Dear Mr. Gaske:
The Board of County Commissioners strongly support the
grant application for restoration of the Macedonia Black
Church submitted by the,' Indian River County Historical
Society.
In the late 1890s, Henry Flagler built his railroad
south along the east coast of Florida. He employed black
laborers to lay the bed and tracks and maintain the
railroad. These men with their families established homes
near the.railroad depots in Sebastian, Wabasso and Gifford,
creating small black communities. They also established
their churches, one of which is the Macedonia Black Church
which was built in'Sebastian in 1908. Today it is the last
remaining original black church building' of its style along
the entire east coast of Florida. The proposed restoration
would provide the Gifford Civic Progressive League with an
information center and serve as a black history' museum.
This building and museum will be part of a memorial park
dedicated to the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. The park and
the black history museum will further offer an educational
opportunity to the students in the County. Under the
leadership of the Gifford Civic Progressive League many
improvements have been made to the main business area of
Gifford. The addition of this restored' historic building
and its adaptive use will provide encouragement and a sense
of pride as this community is revitalized.
Z
truly,.

District Advisory Committee's
to Chapter 304, Life Support Services
Public Hearing Date to Consider the
As directed by the Board of County Commissioners on November 22,
1994, the Emergency Services District Advisory Committee met on
January 5, 1995, in a workshop meeting to consider revisions to
Chapter 304, Life Support Services. As you know, Chapter 304 governs
the process of issuing certificates of public convenience and
necessity as well as oversight of the various entities providing pre-
hospital ALS/BLS emergency medical transport and non -emergency
interfacility ALS/BLS ground transport. After hearing from current
certificate holders, current applicants, and potential applicants,
the workshop meeting resulted in the Advisory Committee recommending
the attached revisions and additions to Chapter 304. The additions
are indicated by underlining and the deletions are struck through.
At the same November meeting referenced above, the Board of County
Commissioners approved Emergency Ordinance No. 94-33 which expires
after sixty (60) days. The purpose of the temporary ordinance was to
provide authorization and conditions for certain adjacent county
ground transport providers to operate within the county without a
certificate of public convenience and necessity. Since this
ordinance expires on January 22, L995, staff requests the Commission
approve the date of January 24, 1995, as the date for a public
hearing to consider the Advisory Committee's recommendations on an
emergency basis. This request is predicated on the fast approaching
expiration date of the temporary ordinance; the need to ensure
continuity of certain medical transports; and the fact that the
Commission generally does not meet on the fifth Tuesday of the month
which would push the public hearing date into February.
Information regarding the proposed changes is being submitted to the
Board of County Commissioners at the meeting of January 10, 1995, to
allow sufficient time for review and consideration of the Advisory
Committee's recommendations.
Attachment
Proposed Changes to Chapter 304, Life Support Services
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by

approved scheduling a public hearing to

Support Services, as recommended by ESDAC, on
January 24, 1995.

SUBJECT: Bent Pine Golf Club Request for Special Exception Use
Approval and Minor Site Plan Approval to Expand an
Existing Special Exception Use [SP-MI-94-12-55/IRC
#94090147-001]
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal
consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular
meeting of January 10, 1995.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
Todd Smith, P.E., on behalf of Bent Pine Golf Club, has submitted
an application for minor site plan and special exception use
approval to expand the maintenance facilities serving the Bent Pine
Golf Club. The subject site is located at 5390 61st Street, in the
northwest corner of the overall Bent Pine site. Because the site
is located within an RM -4 zoning district and proposed expansion
exceeds 10% of existing building area, special exception use
approval must be granted by the county for the proposed expansion.
The aforementioned request was accompanied bya concurrent request
for minor site plan approval which has since been approved by the
Technical Review Committee (TRC), subject to approval of the the
special exception use request. At its December 8, 1994 meeting,
the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend that the
Board of County Commissioners grant approval of the requested
special exception use. Pursuant to section 971.05 of the LDRs, the
Board of County Commissioners is now to consider the
appropriateness of the requested use for the subject site and
surrounding area. The Board may approve, approve with conditions,
or deny the special exception use request. The County may attach
any conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to
ensure compatibility of the expanded use with the surrounding area.
ANALYSIS:
1. Zoning Classification: RM -41 Residential Multi -Family
District (up to 4 units per acre)
2. Land Use Designation: L-2, Low Density (up to 6 units .per
acre)

