Dear Commis er Egge6--�4
I have been contacted by Kay Moran and asked to support a five week
Program provided this summer for "at risk students". The program was housed
at Dodgertown Elementary and reports indicate it was very successful.
Approximately 25 children benefited from the program.
The reason we were asked to support the program, through our Drug Seizure
Fund, was to underwrite the cost as these funds would be removed from other
vital programs if we were unable to assist.
I would ask the County Commission to place on the Consent Agenda the
expenditure of $2,920.40 in support of this program so the school system can
be reimbursed. Once this is placed on the agenda, I will notify Kay Moran
who will be willing to answer any questions you may have.
Enclosed are copies of the information regarding the program. If I can be of
further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. _
Sincerely,
R. • ."Tim" Dobeck, Sheriff
Indian River County
Commissioner Scurlock asked, and County Attorney Charles
Vitunac assured him that this program meets the criteria for using
these funds.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously (3-0,
Chairman Eggert being absent) approved the
expenditure of $2,920.40 in support of the program
for "At Risk Students," to reimburse the school
system, as recommended by Sheriff Dobeck.

REVISED BY-LAWS
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular
meeting of September 1, 1992.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
On February 21, 1991, the Transportation Disadvantaged Local
Coordinating Board (TDLCB) adopted a set of by-laws, as per the
"LCB's Operating Guidelines" adopted by the state Transportation
Disadvantaged Commission on January 10th., 1990.
Recently, the state Transportation Disadvantaged Commission changed
its rules to require that local coordinating boards include one
representative from the Department of Elder Affairs and one
representative from the Children and Youth Council. Also, the LCB
identified a need for a technical advisory committee. These
changes require an amendment to the LCB's by-laws.
On July 16, 1992, the LCB directed staff to revise the by-laws to
include new members to the membership list (section 107 of the by-
laws) as required by the Transportation Disadvantaged Commission
(TDC) and to add a section (Section 119 of the by-laws) regarding
formation of a Technical Advisory Committee.
At its meeting of August 20, 1992, the TDLCB approved the revised
by-laws with a minor change and directed the staff to forward the
by-laws to the Board of County Commissioners (the Designated
Official Planning Agency (DOPA) for transportation disadvantaged
matters) for review and concurrence prior to submittal to the State
Transportation Disadvantaged Commission.
RECOMMENDATION
The TDLCB and staff recommend

RE: PRIORITIZATION OF TD NON -SPONSORED TRIPS
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular
meeting of September 1, 1992.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
As part of recent changes to Florida Administrative Code Rule 41-2,
Transportation Disadvantaged Commission requirements, the Local
Coordinating Board (LCB) has been charged with the responsibility
of establishing priorities for providing non -sponsored
transportation disadvantaged trips that are purchased with TD trust
fund monies. Prioritization would provide the ability to spend the
limited resources (TD funds) where there is greatest need.
In May 1992, the planning staff coordinated with the Council on
Aging regarding the prioritization of trips. Subsequently, staff
received a letter indicating the COA's prioritization criteria.
While this priorization list was presented to the TDLCB for
consideration, no decision was made regarding this prioritization
list.
At its July 16, 1992 meeting, the TDLCB considered the issue of
trip prioritization. During that meeting, an alternate trip
prioritization list was considered, and staff was directed to
assess that prioritization list and schedule the issue for
consideration at the August TDLCB meeting.
The proposed trip prioritization list is presented below. Since
the July TDLCB meeting, staff has reviewed the list and coordinated
with the CTC. Based upon its analysis, staff supports the proposed
prioritization.

Once the TDLCB approves a TD trip prioritization list, it will be
the responsibility of the CTC to develop a set of procedures to
implement the prioritization list. These procedures will identify
how the prioritization list will be used in scheduling trips and
providing service.
On August 20, 1992, the TDLCB approved the above prioritization of
non -sponsored transportation disadvantaged trips list and directed
the staff to forward it to the Board of County Commissioners (the
Designated Official Planning Agency (DOPA) for transportation
disadvantaged matters) for review and concurrence, and also
directed the Community Transportation Coordinator (IRC Council on
Aging) to develop a set of procedures to implement the
prioritization list.
RECOMMENDATION
The TDLCB and staff recommend that the Board of County
Commissioners, sitting as the Designated Official Planning Agency
(DOPA), approve the above prioritization list and direct staff to
forward the prioritization list to the state Transportation
Disadvantaged Commission.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Scurlock, the Board, sitting as the
Designated Official Planning Agency, unanimously (3-
0, Chairman Eggert beinabsent) approved the
prioritization list as se forth in staff's memo,
and directed staff to forty rd said list to the State
Transportation Disadvantaged Commission.

