beach _lots; 2. create a special zoning district for some or all Ambersand Beach lots which, among other possible stan- dards, establishes a special lot width. - Applicant's Alternatives The applicant's. alternatives involve requests before the Board of County Commissioners and the Board of Adjustment, as well as the ability to recombine the two lot portions into the original lot 2. The applicant's three basic alternatives are: 1. pursue a change in existing regulations by the Board of County Commissioners to allow the proposed lot split; 2. continue consideration of the variance request before the Board of Adjustment; 3. use or sell the entire platted lot (recombined portions) as one buildable parcel having one principal residence and any other allowed accessory uses or structures. - Board of Adjustment The Board of Adjustment has the alternative of continuing consid- eration of the applicant's variance request. The request involves only the applicant's lot. However, approval or denial of the request will set a precedent for lots similarly situated. SUMMARY The southern portion of the Ambersand beach subdivision contains ocean to river lots that are traversed by S.R. A.1.A., have substantial depth, and are narrow (below all minimum lot width standards). Certain lots have areas that greatly exceed required minimum sizes and, from the standpoint of total area alone could accommodate a lot split into separate individual lots. Despite total area, however, proposed separate "half lots" would still be below standard for width and would have direct access to S.R. A.1.A. Changing existing regulations to allow the proposed lot splits would allow the creation of lots not in keeping with subdivision standards in regards to lot width and traffic design. In staff's opinion, the Board should not change regulations to allow the creation of narrow lots having direct access onto a major, high speed roadway. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners affirm staff's position that the existing regulations should stand as applied, only allowing crgation of lots that meet applicable lot dimension standards. 33 DEC 1 2 1989 BOCK 78 F'AGE 697 DEC 12 8 0 lk IL.

In fact, he remembered when we established a very different, difficult precedent early on when we abandoned our old AIA right-of-way for Baytree and a number of those developments, and got nothing for it. That cut bisected all those projects along there, and a former County Commission went ahead and abandoned our rights and allowed them to develop their communities, but we got a big goose egg for all of that. He wondered, however, if we were to modify the ordinance, would it apply to only the long lots and not the shorter lots that have the same narrow width. Stan Boling, Chief of Current Development, felt certain that could be done. We could narrow down the scope. Commissioner Scurlock also asked if that area of the beach is in an erosion area or an accretion area, and Chairman Wheeler felt that all depends on the sand transfer project at the Sebastian Inlet, but all of that north beach area has a tendency to erode rather than accrete. Chairman Wheeler asked if anyone wished tobe heard in this matter. Attorney Michael O'Haire, representing the owner who owns property on both sides of AIA, emphasized that we are only talking about 5 lots. Referring to an aerial view of the area, he pointed out that everything north of Lot 5 in the Ambersand Subdivision is zoned RS -1, which requires a density of one unit to the acre. His client's property is approximately 350 feet deep on the east side of AIA, but it is more than 600 feet deep on the west side of AIA, and is one of the deepest lots in the entire subdivision. Commissioner Eggert asked how much of that is not lagoon, and Attorney O'Haire believed about one fifth of it is lagoon. Commissioners Scurlock and Eggert felt it is more like a quarter to a third. DEC 12 1989 L_ 35 BOOK 78 PAGE. 600 DEC 21589 BOOK i 61C Attorney O'Haire pointed out that Lots 2 and 3 have houses on the ocean side owned by Mr. & owned by Mr. & and on the river side. Lot 3, east of AIA, is Mrs. Preston; Lot, 3, west of AIA , and Lot 4 are Mrs. Thompson. So, they have been divided and there are houses on each according to the Property Appraiser's records. Lot #1, west of AIA, is owned by Mr. & Mrs. Olson, who have built a house there. Lot #1, east of AIA, is owned by Mrs. DeCosgrow, who also has built a home. Attorney O'Haire emphasized again that we are only talking about these 5 lots that are zoned RS -3 and can accommodate a house on either side of the road. This entire thing was prompted when his client made an inquiry as to whether or not they could build on either side of the road after receiving an offer to undersized lot." Attorney O'Haire purchase, and staff said "no, you have an next addressed the question of whether Ocean Boulevard was located differently than AIA. As you go north of his client's property, there is a zoning change, and it becomes so narrow it is very unlikely it could be used on either side in any case. The County Attorney's office has issued an elaborate opinion saying these lots were not divided or split when AIA was built in the 1950s, but were divided or split in the 1980s when all