District
6. Building Area: Existing: 6,880 sq. ft.
Proposed: 4,800 sq. ft.
Total: 11,680 sq. ft.
7. Traffic Circulation: The maintenance facility will continue
to utilize an existing service road system within the Bent
Pine project to access the Bent Pine golf course and 61st
Street. Access to the site and the internal traffic
circulation plan have been approved by the Traffic Engineering
Division.
8. Off -Street Parking: Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 954
for off-street parking, the site is required to provide
parking at a ratio of one space per each 500 square feet of
maintenance building.
Required: 24 parking spaces
Provided: 24 parking spaces
9. Stormwater Management: The stormwater management plan has
been approved by the Public Works Department.
10. Utilities: County potable water and wastewater services are
not available to the maintenance facility site at this time;
consequently, well and septic tank systems are proposed.
County utilities has no objection to approval of the proposed
site plan.
11. Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS): The county
Environmental Health Services Unit has no objection to the
proposed site plan application or the special exception use
approval. Prior to release of the approved site plan for
construction, the applicant must apply for and receive the
applicable HRS permits for the on-site septic system and well.
12. Environmental Issues: No upland preservation or wetland
requirements apply. Environmental planning staff have no
objection to the proposed site plan or the special exception
use approval.
13. Landscaping and Buffering: Since the subject development is
adjacent to off-site residentially designated property to the
north, the specific land use criteria for a golf course
require Type "B" buffering -between the new building area and
the adjacent, off-site residentially designated area. The
landscaping plan is in accordance with Chapter 926
requirements, and provides for the required Type "B"
buffering.
January 10, 1995
14.- Specific Land Use Criteria: The applicant must satisfy all
applicable criteria for golf courses within a RM -4 zoning
district. The golf course specific land use criteria of
section 971.40(3) are as follows:
Criteria for golf courses and accessory facilities:
1. Golf courses and accessory facilities shall not be
interpreted to include freestanding commercial
miniature golf courses and/or driving ranges or
other unenclosed commercial amusements; .-
2. No major accessory use or principal building or
structure shall be located closer than one hundred
(100) feet to any lot line which abuts a
residentially designated property; however, the 100
one hundred (100) foot setback may be reduced to
normal zoning district setbacks if the use of the
abutting residentially designated property is non-
residential (e.g. institutional, recreation,
community services uses) and if a type "B" buffer
with 6' opaque feature is provided between the
building and structures and the abutting
residentially designated property.
3. Golf courses shall, to the most reasonable extent,
retain and preserve native vegetation over at least
thirty (30) per cent of the total upland area of
the course due to their characteristically high
water demand and heavy nutrient loads;
4. The golf courses shall be designed so that any
lighting is shielded and directed away from
residential areas;
5. Type "B" screening shall be provided between golf
maintenance facilities and adjacent residentially
designated property within two hundred (200) feet
of the golf maintenance facility.
Staff has verified that the site plan application satisfies
all of the specific land use criteria applicable to the site.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the analysis performed, staff recommends that the Board of
County Commissioners grant special exception use approval for an
expansion to the maintenance facility at the Bent Pine Golf Club.
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone
wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he closed the
public hearing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously
granted special exception use approval for
expansion of the maintenance facility at the
Bent Pine Golf Club.

