I respectfully submit my annual report to•the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners. This report covers most forestry activities for the Fiscal Year 93/94. The Urban Forester will be submitting his annual report to the commission under a separate cover. I would like to be present at the Commission meeting when it is reviewed by the commissioners. If at all possible, can this item be placed on the August 30 meeting agenda, and would your office please notify me of the meeting date. If you require any additional information, or if I can answer any questions, please let me know. Sincerely Bob Crawford Comm ssioner of Agriculture Joe Spa at' ro Forest Area Supervisor (407) 778-5085 3 September 6, 1994 BOOK BOOK 93 PAGE 16 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) accepted the Annual Fire Control Report from the Division of Forestry. ANNUAL FIRE CONTROL REPORT INDIAN RIVER COUNTY JULY 289-1994 As required by the Division of Forestry Fire Manual, an annual report is submitted each fall to cover the work undertaken by the Division during the past fiscal year. Currently Indian River Co. is assessed $3,079.71 for fire protection of 105,657 acres. The following is a break down of the Division activities for July 1, 1993 to June 30, 1994. A. Burning Authorizations - During the past twelve months the Division issued 1,256 authorizations, for 23,934 acres. The authorizations were for agriculture, silviculture, and limited landclearing type fires. The number of authorizations are for the entire county including the cities of Fellsmere, Sebastian,. Orchid Island, and Vero Beach. The Division of Forestry does not charge for burning authorizations or smoke complaints. B. Fires - The number of fires increased this past year from 30 to 56 fires. There was a increase in the total acreage, from 293 to 8951.2 acres. Two fire in the St. Johns marsh accounted for 8150 acres. The fires were 4500 and 3650 acres respectively. The Fire Department handled numerous fires where our assistance was not needed. These are not reflected in this report. Lightning caused fires are our leading cause of fires. C. Law Enforcement - In Indian River County we issued 12 Notice of Violations to people for illegal burning, carelessly starting a fire, or allowing their fire to escape. Suppression bills were sent to the known violators, when the Division of Forestry occurred any cost. Suppression billinggs used instead of criminal proceedings for most first time offenders. D. Fire Prevention - Fire prevention this past year was directed at adult to help reduce our fires to ZERO HUMAN CAUSED FIRE& This was accomplished by radio talk shows and by passing out material during Fire Prevention week Several'news articles relating to fire prevention and current fire situations were given to local newspapers. This next fiscal year will bring a renewed commitment to the local schools. With the purchase of the Smokey Bear 50th. birthday materials, we are committed to cover as many schools aspossible this year. The Division assisted local landowners and governmental agencies (state and county) with 14 prescribed burns for approximately 6,500 acres. E. R.C.F.P. Lease - Indian River County currently has leased from the Division one 5,000 gallon tanker. This unit is stationed at Station 70 in Sebastian. 4 September 6, 1994 F. Training - There were 4 training courses given to the Fire District. Three training sessions were primarily in the field of fire suppression and tactics. One training courses was I-220, the Incident Command System. The total number of students were 53. G. Division of Forestry Staffing = The Division of Forestry has one Forest Area Supervisor, one Urban/County Forester, four Forest Rangers, and one Fire Tower Lookout. H. Goals for F.Y. 94/95 - Our main goal is to continue to reduce our human caused fires. The use of the Incident Command System by the Division of Forestry and the Fire Department will help prepare us for an emergency or disaster if it should strike. The next year will be filled with challenges if fire predictions are correct. The continuing cooperation between the Division of Forestry and The Indian River Co. Fire District will help reduce the potential for the loss of life or property. In closing I would like to invite the county staff to call upon the Division if they need assistance with any forestry related subject. The Division of Forestry is committed to serve the citizens of Indian River County. A Traffic Impact Fee Allocation for I.R. Blvd., Phase III - Budget Amendment 024 The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/30/94: TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE: August 30, 1994 SUBJECT-* TRAFFIC IMPACT FEE ALLOCATION FOR INDIAN RIVER BOULEVARD PROJECT - PHASE III BUDGET AMENDMENT 024 - CONSENT AGENDA FROM: Joseph A. Baird OMB Director _ DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Under the County Traffic Impact Fee Ordinance adopted in 1985, a provision is included that states that projects which provide "capital expansion of bridge facilities and their access roads" connecting the barrier island to the mainland can be funded from all Traffic Impact Fee Districts based upon specified pereentages. Tun Davis, Public Works Director, through the attached memo, has requested that $2 million of the County costs for Phase III of the Indian River Boulevard project be funded from the Traffic Impact Fee Districts. The funding was originally provided through Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) District 5 and Fund 109 - Secondary Roads Construction Fund (i.e., Local Option and Constitutional Gas Tax). This agenda item is to request approval to reallocate the funding for a portion of the Phase III costs. This results in a reimbursement of $650,000 to the Secondary Roads Construction Fund and a reimbursement of $1,350,000 to TIF District 5. TIF District 5's final share of the funding would be $200,000.

DEVELOPMENT AND LOCATION: Walkers Glen West Unit I is a 30 lot subdivision of a ±12.8 acre parcel of land located on the south side of 26th Street just west of 54th Avenue. A second unit comprised of 26 lots on 7.66 acres is to be constructed and platted in the future. The subject property is zoned RS -6, Single Family Residential (up to 6 units per acre) and has an L-2, Low Density 2 (up to 6 units per acre) land use designation. The proposed density for this unit is 2.34 units per acre, while the proposed density for the overall subdivision is 2.73 units per acre. At its regular meeting of August 12, 1993, the Planning and Zoning Commission granted preliminary plat approval for the entire subdivision, including Unit I and Unit II. The owner, Walkers Glen West Ltd., is now requesting final plat approval and has submitted the following: 1. A final plat in conformance with the approved preliminary plat. 2. Two cost estimates, one for remaining required improvements and one for completed improvements, as follows: a. Cost estimate for upland edge plantings around lake (incomplete improvement) b. Cost estimate for all other required improvements (completed improvements) 3. A warranty and maintenance agreement for constructed, publicly dedicated improvements and a letter of credit to secure the agreement. 7 BOD!( P,�GE 170 September 6, 1994 BOOK. 93 171 4. A contract for construction of remaining required improvements (upland edge plantings) and a letter of crddit to secure the contract. _ 5. Escrow for the future paving of 22nd Street. ANALYSIS: All of the required subdivision improvements have been completed with the exception of the upland edge planting around the project lake, and paving of a portion of 22nd Street, which is adjacent to the southern boundary of the area to be platted. A contract for construction for the upland edge planting has been submitted along with a letter of credit to secure the contract. A warranty and maintenance agreement for publicly dedicated roadway improvements and a letter of credit to secure the agreement has been submitted. In addition, the applicant has submitted an escrow payment for the future paving of 22nd Street. The County Attorney's Office has approved the Warranty Maintenance Agreement, the Contract for Construction, and the format of the letters of credit. The public works department has approved the amounts of the cost estimates, the letters of credit, and the road paving escrow submittal. The utilities for the project have been approved and accepted by the City of Vero Beach. All applicable requirements regarding the final plat approval have been satisfied. Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners grant final plat approval for Walkers Glen West Unit I, authorize the Chairman to execute the contract for construction and the warranty/maintenance agreement, and accept the letters of credit and cash escrow submittal. Attorney Vitunac advised that because the developer presented a cash escrow after this memo was prepared, we are asking for approval of a cash escrow agreement instead. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) granted final plat approval for Walkers Glen West, Unit I; approved the contract for construction, the warranty/ maintenance agreement and cash escrow agreement, as recommended by staff.

EMS County Award Grant funds to upgrade the county owned paging system at Hobart Tower which included the purchase of software and thirty (30) additional pagers for a total of $16,914. Bid specifications were prepared and submitted, however, after review of the bid documents, staff recommends sole source purchase of the equipment and pagers from Communications International. The upgrade will provide for alphanumeric and numeric paging while still retaining the existing voice and tone type pagers. The existing voice and tone pagers can still be used with the new system. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The staff recommendation is based on the fact that Communications International installed the original paging system and seventy-five a (75%) percent of the original GE equipment will remain with the new equipment, which is propriety to GE. To preclude replacing seventy- five percent of the existing equipment and increasing the paging system upgrade expense, staff requests the Board favorably consider the sole source purchase from the vendor referenced above.. Suggested alternatives for the Board to consider are as follows: Alternative #1 - Deny the staff recommendation and seek bids for the paging system upgrade. Alternative #2 - Approve the staff recommendation waiving bids and award the paging system upgrade to Communications International in the amount of $16,914 as recommended by staff. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Board approve Alternative #2. 13 BOOK f tj September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 FAut 177 7 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) awarded the paging system upgrade to Communications International in the amount of $16,914, as recommended by staff.