Development Plan states that "By October, 1992, the DOPA in

Designated Official Planning Agency (DOPA) for transportation
disadvantaged matters) for review and concurrence.

The Board reviewed memo from OMB Director Joe Baird dated

TO:' - Members of the Board
of County Commissioners
DATE: August 26, 1992
SUBJECT: MISCELLANEOUS BUDGET AMENDMENT 041
CONSENT AGENDA
FROM: Joseph A. Baird
OMB Director
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
The attached budget amendment is to appropriate funding for the following:
1. On August 4, 1992 the Board of County Commissioners approved the
purchase of a mobile office trailer in the amount of $3,465.00 to be
used by the Public Works Department at construction sites. The
attached budget amendment allocates the funding.
2. On July 7, 1992, the Board of County Commissioners approved the
printing and mailing of brochures for the LAAC (Land Advisory
Acquisition Committee) to inform the voters of a bond referendum
for environmentally significant land acquisition. The budget
amendment is to allocate the funding in the amount of $9,700.00.
3. Housing Authority presently has a negative cash balance. This seems
to be caused by them not receiving a $21,124.00 recreation/culture
grant they had budgeted. Presently the budget office is estimating
the Housing Authority will need $15,000.00 to complete the year.
The attached budget amendment transfers $15,000.00 from the
General Fund Contingency for the shortfall.
4. On April 14, 1992 the Board of County Commissioners approved
funding $6,000.00 to be budgeted from the MSTU to be used to
financially support a workshop by Vision Workshop Focus on the
Future steering committee.

Dear Mr. Chandler:

ADMINISTRATOR'S
OFFICE. � 4
The United States Fish and Wildlife Service has recently acquired
property in Indian River County for both Pelican Island and Archie
Carr National Wildlife Refuges. Our policy is to provide revenue
to local governments in lieu of taxes. The amount is based on a
percentage of the appraised value.
I am pleased to announce that we have a check to present to the
County for this purpose. This is the first time the Service has
distributed this revenue sharing to Indian River County. If you
feel it would be appropriate, I would be happy to present the check
to the County Commission and give a short explanation of the
program.
If you feel it is appropriate, please advise me when you could
work it into the County Commission agenda, (after August 28th).
If you do not feel the County Commission would be interested,
please provide me a contact to send the check to.
Sincerely,
Dorn Whitmore

Dear Sir or Madam: LA -Payment to Counties/Parishes
The Fish and Wildlife Service is pleased to present Indian River count
County/Parish its refuge revenue sharing payment in the amount of $665.00
This payment for fiscal year 1991 (October 1, 1990 through September 30, 1991) is
authorized by the Refuge Revenue Sharing Act of 1978, Public Law 95-469. Funds
credited to the National Wildlife Refuge Fund are derived from income generated
nationally on Service lands, such as oil and gas revenues, sale of timber products, gravel,
grazing receipts, and other products, and is supplemented by appropriated funds.
The Act authorizes payment to counties in which Fish and Wildlife Service -owned lands
are located, based upon the following methods of computation, whichever is greater:
(1) Three-fourths of 1 percent (0.75 percent) of the fair market (appraised)
,value of fee lands located within the county.
(2) Seventy-five cents per acre of the fee lands located within the county.
(3) Twenty-five percent of net receipts collected by the Fish and Wildlife
Service for certain activities permitted on fee lands located within the
county.
This year's fund did not contain sufficient receipts to make full payment to counties as
computed above.' Although Congress, as authorized, did appropriate additional funds, the
amount appropriated was not sufficient to provide for a full entitlement payment. The
amount of payment for fiscal year 1991 represents 89.6 percent of the total entitlement.
Should you have any questions about this payment, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely yours,
James W. Pulliam, Jr.
Regional Director
Vice Chairman Bowman thanked Mr. Whitmore and she stated that
we look forward to seeing him in the future.

