CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICERS AND GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES 9.A. LESLIE R. SWAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY SUPERVISOR OF ELECTIONS.- REPORT LECTIONS. REPORT OF SEVERAL LEGISLATIVE CHANGES REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF NEW VOTING SYSTEM Supervisor of Elections Leslie Swan recalled that she had informed the Board on March 5, 2013, that her office, in accordance with Statute 101.56075, was required to purchase and implement a new voting system for persons with disabilities by the year 2016; however, by the conclusion of the 2013 Legislation Session, that mandate was pushed back to 2020. She February 18, 2014 8 reminded the Board that she had expressed concerns over the current vendor not being able to provide backup memory cartridges, but last month she received notification that the vendor could supply them, so she will purchase them with funds from her existing budget. Ms. Swan felt the postponement would benefit the County since it will allow funds to be put away for the acquisition of a new voting system after the 2016 Presidential election, and additionally, it will allow her office to meet the projected equipment needs of the growing number of people in the County. She also spoke about Electronic Voter Identification (EViD) Poll Books, and how they are intended to make voter check-in easier and quicker. She said her office plans to budget money in the next fiscal year to replace the original EViD's that will no longer be able to be serviced. Commissioner Zorc suggested Ms. Swan bring the Board a three or four-year plan of her budget so it could be divided over numerous budget cycles. 10. PUBLIC ITEMS 10.A. PUBLICHEARINGS -NONE 10.B. PUBLICDISCUSSIONITEMS 10.B.1.

NO BOARD ACTION REQUIRED OR TAKEN February 18, 2014 9 fir• lOAZ REQUEST TO SPEAK FROM WAAD,4 SGGi WILLIAM MOSLEY, AND BILL RIGBY, GIFFORD ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL REGARDING F+'rrnRAcy (Clerk's Note: Item 14.D.2. was heard in conjunction with this item, and is placed here for continuity) Reverend William Mosley believed the Gifford community to be in a state of emergency regarding the quality of life. He read an excerpt from the 24/7 Wall Street website regarding the United States having the fourth worst income equality compared to other developed countries, and spoke about eliminating the wide income gap between the rich and the poor. He emphasized that in order for the community to grow and move forward, they need jobs, growth, businesses, improved infrastructure, and economic development. He thereafter requested the Board to provide him with written answers to questions that were posed in 2013 regarding Gifford issues. Commissioner Solari requested Mr. Mosley to put his questions in writing so staff can respond clearly and timely. There was a brief discussion and debate regarding Gifford representation, endorsement of Mr. Mosley's product (tablet holder), and commitment. Chairman O'Bryan said he would request staff to review the 5 -Year Capital Improvement Element and pull any projects relating to Gifford, and provide a summary of all community meetings held in the Gifford community over the past nine months. Bill Rigby, 8465 59th Avenue, emphasized that he was in attendance today to discuss economic issues, not the trash business. He stressed the need for growth in Gifford and believed that if everyone works together, the Gifford community can move forward with improvement. February 18, 2014 10 Commissioner Solari said that he had met with Mr. Mosley and members of the Gifford community on February 12, 2014 to discuss the Gifford Economic Development Council, Inc. (GEDC). He felt there was still a lot of misinformation in the community regarding the proper functions of County Government, as opposed to different Government Agencies, and reiterated that he would be glad to return to Gifford to continue discussions on a regular basis. He also noted that he had taken a list of questions to the GEDC meeting, and thought it would be reasonable to ask basic financial and organizational questions of leadership, and believed it would be appropriate to ask questions similar to those that would be asked of any nonprofit seeking financial support from County government. He agreed that individuals need to work together and get a better grasp on the information out there to succeed. 10.B.3. BE UEST TO SPEAK FROM SHAWN FROST, THE GREEN PATROL, REGARDING HELPING WITH GREEN CERTIFICATION 1 GREEN HEART A wARDs Shawn R. Frost, founder and CEO of the Green Patrol, recalled that at the February 11, 2014 Solid Waste Disposal District meeting, Jeremy Nelson had provided a brief overview of the Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC) and the ways in which the Coalition can help counties achieve the green government standard, and he wanted to know what the Board's decision was for recertification. Vice Chairman O'Bryan informed Mr. Frost that the item had been tabled, and that Mr. Nelson, or a FGBC representative, would be returning to the Board with additional information regarding the benefits to the County for recertifying with the FGBC. He admitted that the Board did not feel they could justify spending taxpayers' dollars on recertification to maintain the County's Green Local Government status. Mr. Frost said that he wanted to offer a service through the Green Patrol (thegreenpatrol.org) that would require no tax dollars, create jobs that would help keep Indian River County clean, focus on cleaning the Lagoon, boost the economy, and provide funding to February 18, 2014 11 ,► pursue the green certification. He said his plan would include three paid certified inspectors and 19 volunteer certified inspectors to help "green up" local businesses, as well as the County. He plans to start hiring and training on March 3rd, and will be recognizing nonprofits, for -profits, and individuals who do well on the Saturday before Earth Day.

DEPARTMENTAL MATTERS 12.A. COMMUNITYDEVELOPMENT 12 A 1 REQUEST FROM STAFF FOR AUTHORIZATION TO INITIATE AN LDR AMENDMENT TO CREATE SPECIAL OVERLAY REGULATIONS FOR THE WEST GIFFORD INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCE (WGIC) AREA oN 163 ACRES OF PROPERTY IN WEST GIFFORD ZONED IG (GENERAL INDUSTRIAL) Community Development Director Stan Boling recapped his memorandum dated February 3, 2014, providing background, conditions, and analysis pertaining to staff's request for authorization to: (1) update the draft overlay regulations for the West Gifford Industrial and Commerce (WGIC) area (163 acres bordered by 43rd Avenue on the east, 58th Avenue on the west, 45th Street on the north, and 41" Street on the south), which is zoned as General Industrial (IG); and (2) initiate the formal process for adopting the draft regulations. He recommended the Board authorize staff to initiate a Land Development Regulation (LDR) Amendment for the WGIC overlay regulations (as opposed to a rezoning approach), invoke the pending ordinance doctrine, and direct staff to apply the draft regulations in the interim. A lengthy discussion ensued as Commissioners posed questions to staff and expressed opinions on the soundness of the pending ordinance doctrine; the criteria proposed for the three special exception uses (batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities) in West Gifford's IG zoned property; the requirements for IG and Light Industrial (IL) zoning; and grandfathering uses. February 18, 2014 13 Chairman O'Bryan reiterated that currently the demolition debris site and the concrete batch plants have permitted rights, and at today's meeting, the Board is not adding these uses to the Gifford area, they are considering changing them from permitted to special exception uses, which requires a public notice process, a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission, and a public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners, which allows more public input. Chairman O'Bryan opened the floor to public comments. The following individuals spoke in support of staff's recommendation to create special WGIC overlay regulations: Joe Idlette III, 4570 57th Avenue, and President of the Progressive Civic League of Gifford, FL, Inc.

MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Flescher, SECONDED by Commissioner Solari, to direct staff to: (1) initiate the formal process of amending the Land Development Regulations (LDRs) to create the West Gifford Industrial and Commerce (WGIC) overlay regulations; (2) invoke the pending ordinance doctrine; and (3) apply the draft WGIC overlay regulations to development applications until final regulations are formally adopted. Following the lengthy discussion, Commissioners expressed their views over staff's proposal; protecting the business community; and finding a balance for landscaping improvements. Chairman O'Bryan voiced his opposition to the Motion, preferring to bar concrete plants and demolition debris facilities from Gifford. February 18, 2014 15 A Director Boling reiterated that this item is not an adoption hearing. He voiced concerns over mulch hard -bottom floors in the Best Management Practices (BMP) guidelines; stated that the existing junk yards along 45th Street need to upgrade, replace, or hide their broken fences; and noted that staff would return to the Board with cost information for beautification projects. The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and by a 4-1 vote (Chairman O'Bryan opposed), the Motion carried. The Chairman called for a break at 1:49 p.m., and reconvened the meeting at 2:15 p.m., with all members present. 12.A.2. REVIEW OF INEOS NEW PLANET BIOENERGY LLC's AD VALOREM TAX EXEMPTIONANNUAL REPORT Director Boling reviewed his memorandum dated February 10, 2014, presenting INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC's (INEOS) request to continue with its economic development ad valorem tax exemption requirements. He said that after review of the INEOS January 2014 annual report, staff found that INEOS's 2013 performance scored the same number of points under the County's scoring guidelines, as scored on its 2011 tax abatement application, and therefore asked the Board to find INEOS in compliance with the tax abatement requirements. ON MOTION by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by Vice Chairman Davis, the Board unanimously found that INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC is currently in compliance with its ad valorem tax exemption requirements, as recommended in the memorandum of February 10, 2014. 12.B.

He reviewed the details of the Fire Rescue's ambulance fleet, rescue engine fleet, and the projected five-year replacement schedule. He requested the Board to approve the funding plan in concept and authorize a budget amendment from Optional Sales Tax for three replacement ambulances. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Flescher, SECONDED by Commissioner Solari, to approve staff s recommendation. Discussion ensued regarding funding options; lead time delays for ordering parts and vehicles; additional fire stations; and staff having applied for a Federal Grant. February 18, 2014 17 The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the Motion carried unanimously. The Board: (1) approved in concept the projected Five -Year Plan for the replacement of front line fire rescue vehicles; (2) a Budget Amendment in the amount of $700,000 from Optional Sales Tax Reserves for the purchase of three (3) replacement ambulances; and (3) additional capital necessary to provide Fire Rescue Services for the current fiscal year, all as recommended in the memorandum of February 12, 2014. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Zorc to direct staff to purchase four (4) defibrillator units, using District Funds. MOTION DIED for lack of a Second. Administrator Baird advised that four defibrillator units would cost about $120,000. Commissioner Solari suggested this item be tabled to the next Board of County Commission meeting so it can be properly noticed. Staff agreed, and Commissioner Zorc withdrew his motion. 12.H.

He said she will be educating the public on the components of the new Fertilizer Ordinance, and also handle enforcement. Alexis Thomas described her background and education, and expressed her enthusiasm in helping to restore the estuary, educate the public, and enforce the Fertilizer Ordinance. Chairman O'Bryan requested that in addition to her regular duties, she assist the Environmental Learning Center (ELC) with their programs, and undertake the job of touring certain groups throughout the County to show them some of the County's projects. 12J. UTILITIES SERVICES 12..1.1. SEWER FEASIBILITYSTUDY FOR THE SUMMERPLACE AREA —RESULTS (Clerk's Note: This Item was heard following Item 14.D. L, and is placed here for continuity) Director of Utility Services Vincent Burke recalled the Board's approval on August 20, 2013, for a Feasibility Study to provide professional services to investigate the feasibility of installing centralized sewer services. Using a Prezi presentation (copy on file), he provided description and analysis of the three types of sewer collection systems (gravity based, vacuum, and low pressure) that could be used in the Summerplace area, and the cost for each. He said the results of the study showed the vacuum alternative to be the preferred method for a centralized sewer system, but the Utility Department prefers the gravity based system. He used a February 18, 2014 19 construction schematic in his presentation to show the proposal for 52 gravity based systems in the southeast portion of Summerplace, and 217 vacuum systems in the west, for a total of 264 residential parcels. He recommended the Board approve moving forward with the vacuum based system in the west, and a hybrid gravity based system in the southeast corner to tie into the existing lift station. He also asked that the information be added to the County's website. Chairman O'Bryan questioned the STEP (Septic Tank and Effluent Pump) system, and whether it had been evaluated. Joseph Schulke, Schulke, Bittle and Stoddard, LLC, said his scope was limited so he did not price out a STEP system. He discussed the items that had been considered, explained his research, and noted that at least half of the septic tanks in Summerplace were built prior to 1483, which means they are substandard in size (750 gallons), and for the STEP system to work, they need to be at least 1,000 gallons. He also pointed out that the Environmental Protection Agency's manuals recommend replacing the entire septic tank, which would increase prices substantially. ON MOTION by Vice Chairman Davis, SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, the Board unanimously authorized: (1) staff to determine the next phase; (2) staff to present the findings to the Summerplace Home Owners Association; and (3) staff to publish both Feasibility Studies on the County's website, as recommended in the memorandum of January 30, 2014. The Chairman called for a break at 3:21 p.m., and reconvened the meeting at 3:30 p.m., with all members present. February 18, 2014 20 13. COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS B.A. PERMISSION TO FILE SUIT FOR AN INJUNCTION AGAINST PERSISTENT CODE VIOLATOR (Clerk's Note: This item was heard following Item 12.A.2. and is placed here for continuity) Attorney Reingold provided background regarding a consistent violator (William Ruetemann) who has been operating a boat repair business in his back yard. He disclosed staff's many attempts to bring this item to the Code Enforcement Board, and said that staff is now seeking permission from the Board to go to Court, seek an injunction, and obtain a definitive ruling on this issue. Helen Curtis, 8131 135th Street, Roseland, representing herself and her neighbors, conveyed that Mr. Ructemann engages in vessel repair in his back yard, which entails sanding, fiberglassing, painting, and overall construction of vessels. She noted that this activity should be conducted in an enclosed structure with specific designed air ventilation, and protective clothing. She complained about the noise, contaminated air, and health issues. She reported that she and her neighbors have been working with Code Enforcement to stop Mr. Ruetemann's activities, but now they are seeking Board assistance. ON MOTION by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, the Board unanimously authorized the County Attorney's Office to file suit in Circuit Court for injunctive relief, asking the Court to force Mr. Ruetemann to cease and desist the unauthorized boat repair business, and to stop storing boats on his property that are not registered to him, as recommended in the memorandum of February 12, 2014. February 18, 2014 21 13.B. INDIAN RIVER LAGOON COUNTIES COLLABORATIVE — PROPOSED INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Attorney Reingold provided background regarding the creation of the Interlocal Agreement for the Indian River Lagoon Counties Collaborative, which consists of bylaws and a document that formally recognizes the Collaborative with a sunset provision. He requested that the Board review and approve the Agreement before it is presented to the governing bodies of the various Collaborative members for their approval. ON MOTION by Vice Chairman Davis, SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, the Board unanimously approved the Interlocal Agreement with the various other County members of the Indian River Lagoon Counties Collaborative (Volusia, Brevard, Indian River, St. Lucie, �r and Martin Counties), and authorized the Chairman to A execute it on behalf of the Board, as recommended in the memorandum of February 11, 2014.

SEBASTIANEQUALIZATIONFEE (Clerk's Note: This Item was heard following Item 12.1.1., and is placed here for continuity) Commissioner Solari read his memorandum dated February 10, 2014, regarding the County's purchase of Sebastian's water and sewer utility system in 1995, it being consolidated into the County's system, and because Sebastian's debt was assumed, the County began billing Sebastian customers an "equalization charge." He believed that after many years of the County charging the fee, the charge has equalized between the County and Sebastian customers. He found no justification for the continuation of this charge, and felt all citizens in the County should be treated fairly. Administrator Baird provided history on the equalization charge, and said it is a policy J decision for the Board. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by Vice Chairman Davis, to direct the County Administrator to eliminate the Sebastian equalization charge, which currently appears on Sebastian water and sewer bills. Discussion and debate ensued regarding the 6% equalization charge for non -incorporated area customers; and the reduction of about $200,000 in revenue to the County's General Fund if the fee is eliminated. Chairman O'Bryan wanted to know what the effective date would be. 9 February 18, 2014 23 C C-1 co 9� -0 t co 0 =r U) (D (D 70 701 0 Cr C/) CD (n (D (D -n 0 a) =r 0 (D l< CD CL z a -n c) CL A. ;o 0 ll) ID CD (n 0 0 C) ac 0 QL 0 < OL) :3 - < -n m 0 < = 7, — =r < _0 0 _0 Cf) 0 CD CD (1) c Oz ::p 2 =37 -1 ::p (D CD CD c Z CD CL — 3 m " 0- m F), CD m w "1 0 o cn x 0 -n (D 0 (A D su - , Q- co cn 0 =r fA (D 3 cn c =3 0 - ID (D cn - D w - = 0 cn CD M.

The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 4-1 vote (Chairman O'Bryan opposed), the Motion carried Attorney Reingold noted that in 1995, the Board had adopted Resolution 95-16, which established the 6% equalization rate, and said his office would draft a resolution stating that the rate equalization charge is no longer necessary, and bring it back to the Board in March. 14.D.2.