His phone calls to them are never answered, and he felt an investigation by a grand jury is warranted. However, he was told that there is no need to convene a grand jury on this matter. He always had thought it was up to the grand jury to decide whether or not to convene. County Attorney Charles Vitunac advised that the Board of County Commissioners has no jurisdiction over the State Attorney's Office, and Chairman Tippin advised Mr. Sturm that he has the option of hiring a private attorney to pursue this matter. Mr. Sturm emphasized that he just wanted to make the Commission aware that we are not getting our money's worth out of the tax dollars going to the State Attorney's Office.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS AND APPEALS 0018, _ - �-�� - - HORIZON INC. APPLICATION FOR USE OF ALTERNATE METHOD OUTLETS AT VERO BEACH Dear Mr. Vitunac: Please be advised that I represent Horizon Inc. Please accept this letter as the initiation of an Appeal pursuant to Section 100.06, Indian River County code, from the decision rendered August 15, 1994, in the above -referenced matter. 26 September 6, 1994 M M This Appeal is based upon the board's interpretation of the applicable statute in a manner inconsistent with its historical application in Indian River county. Additionally, the proposed construction, by definition, meets the requirements of the code. As I mentioned to you, -I `would appreciate being given the opportunity to hear this appeal on Tuesday, September 6. I will be present at the county commission meeting on that date with the expectation that the board will consent to placing this item on its agenda. Thank you for your kind attention. Very truly yours, RAL H L. EVANS Attorney Vitunac advised that Title I of the County Code provides for an appeal from any board or commission to the Board of County Commissioners unless there is a specific method of appeal elsewhere in the Code. The Building Board of Adjustment and Appeals is one of the boards that does not have a specific appeal listed in the Code; therefore, under this catch-all appeal, an appellant has a right to come before the Board _of County Commissioners to contest a decision by the Building Board of Adjustments and Appeals. Attorney Evans, representing Horizon, Inc., has met the 2 -day filing period and the County Commission has 20 days to respond. This is only the third day of the response time, but because of the gravity of the situation, Attorney Evans wanted to come before the Board as soon as possible. The request to add it to today's Agenda received unanimous approval. This is an official appeal and the Board is sitting as the Board of County Commissioners as an appellant body of a decision by a lower board. Attorney Ralph Evans, representing Horizon, Inc., displayed a site plan of the outlet mall under construction, while Planning staff showed an overhead slide of the site plan. He noted that Bill Brown and Roy Brice from Horizon, Inc. are here today to answer any questions the Board may have. 27 BOOK 93 F>vcE190 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 PAGE 191 MA !i-81 \w �`"` . �,a�. o m S � —— Attorney Evans emphasized that Horizon has worked hand in hand with the County and State on every step of the way on this site and in obtaining 26 permits. Buildings A, B, D and F are at the point of construction where tenant improvements are being made and the other buildings shown are in the second phase of construction. He noted that a connective building is planned between Buildings D and F sometime in 1995. They anticipate a completion date on the first phase sometime prior to December 1, 1994. Attorney Evans explained that the reason for today's appeal is the requirement placed upon the stores with less than 4,000 square feet to provide a public toilet with direct access. Pre - construction meetings were held, and this building received a Certificate of Occupancy in the shell form in anticipation of tenant improvements. Every space in the 4 buildings has a toilet facility constructed and -in place. In addition, Buildings B and F have public facilities accessible from the outside. Apparently, the oversight in the toilet facilities resulted from Section 922 of the Plumbing Code which states: "Every building and each subdivision thereof intended for public use shall be provided with public facilities in accordance with this chapter. Facilities shall be directly accessible to the public through direct openings or corridor areas to the areas they are intended to serve." 28 September 6, 1994 M M M Attorney Evans maintained that there are sufficient toilet facilities to serve the site, but the problem is their accessibility. Unfortunately., this matter was never brought up, or overlooked, during the pre -construction hearings when efforts could have been made to accommodate the accessibility requirements. He suggested that the language included in Section 922 regarding "direct accessibility" does not take into account the physiological accessibility in the smaller stores when people read a sign saying that they can use the toilet upon request. Commissioner Eggert understood that this project is considered an outside mall and the public facilities accessed from the outside cannot be counted in meeting the requirements, but she wondered if there is any flexibility with direct access being through a natural walkway through a stockroom to the toilet at the back of a smaller store if the walkway is wide enough to satisfy the Americans With Disabilities Act. Building Director Ester Rymer advised that 'staff felt that the code was very specific and that direct access could not be through a stock room.

Commissioner Macht asked if the Board determines today that a corridor is indeed a walkway and not necessarily divided by a masonry separation, that definition would be applied to all future buildings. Attorney Vitunac confirmed that a decision to that effect would set precedent. It was Commissioner Macht Is opinion that the direct access requirement would be met if there is an unobstructed means of access to a rest room. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, :that the Board establish a policy that a rest room must be directly accessible by a corridor that is defined as a walkway sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the ADA and the -Southern Building -Code. 30 September 6, 1994 -I E7 Under discussion, Director Rymer emphasized that this is an appeal of a decision by the Building Code' of Adjustment Appeals. She pointed out that the applicant did not meet the intent of the code by the alternate method proposed. Actually, it goes a little bit further than just talking about direct access. A significant part of the issue was that there was never intent for facilities in the smaller stores to be open to the public. The developer provided public facilities in remotely located areas of the center in Buildings B and F. The rest rooms in the smaller tenant spaces were primarily designed for employee use only, but when we told the developer that the other facilities did not satisfy the requirements, they came back with the idea of having the rest rooms accessed through the stockroom by permission only and in a supervised manner. The Building Code of Adjustment and Appeals decided that the applicant was not entitled to any kind of relief on this. Commissioner Macht didn't know how any of that affected his Motion on the floor, and Chairman Tippin explained that we are under discussion of the Motion. Commissioner Adams disagreed with Attorney Evans' statement that accessibility is physiological; she believed it is physical. However, she didn't understand how this project differs from an enclosed mall where we allow public facilities to satisfy the requirements, and Director Rymer explained that in a covered mall you do not have to go outside to use the public' rest rooms. In this case, the public facilities in Buildings B & F are 600-700 feet apart and only accessible from the outside. Commissioner Macht understood there is a portico outside the building, but Director Rymer explained that all the buildings are not connected. Commissioner Adams felt the distance to walk to Buildings B & F would be similar to covered malls where the public facilities tend to be out of the way. However, she was concerned about increased liability and security by requiring the small stores to provide public access to their toilets. There are obstructions in stockrooms, and apparently that is the reason Director Rymer wants a corridor leading to the rest rooms. She felt we do put undue stress on small companies trying to make it in.a big world. Commissioner Macht felt we are talking as if the main reason people go to an outlet mall is to go to the rest rooms rather than to shop. Chairman Tippin felt the intent of the law is always good, but there is a limit. He felt we could survive with 50-60 public 31 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 PAGUE 1,.14 nox 93 pnl:195 toilets out there without requiring the developer to cut through the small spaces to create a corridor. Attorney Evans explained that all the stores with more than 4,000 square feet have a dedicated corridor leading to toilets that can be used by the public. Those toilets are in addition to the public facilities in Buildings B and F. He emphasized that there are 162 toilets/urinals designated in the project. Commissioner Eggert was concerned about speaking to the future on this issue. She wondered if we might say that we somehow feel that this mall would function just like an indoor shopping center, and, therefore, should be treated that way. Commissioner Macht suggested that he withdraw his Motion and frame a new Motion in the context of granting the appeal and directing staff to do a policy review. COMMISSIONERS MACHT AND EGGERT WITHDREW THEIR MOTION ON THE FLOOR. ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) granted the appeal by Horizon, Inc. and requested staff to do a policy review and bring it back to the Board.