the Earman property (Parcel I.D. No. 09 33 39 00001,D160 00004.0)
was reviewed with the Planning Department.
The north 264.031± along the west side of 46th Avenue is not likely
buildable due to 25 -foot setbacks, front and rear. Also, all septic
tanks must be at least 75 feet from water/lakes.
Deleting the non -buildable area in the amount of 40,405 square feet
from the original proposed assessment of 138,284 square feet would
reduce the assessed area to 97,879 square feet (approximately 2.25
acres). This would reduce the Earman property assessment by
$5,027.97 and increase the other properties in the assessment as
shown on the attached schedule.
RECOMMENDATION
Analyzing the portion of the property not likely buildable, and in
consideration that the Earman family have offered to provide a deed
restriction which would not allow further development, if the Board
of County Commissioners decides upon this adjustment in the
assessment, the Department would recommend such deed restriction.
The effect on the attached assessment roll is as follows:

Utility Services Director Terry Pinto advised that the
decision to reduce the square footage from the Earman property was
made after discussion with the Planning Department.
Commissioner Scurlock asked for clarification regarding the
Earman property being serviced from an existing water line, and why
that decision was not made originally.
Director Pinto explained that after removing the undevelopable
portion, the part that would receive service is blocked from the
lake side, and the water line could not be installed from that
direction. The revised property arrangement has access for a water
line from 8th Street.
Director Pinto stated that staff could not find anything
special about the Gallagher property. Following the Board's
direction, staff analyzed the possibility of removing this property
from the assessment roll and concluded that the water line is
necessary. If the Gallagher property is removed from the
assessment roll, the assessments to the other people in the project
would be raised substantially.
Fred Gallagher stated that it is his opinion, as it was two
weeks ago, that he is being over -assessed for this water line. He
felt he will never get benefit equal to the assessment of $12,000.
Mr. Gallagher stated that his original request was to exclude the
properties north of 10th Street. In the alternative, he asked that
his assessment be done by using the 150 -foot rate as was used for
his neighbors' assessments. He pointed out that his 3.9 -acre
parcel was assessed at $12,000, while his neighbor's 18 -acre parcel
was assessed at $13,000.
Lengthy discussion ensued regarding various methods of
calculating assessments as well as the necessity for this water
line to be constructed.
Edwin Potter, 4720 10th Street, stated that he wrote a letter
to the Vice Chairman to express his feelings about the assessment
but never received a response. He also stated that he and his
neighbors on the north side of 10th Street were not part of the
petition for this water line. There are five property owners on
the north side of 10th Street and four property owners on the south
side of 10th Street who are affected by this assessment and over
2/3 of them signed a petition saying they did not want that line
constructed. Mr. Potter reported that he had conversations with
Mr. Chastain and Mr. Pinto and they told him the line was needed to
make a loop to be able to flush the lines and because it was part
of the master plan, but Mr. Potter could not understand why there
has to be a water line there. when he and his neighbors do not want
it.
32
Joseph Earman, 4375 9th Lane, stated that he was given the
information regarding his adjustment five minutes before the
meeting and he asked for a one-week postponement to allow him the
opportunity to discuss the adjustment with his family and their
attorney.
Discussion ensued regarding postponement, and the Board agreed
that a one-week continuance would give staff further opportunity to
analyze the assessments.
Attorney Vitunac advised that all interested parties should be
present, so the Board could continue the discussion for one week.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously (3-0,
Chairman Eggert being absent) continued discussion
of this item to 9:05 A. M. on September 8, 1992.