Swan Supervisor ofElections i February 3, 2014 Indian River County The Honorable Peter O'Bryan, Chairman Board of county Commissioners Indian River County 180027 th Street, Building A Vero Beach, FL 32960 Dear Chairman O'Bryan: On March 5, 2013, 1 appeared before the Board of County Commissioners to inform the Board that by the year 2016, the Supervisor of Elections office would be required to purchase and implement a new voting system to be in compliance with current election laws. At the time of my presentation, Florida Statute 101.56075 stated, "By the year 2016, persons with disabilities shall vote on a voter interface device that meets the voter accessibility requirements for individuals with disabilities under s. 301 of the Federal Help America Vote Act of 2002." Simple interpretation, persons with disabilities shall have the opportunity to vote, unassisted, utilizing a paper ballot. Currently, persons with disabilities in Indian River County have the option of voting on a touchscreen voting machine. The touchscreen unit allows voters to cast their ballot electronically, there is no paper ballot. Our Sequoia Edge touchscreen voting machines do not meet the paper ballot mandate indicated in the above statute. At the conclusion of the 2013 Legislative session, new legislation was enacted which pushed back the deadline for implementation of F.S. 101.56075 to the year 2020. This new deadline is good news for Indian River County and gives our county some breathing room before we are mandated to purchase a new voting system. During my March 5, 2013 presentation to the Board, I expressed concerns in reference to obtaining replacement memory packs for our existing optical scan voting equipment. Indian River County does not have a large supply of back-up memory packs. In November of 2012 following the General Election, I contacted our vendor to purchase additional memory packs for our voting equipment, and the representative informed me: "I've had the team hunt for additional inventory but it looks like the remaining inventory is being held as warranty replacements and cannot be used for ne sales." ay d- '` ARK FL 32967 1 Office: (772) 226-3440 Fax: (772) 770 536ff February 3, 2014 Page Two (2) Without a sufficient supply of back-up memory packs, Indian River County is left in a vulnerable position. I recently made another attempt to attain additional memory packs from our vendor. On January 20, 2014, 1 received an email from our representative at Dominion Voting stating he was able to acquire 17 memory packs. I am in the process of purchasing the 17 additional "back-up" memory packs. As a standard practice, we send these refurbished memory packs to the Bureau of Voting Systems Certification in Tallahassee to be tested before Indian River County can accept the cartridges for use in our tabulation system. I have also taken several precautionary measures to assure our voting equipment is well maintained. In June 2011, my staff shipped all of our optical scan memory packs to our vendor's facility in California, to be inspected and serviced, including replacing their internal batteries. This past October, I arranged to have our vendor travel to our facility and perform preventive maintenance on all 65 of our optical scan voting machines and two 400C high-speed ballot counters. I now feel confident that Indian River County can utilize our current voting system through the 2016 presidential election. In 2017, Indian River County's 400C high speed counters and touchscreen voting equipment will be (Iiiw 15 years old and our optical scan voting machines will be 9 years old. I believe our county can put off purchasing a new voting system until FY 2016 - 2017. This postponement also leaves additional time for funds to be set aside during the ensuing fiscal years for this necessary expenditure. Our county is rapidly moving toward 100,000 registered voters and should surpass that number prior to the end of this year. As our numbers grow, so will our equipment needs. The extension of time to purchase a new voting system will allow our county to thoroughly research all of our vendor options and projected equipment needs for the future. Further, Indian River County was one of the original counties to purchase electronic poll books (EViD's) which greatly enhance the speed and accuracy of checking -in voters at the polling location. The use of EViD's is one reason why the voters in Indian River County do not have to wait in long lines to vote. Indian River County has a total of 115 electronic poll books which were deployed during the 2012 Presidential election. The retirement date for IRC's original 59 EViD units is rapidly approaching and Indian River County must begin the process of acquiring new EViD's in the coming years. Once the retirement date is reached on an EViD, the vendor will no longer support the equipment (service, parts, etc...). During the coming fiscal years, our office plans to budget money to purchase replacement EViD's for those approaching their retirement date. 45 February 3, 2103 Page Three (3) Our supply of EViD's has served our county well and will continue to enhance efficiency at the polling location for the voters in Indian River County. Sincerely, Y`---) t-�� Leslie R. Swan Supervisor of Elections Enclosures cc: Commissioner Wesley Davis Commissioner Joseph Flescher Commissioner Bob Solari Commissioner Tim Zorc County Administrator Joe Baird 46 BACKGROUND: VOTING SYSTEMS IN INDIAN RIVER COUNTY 2000 — Present I want to provide you with some background detailing legislation that has affected voting equipment in Florida during the last several years. In 2001, the Legislature passed the Comprehensive Election Reform Act which banned punch card voting machines. In 2002, Indian River County purchased a new voting system utilizing touchscreen voting equipment at all polling locations. Indian River County paid $1,832,563 for the new voting technology from Sequoia Voting Systems which included voting equipment, software and firmware. During the 2007 Legislative session, House Bill 537 was passed and it required counties in Florida to use mark sense ballots (paper ballots) for precinct and early voting sites. It also required a touchscreen voting machine at each precinct and early voting site for voters with disabilities. The Legislature in 2007 provided money for Indian River County to purchase 54 optical scanners and to lease one Ballot -On -Demand printer to be used for early voting. The State gave Indian River County $310,500 to buy 54 optical scanners. That amounted to one optical scanner per precinct with none for training or back-up. A separate grant in the amount of $45,565.81 was available for leasing one Ballot -On -Demand printer for early voting/absentee printing needs and $17,250 for three optical scanners for early voting. At the time, the Department of State knew that the voting system equipment was and still is "vendor specific," and the Legislature did not intend for counties to buy a whole new voting system. The optical scanners were just one component of a voting system. (As I stated above, Indian River County paid approximately $2 million dollars in 2002 for an entire new voting system.) In 2007, Indian River County already had the Sequoia software for the tabulation system, the ballot layout software, the hardware and software to count absentee ballots, and we had the touchscreen voting machines needed to use in each precinct and early voting site for voters with disabilities. The major component that was missing from Indian River County's voting system was the optical scan voting equipment and software to tabulate paper ballots. 47 Background Page Two (2) Legislation also passed in 2007 included Florida Statute 101.56075 (3) which stipulated "By 2012, persons with disabilities shall vote on a voter interface device that meets the voter accessibility requirements for individuals with disabilities under s. 301 of the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002. Under the assumption that by 2012, Indian River County would be required to purchase new voting equipment for persons with disabilities to comply with Florida Statute 101.56075, it made no sense for Indian River County to purchase a whole new voting system at the time. Indian River County chose to upgrade their current Sequoia voting system to comply with Nouse Bill 537 mandating the use of mark sense ballots (paper ballots) instead of purchasing a whole new voting system. The total cost for implementation of the Sequoia paper ballot voting component in 2008 was $685,565. In 2010, due to the lobbying efforts of the Florida State Association of Supervisors of Elections, the Florida Legislature voted to delay implementation of F.S. 101.56075 — By the year 2016, persons with disabilities shall vote on a voter interface device that meets the voter accessibility requirements for individuals with disabilities under s. 301. of the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002." Counties throughout Florida have either installed voting equipment that satisfies the requirements of F.S. 101.56075 or are in the process of funding and purchasing a voting system that complies with F.S. 101.56075. Also in 2010, Sequoia Voting Systems was acquired by Dominion Voting, Inc. Dominion Voting, Inc. has no device that meets the Legislative mandate outlined in F.S. 101.56075 that is compatible with Indian River County's current voting system, thus Indian River County would be required to purchase a new voting system in the near future. During the 2013 Legislative session, the Florida Legislature again voted to delay implementation of F.S. 101.56075 — By the year 2020, persons with disabilities shall vote on a voter interface device that meets the voter accessibility requirements for individuals with disabilities under s. 301. of the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002." 48 Leslie Swan From: Jay Bollenbacher <jay.bollenbacher@dominionvoting.com> Sent: Monday, January 20, 2014 11:06 AM To: Leslie Swan Subject. RE: Sequoia Insight Leslie, Good newsl I was able to acquire and place on hold 17 memory packs so I need to know if you want to go ahead and purchase all 17. Please advise as soon as possible. I'm also working on pricing so I should have that shortly.

(b) The voting system must provide a method by which voters can confirm any tactile or audio input by having the capability of audio output using synthetic or recorded human speech that is reasonably phonetically accurate. (c) Any operable controls on the input device which are needed for voters who are visually impaired must be discernible tactilely without actuating the keys. (d) Audio and visual access approaches must be able to work both separately and simultaneously. (e) If a nonaudio access approach is provided, the system may not require color perception. The system must use black text or graphics, or both, on white background or white text or graphics, or both, on black background, unless the office of the Secretary of State approves other high-contrast color combinations that do not require color perception. (f) Any voting system that requires any visual perception must offer the election official who programs the system, prior to its being sent to the polling place, the capability to set the font size, as it appears to the voter, from a minimum of 14 points to a maximum of 24 points. (g) The voting system must provide audio information, including any audio output using synthetic or recorded human speech or any auditory feedback tones that are important for the use of the audio approach, through at least one mode, by handset or headset, in enhanced auditory fashion (increased amplification), and must provide incremental volume control with output amplification up to a level of at least 97 dB SPL. (h) For transmitted voice signals to the voter, the voting system must provide a gain adjustable up to a minimum of 20 dB with at least one intermediate step of 12 dB of gain. (i) For the safety of others, if the voting system has the possibility of exceeding 120 dB SPL, then a mechanism must be included to reset the volume automatically to the voting system's default volume level after every use, for example when the handset is replaced, but not before. Also, universal precautions in the use and sharing of headsets should be followed. (j) If sound cues and audible information such as "beeps" are used, there must be simultaneous corresponding visual cues and information. (k) Controls and operable mechanisms must be operable with one hand, including operability with a closed fist, and operable without tight grasping, pinching, or twisting of the wrist. (t) The force required to operate or activate the controls must be no greater than 5 pounds of force. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfin?App_Mode=Display_Statute&Search String=... 1/28/2014 51 UKiiiLtVJ w VVaaJiaLKUVaa . ♦ aV YT •.JiKiK iVJ . VtalaaaV VKaaJaaaaly (m) Voting booths must have voting controls at a minimum height of 36 inches above the finished floor with a minimum knee clearance of 27 inches high, 30 inches wide, and 19 inches deep, or the accessible voter interface devices must be designed so as to allow their use on top of a table to meet these requirements. Tabletop installations must include adequate privacy. (n) Any audio ballot must provide the voter with the following functionalities: 1. After the initial instructions that the system requires election officials to provide to each voter, the voter should be able to independently operate the voter interface through the final step of casting a ballot without assistance. 2. The voter must be able to determine the races that he or she is allowed to vote in and to determine which candidates are available in each race. 3. The voter must be able to determine how many candidates may be selected in each race. 4. The voter must be able to have confidence that the physical or vocal inputs given to the system have selected the candidates that he or she intended to select. 5. The voter must be able to review the candidate selections that he or she has made. 6. Prior to the act of casting the ballot, the voter must be able to change any selections previously made and confirm a new selection. 7. The system must communicate to the voter the fact that the voter has failed to vote in a race or has failed to vote the number of allowable candidates in any race and require the voter to confirm his or her intent to undervote before casting the ballot. 8. The system must prevent the voter from overvoting any race. 9. The voter must be able to input a candidate's name in each race that allows a write-in candidate. 10. The voter must be able to review his or her write-in input to the interface, edit that input, and confirm that the edits meet the voter's intent. 11. There must be a clear, identifiable action that the voter takes to "cast" the ballot. The system must make clear to the voter how to take this action so that the voter has minimal risk of taking the action accidentally but, when the voter intends to cast the ballot, the action can be easily performed. 12. Once the ballot is cast, the system must confirm to the voter that the action has occurred and that the voter's process of voting is complete. 13. Once the ballot is cast, the system must preclude the voter from modifying the ballot cast or voting or casting another ballot. The functionalities required in this paragraph for certification may be satisfied by either the voting device or by the entire voting system. (2) Such voting system must include at least one accessible voter interface device installed in each polling place which meets the requirements of this section, except for paragraph (1)(d).