contained in LDR sections 911.06(4) and 911.14(2) [see attachment
#4].
As a PD project, the process involved in review and approval of
this proposal is as follows:
Approval Needed Reviewing Body
1. Conceptual Plan/Special Exception PZC & BCC
2. Preliminary PD Plan/Plat PZC
3. Land Development Permits or Waiver Staff
4. Final PD Plat BCC
Since the proposed development will require only minor
construction, the applicant will be seeking a land development
permit waiver from the Public Works Department, as allowed by -the
LDRs. If granted, the applicant will then proceed to final plat -
12 P00K 94 rnv 57
January 10, 1995
approval upon completion of the minor construction items and
approval of the construction from the Public Works Department.
At its December 8, 1994 meeting the Planning and Zoning Commission
voted unanimously to grant special exception use approval for the
agricultural PD. In addition, the Planning and Zoning Commission
granted preliminary PD plan approval subject to Board of County
Commissioners approval of the special exception use request.
•Board of County Commissioners Consideration
Pursuant to Section 971.05 of the LDRs, the Board of County
Commissioners is now to consider the appropriateness of the PD use
based on the submitted PD plan and suitability of the site for that
use. The Board may approve, approve with conditions or deny the PD
special exception use request. The County may attach any
conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to
ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed preliminary PD plan is actually a preliminary plat
that will create three #10 acre tracts, each containing a 1 acre
homesite. The 1 acre homesite restriction on each tract will be
enforced through a restriction placed on the final plat and a PD
site plan. The PD site plan will -identify the 1 acre lots and can
be modified through the administrative approval process to move the
1 acre building site. The remaining portions of each tract will be
open space and will be restricted to agriculture, recreation, and
natural open space uses. These restrictions satisfy requirements
of LDR section 911.14(2) [see attachment #4], must be stated on the
final plat, and will be enforced and in effect as long as the
property is zoned A-1.
1. Size of PD Area: 30.0 acres gross area (before right-of-way
dedication)
2. Zoning Classification: A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1
unit per 5 acres)
3. Land Use Designation: AG -1, Agricultural (up to 1 unit per 5
acres)
4. Density: .10 units/acre
5. Open Space: Required: 60.0%
Proposed: 89.5%
6. Traffic Circulation: Each tract will access 17th Street S.W.
directly via private, unpaved driveways as allowed by LDR
section 954.10(3) for driveways in agriculturally designated
areas. Due to the size and frontage of the tracts, each
tract:'s driveway will meet the 330' separation distance from
other driveways as required in Chapter 952 for local roads.
Thus, the driveways will be treated as local roads for the
purpose of meeting separation criteria. Final driveway design
will be reviewed through the -right-of-way permit process with
any single family house constructed on an individual tract.
7. Stormwater Management: A conceptual stormwater management
plan has been reviewed by the Public Works Department. The
public works department will perform a more detailed drainage
review in conjunction with the Type "C" permit that is
required for each single family house.
13
January 10, 1995 mu 94 FA E 58
8. Utilities: The project will have on-site well and septic
tanks for each tract. These utility provisions have been
approved by the Department of Utility Services and the
Environmental Health Department.
9. Dedicat-ions and Improvements; Presently, 30' of right-of-way
exists for 17th Street S.W. which is classified as a minor
arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan. Minor arterials such as
17th Street S.W. require an ultimate right-of-way width of
100'. The applicant will be dedicating without compensation
30' of right-of-way prior to via the final plat to bring 17th
Street S.W. up to the local road standard of 60'. At a later
date, the county will need to acquire the remaining 40' to
complete the 100' width. The county does not wish to purchase
the future right-of-way at this time, and the proposed design
accommodates the 100' ultimate right-of-way.
Since the proposed development is a low volume traffic
generator/attractor and is located outside the urban service
area, the applicant is not required to pave 17th Street S.W.
No sidewalk or bikeway improvements are required, and none are
proposed.
10. Concurrency: The applicant has obtained a- conditional
concurrency certificate which satisfies concurrency
requirements related to the special exception use and
preliminary PD plan requests. Prior to receiving an LDP
waiver, the applicant will be required to obtain an initial
concurrency certificate or execute a_ concurrency
acknowledgement form.
11. Environmental Issues: There are no environmental issues
related to this project.
12. Buffers: Given that the surrounding area is presently used
for and is designated for agricultural purposes, no special
buffering is required. Since the 30' A-1 district yard
setbacks exceed the 25' planned development perimeter setback,
the 30' A-1 district setback will control. Therefore, no
special setbacks are requested, and none will apply to this
project.
13. Waivers: The applicant is not requesting any waivers through
the PD process.
14. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning:
North:
South:
East:
West:
RECOMMENDATION:
Grove/A-1
Grove/A-1
Grove/A-1
Single Family/A-1
Based on the above analysis, staff recommends that the Board of
County Commissioners approve the PD special exception use request,
with the following conditions:
1. That prior to or via final plat approval and recordation,
restrictions, as described in this report, be established
regarding a maximum homesite area and uses on remaining areas
in a manner acceptable to the County Attorney's Office.
2. That prior to or via the final plat, 30' of additional right-
of-way be dedicated without compensation for 17th Street S.W.

January 10, 1995 mor 94 59
Commissioner Adams asked for clarification of "homesite on ten
acres," and Director Boling explained that it required the home
parts, e.g.: lawn, yard, pool, house, etc., to be clustered
together and the rest of the property would remain rural,
agricultural, pasture, or open land.
Chairman Macht asked if that boundary was surveyed and made
part of the record, and Director Boling advised that it could be
recorded either directly on the plat or on the site plan which
accompanied the application. He commented that one advantage of a
Planned Development was a homeowner could modify the site plan and
he believed that this development would be controlled by site plan.
Commissioner Bird asked if their approval would preclude the
remaining acreage from being developed later into home sites, and
Director Boling responded that it would not; that the Land
Development Regulations provided that the BCC could release any
restrictions with a further Comprehensive Plan change.
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone
wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he closed the
public hearing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously
approved the PD special exception use request
with conditions as set forth in staff's
recommendation.