Public Hearing for the Paving & Drainage Improvements to
the Roads in Floral Park and Ranch Estates Subdivisions
August 13, 1992
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
On July 28, 1992 the Board of County Commissioners adopted
Resolution No. 92-133 providing for certain paving and drainage
improvements to the roads in Floral Park and Ranch -Estates
Subdivisions.
The County Public Works Department has received a new petition for
a public improvement assessment for road paving and drainage
improvements for the roads in Floral Park Subdivision and Ranch
Estates Subdivision. This petition was received in June, 1992 and
supersedes the original petition. There are presently 23 homes in
Floral Park and Ranch Estates Subdivisions. Owners of 16 homes
have signed the petition making 70% of the property owners, who
actually live in the benefited area, and 37% of the total square
footage of the benefited area, in favor of having these roads
paved. They are also requesting an extension of the payment
schedule from 2 years to 5 years.
On July 28, 1992, the Board of County Commissioners -adopted another
Resolution 92-134 setting the date and time for a Public Hearing to
discuss the advisability, cost and amount of the assessment against
each property owner. This hearing is scheduled for September 1,
1992.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Board of County Commissioners approve the
assessment roll, and confirming resolution with changes, if any,
made after input at the September 1, 1992 Public Hearing. Revised
confirming resolution and assessment roll will be forwarded to
Chairman of the Board for signature. The Assessment Roll and
assessment plat are on file with the Clerk to the Board of County
Commissioner's office.

