tANDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA
DINA JENNINGS RETIREMENT
Dina Jennings announces her retirement from Indian River
County Board of County Commissioners effective March 31, 1992.
Dina Jennings, originally from Caribou, Maine, has been a resident
of Indian River County since 1972.
Dina Jennings was originally hired by the City of Vero Beach on
September 29, 1980 as an Administrative Secretary in the South
Indian River County Fire District. On October 1986 the Fire
District was taken over by Indian River.County Board of County
Commissioners and Ms. Jennings offically became a County employee.
Dina Jennings has seen tremendous change within the Fire District
since the beginning of her career. When she was first employed by
the Fire District she was the only secretary and the district had
35 employees; now she supervises (3) secretaries and the County
wide fire service has 126 employees. She has worked for three Fire
Chiefs - Chief Forrest Smith, Chief John C. Allen, and currently
Chief Otis Humanes.
Dina Jennings has always been willing to take on additional tasks
with enthusiasm. Her performance reviews have always been above
average. She has excellent knowledge of Fire District operations.
Ms. Jennings has been an asset to the Fire District and will be
missed very much by Emergency Services and the Fire District.
The Board of County Commissioners wishes to express their
appreciation for the outstanding performance Dina Jennings has
contributed on behalf of Indian River County. The County
Commissioners wish her the very best in her future endeavors.

D. Change Fixed Asset Threshold to $500
The Board reviewed memo from OMB Director Joe Baird dated
March 18, 1992:
TO: Members of the Board
of County Commissioners
DATE: March 18, 1992
SUBJECT: CHANGE F KED ASSET THRESHOLD TO $500.00
CONSENT ITEM
FROM: Joseph A. Baird t
OMB Director
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
Finance and the Budget office have been discussing changing the threshold for capitalizing
fixed assets from $200 to $500. Florida Statutes 274.02 allows fixture and other tangible
personal property of a non -consumable nature with a value of $500.00 or more and a
normal expected life is one year or more to be capitalized. The amount was changed to
$500.00 in the law several years ago and Indian River County did not increase the amount
at that time.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff feels that we should change the threshold on fixed assets to $500.00 to be effective
October, 1, 1992.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously changed the
threshold on fixed assets to $500.00 to be effective
October 1, 1992, as recommended by staff.
E. Repeal of Certain Chapters in the 1974 Edition of the Code
Set Public Hearing Date
The Board reviewed memo from Assistant County Attorney Terry
O'Brien dated March 16, 1992:
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Terrence P. O'Brien - Assistant County Attorney—fl-"O
DATE: March 16, 1992
SUBJECT: REPEAL OF CERTAIN CHAPTERS IN THE 1974 EDITION
OF THE CODE
A number of chapters in the Indian River County (1974 edition) merely
reflect Special Acts of the Florida Legislature and, therefore, are not
County Codes that can be amended or repealed by the County. These
Special Acts are better placed in an appendix to the new code.
Accordingly, the attached ordinance removes these Special Acts from
the Code (1974 edition) and places them in an appendix to the new
code.
A public hearing date of April 21, 1992 is recommended.

Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously set April

of certain chapters in the 1974 edition of The Code,
as recommended by staff.

SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL DISTRICT
SUBJECT: EARTH MONTH PROCLAMATION
BACKGROUND
The Indian River County Curbside Recycling Program kick-off cele-
bration is scheduled to take place April 3, 1992. Traditional-
ly, the national Earth Day observance also takes place in April,
with events taking place all during that month at local, state
and national levels.
ANALYSIS
Because the county curbside program and the national Earth Day
observances will take place during April, the Solid Waste Dispos-
al District feels a formal county -wide recognition of the envi-
ronment would be appropriate.
RECOMMENDATION
The Solid Waste Disposal District hereby requests that the Board
of County Commissioners issue a proclamation naming April Earth
Month in Indian River County. The proclamation could then be
read during the curbside recycling kick-off April 3.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously issued a
proclamation naming April Earth Month in Indian
River County.