BACKGROUND
On December 6, 1994, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved Resolutions 94-156 (Resolution I) and 94-157
(Resolution II), which contained the preliminary assessment roll and
established the date of the public hearing for the subject project.
Property owners have been notified of the public hearing by
certified mail. Resolution 94-156 was published in the PRESS
JOURNAL on December 13, 1994. (See attached agenda item and minutes

The total estimated project cost is $1,804,740.12. The total
estimated cost to be assessed is $1,484,487.37, ($1,804,740.12 less
a non -assessed Master Plan transmission main cost of $320,252.75).
The total estimated cost per square foot is $0.149617. 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.
Ninety-eight and one half percent (98.5%) of the properties are
substandard or "undersized," according to Indian River County's
Comprehensive Plan and the County Public Health Unit, Division of
Environmental Health, which require that new lots utilizing well and
septic systems be a minimum of one-half acre. If served by a public
water system, the lot may be reduced to one-quarter acre in size.
Lots not meeting these minimum standards are called "undersized
lots."
The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the
Board of County Commissioners approve the attached Resolution III.
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone
wished to be heard in the matter.
Barry Gerstner, 1146 S.W. 12 Court, employed by Vero Machine
on 36th Court, asked if the water would be coming through the same
main as the water received at Vero Machine.
Utility Services Director Terry Pinto responded they were on
the same main with water from the same water treatment plant.
Mr. Gerstner quoted high levels of chlorine and salt from a
water test report by Perkins Products, the coolant supplier for
Vero Machine. He and others at the shop believe that the water was
not fit to drink and if this water went into his home he would
require an R/O system.
Director Pinto . assured him the water was more than safe to
drink, that the County used the reverse -osmosis process in the
water treatment plant, that chloride levels are lowered to a point
required by the Federal Drinking Act, and the water meets all the
standards that the Federal government requires. With respect to
hardness, they had to be careful not to make it too soft or too
hard.
Mr. Gerstner advised that he and most of his neighbors were
unable to drink the water in their wells, had to have water
purification systems in their homes, and most were not thrilled
about the plan.

E`��" ZJ 4 FA.,V. 68
Director Pinto again assured him of the health and quality
standards the water met, agreed that the wells in his area were
poor, and recognized that certain individuals have certain tastes.
He offered an analysis of the water at any time in an effort to
assure him that it meets all standards.
Chairman Macht asked for a copy of the Federal standards and
a copy of Indian River County water tests for information purposes.
Commissioner Tippin expressed great satisfaction with the
water he received from the same water main on Oslo Road.
Scarlett Beach, 2345480th Avenue, Vero Beach, asked when the
project would be started, when it would be completed, and wanted
assurance that her property would be restored as it was before the
construction. She also inquired whether it was required to hook
up, since she had a well and septic system that she was very happy
with and had recently spent about $1,000 to achieve that.
Director Pinto estimated the construction would take a year
and about 18 months before the first assessment. The assessment
covered the lines and the available benefit, but she did not have
to connect; sewers were not being installed. He further advised
that a video of the entire area would be taken to ensure that the
properties would be returned to their original condition.
Ms. Beach also inquired .if the County was planning to blacktop
her road so they will not have the water drainage problem they
experience now.
Public Works Director Jim Davis advised of the County's
Petition Paving and Drainage Program, but he believed there was not
presently a program for that particular street.
Sam High, 1925 22nd Avenue, Vero Beach, and owner of land in
the Oslo Park area was assured that this hearing was relative
exclusively to water expansion plan UW -93 -32 -DS. He referred to
the charts and advised that he was familiar with the area the
project is supposed to cover. He asked if the expansion plan now
cover land to the west of 27th Avenue, 13th Court SW. He advised
that he was opposed to projects to deliver water into areas without
paved roads and heavier population. He was assured that water
service for the heavier populated area was in progress. It was
suggested that he go to the Utilities Department so they could
clarify the project area.
Commissioner Adams advised that one thing that drives water
improvements is the Health Department, which will not allow
development in certain areas without sufficient water service, not
whether the street was paved nor the location or value of the home.

Director Pinto indicated that it was easier to put in water
lines before paving and many of the lots were presently unbuildable
because they were too small to have a septic tank and a well. He
believed it timely to put water service there.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously
adopted Resolution 95-09 confirming the
special assessments in connection with Phase