BACKGROUND On September 14, 2010, in response to a request from staff and the Gifford Executive Group to address land use conflicts between industrial and residential properties in West Gifford, the Board of County Commissioners authorized staff to initiate the formal process to create the West Gifford �w Industrial & Commerce (WGIC) district and rezone 163 acres in West Gifford from IG (General Industrial) to WGIC (see attachment #2). At the 2010 meeting, the Board considered draft WGIC district regulations that retained most IG district uses, added a significant number of uses not allowed in the IG district, and eliminated a number of uses that are allowed in the IG district. In essence, the draft WGIC district regulations were structured to give affected property owners the right to develop their properties with a number of new uses in exchange for eliminating the right to develop other uses. Since the Board's 2010 rezoning authorization, staff has coordinated with Gifford representatives, affected property owners, and various interested parties. During that time, staff also conducted two public workshops (affected property owners invited), drafted a number of changes to proposed regulations, coordinated with the County Attorney's Office which held mediation meetings with affected property owners and Gifford representatives, and obtained input during recent Gifford Neighborhood Plan community meetings. During the long coordination and planning process described above, no development project applications for controversial uses (e.g. concrete plant, mulch operation, demolition debris facility) were formally filed. In addition, during the process, the Attorney's Office mediation efforts resulted in some consensus between property owners and Gifford representatives on a number of issues and narrowed down the primary issue where no consensus was reached. That issue is whether or not to allow three industrial uses in West Gifford: concrete plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities. Although no consensus was reached on that issue, mediation discussions indicated that some degree of consensus may be possible if the three controversial uses are allowed only as conditional uses with notice and public hearings (see last page of attachment #2). FACommunity Development\Gifford (WG1C)\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 1 62 Staff has concluded that, in order to move the West Gifford initiative forward, the county should consider specially regulating those three uses within West Gifford rather than simply prohibiting them as originally proposed. Staff has also concluded that adding uses, eliminating uses, and specially regulating uses within West Gifford can be accomplished by a regulation overlay approach, rather than by a rezoning approach. Based on meetings with property owners and Gifford representatives, staff believes that the WGIC regulation overlay approach will be more acceptable to affected property owners while still providing the same protections for Gifford residents that would be provided by a WGIC rezoning approach. Consequently, staff has drafted an updated set of overlay regulations for the West Gifford properties zoned IG (see attachment #5). Because of the significant amount of time that has passed since the Board's 2010 rezoning authorization, because the County should consider specially regulating rather than prohibiting certain uses currently allowed, and because staff now believes that an overlay regulation approach rather than a rezoning approach is more appropriate, staff requests that the Board consider the attached updated set of draft overlay regulations for the 163 acres of West Gifford properties zoned IG and authorize staff to initiate the formal process for adopting the draft regulations. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The area south of 47th Street and north of 41St Street lying between 43rd Avenue and 58th Avenue, referred to as West Gifford, contains a significant amount of property zoned General Industrial (IG), as well as adjacent property zoned IL (Light Industrial) and CH (Heavy Commercial) and nearby properties zoned residential (see attachment #1). West Gifford is centrally located within the county's urban area and is strategically located for a variety of industrial and commercial uses that would benefit from West Gifford's convenient access to both the north and south areas of the county. The IG zoned portion of West Gifford contains 163 acres of which 70 acres are vacant while the remaining acreage is developed or partially developed with industrial and storage uses (50 acres), salvage/junk yards (30 acres), and grand fathered -in residences including mobile homes (13 acres). IG zoned properties in West Gifford have been industrially zoned for decades. Over the years, residential uses slowly developed on properties near the IG zoned area, while industrial uses slowly developed on the lands zoned industrial. The relatively close proximity of a number of residents to IG zoned properties is unique to West Gifford. In fact, in West Gifford, there are a number of grandfathered -in residences located within the IG zoned area. Currently, there are no concrete batch plants or demolition debris sites in West Gifford, and there is one mulch operation. + History of Recent Industrial Land Use Conflicts On June 29, 2007, staff conditionally approved a site plan for a concrete batch plant in West Gifford for Prestige Concrete. As proposed, the project involved construction of a ready mix concrete batch plant on the rear (south) 6 acres of a 9 acre property located at 5045 45th Street. Zoned IG, the Prestige site is located in the middle of the 163 acre area IG zoned area. In the IG zoning district, a concrete batch plant, like the Prestige plant, is a permitted use and requires only site plan approval, with no special notice or public hearing. As approved with conditions, the 2007 site plan project met all county development regulations, including IG zoning district, landscaping, buffering, stormwater management, traffic, and environmental requirements. That site plan approval expired on June 29, 2010. The Prestige project is currently inactive although in recent years Prestige has made some FACommunity Development\Gifford (WGIC)\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 2 63 properly permitted site preparations, has expressed an interest in developing a concrete batch plant in the future, and has actively participated in West Gifford initiative meetings. During the summer of 2009, staff received several inquiries from residents of the Gifford community regarding the Prestige site plan approval. According to those residents, Gifford community members had not been aware of the concrete plant site plan and had concerns about the proposed plant. On August 19, 2009, community development staff met with Gifford Progressive Civic League representatives, NAACP representatives, and Commissioner Joseph Flescher. At that meeting, staff explained the process involved with review and approval of the Prestige site plan. Staff also noted that, because the Prestige property was zoned IG and because a concrete plant is a permitted use in the IG district, the county was required to approve the concrete plant site plan once the applicant demonstrated that his site plan application complied with all applicable county codes. Subsequent to the August 19, 2009 meeting, Joe Idlette, III, president of the Progressive Civic League of Gifford, sent a letter to Community Development Director Robert Keating, requesting that the county rezone all IG property in Gifford to IL (Light Industrial). According to that letter, the Progressive Civic League was concerned that concrete plants and other similar IG uses would have health, pollution, and safety impacts on the community. On September 25, 2009, Mr. Keating responded to Mr. Idlette's letter, indicating that the rezoning request would be presented to the Board for its consideration. On November 10, 2009, the Board considered a report and presentation from Mr. Keating as well as comments from concerned area residents. After discussion, the Board directed staff to perform research, work with Gifford community leaders and the community in general regarding county regulation changes that address community concerns, and report back to the Board with recommendations. Consistent with the Board's direction, staff met with the "Gifford Executive Group" six times between December 2009 and August 2010. The group originally consisted of Commissioner Flescher, Michael Zito, Joe Idlette III, Tony Brown, Freddy Woolfork, Donald Hart, and Helene Caseltine. After initial meetings, Mary McKinney, Vernon Reason, and Jeff Thompson (Vero Millworks) also participated in Executive Group meetings. Over the course of the meetings, the group reviewed staff research and analysis on land use, zoning, and various development regulation alternatives to address community concerns. Based on that information and analysis, staff, in coordination with the Executive Group, then drafted a set of development regulation changes for the 163 acre portion of West Gifford currently zoned IG. Throughout that process, Gifford residents provided input during community -wide meetings that were held in Gifford in February and July 2010 to obtain community input. Staff and the Executive Group then reported back to the Board with analysis and recommendations that addressed community land use and zoning concerns about the West Gifford area. The Board considered those recommendations and authorized initiation of the WGIC district rezoning process at its September 14, 2010 meeting. \w On October 21, 2010, staff notified affected property owners and interested parties and conducted a public workshop to present the draft WGIC district regulations and obtain input, especially from affected property owners. At the workshop, property owners strongly objected to eliminating any FACommunity Development\Gifford (WGIC)\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 3 64 uses currently allowed, but also indicated that they could support regulations that require businesses to run cleanly and that require reasonable aesthetic upgrades along 451h Street. After the 10/12/2010 workshop, the Gifford Executive Group met on several occasions to discuss proposed regulations and various regulation alternatives, including meetings held in October 2010, February 2011, April 2011, and June 2011. The group's February 2011 meeting included a tour of Prestige's Eau Gallie concrete batch plant with Prestige employees. The plant, over 20 years old, abuts a single-family neighborhood, and had been recently upgraded by Prestige to resolve some issues with DEP. During the tour, the group observed operations that generated significant noise, observed on-site accumulations of dust that had been wetted -down to control air -borne emissions, and found evidence of adverse impacts on adjacent homes from fugitive dust emissions. During the summer and fall of 2011, staff coordinated with Marcie Nolan, an attorney and planner from the Becker & Poliakoff firm that was retained by the Progressive Civic League of Gifford. Ms. Nolan provided input regarding various West Gifford regulation draft proposals. On January 27, 2012, after notifying affected property owners and interested parties, staff conducted a second public workshop. At that workshop, staff presented a revised draft of the WGIC district regulations and proposed rezoning. The workshop meeting was not productive. In the words of Deputy County Attorney Bill DeBraal, "...the meeting's decorum disintegrated as the business owners and community leaders exchanged heated barbs". At that point in the meeting, the Deputy County Attorney volunteered to meet separately with business/property owners and community representatives to try to reach consensus. The workshop was adjourned with the expectation that mediation meetings would be held. From February 2012 through August 2013, the Deputy County Attorney held separate meetings with business/property owners and community representatives. Those mediation efforts are covered extensively in the attached memo from the Deputy County Attorney (see attachment #3). During the mediation meetings, general consensus on a number of issues was reached and some potential was found for addressing concrete batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris sites through special regulations. From July 2013 to the present, staff obtained additional input through Gifford Neighborhood Plan community meetings and drafted revised regulations based on the Deputy County Attorney's memo. ANALYSIS * Zoning District and Overlay Regulation Approaches The original WGIC initiative authorized by the Board in 2010 proposed to establish a new zoning district, the WGIC district, and then rezone the 163 acres of IG zoned property in West Gifford to the new WGIC zoning district. In 2010, staff recommended and the Board chose to pursue the WGIC district approach over other approaches. Other approaches considered and rejected included modifying IG district regulations (county -wide) to specifically regulate concrete batch plants and other similar uses, and down -zoning the 163 acres of IG property to IL (Light Industrial). The WGIC district approach was chosen primarily because it allowed creation of regulations that specifically address the unique land use conflicts in West Gifford and provided a means of adding various uses not currently allowed on IG zoned properties as a trade-off for eliminating certain uses and adding special regulations for other uses. FACommunity Development\Gifford (WGIQ\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doe 4 65 As a result of mediation meetings held after the January 27, 2012 workshop, staff learned that owners of affected properties in West Gifford preferred keeping the current IG zoning since most allowed uses proposed for inclusion in the WGIC district were industrial uses and because the owners wanted their properties to be known as general industrial properties. An alternative to the WGIC district/rezoning approach is to create a set of special regulations that overlay the IG zoning district in West Gifford. A similar approach is currently used for the county's aesthetic corridors that overlay properties fronting certain major streets. In the case of the first such aesthetic corridor, the Wabasso Corridor, special criteria and use regulations overlay variously zoned properties in the Wabasso area with regulations that prohibit or restrict certain uses normally allowed by zoning. Thus, the Wabasso, Corridor regulations contain special aesthetic requirements and use restrictions that are over and above the county's general development and zoning district regulations. Staffs 19 years of experience with the Wabasso Corridor regulations has demonstrated that overlay regulations are effective. In staff's opinion, it is appropriate for the county to change from the WGIC district/rezoning approach to the WGIC special overlay regulations approach to accommodate the desires of affected property owners while adequately addressing the industrial land use conflicts in West Gifford. • Concrete Batch Plants, Mulch Operations, and Demolition Debris Facilities Concerns about allowing a concrete batch plant in West Gifford were confirmed during the February 2011 tour of Prestige's Eau Gallie batch plant, as described in the description and conditions section of this report. As evidenced on that tour, concrete batch plants produce noise, run-off, and fugitive dust impacts that need to be adequately addressed. Mulch operations are a concern in West Gifford due to fire hazards and smoke that can result if and when piles of vegetative debris combust. Years ago, when the existing mulch facility in West Gifford was under different ownership/control, a number of fires occurred that threatened the area around the mulch facility and impacted the community with smoke. With respect to demolition debris sites in West Gifford, Gifford residents expressed the same concerns that were expressed during the public hearings for the A-1 Walee/Indian River County Recyclers demolition debris site proposals in the south county. Those concerns included compatibility, especially due to environmental concerns such as run-off and air - born emissions. For the reasons cited above, concrete batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities are uses that had a special focus in mediation discussions and in staff's draft regulations. West Gifford special regulations can treat development of concrete batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities in a number of ways, as follows: 1. Permitted Uses: allow the uses "by right" as currently allowed in the IG district and rely on general development regulations and West Gifford buffer regulations to address compatibility. 2. Administrative Permit Uses: allow the uses as conditional uses, subject to specific criteria and Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC) review, with a limited ability for the county to impose approval conditions. 3. Special Exception Uses: allow the uses as special exception uses, subject to specific criteria, subject to public notice and public hearings before the PZC and BCC, and subject to the applicant demonstrating compatibility with surrounding land uses and no adverse impacts on health, safety, and welfare, with the ability of the county to impose approval conditions to FACommunity Development\Gifford (WGIC)\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 5 66 ensure compatibility and no adverse impacts. 4. Prohibited Uses: eliminate the uses within the WGIC overlay area. In staff's opinion, treating the 3 uses as permitted uses does not adequately address the West Gifford land use conflicts previously described and does not give sufficient guidance to potential applicants as to how to address community concerns. Treating the 3 uses as administrative permit uses does provide for specific criteria and PZC review but does not provide a public hearing process and does not require the applicant to demonstrate compatibility and no adverse impacts. Treating the 3 uses as special exception uses provides for specific criteria, requires applicants to demonstrate compatibility and no adverse impacts, and requires notice and public hearings before the PZC and BCC. Given the potential adverse impacts of the 3 uses in West Gifford, it is appropriate to require applications for those uses to go through the public hearing process and for the Board to make the county's final decision on applications for those uses. The fourth option presented above is to prohibit the 3 uses in the 163 acres of West Gifford's IG zoned properties. That option addresses community concerns but provides no opportunity under county regulations for an affected property owner/applicant to develop an appropriately sized and situated parcel, with a properly designed project that is shown to be compatible with no adverse impacts. For that reason, staff does not support prohibiting the 3 uses in West Gifford. • Proposed WGIC Overlay Regulations In its draft form, the proposed WGIC overlay regulations would add, delete, and specially regulate a number of uses compared to the uses allowed in the IG district (see attachment #4). Specifically, the draft overlay regulations propose to eliminate from West Gifford 15 uses such as farm labor services, adult entertainment, airports/airstrips, heliports/helipads, landfills, and certain types of manufacturing such as tobacco, paper, petroleum, tires, steel, cement, and tanning/finishing hides. None of the 15 uses proposed for elimination currently exist within the 163 acre WGIC overlay area. Although mediation meetings revealed that affected owners did not favor elimination of any uses currently allowed, there was a general consensus that eliminating the 15 uses as proposed could be acceptable (see page 2 of attachment #2). The draft overlay regulations also propose adding 39 types of business use categories not currently allowed in the IG district that would be compatible with WGIC industrial uses. Business uses proposed to be added include: auto repair and sales, carpet and dry cleaning, boat sales, equipment rental, electric and jewelry repair, enclosed salvage facilities, indoor auction facilities, paint and hardware stores, and computer and data processing facilities. Adding those uses to the WGIC regulations was acceptable to community leaders and affected property owners, although most owners indicated during mediation discussions that many of the proposed new uses would be more economically feasible in high traffic areas such as US 1 as compared to a lower traffic area such as West Gifford. The draft overlay regulations treat concrete batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities as special exception uses subject to criteria specific to West Gifford. The criteria currently proposed for those 3 uses provide special separation distances between dust -producing activities and residential areas, as well as requirements and best management practices (bmps) for project FACommunity Development\Gifford (WGIC)\2014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 6 67 improvements and operating conditions that address run-off, air emissions, noise impacts, and other potential hazards previously described in this report. In addition, the draft overlay regulations will: • Allow single-family subdivisions along the west edge of the overlay area where potential subdivision sites abut existing residential property. For a new subdivision, the proposed regulations require installation of a Type "A" buffer and administrative permit use approval from the Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC). • Allow multi -family residential units, accessory to industrial and business facilities, similar to existing allowances for accessory units in various commercial districts. The allowances for accessory multi -family, and the allowance for single-family residential on the western edge of the overlay area, were initiated by the Gifford Executive Group and were not objected to by affected property owners. Besides changes to allowed uses and special criteria for specific uses, the proposed overlay regulations provide significant buffering requirements where new non-residential development abuts residential zoning or residential uses and where new loading docks are proposed adjacent to residential properties. The proposed buffering requirements are similar to IG district buffer requirements with some adjustments for West Gifford conditions. In addition, the draft overlay regulations require an upgrade in the appearance of existing junk yards that front 45h Street. Those junk yards were developed in the 1960s and 1970s when the only "aesthetic" requirement applied to junk yards was for an 8' tall perimeter wall or fence. As a result, most of the 45th Street junk yard frontage consists of old 8' fencing with no landscaping. Because 45th Street is Gifford's primary roadway corridor, and because the existing junk yards are grandfathered -in and not required under existing regulations to upgrade their 45'x' Street appearance unless significantly re -developed through the major site plan process, staff proposes a mandatory appearance upgrade. As proposed, owners of junk yards fronting 451' Street will be required to provide continuous vegetative screening (landscaping) in front of their fencing or build a wall with aesthetic features by June 30, 2016. One junk yard owner, Keith Taig (Mr. Scrap), has already replaced his fence with an aesthetic wall that would meet the proposed requirements and has been commended at Gifford community meetings for doing so. • Property Rights Whenever a local government eliminates or restricts uses, impacts on property rights must be considered. Property rights can be impacted by changes in allowed uses as well as regulations that limit or place conditions on allowable uses. In Florida, state statutes (the Bert Harris Act) provide that when a governmental entity "inordinately burdens an existing use of real property... the property owner of that real property is entitled to relief, which may include compensation for the actual loss to the fair market value of the real property caused by the action of government... ". The statute defines an existing use as a reasonably foreseeable, nonspeculative land use which is suitable for the subject real property. When eliminating uses or changing permitted uses to conditional uses as proposed with the WGIC FACommunity DevelopmenAGifford (WGIC)12014UPDATE\2-18-14 BCC.doc 7 68 overlay regulations, the Bert Harris Act could apply. Whether either of those actions would "inordinately burden" a property is an issue that would be decided in court. There is, however, a potentially significant financial risk for the county to proceed with a rezoning or other action that results in a loss of use. As drafted, the proposed WGIC overlay regulations address these property rights concerns. While eliminating 15 uses allowed in the IG district, the WGIC overlay regulations will allow 39 uses not currently permitted in the IG district. In addition, the proposed overlay regulations will specially regulate, rather than prohibit, 3 uses of special concern: concrete batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities. The proposed overlay regulations reflect an effort to protect and expand property rights while addressing community concerns. In staff's opinion, the proposed WGIC overlay regulations address the Gifford community's land use and zoning concerns in the West Gifford industrial area while protecting property rights and increasing the overall number of allowable uses in the West Gifford IG -zoned area. • Pending Ordinance Doctrine A number of times in years past, the Board has "invoked the pending ordinance doctrine" when it has considered a set of draft regulations and authorized staff to initiate the formal LDR amendment process. By invoking the pending ordinance doctrine, the Board can have draft regulations applied to new development applications until final regulations are formally adopted. By doing so, the county can prevent submission of a rushed development application intended to elude new regulations being considered. In staff's opinion, it is appropriate for the Board to consider invoking the pending ordinance doctrine with respect to the draft WGIC overlay regulations to prevent a rush to apply for project approval and to prevent an unnecessary rush to adopt final regulations. • Process If the Board authorizes staff to initiate the process to formally adopt WGIC overlay regulations, then staff will schedule one public hearing before the PZC and two public hearings before the Board. Two public hearings before the Board will be required since the proposed regulations will change the list of uses allowed within the overlay area. Also, prior to each public hearing, staff will mail letters to all current owners of property within the 163 acre IG -zoned area. In addition, staff will continue to disseminate information via its West Gifford property owners and Gifford interested parties e-mail lists. CONCLUSION The West Gifford (WGIC) initiative has been discussed and vetted over a period of years with a variety of interested parties, including affected property owners and Gifford community representatives and residents. In staff's opinion, mediation and consensus -building efforts have been made and a compromise is needed to move the initiative forward. It is staff's position that the draft overlay regulations represent a reasonable compromise, whereby West Gifford properties zoned IG will retain their IG zoning but be subjected to special regulations. As proposed, those regulations prohibit certain heavy industrial uses, add new commercial/industrial uses, and regulate concrete FACommunity DevelopmenAGifford (WGIC)12014UPDATEI2-1$-14 BCC.doc 8 69 batch plants, mulch operations, and demolition debris facilities as special exception uses subject to strict criteria. For those reasons, staff supports initiation of the formal process to adopt the draft overlay regulations. Staff also supports invoking the pending ordinance doctrine to prevent a rush to elude the proposed regulations and a rush to adopt the proposed regulations. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the BCC authorize staff to initiate the formal process of amending the LDRs to create the WGIC overlay regulations. Furthermore, staff recommends that the BCC invoke the pending ordinance doctrine and direct staff to apply the draft WGIC overlay regulations to development applications until final regulations are formally adopted.

REQUEST FROM STAFF AND THE GIFFORDExECUTIIB GROUP FOR A UTHORIZATION TO INITIATE AN LDR AMENDMENT TO CREATE THE WEST GIFFORD INDUSTRIAL & COMMERCE DISTRICT (WGIC) AND TO INITIATE THE REZONING OF 163 ACRES FROMIG TO WGIC Planning Director Stan Boling used a PowerPoint Presentation (on file) to present background and analysis on the request of staff and the Gifford Executive Group to create the West Gifford Industrial & Commerce District (WGIC), and to initiate the rezoning of 163 acres from IG (General Industrial) to WGIC. He recalled that in September 2009, the Progressive Civic League had requested to rezone the West Gifford area to Light Industrial (IL), and that after presenting this item to the Board in November 2009, staff had been directed to obtain input from the Gifford Community. Director Boling advised that meetings between staff, community members, and the newly created Gifford Executive Group had led to the development of the proposed initiative. He reviewed the uses which would be permitted in the proposed district, and outlined the requirements for the two grandfathered uses — mulch products and junk/salvage yards. Director Boling thereafter requested that the Board authorize staff to begin the formai process of initiating an LDR change to create the new WGIC commerce district regulations and to initiate rezoning of the 163 acres. Commissioner Flescher congratulated staff, the Gifford Executive Group, and other participating community members who worked on the WGIC District initiative. He affirmed that the new district would align with the County's standard of embracing clean, light industry that would provide employment opportunities. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Flescher, SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler, to authorize staff to: (1) initiate the formal process of amending the LDR's to create the WGIC district; and (2) initiate the process to rezone 163 acres in the West Gifford area from IG (General Industrial) to WGIC (West Gifford Industrial & 13 September 14, 2010 73 Commerce District), as recommended in the memorandum of September 2, 2010. Vice Chairman Solari and Commissioner Wheeler applauded staff and the community for their efforts towards the development of the WGIC District. Chairman O'Bryan and Vice Chairman Solari were concerned about the costs for the junk/salvage yards to add landscaping screening by 2013, as would be required under the new regulations, and Vice Chairman Solari requested that staff provide cost estimates. Staff provided further information for Chairman O'Bryan regarding the "no expansion" policy for mulch product businesses (one of the grandfathered uses). A brief discussion ensued on whether the proposed redistricting/rezoning might result in potential Bert J. Harris Private Property Rights Protection Act (Bert Harris) issues. Vice Chairman Solari wanted to emphasize at the upcoming public hearing, that creation of the WGIC District and the rezoning would increase property values throughout the area. County Attorney Alan Polackwich, Sr. affirmed that staff was monitoring potential Bert Harris issues closely, and would provide an opinion to the Board at the end of the redistricting and rezoning process. Tony Brown, Gifford Executive Group member, thanked the Commissioners, talked about the cooperative nature of staff, and remarked that the WGIC District could help enhance and beautify the Gifford community. The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and the Motion carried unanimously. The Board authorized staff to: (1) initiate the formal process of amending the LDR's to create the WGIC district; and (2) initiate the process to September 14, 2010 14 TTAE0 2 74 rezone 163 acres in the West Gifford area from IG (General Industrial) to WGIC (West Gifford Industrial & Commerce District), as recommended in the memorandum of September 2, 2010. 12.E.