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS This is a request to rezone the southern 30.55 acres of an approximately 40 acre parcel from A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/5 acres) to IG, General Industrial District. The northern 9.45 acres of the 40 acre.parcel are currently zoned IG. Running from Oslo Road (9th Street, S.W.), south to 13th Street, S.W., the 40 acre parcel is approximately one-half of a mile west of 74th Avenue. The subject property is owned by David Edward Gunter, Alice J. Gunter, Leonard Stawara, and Sandra Stawara. The purpose of this request is to secure the necessary zoning to develop the site with industrial uses. On July 14, 1994, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend that the Board. of County Commissioners approve this request to rezone the subject property to IG. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property, zoned A-1, consists almost entirely of citrus groves. The county landfill, also zoned A-1, abuts the subject property on the south. West of the site, adjacent land is zoned A- 1 and is used for a citrus grove and a tree farm. A vacant field, zoned IG, abuts the site's northern boundary. East of the site, on IG zoned land, is a large tract of land consisting of a pump assembly, testing plant, and wooded areas. Future Land Use Pattern The subject property, and properties to the north, east, and west are designated-C/I, Commercial/Industrial on the future land use map. Land to the south is -designated PUB,. Public Facilities, on 34 September 6, 1994 the future land use map. The PUB designation permits various public facilities and services. Environment With the exception of two small isolated vegetative areas, the subject property is developed as a citrus .grove. Portions of the site lie within Flood Zone "A" as shown on the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Flood Insurance Rate Map. Located within a 100 -year floodplain, Flood Zone "A" is a special flood hazard area for which no base flood elevation has been determined. Utilities and Services Located within the Urban Service Area of the.county, potable water is available to the site from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant, while wastewater is available from the West County Wastewater Treatment Plant. Transportation System Oslo Road (9th Street, S.W.) and 13th Street, S.W. provide access to the subject property. Oslo Road is a two-lane paved road with 60 feet of existing public road right-of-way and is classified as an urban principal arterial on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map. This segment of Oslo Road is programmed for expansion to 80 feet of public road right-of-way by 2010. The portion of 13th Street, S.W. that abuts the subject property is a two-lane unpaved road with 30 feet of existing public road right- of-way and is classified as a collector on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map. This segment of 13th Street, S.W. is programmed for expansion to 60 feet of public road right-of-way by 2010. ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis_ of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will include a description of: _ • concurrency of public facilities; • compatibility with the surrounding area; • consistency with the comprehensive plan; and • potential impact on environmental quality. Concurrency of Public Facilities This site is located within the county Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale development. The Comprehensive Plan establishes standards for: -Transportation,. Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation (Future Land Use Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. The Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations (LDRs) also require that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. 35 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 FADE 800K 93 FADE 199 Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements Element. For rezoning requests, conditional concurrency review is required. Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning requests are not projects, county regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon the requested zoning district. For commercial and industrial rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to the county's LDRs) is retail commercial with 10,000 square feet of gross floor area per acre of land proposed for rezoning. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned:- ±30.55 acres 2. Existing Zoning District: _ A-11 Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/5 acres) 3. Proposed Zoning District: 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Existing Zoning District: IG, General Industrial District 6 Dwelling Unit (DU) 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Proposed Zoning District: 305,500 sq. ft. of Retail Commercial (Shopping Center in the 5th Edition ITE Manual) - Transportation A review of the traffic impacts that would result from the most intense development of the property under the proposed zoning district indicates that the existing level of service "D" or better on Oslo Road. would be lowered. The site information used for determining traffic is as follows: Existing Zoning District (A-1) 1. Residential Use Identified in 5th Edition ITE Manual: Single - Family 2. Average Weekday Trip Ends: 6 DU X 9.55 trip ends/DU = 57 3. P.M. Peak Hour Trip ends: 6 DU X 1.O1*trip/DU = 6 Proposed Zoning District (IG) 1. Retail Commercial use .Identified in 5th Edition ITE Manual: Shopping Center 2. For 305,500 square footstructures: a. Average Weekday Vehicle Trip Ends: 46.81/1000 gross sq. ft'. b. 5-6 p.m Peak Hour Vehicle Trip Ends: 4.4/1000`gross sq. ft. M September 6, 1994 _I 3. Formula for Determining Total New Trip Ends: Total Square Footage X- Vehicle Trip Rate X Percentage New Trips (trip distribution based on a Modified Gravity Model) a. Total Average Weekday Trip Ends: 305,500 X 46.81/1000 = 14,300 b. Total P.M. Peak Hour/Peak Season Trip Ends: 305,500 X 4.4/1000 = 1,344 c. Percentage New Trip Ends: 63 percent d. New Total Average Weekday Trip Ends: 0.63 X 14,300 = 9,009 e. New P.M. Peak Hour/Peak Season Trip Ends: 0.63 X 1,344 = 847 - Inbound: 50 percent of 847 = 423.5 - Outbound: 50 percent of 847 = 423.5 4. Peak Direction of Oslo Road from 82nd Avenue to 58th Avenue: Eastbound 5. Traffic Capacity on Oslo Road from 82nd Avenue -to 58th Avenue at a Level of Service "D": 600 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips 6. Existing Traffic volume on this segment of Oslo Road: 198 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips The number of Average Weekday Trip Ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the existing zoning is 57. This was determined by multiplying the 6 DU (most intense use) by ITE's single-family residential factor of 9.55 Average Daily Trip Ends/DU. The number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trip ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the existing zoning is 6. This was determined by multiplying 6 DU (most intense use) by ITE's single-family residential factor of 1.01 peak hour trip ends/DU. The number of Average Weekday Trip Ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the requested zoning is 14,300. This was determined by multiplying 305,500 square feet of shopping center use. (most intense use) by ITE's shopping center factor of 46.81 Average Weekday Trip Ends/1000 square feet. The number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trip ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the requested zoning is 1,344. This was determined by multiplying 305,500 square feet of shopping center use (most intense use) by ITE's factor of 4.4 peak hour trip ends/1000 square feet. The ITE has determined that 63 percent of the trip ends associated with shopping center development are new trip ends. Therefore, 63 percent of the 14,300 Average Weekday Trip Ends, or 91009, would be new. Similarly, 63 percent, or 847, of the 1,344 P.M. Peak Hour Trip Ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the requested zoning would be new. According to ITE, '50 percent, or 424, Trip Ends would be outbound, and -50 Therefore, the most intense use of the 37 September 6, 1994 of the New P.M. Peak Hour percent would be inbound. subject property under the BOOK P4E 2'00 800K 93 NaGE2- 01 requested zoning would generate 424 new p.m. peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips. This is 418 more than the six trips generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the present zoning. Using a modified gravity model and a hand assignment, the peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips generated by the proposed use were then assigned to impacted roads on the network. Impacted roads are defined in section 910.09(4)(b)3 of the county's LDRs as roadway segments which receive five percent or more of the project traffic or fifty or more of the project trips, whichever is less. Capacities for all roadway segments in Indian River County are calculated and updated annually, utilizing the latest and best available peak season traffic characteristics and applying Appendix G methodology as set forth in the Florida Department of Transportation Level of Service Manual. Available capacity is the total capacity less existing and committed traffic volumes; this is updated daily based upon vesting associated with project approvals. The traffic capacity for the segment of Oslo Road adjacent to this site is 600 trips (peak hour/peak-season/peak direction) at a Level of Service (LOS) "D", while the existing traffic volume on this segment of Oslo Road is 198 trips (peak hour/peak season/peak direction). The additional 424 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips created by the most intense development of the proposed zoning district would increase the total peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips for this segment of Oslo Road to approximately 622, or 22 more than capacity at LOS "D". The table below identifies each of the impacted roadway segments associated with this rezoning request. As indicated in this table, segment 2530E currently does not have sufficient capacity at LOS "D" to accommodate the projected traffic associated with the request. However, the applicant has entered into a developer's agreement with the county which states that the developer agrees to make the necessary improvements to segment 2530E to provide the additional capacity required to maintain LOS "D" on that roadway at the time of development. The execution of this agreement satisfies the transportation concurrency requirement for this request.