these people acquired title to them and were given deeds for parcels east and west of AIA. Attorney O'Haire maintained that what really split those lots was the construction of AIA, and he felt to say to those people who own property on either side of the road that they can build on only one side of road really defies all reason. In fact, Ralph Lindsey, chairman of the Board of Adjustments, commented that this really doesn't make a lot of sense. With regard to traffic, Attorney O'Haire didn't feel the additional really are and Lots 2 curb cuts would really impact the road because we not talking about curb cuts north of these deeper lots, and 3 already have curb cuts. He felt this is a unique situation. If there is a wetlands concern, it should be addressed 36 at the building permit stage, and if the County Commission has a concern about wetlands, it should be addressed on a county -wide basis, not in terms of Ambersand Subdivision. He felt there is an additional alternative to the two alternatives presented by staff, and that would be for this Board to make a factual finding that it was the construction of AIA that divided these lots into two separate parcels of real estate. With that finding, they could go back to the Board of Adjustment and say that his client had no involvement in the construction of AIA. Commissioner Scurlock asked if they could have built on both r AttorneyHaire s client sides of the road back in 1980 when O' Haire his property, and Mr. Boling advised that it depends on how efficient the checking system was at the time on whether or that arcel. He not there already was a house built on part of p believed that at one time staff was operating under the assumption that AIA did split the lots into two parcels. Robert Keating, Director of Community Development, believed that the Planning Department back then hadn't asked the County Attorney's office for a legal opinion. Had they acted upon what is the correct criteria now, they probably could not have allowed lot splits back in 1980 because the lots would not have met the minimum frontage requirements. The Planning Department saw the separate, distinct parcels back then, but did not challenge thee splits. Commissioner Scurlock asked if the owner had a reasonable right to believe that he had two buildable Tots when he bought the property1980, in since he had two titles and he had a record showing construction of other homes on both sides of the road. Mr. Boling didn't believe there were houses built on both sides of the road back in 1980. Commissioner Bird understood that with the exception of Lots 1 and 5, which are zoned RS -3, the remaining lots in Ambersand Subdivision are zoned RS -1, which would preclude two houses being DEC 1 1989 37 roc. 8 GE 611 DEC 1 G BOOK 18 F;E 6. 2 built on any of those remaining lots, and Mr. Boling explained that it would unless someone came in and obtained a variance, using the same argument that they have a,lot of depth and a lot of uplands area even though it is zoned RS -1. Commissioner Bird felt we have a unique situation here and some precedence established because we have allowed people to build on both sides of the road, but it was his opinion that Ambersand Subdivision was created as, and should remain, a single- family subdivision. He felt that perhaps we should allow it on this one additional lot and then allow no more. Chairman Wheeler asked how we would deny the owner of Lot 5 if he came in with the same request, and Director Keating explained that is the reason the Board of Adjustment is asking the Board to consider making a policy decision on this matter. Attorney Vitunac explained that this plat was filed in 1954 showing ocean to river lots 50 -ft. in width with a road down the middle called Ocean Boulevard. The road was eventually built as AIA in a slightly different location; the lots were still ocean to river; people have bought them knowing the road was either there or going to be there, and that they had one lot for one house. He didn't know what machination Attorney O'Haire's clients did to get two deeds. They may have requested it or it may have been inter- family, he didn't know. Attorney O'Haire hasn't said that they didn't have a hand in getting a deed to each side of the lot. Attorney Vitunac believed they did that so that they could sell off one, take the profit and build on the other and end up with a free house. That would be fine, except that it is a self-created hardship. They are trying to use the relocation of Ocean Boulevard to AIA as a means to double the amount of houses, but the lots are substandard. Attorney Vitunac stated that there is no wrong that the County has done except for one thing, and that is that sometime in the past they let two houses go in that should not have gone in. The County consistently takes a position that 38 b errors in the Planning & Zoning Department, the Building Dept. or the County Attorney's office do not set a precedent for the future that we can never enforce our Codes again. Further, if the Board gives in on this, and says that because of the mistake we are going to grant some relief, it would be setting a terrible precedent. It would be authorizing the doubling of a 50 -ft. lot, which would apply in other portions