ADOPTION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS EMERGENCY PLAN
The Board reviewed the following memo dated January 3, 1995:
TO: Board of Count Commissioners
THROUGH: Doug Wright, Director
Department of Emergency Services
FROM: John Ring, Emergency Management Coordinator X
Division of Emergency Management --
DATE: January 3, 1995
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE INDIAN RIVER COUNTY
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS EMERGENCY PLAN
27
January 10, 1995
94
It is respectfully requested that the information contained herein
be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners
at the next scheduled meeting.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
On November 28, 1994, the Department of Emergency Services received
State approval for the Indian River County Hazardous Materials
Emergency Plan which was submitted August 31, 1994, to the Florida
Department of Community Affairs, Division of Emergency Management.
The submitted plan, consisting of over 800 pages, is measured
against compliance criteria established by provisions of Section
303 (g) of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986
(SARA) and administrative rulings by the State Emergency Response
Commission. The Board of County Commissioners' adoption of the
plan finalizes grant agreement 94EP-lX-10-40-22-014 between Indian
River County and the Department of Community Affairs.
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS:
Recognizing the threat that hazardous materials pose to both the
population and the environment, the State Legislature has extended
funding authorizations to reimburse counties for resources required
to update and maintain an operationally functional hazardous
materials response plan. As the number of qualifying facilities
subject to SARA reporting increases, on-site inspections and
population protection measures are determined and added to the
plan.
The Florida Administrative Code requires that each county
government have a current hazardous materials emergency response
plan that specifically defines governmental agency authorities and
responsibilities within the framework of the County's emergency
response. Adoption of the 1994/95 plan will serve as replacement
of the 1991 plan and includes the most current Extremely Hazardous
Substances (EHS) chemical storage quantities reported to the State
Emergency Response Commission. Indian River County currently has
sixty-one (61) facilities that meet Threshold Planning Quantity
(TPQ) requirements with twelve (12 ) other facilities identified but
not meeting TPQ requirements. _
RECOMMNDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the
attached Resolution along with the 1994/95 Indian River County
Hazardous Materials Emergency Plan. Pursuant to approval, the plan
will be disseminated to the various emergency agencies within the
County.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously
adopted Resolution 95-10 approving the Indian
River County Hazardous Materials Emergency
Plan.

Commissioners responsibility for disaster mitigation, preparedness, response
and recovery; and
WHEREAS, with the enactment of the Emergency Planning and Community
Right -To -Know Act of 1986, Congress imposed upon Local Emergency Planning
Committees and local governments additional planning and preparedness
requirements for response to emergencies involving the release of hazardous
materials; and
WHEREAS, each county within a Local Emergency Planning District is required
to develop an Emergency Response Plan for Hazardous Materials to become a
component part of the local Emergency Planning District Plan; and
WHEREAS, Indian River County's Hazardous Materials Emergency Plan has
been reviewed and approved by the Florida State Emergency Response
Commission for Hazardous Materials as meeting the criteria for such plans
established by the Administrator, United States Environmental Protection
Agency and the National Response Team; and
WHEREAS, this plan is intended to provide the framework for the development
of detailed operating procedures by first response public safety agencies
.charged with the responsibility of protecting the public's health and safety from
the discharge or release of extremely toxic chemicals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA that:
Indian River County's Hazardous Materials Plan be hereby adopted.

INDIAN RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL MEDICAL TRANSPORT
SERVICE - EMS CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND
NECESSITY RENEWAL
The Board reviewed the following memo dated January 4, 1995:
TO:- Board of County Commissioners
THROUGH: Jifa•Chandler, ounty Administrator
FROM: Doug.Wrigh! Director
Department of Emergency Services
DATE: January 4, 1995
SUBJECT: Approval of Renewal of EMS Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity for Indian River Memorial
Hospital Medical Transport Service
It is respectfully requested that the information contained herein
be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners
at the next regular scheduled meeting.
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
In January, 1993, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved an EMS Certificate of Public Convenience and
Necessity for the Indian River Memorial Hospital Medical Transport
Service. The certificate was necessary in order to comply with
rules of the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative
Services for .the Indian River Memorial Hospital to provide an EMS
service limited to interfacility advanced life support and non-
emergency transport.
The certificate was for a period of two years pursuant to the
Indian River County Code of Laws and Ordinances, specifically
Chapter 304. The existing certificate will expire on January 11,
1995, and the renewal process should be accomplished at this time
with expiration of the new certificate, if approved, being January
11, 1997. -
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS:
The Indian..River County Code provides for routine renewal of the
EMS Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity on application
by the certificate holder. This can be accomplished without a
public hearing if the Board has no reason to believe -that the
public health, safety, and welfare require it.
An application has been received from the Indian River Memorial
Hospital requesting renewal of the certificate. The EMS Director
and Medical Director have reviewed the application and EMS protocol
with the EMS staff and certifies no reasons are known or perceived
that would require a public hearing pursuant to the established
ordinance.
This provider, as with all others, will continue to be subject to
the authority of the EMS Director and the Medical Director for
compliance with state statutes, administrative rules, and the
Indian River County Code of Laws and Ordinances.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff respectfully recommends that the Board of County
Commissioners approve and renew the Certificate of Public
Convenience.and Necessity for the Indian River Memorial Hospital
Medical Transport Service to be effective for a period of two
years.
The certificate should specify that the EMS services is limited to
interfacility advanced life support and non -emergency transport.