DATE:
March 18, 1992
SUBJECT: Request for Execution of Interlocal
Agreement with St. Johns River
Water Management District
for SWIM Grant Funding
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular
meeting of March 24, 1992.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
The state Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) Program
for the Indian River Lagoon has made funding available for projects
of local concern. This funding is available on a 80/20 match
basis; 80% SWIM funds - 20% local in-kind match. The SWIM funds
are distributed through an interlocal agreement between a local
government and the St. Johns River Water Management District. The
program requires that proposed projects be approved by the
appropriate local Indian River Lagoon Watershed Action Committee.
The County appointed Marine Advisory/Narrows Watershed Action
Committee (MANWAC) selected two revegetation projects and submitted
both to St. Johns for SWIM funding consideration. One project
involves Ski Island (Boat Club Island), while the other project
involves the lagoon shoreline along Live Oak Drive, adjacent to the
Environmental Learning Center site. The attached proposal
describes existing conditions, proposed revegetation plan and
estimated budget amounts for the two proposed projects.
On January 20, 1992, the MANWAC selected the attached projects for
submittal to St. Johns River Water Management District for SWIM
funding as projects of local concern. The project proposals were
then submitted to SJRWMD by county environmental planning staff, on
behalf of the MANWAC. The attached interlocal agreement will be
presented to the SJRWMD Governing Board on April 7, 1992 for
execution.

This matter is presented to the Board of County Commissioners for
approval of the allocation of local funds, in the form of in-kind
services, for the referenced projects and for authorization of the
chairman to execute the attached interlocal agreement with the St.
Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD).
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS:
Both project proposals submitted for funding involve the
revegetation of lagoon habitats which are disfunctional due to the
invasion of nuisance exotic vegetation. Project "A" involves the
revegetation of 400 feet of lagoon shoreline along Live Oak Drive
on Wabasso Island, adjacent to the Environmental Learning Center
site. Australian pine trees will be cut down along the road right-
of-way, and red mangrove seedlings will be planted along the
water's edge.
Project "B" will be located on Ski Island (also known as Boat Club
Island) in the Indian River Lagoon. Brazilian pepper trees will be
removed from the interior uplands on the island, and native tree
seedlings will be planted. This revegetation will promote a fully
functional ecosystem to provide wildlife habitat and protection of
the wetland fringe.
Contractual land clearing and purchase of native plants totaling
$8,602 will be funded by the Indian River Lagoon SWIM program. In-
kind services equivalent to $6,550 will be provided by the county
($2,800), volunteers ($1,700), the Vero Beach Junior High School
Ecology Club ($500), Indian River Mosquito Control District ($400)
and members of the MANWAC ($1,150). Budget details are included in
the attached proposal, and a break down of in-kind services is
provided in the attached table.
As indicated, both projects will benefit the county through
enhancement of the Indian River Lagoon and its shoreline. To
obtain funding for these projects, however, the Board of County
Commissioners must authorize execution of the attached interlocal
agreement. By committing the SJRWMD to fund the referenced
projects and committing the County to provide in-kind services as
reflected in the project proposals, the agreement will ensure that
the projects are completed as proposed. For those reasons, staff
feels that the Board should authorize execution of the attached
agreement.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners authorize
the execution of the attached interlocal agreement for the funding
of the spoil island and shoreline enhancement projects as described
in the attached proposal.
Community Development Director Bob Keating explained the
interlocal agreement was received on Friday, March 20, and some
minor legal problems were not resolved until March 23. The only
cost to the County will be in-kind services by volunteers and
County staff.
Commissioner Scurlock asked, and Director Keating confirmed
that the funds have been budgeted by the St. Johns River Water
Management District (SJRWMD), and the interlocal agreement will be
presented to the SJRWMD Governing Board on April 7, 1992 for
execution.

Commissioner Bowman asked about the Sebastian portion, and
Chief of Environmental Planning Roland DeBlois was not sure but
would get that information from the Surface Water Improvement and
Management Program Coordinator Dirk Schmidt and pass it on to her.
He stated that because of the short notice, staff has not received
a proposal through the Sebastian Watershed Action Committee for
this year.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously authorized
the Chairman to execute the interlocal agreement for
funding of the spoil island and shoreline
enhancement projects as set out in staffs memo.

