Florida Power & Light to Purchase Right -of -Way
February 12, 1991
FILE: easemt.agn
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
Florida Power & Light is requesting a 10' wide by 50' long
easement located at the south west corner of the intersection
of 90th Avenue and SW 4th Street. This easement would cover
an aerial encroachment of this parcel with a new/upgrade line
they are planning to build along the south side of SW 4th
Street.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING
Staff recommends granting an easement as described above.
Staff requests the Chairman sign the attached easement form.
Administrator Chandler wished to clarify that this is an
easement, not a purchase of right-of-way.
Commissioner Scurlock wanted assurance that staff has fully
researched this and looked at the Tong -range implication in terms
of expansion of that intersection. He felt it is important to
make sure that when we go to expand that intersection in 5 or 10
years from now, our future road program is not jeopardized.
Administrator Chandler advised that the granting of the
easement for overhead lights does not conflict with any short or
Tong -range plans that the County has for this intersection.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously granted
an easement as described above to FP&L, as recommended
by staff.

INDIAN RIVER CITRUS LEAGUE'S POSITION ON PROPOSED CONSOLIDATION
AND UNIFICATION OF EMERGENCY SERVICES
John J. Morrison, speaking on behalf of the Indian River
Citrus League, stated that they are not opposed to the
forthcoming referendum. To the contrary, they are actively in
support of it. The problem was that they were given some
misinformation regarding the taxation of citrus groves whereby an
80 -acre grove, for example, would be taxed at inception at the
present levels of $750 per year going up to $1050 a year. The
West Fire District is almost entirely agriculture, and League
members were worried that the current low millage would skyrocket
to the level of the urban areas. However, in going over the
County's detailed plan with Emergency Management Director Doug
Wright, the proposed taxation comes out identically all the way
down as to where the participation in cost is and the utilization
is of fire services and EMS services. Therefore, their position
is that they are strongly in support of the referendum, and hope
it will be supported throughout the county. Mr. Morrison felt
the county's fire services and ALS system are first class and
worth every cent of taxation that is proposed.
Commissioner Wheeler thanked Mr. Morrison for the
considerable time he spent going over this matter with staff and
coming before the Board today to clarify the League's position on
the referendum.
Mr. Morrison wished to point out that the Citrus League is a
low -profile operation. There are some 70,000 acres of citrus
groves in this county, but because most of the acreage is
westward, people don't realize the magnitude of the operation or
the extent of the export sales to Asia and Europe. The citrus
industry is the largest business in the county and still the
largest employer in the county. One out of every 5 people in the
county are directly or indirectly employed by the citrus
16
industry. In conclusion, Mr. Morrison reiterated the League's
support of the consolidation of services and commended the fine
fire and EMS services in the county.
Chairman Bird expressed the Board's appreciation of the
Citrus League's support.
William Koolage, 815 26th Avenue, also wished to express his
support of the unification of the fire districts. He felt it is
a real forward step for the county, and hoped to see the con-
solidation implemented as soon as possible.