DeBraal, Deputy County Attorney Kate Pingolt Cotner, Assistant County Attorney Office of INDIAN RIVER COUNTY MEMORANDUM TO: Stan Boling, Planning Director FROM: William K.D Braal Deputy CountAttorne y DATE: August 27, 2013 SUBJECT: West Gifford Industrial Commercial Zoning District ATTORNEY In 2007, Community Development Department approved a site plan application for a concrete ready mix plant to be located at 5045 45th Street, in the West Gifford area. Staff level approval was proper as the area is zoned IG, General Industrial and ready mix concrete plants are a permitted use under that zoning classification. Surrounding property owners and Gifford community leaders expressed great concern that the concrete plant, and many other traditional "heavy" industrial uses, could be approved at the staff level given the surrounding area is residentially zoned. The Board of County Commissioners directed staff to study the possibility of changing the zoning classification in the West Gifford area. The West Gifford area under discussion is located between 43rd and 58th Avenues from 41$t Street north to 49th Street. As a result of the Board's direction, staff drafted regulations for a new district that would prohibit certain heavy industrial uses and add certain commercial uses not allowed in the IG district. Staff then held a series of workshops with business owners and Gifford community leaders and citizens concerning the proposed zoning changes for the West Gifford area: The last workshop was held on the afternoon of Friday, January 27, 2012 and was attended by Gifford Community leaders, residents and business owners. Unfortunately, the meeting's decorum disintegrated as the business owners and community leaders exchanged heated barbs. At that time, I volunteered to meet with each side separately in an attempt to reach some sort of consensus to move the matter further along. Over the last 18 months, I have met with representatives from the West Gifford area concerning the proposed zoning changes for the area. Meetings were held with business owners in West Gifford to try and form a consensus of some of the zoning changes that all business owners could support. Meetings were also held with West Gifford community leaders and neighborhood residents to try to fashion a zoning district 76 West Gifford Zoning August 27, 2013 Page 12 that would be more complimentary to the residential neighborhood dotted throughout the West Gifford area. Staff also met with representatives from Prestige Concrete/St. Mary's Cement to try to work out a series of site specific protections that would allow for the approval and construction of a concrete ready mix plant in the West Gifford area. The purpose of this memorandum is to update you as to the current status of the zoning district, advise you of the steps that are needed to go forward with the zoning district, and to advise you as to the potential risks of rezoning. In early 2012, 1 met with the business owners to discuss the proposed zoning changes. While the business owners were sympathetic to the concerns of the West Gifford residents, they were quick to point out the following factors: • Their businesses are properly located in an industrially zoned district. • They had expended time, money and sweat into building successful businesses • Their businesses provide a direct benefit to the community through taxes, wages and employment. • All of the West Gifford businesses were local in nature and smaller in size which is the type of business hardest hit by additional government regulation It was the consensus of the business owners that the proposed zoning changes were unsolicited and thrust upon them. All expressed concern that proposed changes may affect their livelihood in a slow moving economy. During the three meetings spanning the 18 months, the business owners reluctantly agreed to the elimination of some of the more heavy industrial uses proposed by staff. While there was not unanimous agreement for some of the eliminated uses, the consensus of the group was that certain uses could be eliminated from the district. They include: • adult entertainment • textile mills (assembly of textiles would be acceptable) • paper and petroleum manufacturing • tire manufacturing • tanning of hides • sanitary services such as sewer plants or landfills • non metallic plants such as gypsum manufacturing • metal manufacturing and airports. Two other uses: farm labor services and tobacco product manufacturing would remain, however no detailed definitions could be found for those uses. ATTACHMENT 3 77 West Gifford Zoning August 27, 2013 Page 13 The business owners were hesitant to eliminate cement/concrete plants, demolition debris, and mulch products and services from the zoning district. As will be discussed later, one of the West Gifford business owners had already received County approval to construct a concrete ready mix plant within the West Gifford area. Due to the down turn in the economy, that plant has not been constructed and the site plan approval has expired. Other business owners were reluctant to eliminate mulch products and services as there is an existing operation of that kind in the area. Demolition debris was the final use that the business owners did not wish to see eliminated from the West Gifford area. They contended that recycling demolition debris was a fairly new technology, and with further development, it may be an acceptable use within the area. Proposed new uses. Most of the business owners were not enthusiastic about the proposed new commercial uses that would attach to their property. Most of the attendees had already established business that would not be compatible with new commercial uses added. They also pointed to the fact that most of the traffic driving past their business was local in nature and in volumes far less than would be seen on State Road 60 or U.S. 1, the more traditional commercial thoroughfares. It was the consensus of the group that the additional uses would be accepted but would not make much of an immediate benefit to their property; nor would the changes be a factor that would greatly increase the value of their property. Prestige Concrete. In 2007 Prestige Concrete purchased a nine acre parcel of property located at 5045 45th Street in Vero Beach. They applied for and received site plan approval for construction of ready mix concrete plant at this site. The issuance of site plan approval for the proposed facility was proper, as ready mix concrete is a permitted use in the current IG zoning district. Prestige did not go forward with construction of the plant due to market conditions, and in part due to a site plan requirement necessitating the construction of a turn lane on the south side of 45th Street. Construction of the turn lane would require installing a culvert in the canal on 45th Street, which Prestige estimated to cost upwards of $400,000.00. Prestige has worked closely with staff in the design of their facility. Although not required by code, Prestige has proposed additional coverings for areas where product would be exposed, additional wash stations to reduce dust and centralizing the location of the equipment so as to further reduce noise impact to the surrounding neighborhoods. Prestige was also open to the idea of having all traffic enter and exit onto 415t Street, thus avoiding residential neighborhoods along 45th Street and the expense of a 45th Street turn lane. Additional easements from their neighboring property owners to the south would be required before this could be achieved. At this time, Prestige has not submitted a new site plan application but instead is awaiting the outcome of the proposed zoning changes. Should the use of the ready mix plant be eliminated from the list of allowable zoning uses in the West Gifford area, Prestige may exercise its right to file a Bert Harris Act Claim against the County citing ATTACHMEVT West Gifford Zoning August 27, 2013 Wage 14 the decrease in property value due to the new zoning restrictions applied to their site. There would be a one year time period: from implementation of the new code standards in which Prestige may file its claim. At that time the County could choose to either negotiate a settlement with Prestige or proceed to refute the claim through the use of expert testimony and deteriorating market conditions. The proposed zoning changes also carry updated landscaping requirements. If approved, current business owners would have 18 months in which to submit a new landscape plan for approval by the County. The business owners would then have an additional period of two to three years in which to implement the plan. The existence of Murphy Act Reservations and limited parking provide challenges to providing the landscaping. Additionally, from a legal perspective, the County has never required existing property owners to upgrade landscaping without an accompanying change of use, change of ownership or substantial expansion or alteration of the existing building. The majority of the business owners expressed concern that their industrial usage was not compatible with landscaping and that requiring the installation and maintenance of additional trees and shrubs would be one more burden placed on small businesses. Perspective of the West Gifford Residents and Homeowners. The West Gifford community leaders and homeowners are represented by Marcie Nolan of the firm of Becker & Poliakoff. Later in the proceedings, John R. Maher, a retired judge from New Hampshire also offered his assistance in coordination with Ms. Nolan. After the approval of the Prestige ready mix plant in 2007, the leaders and homeowners in the West Gifford community expressed great concern at the lack of public participation available to them with the siting of a concrete ready mix plant. Specifically, that there was no notice required under our code for a variety of allowable uses such as tanning plants, paper manufacturing or metal manufacturing. The homeowners in West Gifford would support elimination of the following general industrial uses in the West Gifford area: • Farm labor services • adult entertainment • tobacco product manufacturing • textile mills • paper, petroleum and tire manufacturing (raw materials) • tanning finishing • cement/concrete plants • mineral plants such as gypsum or lime • metal manufacturing • demolition debris • mulch products and services • airports, air services, heliports, and helipads ATTACHMENT 3- 79 West Gifford Zoning August 27, 2013 Page (5 ® sanitary services such as landfills. it should be pointed out that there is an existing mulching business within the West Gifford area. If the mulching product and services use would be eliminated as a permitted use, then the current mulching operation would be able to continue as a legal non -conforming use. The mulch business would be able to remain in place but could not be increased in size. If the use were to cease for one calendar year, the property would not be able to be used as a mulch facility. The leaders and homeowners also look at the increased commercial uses as being a benefit to their neighborhoods by supplying needed services not provided by industrially zoned property. There is currently $200,000.00 for landscaping and streetscape improvements along 45th Street from 43`d Avenue to US 1 in the County budget for FY 2013-14. The leaders and homeowners feel that the combination of landscaping upgrades by the County and the business owners will provide needed improvements for the appearance of the community. Overall, the leaders and homeowners are satisfied that the heaviest industrial uses were being eliminated. They were also receptive to the disappearance of the administrative use permit where the industrial uses would be approved without notice to surrounding neighborhoods. During the discussion of the new zoning district, the idea of a zoning overlay was suggested. Under this scenario, the new commercial uses would be laid over and be in addition to the existing industrial uses in the area. The overlay would provide the expanded commercial uses without complete elimination of the industrial zoning category. The homeowners preferred the elimination of the industrial use categories rather than an overlay approach to new zoning categories. In conclusion, it is the consensus of both sides to eliminate the following traditionally heavy industrial uses: adult entertainment textile mills (assembly of textiles would be acceptable) paper and petroleum manufacturing tire manufacturing • tanning of hides sanitary services such as sewer plants or landfills non metallic plants such as gypsum manufacturing metal manufacturing and airports ATTACHMENT West Gifford Zoning August 27, 2013 Page 16 There was consensus that the following uses could be added to the West Gifford area: Carpet cleaning Indoor Boat/Auto/RV service Dry cleaning Single/Multi family residential housing Car Washes Restaurants (with drive through ok) Auto and home supply store Hardware/building/paint stores Boat/RV/Auto Sales Gas station/convenience store A more complete list of uses is attached to this memo. There was no consensus reached on the following uses: • mulch products and services • demolition debris • cement/concrete plants The leaders and homeowners discussed the idea of a conditional use permit for these three uses as notice and public hearing would be afforded to them. As you know, the Board has directed staff to update the Gifford Neighborhood Plan and Community Development- staff is currently in the process of conducting meetings with the various interested parties. It may be beneficial for the WGIC parties to participate in the on going process of updating the Gifford Neighborhood Plan and obtain community feedback through that process prior to bringing WGIC back before the Board of County Commissioners.

Baird; County Administrator FROM: Stan Boling,AICP Community Development Director DATE: February 10, 2014 SUBJECT: Review of INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC's Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Annual Report It is requested that the following information be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 18, 2014. BACKGROUND On December 20, 2011, the Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing to consider a request from INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC for an economic development ad valorem tax exemption (tax abatement). At that hearing, the Board considered INEOS's application together with staff's analysis and input from the Property Appraiser's Office, Chamber of Commerce, and Economic Development Council. Based on the evidence presented, the Board found that INEOS's proposed bioenergy facility project qualified for tax abatement as a new business, found that INEOS's application scored in the highest abatement award category under adopted scoring guideline, granted a 10 year tax abatement beginning in 2013, adopted a tax exemption ordinance for the INEOS project, and approved a tax exemption agreement with INEOS (see attachments 1, 2, and 3). The exemption applies to approximately 30% - 40% of INEOS's total ad valorem tax bill and decreases during the 10 year abatement period. Since the December 20, 2011 hearing, INEOS completed project construction, and hired facility personnel. In January 2013, INEOS filed its first annual report with the County as required by the tax exemption agreement. That report indicated job and wage levels consistent with INEOS' tax abatement application and information from the Florida Department of Revenue. Based on that information, on February 19, 2013 the Board found that INEOS was in compliance with its ad valorum tax exemption requirements. INEOS then applied to the Property Appraiser's Office for the exemption and the exemption was granted for "property tax year" 2013. In January, 2014 INEOS filed its required annual report. Under requirements of the tax exemption agreement and the County's Chapter 1100 tax exemption regulations (see attachment #4), INEOS is required to provide a number of new jabs at a high average wage level, file an annual report on or before January 15th of each year beginning in 2013, abide by representations made to the Board, and comply with tax exemption requirements. The annual report filing provides the County with a convenient opportunity to verify compliance with tax exemption requirements. If at any time the Board determines that INEOS is not in compliance, the Board may revoke or revise the tax exemption. FACommnnity Development\Users\CDADMIN\AGENDA\2014\INEOSAdValreport 021814.docx 100 Staff has reviewed INEOS's annual report filed January 2014 and verified INEOS's compliance with tax exemption requirements, including representations made in its tax abatement application. At this time, staff is bringing the January 2014 annual report and its analysis to the Board for consideration, and requests that the Board find INEOS currently in compliance with its tax exemption requirements. ANALYSIS Over the last 4 years, INEOS obtained approval of economic development incentives, developed a bioenergy production facility at the southwest corner of Oslo Road/74h Avenue (former Ocean Spray site), and hired facility personnel as follows: • Spring/summer 2010: coordinated with staff on local jobs grant and tax abatement incentives; obtained BCC approval of local jobs grant. • September 2010: obtained project site plan approval. • March -November 2011: submitted tax abatement application and related information. • December 2011: obtained BCC tax abatement approval (ordinance, agreement). • March 2012: reported 41 employees • June 2012: reported 49 employees • September 2012: reported 53 employees • December 2012: reported 56 employees • January 2013: obtained C.O. (Certificate of Occupancy) for plant site work and associated permits, filed first tax abatement annual report. • March 2013: reported 59 employees • June 2013: reported 66 employees • September 2013: reported 65 employees • December 2013: reported 64 employees In its January 2014 annual report (see attachment #6) , INEOS provided all the information required by INEOS's tax abatement agreement, including information on the number of jobs, average wage, and new capital investment in the plant, if any, for the 2013 report year. The report states that, in addition to 20 contract employees, the INEOS facility currently has 62 full time employees at an annual wage of nearly $63,000 per employee (not including benefits). Staff has verified that the reported jobs and wage information provided in the January 2014 report is consistent with information reported to the Florida Department of Revenue. With respect to project capital investment the project has involved tens of millions of dollars in improvements and equipment, as anticipated. Based upon the filed annual report and verified items, staff has determined that INEOS has met applicable project -related and tax abatement -related time frames and deadlines. FACommunity Development\Users\CDADMIN\AGENDA\2014\INEOSAdValreport 021814.docx 2 101 As anticipated in the INEOS tax exemption application, the majority of the project's assessed value consists of tangible personal property in the form of plant equipment. According to the Property Appraiser's staff, INEOS's ad valorem tax bill for 2013 was $470,422.39 and the value of the ad valorem tax exemption not included on that bill (savings to INEOS) was $286,589.92. These figures are consistent with the tax abatement scenario considered by the Board at the time INEOS's tax abatement application was approved. As shown in the following table, INEOS has developed a targeted industry facility, provided or exceeded the projected number of jobs, met average wage levels, and made project capital investments consistent with representations reflected in its tax abatement application.

Therefore, staff has concluded that INEOS continues to qualify for its economic development ad valorem tax exemption as granted by the Board on December 20, 2011. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners find that INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC is currently in compliance with its ad valorem tax exemption requirements.

Through a PowerPoint presentation (copy on file), he reviewed the key points of the first annual Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Report submitted by INEOS for the year 2013, and presented staff's recommendation for the Board to find that INEOS is currently in compliance with the ad valorem tax exemption requirements. Commissioner O'Bryan voiced his support for the tax abatement program. He pointed out that over the 10 -year exemption period, INEOS would be remitting at least twice as much in property tax assessments than would have been abated in that same time period. ON MOTION by Commissioner O'Bryan, SECONDED by Vice Chairman Davis, the Board unanimously found that INEOS New Planet BioEnergy LLC, is currently in compliance with its ad valorem tax exemption requirements, as recommended in the memorandum of February 7, 2013. 12.B.

Utilizing a unique combination of gasification and fermentation processes, the facility is demonstrating key equipment at full commercial scale using vegetative and yard waste as feedstock. The site is steadily moving towards stable operations in 2014, focusing on improving performance metrics throughout the year. Current Total Number of Facility Employees 62 full time employees and 20 Contract employees as of December 31, 2013 Current Total and Average Wages of the Employees Total current annualized wages (excluding fringe benefits) are approximately $3.9 million, averaging nearly $63 thousand per employee. 1 ATTACHMENT 6 115 Description of any Improvements Made to the Facility during the Previous Year The estimated valuation of personal property investment during 2013 was approximately $4 million. Post project reviews will be performed to ensure correct classifications for county tax reporting in April, 2014. Local Impact This project has had significant positive impact to the local community. Existing area businesses that provide professional services and products have benefited from the project during the main construction (i.e., 2011-2012) and are continuing as the plant reaches full operations going forward. To date, building this facility has meant more than $30 million of direct investment into Florida's economy and more than $2 million of spending on goods and services on an annual basis. The biomass gasification process produces renewable power from a steam turbine, which runs the plant, and at full capacity, deliver electricity to over 1,400 homes in the local community. The facility has been producing renewable power since September, 2012. :,+pyr •ry USATAVLOR EVANS Submitted by: :►.

Brown Director, Management & Budget Background On February 11, 2014, the Board of County Commissioners directed staff to provide an update on the Fire Rescue fleet along with a five-year plan to catch up on the scheduled replacement of vehicles for the District. Please find the requested information included herein. As discussed at the meeting, staff has delayed the replacement of vehicles in the fleet over the last few years in.order to avoid an increase in the millage rate in light of a reduction of 31% in the taxroll for the Emergency Services District. Staff made an administrative decision to maintain staffing levels necessary to continue providing a high level of service to the public as opposed to maintaining a regular equipment replacement schedule during the economic downturn. In accordance with Board direction, staff has performed an analysis of the front line ambulances, engines and ladder/quint vehicles and has prepared a five-year plan to catch up on the delayed replacement schedule. Please note the District has several other pieces of rolling stock that are essential in providing services, such as brush trucks, special ops, and staff vehicles. These vehicles are not specifically included in the analysis, however, the District will need to replace several of these assets over the next five years as well. Additionally, this analysis does not include additional vehicles needed to equip any new stations opened over the next five years. These vehicles can be funded from a combination of impact fees, Optional Sales Tax, and District (ad valorem) funds. Table 1 below shows the model year and mileage of the District's ambulances. These vehicles typically have a useful life of about 6 years. However, due to the delayed replacement of these items as discussed above, currently eight (8) out of the twelve (12) front line vehicles are over six (6) years old. The average mileage on the front line vehicles is 124,138 as of January 31, 2014. The District also has four (4) spare units to provide coverage when one of the front line vehicles must be taken out of service for repairs or routine maintenance. These vehicles are all at least ten (10) years old and have an average of 152,070 miles. Table 2 shows the same information for the District's fire pumpers, Ladder 1, and Quint 9. These vehicles typically have a useful life of ten (10) to twelve (12) years. Currently, five (5) of the thirteen (13) front line vehicles are ten (10) years old or more. One of the older vehicles is Ladder 1, which is ten (10) years old at this time. The useful life on ladder trucks can normally be extended with a major overhaul. Due to the high cost of replacing this vehicle, staff recommends an overhaul during the five- year timeframe to extend its useful life. 117 Board of County Commissioners Page 2of5 February 12, 2014 Table 1 — Fire Rescue Ambulance Fleet Detail Vehicle Descri tion Fleet # Year Milea e Front Line Vehicles Med 1 709 2008 71,177 Med 2 725 2009 92,198 Med 3 702 2004 178,471 Med 4 726 2009 121,960 Med 5 724 2007 145,764 Med 6 716 2003 176,322 Med 7 708 2011 50,572 Med 8 745 2007 86,071 Med 9 723 2007 154,621 Med 10 720 2004 177,937 Med 11 721 2004 171,410'` Ops 5 718 2004 63,148* Average — Front Line Vehicles Spare/Reserve Vehicles Spare 1 717 2003 125,509 149,967 Spare 2 719 2004 121,150* Spare 3 755 2002 157,445 Spare 4 757 2002 179,716 Average — Spare Vehicles 162,376 *Denotes broken/replaced odometer.

As noted before, eight (8) of the twelve (12) front line ambulances are over six (6) years old. Therefore, these vehicles will need to be replaced. One ambulance was approved for replacement last year. This unit is currently being manufactured and should be delivered in the next three (3) months. Staff proposes the replacement of the seven (7) remaining units over the next three years as shown in Table 3 below. At that time, however, the fleet will have aged further, and three additional units will be over 6 years old. If the District continues to replace 2 units per year in FY 2016/17 and 2017118, all twelve (12) of the front line ambulances will have been replaced during the next five years, and none will exceed 6 years of age. Five (5) out of the thirteen (13) front line engines, quint, and ladder truck are ten (10) years old or older. One (1) replacement engine was budgeted during the current year. This engine is being manufactured and should be delivered this fiscal year. Staff recommends the replacement of one engine per year over the five-year period. In one of these years, the District will need to replace the quint located at Station 9. This unit is a higher cost item than the standard engine. For the purposes of this analysis, the quint is scheduled for replacement in fiscal year 2016/17. At that point, this vehicle will be thirteen (13) years old. It is important to note that this is a projection only. Some items may need replacement at an earlier date due to unforeseen mechanical issues. Likewise, some units may continue to perform well and have expected replacement dates delayed somewhat. At the end of the five-year plan, all front line vehicles over thirteen (13) years old at that time will have been replaced, with the exception of Ladder 1, which will have received a significant refurbishment as discussed earlier.