APPROVAL OF PUBLIC HEARING DATES TO CONSIDER LDR AMENDMENTS

DATE: March 16, 1992
SUBJECT: Approval of Hearing Dates for Two Evening Board Hearings
to Consider LDR Amendments
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular
meeting of March 24, 1992.
BACKGROUND:
Since October 1, 1990, the Florida Statutes has required two
evening meetings of the Board of County Commissioners whenever
amendments to the Land Development Regulations (LDRs) are to be
considered and adopted. To minimize the number of required evening
meetings, staff has limited the number of times the LDR's are
amended. This has been done by holding proposed LDR amendments
until a sufficient number of amendments exist.
13
MAR 2 4 199
I
QOOK U ) Fr+.6t
At this time, there are several proposed LDR amendments which now
require consideration and action by the Board of County
Commissioners. Many of these LDR changes have been - initiated by
county staff and the Professional Services Advisory Committee
(PSAC); others were initiated by an individual applicant. Both the
PSAC and the Planning and Zoning Commission have now considered and
made recommendations to the Board regarding the proposed LDR
amendments. To proceed with the review and approval process for
the amendments, the Board must now set dates and times for the
required two evening public hearings.
ANALYSIS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The proposed amendments were considered by the Planning and Zoning
Commission at its March 12, 1992 meeting. The Commission has made
recommendations to the Board regarding approval or denial of the
proposals. The Board must now hold its meetings. State
requirements mandate seven day notice (newspaper advertisement)
prior to the first meeting, five day notice prior to the second
meeting, and at least two weeks between the two meetings. The
meetings must be held after 5:00 p.m.
Although most of the proposed amendments are non -controversial, two
sets of proposals will require significant discussion: the "Graves
Brothers" paving waiver proposal and the ;O'Haire/Hedin self-
service storage proposal. One set of hearing dates which would
comply with the state requirements is:
MEETING
DATE
TIME
1. Tuesday, April 71 1992 5:01 p.m.
2. Tuesday, April 21, 1992 5:01 p.m.
The Board may establish any other dates that meet state
requirements.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board establish meeting dates for the two
evening public hearings required to consider and adopt the proposed
LDR amendments.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird,
Commissioner Scurlock,
the Board
SECONDED by
unanimously
established public hearing dates on April 8 and
April 22, 1992, commencing at 5:01 p.m., to consider
and adopt the proposed LDR amendments.

Dean, I met with Henry Muller and Charles Cox of the Coalition for the
Homeless of Indian River County, Inc. to discuss the generalized terms of
the lease between the County and the Coalition.
The main issues for Board consideration are summarized below:
I. Rental Price - your position has been that inasmuch as roof repair is
estimated to cost $18,000.00, to be absorbed by the County, the rental
price for the facility should be increased from $2.00 per square foot to
$3.00 per square foot to reflect this additional expense to the County.
The Coalition believes that there are only a couple of leaks at the
inside corners of the roof which could be patched for $1,000.00. They
propose to undertake these minor repairs and accept the building in "as
is condition" with respect to the roof, and be responsible for any other
and further roof repairs during the 3 -year term of the lease, in
consideration of the reduced rental of $2.00 per square foot.
Paragraph 13c of the lease provides for this election, although it can be
stricken should the Board so desire.
2. The Coalition requested outside painting and pest control be undertaken
by the County. You had indicated that they would assume all
maintenance responsibility, inside, outside, lawns, etc.
3. The Coalition requests the opportunity to post signs. I have made
provision for this, subject to County sign regulations and normal
permitting, in paragraph 6k of the lease.
4. There is a distinction between minor maintenance and alterations and
major maintenance and alterations. The Coalition will be responsible for
minor maintenance and alterations which is herein defined as alterations
which do not involve bearing walls and structural changes or whole
re -roofing. Major and minor changes would be undertaken only with
prior approval of the County after submittal of plans. The County
would be responsible for major maintenance items should they be
subsequently approved by the County Commission.
5. I am told one of the subtenants, the Mental Health Association, has a
lease which does not expire until July 1st. The Coalition feels that
they will need access to the building prior to that time in order for the
architect to lay out the floor plan and to do the minor remodeling,
fixing up and cleaning up of the building. The lease is structured so
that they may take possession on April 1st or as soon as they insurance
required by our Risk Management Office is in place. However, rental
for the first year would not begin until July 1st, although the full
years rental would be spread over three-quarters rather than the four
quarters as will be the case in the second and third years of the lease.