This is based upon a level of service of 250 gallons/ERU/day. The subject property will be serviced by the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant. This plant has a remaining capacity of approximately 2,300,000 gallons/day and can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning district. - Wastewater The subject property will be serviced by the West County Wastewater Plant. Based upon the most intense use allowed under the proposed zoning district, development of the property will have a wastewater generation rate of approximately 91.65 Equivalent Residential Units (ERUs), or 22,912.5 gallons/day. This is based upon the level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. The West County Wastewater Plant currently has a remaining capacity of more than 400,000 gallons/day and can accommodate the additional wastewater generated by the proposed zoning district. - Solid Waste Solid waste service includes pick-up by private 'operators and disposal at the county landfill. For a 305,500 square foot commercial development on the subject site, solid waste generation would be approximately 1,527 Waste Generation Units (WGUs) or 2,895 cubic yards of solid waste/year. A WGU is a Waste Generation Unit measurement equivalent to 1.896 cubic yards of waste/year. While WGUs are units of measurement which can be applied to either commercial or residential uses, WGUs must be considered in terms of residential units in order to correspond to the county's solid waste level of service standards. According to the county's solid waste regulations, each residential unit generates 1.6 WGUs/unit. With the county's adopted level of service standard of 2.37 cubic yards/person/year and the county's average of 2 persons/unit, each WGU is equivalent to 0.8 people (1.6/2 = 0.8) and 1.896 cubic yards of solid waste/year (0.8 X 2.37 = 1.896). To calculate the total cubic yards of solid waste for the most intense use allowed on the subject property under the proposed zoning district, staff utilized the following formula: Total number of WGUs X 0.8 X 2.37 (11527 X 0.8 X 2.37 = 21895 cubic yards/year). A review of the solid waste capacity for the active segment of the county landfill indicates the availability of more than 900,000 cubic yards. The active segment of the landfill has a 3 year capacity, and the landfill has expansion capacity beyond 2010. Based on staff analysis, the county.landfill can accommodate the additional solid waste generated by the site under the proposed zoning. Drainage All developments are reviewed for compliance with county stormwater regulations which require on-site retention, preservation of floodplain storage and minimum finished floor elevations. In addition, development proposals must meet the discharge requirements of the county Stormwater Management Ordinance. The subject property -is located within the M-1 Drainage Basin and the Indian River Farms Water Control District (IRFWCD). Since the site is located within the IRFWCD, development on- the property will be 43 BOOK 9F'�1,c O� September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 FAGE 20 l prohibited from discharging any runoff in excess of two inches in a 24 hour period, which is the approved IRFWCD discharge rate. In this case, the minimum floor elevation level of service standard applies, since portions of the property lie within a floodplain. Consistent with Drainage Policy 1.2, "all new buildings shall have the lowest habitable floor elevation no lower than the elevation of the 100 -year flood elevation as shown on the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Flood Insurance Rate Map, or as defined in a more detailed study report." Portions of the subject property lie within Flood Zone "A", which is a special flood hazard area located within the -100 -year floodplain. Since no base flood elevations have been determined for Flood Zone A, any development on this property must meet the requirements of LDR chapter 930, which relates the minimum finished floor elevation to the surrounding grade. Besides the minimum elevation requirement, on-site retention and discharge standards also apply to this request. With the most intense use of this site, the maximum area of impervious surface under the proposed zoning classification will be approximately 11110,780 square feet, or 25.5 acres. The maximum runoff volume, based on that amount of impervious -surface and the 25 year/24 hour design storm, and given the. IRFWCD two inch discharge requirement, will be approximately 961,600 cubic feet. In order to maintain the county's adopted level of service, the applicant will be required to retain approximately 526,000 cubic feet of runoff on-site. With the soil characteristics of the subject property, it is estimated that the pre -development runoff rate is 33 cubic feet/second. Based upon staff's analysis, the drainage level of service standards will be met by limiting off-site discharge to the IRFWCD's maximum discharge rate of two inches in twenty-four hours, requiring retention of.the 526,000 cubic feet of runoff for the most intense use of the property, and requiring that all finished floor elevations be consistent with the requirements of chapter 930. As with all development, a more detailed review will be conducted during the development approval process. - Recreation Recreation concurrency requirements apply only to residential development. Therefore, this rezoning request .would not be required to satisfy recreation concurrency requirements. Based on the analysis conducted, staff has. determined that facilities for drainage, solid waste, water,:. wastewater, and recreation have adequate capacity to accommodate the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed -.zoning district. The execution of a.developer's agreement has ensured that adequate road capacity will also be available at the time of development. For these reasons, the concurrency test has been satisfied for the subject request. Potential Impacts on Environmental Qualitv Being a citrus grove, the subject property is a disturbed site. Therefore, no significant.adverse environmental impacts associated with the proposed rezoning are -anticipated. . 44 September 6, 1994 O � � M If, at the time of development, a site specific survey of the two undeveloped vegetative areas indicates that they are native upland plant communities, then the site will be subject to the county's 10-15% native upland plant community set aside requirement. Similarly, if the site specific survey indicates the presence of wetlands, the development of the site will be subject to federal, state, and county permitting regulations. For these reasons, no significant adverse environmental impacts associated with the proposed rezoning are anticipated. Compatibility with the Surrounding Area Compatibility is not a major concern for this property. The site is centrally located within a commercial/industrial node. Development in the area is dominated by the landfill, agriculture, and various industrial uses. Since properties on the north and east are currently zoned IG, the request is for the continuation of an existing zoning pattern. For these reasons, staff feels that general industrial development on the subject property would be., compatible with surrounding areas. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all policies of the comprehensive plan. Rezonings must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future Land Use Map, which include agriculture, residential, recreation, conservation, and commercial and industrial land uses and their densities. Commercial and industrial land uses are located in nodes throughout the unincorporated areas of Indian River County. The goals, objectives and policies are the most important parts of the Comprehensive Plan. Policies are statements in the plan which identify the actions which the county will take in order to direct the community's development.- As courses of action committed to by the county, policies provide the basis for- all county land development decisions. While all comprehensive plan policies are important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing rezoning requests. Of particular applicability for this request are the following policies and objectives. Future Land Use Element Policy -1.17 Future Land Use Element Policy 1.17 states. that the industrial land use designation is intended for uses such as manufacturing, assembly, materials processing, heavy repair services, outdoor equipment storage, and similar uses, as -..well' as supportive and related commercial uses. In addition, that policy states that all industrial uses must be located within an existing or future urban service area. Since the subject property is located within a commercial/ industrial node within the county's urban service area, the request is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policy 1.17. - Future Land Use Element.Policy 2.5 Future Land Use Element Policy 2.5 states that the County shall encourage and direct growth into the Urban Service Area. The site is located within the Urban Service Area, and rezoning the subject property to IG would encourage growth within the Urban Service Area by allowing industrial, development on the. site. Therefore,' 45 BOOK PAGE September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 PAGE 209 rezoning the subject property is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policy 2.5. - Future Land Use Policy 4.3 Future Land Use Policy 4.3 states that activity centers, such as industrial developments, shall be located within commercial/ industrial nodes to ensure efficient utilization of the transportation network. Since the subject property is within a commercial/industrial node, the proposed request is consistent with Future Land Use Policy 4.3. - Economic Development Element Objectives 1 and 6, and Policy 1.1 These objectives and policy deal with lowering the county's unemployment rate by encouraging the expansion of existing businesses and industries, and the attraction of new ones. By providing additional industrially zoned land, the proposed rezoning will facilitate industrial development of the subject property. Therefore, the request is consistent with Economic Development Element Objectives 1 and 6, and -Policy 1.1. As part of the staff analysis, all policies in the comprehensive plan were considered. Based on that analysis, staff determined that the proposed zoning district is consistent with the comprehensive plan. CONCLUSION The requested zoning is compatible with the surrounding area, consistent_ with the goals, objectives, and policies of the comprehensive plan, and meets all applicable concurrency criteria. The subject property is located in an area deemed suitable for industrial uses, and the.request•has met all applicable criteria. Staff supports the request. RECONNENDATION Staff recommends that -the Board of County Commissioners approve this request to rezone the subject property from A-1 to.IG. Commissioner Adams asked if a site plan for any of this property had been submitted, and Community Development Director Robert Keating answered that no site plans have been submitted. He explained that this property, which has split zoning, is under one ownership. The purpose of this rezoning is to secure the necessary zoning to develop the site with industrial uses. Chairman Tippin opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. 46 September 6, 1994 r Michael O'Haire, attorney for the applicant, stated he was available to answer any questions the Board may have. There being no others who wished to be heard, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS This is a request to rezone approximately 18.23 acres located on the west side of Indian River Boulevard, approximately 1200 feet northwest of the intersection of 37th Street and Indian River Boulevard. The request involves rezoning the property, presently owned by Margaret Ann Knight, from RS -6, Single -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) to RM -8, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to -8 units/acre)....The applicant intends to develop an Adult Congregate Living Facility (ACLF) with more than 21 residents on the site. Although not permitted in single-family zoning districts, ACLFs with more than 21 residents are allowed as a Special Exception use in the RM -8 zoning district. On August 11, 1994, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 7-0 to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners approve this request to rezone the subject property to RM -8. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property, and properties to the north and west, consist of citrus groves and are zoned RS -6. To the south is the partially developed Medical Service Center Subdivision, zoned MED, Medical District. The portion of this subdivision that borders the subject property currently consists of citrus groves. Indian River Boulevard borders the site on -the northeast, while vacant RM -8 zoned land is directly east of the site. Future Land Use Pattern The subject property and properties to the north, east, and west are designated M-1, Medium -Density Residential -1, on the county future land use map. The M-1 designation permits residential uses with densities up to eight units/acre. Property south of the site is designated C/I, Commercial/Industrial Node. 50 September 6, 1994 Environment The subject property is currently a citrus grove. Environmental planning staff review of the site indicates that while there are no native upland plant communities, there may be two linear freshwater jurisdictional wetlands on the site. The subject property is within an "AE" 100 year floodplain, with a minimum base flood elevation requirement of seven feet;NGVD. Utilities and Services The site is within the Urban Service Area of the county. Both water and wastewater lines extend along 37th Street to within one quarter of a mile from the site. The South County Reverse Osmosis Plant would provide potable water service to development on the site, while wastewater service would be provided by the Central County (Gifford) Wastewater Treatment Plant. Transportation System The property abuts Indian River Boulevard which is classified as an urban principal arterial road on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map. This segment of Indian River Boulevard is a four -lane paved road with approximately 200 feet of public road right-of-way. There are no plans to expand Indian River Boulevard. ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will include a description of: • concurrency of public facilities; • compatibility with the surrounding area; • consistency with the comprehensive plan; and • potential impact on environmental quality. Concurrency of Public Facilities This site is located within the county Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale development. The Comprehensive Plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation (Future Land Use Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. The Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations also require that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements Element. For rezoning requests, conditional concurrency review is required. Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning requests are not projects, county regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the subject property -based upon the requested zoning district. 51 BOOK 93 FACE 21 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 F,1,UE 2 5 The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: ±18.23 acres 2. Existing Zoning Classification: RS -6, Single- Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) 3. Proposed Zoning Classification: 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Existing Zoning Classification: 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Proposed Zoning Classification: - Transportation RM -8, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 8 units/acre) 109 single-family units 145 single-family units A review of the traffic impacts that would result from the development of the property indicates that the existing level of service "D" or better on Indian River Boulevard would not be lowered. The site information used for determining traffic is as follows: Existing Zoning District 1. Use Identified in 5th Edition ITE Manual: Single -Family Residential 2. For Single -Family Units, in ITE Manual: a. Average Weekday Trip Ends: 9.55/unit b.- P.M. Peak Hour Trip Ends: 1.01/unit c. Inbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 65% i. Northbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 75% ii. Southbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 25% d. Outbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 35% i. Northbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 25% ii. Southbound -(P.M. Peak Hour): 75% 3. P.M.

