SEBASTIAN RIVER IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT www.sebastianriverid.org PUBLISH: INDIAN RIVER PRESS JOURNAL 00/00/2019 Office of the INDIAN RIVER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Jason E. Brown, County Administrator Michael C. Zito, Assistant County Administrator MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners FROM: Brian Sullivan Legislative Affairs & Communications Manager DATE: October 9, 2019 SUBJECT: Resolution Requesting the Legislature Enact a General Bill Amending Boundary Line between Indian River County and St. Lucie County BACKGROUND Oskar and Gretchen Szentirmai own the property located at 2498 S. Highway A1A, which is located on the east side of Highway. A1A (the "Szentirmai property"). Part of the Szentirmai property is in Indian River County and part of the Szentirmai property is in St. Lucie County. Back in 1991, St. Lucie County and Indian River County entered into an Agreement Regarding Construction of Home on St. Lucie County and Indian River County Line (the "Agreement"), which addressed issues pertaining to the development of the Szentirmai property, including permitting, impact fees and concurrency. The Agreement, however, did not address issues relating to the provision of services to the Szentirmai property. Oskar Szentirmai has recently reached out to Indian River County, St. Lucie County and Senator Debbie Mayfield about the enactment of a boundary change, which would allow for the entire Szentirmai property to be located in Indian River County. The boundary change would assist in eliminating any confusion about the provision of services to the Szentirmai property. County staff has had initial discussions with St. Lucie County staff about the boundary change. In order to make a boundary change more equitable, as part of those discussions, we have examined having the properties located on the west side of Highway A1A, located between Highway AIA and the Indian River Lagoon, be switched to being in St. Lucie County. SBM Associates, LLC owns the property on the west side of Highway A1A. St. Lucie County has reached out to the representatives of SBM Associates, LLC who have indicated their initial support of the boundary change. 2 County staff has reached out to the School District of Indian River County, the Indian River County Mosquito Control District and the Indian River County Hospital District staffs and have received initial support for the boundary change. At the September 17th meeting of the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners, the Board voted to support the statutory boundary change, authorized staff to draft a resolution in support of the boundary change and further authorized County staff to take any other actions necessary to assist in the boundary change process. Pursuant to the Board's direction, County staff has drafted the attached resolution. Any county line boundary change can only be effective upon the enactment of a general law by the Florida Legislature. FUNDING Based upon the taxable value of the property located on the east and west sides of Highway Al A, the boundary change will have minimal fiscal impact on Indian River County. RECOMMENDATION The County Administrator recommends that the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners approve the resolution which requests the Florida Legislature enact a general law reflecting the county line boundary change. ATTACHMENT Property Map 3 A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, REQUESTING THE LEGISLATURE APPROVE LEGISLATION WHICH AMENDS THE STATUTORY BOUNDARY LINE BETWEEN INDIAN RIVER COUNTY AND ST. LUCIE COUNTY WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners for Indian River County desires to complete a land swap with St. Lucie County to bring two parcels of land completely within each respective county. WHEREAS, the property located at 2498 S. Highway AIA, which is located on the east side of Highway A1A, lies in both Indian River County and St. Lucie County; and WHEREAS, in 1991, Indian River County and St. Lucie County entered into an agreement regarding construction of a home at 2498 S. Highway A1A which addressed issues related to the development of the property but did not address issues relating to the provision of services to the property; and WHEREAS, the owners of the property located at 2498 S. Highway A1A approached Indian River County, St. Lucie County, and members of the Florida Legislature requesting a statutory boundary change which would assist in eliminating any confusion about the provision of services to the property; and WHEREAS, Indian River County staff has discussed the issue with St. Lucie County staff and determined, to make the boundary change more equitable, the properties located on the west side of Highway A1A, located between Highway A1A and the Indian River Lagoon, should be transferred to St. Lucie County; and WHEREAS, Indian River County has determined the boundary change will have minimal impact on Indian River County, while eliminating confusion as to the provision of services to the property located at 2498 S. Highway A1A; and WHEREAS, any boundary change must be enacted by the Florida Legislature through the enactment of a general bill. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE INDIAN RIVER COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS THAT: Section 1. The above "WHEREAS" clauses are true and correct, and hereby adopted as findings of this Board. Section 2. The Board of County Commissioners hereby requests the Florida Legislature enact legislation which transfers the property located at 2498 S. Highway A1A to Indian River County and which transfers the property located within Round Island Plantation on the west side of Highway AIA, between Highway AIA and the Indian River Lagoon, to St. Lucie County. 4 Section 3. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon adoption. The foregoing resolution was moved for adoption by Commissioner and seconded by Commissioner , and, upon being put to a vote, the vote was as follows: Chairman Bob Solari Vice -Chairman Susan Adams Commissioner Joseph E. Flescher Commissioner Tim Zorc Commissioner Peter D. O'Bryan The Chairman thereupon declared the resolution duly passed and adopted this day of , 2019. ATTEST: Jeffrey R. Smith, Clerk of Court and Comptroller By: Deputy Clerk Approved as to form and legal sufficiency: By: County Attorney 5 INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA MEMORANDUM TO: Jason E. Brown; County Administrator THROUGH: Roland DeBlois, AICP; Community Development Director FROM: Scott McAdam, Building Official DATE: October 6, 2019 SUBJECT: Request to Waive Bid Process for Supplemental Building Inspection Services for Fiscal Year 2019/2020 It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 15, 2019. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS For the past number of years, the County has relied on supplemental building inspection services to handle increased inspection loads even as the County continues to seek hiring additional inspectors. The County does not have existing bid awards with any such companies, and therefore is limited to authorizations of $75,000 per company unless the Board waives the bid process. As a result, for the past three fiscal years the Board has approved waiving the bid process for qualified supplemental building inspection service providers. Because authorizations per company will exceed the $75,000 limit during the 2019/2020 fiscal year, staff is again seeking Board approval to waive the bid process for this fiscal year. ANALYSIS The Building Department continues to experience a steady increase in permit and inspection activity. This increased demand and the desired level of customer service have created the need for increased inspections which are unable to be met by current staffing. The County has advertised and diligently searched for additional inspectors for the past 48 months, with some success, although a full team of inspectors has not yet been filled. Staff has confirmed that many Florida counties are still in the same difficult hiring situation and some jurisdictions have significant unfilled position vacancies. In fact, supplemental providers are also having difficulty fulfilling demand and it is in the County's interest to have a pool of supplemental providers to use. Staff is currently working on increasing the pool of supplemental providers. It is anticipated that the County will need to continue relying on supplemental inspection services during the newly started fiscal year. Accordingly, the County has budgeted $850,000 for such services for fiscal year 2019/2020. 7 Currently, the County uses the services of GFA International by piggy -backing off of a contract for inspection services with the Town of Jupiter and uses the services of Calvin, Giordano & Associates by piggy -backing off of a contract for inspection services with the City of Cape Coral. The County also uses the services of MT Causley via a purchase order based on an agreement executed by the Building Division dated March 13, 2014. That agreement was extended by the County (ratified by the Board) through September 30, 2020. Staff is requesting Board permission to waive the formal bidding process for fiscal year 2019/2020 for MT Causley, GFA International, Calvin, Giordano & Associates, and other qualified supplemental providers as needed. In addition, staff requests that the Board authorize the Purchasing Manager, after approval by the Budget Office, to approve purchase orders and change orders for authorized firms up to the available budgeted amount. FUNDING The County has budgeted $850,000 for such services for fiscal year 2019/2020 in account 44123324-033470 Building Division/Contracted Labor Services. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board waive the bid process requirement for supplemental building inspection services for the 2019/2020 fiscal year and authorize the Purchasing Manager, after approval by the Budget Office, to approve purchase orders and change orders for authorized firms up to the available budgeted amount. 8 MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Phil Matson, AICP; MPO Staff Director FROM: William K. DeBraal, Deputy County Attorney DATE: October 8, 2019 SUBJECT: Extension of Lease Agreement with the Senior Resource Association for the Transit Administration Facility It is requested that the information herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 15, 2019.

SRA uses the 43rd Avenue facility under a lease that was approved by the Board of County Commissioners effective June 1, 2012, for a 5 -year term at $1.00 per year. That lease was amended on August 16, 2016, to include necessary federal clauses relating to the federal interest in the facility and extended for an additional two year period, expiring on May 31, 2019.