of the county, and this issue would come back to haunt us later on. Commissioner Scurlock had some sympathy for Attorney O'Haire's clients if they bought this property believing they could build on both sides, but after listening to Attorney Vitunac's opinion, he felt we would be setting a precedent here for the whole county. He questioned why the Board of Adjustment asked this to be heard by the Board, and Mr. Boling explained that the Commission is not being asked to grant a variance today. The Board of Adjustments more or less tabled this item until the Commission made a decision on whether to change the regulations in these situations. Director Keating advised that the Board of Adjustment has the ability to make quasi-judicial determinations, and they determined that this is better handled through a legislative action, which would be a change in the ordinance. Attorney O'Haire maintained that it was the construction of AIA that divided those lots, physically and legally, but Commissioner Scurlock disagreed because if you go back to the 1954 plat, it shows a road bisecting the property in conveyance of one lot 50 -feet in width and some undetermined length. Commissioner Bird admitted to vacillating back and forth on this matter this morning, but he was going to go back to his original feeling which is that Ambersand Subdivision was originally created, and should remain, a single-family subdivision, and that if you have a lot that has adequate frontage on both sides of AIA, you take your choice where you want to build your house, either on the river side or the ocean side. t��oK 39 78 ra GE61C DEC 12 `p 39 DEC 121989 BOOK / r E 614 MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, that the Board approve staff's recommendation. Under discussion, Chairman Wheeler wondered about the property owners' actions back in 1960 when the State came in and wanted to build AIA. Did any of them attempt to prevent the road coming in? Where he was coming from is that they made a profit off the property they sold to the State to build the road, and now they are wanting to make another profit by being able to build on both sides of the road. Attorney O'Haire explained that almost universally the people gave the right-of-way to AIA because they were happy to see AIA come along since they didn't have any access to their property and didn't care if their Tots were split. Commissioner Scurlock asked what happens if one of the houses that have been built on both sides of the road burns down, and. Attorney Vitunac advised that in his opinion, they would not be allowed to rebuild because it would be a non -conforming use. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously. APPROVAL OF CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF PHASE III OF COUNTY JAIL The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/7/89: TO: Board of County Commissioners DATE: December 7, 1989 THRU: James Chandler County Ad inistrator ii FROM: Doug Wrig t, Director Emergency Management Services SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Between Owner and Contractor for Construction of Phase III - Indian River County Jail Negotiations have been completed with Robert F. Wilson Construction Company on the contract for construction of Phase III of the Indian River County Jail and the attached four originals are submitted for review and consideration by the Board. 40 The contract provides 425 calendar days for construction and includes certain language that Assistant County Attorney Sharon Brennan Phillips desired to protect the interests of the County as well as to preclude a repeat of events that occurred with Phase II. It is anticipated that the facility will be completed in February, 1991, and a Notice to Proceed will be issued on December 22, 1989, if approval of the contract is achieved. The bid for construction of Phase III was awarded to Robert F. Wilson Construction Company on November 17, 1989, in the amount of $5,103,000. Staff recommends approval of the contract and requests that the Board authorize the Chairman to execute the necessary documents so construction can be initiated. ATTACHMENTS Four (4) original copies of Contract for construction of Phase III Commissioner Scurlock questioned the adequacy of the wording on the bottom of page two of the contract where it reads: "Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) for each and every calendar day during which the work is not complete beyond the limit set forth above will ]be assessed." He wondered if it should say $500.00 a day and that each day is a new occurence. Assistant County Attorney Sharon Brennan felt that the wording of "each and every day" is sufficient, and Attorney Vitunac advised that Attorney Brennan is our expert in construction contracts and has been to several seminars and got this language from them. Commissioner Scurlock asked if the 12% interest rate mentioned in Item 7.5 on Page 5 is correct, and Attorney Vitunac explained that the new law says that if the County doesn't pay their bills within so many days of this date, they have to pay 12% interest. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved the contract with Robert F. Wilson, Inc. for the construction of Phase III of the County Jail.

CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES SUBJECT: SALE OF SURPLUS TELEPHONE EQUIPMENT BACKGROUND: In an effort to expand the capacity in our telephone switching equipment certain items were purchased. Upon arrival AT&T was called to- make the required installation. After several unsuccessful attempts by the technician, it was determined by their engineer that our particular model of switch would not accommodate an expansion. Dodgertown has contacted this writer in an effort to purchase the above electronic parts for their telephone system at a price that we paid, including shipping charges. The total price being $2,098.70. ANALYSIS: These parts are new and are only compatible with a DIMINSION telephone system such as ours. The DIMINSION system is no longer being manufactured and cannot be purchased except on the "used equipment" market. For us to return the items to the vendor would require additional cost to the County. RECOMMENDATIONS: Due to the uniqueness with these electronic parts, staff recommends that authorization be granted to sell the items to Dodgertown for $2,098.70 and a budget amendment be approved to credit the fund from which the purchase monies were expended. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation to sell the electronic parts to Dodgertown for $2,098.70 and approved Budget Amendment #025 to credit the fund from which the purchase monies were expended. 42 '0: Members of the Board of County Commissioners ROM: Joseph A.

Attorney Vitunac advised that the Supplemental Conditions and other attachments will be part of the official contract, but just were not included in today's backup material. They are part and parcel of this contract. Mr. Williams explained that the Supplemental Conditions and all the contract documents were approved prior to bidding, and this contract refers to each section of those contract documents, just as attachments A and B, the specifications for each element of work. Commissioner Eggert wanted to see the amounts for the liquidated damages included in the contract on Page 2 where there is a space for it. Commissioner Bird asked if we are doing the base bid or the base bid plus alternates, and Commissioner Eggert advised that we are doing the base bid plus alternates. Three alternates are to do with the outside balcony, and another is for the improvement of carpeting in one of the rooms. Mr. Williams notedthat the adjusted base bid of $2,816,400 includes the alternates. Commissioner Eggert advised that the ground breaking is this Thursday, and they have indicated in letter form that they have no objections to executing the agreement pending a clerical error or correction.

Gentile, CET Civil Engineer SUBJECT: Selection of Consultant and Professional Engineering Services Agreement for Replacement Bridge over the South Relief Canal at 20th Avenue DATE: November 30, 1989 DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Staff has advertised for Statements of Qualifications and Letters of Interest from qualified consultants, reviewed those qualifications, short listed four firms and conducted interviews of these firms. The resultant ranking of the firms is: 1. Marshall, McCully & Associates 2. Mosby & Associates 3. Kimball/Lloyd & Associates 4. Delon Hampton & Associates The services consist of engineering analysis and design of replacement bridge over the South Relief Canal on 20th Avenue. ALTERNATIVE The only alternative is to authorize staff to negotiate contract terms with the highest ranked firm. FUNDING Funding to be from Bridge Replacement Account No. 111-214-541-066.31. DEC 12 1989 ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously authorized staff to negotiate contract terms with Marshall, McCully & Associates, the highest ranked firm, as recommended by staff. 45 BOOK 78 FACE: 610 DEC BOOK. F- JE. 6've Commissioner Scurlock asked if Marshall, McCully & Associates had ever built a bridge for us, and Public Works Director Jim Davis advised that they are doing this in a joint venture with a large firm that specializes in bridges. Commissioner Scurlock wondered why Lloyd & Associates wasn't ranked higher after they did such a good job on the bridge over by the country club. Director Davis explained that they were ranked #3 out of 23 firms, but the thinking was that we need to go with the eshto-beam girders more so than the hollow -core, pre -stress slabs. The DOT has developed problems with the hollow -core, pre -stress slabs, which has been the typical type of bridge that Lloyd & Associates has desicrned for us. Lloyd & Associates has indicated they can do the eshto-beam design, but he believed the committee felt that some of these other firms had a better handle on that type of