Percentage X Inbound -Northbound Percentage (145 X 1.01 X .65 X .75 = 71) (trip distribution based on a Modified Gravity Model) 5. Formula for Determining Number of Average Weekday Trips Generated: Number of Units X Average Weekday Rate (145 X 9.55 = 1,385) 6. Traffic Capacity on this segment of Indian River Boulevard, at a Level of Service "D": 1,770 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips 7. Existing Traffic volume on this segment of Indian River Boulevard: 320 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips The number of Average Weekday Trip Ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the existing zoning district is 1,041. This was determined by multiplying the 109 units (most intense use) by ITE's single-family residential factor of 9.55 Average Daily Trip Ends/unit. The number of Average Weekday Trip Ends associated with the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district is 1,385. This was determined by multiplying the 145 units (most intense use), by ITE's single-family residential factor of 9.55 Average Daily Trip Ends/unit. Since the county's transportation level of service is based on peak hour/peak season/peak direction characteristics, the transportation concurrency analysis addresses project traffic occurring in the peak hour and affecting the peak direction of impacted roadways. According to ITE, the proposed use generates more volume in the p.m. peak hour than in the a.m.-peak hour. Therefore, the p.m. peak hour was used in the transportation concurrency analysis. The peak direction during the p.m. peak hour on Indian River Boulevard is northbound. Given those conditions, the number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips that would be generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the existing zoning district was calculated to be 54. This was determined by multiplying the total number of gnits allowed under the existing zoning district (109) by ITE's factor of 1.01 p.m. peak hour trips/unit, to determine the total number of trips generated.- Of these trips, 65% (72) will be inbound and 35% (39) will be outbound. Of the inbound trips, 75% or 54 will be westbound. To determine the number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips that would be generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the requested zoning district, the total number of units allowed under the proposed district (145) was multiplied by ITE's factor of 1.01 p.m. peak hour trips/unit to determine the total number of trips generated (146). Of these 53 September 6, 1994 am 93 PAGE 217 trips, 65% (95) will be inbound and 35% (51) will be outbound. Of the inbound trips, 75% or 71 will be westbound. Therefore, the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district would generate 17 more peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips than the 54 that would be generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the existing zoning district (71 - 54 = 17). Using a modified gravity model and a hand assignment, the peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips generated by the proposed use were then assigned to impacted roads on the network. Impacted roads are defined in section 910.09(4)(b)3 of the county's LDRs as roadway segments which receive five percent (5%) or more of the project traffic or fifty (50) or more of the project trips, whichever is less. Capacities for all roadway segments in Indian River County are calculated and updated annually, utilizing the latest and best available peak season traffic characteristics and applying Appendix G methodology as set forth- in the Florida Department of Transportation Level of Service Manual. Available capacity is the total capacity less existing and -committed traffic volumes; this is updated daily based upon vesting associated with project approvals. The traffic capacity for the segment of Indian River Boulevard adjacent to this site is 1,770 trips (peak hour/peak season/peak direction) at Level of Service (LOS) "D", while the existing traffic volume on this segment of Indian River Boulevard is 320 trips (peak hour/peak season/peak direction). The additional 71 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips created by the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district would increase the total peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips for this segment of Indian River Boulevard to approximately 391. Based on the above analysis, staff determined that Indian River Boulevard and all other impacted roads can accommodate the additional trips without decreasing their existing levels of service. The table below identifies each of the impacted roadway segments associated with this proposed zoning classification. As indicated in this table, there is sufficient capacity in all of the segments to accommodate the projected traffic associated with the request.

With the most intense use allowed under the proposed rezoning, the subject property will have a water consumption rate of 145 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 36,250 gallons/day. This is based upon, a level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the South County Water Plant currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 2,300,000 gallons/day, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning. - Wastewater The subject property is serviced by the Central County Wastewater Treatment Plant (Gifford). With the most intense use allowed under the proposed rezoning, the subject property will have a wastewater generation rate of 145 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 36,250 gallons/day. This is based upon a level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the Central County Wastewater Treatment Plant currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 500,000 gallons/day, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning. - Solid Waste Solid waste service includes pick-up by private operators and disposal at the county landfill. Solid waste generation by a 145 unit residential development on the subject site will be approximately 232 Waste Generation Units (WGU) or 440 cubic yards of solid waste/year. A WGU is a Waste Generation Unit measurement equivalent to 1.896 cubic yards of waste/year. According to the county's solid waste regulations, each residential unit generates 1.6 WGUs. With the county's adopted level of service standard of 2.37 cubic yards/person/year and the county's average of 2 persons/unit, each WGU is equivalent to 0.8 people (1.6/2 = 0.8) and 1.896 cubic yards of solid waste/year (0.8 X 2.37 = 1.896). To calculate the total cubic yards of solid waste for the most intense use allowed on the subject property under the proposed zoning district, staff utilized the following formula: Total number -of WGUs X 0.8 X 2.37 (232 X 0.8 X 2.37 = 440 cubic yards/year). A review of the solid waste capacity for the active segment of the county landfill indicates the availability of more than 900,000 cubic yards. The active segment of the landfill has a 3 year capacity, and the landfill has expansion capacity beyond 2010. Based on staff analysis, it was determined that the county landfill can accommodate the additional solid waste generated by the site under the proposed zoning district. - Drainage All developments are reviewed for compliance with county stormwater regulations which require on-site retention, preservation of floodplain storage and minimum- finished floor 'elevations. In addition, development proposals must meet the discharge requirements of the county Stormwater Management Ordinance. Any development on the subject property will be prohibited from discharging any runoff in excess of the pre -development rate. In this case, the minimum floor elevation level of service standard applies, since -the property lies within a floodplain. Consistent with Drainage Policy 1.2, "all new buildings shall have the lowest habitable floor elevation no lower than the elevation of the 100- 56 September 6, 1994 year flood elevation as shown on the Federal -Emergency Management Agency's Flood Insurance Rate Map, or as defined in a more detailed study report." Since the subject property lies within Flood Zone AE, which is a special flood hazard area located within the 100 - year floodplain, any development on this property must have a minimum finished floor elevation of no less than seven feet above mean sea level. Besides the minimum elevation requirement, on-site retention and discharge standards also apply to this request. With the most intense use of this site, the maximum area of impervious surface under the proposed zoning classification will be approximately 555,869 square feet, or 12.76 acres. The maximum runoff volume, based on that amount of impervious surface and the 25 year/24 hour design storm, will be approximately 565,000 cubic feet. In order to maintain the county's adopted level of service, the applicant will be required to retain approximately 104,260 cubic feet of runoff on-site. With the soil characteristics of the subject property, it is estimated that the pre -development runoff rate is 76 cubic feet/second. Based upon staff's analysis, the drainage level of service standards will be met by limiting off-site discharge to its pre - development rate of 76 cubic feet/second, requiring retention of 104,260 cubic feet of runoff for the most intense use of the property, and requiring that all finished floor elevations exceed seven feet above mean sea level. As with all development, a more detailed review will be conducted during the development approval process. - Recreation A review of county recreation facilities and the projected demand that would result from the most intense development that could occur on the property under the proposed zoning classification indicates that the adopted levels of service would be maintained. The table below illustrates the additional park demand associated with the proposed development of the property and the existing surplus acreage by park type. Based upon the analysis conducted, staff has determined that all concurrency -mandated facilities, including drainage, roads, solid waste, recreation, water, and wastewater have adequate capacity to accommodate the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning. Therefore, the concurrency test has been satisfied for the subject request. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all policies of the comprehensive plan.