Brown, County Administrator Michael C. Zito, Assistant County Administrator Kevin Kirwin, Director Parks & Conservation Resources From: Beth Powell, Assistant Director. Parks & Conservation Resources Subject: Funding Award from the Indian River Lagoon Council — National Estuary Program for the Lost Tree Islands Conservation Area DESRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS The Lost Tree Islands Conservation Area (LTICA) was purchased in 2003 with funds from the Florida Communities Trust. The 508 -acre site is located in the Central Indian River Lagoon (IRL) approximately 0.75 miles north of the SR 60 boat launch on the barrier island. In 2002 the Town of Indian River Shores and the City of Vero Beach entered into an interlocal agreement with the County for the purchase and maintenance of the site. The LTICA is the second largest publically-owned island system that is protected in Indian River County, and includes more than 10 miles of shoreline habitat. The LTICA ecological enhancement project will be the largest lagoon -based enhancement project undertaken by Indian River County. The deliverable for the project will be a fully designed and engineered plan that will be ready for submittal of the required construction permits. The County will submit for permit approvals upon completion of the design. Engineered plans will include preparation of technical specifications to be used for project bidding purposes. The design will be produced to allow for flexibility in construction timeframes; thus the construction may be completed in phases based on logistics, and funding opportunities. The County will generate a Request for Qualifications, advertise, select, and award the project agreement upon Board approval. The project objectives for design and engineering of the LTICA habitat enhancement plan are briefly summarized as follows: • Site design that is resilient and versatile, and by its nature will be adaptable during extreme weather events and climate change • Water quality benefits through creation and enhancement of wetland communities • Establishment of endemic habitat, including, but not limited to: o High marsh habitat which is a rare resource in Indian River County o Strategically located mangrove wetlands o Maritime hammock habitat o Salt flats and open sandy beaches for shorebird nesting o Seagrass habitat (based on appropriateness and feasibility) 18 Page two October 8, 2019 Funding Award from the Indian River Lagoon Council — National Estuary Program for the Lost Tree.

PROJECT TITLE: Lost Tree Islands Conservation Area Ecological Enhancement Plan Design and Engineering II. INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: Serious threats to the health of the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) include reduced water quality due to manmade hydrologic changes, projected impacts due to extreme weather events and climate change, non -point source pollution, loss and fragmentation of habitats, overuse/overharvest of resources, and the continued invasion by invasive exotic species. Less apparent forms of direct habitat loss also impact the IRL. For example, more than 40,000 acres of highly productive salt marsh and mangrove marsh have been converted into mosquito impoundments. Both the productivity and the nursery habitat value of impounded marshes are lost to the rest of the IRL. Recent storms such as Hurricane Matthew (2016) and Irma (2017) have resulted in significant damage to developed and undeveloped lands within, and abutting, the Lagoon. Most recent studies and models indicate that there will continue to be an increase in the frequency of hurricane landfalls in the southeastern US. Anticipated impacts from hurricanes to Lagoon habitats include excessive pollutant loading from large volumes of stormwater runoff, algal blooms, fish and invertebrate mortality, aquatic animal displacements, large scale releases of chemical pollutants and debris, and exacerbated spread of exotic species by colonization of scoured areas. It is fortunate that many ecological components of estuaries and coastal systems, although initially severely altered by hurricane damage, appear to be resilient to the acute effects of periodic hurricanes. The concern, however, is how to take actions that bolster resiliency and sustainability of these systems as the frequency of these storms increases and there is reduced time for recovery. This issue is further complicated by anticipated sea level rise and other climate change related effects such as increases in ambient water temperatures. Impacts from sea level rise will directly affect the