COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS Indian River County Florida Page 9 Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final February 21, 2017 13.A 17-0190 Fellsmere Water Control District Interlocal Agreement for Maintaining Unpaved Roads Recommended Action: The County Attorney's Office recommends that the Board provide guidance as to the provision concerning additional roadways and the language on drainage responsibilities in the proposed Third Amendment. The County Attorney's Office does not recommend agreeing to the proposed drainage language, which would either cause the County to flood adjacent property owners or construct expensive stormwater treatment facilities. Attachments: Staff Report 3rd Amended Fellsmere WCD Interlocal Agreement Maintaining Unpaved Roads County Attorney Dylan Reingold provided background concerning the maintenance of unpaved roads within the Fellsmere Water Control District (FWCD). He stated that the County and FWCD have reached an impasse regarding the issue of drainage, and recommended that Fellsmere residents with concerns should attend the Drainage District meeting that is being held on March 9, 2017, at 109 N. Willow Street, Fellsmere. Chairman Flescher recalled the June 27, 2016 Workshop held at Fellsmere City Hall, concerning the maintenance of the unpaved roads. He felt that it was the consensus of the Board that the issue of grading the roads had been resolved, and that the grading of the roads would begin shortly thereafter. He stated that the constraints and legal arguments that have ensued since that time were not anticipated, and have created more liability for both the County and the land owners. Commissioner Solari echoed Chairman Flescher's comments, as he also felt that the discussions in Fellsmere had resulted in agreements on a number of items from both sides. He expressed his disappointment about the fact that the County Attorney's office drafted an Agreement which closely reflected those discussions held at the meeting, but that upon the return of the draft Agreement from the attorney for the FWCD, it looked as though the document had been totally re -negotiated in FWCD's favor. He felt that FWCD will continue to have significant problems as long as there is a conflict between what the large landowners want for their future in the District and the needs and desires of the citizens actually living in the District. Rodney Tillman, Superintendent of Plant and Operations, Fellsmere Water Control District, stated that he had been given direction by the FWCD Board to relay that the 1975 Agreements had not been broken, and that it was the desire of the FWCD Board for the County to continue to maintain the roads as stated in the 1975 Agreement until such time as legislation to extend the life of the District is resolved. Indian River County Florida Page 10 Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final February 21, 2017 Commissioner Solari inquired as to whether the FWCD was seeking to renew the Interlocal Agreement or seeking to become an Improvement District, and questioned whether it would be a good time to terminate the existence of the Water Control District and turn over those functions to the County or the City depending on where the geographical line is. Mr. Tillman clarified that the FWCD was currently seeking to renew the Agreement, and was unsure if they would make an attempt to become an Improvement District in the future. Discussions ensued at great length amongst the Board, the Public Works Department, and Mr. Tillman about flooding issues, drainage responsibilities, and the concerns about the substantial cost to design and construct a stormwater treatment facility, if FWCD does not agree to provide drainage. Commissioners voiced their frustrations about not being able to get the situation resolved. Commissioner Adams expressed her concerns over the residents that have been put on notice by the Post Office that their mail would not continue to be delivered, and about situations with Waste Management Recycling trucks that have gotten stuck because of the condition of the roads. Chairman Flescher stated that since the District was established when horse and wagon was the main mode of transportation, it may be time to revisit the 99 Year Agreement. He said that if the District does not have the funding or the ability to handle the problem, it may be time for the County to take over in its own capacity. John Pulver, 93rd Street, Fellsmere Farms, expressed his frustrations about the road he lives on and his recent experience with an uncomfortable ambulance ride to get to the hospital because of the condition of his road. It was his belief that it was the County's obligation to get the problem solved, and all he wanted was to get his road graded to allow him access to his home. Vice Chairman O'Bryan suggested that the County keep grading the roads as usual, and let the drainage problems be the responsibility of the Drainage District. County Attorney Reingold offered possible solutions for the secondary drainage problem, and explained the potential liability issues that the County could face as a result of grading the roads and flooding the adjacent private property. Joel Tyson, Mayor of Fellsmere, commented that the City of Fellsmere had experienced flooding problems on Broadway Street, but since the closing of Berry Groves, it was no longer an issue. He stated that the City of Fellsmere originally got involved with the flooding and drainage problems through the property owner's association to champion for the property owners on South Willow Street and the "Circle Z" areas. He felt the original mistake was made when the permits were issued for those areas without the thought of the road issues as more homes were built. He expressed appreciation to the Board for their efforts and felt that, if it was explained properly, the residents would accept the increase in taxes and the flooding of their property as a result of grading of the roads. Indian River County Florida Page 11 Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final February 21, 2017 A motion was made by Commissioner Adams, seconded by Chairman Flescher, to approve: (1) the use of budgeted funds in the amount of $210,925 for the purchase of material and the grading of the roadways in Fellsmere; and (2) approve the proposed Third Amended and Restated Fellsmere Water Control District -Indian River County Interlocal Agreement, as presented. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 3- Chairman Flescher, Commissioner Adams, and Commissioner Zorc Nay: 2- Vice Chairman O'Bryan, and Commissioner Solari 13.13 17-0207 House Bill 17 Attachments: Staff Report HB 17 County Attorney Dylan Reingold provided an update and expressed his concerns about House Bill 17, as it would create a significant limitation on local government Home Rule Powers. He stated that this Bill prohibits local governments from imposing regulations on businesses, professions and occupations after January 1, 2017, preempting the regulation of businesses, professions, and occupations to the State. He said that there was a grandfather clause for regulations adopted prior to January 1, 2017, but it will expire on January 1, 2020. This would affect the County's ability to regulate adult entertainment and nightclubs, and would affect local Ordinances dealing with pain management and fracking. The Bill has been referred to two House Committees, with the first meeting to be held with the Careers and Competitions Subcommittee on February 22, 2017, and will move on to the Commerce Committee, if it passes. He felt this Bill was a direct threat to Home Rule Authority, and said he would relay any of the Board's comments to Tallahassee. 14. COMMISSIONERS MATTERS A. Commissioner Joseph E.