MAR 2 4 1992 Roos
11AR 24,1992,
6. The Coalition has requested that the other tenants have an opportunity
to cure any default in payment of rent by the Coalition. This is
provided for in paragraphs 8c and 12 of the lease.
Should the Board decide to approve the lease in its present form, a
resolution as attached must be passed pursuant to Florida Statute 125.38.
Deputy County Attorney Will Collins further explained that the
Coalition for the Homeless of Indian River, County, Inc., would be
the Lessee and propose to have subtenants within the building, but
we would look directly to the Coalition for rental payments and
they would be responsible to collect from subtenants.
Chairman Eggert drew the Board's attention to Paragraph 13.d.,
and suggested the last sentence should be changed to read, "The
premises shall not be utilized for purposes of showering, locker
facilities, meals or overnight stays by those people of Indian
River County who are the clientele of lessee or sublessees, with
the exception of coffee and doughnuts, when and if people visit the
offices to avail themselves of any services which are available on
premises.,,
Commissioner Bowman was concerned about the condition of the
roof and was not sure patching would do the job.
County Administrator Jim Chandler agreed the roof was a major
concern because a leaking roof could cause damage to the interior
of the building. He advised that the superintendent of Buildings
and Grounds inspected the roof and conferred with a representative
of Lucas Roofing, and they believe the roof can be repaired and
would last for the duration of the lease.
Commissioner Scurlock pointed out that at the end of this
lease the County may try to dispose of this asset and he would hate
to invest $18,000 in a new roof and then see someone buy the
property and demolish the building. He was in favor of delaying
replacement of the roof as long as we have assurances that the
repair will last for three years
Henry Muller, Director of the Coalition, confirmed that the
roof has one area that needs to be patched, and the roofer will
patch it and maintain it for the Coalition for three years without
charge. He assured the Board there will be no damage to the
building as a result of any leaks.
Commissioner Bird led discussion regarding responsibility for
maintenance and repairs, and Mr. Muller confirmed that excepting
major structural items, all normal repairs and maintenance will be
borne by the Coalition.
Attorney Collins further explained that in differentiating
between major and minor repairs, the distinction is that any items
that are necessary for the structural integrity of the building
would be the County's responsibility but any minor maintenance,
16
would be the County's responsibility but any minor maintenance,
repairs, upkeep or interior remodeling would be the responsibility
of the Coalition.
Commissioner Bird asked about air conditioning, and Mr. Muller
advised that there is a master unit for the bulk of the building
and a subunit for the area which is designated as the drop-in
center that is independent of the major unit, and he is asking the
County to check out the systems for assurance that they are in good
operating condition, and the Coalition will take it from there.
Chairman Eggert asked about outside painting and pest control,
and Mr. Muller confirmed those are the responsibility of the
Coalition.
Commissioner Bird commented that the $2 versus $3 per square
foot rental is a difference of about $6,000 a year. While he
realized these agencies work on a limited budget, he felt that $3
per square foot rental is more reasonable for the value of the
building and the County's investment in the building and property,
and is more comparable to market rent. He recognized these are
charitable, non-profit organizations but there are other such
agencies out in the County that are leasing space at close to
market rent.
Mr. Muller responded that the rental is for the total building
but this building is only about 65 to 70 percent efficient. About
25 percent of the space is absorbed in corridors or restrooms,
which is unavoidable in any building, but along with all the
maintenance and operating expenses, it adds dollars per square
foot, making it equal to other facilities without any waste space.
Only 10 percent of the space will be for the Coalition and 90
percent of the usable area is for the other agencies.
Attorney Collins stated there were other points which were
brought up by Mr. Muller after the lease was drafted. The proposed
resolution lists the non-profit groups that would be subtenants in
this facility and included in the list is the Ministerial
Association of Indian River County. However, they would not be
subtenants but would only use the conference room once a month.
The Coalition asked that a group called Voluntary Action Center be
added to that list of subtenants. The Coalition also requested the
addition of the phrase, "plus other related non-profit agencies,
subject to prior approval by the County, 11 but Attorney Collins felt
that language is too open-ended. Furthermore, the lease provides
that it can be amended by written agreement of both parties if they
want to substitute tenants.
Attorney Collins addressed the subject of the first year's
rent. Some of the tenants proposed for this building have leases
17
ut
MAR 4 1992
Fr- 11 21 4 1992 -1
BOOK
which will not expire until July 1st and the Coalition asked that
the lease be drafted so that the rental payments would not begin
until July 1st even though they would have access to the building
as soon as they provided insurance so they could do remodeling over
the first three months. The lease was structured so that rental
would begin July 1st but 12 months' worth of rent would be
compressed into a 9 -month period. The Coalition asked that the
first 3 months' rent be waived while they are in the remodeling
process and cannot utilize the building, and the Board will have to
decide whether to waive the first three months' rent.
Attorney Collins felt there was also a question about whether
we are to provide fully operational air conditioning and heating at
the $2 per square foot rental.
Chairman Eggert asked, and General Services Director Sonny
Dean responded that when we moved out of the building everything
was in good operating condition. Mr. Muller confirmed that his
maintenance people also stated that the air conditioning system is
in operating condition. He is not asking for an upgrade of the
systems but he stated that the two access doors to the air
conditioning room are deteriorated and need to be replaced.
The Board thought that was fair and Commissioner Bird agreed,
but he felt if there was a major additional expense, we may have to
readdress the price. Chairman Eggert clarified, and the Board
members agreed, that the air conditioning and heating systems will
be included "as is.11
Attorney Collins pointed to Paragraph 11 of the lease which
allows the County to have a lien against all furnishings of the
lessee if they fail to pay rent. This would put a burden on the
subtenants in that if the Coalition fails to pay rent, a subtenant
potentially could be subject to a lien on the furniture and
equipment that they brought from other places. Attorney Collins
felt there were other protections in the lease, but he preferred to
keep the second sentence of Paragraph 11 about the County's rights
of foreclosure.
Attorney Collins led discussion regarding Paragraph 3.a., the
timing of rental payments, and Paragraph 3.d., the security
deposit, and the conclusion was that rental payments would be
monthly and the security deposit would be waived. After
discussion, the Board agreed to waive the rent for April through
June.
Mr. Muller commented that United Way is going to be there
filming the whole process. They see this as a community project
and a center for related agencies, and while United Way is not
funding any part of this project, they think it is a good project.