ecology, hydrodynamics, circulation patterns, depth and salinity of the IRL. Fringing mangrove communities serve to stabilize sediments and provide habitat and nursery area for numerous fish and invertebrates. These mangrove communities have adapted to maintain their location along the interface between the Lagoon and upland areas by accreting sediment at a rate in tune with sea level rise (as it occurs at a relatively slow pace). Accelerated sea level rise could result in significant loss of buffering mangroves by outpacing their ability to accumulate sediments at appropriate rates. Similar to mangrove wetlands, seagrass beds are critical to the overall health and water quality of the Lagoon. They provide sediment stabilization and habitat for a variety of marine species. Seagrass beds oxygenate the water column, provide substratum for epiphytes and are a food source utilized by manatees, urchins, conchs, some fish and sea turtles. Increased water depths in the Lagoon may reduce light penetration and adversely impact the photosynthetic capacities of seagrasses leading to substantial decreases in seagrass coverage. Further complicating the loss of seagrass habitat, increases in salinity levels are known to adversely affect the larval stages of some estuarine invertebrate organisms thereby reducing their abundance and diversity. Loss of these invertebrates will dramatically impact the food web in the Lagoon. Biodiversity as a whole will be reduced as sea levels rise and warmer water temperatures and native species are displaced by invasive and other opportunistic organisms. Municipalities along the east coast of Florida Indian River County have witnessed the ecological changes in the Lagoon that are attributable to coastal development. It is becoming apparent that these changes are exacerbated by the frequency of extreme storms. For example, Indian River 32 County has noted significant loss of maritime hammock in several of our conservation areas as a result of frequent and sustained salt water inundation. Additionally, storm surge and frequent high water events are facilitating the conversion of sand flats and herbaceous salt marshes to monocultures of white mangroves thus reducing biodiversity. Loss of this type of high marsh within the County results in many detrimental impacts to the Lagoon, most notably direct habitat loss for wildlife and the reduction of critical treatment of stormwater runoff prior to entering the Lagoon. IEartoan lsl nc Lost Tree Islands Conservation Area This grant application will be focused on development of a plan for the three larger islands. It is the County's vision to develop this plan so that the restoration strategies completed may be utilized for enhancing the remaining areas within the LTICA, as well as other spoil island projects throughout the IRL. The larger islands and the wetlands within the LTICA may have formed through natural processes, however, these islands were used as spoil deposition sites as part of the Intercoastal Waterway (ICW) dredging. There is little native vegetation on these islands remaining; the majority of the islands are covered with Australian pines (Casuarina equisetifolia) and Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius). Three wetland mitigation projects have been permitted on two of the three largest islands to date. The first project is located on the northern end of Earman Island. This project was permitted and designed as a coastal wetland mitigation project. The project plan involved clearing Australian pine and Brazilian pepper, and allowing native wetland vegetation to recruit on-site. Maintenance activities were limited to eliminating seedling Australian pine and Brazilian pepper, as well as other 33 nuisance native species. Desirable wetland vegetation immediately colonized the shoreline areas, and the wetlands exceeded 90% cover by desirable species within three years of construction.

Construction was completed in late 2009. These projects ground the Brazilian pepper and smaller Australian pines in place. The mulch was used to minimize erosion. A portion of the larger Australian pines were killed using herbicides and left in place for perching sites. This plan included engineered re -grading to create submergent and emergent wetlands. As part of the engineered design, the soil balance for the site allowed for the creation of upland coastal hammock. The project site was vegetated using a combination of planted nursery stock and natural recruitment. Desirable cover of vegetation was achieved on this site within 3-5 years (the longer duration for upland communities).