Availability of funding each fiscal year will need to be evaluated as we move forward. The projected schedule represents an acceleration over the funding levels included in the current Capital Improvements Plan (approved by the BCC November 19, 2013). Staff recommends the use of Optional Sales Tax funds for the three (3) additional ambulances during the current fiscal year. It should be noted that these vehicles will probably be delivered after the end of the current fiscal year. The funding sources and final amounts for next fiscal year (2014/15) will be included in the proposed budget. Furthermore, staff will include an updated funding plan for the remaining three years of the plan in the next Capital Improvements Plan update during the normal process this fall. It should be restated that the projected catch-up plan is only a projection and the actual replacement schedule will vary from this initial proposal. Availability of funding will be limited, and adjustments to the projected plan may be necessary. Additionally, this schedule does not include funding for the other rolling stock (e.g. brush trucks, special ops, staff vehicles), or additional vehicles needed to equip any new service locations that may be added over the next five years. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the Board of Commissioners provide conceptual approval of the projected five- year plan for the replacement of front line Fire Rescue vehicles. Additionally, staff recommends that the Board approve a budget amendment in the amount of $700,000 from Optional Sales Tax reserves for the purchase of three (3) replacement ambulances and additional capital necessary to provide Fire Rescue Services for the current fiscal year.

Baird, County Administrator From: Vincent Burke, P.E., Director of Utility Services 0 Prepared By: Arjuna Weragoda, P.E., Capital Projects Manager Ato Subject: Sewer Feasibility Study for the Summerplace Area —Results UCP 4101 DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS: On August 20th, 2013, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved Work Order No. 4 with Schulke, Bittle and Stoddard, L.L.C., to provide professional services to investigate the feasibility of installing centralized sewer services. The analysis evaluated three primary alternatives. Indian River Board of County Commissioners has made cleaning the Lagoon a focal point in their agenda. With regards to helping the Lagoon the County passed a strict landscape and fertilizer ordinance October 1St, 2013. The subject area primarily consists of residential properties and was selected due to its proximity to the Lagoon. EDUCATION/RESEARCH: Numerous symposiums on the health of the Lagoon have addressed potential impacts from existing septic systems. Primarily, sewer systems help to ensure that wastewater that is discharged back into the environment is sanitary, safe and free of potentially harmful pollutants. The presentation on the Nutrients and Water Quality in the Indian River Lagoon by Dr. Brian Lapointe have indicated approximately 1 -million KG of Nitrogen per year added to the Indian River Lagoon via septic systems. These studies have confirmed that high levels of Aqueous 15 Nitrogen (625 N) in groundwater and surface water are a result of human waste. A well designed and installed centralized sewer system will prevent dissolved nutrients from entering the water table and ultimately help reduce the nutrient loading into the Lagoon. ANALYSIS/ENGINEERING: Schulke, Bittle and Stoddard, L.L.C., evaluated three alternatives in the Sewer Feasibility study for the Summerplace Area. The three alternatives included the evaluation of a gravity system, vacuum system and a low pressure system. Also, included is a discussion of the Septic Tank Effluent Pumping (STEP) system. The South East Sub Area (along Barefoot Place and Shell Lane) has been analyzed as a gravity option in both the vacuum and the low pressure system analyses due to geometric lay -out and lack of utility easements. The Summerplace area evaluated in the subject study encompassed an area generally described as bounded by SR -510 to the south, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Old Orchid Sub Division to the 122 west and 96th Place to the north. Since, the study area primarily consists of residential properties the cost was evaluated on a per parcel basis. The following table summarizes the findings for each alternative: Alternative Project Cost Per Parcel Cost Gravity $ 3,049,250.56 $ 11,335.50 Vacuum (Gravity within the Southeast Sub Area) $ 3,450,587.26 $ 12,827.46 Low Pressure (Gravity within the Southeast Sub Area) $ 6,005,592.32 $ 22,325.62 The subject study recommended the vacuum alternative as the preferred method for a centralized sewer system. Although, this alternative carries a higher construction cost over the gravity alternative the vacuum system was chosen for its least impacts and disturbance to the Summerplace neighborhood during construction. There are numerous benefits to be gained by construction of a sanitary sewer collection and conveyance system in the study area. One primary benefit of the sanitary sewer collection and conveyance system construction in the study area is the reduction in TMDL loadings to the Lagoon. FINANCING/FUNDING: Currently there are no funding programs/mechanisms available to assist homeowners replacing failing systems or installing new systems, other than financing the impact fee. The impact fee can be financed for a 5 -year period. Currently projects constructed as part of an assessment can be financed for a 10 -year period. Although, the County has not financed any capital cost beyond a 10 - year period in the past, other jurisdictions in Florida have financed capital projects for a 20 -year period. Therefore, staff included a 20 -year option in the table below. Staff has also explored grant prospects as a funding mechanism to offset some of the project cost. One such grant the staff is evaluating is the Cooperative Funding for FY 2014-2015 administered by St. Johns River Water Management District. Obtaining grant funds to help reduce the large capital costs will be critical to ensure project success.

Summerplace Area\Agenda - Summer Place Sewer Feasibility Results.doc 124 V. Recommendations: Summary: Construction costs are one of many parameters that are considered when evaluating and recommending a sewer system to serve the Summerplace service area. Favorable consideration has been given to the system that will provide environmental benefits to the lagoon, provide reliable continuous operation (i.e. during prolonged storm induced power outages), minimize impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods, and minimize maintenance requirements to the utility. Construction Costs: In order to provide a sewer system that meets the goals of this project - to eliminate the detrimental impacts to the lagoon caused by septic systems, and to reduce the risk of any system failures that would also cause immeasurable harm to the environment - costs for the three respective systems included design specifications that would meet these goals. This meant that systems would not be piecemealed but would be constructed in a single phase as a complete functional system - connecting every home within the service area. In addition, systems would need to be monitored and / or alarmed, and systems would require back up / emergency power supply. Providing these necessary features has increased the cost for all three systems. The system costs, in order of least costly to most costly, are as follows: -1. Gravity sewer system: $ 3,049,250.56 -2. Hybrid Vacuum/Gravity System: $3,450,587.26 -3. Hybrid Low Pressure/Gravity System: $6,005,592.32 Environmental benefits: it is clear that both the gravity and vacuum systems will effectively eliminate almost any possible environmental damage that is caused by existing septic systems and has the least risk associated with potential accidents / failures of the implementation of each respective system. In contrast, the low pressure system is not as simple or as reliable as these systems — it has many characteristics that contribute to its unreliability and vulnerability for failure, including: numerous electrical and mechanical system parts and components, most of which are decentralized; increased vulnerability to environment (salt air, flooding); limited monitoring capabilities; limited storage capacity. Impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods: The gravity system will have the greatest impact and disturbance on the neighborhood. Short term impacts include: road closures and landscape damage caused by sewer main installation; continuous noise, potential minor flooding and irrigation well failures from de -watering operations; excessive dust, vibration and noise due to road reconstruction. Long term impacts could include translated vibratory compaction damage to structures, salt water intrusion in the shallow aquifer; and loss of specimen canopy trees. Vacuum and low pressure systems, like any construction within an established community, will cause disturbances to the neighborhoods. However, paved streets and improved driveways are not anticipated to be damaged and in need of reconstruction, and there will be little need for de -watering operations. Therefore, the construction is anticipated to create much less disturbance to the neighborhood, and will be of a shorter duration, with less intense noise and dust, and little if any vibration. Page 21 of 25 125 Maintenance requirements to the utility: It is clear that the gravity system has the least maintenance and long term operation requirements, and will be the most cost effective to operate. This is the standard system used in the majority of development projects in IRC, and IRCDUS is adept at'and experienced in the maintenance and long term operation of these systems. The vacuum system requires similar, but a little more maintenance and will cost a little more to operate due to maintenance time (man-hours) and electrical costs (for pump station). Major components that require additional efforts are the central vacuum pump station, which has an additional two vacuum pumps, and the valve pits at each home site, which require inspections and adjustments on occasion. IRC personal interviewed for this project, which operates and maintains the vacuum system in the Rockridge community, has indicated that the system in Rockridge has run very efficiently and without problems for five years. (Note: This system was a replacement for an inefficient and unreliable low pressure system). In contrast, the low pressure systems require a significant amount of maintenance — and it is estimated that 9 to 12 service calls would be made per month. Conclusion: The low pressure system does not provide the reliability needed to meet the goals of this project, and in an attempt to design this system with the goals of this project in mind, the costs for a low pressure system are uneconomical. Therefore, the low pressure system should not be considered for implementation for Summerplace. Both the gravity sewer system and the vacuum systems meet the environmental goals for this project. Construction costs are within 12% of each other, and actual bid costs may fluctuate as much as 20% from this estimate, and may fluctuate as much as 20% from high to low bidder on either system when final design and permitting is completed and it is bid publicly. Based on the construction costs alone, there is not a clear favorite. Summerplace area is a unique residential community with many narrow unpaved lanes with large oak tree and cabbage palm canopy covering the right of way, and native vegetation preserved throughout the community. Many of its homes were built in the 1960's and 1970's, and at least '/2 prior to 1983. Most homes depend on the shallow aquifer for irrigation, and have structure and foundation systems that would not meet current building codes. While unique, in some respects, the community is frail. The vacuum system is anticipated to have the least impact and disturbance to this community — and should leave it intact and without permanent damage. Its operation costs are not much higher than the gravity system costs, and IRCDUS experience with the Rockridge community's vacuum system is favorable. Therefore, after consideration of the vacuum sewer systems construction costs, environmental benefits to the lagoon, reliability, impacts and disturbance to the neighborhood, and maintenance requirements to the utility, this system is recommended for implementation to provide sewer collection for the Summerplace service area.