building along with a list of the Board of Directors of the
Coalition for the Homeless of Indian River County, Inc.
Commissioner Bird asked and County Administrator Chandler
confirmed that the County has no need for this facility for the
next three years.
Chairman Eggert reminded the Coalition that there have been
comments about disabled people having trouble getting into the
building because of inadequate ramping. Mr. Muller agreed that
this building may not conform to the requirements at the present
time, and even if they are not obligated, they may want to build
another ramp anyway.

Recreation Director Callahan further explained that the fee
schedule categories are used by the schools in our county for their
school lunch program and that fee schedule is used in determining
the amount of payment due from each child. Only the categories are
used because funding for the food for the summer program is
funneled from the State Department of Education to our local school
board and the school board's food service manager handles the
finances for the food. The total anticipated revenue of $56,000 is
based on the minimum fee of $2 per day from 700 campers for 40
days. There will be some campers who will pay a higher fee but
there are also some who will be on scholarships.
Commissioner Bowman asked for an explanation of the funding
account numbers.
County Administrator Chandler advised we have funds from both
general and MSTU funds. The $36,000 was budgeted for this program
and the other amounts are savings from the delay in the opening of
the South County Park, such as utilities for the park and
professional services fees for umpires, referees, et cetera. He
further explained that this is an attempt by the Recreation
Director to maximize the budgeted funds to avoid a budget
amendment. He further pointed out that next fiscal year she will
be relying strictly on the $36,000 budgeted funds plus the
generated revenue from the summer program. He mentioned that
previously our $36,000 was matched by a similar amount from the
school board/but this year they decided not to participate.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved
the Recreation Department's Summer Program 1992 and
use of funds as outlined in staff's recommendation.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
The Kiwanis Club of Vero Beach has offered to donate $1000
for the paving of the existing basketball court at
Kiwanis-Hobart Park. This donation will fund material cost.

the Community Development Dept. and may have to acquire a
SJRWMD Stormwater Permit. It is questionable whether the
court paving can be completed by June, 1992.

Several years ago the county purchased from Blackburn and Mobley a
parcel of right-of-way for the widening of 12th
square foot. . Street at $1.38 per
The owners came to the county with an offer to sell additional
right-of-way from the western portion of the same parcel at this

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. UW -91 -06 -DS
RESOLUTIONS I AND II
BACKGROUND
On April 9, 1991, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved the petition for water service on Charlotte
Avenue/62nd Drive, south of Route 60. Design service has been
completed by the Department of Utility Services staff. We are now
ready to begin the assessment process associated with this project.
(See attached agenda item and minutes.)
ANALYSIS
Attached please find Resolutions I and II for the assessment
project. The- cost per square foot is $0.07652476678, and the
project will serve the thirteen properties on 62nd Drive.
Seven of the thirteen lots in this project are substandard or
"undersized," according to Indian River County's Comprehensive Plan
and the County Public Health Unit, Division of Environmental Health,
which require that new lots utilizing well and septic systems be a
minimum of one-half acre. If served by a public water system, the
lot may be reduced to one-quarter acre in size. Lots not meeting
these minimum standards are called "undersized lots."'