January 10, 1995
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously
approved renewal of the Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity for the Indian River
Memorial Hospital Medical Transport Service
for two years and which is limited to inter-
facility advanced life support and non-
emergency transport.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATION BUILDING RENOVATIONS
General Services Director Sonny Dean reviewed the following
memo dated December 27, 1994:

THRU: JAMES E. CHANDLER DATE: DECEMBER 27, 1994
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTOR
DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES
SUBJECTS COUNTY ADMINISTRATION BUILDING RENOVATIONS
BACKGROUND:
In January 1994, staff presented to the Board a renovation plan
that would allow for expansion of work area for staff and some
Constitutional offices. This plan included the following:
1. Renovation of the Courthouse Annex and move Utility
Services into that building.
2. Expand Emergency Services into the space vacated by
Utility Services.
3. Renovate the storage area now used by Tax Collector
and Property Appraiser, to accommodate the Clerk's
Data Processing now located on the Second Floor.
4. Move Risk Management into a portion of the old Data
Processing area.
5. Move the Mail Room into where Risk Management is
now.
6. Expand the Tax Collector into the old mail room and
adjoining spare office area.
7. Expand Personnel into a portion of the Tax
Collector's area.
S. Move the Tax Collector's and Property Appraiser's
storage into the area presently occupied by Animal
Control.
9. Make minor renovations to the old State Attorney's
office building, to use as storage that requires a
controlled atmosphere.
31
January 10, 1995�c .F;
The Board approved $617,000, for the above listed renovations to
come out of the "one cent sales tax" monies.
As an alternative, the Board has requested staff look at using the
old Health Clinic for Utility Services rather than the Annex. The
following information is furnished for comparison nurnoses!
OLD HEALTH CLINIC
There are 4,981 net square feet in this building. Utilities
presently.'has 4,987 square feet in the Administration Building.
The VOA study indicated Utilities would need 7,288 gross square
feet, by the year 2000. To meet this need would equate to an
additional 2,760 square feet of new construction be added to the
building.
COURTHOUSE ANNEX
This building has 12,150 net square feet that can be used and will
be more than enough room to meet the year 2000 projected
requirement.
The above does not reflect the cost of furnishings. It is
estimated that furniture would be about $45,000 for the clinic and
about $72,000 for the annex.
Impact fees have not been calculated because we are not sure if the
City will classify this as a change of use.
In response to a proposal, in March of 1994, Gee and Jenson,
Engineers -Architects -Planners, Inc. presented a study on indoor air
quality for the County Administration Building. In that proposal
they submitted a complete retrofit of the HVAC systems in the
building. The consultant estimated this work to take thirty-eight
(38) weeks to complete at a cost of approximately $1,138,500 not
including any cost associated with moving departments and personnel
to other locations to accommodate the construction work.
ANALY818a
The Board approved $1,138,500, out of the "one cent sales tax"
monies to perform the above described work.
It is staff's feeling that the projects outlined above should be
combined :since major construction will be required for both
projects and to save on cost associated with contractors,
architect/engineering fees and etc.
RECONMENDATZONSS
It is recommended the Board authorize staff to release an RFP for
an architect/engineering firm and to proceed with the steps
necessary to hire a qualified company to perform the work required.

The Board discussed at great length the pros and cons of the
renovations as suggested in the memo and asked pertinent questions
of Director Dean and Administrator Chandler. Because it made sense
to do both the renovation and the air-conditioning replacement work
at the same time, the Board wanted assurance that there were no
other factors to be considered, such as the School Board renting
the building, the possibility of the City of Vero Beach collecting
Utilities' payments, future use of the Old Courthouse Annex, before
they committed to the expense.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Eggert,
SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, to approve
staff's recommendation.
Board members continued to explore various scenarios including
relocating some of the constitutional officer's offices to the old
State Attorney's Office or selling it to raise capital; drive -up
collection of Utilities payments, and whether those actions would
benefit the public.
They discussed the scope of the RFP and were given estimates
of planning costs for the projects. Commissioner Bird suggested
possible expansion of the Administration Building; Chairman Macht
agreed and further suggested consideration of a 15 -year plan.
Commissioners Eggert and Adams WITHDREW their
earlier motion and second.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously
tabled discussion for a month to allow time
for staff to bring back more information.

Protection has not budgeted any funds for the remaining four (4)
years of this project.
Alternative No. 1
Lobby the Department of Environmental Protection for continued
funding for this project so that valuable information may be
obtained.
Alternative No. 2
Take no action.
Staff recommends that the County.Commission write a letter to the
secretary of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
requesting that this project be included in next years budget. A
draft letter has been prepared for the Chairman's signature (see
Exhibit A).
No funds are required or requested.