SUBJECT: PLAT VACATION REQUEST FOR A PORTION OF CAMBRIDGE PARK
SUBDIVISION AND REQUEST FOR FINAL PLAT APPROVAL FOR
SECOND REPLAT OF A PORTION OF CAMBRIDGE PARK SUBDIVISION
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular
meeting of February 19, 1991.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
Paul Domico, on behalf of William C. Brown Company, Publishers
(Incorporated), is requesting that the Board of County
Commissioners vacate a portion of the Cambridge Park Subdivision as
recorded in Plat Book 12, Pages 98, 98A and 98B, Public Records of
Indian River County, Florida. The portion of the plat to be
vacated (see Attachment #4) includes lots 6 through 27, 32 through
50, 57 through 68 and 104 through 113 (inclusive), all of which are
owned by William C. Brown Company, Publishers (Incorporated). All
the subject property is located within the Cambridge Park
Subdivision (see Attachment #3). Along with this plat vacation
request, Paul Domico is also requesting approval of a Second Replat
to replat the area to be vacated.
The portion, of the plat to be vacated will not affect any public or
private facilities or access rights other than what relates to the
lots being vacated as the owner, William C. Brown, Publishers
(Incorporated), has decided to replat the vacated area in order to
provide fewer residential units within the subdivision. The
submitted final replat conforms to the preliminary plat approved by
the Planning and Zoning Commission at its September 20, 1990
meeting. Neither the plat vacation nor the replat request will
actually affect the existing subdivision improvements (i.e. roads,
utilities and drainage, etc.). The plat vacation is required to
properly allow the replatting of the same area.
ANALYSIS:
According to Chapter 177.•101 of the Florida Statutes, the Board of
County Commissioners has the authority to vacate plats in whole or
in part, returning all or portions of the property into acreage.
The vacation is accomplished by resolution of the Board. Before
the resolution can be approved by the County Commission:
18
1. It must be shown that the persons making application for
the vacation own fee simple title to that part of the
tract covered by the plat sought to be vacated.
2. It must be shown that the vacation will not affect the
ownership or right of convenient access of persons owning
other parts of the subdivision.
3. Notice of the intention to apply to the County -Commission
for vacation of the plat must be published in a newspaper
of general circulation.
4. Proof of publication of the petition for vacation must be
attached to the petition.
5. Certificates showing that all State and County taxes have
been paid must be provided.
The applicant has submitted all of the above information which has
been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's Office. Thus,
all state requirements concerning plat vacation have been met, and
staff has no objections to the requested vacation.
Requirements for final plat approval have been satisfied for the
requested Second Replat. Staff has no objections to granting final
plat approval for this Second Replat.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners:
1. Adopt the attached resolution vacating lots 6 through 27, 32
through 50, 57 through 68 and 104 through 113 (inclusive) of
the Cambridge Park plat as recorded in Plat Book 12, Page 98A
and 98B;
2. authorize the Chairman to sign the plat vacation resolution;
and
3. approve the submitted Cambridge Park Second Replat.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing, and asked if anyone
wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he closed
the Public Hearing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved the
submitted Cambridge Park Second Replat and adopted
Resolution 91-20, vacating lots 6 through 27,
through 50, 57 through 68 and 104 through 113
(inclusive) of the Cambridge Park plat as recorded in
Plat Book 12, Page 98A and 98B.

HOUSE SITE
BACKGROUND
The Board, during its December 18, 1990 regular meeting, approved the new
courthouse site and authorized staff to proceed with land acquisition. The
Board has approved a public hearing for the March 5, 1991 Commission
meeting to execute Lots 1 & 2, BIk. 45 and Lot 3.1, Blk. 45 Option

property owners.
CURRENT
Bernice Meyer, owner of Lots 12 & 13, Block 44, Dave Whitfield, owner of Lot

their property for $138,000, $125,000, and $104,000 respectively. These
prices are consistent with the acquisition budget. The property owners have
signed Option to Purchase and Contract for Sale and Purchase Agreements.
The Whitfield property has four month-to-month leases attached to it but the

Lots 1 & 2, Block 45 and Lot 3.1, Block 45 are being acquired according to
Section 125.355 F.S. which allows the County to not disclose its appraisals
but require a public hearing with 30 days notice. However, the Meyer,
Whitfield, and Diggs property appraisals were made available to the owners
and their acquisition is being made according to Chapter 73 F.S. and the
Resolution of Condemnation. Therefore the notice and public hearing are not
required.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Board approve Bernice Meyer's, Dave Whitfield's, and
Janice Diggs' Option to Purchase and Contract for Sale and Purchase
Agreements and authorize the Board Chairman to execute the agreement and
all other related necessary documents.

DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES
SUBJECT: OFFICE AND ADMINISTRATIVE SPACE NEEDS MASTER PLAN
BACKGROUND:
On November 20, 1990, the Board of County Commissioners authorized a
Request For Qualifications to be '.advertised for the subject
consulting services. A review committee was appointed by the County
Administrator and on January 2, 1991 five proposals were received for
review. On January 16, 1991, the committee met and heard oral
presentations from four of the five firms that submitted.
Through a point system three firms were ranked and on January 16,
1991 the Board authorized staff to negotiate with the number one firm
Vickrey, Ovresat, and Awsumb (VOA).
1NALYS IS :
Commissioner Scurlock and this writer met with VOA representatives on
February 5, 1991, and negotiated a contract at a not to exceed cost
of $85,000.00 with reimbursables not to exceed $745.00. This price
was to include the entire scope of work that was outlined in our
Request For Qualifications.
FUNDING:

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends approval of the contract and requests authorization
for their Chairman to execute the formal documents.
24
Chairman Bird asked Administrator Chandler if he felt we had
a need for this study at this time, and Administrator Chandler
stated that there was no question in his mind that we have a need
for this study. He expected it would be our road map for the
future for both our short and Tong -term needs. In addition, he
believed that this is a fair price for the magnitude of what we
are looking at.
Commissioner Scurlock reported on the point system used in
the ranking of the 3 firms. The only scope of service that
wasn't included in depth was the administrative aspect of EMS and
fire rescue, as that already was done.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously
approved the contract with Vickrey, Ovresat, and
Awsumb for an amount not to exceed $85,000 with

SUBJECT: FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT
COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL LOAD CONTROL PROGRAM
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Utility Services will be completing the 3 MGD
expansion of the South County R.O. Water plant within 60 days. An
integral part of this expansion was a new power generating system
for emergency requirements. This generating system also will enable
the Department to participate in a new Commercial/Industrial Load
Control Program with Florida Power and Light, and take advantage of
reduced electrical operating costs.
26
ANALYSIS:
By participating in the Commercial/Industrial Load Control Program,
the Department could potentially realize annual savings of
approximately $30,000.00, projected by using actual consumption data
and operating conditions for the period November 1989 through
October 1990. The Program grants reduced rates for the privilege of
interrupting electrical loads as previously agreed to under the
agreement. The plant would normally generate its own power in these
emergency situations. The Department of Utility Services requests
approval to enter. into the Commercial/Industrial Load Program
Agreement with Florida Power and Light, to become effective with the
completion of the new generating system at the South County R.O.
Water Plant.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of
County Commissioners approve the Department's request to enter into
the Commercial/Industrial Load Program Agreement with Florida Power
and Light and authorize execution of the Agreement.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously approved
the Utility Department's request to enter into the
Commercial/Industrial Load Program Agreement with
FP&L and authorized execution of the Agreement.

Board of County Commissioners authorize payment of the attached
proposed invoice.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bowman, that the Board authorize
payment of the invoice, as set out in the
above staff recommendation.
Under discussion, Commissioner Scurlock asked why we don't
include the cost for manuals in the original scope of service,
and Director Pinto explained that we follow the procedure
outlined in the Farmers Home Administration curve which sets it

ENSION
-DS
BACKGROUND:
On November 13, 1990, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved a contract with Belvedere Construction
Company for the above -listed job. We now wish to have them extend
our water line on 48th Court, between 16th Street and Old Sugar Mill
Estates.
ANALYSIS:
There are eight 1/2 -acre lots that will be assessed on a voluntary
basis for the construction of this line. The cost of this
construction is $14,998.00, which equates to $1,874.75 per lot.
This line will provide a backup feed line for Sugar Mill Estates, as
well as for 10th Street. Monies 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 change order No.
1 with Belvedere Construction Company.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, that the Board approve Change
Order No. 1 with Belvedere Construction Company.
Under discussion, Commissioner Scurlock felt that we need to
be extremely careful when extending contracts. He felt it is an
easy habit to get into because it is convenient and many times it
does save us money, but we need to be cautious that it doesn't
become too comfortable and that we always make sure that we get
- 32
additional quotes in some formalized fashion when we extend a
unit price.
His suggestion would be to require at least a
verifiable quote
from 3 other suppliers of that same service that
would be followed up with a written memo. He felt that would
give us protection and eliminate any criticism that we might have
in the future and would make sure that we are in the ball game
since economical factors do change.
of this job, however.
He understood the uniqueness
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was
voted on and carried unanimously.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
During the February 7, 1991 meeting of the Parks and
Recreation Committee, the following recommendations were made
by the Committee:
1) Staff prepare a Florida Inland Navigation District Grant
application and Florida Boating Improvement Program Grant
application to construct road paving, parking lot paving,
restroom building, dock, and boat ramp improvements at
Round Island Park. Estimated Project Cost = $300,000
2) Remove the Mudboggin' Track improvements at the County
Fairgrounds since the licensee has not utilized the
facility in the past two years. In addition, the Remote
Control Car Track will be posted "No Trespassing" at this
time.
3) Approve Posting of Manatee Information signs at Round
Island Boat Ramp.
4) Retain a consultant to Master Plan improvements for
Donald McDonald Park.
Staff concurs with these recommendations and request they be
forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners as a Committee
Report.