construction. Commissioner Scurlock felt that makes a big difference, because generally he was not too ecstatic about joint ventures since they usually end up with two overheads, a flow-through and a percentage on top of the other firm's work. Director Davis emphasized that if we find that in the negotiations on the contract, we will go to the #2 ranked firm, Mosby & Associates, who has designed about 7 bridges in this general area, but not in this county. Administrator Chandler reported that after the Board gave approval last Tuesday to go ahead on the repair/replacement of the bridges that were identified by the DOT to have severe corrosion, staff has determined that two of the Oslo Road bridges, the ones east of 58th and 43rd Avenues, definitely will be replaced, while a third one east of 74th Avenue is a likely candidate as well. They feel the one on Winter Beach Road can be repaired. Consideration was given to having the bridge replacements done on an emergency basis by the same construction firm that is replacing 46 the bridge on 26th Street near 16th Avenue in the city. We had hoped that we could save some time by using that contractor for the replacement of those two bridges, but we found it would take 45-60 days for the design phase for the bridges, and we would be talking about perhaps 4 months to get those bridges completed and Oslo Road opened. As a result, staff's recommendation is to continue as we originally recommended to the Commission to go through the normal bidding process and do that work in the summer.

Attorney Vitunac distributed copies of the 3 bond resolutions that are required to be passed previous to the closing on December 20th on refinancing of the $9.2 million Gifford loan and the $450,000 supplemental bond. OMB Director Joe Baird explained that when we originally made the commitment with Bent Pine, we borrowed $450,000 at an estimated 7-3/8% rate. Interest rates have gone down since then, and we asked them to reduce the rate, which they did, and it will be 7% now. On December 20th we also will be closing on the $9.2 million Gifford bond issue and bond anticipation notes outstanding at 6-3/8% which had a 3 -year term. We will be refinancing those with FmHA at 5% over 40 years. We are retiring it a year ahead of schedule in order to be eligible for the substantial discount being offered by the FmHA, but the loan has to be closed on by December 31, 1989 in order to be eligible. 48 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously, adopted Resolution 89-153, authorizing and providing for the incurrence of indebtedness for the purpose of providing a portion of the cost of acquiring, constructing, enlarging, improving, and/or extending its combined water and sewer system facility to serve an area lawfully within its jurisdiction to serve.

CHANDLER ;COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: TERRANCE G. PINTO DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES SUBJECT: / EMERGENCY ACTION PROJECT SUMMER PLACE PHASE ONE WATER PROJECT EAST SIDE OF A -1-A IRC PROJECT NO. UW -:9 -09 -DS PREPARED AND STAFFED BY: WILLIAM F. McCAI CAPITAL PROJECTS E DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY RVICES BACKGROUND On October 3, 1989, the Indian River Board of County Commissioners approved Summer Place Phase One, east side of A -1-A, as an emergency. action project. This action was based on numerous well failures and on the recommendation of the State Environmental Health Department. To this end, we have had plans and specifications prepared for the project. These plans have been used to get price quotes for the installation of the water system. ANALYSIS We received four price quotes for this job. They are as follows: 1. AOB Underground, Inc. $73,105.00 2. Belvedere Construction Company $77,740.00 3. Collee Underground Company $88,847.00 4. Ted Myers Contracting Company, Inc. $96,689.71 It was also requested that a best time of completion be submitted with the price quotes. Both of the low bidders would complete the job within 60 days. The Department of Environmental Regulation (DER) permit was applied for on November 7th, and should be received by the first week in December. DEC 12 1989 55 BOOK 7 DEC z 1989 BOOK 78 ;;4,E6 o As soon as the permit is received and the contract is awarded, construction can begin. The funding for this project will ultimately come from an assessment, however, it will be initially funded from the impact fee fund. RECOMMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the award of this contract to AOB Underground, Inc., and the subsequent signing of the contract. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved the award of this contract to AOB Underground, Inc., and the subsequent signing of the contract, as recommended by staff. AGREEMENT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD WORK AUTHORIZATION #3 WITH LLOYD AND ASSOCIATES FOR WATERLINE ON 43RD AVENUE SOUTH OF STATE ROAD 60 The Board reviewed the following memo dated 12/1/89: DATE: DECEMBER 1, 1989 TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: TERRANCE G. PINTO DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES SUBJECT: PROPOSED WATERLINE ON 43RD SOUTH OF STATE ROAD 60 (19TH PLACE TO 12TH STREET) IRC PROJECT NO. UW -89 -16 -DS PREPARED AND STAFFED BY: WILLIAM F. McCAIN CAPITAL PROJECTS ENGINEER DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES BACKGROUND Sometime ago the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners ratified a utility service area agreement with the City of Vero Beach. In accordance with the new boundary on 43rd Avenue, we must now install a waterline on 43rd Avenue to serve customers with our water system that are west of this boundary and currently on the City system. 56 ANALYSIS We have negotiated a Work Authorization with Lloyd and Associates which is attached. The specific scope of this work is outlined in attachment A of their Work Authorization No. 3. The estimated construction cost associated with this work is $201,000.00. The engineering fees are to be set at $22,900.00. Funding for this project will come from the impact fee fund. RECOMMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached Work Authorization No. 3 with Lloyd and Associates. Commissioner Eggert noted that our engineering fees are getting above 10%, and Commissioner Scurlock advised that the engineering fees in the contracts that are on the Agenda today under Utilities range from 10.5% to 9.3%, and include resident inspection fees. He emphasized that he is monitoring these inspection fees and gave an example of what the fees would be on a $200,000 project using the FmHA standard fee curve for engineering services. The standard fee would be 7.7% plus 3.6% for resident inspection fee, which comes out to 11.3%, and we are at 10.5%. Commissioner Eggert felt it would be helpful if the Work Authorization stated that the engineering fees included resident inspection. Utilities Director Terry Pinto explained that the Lloyd and Associates contract does not really separate the resident inspection, but it is set out separately in the Masteller & Moler contract which is also on today's Agenda. He felt extremely satisfied with the numbers that we have negotiated, and pointed out that it is lower than the normal professional fee curve for engineering, and that you will find that the FmHA curve is about 1-11% lower than the.othe'r professional fee curves. 5 7 ROOK 78 FAGE 631 L DEC 1 2 1989 DEC 12 '989 V., o-' 6i) BOOK ! o FAGE� ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved Work Authorization No. 3 with Lloyd and Associates, as recommended by staff.

DOSCHER AND PRIVATE PROJECTS ENGINEER ,s CQ STAFFED DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES BY: SUBJECT: PETITION ASSESSMENT PROJECT FOR A POTABLE WATER MAIN IN CITRUS GARDENS SUBDIVISION INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA BACKGROUND We have received a petition for County water for the Citrus Gardens Subdivision (southwest corner of 8th Street and 43rd Avenue). ANALYSIS The petition contains more than 55% of the signatures of the existing property owners in the development. This constitutes 66 % of the actual owners of existing homes. The roads covered by this project are 42nd Court, 42nd Avenue, 41st Avenue, 40th Avenue, and 39th Avenue between 8th Street and 6th Street. Also included is 7th Street between 43rd Avenue and 39th Avenue (see attached sketch). The estimated project cost is $242,825.00. The associated engineering cost is $22,075.00. 58 RECOMMENDATION The Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve this project in its entirety and execute the attached Work Authorization W-6 from the short-listed engineering firm. The entire project is to proceed as an assessment district. Temporary funding for this project will come from the impact fee fUnd,.with final funding to come from the assessment. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved staff's recommendation as set out in the above memo.

US -87 -27 -CCS PREPARED AND STAFFED BY: WILLIAM F. McCAIN CAPITAL PROJECTS EIINEER DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES BACKGROUND Due to the inability to secure necessary easements along portions of the North County Force Main System, several changes in the force main route have been necessitated. To accommodate these changes, we must now have the engineer modify the system design and plans. 59 DEC 1 2 1989 BOOK.18 PAGE.