Commercial and industrial land uses are 57 BOOK 93 PAGE $2042 0 September 6, 1994 BOOK 53 DGE M located in nodes throughout the unincorporated areas of Indian River County. The goals, objectives and policies are the most important parts of the comprehensive plan. Policies are statements in the plan which identify the actions which the county will take in order to direct the community's development. As courses of action committed to by the county, policies provide the basis for all county land development related decisions. While all comprehensive plan policies are important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing rezoning requests. Of particular applicability for this request are the following policy and objective. - Future Land Use Element Policy 1.14 Future Land Use Element Policy 1.14 states that the M-1, Medium - Density Residential -1, land use designation is intended for residential uses with densities up to eight units/acre. In addition, that policy states that these residential uses must be located within an existing or future urban service area. Since the subject property is located within an area designated as M-1 on the county's future land use plan map and is located within the county's urban service area, and the proposed zoning district would permit residential uses no denser than eight units/acre, the proposed request is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policy 1.14. - Future Land Use Element Objective 4 Future Land Use Element Objective 4 states that Indian River County will reduce the number and length of trips by implementing a land use pattern which places employment centers near residential areas. Projections indicate that the medical node adjacent to the subject property will become one of the county's major employment centers. This occurrence is expected to generate demand for multiple -family housing. Allowing that demand for multiple -family housing to 'be filled on property bordering the node implements Future Land Use Element Objective 4. While Future -land Use Element Policy 1.14 and Objective 4 are particularly applicable to this request, other comprehensive plan policies and objectives also have relevance. For that reason, staff evaluated the subject request for consistency with all plan policies and objectives. Based upon that analysis, staff determined that the request is consistent with the comprehensive plan. Compatibility with the Surrounding Area Staff's position is that granting the request to rezone the subject property to RM -8 will result in development which will be compatible with surrounding areas. Bordering both a medical commercial node and Indian River Boulevard, the site is more suited for medium density, multiple -family development than it is for low density, single-family, uses. - With multiple -family development and required buffers, potential impacts from those adjacent uses can be mitigated. To ensure compatibility, development of those lots in the medical subdivision that are adjacent to the subject' property will require the provision of buffers where those lots abut the subject property. Similarly, multiple -family development on the subject property will be required to provide buffers where the site abuts a single-family use or district. 58 September 6, 1994 M M M More importantly, several factors indicate that the RM -8 district is the most appropriate for the site. Located near an employment center, a hospital, and various .other medical uses, the site is particularly suited for the multiple -family and institutional uses permitted in the RM -8 zoning district. Additionally, an RM -8 zoning district on the site woiuld provide a logical transition from the more intense uses south and east of the subject property (the medical commercial node and Indian River Boulevard) to the RS -6 zoning district bordering the site on the -north and west. Since the M-1 land use designation allows multiple -family and single-family development with densities of up to eight units/acre, several zoning districts are consistent with the M-1 land use designation. In the past, the Board has not zoned all property with the most intense zoning district allowed under its land use designation. The Board has often placed the densest multiple - family districts along the border of a high impact use such as a commercial/ industrial node or a major road, while reserving less dense, single-family districts for land bordering the multiple - family districts. In this way the intensity of the use of land is gradually decreased as the distance from the high impact use is increased. This strategy, which is consistent with the subject request, reduces the difference between the intensity of use of adjacent lands, thus reducing potential incompatibilities. For these reasons, staff feels that the requested RM -8 zoning would be compatible with the surrounding area. Potential Impact on Environmental Quality Environmental impacts of residential development on the subject property would be essentially the same under either the existing or the proposed zoning district. In fact, changing the zoning of the subject property from RS -6 to RM -8 may enhance. environmental quality by encouraging residential development of the site which is currently a grove. The environmental quality of the site may be enhanced by residential development, because site development would result in construction of a stormwater management system, and protection of jurisdictional wetlands which may be on site. Due to the county's stormwater retention requirements for residential development, residential development on the subject property would reduce the amount of stormwater runoff from the site. The requirements for residential development contrast -with the present agricultural use that allows runoff to occur without any stormwater retention. Prior to residential development of the site, the applicant would be required to complete an environmental survey to determine the extent of any jurisdictional wetlands on the site. That survey would have to be approved by the county's environmental planning staff. Any jurisdictional wetlands determined to be located on the parcel are protected by federal, state, and county regulations. For these reasons, no significant adverse environmental impacts associated with this request are anticipated. CONCLUSION The requested zoning is compatible with the surrounding area, consistent with -the comprehensive plan, meets all concurrency criteria, and will have no negative impacts on environmental quality. The subject property is located in an area deemed suited for medium -density residential uses and meets all applicable rezoning criteria. For these reasons, staff supports the request. 59 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 PAGE Bou 93 Fact 223 RECONMENDATION Based on the analysis this re resat to rezonnds e the Board of County subject property Commissioners approve 4u •from RS -6 to RM -8.

Chandler County Administrator DEPARTMENT HEAD CONCURRENCE: agog Obert M. Reat g, AWV Community Developmen Director FROM: Roland M. DeBlois; AICP Chief, Environmental Planning DATE: August 23, 1994 RE: Request for County Commission Authorization for FloridAffinity, Inc. to Subcontract Environmental Land Pre -Acquisition Services, Contingent Upon County Administrator Approval It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of September 6, 199,4. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The Board of County Commissioners, at its regular meeting on August 2, 1994, approved a contract with FloridAffinity/Conservation Consultants for environmental land acquisition/management services. Section 1.10 of the contract (see attached) provides that the County may elect to direct FloridAffinity to subcontract pre- acquisition due diligence services, including: land surveys; title reports; appraisals; and environmental audits. Funding for these subcontracted services would be from environmental land acquisition bond referendum monies. In some cases, these services will be cost -shared as part of approved state acquisition program funding. The Budget Department has indicated that inter -fund borrowing could make funds available for pre-acquisition services prior to bonds issuance, whereby inter - fund reimbursement would occur when the bonds are issued. The cost for each of the services will vary anywhere from +$2,000 to +$2010001 depending on site specific factors. For example, appraisals may cost from $2,000 to $8,000, depending on the nature of the property being evaluated. Likewise, land surveys may vary from a few thousand dollars upwards to +$20,000, depending on variables such as the size of a property, survey history, wetland boundary surveying, sovereignty lands issues, etc. Staff is requesting that the Board authorize FloridAffinity to subcontract pre-acquisition due diligence services on an as -need basis, contingent upon county administrator approval. 63 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 PnF.2 b BOOK 93 PAGE 227 ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS The primary advantage of authorizing FloridAffinity to subcontract pre-acquisition due diligence services is expediency. If the County elects not to subcontract such services through FloridAffinity, procedural requirements would entail staff issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) each time that a particular service is needed. More than one RFP would need to be issued for any particular acquisition project site, because different services require different consultants (e.g., surveying, appraising, auditing, management planning). RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners authorize FloridAffinity to subcontract environmental land acquisition due diligence services on an as -need basis, contingent upon county administrator approval. - ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) authorized FloridAffinity to subcontract pre-acquisition due diligence services on an as -needed basis, contingent upon County Administrator's approval. AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE EQIIENTWITH FUNDS FROM THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PREPAREDNESS & ASSISTANCE TRUST FUND GRANT The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/24/94: TO: Honorable Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Jim ChandleF, Cpunty Administrator FROM: Doug Wright, Director Department -of Emergency Services DATE: August 24, 1994 SUBJECT: Authorization to Purchase Equipment To Expand and Improve the Emergency Management Program with funds from the Emergency Management, Preparedness and Assistance Trust Fund Grant It is respectfully requested that the information contained herein be given formal consideration .by the Board of County Commissioners at the meeting scheduled for September 6, 1994. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS In 1993, the Florida Legislature enacted a funding mechanism for the purpose of improving and expanding local emergency management agencies and other.. programs through an Emergency Management, Preparedness and Assistance Trust Fund. The funding comes from an 64 September 6, 1994 annual nonrefundable surcharge of $2.00 on every homeowner's, mobile homeowner's, tenant homeowner's, and condominium unit owner's insurance policy; and an annual $4.00 nonrefundable surcharge on every commercial fire, commercial multiple peril, and business owner's property insurance policy issued or renewed. Rules were promulgated by -the Department of Community Affairs, Division of Emergency Management, resulting in Rule 9G-19, Florida Administrative Code, wherein each county employing a full-time emergency management director receives, on an annual basis, an allocation of $71,924 in non -supplanting funds to improve and expand the emergency management program. On March 8, 1994, the Board of County Commissioners approved the recurring grant in the amount of $70,424. The $71,924 grant was reduced by $1,500 to $70,424 as the result of a deduction by the state for prorated costs to each county for a statewide satellite communications network for -all county emergency operations centers (EOCs). The Board at that time approved use of a portion of the grant funds for an emergency management planner position, office equipment to support the position, fax machines, computer equipment, EOC television, radar weather equipment, and a video projector. All the equipment has been purchased except for the video projector. Staff noted in the prior agenda item that the balance of the grant funds would be retained in a contingency account for later allocation during the fiscal year. This was noted due to the fact that any part of the grant funds not expended in this fiscal year must be returned to the state for reallocation to other counties who agree to expend the funds for emergency management programs. Staff is now requesting the Board to authorize the expenditure of the balance of the grant funds totaling approximately $37,000 for the following equipment to improve and expand the emergency management program: 1. Upgrade -weather system with 1.2 meter KU meter antenna, two -port FM3 KU satellite receiver, shipping and installation for $2,400. Equipment will receive enhanced weather images, measurements, and soundings from the new and recently launched Geostationary Orbiting Earth Satellite 8 (GOES 8) satellite. Staff is requesting the Board approve the sole source purchase of this equipment from Alden Electronics to preclude replacing a large portion of the existing $_30,000 county weather technology and equipment. Also requested is a converter @$500 to interconnect the large screen television to the weather information achieved from the equipment referenced above, for use by personnel in the Emergency Operations Center. 2. Two 35MM slide projectors with audio @$700 each for $1,400. The slide projectors would be used for public presentations and department training in conjunction with audio tapes which can be cued to automatically change the slides. 3. Two Omega 6 wireless remote units @$250 for $500. These units can be utilized with existing slide projectors and would eliminate the need to hard -wire remote slide changers over long distances in locations where disaster information presentations are given to large audiences. 65 �� BOOK 93 f'Auc F�8 September 6, 1994 BOOK 4. video projector for $6,600. The purchase of a video projector was earlier approved at an expense of $2,500. However, upon review after obtaining quotes, staff made the determination that the earlier price was incorrect and additional funds would be needed for this purchase. The projector would be used in the EOC, training sessions, and emergency services presentations. 5. Two laser pointers @$425 each for a total of $850. The laser pointers would be used in emergency services presentations, enabling speakers to point out and emphasize visual aids without having to leave the podium or microphone. The pointers would also be of benefit during Commission meetings when visual aids are utilized. 6. Laser printer @$700 to; be used in the Emergency Operations Center and as backup for existing printers when maintenance or repairs are needed. 7. Two overhead projectors @$400 each for a total of $800, to be used in department training programs and public presentations related to disaster preparedness. Equipment would be available to other departments when not in use by Emergency Services staff. 8. Two bubble jet printers @$500 for a total of $1,000. Printers are small and will be used with various computer systems in an EOC, static environment, or mobile field situation where information could be transmitted into hard copy without using a printer associated with the network system. 9. Replace the copy machine in the emergency management division with a new copier for $7,500. The equipment is available on state contract and the existing copier would be transferred to the Fire Division resulting in a ten- year -old copier now used being surplused. 10. Purchase approximately 15 tables @$300 each and approximately 30 chairs @$340 for an approximate total of $14,700. The tables and chairs would be used in the EOC when planned renovations are completed, or sooner if necessary. The tables now in the EOC are not functional in terms of emergency operations for use by the various agencies manning positions in the EOC. The conference type tables presently being used allow only one representative from each agency to sit at the Operations Group table, and when other representatives are present, they must be grouped behind the agency position. This creates space problems and personnel movement limitations in the EOC. The tables and chairs requested would be similar to the ones used at the State EOC and, if approved, will permit four individuals at each position and promote an orderly process for EOC operations. The chairs requested would be more comfortable and reduce fatigue for personnel required to staff the position for extended hours. The tables and chairs could also be arranged and used for conference room type meetings as necessary. M September 6, 1994 M M M ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Since staff has estimated prices for some of the above items, it is requested that the Board authorize staff to adjust the number of items purchased in order to expend the balance of the grant funds, in lieu of returning monies to the state to allocate to other counties for improving or expanding their emergency management programs. Alternatives suggested for -the Board to consider as follows: 1. Deny the expenditures and direct staff to return the unexpended funds to the State for reallocation to other counties to improve and expand their respective emergency management programs. 2. Approve a portion of the expenditures requested, and direct staff to return the balance of the grant funds to the State. 3. Approve a portion of the expenditures requested and direct staff to purchase other equipment with the balance of the grant funds, returning none to the State. 4. Approve the staff recommendation and authorize staff to adjust the number of items purchased in the categories stated in order to expend the balance of the grant funds in lieu of returning giant monies to the state for allocation to other counties. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Board approve alternative #4 which will improve and expand the emergency management program in the county. Emergency Services Director Doug Wright recommended approval of Alternate #4 as set out in staff's recommendation. In response to Commissioner Adams inquiry, Director Wright verified that any part of the grant funds not expended in this fiscal year must be returned to the State for reallocation to other counties who agree to expend the funds for emergency management programs. ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) approved Alternative #4 which will improve and expand the emergency management program in Indian River County, as recommended by staff. 67 BOOK 93 FAGS �-ju September 6, 1994 BOOK 9 3 F,tiU.E 2:31 ADDITION OF SIX NORTH COUNTY ROADS TO COUNTY'S ROAD The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/29/94: TO: James E. Chandler, County Administrator FROM: James W. Davis, P.E. Public Works Director SUBJECT: Requests from Property Owners for the County to Assume Maintenance of the Following Roads: 1) 100th Ct from 93rd St. to 95th St.(Vero Lake Estates) 2) 102nd Ct from 92nd St. to 93rd St.(Vero Lake Estates) 3) 56th Ave from 43rd St to 42nd St. (Ranch Estates) 4) 77th St. East of Willow St. (Fellsmere) 5) 79th St. East of Willow St. (Fellsmere) 6) 99th Ct. from 81st St to 83rd St. (Vero Lake Estates) DATE: August 29, 1994 FILE: MUNT.Am DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Property owners along the above subject roadways have requested that their unpaved roads be added to the county's road grading program. Staff has evaluated the roadways using the standard unmaintained road evaluation criteria. The following score results were assigned: 1) 100th Court 80 Points 2) 102nd Court 75 Points 3) 56th Avenue 75 Points 4) 77th Street 110 Points 5) 79th Street 70 Points 6) 99th Court 75 Points ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Assigned scores for 100th Court, 102nd Court, 56th Avenue, 77th Street and 99th Court meet or exceed the minimum warrant of 75 points. The 79th Street score of 70 points is below the 75 minimum warrant, however, when Willow Street(130th Avenue) is paved, the score will increase to 75 points since it will connect with a paved county road. Also, the attorney for the Fellsmere Farms Water Control District is preparing an addendum to the 1975 Road Maintenance Agreement between the County and the District which will add South Willow Street(130th Avenue), 79th Street east of Willow Street, and 77th Street east of Willow Street to the list of roads covered by the agreement. In July, 1994, the District verbally approved adding these roads to the county grading route. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING Staff recommends the addition of all six roads to the county grading program-. The grading of -77th Street and 79th Street will commence after the Board approves the amendment to the 1975 Road Maintenance Agreement between the County and the Fellsmere Farms Water Control District. 68 September 6, 1994 Public Works Director Jim Davis explained that his recommendation is a little different from'the one - set out in the above memo. The District simply is granting the County easements to give us authority to grade 77th and 79th streets and South Willow Street instead of amending the 1975 Road Maintenance Agreement between the County and the"Fellsmere Farms Water Control District. He noted that his recommendation now is to accept the easements in lieu of the amendment to the agreement with the District. Commissioner Adams advised that the problem is that we would be amending an amendment. We are in the process of drawing up a whole new amendment. Director Davis explained we are looking at some alternatives in trying to first put together the South Willow Street paving project. ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) approved the addition of the six roads listed above to the County grading program and accepted the easements from -the Fellsmere Farms Water Control District which allow the County to grade 77th Street, 79th Street, and Willow Street. LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH GHA GRAND HARBOR LTD. - STORM DRAINAGE STRUCTURES - I.R. BLVD.