Public Works Director Jim Davis advised that earlier in the
year staff was requested to and did communicate with the property
owners in the subdivision to consider the possibilities of reducing
the cost of the project. The assessment roll shows a cost per
square foot of approximately $.16; a typical lot of 12,000 square
feet would be assessed approximately $2,000 for road paving and
drainage improvements. Director Davis pointed out a change in the
assessment roll regarding the property owned by Plant Foods, Inc.,
which is commercial property and will not connect to any of the
roads in the subdivision. That property was removed from the
assessment roll and the Board agreed to pick up the funding of that
assessment. The property owner agreed to donate right-of-way for
the 56th Avenue paving.
37
BOOK 87 FADE 442
BOOK 87 FACE 443
The Vice Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if
anyone wished to be heard in this matter.
The following property owners in Floral Park and Ranch Estates
Subdivision were opposed to the assessment for paving the roads:
Godfrey Gipson, 4136 57th Court, stated that paving was
requested some 9 years ago, when the economy was in a stable
condition, whereas at this time some of the property owners are out
of work, some have retired, and the economic situation is bad. He
pointed out that the most recent petition had the names of 15 home
owners, but there are other home owners and lot owners who are
opposed to the petition paving and who will have to pay the
assessment if this is passed. He also objected to several exempted
properties. Mr. Gipson stated he had a petition asking that this
project be delayed until times are better for the people. He
clarified that the petition he was submitting did not come from the
home owners' association but rather from individual home owners and
was a result of discussions between home owners and County staff
and staff's request for a more current petition.
Joyce Broxton, 4325 57th Court, speaking for herself and her
husband Donald, agreed we all want improved streets but, they feel
this assessment would put too much of a burden on her family's
financial condition.
Teresa Henderson, 4135 57th Avenue, stated that she is semi-
retired and in ill health and would have no way of paying the
assessment.
Dupree Dawkins, 5636 42nd Street, stated that he has two
children in school and cannot afford this assessment.
William Wilson, 4116 57th Court, objected to exempting the
commercial property because no matter which side of the road, that
owner is going to receive benefit from the paving. Mr. Wilson
wanted to delay the project because of the bad economic times.
Annie Jenkins, 4520 38th Court in Gifford, owner of property
in the subdivision, was concerned that people are not able to pay
for the project.
Arthur James Harris, 1850 38th Place, representing lots 11 and
12 in Ranch Estates, urged the Board to defer the project.
Hazel Hudson, 4255 57th Avenue, speaking for herself and her
husband, Harry, stated they have lived there for over 19 years and
have no problem getting into their house. Her main objection was
that the assessment is too high and she asked whether staff could
work on lowering that assessment.
The following property owners in Floral Park and Ranch Estates
Subdivision were in favor of the assessment for paving the roads:
38
Leonard A. Wilson, Sr., 4205 57th Court, explained that the
petition submitted by Mr. Gipson was not discussed by the members
of the home owners' association and that the petition which was
officially submitted by the home owners' association, which was
signed by 71% of the home owners who live in the area, should be
considered by the Board.
Don Reagan, 5685 41st Street, described how after a 15 -minute
rain she can hardly get into her garage. She wanted to improve her
community and felt if it is delayed now, it may be another 9 years
before it comes up again.
Andrew Jefferson, 4256 57th Avenue, was concerned that if the
project is deferred now, other problems will arise to cause
opposition in the future. He urged the Board"to take a hard look
at it and consider what the residents are dealing with on a daily
basis.
Ruth Jefferson, 4236 57th Avenue, agreed that staff has worked
to present a rate as low as possible, and pointed out that interest
rates are low right now. She realized that people do not want to
be burdened with additional costs at this time but it may cost more
in two years. She stated that the streets are muddy, and she
wished the Board would consider those who live in homes in that
area and have to deal with the situation.
Ernestine Williams, 4125 56th Avenue, thought the paving will
enhance the value of the subdivision and if it is delayed, it may
be 3 or 4 years before the roads will be paved.
Rudolph Gipson, 4155 57th Avenue, asked how staff arrived at
71%.
Director Davis explained that of the 21 homes in the
subdivision, 15 home owners petitioned for the paving. There are
more lots that do not have homes built on them. When the petition
was submitted in 1986, 51% of the property owners signed that
petition. He estimated that presently owners of 37% of the total
land assessed in the area have signed the petition for paving; 71%
of the owners of those lots with homes on them are in favor of the
paving.
Commissioner Bird asked if a health or safety situation is
driving this project.
Director Davis responded that staff is recommending this
paving project for several reasons: because the roads within this
subdivision connect to Kings Highway on the west, and unpaved road
networks tend to track sand and dirt onto the paved road system; it
is more cost effective in the life cycle to pave the roads rather
than continuing to maintain them with the grader; stormwater runoff
is cleaner from paved roads because it does not carry sand and
39
11992
Bou 87 FACE 444
BOOK 87 PAGE 445
pollutants into the drainage system; this project area is bordered
on the south by 41st Street, which is a collector road; -and this
project is within the urban service area which we are doing our
best to get paved. Mr. Davis continued that it is fairly normal
for the owners of vacant lots in a subdivision not to favor
petition paving because they do not live there, but a community
will develop in a nicer way with a paved road system.
Commissioner Bird felt that the burden may be greater on the
owners of a vacant lot because they may have another house they
have to maintain and they have the dream of building a home on that
vacant lot, but they cannot afford to build the home, let alone pay
to have the road paved.
Director Davis explained that the 5 -year payback plan was
suggested to ease the burden.
Teresa Henderson returned to the microphone and asked if the
road will be dug up to install water lines after the road is paved.
She felt the water is more important than the paving.
Director Davis assured the property owners and the Board that
Public Works coordinates with the Utilities Department and if water
lines are imminent we will "sleeve" it and there will not be any
tearing up of the roads.
County Engineer Roger Cain explained that at the last meeting
with staff, those home owners who attended were in favor of the
paving. The situation is that the people who live there and have
to contend with the situation would like to see it paved. Staff
have worked on the costs and cut the costs substantially and
increased the length of time to pay back. Mr. Cain clarified that
although that one property on 56th Avenue was deleted from the
benefitted area, that portion of the road will be paved within this
project.
Director Davis added that the property owner is donating 25
feet of right-of-way, which is probably worth $15,000, so he is
contributing to the project even though he will not connect to the
road.
Vice Chairman Bowman led discussion regarding the timing of
this project if it were deferred.
Director Davis felt it could be brought up again fairly
quickly.
Mr. Cain explained that Public Works would apply for the St.
Johns River Water Management District permit, which is good for 5
years, and he estimated that it would be a minimum of 2 years
before this paving project would come up again.
Teresa Henderson asked,forclarification on the commercial
property which was being exempted from the assessment and about the
40
M M -
percentages of 25%, 50% and 75% which the County covers on paving
projects.
Director Davis clarified that the owner of the property on the
east side of 56th Avenue will donate 25 feet of right-of-way in
lieu of paying an assessment, and the Board of County Commissioners
will pay $12,000 from other revenue sources so that portion of the
assessment will not be passed on to the other owners in the
subdivision. He further explained that for roads that are entirely
within a subdivision and used by residents within the subdivision
the County pays 25% and the owners pay 75% of the cost of paving.
If the road is a collector road which serves many more people, and
many more cars travel that road than just the residents, the County
pays 50% of the cost of that paving.
Discussion ensued regarding the details involved in deferring
the project for 6 months until the home owners could come back with
more positive feelings from a larger percentage of the owners.
Director Davis assured the Board that there is flexibility,
but he could not promise that the assessment roll would stay as it
is because the cost of materials may go up. Director Davis stated
that staff would like some direction as to when the Board would
reconsider this project; would it be when the petition is at a
certain percentage, or when there is more positive feeling from the
owners, or is the Board asking for some other criteria.
Andrew Jefferson commented that if the Board waits until there
is more positive feeling from the property owners, that may never
happen. He pointed out that if an owner lives in another part of
the county and owns a vacant lot in this subdivision, they would be
opposed to the paving project, while the folks that live there want
their community upgraded.
Director Davis stated that this assessment is in line with
other assessments we have been doing, and lower than some. He
explained that the lots have deep frontage and some owners have
more than one lot.
Bill Koolage, 11 Vista Gardens Trail, suggested a 10 -year
payback.
Vice Chairman Bowman explained that a 5 -year payback was
chosen to try to keep the interest costs as low as possible.
It was determined that no one else wished to be heard and the
Vice Chairman closed the public hearing.

MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock to adopt
the Resolution confirming the assessment roll.
THE MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Vice Chairman Bowman, to defer the project for one
year, during which time the project should be
reconsidered and the petition revalidated and new
cost estimates be established.
THE VICE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION.
It was voted on and failed by a 2-1 vote,
Commissioner Scurlock voting in opposition.
County Attorney Charles Vitunac advised that since only 3
members of the Commission were present, the vote must be unanimous
to carry a Motion. The Board could attempt another motion, or
continue this item to the next regular meeting, at which time there
may be more Commissioners present.
Commissioner Scurlock felt that the paving should be done, he
did not want to delay it for a year, and he suggested the item<be
rescheduled for a time after the new Board would be seated when 5
Commissioners would be present.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously (3-0,
Chairman Eggert being absent) adopted Resolution 92-
176* setting a second public hearing at 9:05 A. M.
on November 24, 1992 at which the owners of property
in Floral Park Subdivision and Ranch Estates
Subdivision and other interested persons may appear
and be heard on the advisability of making paving
and drainage improvements to said property.

County Administrator
FROM: Doug Wright, Director
Department of Emergency Services
DATE: August 19, 1992
SUBJECT: Approval of FY 92-93 EMS Grant
It is respectfully requested the information contained herein be
given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at

The grant program is an innovative process which enables EMS
agencies to enhance EMS systems through the Board of County
Commissioners. The EMS Grant has been prepared describing program
needs and proposing grant objectives as well as time frames for
completion.
Although submission of the grant is being undertaken, the State EMS
Office has advised staff that the grant funds may be fully
distributed, partially distributed, or not distributed at all to
county governments. The governing factor is dependant upon the
financial status of the State after October 1, 1992, and actions of
the Governor. The grant application is being submitted in the hope
that the funds will be released to local governments and having the
application on file will assure Indian River County of its
allocation if'the funds are distributed.
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS
The county grant funds are derived from surcharges on various
traffic violations. Funding in the amount of $35,358.03 has been
allocated to Indian River County for FY 92-93. The grant funds
will be utilized as indicated in the grant for equipment and
services to improve and expand the Advanced Life Support EMS pre-
hospital system.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the FY 92-93 EMS Grant and resolution
to purchase the equipment and services as noted in attachments.
Staff- further recommends that the Board of County Commissioners
authorize the Chairman to execute the necessary documents to obtain
funds from -HRS in the amount of $35,358.03 and authorize budget
amendments as required to receive and expend the grant funds.