The Lagoon varies in width from .5 to 5 miles (0.80 to 8.0 km) and averages 4 feet (1.2 m) in depth. It serves as a spawning and nursery ground for many different species of oceanic and lagoon fish and shellfish. The lagoon also has one of the most diverse bird populations anywhere in America. Nearly 1/3 of the nation's manatee population lives here or migrates through the Lagoon seasonally. In addition, its ocean beaches provide one of the densest sea turtle nesting areas found in the Western Hemisphere. The Lagoon has faced challenges and adversity over the years, and has seen the reduction in Fishery populations, the loss of salt marshes and mangrove wetlands, and shellfish harvesting areas are shrinking every year and are being closed. While there are many contributing factors, numerous symposiums on the health of the Lagoon have identified the proliferation of residential septic systems as one of the significant contributors to the degradation of the lagoon. IRC's relatively flat topography, sandy soils and high groundwater tables compound the problems caused by septic systems — the high groundwater table and sandy soils permit effluent to flow freely and enter the groundwater without sufficient treatment, the high groundwater tables limit absorption rates, causing effluent to surface above the drainfields where it can further contaminate untreated stormwater run-off - which discharges directly into receiving waters and ultimately the Lagoon. The Indian River County Board of County Commissioners has decided that the health of the Lagoon should be one of the county's top priorities, and it has recognized that the Summerplace community of approximately 269 homes is one of several areas in the county that significantly contributes to the continued degradation of the health of the lagoon because of its close proximity to the lagoon and its reliance on private septic systems for domestic waste disposal. Of the 269 homes in the community, approximately 117 homes were built prior to the adoption of more stringent codes in 1983 related to the design, installation and operation of septic systems.(see Appendix - Section A, sheet A-2 — "Existing Septic System Location Map"). Consequently, with the support of many residents from the Summerplace area, a decision was made to evaluate the feasibility of bringing sewer services to the many residents currently on septic systems. This is expected Page 1 of 25 i Zb -3 to have a net positive benefit to the Lagoon. The study should consider and favor a system that will provide environmental benefits to the lagoon, provide reliable continuous operation (i.e. during prolonged storm induced power outages), minimize impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods, minimize maintenance requirements to the utility, and will be economical to install. The feasibility study will facilitate decision making on whether to install a new centralized sewer system in the Summerplace area, and it is expected that the study can also be utilized as a guideline to evaluate other residential areas using septic systems in lieu of centralized sewer systems. Schulke Bittle and Stoddard, L.L.0 (SBS) has prepared this Technical memorandum - a feasibility study of the three alternatives to provide a centralized sewer utility collection system to serve the Summerplace area, including a gravity collection system, vacuum system, and low pressure system. In addition, SBS has prepared a limited discussion on the merits and disadvantages of a "Septic Tank and Effluent Pump" (STEP) system. This technical memorandum presents SBS's findings and recommendations. This document may be used to form the basis for discussions to be held with the County to select the alternative to pursue for a design and construction effort. (See attached Location Map and Existing Study Area Plan — Appendix Section `A') Page 2 of 25 11. General Description —Alternative Systems: Gravity Collection System: A gravity collection system is considered the conventional traditional and preferred centralized sewer collection system. This system is in use throughout the Indian River County utility service area. It typically consists of 6" PVC sewer service connections at each lot line, which drains to a network of 8" PVC gravity sewer collection mains and manholes typically routed down the center of the streets, which drains to a central pumping "lift" station. The sewage is then pumped in the conventional way via sewage pumps into a 4" pressure sewer force main which connects and discharges into the existing public utility infrastructure. (Typically a connection to an existing nearby centralized sewer transmission force main, which will route the sewage to an existing nearby central/ regional pumping "lift" station). The sewage is then re -pumped via submersible sewage pumps into and through a series of larger diameter pressure sewer transmission mains to the wastewater treatment plant. Emergency backup power is easily provided in case of power outages (i.e. during a Hurricane) because all power needs are centralized at the pump station. A gravity system necessarily slopes and requires deep excavations for installation, and typically will have a significant impact and disturbance to the adjacent streets, infrastructure and vegetation. This system has high up -front costs due to the system requirements, including the deep installation depth of the large diameter (8") gravity sewer mains, numerous manhole structures (400 ft. max. apart), and a large and deep dual submersible sewage pumping station. Once in operation, this system requires very low maintenance, is the least expensive system to operate, and is considered very reliable. Vacuum System: The vacuum system is a relatively new sewer collection system, first being used in the United States in the late 1960's and early 1970's. IRCDUS has recently installed (2007/ 2008) an AIRVAC vacuum system in the Rockridge community of predominantly single-family residential homes (500 +/- home sites). A collection chamber is placed at each lot line to receive wastewater from the household. This chamber holds a small amount (typically up to 10 gal) of sewage. The liquid level triggers a valve to open, and the sewage is vacuumed out from the chamber and through a 3" service lateral and into a network of small diameter (4" to 8") vacuum mains typically routed along the side of the street, which discharge into a vacuum vessel and storage tank at the site of the vacuum / pump station. The sewage is then pumped in the conventional way via sewage pumps into a pressure sewer force main which connects and discharges into the public utility infrastructure. Typically a connection is made to an existing nearby centralized sewer transmission force main, which will route the sewage to an existing nearby central/ regional pumping "lift" station. The sewage is then re -pumped via submersible sewage pumps into and through a series of larger diameter pressure sewer transmission mains to the wastewater treatment plant. Emergency backup power is easily provided in case of power outages (i.e. during a Hurricane) because all power needs are centralized at the vacuum/ pump station. Page 3 of 25 la(ts- The system design attributes — small diameter vacuum mains which are flat lying, require relatively shallow installation depth and narrow trench width — and permit the construction of the mains with minimal impact and disturbance of the adjacent streets, infrastructure and vegetation. A vacuum system will have a high upfront cost due to the high cost of the collection chambers and the vacuum / pump station. To reduce upfront costs, the installation of the collection chambers can be deferred until each household is ready to connect. While not meeting the same standard as a gravity system, this system is considered reliable with low maintenance requirements and costs. Low pressure system: A grinder lift station (pumping station) is placed at each lot line to receive wastewater from the household (typically one or two homes per station). The "wet well' of the lift station holds approximately 100 to 150 gal of sewage. The liquid level triggers the pump in the wet well to operate, and the sewage is pumped out of the wet well and into an adjacent low pressure small diameter sewer force main system (typically 4" diameter) which is generally routed along the side of the street. These low pressure mains typically connect to and discharge into the public utility infrastructure: either an existing nearby gravity sewer collection system or existing nearby centralized sewer transmission force main, which will route the sewage to an existing nearby central/ regional pumping "lift" station. The sewage is then re -pumped via submersible sewage pumps into and through a series of larger diameter pressure sewer transmission mains to the wastewater treatment plant. IRCDUS currently has a low pressure system it has been operating for 15+ years in the River Lake Estates/Oak Island Subdivisions, located north of 73`d Street, east of U.S. Highway 1. Emergency backup power is not easily provided for this type of system in the case of power outages (i.e. during a Hurricane) because all power needs are de- centralized, and power is required at each individual grinder lift station. The system design attributes — small diameter low pressure sewer force mains which are flat lying, require relatively shallow installation depth and narrow trench width - permit the construction of the mains with minimal impact and disturbance of the adjacent streets, infrastructure and vegetation. Low pressure sewer systems were developed initially as a low cost alternative to a conventional gravity sewer system. The primary savings is in the low "up front" costs associated with the construction of small diameter pressure mains in lieu of the 8" gravity sewer mains, and because the grinder lift station costs can be deferred until construction of homes progresses. The low pressure system is the least reliable system, and will require substantial weekly, monthly and annual maintenance to the many individual lift stations, and will cost significantly more than a standard gravity system to operate. Page 4 of 25 111. Existing Project Service Area: The Summerplace project service area is located to the north of the intersection of SR A -1-A and CR510. The service area is approximately 85.3+/- acres and has approximately 269 home sites. The project service area is served by Indian River County potable water mains and private home site septic systems. The service area is located approximately 'h mile from the Indian River Lagoon, and less than % mile from the shoreline of Michael creek, a tributary to the Indian River Lagoon, and the service area's eastern limit is adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. There are little formal drainage conveyance systems in the area, and drainage relies heavily on sheet flow to depressional areas and percolation of run-off into the sandy soils. Topography varies from el. 14.0 ft. +- NGVD to 8.0 ft. NGVD east of SR A -1-A, and el 8.0 ft. to el. 5.0 Ft. NGVD west of SR A -1-A. Soils in this area can be described as mostly fine grain sands, and fine grain sands with shell fragments (see Appendix Section A, sheet A-3 - KSM sub -surface investigation). An existing conditions "Base Map" has been prepared (see Appendix Section A, sheet A-4) for the project service area, which depicts the lots, roads, driveways, existing water distribution systems, topography, and soil boring locations. Challenges and considerations for the construction of a sewer utility system for the Summerplace service Area include: - Geological considerations: Soils in this area can be described as mostly fine grain sands, and fine grain sands with shell fragments (see Appendix Section A, sheet A-3 — KSM Sub -surface investigation). The groundwater table is within 3.5 ft. to 4.5 ft. of most areas (within 2 ft. at wet season). The project service area's relatively flat topography, sandy soils and high groundwater tables compound the problems caused by septic systems — the high groundwater table and sandy soils permit effluent to flow freely and enter the groundwater without sufficient treatment, the high groundwater tables limit absorption rates, causing effluent to surface above the drainfields where it can further contaminate untreated stormwater run-off - which can discharge directly into receiving waters and the Lagoon. These same conditions can cause additional challenges during the construction of utility systems. Deep installations will require temporary de -watering of rapid draining soils — and as the depth of installation increases, the need and difficulty increases for dewatering the excavation for the installation of the utility mains. -Dewatering operations: 1. The majority of the project service area was developed in the 1950's to 1960's prior to the requirement for formal drainage systems. The service area has little formal drainage and conveyance systems, and finding a suitable location to discharge groundwater from de -watering operations will be difficult. 2. Most homes in the project area have shallow wells (once used for domestic water supply), but now used as an irrigation source. These wells draw from the same shallow aquifer as the well points used in the dewatering operations. There is a risk of impacting these wells during the operations — wells may temporarily run dry, and salt water intrusion is a concern in this area, which is located on the barrier island. Page 5 of 25 /aG-7 -Existing narrow tree canopied streets: Many streets in the Summerplace area are narrow with mature canopy trees and vegetation within 5 to 10 feet of the edge of the road. There is a risk of damage to vegetation during construction. Canopy trees may be damaged or lost due to the utility main installation. The depth and location of installation of the sewer utility main dictates the width of the excavation and extent of disturbance. Root and limb pruning will be necessary in advance of and in preparation for construction. -Existing potable water distribution system: A public water distribution system lies along all the streets in the service area. Installation of sewer utility mains within narrow streets with adjacent water mains poses installation challenges. There is a risk of public hazard / damage to water utility. The existing water distribution system generally lies on one side of the street, and will dictate in many circumstances where the sewer utility main can be laid. Local and state regulations typically require at least 6 to 10 ft. of horizontal separation between the water and sewer mains, with exceptions permitting closer conditions under certain special circumstances. -Pavement surface: A majority of the roads in the Summerplace area are unimproved shell roads. These roads are relatively inexpensive to replace. However, there are several roads, including Coco Plum Lane, Seagrape Drive, Frangipani Drive, Magnolia Land and Azalea Lane which are paved. The cost to reconstruct paved roads can be significant percentage of the entire project cost. The depth of the utility main and placement of the main relative to the pavement will dictate extent of the road reconstruction required. - Storm related considerations: During recent tropical storms and hurricanes (2004 / 2005), power was lost for prolonged periods lasting as many as nine days. The Utilities Department has over 250 lift stations throughout the County that rely on portable generators for backup emergency power. The number of generators and crews needed to service this number of sites is not available. As a result, sewage systems backed up through several communities creating a public and environmental health hazard over an extended number of days. The potential environmental damage associated with a power outage and sewage overflowing into the streets and draining into the Lagoon is contrary to the goal of this project. Consequently, the implementation of any of the three system alternatives must include the cost to provide reliable temporary emergency power. -Corrosive environment: The Summerplace service area is surrounded by the salt water and brackish water environments of the Atlantic Ocean and Indian River Lagoon. Corrosion of mechanical and electrical components can detrimentally affect a mechanical or electrical systems reliability and long term operation and maintenance efforts and costs. IRCDUS standards generally require the use of corrosion resistant materials. However, even stainless steel, brass and aluminum components are adversely affected by a salt environment. Therefore, consideration of the type, quantity, and location of utility system components is important when evaluating the three system alternatives. Page 6 of 25 IV. Sewage System Alternative Analysis: The implementation of three alternative replacement sewer collection systems including a gravity collection system, a vacuum system, and a low pressure system, was evaluated to determine which system is best suited to provide sewer service for the Summerplace service area. A. Replacement with Gravity collection system. Primary considerations for incorporation of this system in the Summerplace service area are: 1. Existing site conditions: topography, soils and groundwater table 2. Road damage and reconstruction requirements and costs: The depth of the utility main and placement of the main relative to the pavement dictates the extent of the road reconstruction required. 3. Discharge of groundwater from de -watering operations. 4. Impact to irrigation wells by de -watering operations. 5. Impact and disturbance to the neighborhood — road closures, dust and noise, and damage or loss of street trees and vegetation. 6. Emergency backup power provisions. 7. Equipped with remote monitoring and controls. 8. Maintenance and operation requirements. 9. Reliability of system. 10. Construction installation costs. System Description: Two separate sewer collection areas were implemented in the conceptual design of the gravity collection system as a result of existing conditions and design 1 construction restraints. The two system areas will provide sewer collection capabilities for 269 households (See Appendix Section B, sheet B-5). These systems are described as follows: 1. East of A -1-A (gravity): This area has approximately 110 residential home sites, and includes all areas east of A -1-A and an additional small area west of A -1-A (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes). These areas are designed to drain to the south to an existing lift station constructed near Wabasso Beach, on the east side of A -1-A, approx. 100 If north of CR510. This existing lift station was designed and constructed to accommodate this future service area. Gravity sewer mains and associated manholes are routed down the center of the streets, generally draining south down A- 1 -A to the existing lift station. The existing lift station does not have emergency back- up power. A diesel generator and automatic transfer switch will be installed to increase this systems reliability. SBS has inspected the site of the existing lift station and there appears to be ample space to place the diesel generator to the east of the wet well (See Appendix Section E — Existing Lift Station at Wabasso Beach). 2. West of A -1-A (gravity): This area has approximately 159 residential home sites, and includes all areas west of A -1-A, except for a small area at the southeast vicinity (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes). These areas are designed to drain to the west, following the general topography of the project service area (slopes from east to west), to a proposed public lift station at the western limits of the service area, within an Page 7 of 25 I ZLt► • 9 existing IRC Drainage and Utility easement (OR Book 1994, P. 2396) at the western extension of Coco Plum lane, west of Frangipani Drive. Gravity sewer mains and associated manholes are routed down the center of the streets, generally draining from east to west to the lift station. The lift station will transfer sewage to the County's existing force main on CR510, which transfers sewage from most of the north barrier island to a public regional lift station located on CR510 at Jungle trail, which transfers the sewage to the wastewater treatment plant. Electric service for this system is only required at the lift station. An emergency generator and automatic transfer switch will be installed at the site to maintain operation during power outages. Section B, Sheet B-1 depicts the cost breakdown used to estimate the cost of this alternative. In order to develop the cost estimate for this alternative, the following assumptions were made: • 8 -inch diameter minimum sewer size • 0.32% minimum design slope • 3.5 feet cut at uppermost manhole • Grade in the area is essentially flat • Central master lift station owned and operated by IRCDUS. Pump station will be primarily at grade and below ground, and will be fenced with landscaping provided to decrease aesthetic impacts to adjacent properties. System components include 8' dia. concrete wet well, 2-10 HP sewage pumps, control panel, emergency generator, and equipped with remote telemetry communication controls • FPL installed overhead 480 volt 3 phase service, from CR510 to the lift station (cost per FPL quote) • Annual average daily wastewater flow estimated at 250 gpd per connection • 4.0 -peak factor was used to estimate the design flow • An average cost of $2250 per household is assumed to provide on-site septic system abandonment and plumbing connection to the sewage collection system • The cost includes 10% for contingencies and administrative costs • The cost includes 7.5% for final engineering design and permitting costs Discussion of Benefits and Disadvantaaes A gravity collection system will eliminate potential for public and environmental health issues associated with the poorly operating septic systems. The back-up power available for this system is proven and provides great reliability, and ensures there will be little or no environmental impact due to power outages and flooding that may be caused by hurricane and tropical storm events. A gravity sewage collection system has comparatively low maintenance since most maintenance is limited to a single site (the lift station). System components have a life expectancy of 10 to 30+ years (10 years for misc. parts and controllers, 15 for pumps, 20 for control panels, 30 + years for lift station wet wells and gravity mains). The new gravity lines, initially installed to limit leaks, may experience increased infiltration problems over time, but the pump station can be sized to handle the expected Page 8 of 25 1a(.-10 peak conditions. The primary concern associated with the implementation of a gravity sewer system in the Summerplace service area is the anticipated impact and disturbance to the neighborhoods during the construction of the system. When compared to the construction of other sewer system alternatives, excavations are wider and deeper, dewatering is necessary, and more road damage and reconstruction will be required, and associated noise and dust will be worse. Anticipated impacts are: - Roads will need to be reconstructed, and some driveways may need to be reconstructed. Temporary road closures will be needed. - Front yard and ROW Canopy trees and landscaping in the proximity of the construction may be damaged and will need limbs and roots pruned in advance of construction, and some tree / vegetation loss is inevitable. - Translated vibration during reconstruction of the paved roads can damage adjacent structures - Existing wells may temporarily run dry due to dewatering activities, and salt water intrusion into the shallow aquifer is possible. - Construction noise and dust will be more prevalent. Noise and dust is comparatively worse due to large equipment size needed for the deep excavations, additional road construction/ paving equipment, and continuous noise due to dewatering operations (24 hour a day pumping) - Minor flooding conditions may be created during the work. The community has very little formal drainage and stormwater conveyance systems, and finding a suitable location to discharge groundwater from de -watering operations will be difficult. Minor flooding of roads, roadside swales and undeveloped lots may be necessary to facilitate the required dewatering activities. The gravity sewer system construction costs are relatively expensive due to the need for a central public lift station with back-up power (diesel generator and A.T.S.), and costs are further increased due to construction conditions in the Summerplace service area. The project service area's relatively flat topography, sandy soils and high groundwater table presents challenges during the construction of utility systems. Deep installations associated with these gravity systems will require temporary de -watering of rapid draining soils — and as the depth of installation increases, the need, difficulty and cost increases. Other challenges that impact costs include restricted ROW widths, existing landscape / vegetation in ROW, and existing streets and driveways that will necessarily need to be re -constructed and re -paved. - Likely Total Cost Gravity Collection System: • $ 3,049,250.56 = $11,335.50 per home site (269 homes) - Impact and Connection Fees: • $2,846.00 per home site Page 9 of 25 B. Replacement with Vacuum System: Primary considerations for incorporation of this system in the Summerplace service area are: 1. Existing site conditions: topography, soils and groundwater table 2. Existing Utilities: water main and electrical service lines on side of road, in vicinity of proposed vacuum main route. There is a risk of public hazard if the water main is damaged during construction. 3. Road ROW and street tree disturbance. The depth of the utility main and placement of the main relative to pavement and vegetation dictates the extent of disturbance. Many streets are narrow with mature canopy trees and vegetation within 5 to 10 feet of the edge of the road. 4. Dewatering requirements. 5. Impact and disturbance to the neighborhood — road closures, dust and noise, and damage or loss of street trees and vegetation. 6. Emergency backup power provisions. 7. Equipped for remote monitoring and controls. 8. Maintenance and operation requirements. 9. Reliability of system. 10. Construction installation costs. System Description — Two separate sewer collection areas were implemented in the conceptual design of the vacuum system as a result of existing conditions and design / construction restraints (See Appendix Section C, sheet C-6). The system should be considered a hybrid system, since a vacuum system would be used for 217 units, and a gravity sewer system would be used for 52 units. The two system areas are: 1. South East sub area (gravity): This area has 52 residential home sites. Due to the geometric lay -out and lack of utility easements, it is not as feasible to extend vacuum lines as it is to extend gravity lines to this small sub area located in the south east of the project's service area. Existing nearby gravity sewer infrastructure makes the extension of the gravity sewer system to this sub area much more economical. Therefore this sub area is not included within the sub area served by the vacuum system, but will be served by a gravity sewer collection system. This sub area includes three cul-de-sacs: one street east of A- 1 -A (East Barefoot Place), and two streets west of A -1-A (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes). The systems are designed to drain to the south to an existing lift station constructed near Wabasso Beach, on the east side of A -1-A. This existing lift station was designed and constructed to accommodate this future service area. The existing lift station does not have emergency back-up power. A diesel generator and automatic transfer switch will be installed to increase this systems reliability. SBS has inspected the site of the existing lift station and there appears to be ample space to place the diesel generator to the east of the wet well (See Appendix Section E — Existing Lift Station at Wabasso Beach). 2. Vacuum system sub area (Vacuum): This area has 217 residential home sites, and includes all areas west of A -1-A, except for a small area at the southeast vicinity (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes); and serves all areas east of A -1-A, Page 10 of 25 I a& - I ;L except a small area on the south end (east Barefoot Lane).This area is designed for sewage collection via a vacuum collection system, which entails connection of each house service to a dedicated collection chamber from which a vacuum system transfers the collected sewage to a central location via vacuum. A layout of the system is shown in Section C, sheet C-6. Similar to the gravity flow system, electric service is only required at the central vacuum station. The conceptual design of the vacuum system is based on providing one (1) collection chamber for two (2) homes wherever possible. It is assumed the collection chambers would be located in the road ROW along the front property lines at adjoining lot corners. Each home would connect to the chamber with a 6 - inch PVC (SDR 35) service. This service will run from the existing house sewer connection, near the existing septic tank, to the new collection chambers. These 6 -inch services provide system storage, in addition to the storage in the collection chambers. The vacuum system will consist of 4" through 8" PVC (SDR 21) pipe laid in a saw- tooth pattern down the side of the streets (opposite of the water mains), generally draining from east to west to a single vacuum pump station, located at the western limits of the service area, within an existing IRC Drainage and Utility easement (OR Book 1994, P.2396). The easement is at the western extension of Coco Plum Lane, west of Frangipani Drive. The vacuum station will transfer sewage to the County's existing force main on CR510, which transfers sewage from most of the north barrier island to a regional pump station located on CR510 at Jungle trail, which transfers the sewage to the wastewater treatment plant. The station includes the vacuum pumps, chamber, and sewage pumps for transfer via force main to a connection point to the existing IRCDUS public sewer system. An emergency generator and automatic transfer switch will be installed at the site to maintain operation during power outages. The station is equipped with telemetry communication control so the operation can be monitored and controlled remotely by IRCDUS. A bio -filter will be installed with the vacuum station to minimize odors through the system vent. The station will be housed above ground to avoid problems during flooding, and the structure can be designed to look like a residential structure to minimize the aesthetic impact of the utility on the neighborhood. Section C, sheet C-1 depicts the cost breakdown used to estimate the cost of this alternative. In order to develop the cost estimate for this alternative, the following assumptions were made: • 6 -inch diameter plumbing service connection from each home to the collection chamber • One collection chamber for every two homes (90 % of homes), and one collection chamber for each home (10% of the homes) • Grade in the area is essentially flat • Central Vacuum Pump station owned and operated by IRCDUS. Pump station will be housed in a residential looking building, and landscaping will be provided to decrease aesthetic impacts to adjacent properties. System components include 2 — 10 HP vacuum pumps, 1500 gal collection tank, 2-10 HP sewage pumps, control Page 11 of 25 laL •13 panel, emergency generator, and bio -mass filter bed, and equipped with remote telemetry communication controls • FPL installed overhead 480 volt 3 phase service, from CR510 to the vacuum pump station. (cost per FPL quote) • Annual average daily wastewater flow estimated at 250 gpd per connection • 4.0 -peak factor was used to estimate the design flow • An average cost of $2250 per household is assumed to provide on-site septic system abandonment and plumbing connection to the sewage collection system • The cost includes 10% for contingencies and administrative costs • The cost includes 7.5% for final engineering design and permitting costs Discussion of Benefits and Disadvantages A vacuum system will eliminate potential for public and environmental health issues associated with poorly operating septic systems. Like the gravity sewer system, there is a need for only one electric service and therefore exposure to possible power problems is limited. The back-up power available for this system is proven and provides great reliability, and ensures there will be little or no environmental impact due to power outages and flooding that may be caused by hurricane and tropical storm events. The system should be watertight since it must maintain an active vacuum. This should make the system sound during flood conditions. A vacuum system has low maintenance requirements. IRCDUS recently installed (2007/ 2008) and operates an AIRVAC vacuum system in the Rockridge community. This system replaced a low-pressure system. IRC staff interviewed by SBS in November 2013 indicated that after 5 years of operation, the vacuum system was much more reliable than the previous low pressure system. Maintenance, while requiring a little more effort than a gravity system, is routine and not demanding, and MUCH less than the low pressure system it replaced. In addition, system operations have been with -out incident since start up. Staff indicated that the typical maintenance requirements (above that of a gravity system) at the vacuum pump station and the valve pit assemblies at each home includes: -Vacuum station: check oil in vacuum pumps and drain condensation daily. Change oil every 500 hrs., and change exhaust filters annually. -Valve Pits: check vacuum valves/ reset timing, as needed. Pressure monitoring at vacuum station will indicate if there is a faulty valve in the system. IRC staff did not know the estimated hours of maintenance required on an annual basis. However, AIRVAC, a supplier of Vacuum systems, estimated the annual man-hours for maintenance and operation of a vacuum system at Summerplace to be approximately 551 manhours per year. AIRVAC also estimates that the system components have a life expectancy of 10 to 30+ years (10 for misc. parts and controllers, 15 for vacuum valves and pumps, 20 for control panels, 30 years for collection tank, and 30+ years for vacuum mains). A vacuum system is designed to be water tight to carry a vacuum. However, if a leak were to occur, it can be troublesome to detect where the leak is located. Therefore, a properly designed system must include isolation valves to aid in detecting leak locations. IRC staff has indicated that in its 5 years of operation at Rockridge, there were no leaks within the vacuum mains and only a couple found in the vacuum pits due to "hung valves". Page 12 of 25 )a& •14 At each occurrence, these were detected and fixed within an hour. Other conditions unique to the vacuum system are: - A vacuum system has high velocity sewage flow, which minimizes settlement of solids and potential for clogging. - Vacuum systems have less storage volume compared to a typical lift station. Therefore, the system will run more often than a lift station, creating the potential for more noise and potential odor problems. Consideration should be given to the design of an enclosed pump station building and odor control. - Vacuum systems have 4 pumps (2 vacuum and 2 sewage), while a typical gravity sewer lift station only has 2 sewage pumps; and due to limited storage volumes, the vacuum sewage pumps will run longer. Therefore its electrical cost will be greater. - Home sites will require a valve pit and vent stack located in the road ROW at the front lot corner. The construction of a vacuum sewer system in the Summerplace service area is anticipated to have less of an impact and disturbance to the neighborhoods than the gravity sewer system. The system design attributes — small diameter vacuum mains which are flat lying, require relatively shallow installation depth and narrow trench width - permit the construction of the mains with minimal impact and disturbance to the adjacent streets, infrastructure and vegetation, and will not require dewatering activities. - Vacuum mains will typically be installed in the road side grass areas, with minimal disturbance to the roads. Where mains need to cross paved roads or improved driveways, damage is avoided via use of boring techniques easily implemented with the small diameter mains installed. Temporary road closures will typically not be required. - A public water distribution system lies along all the streets in the service area. Installation of vacuum sewer utility mains within narrow streets with adjacent water mains poses installation challenges. There is a risk of public hazard if the water main is damaged during construction. The existing water distribution system generally lies on one side of the street, and will dictate in many circumstances where the vacuum sewer utility main can be laid. (generally, on the opposite side of the road). - Due to the installation of the mains on the side of the roads, front yard and ROW Canopy trees and landscaping could be damaged and preventative limb and root pruning will be necessary, and some tree / vegetation loss is inevitable. However, the small diameter mains can be easily routed around specimen trees or bored beneath the root structure, and losses can be reduced. - Compaction efforts in road side excavations is via small equipment. Translated vibration is NOT expected to impact adjacent structures. - Dewatering is not anticipated on the majority of the installation. — impacts to wells and the aquifer or surface drainage systems is not expected. - Construction noise and dust is expected on any construction project, but will be much less than that anticipated for a gravity system installation. A vacuum system will have a high upfront cost due to the high cost of the collection chambers and the vacuum / pump station. To reduce upfront costs, the installation of the collection chambers can be deferred until each household is ready to connect. However, because this project is proposed as a retro fit / replacement for private septic systems in a developed service area for environmental reasons, the deferral of the collection chambers Page 13 of 25 1'.