Subject: FY 1996 Budget
Dear Mrs. Wetherell:
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of
Geology has initiated a 5 year joint project with the U.S. Mineral
Management Service to characterize the sediment resources within
the coastal waters of East Central Florida. Federal funding is
being provided contingent upon the State to contribute 50% matching
funds. We understand that the State has not funded this project
directly and that this years State contribution is being allocated
from other Department funds.
Indian River County will greatly benefit from this project because
it will provide information with regard to beach sediment sources
and our offshore geology. Regional approaches are necessary to
provide long term solutions to coastal erosion and this project
clearly improves our regional understanding.
The Indian River County _Board of County Commissioners request that
the Department of Environmental Protection include the remaining 4
years of this project in its budget proposal for FY 1996. We don't
want to lose a valuable project or the opportunity for Federal
matching funds.
Very my yours,

DATE: December 22, 1994
On June 13, 1989, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners approved a contract
between Indian River County and Marshall, McCully & Associates for Engineering Design Services
for.
1) 33rd Street (cherry Lane) $28,820.00

33rd Street (Cherry Lane) is currently under construction by the Road & Bridge Division. 1st Street
SW and 26th Street still are in need of at least one right-of-way parcel purchase each prior to
construction. Final right-of-way acquisition is expected to be acquired in the immediate future.
Then utility relocation and construction can take place. Due to permit requirements and requests
regarding off the right-of-way drainage problems from the property owners along these corridors,
the plans will require some additional information and revisions prior to obtaining a permit from the
I.R.F.W.C.D.- A permit from S.J.R.W.M.D. was obtained in 1990 and will expire in June of 1995.
The plans were accepted and approved by the county in 1990. The St. Johns permit will need to be
modified to coordinate the off -right-of-way requests with the St. Johns River Water Management
District.
W.K. McCully and Associates has submitted a proposal for continuing engineering services for 1 st
Street SW and 26th Street. Mr. McCully was the engineer who prepared the original design and
construction plans for the county. The fee proposed for these additional changes and services (copy
of scope of services is attached) is $7,900.00. This fee is to be a lump sum fee regardless of the
number of hours.
It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve the proposal for additional
engineering services for these projects in the amount of $7,900.00. Funding will be from the
Petition Paving Account No. 111-214-541-035.:51
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously
approved the proposal for additional
engineering services for the projects in the
amount of $7,900 by W. K. McCully and
Associates, as recommended by staff.

FINAL PAY REQUEST AND CHANGE ORDER
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. US -88 -23 -ED
BACKGROUND
On March 9, 1993, the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners approved a contract with Speegle Construction, Inc.,
in the amount of $317,000.00. The contract has expired by
approximately 240 days. However, during the expiration period,
temporary pumping facilities were provided for by the Contractor
and, as a result, the County has suffered minimal impact.
ANALYSIS
The delay was due to problems with the supplier of the pumps and
drive units. The pumping facility was equipped with an alternate
pumping system, costing an additional $25,000.00 ± to the
Contractor. Additional work items within this project, for
example, the deletion of two air release valves, were necessary.
The Contractor, Engineer and the County have negotiated a
settlement as the final payment of the original contract price.
The Department is before the Board of County Commissioners to
request final payment to the Contractor.
RECOMMENDATION
The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the
Board of County Commissioners approve the final pay request and
change order as presented.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously
approved the final pay request and change
order with Speegle Construction as presented

aspect, and to accommodate new advanced concepts and
specifications. Attached is one set of the 1995 Standards for
approval, and one copy of the current standard sheets that are
being revised, along with their respective revised standard sheet.

qWnffeithch , Chairman
Chairman Macht advised that the Old Courthouse Ad Hoc
Committee recommends that the County Commission provide funds for
a feasibility and cost survey and to write a grant application for
restoration of the Old Courthouse.
Commissioner Eggert felt it was important and favored it, but
wanted to know if it would qualify for funding from the optional
sales tax and whether there would be enough of those funds to cover
this expense as well as other projects not yet prioritized.
Commissioner Adams recalled that they had discussed using
excess courthouse funds, but Commissioner Eggert was not certain
there would be an excess.
Chairman Macht agreed and stated that an approval today would
only ratify the committee's recommendation, not appropriate
funding.
Commissioner Eggert said what concerned her was it said
"provide funds" and Chairman Macht believed that, if approved
today, it would be subject to availability of funds.