RETAINAGE
BACKGROUND:
The agreement with the contractor for the Sludge/Septage Facility
states that ten (10) percent of all monies earned by the Contractor -
shall be retained by the County until the project is totally
completed as specified, and accepted by the County except that after
50 percent of the work has been satisfactorily completed, the
Contractor Administrator may reduce the retainage to 5 percent of
all monies earned (see attached).
ANALYSIS:
The contractor, Poole & Kent, has completed 50% of the project and
requests that his retainage be reduced to 5% of all monies earned in
accordance with paragraph 5.2 of his agreement with the County
(letter from CDM attached).
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends approval
of the retainage reduction from 10% to 5% of monies earned.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by

DIRECTOR OF UTIL SERVICES
STAFFED AND

ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER

SUBJECT: SLUDGE/SEPTAGE FACILITY
FUEL STORAGE SYSTEM
BACKGROUND:
The fuel storage system for emergency power at the Sludge/Septage
Facility is an above -ground system. During the design phase, Camp
Dresser & McKee Inc. (CDM) contacted Mr. Charles Vogt, III at the
HRS/Indian River County Public Health Unit for direction as to what
above -ground fuel storage system would best meet local and state
regulations.
In May of 1991, CDM sent a copy of the fuel storage system design to
Mr. Vogt for his review and comment. Mr. Vogt responded with a
letter containing five comments, which were incorporated into the
design.
ANALYSIS:
At a meeting with HRS on August 13, 1992, we were informed that the
regulations had changed in April of 1992, and the fuel storage
system as designed would require that rainwater collected in the
containment sump would need to be monitored for compliance with
state and federal regulations prior to discharge. This is in
accordance with Florida Department of Environmental Regulation
17-762 of the Florida Administrative Code for Above -ground Storage
Tank Systems. An enclosed fuel storage system would eliminate the
need for monitoring. A containment system for this project would
cost approximately $6,000.00 for the containment structure delivered
to the site at the Gifford Wastewater Treatment Plant and installed
on the slab provided by our prime contractor, Poole & Kent. The
contractor needs to be informed which fuel containment structure he
should construct as soon as possible to avoid delays and associated
costs (see attached letter from CDM).
RECOMMENDATION:
Because of the cost of sampling following every rainfall, as well as
potential changes in state or federal stormwater discharge
regulations in the future, the staff of the Department of Utility
Services recommends that the contractor be directed to construct the
enclosed fuel containment system at an estimated cost of $6,000.00.

BACKGROUND:
The Indian River County Board of
Grove Care Maintenance Contract
March 27, 1990, for the care an
County Grove. The contract was
months on April 1, 1991, to expire
ANALYSIS:
County Commissioners awarded the
to Arapaho Citrus Management on
d management of the Indian River
renewed for a period of eighteen
on September 30, 1992.
The Grove Care Maintenance Contract that was awarded on March 27,
1990, for one year and renewed for an additional eighteen months
will expire on September 30, 1992. Because of. the ongoing
irrigation experiment with treated wastewater by the University of
Florida, which will be completed in September 1993, we feel that it
is essential that the Grove Care Maintenance Contract be extended
for a period of one year, beginning October 1, 1992, using the
original Grove Care Maintenance Contract price of $40,160 for
equipment and labor charges (see attached letter), and to provide
the special care that is also required by the University that has
been given by the grove care company under the original contract.
The contract will expire in the same time frame of the University of
Florida experiment, and at that time, the Grove Care Maintenance
Contract will go out for bid.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the
Board of County Commissioners approve the one year contract
extension in the amount of the original contract, not to exceed
$40,160.00 for the total equipment and labor charges, plus the
material costs.

Director Keating explained that this is a request for the
Board to approve an expenditure to match federal funds to receive
a federal grant. Staff and the overall Economic Development
Committee have addressed the issue of economic development, and
because of the recession and hard times, we have been researching
potential sources of revenue. Allen Campbell of the Council of 100
and staff have been in contact with the federal government to
determine grant possibilities, and the federal people have
suggested that there is money available. The first step the County
needs to take is to do a study and better define our problems and
there are some grant funds that are available to do this study.
The federal people have suggested a total grant in the neighborhood
of $33,000, with the County's share to be $8,000 of that. They
said that by doing the study the County would be eligible for
certain kinds of grants which would be beneficial in our economic
development plans.
Commissioner Scurlock asked whether these funds were available
from tourist tax dollars.
Administrator Chandler advised that tourist tax funds would
not be applicable for this type of grant and that the funding would
come from the general fund contingency.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously (3-0,
Chairman Eggert being absent) approved the
expenditure of $8,000 for a study to define our
economic problems, as recommended by staff.