\(,- IS for each household will not provide the immediate environmental benefit required for this project. Therefore, for this project, the assumption is that the costs for the collection chamber installation to serve each home are a necessary up front task and cost. The vacuum systems construction costs are dramatically impacted by the cost of the vacuum pump station, which is typically housed in a building to contain noise and control odor. Costs are also increased to make the station compatible with the neighborhood — it is recommended that the pump housing / structure is designed to look like a residential structure, and the site should also be landscape to match the residential character of the neighborhood. Other vacuum sewer system construction costs are relatively in -expensive — the small diameter vacuum mains installed on the road side can avoid disturbance of paved roads and driveways, and costs are lower relative to a gravity sewer main and manholes. However, other challenges that could impact costs include restricted ROW widths, and existing landscape / vegetation in ROW. - Likely Total Cost — Hybrid Vacuum / Gravity System • $3,450,587.26 = $12,827.46 per home site {269 homes} - Impact and Connection Fees • $2,846.00 per home site Page 14 of 25 1 aG'14 C. Replacement with Low Pressure System: Primary considerations for incorporation of this system in the SummerPlace service area are: 1. Existing site conditions: topography, soils and groundwater table 2. Existing Utilities: water main and electrical service lines on side of road, in vicinity of proposed vacuum main route. There is a risk of public hazard if the water main is damaged during construction. 3. Road ROW and street tree disturbance. The depth of the utility main and placement of the main relative to pavement and vegetation dictates the extent of disturbance. Many streets are narrow with mature canopy trees and vegetation within 5 to 10 feet of the edge of the road. 4. Dewatering requirements. 5. Impact and disturbance to the neighborhood — road closures, dust and noise, and damage or loss of street trees and vegetation. 6. Emergency backup power provisions. 7. Equipped with audible and visual alarm. 8. Maintenance and operation requirements. 9. Corrosive environmental conditions. 10. Reliability of system. 11. Construction installation costs. System Description — Two separate sewer collection areas were implemented in the conceptual design and analysis of the low pressure system as a result of existing conditions and design 1 construction restraints. The two system areas will provide sewer collection capabilities for 269 households (see Appendix Section D, sheet D-5). The system should be considered a hybrid system, since a low pressure system would be used for 217 units, and a gravity sewer system would be used for 52 units. The two system areas are: 1. South East sub area (gravity): This area has 52 residential home sites. Due to the geometric lay -out and lack of utility easements, it is not as feasible to extend low pressure mains as it is to extend gravity lines to this small sub area located in the south east of the project's service area. Existing nearby gravity sewer infrastructure makes the extension of the gravity sewer system to this sub area much more economical. Therefore this sub area is not included within the sub area served by the low pressure system, but will be served by a gravity sewer collection system. This sub area includes three cul-de-sacs: one street east of A -1-A (East Barefoot Place), and two streets west of A -1-A (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes). The systems are designed to drain to the south to an existing lift station constructed near Wabasso Beach, on the east side of A -1-A. This existing lift station was designed and constructed to accommodate this future service area. The existing lift station does not have emergency back-up power. A diesel generator and automatic transfer switch will be installed to increase this systems reliability. SBS has inspected the site of the existing lift station and there appears to be ample space to place the diesel generator to the east of the wet well (See Appendix Section E — Existing Lift Station at Wabasso Beach). Page 15 of 25 1 aG •1- 2. Low pressure system sub area (low pressure): This area has 217 residential home sites, and includes all areas west of A -1-A, except for a small area at the southeast vicinity (West Barefoot and West Shell Lanes); and serves all areas east of A -1-A, except a small area on the south end (east Barefoot Lane).This area is designed for sewage collection via low pressure system, which entails the connection of each house to a grinder pump station (typically one or two homes per station). The sewage is pumped out of the wet well and into an adjacent low pressure small diameter sewer force main system (typically 4" diameter) which is generally routed along the side of the street and connects to and discharges into the existing centralized sewer transmission force mains located on Cr510 and SR A -1-A. The conceptual design of the low pressure system is based on providing one (1) duplex (two pump) grinder pump station for two (2) homes wherever possible, and one simplex (one pump) grinder station for single homes where required. It is assumed the pump stations would be located in the road ROW for the smaller simplex system, and within a front yard easement (approx. 5' x 10') for the larger duplex system — located along the front property lines at adjoining lot corners. Each home would connect to pump station with a 4 inch or 6 -inch PVC (SDR 35) service. This service will run from the existing house sewer connection, near the existing septic tank, to the pump station. The system operates as follows: The liquid level triggers the pump in the wet well to operate, and the sewage is pumped out of the wet well and into the low pressure force main system. The low pressure system consists of 4" C900 PVC pipe laid along the side of the streets (opposite of the water mains). These low pressure mains connect to and discharge into existing IRCDUS force mains located in CR510 and SR A -1-A. A power distribution system is provided for this sewage collection system with emergency backup provisions to accommodate potential power outages (i.e. during a Hurricane) (see Appendix Section D, sheet D-6). It is proposed under this alternative to secure up to three sites to locate ATS and generator equipment. The three sites must be located to minimize the distance from the generator to each of the individual distribution panels. Three dedicated automatic transfer switch (ATS) stations are provided with permanent diesel generators to provide centralized power for the system. The ATS stations will receive high voltage (480 volt) power from the power company from the existing overhead distribution system. Upon loss of normal power, the ATS will automatically start the generator and then switchover to emergency power to keep all stations fully operational during the power outage. The three (3) ATS stations will feed 15 electrical distribution panels located through -out the service area. Each distribution panel will provide electrical service to the simplex and duplex home site pump stations. Underground power is to be installed largely along proposed low pressure force main routes or within other utility easements from the three ATS stations, to the 15 distribution panels, to the home site pump stations. Section D, sheet D-5 depicts the proposed low pressure force main system, and Section D, sheet D-6 depicts the Electrical distribution system lay -out Section D, sheet D-1 depicts the cost breakdown used to estimate the cost of this alternative. In order to develop the cost estimate for this alternative, the following Page 16 of 25 t�.4�f8 assumptions were made: • 4 or 6 -inch diameter service connection per home • One duplex grinder pump station (2-2 HP 3 PH 460 volt grinder pumps, 48" x 6 ft. well, 30"x40" valve vault) with audible and visual alarm for every two homes (90 % of homes) • One simplex grinder pump station (1-2 HP 3 PH 460 volt grinder pump, with 30" x 5 ft. well with all valves / control in well) with audible and visual alarm for single home sites where required (10% of the homes). • Grade in the area is essentially flat • Annual average daily wastewater flow estimated as 250 gpd per connection • 4.0 -peak factor was used to estimate the design flow • Central electrical distribution system with three main electrical distribution panels with Automatic Transfer Stations for emergency power by permanent generators. • FPL installed overhead 480 volt 3 phase service, from CR510 and SR A-1 -A to the three (3) main control panel / ATS stations (cost per FPL quote) • An average cost of $2250 per household is assumed to provide on-site septic system abandonment and plumbing connection to the sewage collection system. • The cost includes 10% for contingencies and administrative costs. • The cost includes 7.5% for final engineering design and permitting costs. Discussion of Benefits and Disadvantages A low pressure system can minimize the potential for public and environmental health issues associated with poorly operating septic systems. However, unlike a gravity or vacuum sewer system, there is a need for multiple electric service connections to run numerous individual grinder pump stations. Therefore exposure to possible power interruption or other mechanical or electrical failures is a significant concern. In order to minimize the likelihood of a disruption of electrical service, a common master electrical distribution system with emergency backup power is necessary to provide reliable operation in emergency situations. If the low pressure system is not in operation for more than 24 hours, the home site pump stations will likely back up, creating an immediate public and environmental health hazard, and potential environmental damage associated with sewage overflowing into the streets and draining into the Lagoon. This possibility is contrary to the environmental goals for this project. Consequently, the implementation of this system must include emergency operation measures; and unlike the gravity and vacuum systems, due to the decentralized electrical requirements of numerous home site pump stations, providing only one electric service location is not practical or feasible. Therefore, a power distribution system is proposed to provide the emergency operations capabilities required of this project. However, this power distribution system, including three main electric service and distribution panel locations and fifteen distribution panels and the associated underground conduits and wiring will be expensive and makes this system less feasible then the others. The low pressure system is the least reliable system, and will require substantial weekly, monthly and annual maintenance to the many individual pump stations. Low pressure systems have many electrical panels, pump stations, and mechanical and electrical components — located at each home site, and additional common electrical equipment within the service area. It is estimated that the Summerplace system would need 119 pump stations (98 duplex and 21 simplex), with 217 pumps, 119 electrical panels, 15 electrical distribution system sub panels, 3 master distribution system electrical panels with Page 17 of 25 3 ATS stations and 3 diesel generators. Chances for failure are greater with many system components. Further, the Summerplace service area is located on the barrier island in a corrosive environment within flood prone areas — the likelihood of these many components having intermittent failures is more likely. (It is worthy to note that IRCDUS replaced a low pressure system at Rockridge community in 2007 / 2008 with a Vacuum system due to reliability concerns and significant failures causing environmental damages during the 2004 hurricane events). A low pressure system will likely have the most laborious maintenance requirements. IRCDUS currently has a low pressure system which has been in operation for 15+ years in the River Lake Estates/Oak Island Subdivisions, located north of 73rd Street, east of U.S. Highway 1.IRC staff interviewed by SBS in October 2013 indicated the system has had many maintenance and operation challenges through the years. Staff indicated that the typical maintenance requirements for a low pressure system included: - Check wet well at each home annually — check seals, clean. (water/ hose bib connection from home owner) -Check control panels annually — clean, tighten and replace corroded parts -Check pump operation at each every home annually. -Service calls — 3 to 4 per month for 76 +- homes. (9 to 12 per month equivalent at Summerplace)) IRC staff did not know the estimated hours of maintenance required on an annual basis. The system components have a life expectancy of 10 to 30+ years (10 for misc. parts and controllers, 15 for pumps, 20 for control panels, 20 for fiberglass wet wells, and 30+ years for low pressure force mains). A low pressure system is designed to be water tight. Force mains are designed, constructed and tested to the same standards as a water main — to hold up to 200 psi. A properly designed system should include isolation valves to aid in detecting leak locations and shutting down a section of main to permit maintenance. Other conditions unique to the low pressure system are: - A low pressure force main system can have intermittent flow conditions (no flow, to flows reaching 5 fps). Settlement of solids can occur, and there is the potential for constricting pipe flow, causing higher pressure conditions and more strain on the small grinder pumps. - Low pressure systems rely on small wet wells at each home site. The wet wells generally have minimal extra storage volume. Any electrical or mechanical failure can result in the wet well overflowing in yards and streets, or backing up sewage into the home within 12 to 24 hours. These systems are NOT monitored by IRCDUS telemetry systems (not practical or feasible), and the failure can easily go un -noticed. An audible alarm and visual beacon can be placed at the control panels — but can go un -noticed if no one is present. - The low pressure systems typical incorporates small grinder lift stations, with 1 pump for single home site applications, and dual pumps when serving 2 home sites. The number of pumps for Summerplace service area is likely to require 217 pumps. The electrical cost associated with running all these pumps with a common electrical distribution system will cost far greater than either a vacuum or gravity system. - Additional utility easements may be needed from home owners: one duplex Page 18 of 25 Ia.`•ao (two pump) grinder pump station is proposed for two (2) homes wherever possible, and one simplex (one pump) grinder station for single homes where required. It is assumed the pump stations would be located in the road ROW for the smaller simplex system, and within a front yard easement (approx. 5' x 10') for the larger duplex system — located along the front property lines at adjoining lot corners. The construction of a low pressure sewer system in the Summerplace service area is anticipated to have less of an impact and disturbance to the neighborhoods than the gravity sewer system, and a similar impact as that caused by the vacuum system. The system design attributes — small diameter force mains which are flat lying, require relatively shallow installation depth and narrow trench width - permit the construction of the mains with minimal impact and disturbance to the adjacent streets, infrastructure and vegetation, and will not require dewatering activities. - Force mains will typically be installed in the road side grass areas, with minimal disturbance to the roads. Where mains need to cross paved roads or improved driveways, damage is avoided via use of boring techniques easily implemented with the small diameter mains installed. Temporary road closures will typically not be required. - A public water distribution system lies along all the streets in the service area. Installation of force mains within narrow streets with adjacent water mains poses installation challenges. There is a risk of public hazard if the water main is damaged during construction. The existing water distribution system generally lies on one side of the street, and will dictate in many circumstances where the force main can be laid (generally, on the opposite side of the road). - Due to the installation of the mains on the side of the roads, front yard and ROW Canopy trees and landscaping could be damaged and preventative limb and root pruning will be necessary, and some tree / vegetation loss is inevitable. However, the small diameter mains can be easily routed around specimen trees or bored beneath the root structure, and losses can be reduced. - Compaction efforts in road side excavations are via small equipment. Translated vibration is NOT expected to impact adjacent structures. - Dewatering is not anticipated on the majority of the installation. — impacts to wells and the aquifer or surface drainage systems is not expected. - Construction noise and dust is expected on any construction project, but will be much less than that anticipated for a gravity system installation. - Lift stations will be required at front lot lines. Duplex stations will require a front yard easement (5'x10'). The excavation for this installation may impact home site landscaping. Low pressure sewer systems were developed initially as a low cost alternative to a conventional gravity sewer system. The primary savings is in the low 'up front' costs associated with the construction of small diameter pressure mains in lieu of the 8" gravity sewer mains, and because the grinder pump station costs can be deferred until construction of homes progresses. However, because this project is proposed as a retrofit / replacement for private septic systems in a developed service area for environmental reasons, the deferral of the pump station construction at each home does not provide the immediate environmental benefit required for this project. Therefore, for this project, the assumption is that the cost for the pump station installation to serve each home is a necessary up front task and cost. Page 19 of 25 I ZG -Q.1 The low pressure systems construction costs are dramatically impacted by the cost of the individual lift stations necessary at each home site and the cost of the common master electrical distribution system needed to provide a system with a reliability closer to that offered by the gravity or vacuum systems, and one that is necessary in order to realize the environmental benefits required for this project. Other low pressure system construction costs are relatively in -expensive — the small diameter force mains installed on the road side avoid disturbance of paved roads and driveways, and help reduce costs relative to a gravity sewer main and manholes. However, other challenges that could impact costs include restricted ROW widths, and existing landscape/ vegetation in ROW. - Likely Total Cost — Hybrid Low Pressure / Gravity System 0 $6,005,592.32 = $22,325.62 per home site (269 homes) - Impact and Connection Fees • $2,846.00 per home site Page 20 of 25 V. Recommendations: Summary: Construction costs are one of many parameters that are considered when evaluating and recommending a sewer system to serve the Summerplace service area. Favorable consideration has been given to the system that will provide environmental benefits to the lagoon, provide reliable continuous operation (i.e. during prolonged storm induced power outages), minimize impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods, and minimize maintenance requirements to the utility. Construction Costs: In order to provide a sewer system that meets the goals of this project - to eliminate the detrimental impacts to the lagoon caused by septic systems, and to reduce the risk of any system failures that would also cause immeasurable harm to the environment - costs for the three respective systems included design specifications that would meet these goals. This meant that systems would not be piecemealed but would be constructed in a single phase as a complete functional system - connecting every home within the service area. In addition, systems would need to be monitored and / or alarmed, and systems would require back up / emergency power supply. Providing these necessary features has increased the cost for all three systems. The system costs, in order of least costly to most costly, are as follows: -1. Gravity sewer system: $ 3,049,250.56 -2. Hybrid Vacuum/Gravity System: $3,450,587.26 -3. Hybrid Low Pressure/Gravity System: $6,005,592.32 Environmental benefits: it is clear that both the gravity and vacuum systems will effectively eliminate almost any possible environmental damage that is caused by existing septic systems and has the least risk associated with potential accidents / failures of the implementation of each respective system. In contrast, the low pressure system is not as simple or as reliable as these systems — it has many characteristics that contribute to its unreliability and vulnerability for failure, including: numerous electrical and mechanical system parts and components, most of which are decentralized; increased vulnerability to environment (salt air, flooding); limited monitoring capabilities; limited storage capacity. Impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods: The gravity system will have the greatest impact and disturbance on the neighborhood. Short term impacts include: road closures and landscape damage caused by sewer main installation; continuous noise, potential minor flooding and irrigation well failures from de -watering operations; excessive dust, vibration and noise due to road reconstruction. Long term impacts could include translated vibratory compaction damage to structures, salt water intrusion in the shallow aquifer; and loss of specimen canopy trees. Vacuum and low pressure systems, like any construction within an established community, will cause disturbances to the neighborhoods. However, paved streets and improved driveways are not anticipated to be damaged and in need of reconstruction, and there will be little need for de -watering operations. Therefore, the construction is anticipated to create much less disturbance to the neighborhood, and will be of a shorter duration, with less intense noise and dust, and little if any vibration. Page 21 of 25 IAt.- Maintenance requirements to the utility: It is clear that the gravity system has the least maintenance and long term operation requirements, and will be the most cost effective to operate. This is the standard system used in the majority of development projects in IRC, and IRCDUS is adept at and experienced in the maintenance and long term operation of these systems. The vacuum system requires similar, but a little more maintenance and will cost a little more to operate due to maintenance time (man-hours) and electrical costs (for pump station). Major components that require additional efforts are the central vacuum pump station, which has an additional two vacuum pumps, and the valve pits at each home site, which require inspections and adjustments on occasion. IRC personal interviewed for this project, which operates and maintains the vacuum system in the Rockridge community, has indicated that the system in Rockridge has run very efficiently and without problems for five years. (Note: This system was a replacement for an inefficient and unreliable low pressure system). In contrast, the low pressure systems require a significant amount of maintenance — and it is estimated that 9 to 12 service calls would be made per month. Conclusion: The low pressure system does not provide the reliability needed to meet the goals of this project, and in an attempt to design this system with the goals of this project in mind, the costs for a low pressure system are uneconomical. Therefore, the low pressure system should not be considered for implementation for Summerplace. Both the gravity sewer system and the vacuum systems meet the environmental goals for this project. Construction costs are within 12% of each other, and actual bid costs may fluctuate as much as 20% from this estimate, and may fluctuate as much as 20% from high to low bidder on either system when final design and permitting is completed and it is bid publicly. Based on the construction costs alone, there is not a clear favorite. Summerplace area is a unique residential community with many narrow unpaved lanes with large oak tree and cabbage palm canopy covering the right of way, and native vegetation preserved throughout the community. Many of its homes were built in the 1960's and 1970's, and at least '/2 prior to 1983. Most homes depend on the shallow aquifer for irrigation, and have structure and foundation systems that would not meet current building codes. While unique, in some respects, the community is frail. The vacuum system is anticipated to have the least impact and disturbance to this community — and should leave it intact and without permanent damage. Its operation costs are not much higher than the gravity system costs, and IRCDUS experience with the Rockridge community's vacuum system is favorable. Therefore, after consideration of the vacuum sewer systems construction costs, environmental benefits to the lagoon, reliability, impacts and disturbance to the neighborhood, and maintenance requirements to the utility, this system is recommended for implementation to provide sewer collection for the Summerplace service area. Page 22 of 25 lIaLto •-Z14 Post Script "Septic Tank and Effluent Pump" (STEP) system After SBS was given notice to proceed with the above study, discussions involving the implementation of a "Septic Tank and Effluent Pump" (STEP) system in certain areas within IRC and the City of Vero Beach were started — both in public forums and reported in local news. While a full analysis of the implementation of this system is not within the scope of this study, SBS has prepared the following limited narrative of the system description, and its advantages and disadvantages. The STEP system is very similar to a low pressure system. The significant difference is that a STEP system incorporates an on-site septic tank (called an interceptor tank) to capture most grit, grease and troublesome solids, and retains the sludge and floatable matter, and discharges a liquid effluent. (At this point the system is almost identical to a low pressure system, except that effluent pumps (smaller HP rating) are used in lieu of grinder pumps). A small lift station with an effluent pump (typically 1/3 hp to 3/4 hp) is placed near the interceptor tank to receive the effluent. The liquid level triggers the pump in the wet well to operate, and the effluent is pumped out of the wet well and into an adjacent low pressure small diameter sewer force main system, which is generally routed along the side of the street. These low pressure mains typically connect to and discharge into the public utility infrastructure: either an existing nearby gravity sewer collection system or existing nearby centralized sewer transmission force main. Advantages of a STEP system over a low pressure system are: -due to the solids removal, less expensive effluent pumps may be used in the wet well. -due to the removal of solids, the low pressure force mains are carrying less sewage, and do not have to pass solids that could settle and clog pipes. Consequently, force main size may be reduced. It is common to use 1 '/z to 2'/z inch mains for effluent transmission. Claims that implementation of a STEP system may reduce costs dramatically and make connection affordable to residents may be an over promising panacea. This system may not be feasible or viable. The STEP system has most of the same characteristics of a low pressure system that make it unviable for this project. To summarize: The small lift stations typically are provided with a small effluent pump (typically 1/3 hp to 1/2 hp). These "low pressure" pumps have limited capacity, and may struggle to push against the utility systems force mains without another re -pumping/ booster pump station available for this purpose at an additional expense. Low pressure STEP systems rely on small wet wells at each home site. These wet wells generally have minimal extra storage volume. Any electrical or mechanical failure can result in the wet well overflowing in yards and streets, or backing up sewage into the home within 12 to 24 hours. These systems are NOT monitored by IRCDUS telemetry systems (not practical or feasible), and the failure can easily go un -noticed. An audible alarm and visual beacon can be placed at the control panels — but can go un -noticed if no one is present. The low pressure STEP systems typical incorporate small pump stations, with 1 pump for each home site application. The number of pumps for Summerplace Page 23 of 25 I�G•�S service area is likely to be 217. The electrical cost associated with running all these pumps is expensive. It is estimated that the Summerplace system would need 217 pump stations with 217 pumps and electrical panels. Chances for failure are greater with many system components. Further, the Summerplace service area is located on the barrier island in a corrosive environment within flood prone areas — and the likelihood of these many components having intermittent failures is more likely. The maintenance and operation costs, similar to a low pressure system, will be significant. Claims that existing septic tanks located in the yards of the existing home sites can be incorporated in a new STEP system (at a substantial cost savings) is likely inaccurate. The majority of homes in Summerplace were built prior to 1983, when Septic system regulations were modernized. Most pre 1983 septic tanks are 750 or 900 gallons, may leak and may be structurally unsound. EPA "Manual on Alternative Wastewater Collection Systems", document no. EPA/625/1-91/024, indicates that existing septic tanks are rarely able to be used in new STEP systems, and that 100 % replacement is common. For STEP systems, the EPA recommends that the interceptor (septic) tanks are at least 1000 gallons to serve one residential home, completely leak proof, without outside / illegal inflow sources (roof or yard drainage), and are structurally sound. The tanks also must have inflow, outflow and pump operating elevations with baffles set at predetermined elevations to ensure sludge, scum and clear zones are appropriately set relative to inflow and outflow elevations. These requirements make it necessary to excavate, test, and modify the existing tanks, which is typically prohibitively expensive. Consequently the tanks are usually replaced or abandoned and replaced with new tanks. Emergency backup power is not easily provided for this type of system in the case of power outages (i.e. during a Hurricane) because all power needs are de- centralized, and power is required at each individual pump station. Due to the decentralized electrical requirements of numerous home site pump stations, providing a central power distribution system is an expensive but necessary requirement. A power distribution system, similar to the one proposed for the low pressure system can be constructed to provide the emergency operations capabilities required of this project. However, this electrical system will be expensive and may make this system less feasible then the others. Based on the above information, it can be inferred that the STEP system may not be the most appropriate system for the Summerplace service area. It has all the shortcomings that a low pressure system has, including: numerous electrical and mechanical system parts and components, most of which are decentralized; increased vulnerability to environment (salt air, flooding); limited monitoring capabilities; limited storage capacity. In addition, this system will require the added expense of a new interceptor (septic) tank at each home, as well as the usual maintenance and "pump - out" requirements of a septic system. Page 24 of 25 I U • a.4 The success of this project relies generally on the public's acceptance and specifically on the Summerplace service areas residents' acceptance. The public users must be satisfied that the Indian River County Utilities Department has explored various financial alternatives and selects a system that will meet its goals, including: provide environmental benefits to the lagoon, provide reliable continuous operation, minimize impacts and disturbance to the neighborhoods, minimize maintenance requirements to the utility, and will be economical to install. Public acceptance of the project can be expected if the users accept the facts as follows: the project is needed; the best alternative is selected in order to execute the project; and the selected financial plan will result in the users' acceptance of their share of the project's cost. This sanitary sewer project not only benefits the local users but also benefits the community due to environmental considerations. The elimination of pollution from septic disposal systems greatly benefits the health of Indian River Lagoon. The Indian River Lagoon plays a main role in the daily life among the residents in this area and our local economy. These environmental factors will serve to make this project very attractive for securing financial grants from state and federal agencies to construct the project. This Feasibility Study may be incorporated as a supporting document for use in the process of preparing financial grant applications. Due to the high estimated cost per ERU, grant funding will be essential to the success of this project. In addition to grant funds, project financing will also be required by Indian River County Utilities Department either by financial assessments against users impacted by the project or by the County Utilities Department securing project financing or some combination of assessments and County funding. This project, if undertaken, will have substantial environmental benefits to the Indian River Lagoon, which benefits all residents of Indian River County. Therefore, some County contribution to the cost of improvements may be justified.