BACKGROUND:
During its design and accompanying survey, it was determined that
certain easements would be required for construction of the subject
project. During the time of easement acquisition, a water system
analysis, which recommended revised line sizes, was completed.
ANALYSIS:
The Department was advised that easements were not going to be received
by the County, and Post, Buckley, Schuh & Jernigan, Inc. (PBS&J) was
directed to delete a certain portion of the water line from the project
and .expended man-hours in the process.. Later, the easement was
unexpectedly received, and PBS&J was instructed to reinstate that
portion that had been deleted.
PBS&J was then directed to revise the plans in accordance with the
recommended downsizing in the North County Water System Preliminary
Analysis. Costs incurred are as follows:

MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Wheeler, to approve the expenditure of
$2,554 for additional services from Post, Buckley,
Schuh & Jernigan on the North County Water System,
Phase I, as recommended by staff.
County Attorney Vitunac addressed the following question to
Commissioner Scurlock: Would any past or present relationship with
Post Buckley Schuh & Jernigan cause you to have a conflict of
interest on this vote.
Commissioner Scurlock answered in the negative and inquired if
the question would be asked of each Commissioner.
Attorney Vitunac explained that he had heard rumors only
about Commissioner Scurlock.
Chairman Eggert asked if any Commissioner had a conflict of
interest regarding the North County Water System, Phase I.
Commissioner Scurlock commented that he was getting a little
tired of that.
Attorney Vitunac further explained that he was hearing by way
of the newspaper and depositions that when there were rumors
previously regarding the Guettler issue, Commissioner Scurlock
criticized the Commission and County Attorney for sitting mute and
not asking the question, and now he was asking the question. If
the Board so wished, he would not ask the question in the future.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION.
It was voted on and carried unanimously..

UPDATED MASTER PLAN WORK - WATER, WASTEWATER, AND
EFFLUENT DISPOSAL
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. MD -91 -18 -ST
On December 17, 1991, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved the selection of Brown and Caldwell to update
and coordinate our existing Master Plans (see attached meeting
minutes). We have now completed negotiations relative to scope and
fees associated with these services. Please see the attached
proposed contract with Brown and Caldwell.
ANALYSIS
The basic purposes of this work effort are as follows:
1. Integrate the previous Master Plan efforts undertaken
independently of each other.
2. Consider changes in regulatory constraints implemented since
the previous plans were done.
3. Consider the growth restrictions imposed by the State -mandated
concurrency requirements.
4. Account for the impact of the City of Sebastian's decision to
provide utility service.
5. Establish routing corridors and establish timing, sizing, and
phasing (single line or parallel lines) of pipeline
installation.
For a detailed breakdown of services, please see Section 4.0 (Scope
of Services), Page 5 of 19 through 16 of 19, Exhibit A of the
attached contract. The cost for these services is broken up into
three sections. The first is directly related to Tasks 1 - 13
outlined in the agreement and is for a total cost of $156,859.00.
The second cost element is for continuing services to be used for
specific information inquiries over the Master Plan scope and is in
the amount of $12,500.00. The final cost element is for other
direct expenses and is in the amount of $16,104.00. All services
will be billed on a monthly basis with a very specific cost
breakdown for County review. The total amount of funding being
requested for this project is $185,500.00 and shall be funded from
the impact fee fund.
RECOMN�NDATION
The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the
Board of County Commissioners approve the aforementioned contract
With Brown and Caldwell.
38
F-�
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bowman, to approve and authorize the
Chairman to execute the contract with Brown and
Caldwell Consultants in the amount of $185,500.00
for an update of our Master Water, Wastewater and
Effluent Disposal Plan, as recommended by staff.
Commissioner Bowman wondered if projections can be based on a
lower per capita demand, because we should encourage conservation
of potable water and work for a lower per capita demand of potable
water and in that way cut down on the wastewater stream.
Director Pinto pointed out that the rate structure encourages
potable water conservation to reduce the demand which may allow us
to reduce the size of our systems and that would result in an
adjusted impact fee. This study will make comparisons of potable
water conservation and resulting pipe sizes, then balance out the
economics and make recommendations on that basis.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION.
It was voted on and carried unanimously.
SAID CONTRACT
IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF CLERK TO THE BOARD
CATHOLIC CHARITIES GRANT APPLICATION
Chairman Eggert recounted that in 1990 she wrote a letter of
support and last year Chairman Bird did likewise, but those letters
were before they had a site plan. Now their site plan is completed
and they requested a letter of support on that basis.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously authorized
the Chairman to send a letter supporting Catholic
Charities' Application to the State of Florida
Health and Rehabilitative Services for a Federal
Emergency Grant for the Homeless.