RooK Fact 731
Chairman Bird noted that a few of the above items require
Board action:
1) Public Works Director Jim Davis advised that we have
finished a conceptual plan, the application is completed, and the
resolutions that have to accompany the application are completed
and will be on next week's agenda. The plans at this stage are
very preliminary, and as we move closer to the commencement of
construction, we will complete plans in-house. He expected that
the costs of all that will be paid by FIND or the Boating
Improvement Fund, which is why there is no request for any money
at this time. When the above memo was written on February 11th,
we were not as far into the design as we are now. The exact
figures may change a little bit, but we are trying to utilize the
grant money to the maximum and keep back any local contribution
monies. What is needed this morning is authorization to proceed
with the grant application.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously authorized
staff to proceed with the grant application, noting
that there is no request for funds at this time.
2) Chairman Bird advised that under the agreement, the licensee
is required to put the site back and any improvements that were
made on that site will revert to the County. There probably will
be a problem in them having the money to restore it to its
original condition, but because this hole poses a liability, we
could authorize Public Works to restore it. The main expense
would be filling in the hole and some fill itself.
Commissioner Scurlock felt that in future lease agreements
we should provide for these type of "improvements" that will not
benefit the County after the licensee has pulled out, and
Chairman Bird agreed.
34
The Commissioners agreed that Public Works should go ahead
and restore the site to its original condition.
3) ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously authorized
the posting of manatee information signs at Round
Island Boat ramp.
4) Chairman Bird advised that we have been put on notice by the
Forestry Services that they probably will not be able to maintain
Donald McDonald Park due to property constraints within their
organization. As far as ',retaining a consultant, he felt that we
could probably wait until next year's budget when, and if, the
Committee actually determines that we need a consultant. We do
have a master plan of the area which was done by the University
of Florida a few years ago, and we need to review that and bring
it to the Board to see if that is generally what we want to see
there. If it is, we can go ahead and hire someone to formalize
some kind of development plan.
Director Davis understood then that he would include it in
next year's budget, and Chairman Bird advised that the P&R
Committee would be reviewing the existing plan at their next
meeting to see what we want to do there in the future.

ROOK F',1�E 7�.�6)
Commissioner Bowman advised that the cost to the County for
a right -turn deceleration Zane from Indian River Boulevard into
Fairlane Harbor would be between $6,000 and $7,000.
Commissioner Scurlock wondered if approval of this request
would set a precedent for residential developments along SR -60,
but Director Davis advised that Indian River Boulevard is a
county road and SR -60 is a state road which has to go through the
DOT criteria. There have been other turn lanes put in along
Indian River Boulevard, but they were paid for by the developers,
such as Wal-Mart. However, those were new developments that were
site planning at the same time that the road was under
construction. If the traffic generation warrants it, we usually
include the existing facilities into the design of the roadway
when the roadway is being built. In the case of Fairlane Harbor,
we put in a southbound left -turn lane, but not a northbound right
turn lane. Our thinking at that time was that we just didn't
feel that the trip generation was that heavy for that particular
movement.
Commissioner Scurlock noted that they could have used the
design criteria of the DOT, but Director Davis explained that at
that time DOT didn't have specific criteria for determining
whether or not a right -turn lane was required. They have since
revised their access management plan and do have more specific
criteria included in the plan now.
Commissioner Eggert cautioned that if the Board approves
this, it should be with the assumption that there is a clear
difference between a county road and a state road.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously
approved the request for the County to construct a
right -turn deceleration lane on Indian River Boulevard
at Fairlane Harbor.
SUPPORT OF PROPOSED LEGISLATION TO INCREASE STATE AID ALLOCATION
TO FLORIDA LIBRARIES
Commissioner Eggert reported that proposed state
legislation, Senate Bill 364, would increase state aid allocation
to Florida libraries, and asked if the Board would be willing to
write a letter in support of the bill since figures have come out
showing that Florida ranks low among other states in allocating
state aid for public libraries. The increase would come from the
Library Administration Trust Fund.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously authorized
Chairman Bird to send letters in support of additional
funding ability for local libraries out of the Library
Revenue Trust Fund to legislators Patsy Kurth, Charles
Sembler, and Bud Bronson.
CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD
Commissioner Eggert advised that we are having difficulty in
finding a replacement for Monte Halls in the Engineering
category. We have received one application from a retired
engineer who would have the time to do this.
Chairman Bird asked if we could hold off a week so that he
could have an opportunity to read this gentleman's resume.
The Board agreed to put this back on the Agenda in the next
week or so.