Presentation of the data gathered during the investigation, together with our geotechnical related opinions, are included in this report. Project Description: A Sanitary Gravity Sewer System including a Lift Station is planned for the Summer Place Subdivision. The scope of our study consisted of the following: 1. Performed Standard Penetration Test Borings in the proposed project area to estimate the subsurface soils condition. 2. Measured the groundwater leVel at each boring. 3. Evaluated the existing soil conditions with respect to the proposed project. 4. Prepared this report to document our findings. Ronald G. Keller, P.E.., 37293/St Llo.

The locations of the borings are indicated on the attached location plan. The SPT borings were completed in accordance with procedures described in ASTM D- 1586. A standard 1.5 inch I.D., 2 inch O.D. split -spoon sampler is driven into the soil by successive blows of a 140 pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler 1 foot, after seating 6 in., is designated the Penetration Resistance, or "N" value. At regular intervals the sampler is extracted from the ground and opened to allow visual examination and classification of the retained soil sample. Also, the groundwater table was allowed to stabilize and the depth of the groundwater elevation recorded from existing grade. The records of the soils encountered, the penetration resistances and groundwater level are shown on the attached logs. Findings: Based on the information obtained from this site investigation, we are pleased to offer the following evaluation: The boring logs indicate the subsurface conditions consist mostly of fine-grained sand. Shell fragments were also found in the borings. "N" values recorded during the boring operation indicate the soil density is generally loose to medium dense from the surface to a depth of approximately 12 feet and generally dense from 12 feet to 21 feet. Please refer to the soil boring logs for specific information relative to the soil description. Ronald G. Keller, P.E.: 372931 Sl Lic. No.: 860 f Julie E.

Depending on the depth of the gravity sewer line temporary dewatering will be required during construction of the gravity sewer system. Closure: This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation engineering practices based on the results of the test borings and the proposed project. This report does not reflect any variations which may occur between the borings. if variations appear evident during the course of construction, it would be necessary to re-evaluate the recommendations of this project.

C. C 02.18.14 RIVER COUNTY .ATTORNEY SUBJECT: Permission to File Suit for an Injunction against Persistent Code Violator BACKGROUND. William Ruetemann is the owner of a single family residence located at 8130 134th Street, Sebastian, Indian River County, Florida. Mr. Ruetemann purchased the home in 2007. Mr. Ruetemann's property is zoned RS -3, Single Family Residential District and it is currently his homestead. On September 28, 2010, Mr. Ruetemann obtained a home occupation zoning permit to conduct a mobile repair business out of this home. The permit was specifically limited to telephone services, office work, and/or for address purposes only. However, on January 23, 2012, the Indian River County Code Enforcement Board (the "Board") conducted a hearing and determined that Mr. Ruetemann was operating an unauthorized boat repair and painting business from his residential home. The Board also found that Mr. Ruetemann was storing boats on his property that were not registered to the property owner in violation of Indian River County's Code of Ordinances ("the Code"). The Board directed Mr. Ruetemann to take corrective action. On September 24, 2012, the Board held a hearing concerning the construction of an unauthorized pole barn as well as storing boats on his property in violation of Indian River County's Code of Ordinances. Consequently, the Board fined Mr. Ruetemann $100.00 for the stored boats. Approved for February 18, 2014 B. CC Meeting County Attorney's Agenda County Attorney INDIAN RIVER CO. APPR VED DATE Administration W AWN/ County Attorne Budget 2 Department / Risk Management ... 127 Board of County Commissioners February 12, 2014 Page 2 of 2 On March 25, 2013, the Board conducted another hearing concerning an unauthorized boat repair business. The Board determined that Mr. Ruetemann did not comply with the Board's order dated January 23, 2012. Consequently, the Board fined Mr. Ruetemann a total of $500.00 ($100.00 for each of the five days that the County Code Inspector witnessed the violation). On August 26, 2013, the Board conducted yet another hearing concerning a boat that was being stored on Mr. Ruetemann's property. The County confirmed that the boat was not registered to Mr. Ruetemann and that it was on the property to be repaired. The Board determined that Mr. Ruetemann did not comply with the Board's order dated January 23, 2012. Consequently, the Board fined Mr. Ruetemann a total of $2,000.00 for the eight days that the boat was stored on his property in violation of the Code. As of September 30, 2013, Mr. Ruetemann cancelled his home occupation zoning permit. However, according to Betty Davis, the County Code Inspector, Charles Vogt, an Environmental Specialist from the Florida Department of Health, and numerous neighbors, Mr. Ruetemann has not discontinued his unauthorized boat repair business. Neighbors have consistently complained that Mr. Reutemann's boat repair activities create excessive noise and odor. On February 7, 2014, the Department of Health issued a letter to Mr. Ruetemann stating that he was in violation of a number of state and local laws including, but not limited to, Chapter 85-427, Special Acts, Laws of Florida, and Indian River County Ordinance No. 91-22. The letter directs Mr. Ruetemann to immediately cease and desist all boat repair operations on his property until he obtains the necessary permits to conduct such a business. However, on February 12, 2014, the County confirmed that Mr. Ruetemann has chosen to continue his unauthorized boat repair business and is storing boats on his property in violation of the Code. Moreover, Mr. Ruetemann has resorted to methods of intimidation towards his neighbors so that they will not report his actions to the County. A number of the citizens who live near Mr. Ruetemann are now anxious and/or frightened. FUNDING. Funding for any costs associated with a suit (approximately $500) is budgeted and available from the MSTU Fund/Code Enforcement/Other Professional Services -Account #00420704-033190. RECOMMENDATION. Due to the continuing nature of the boat repair operations, despite numerous orders and notices and the potential for environmental harm, the County Attorney's Office recommends that the Board of County Commissioners authorize the County Attorney's Office to file suit in circuit court for injunctive relief asking the court to force Mr. Ruetemann to cease and desist the unauthorized boat repair business and to stop storing boats on his property that are not registered to him. 128 Dylan Reingold, County Attorney William K.

The County bought this small system out in 1995, consolidating in into the larger County system. Because some of the Sebastian system's debt was assumed, the County apparently began billing Sebastian customers an "Equalization Charge." At the time, the charge may well have been appropriate. Now, many years later the County still charges this fee, which goes to the County general fund. It has been suggested that all has been equalized between the County and the Sebastian customers, that the "Equalization Charge" is no longer just, and that it is time to end the fee. It has been noted that at the time that the charge was initially imposed, the Sebastian system had approximately 864 accounts. Today the County Sewer and Water system has approximately 11,425 Sebastian customers. I cannot understand why the 10,561 new Sebastian area accounts should be treated any differently than any accounts in the unincorporated areas of the County. 141 I will note that the new Sebastian customers have paid their ERU fees and, like other County customers, are paying for capital costs, renewal and replacement costs and operating costs, as part of their monthly water and sewer charge, that is, these costs are embedded in utilities rate structure. Further, while the County utility system assumed debt when it took over the Sebastian system, I do not understand why the 10,561 new customers should be any more responsible for the debt than any other utility customer who happens to live in the unincorporated area of the County. It should be noted that the "Equalization Charge " is paid into the County's general fund and not the Sewer and Water Utility, so in essence, the charge has nothing to do with the purchase of the Sebastian utility by the County enterprise fund. I do not doubt that the County has the power to continue placing the "Equalization Charge" on the bills of our Sebastian customers. The proper question though is, do we have the right to do so; is it the just thing to do? The answer may depend on the individual's view of the function of government. If one's view is that the institution of government ought to be supported, protected and entrenched, then one might consider the continuation of the "Equalization Charge" consistent with good government. If, however, one believes that the primary purpose of government is to serve the people of our community, which believe is the view elected officials ought to hold, then I can find no justification for the continuation of the Sebastian "Equalization Charge". After we have discussed this matter at the next BCC meeting, I am hoping that the Board will agree. Thank you. 142 BCC AGENDA February 18, 2014 ITEM 14.1)(2) INDIAN RIVER COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE: February 11, 2014 SUBJECT: Gifford Economics Development Council Inc. (GEDC) FROM: Commissioner Bob Solari At the February 11, 2014 meeting of the BCC Min. William Mosley spoke. During the course of the discussion I set up an appointment to meet with him and discuss the GEDC with him at the offices of the GEDC the next day at 2:00pm. Chairman O'Bryan asked that I report back to the BCC. This will be that report. Attached is a list of questions that I brought to the GEDC meeting. I thought that it would be reasonable to ask some basic financial and organization questions of the GEDC leadership. In addition, as the GEDC is a non-profit, I thought that it would be appropriate to ask the GEDC questions similar to those that we would ask any non-profit that sought financial support from the County government. Jason Brown helped with the formulation of some of the questions Thank you. 143 Gifford Economics Development Council Inc. Questions for 2-12-14 meeting with Min.