The license also allows the County to drain runoff from the 53rd Street right-of-way into an outfall located at the east end of 53rd Street. Staff recommends that the Board approve the attached license agreement. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) approved the License for Use of County Right Of Way, as recommended by staff. LICENSE AGREEMENT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD 45TH STREET WATER SERVICE PROTECT The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/26/94: DATE: AUGUST 26, 1994 TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: TERRANCE G. PI DIRECTOR OF UTILITY ERVICES PREPARED JAMES D. CHAS AI C..� AND STAFFED MANAGER OF AS PROJECTS BY: DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES SUBJECT: 45TH STREET WATER SERVICE PROJECT INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. UW -94 -13 -DS BACKGROUND This is an area (45th Street, North Gifford Road, between 43rd Court and 58th Avenue/icings -Highway) where well water quality is substandard (reportedly confirmed by residents). County water needs to be provided. 45th Street/North Gifford Road is a master -planned line. There are 243 parcels included (platted and non -platted lots) to benefit from water service. ANALYSIS The area to be served include: Kings Highlands - 49 platted lots - 56th to 58th Avenues, 45th to 47th Streets. 70 September 6, 1994 Cavalier Estates - 126 platted lots 45th to 47th Streets. - 47th Court to 50th Avenue, Non -platted Parcels - 68 on the north and south sides of 45th Street and throughout the project area for a total of 243 lots. Of the non -platted parcels, 16 are undersized, 26 are more than .50 acres and less than 2 acres, and 26 are 2 acres or more. One hundred seventeen or 48% of the properties have improvements, including residences, mobile homes, salvage yards, and retail stores. Typical lot sizes in this project average .23 acres. One hundred ninety-one or 79% of the total 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. Lots not meeting these minimum standards are called __"undersized lots." Environmental Health Director, Mike Galanis, advises this project should be a high priority especially due to the proximity of the salvage yards, mixed commercial, and small mobile home parks. Glenn Schuessler, Assistant Director of Environmental Health, added that the well water in this area is of poor quality. The attached map displays the area to benefit from the assessment project. This project is to be paid through the. assessment of -property owners along the proposed water line route.. In the interim, financing will be through the use of impact fee funds. Engineering design services for this project will be by the Department of Utility Services staff.' RECOMI ErTDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve this proposed assessment project and authorize engineering design services by the Department of Utility Services staff. Commissioner Eggert asked if this project includes part of the extension that was requested by some of the subdivisions after we completed the Gifford system, and Utilities Director Terry Pinto confirmed that it does but there still are some other areas that have to be included. ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED, by Comihissioner Macht, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) approved the proposed assessment project and authorized engineering design services by Utilities' staff, as recommended by Utilities Director Terry Pinto. 71 September 6, 1994 BOOK 93 FAGS• BOOK 93 F-nE 23 101H COURT, SW WATER ASSESSMENT PROTECT - CHANGE ORDERS & FINAL PAYMENT - TREASURE COAST CONTRACTING, The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/23/94: DATE: AUGUST 23, 1994 TO: JAMES E.

UW -93 -29 -DS on May 17, 1994, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners approved and awarded the above-mentioned project to Treasure Coast Contracting, Inc., to construct a water main extension with all appurtenances to -provide service for all residences on the subject road. Construction has been completed, and the contractor has made application for final payment (see attached change orders and payment request). ANALYSIS All Indian River County requirements have been met; final clearance has been obtained from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The original contract price for this project was $22,811.20. Change order numbers 1 and 2 were necessary to meet the requirements of Public Works. In order to avoid cutting the pavement and because of limited right-of-ways, the location of the water main was changed to the opposite side of the road. This change necessitated more sodding restoration. This additional sodding contributed to the largest change in the dollar amount. Change Order No. 3 was required to make the line more accessible for connection to Phase IV Water Expansion assessment project. Change Order No. 3 will be paid from Account No. 473-000-169-215.00 since it will benefit properties to be assessed in the Phase IV water expansion program. Change Order No. 1 $ 734.00 Change Order No. 2 3,442.50 Change Order No. 3 1,135.00 Total $5,311.50 These change orders adjust the contract price to $28,122.70. This adjustment does not exceed the estimated preliminary project cost. The previous payment made was $20,530.08 leaving a balance of $7,592.62 including retainage. RECOMMENDATION The Department of Utility Services recommends approval of Change Order Nos. 1, 2, and 3 and of the final payment request of $7,592.62 as payment in full for services rendered to Treasure Coast Contracting, Inc. 72 September 6, 1994 ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously (4-0, Commissioner Bird being absent) approved Change Orders 1, 2, and 3 and final payment request from Treasure Coast Contracting, Inc. in the amount of $7,592.62, as recommended by staff.

September 6, 1994 73 �0 BOON BOOK 93 NAGE 37 In response to Commissioner Eggert's inquiry, Utilities Director Terry Pinto confirmed that these fees were unexpected. We were pushed around on this project by other utilities, the D.O.T. and our own county departments. This was a very difficult job to build partly because of the water table.

Vitunac, County Attorney DATE: August 25, 1994 RE: COURTHOUSE ADVISORY COMMITTEE CONDEMNATION REQUEST On August 18, 1994, the Courthouse Advisory Committee passed a motion requesting that the County Commission authorize the County Attorney's Office to proceed with condemnation proceedings against the Harshbarger property, which is the last remaining piece of property in the judicial complex. The Committee felt that the entire block had been dedicated as a judicial complex and that to allow inconsistent uses to be made of the property now would only increase the ultimate acquisition cost in the future. Judge Vocelle and members of the county bar association have requested the opportunity to speak to the commission concerning this matter. REQUESTED ACTION: Request direction from the Board. 75 BOOK 93 FADE « j September 6, 1994 BOOK 9 3 PnuE 239 JOHN H.

We feel that this property is needed in order to complete the symetry of the physical boundaries of the courthouse complex and we believe that given the growth of the county, this parcel will have a functional use at some point in the future, whether that be for expansion of courthouse facilities, additional parking or a small park for the use of those involved in court -related activities. Judge Charles Smith has requested that I advise the County Commission that the local circuit judges concur with the position of the Bar Association. Assuming the parcel in question will eventually be needed, the county can either pay now or pay more later. The Bar Association submits that it is better to pay now. Thank you for your attention in this matter. Pr 'W' c e , J hn . Power ent Indian River County Bar Association Commissioner Macht advised that the Courthouse Advisory Committee wants the County to purchase the property as soon as possible or, failing that, to issue a declaration of taking. 76 September 6, 1994 Commissioner Adams didn't consider the taking of the Harshbarger property necessary for public health, safety, or welfare. Administrator Chandler' felt we need to renew our appraisals if we go forward with condemnation. Commissioner Macht explained that the property is supposed to be the site of the offices of the Public Defender and State Attorney in the year 2020. Commissioner Eggert noted that the County Clerk is supposed to move also when that happens, but she never remembered that being discussed at all during the Courthouse planning sessions. After brief discussion, Chairman Tippin announced that the current consensus is that there is no immediate need for the property. VERO BEACH MUNICIPAL FIREMEN'S RELIEF & PENSION FUND The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/17/94: TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Charles P. Vitunac, County Attorney DATE: August 17, 1994 RE: Vero Beach's Municipal Firemen's Relief & Pension Fund The attached letter from the City of Vero Beach requests County approval of an amendment to the Vero Beach Municipal Firemen's Relief and Pension Fund Ordinance (Pension Plan), which would allow for a wider range of investments for the fund assets. Under the agreements between the County and the City resulting in the creation of the South Indian River County Fire District, firemen then working were given the opportunity of joining the Florida Retirement System or of staying in the Pension Plan. Once that choice was made, the fund was closed. By agreement with the County the City retained the sole responsibility and authority for managing the pension assets. In spite ..of the County's lack of authority over the fund, the County retains liability for any shortfall in the pension benefits. It is this latent responsibility of the County which leads the City to ask for the County's permission in the requested pension fund investment changes. The requested changes are allowed by Chapter 175, Florida Statutes, and are shown on the attached ordinance, section 3.13.1. In short the City is asking the County to allow some additional risk in exchange for some expected increase in return on invested funds. Requested Action: Request direction' of the Board's position regarding approval of the proposed City ordinance. 77 September 6, 1994 BOOK f'AGF. 40 aooK 93 F,,1GE 241 Vero Beach City Manager Tom Nason presented the City's position.