These changes are outlined as Task I through III on the attached Work Authorization (WW -#3) from Mastelier and Moler Associates, Inc. The total engineering cost for these changes is $4,800.00, which we feel is reasonable. The funding for this project will come from Account No. 472-000-169-006.00. RECOMMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached Work Authorization (WW -3) with Mastelier and Moler Associates, Inc.

WORK AUTHORIZATION WW -3 IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD SCHEDULING OF WORKSHOP ON SLUDGE/SEPTAGE Administrator Chandler wanted to schedule a workshop on this subject sometime next week if possible. He felt it probably would take about two hours or Tess. The Board agreed to meet at 9:00 a.m. on December 21, 1989. REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS PLANNING AND RESEARCH CENTER The Board reviewed the following memo dated 11/17/89: TO: Board of County CommissioneiDATE: November 17, 1989 FILE: James Chandler, Co. Administrator Bob Keating, Community Development Director Jim Davis, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Regional Transportation Systems Planning and Research Center Carolyn K. Eggert & FROM: County Commissioner REFERENCES: 60 I am going to put this matter on the Board of County Commissioner's agenda for December 12, 1989 for comments to be taken to Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council for consideration on December 15, 1989. The memorandum of November 17, 1989 from Treasure Coast Regional Planning outlines the Regional Transportation Systems Planning and Research Center proposal. I am told the money involved is $400,000 over 18 months. The 10% local participation will cover Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River Counties. Note that it says the local participation is acceptable in form of in-kind services or "soft match." I would appreciate comments from the Planning Department and Public Works before the December 12 meeting. I am concerned that this will develop into more than a think tank - perhaps into a bureaucracy that will be making decisions regarding our local transportation concerns. I would oppose that. (Note Resolution 89-01 at bottom of page 9.) Commissioner Eggert understood that this group has met since the time she wrote the above memo, but apparently she and Commissioner Bowman were not notified. What has come back is another proposal, which is basically the same as this, except that "a small staff of professionals would be employees of the center, drawing upon Treasure Coast Regional Planning staff for support and assistance." The number of employees is increased over what was originally proposed. Public Works Director Jim Davis felt that if the proposed committee would have some regional clout either with the DOT District #4 or with the State to enhance transportation funding into this area, it might be a good thing. However, if it is going to be just a critique committee that is going to critique some of the action that the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council is taking on DRIs and major projects in the community, he wasn't quite sure what benefit it would have for our county. Robert Keating, Director of Community Development, also had some concerns, but felt such a committee probably would be a good idea because it doesn't involve a lot of this county's dollars. One of the advantages would be if they could focus their thinking in the right direction in looking at the whole demand side of the transportation function and develop some alternate techniques. DEC 12 1989 61 800y 78 PAGE 635 Dia 1989 n OUn 78 Fr�.UE D Commissioner Scurlock was concerned that the think tank probably would devote most of its time to Palm Beach County, which has the largest population of the four Treasure Coast counties. He was also concerned that the committee would think a way to get around the concurrency issue, which involves building only as much development as the infrastructure will support. He also felt the people of Florida have turned their backs on mass transit. Commissioner Bird believed there is a need for better inter - county travel, but he felt the biggest thing that would help this county is another major north/south route between this county and St. Lucie County, such as 27th Avenue. Extensive discussion ensued regarding the pros and cons of agreeing to participation in the transportation think tank committee. Commissioner Eggert explained that she basically placed this on today's Agenda to get the feelings of the Board about participating in this committee, and the Board agreed that Commissioners Eggert and Bowman should convey this Board's sympathy to the group on our not participating in the proposed committee. SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL DISTRICT MEETING The Chairman announced that immediately upon adjournment, the Board would reconvene sitting as the District Board of Commissioners of the Solid Waste Disposal District. Those Minutes are being prepared separately. 62 There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded and carried, the Board adjourned at 10:58 o'clock A.M.