Commissioner Tippin commented that he would have to know the
cost, and Chairman Macht replied that it would come back to the
Board for approval.
Commissioner Adams and Commissioner Eggert agreed that it
should be brought back with full information.
The Board reached consensus that item should be brought back
with full information and a funding recommendation.
REOUEST FOR SPECIAL PARKING AT NEW COURTHOUSE FOR
MICIAL ASSISTANTS
The Board reviewed the following letter:
The Honorable Kenneth R. Macht
Chairman, County Commission
Indian River County
1840 25th Street
Vero Beach, Florida 32960
Dear Mr. Chairman:
City of Vero Beach
I093 -20th PLACE - P U ROX 1389
VERO BEACH. FLORIDA - 32961.1389
Telephone 56;-5151
January 4, 1995
At our January 3rd, 1995 meeting the Vero Beach City Council
voted to refer agenda item 6-2, concerning special parking places
for judicial assistants, to the County Commission for their
recommendation. Council will be contacting Sheriff Gary Wheeler
as well for his input on this matter.
This action, I believe, was' taken because Judge Charles Smith
personally appeared before the Council and pointed out the fact
that the judicial assistants have had special parking places at
the old courthouse and four members of Council feel the need to
explore the reasons why and if those reasons are applicable to
the new situation.
Your kind response in writing prior to our January 17th meeting
would be deeply appreciated.
Sincerely,
Caroline dnn
Mayor

January 10, 1995
MOK 94 PAu 87
The Board raised numerous questions such as:
What was a judicial assistant and why did they
need special parking?
How did they enter and leave the building now?
Was any special consideration given to them by
the Committee?
Did they have special parking spaces at the
old courthouse?
Did they work late at night; how did they get
to their cars?
General Services Director Sonny Dean responded to the
questions and Board members discussed the matter.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by
Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously
agreed that the Courthouse garage provided
safe parking, directed the Chairman to respond
to the City of Vero Beach that the Board did
not have sufficient information to make a
recommendation and that they believed it was
for the City to determine who should be
assigned special parking spaces on city
streets or right-of-way.
Sam High, 1925 22 Avenue, advised that he received a ticket
while serving on the Grand Jury and asked where jurors were to park
at the new Courthouse.
Chairman Macht replied that jurors parked their cars in the
garage and were escorted to their cars by a bailiff.
TRASH TRANSFER STATION AT FELLSMERE
Commissioner Adams opened discussion saying that last year the
Board had considered relocating the trash transfer station at
Fellsmere and had determined it was not feasible. The entry to the
transfer station, off SR -60, is very unsightly, and she suggested
the Board direct Utility Services Director Terry Pinto to have
landscaping designed to obscure the station and advise the cost of
the project.
43
January 10, 1995
BOOK U �''y88
Commissioner Adams continued that dumping on the roads had
increased and she believed they should reconsider the two -day -per -
week closing at Roseland and Fellsmere.
Commissioner Bird agreed the appearance of the transfer
station needed improving and added that cars were being abandoned
in the area as well. Commissioner Adams advised that the City was
working on the illegally dumped cars.
Commissioner Bird asked where the $130,000 was going to come
from if the transfer station was open for those additional two days
a week since it was not in the budget.
Chairman Macht recalled the budget hearings and how they were
able to save money and hold the millage rate.
Commissioner Tippin agreed that disguising the transfer site
was desirable, but had no sympathy for irresponsible lawbreakers
and believed the code should be enforced. He suggested that
mandatory collection was the alternative.
The Board agreed that everything possible should be done to
stop illegal dumping including signs and educational programs.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously
directed Utility Services Director Terry Pinto
to develop a landscape design to disguise the
Fellsmere transfer station.
Commissioner Adams requested that the Fellsmere transfer
station be staffed during the upcoming Frog Leg Festival and
advised that, the City of Fellsmere would bear the financial
responsibility.
BARBER BRIDGE PRESERVATION DISCUSSION
Commissioner Bird brought the Board's attention to a proposal
by John H. Dean, architect, to the City of Vero Beach to save
portions of the Merrill Barber Bridge on -the east and west sides of
the river. He knew it was a complicated issue and did not want to
get into City Council's business, but he believed that from
strictly a recreation standpoint and maybe a tourism enhancement,
that leaving portions of the bridge made some sense.

January 10, 1995 BOOK 94 PA �� 89
Chairman Macht felt it may be a very desirable thing to do for
the benefit of sportsmen and tourists, but that we leave it up to
the City as to the practical matters.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by
Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously
approved a diplomatic letter from the Chairman
to the City of Vero Beach suggesting that the
east and west portions of the Merrill Barber
Bridge be retained for the benefit of
sportsmen and tourists as proposed by John H.
Dean, Architect.
There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded
�cl carried, the Board adjourned at 10:56 a.m.