Maintenance has included removal of seedling trees, and spot spraying undesirable vegetation. The challenges and successes that the County experienced through the implementation of these projects provide a solid basis for the design of a comprehensive plan for ecological enhancement of the three larger islands. The Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program (IRLNEP), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), the Florida Freshwater Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), and the Water Management Districts (SJRWMD, SFWMD) are on the forefront of planning and implementation of programs directed at improving the health and viability of the Lagoon. Groups like the Spoil Island Working Group and the East-Central Florida Estuarine Restoration Team (ECERT) include a diverse assemblage of recognized experts from all levels of government (including those identified above). This expertise has resulted in several successful spoil island enhancement projects that will be used a basis in the design of a diverse, resilient, and sustainable LTICA. The ecological enhancement of the LTICA will be used as an educational platform to engage the public and local schools so that they may learn what they can do to assist in this process. It is the County's plan to use the design of the ecological enhancements at the LTICA as a basis for other improvements that may be possible throughout the County. III. PROJECT VALUE PROPOSITION STATEMENT: This project will encompass several objectives. The project objectives for design and engineering of the LTICA habitat enhancement plan are briefly summarized as follows: • Site design that is resilient and versatile, and by its nature will be adaptable during extreme weather events and climate change • Water quality benefits through creation and enhancement of wetland communities • Establishment of endemic habitat, including, but not limited to: o High marsh habitat which is a rare resource in Indian River County o Strategically located mangrove wetlands o Maritime hammock habitat o Salt flats and open sandy beaches for shorebird nesting o Seagrass habitat (based on appropriateness and feasibility) o Oyster reefs (based on appropriateness and feasibility) o Expanded nursery areas for fish and invertebrates • Incorporation of innovative, low maintenance elements for shoreline stabilization • Incorporation of green technologies where appropriate and feasible • Provide for educational engagement on the ecological issues facing the Lagoon • Provide passive recreational opportunities that promote ecotourism, educational awareness, local responsibility and facilitates informed community input • Minimization of mosquito production • Elimination of nuisance and exotic plant species such as Australian pine and Brazilian pepper • Minimization of long-term maintenance, management, and capital costs IV. LOCATION OF PROJECT: The 508 -acre site is located at 27°40'29.90"N & 80°22'43.43"W in the Central IRL, in Indian River County. The islands are approximately 0.75 miles north of the SR 60 boat launch on the barrier island. In 2002 the Town of Indian River Shores and the City of Vero Beach entered into an interlocal agreement with the County for the purchase and maintenance of the site. The conservation area was purchased in 2003 with funds from the Florida Communities Trust. The LTICA is the second largest publicly owned island system that is protected in Indian River County and includes more than 10 miles of shoreline habitat. 35 V. SCOPE OF WORK: A. Initial Baseline Data Collection: Baseline data collection will be required to develop the plan. Based on the 1 -year schedule for the project, there is a need to collect site-specific baseline seagrass coverage data prior to October 1, 2019 (to fall within optimal time for survey). The County recently met with staff at the Smithsonian Institute to discuss the technical aspects of this project. Staff at Smithsonian indicated that they would be willing to collaborate with the County on the collection of this baseline seagrass data. The County feels that this is a unique opportunity to enlist their staff expertise to collect available information on the benthic environment adjacent to the islands. Field data collected by their staff will benefit both the County, as well as the Smithsonian's on-going research in the Lagoon. As depicted on the general rendering of available SJRWMD seagrass data there is limited covera e within, and adjacent to, the LTICA. ..:J - D'I Eardiir award] -a: n=om 7VT'Ga7 _c.Av � IZ • �+i .-HCS 4�L0.t 6A P.4a}'y 14 j' Legend 2017 SJRWt7D Seagrass Data • - , 4ayrznn.fz�: 5earana.Ca., ^aa Mapped Seagrass in Proximity to the LTICA 36 There are two objectives related to seagrass coverage in the IRL that the County intends to incorporate into the design and engineering of the LTICA plan: (1) planning to ensure that project implementation is beneficial to the existing adjacent seagrass areas; and (2) planning to identify potential areas where seagrass coverage adjacent to the islands may be enhanced. B. Procurement of Contractor: The administrative process of procuring a design engineer for the project will be another element scheduled prior to the October 1, 2019 initiation of the grant period. It is the County's plan to generate a Request for Proposal, advertise, select, and award the project agreement with a Notice to Proceed of October 1, 2019. Upon notification a grant award for the project, staff will work closely with the IRLNEP to ensure that all necessary procurement guidelines are followed. C. Additional Baseline Data Collection: Additional baseline data would be collected upon initiation of the grant period. It is anticipated that the data collection will include, at minimum: • Topographic and bathymetric survey: The County has collected limited topographic information as part of previous mitigation projects completed. Using County LIDAR, as well as additional field survey, additional topographic data will be collected for use in project design. As part of the due diligence for the project, the County contacted the SJRWMD and received bathymetric data that will be very useful in project design. This information may be supplemented with data from the US Corps of Engineers (COE) and the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND). Upon evaluation of data received, the County will arrange for additional bathymetric survey for selected areas along the LTICA shoreline to provide sufficient information for project design. The completion of the baseline seagrass survey also will provide input into this process. • Vegetative cover mapping: As mentioned previously, the majority of the three larger islands is vegetated with exotic species. The County will conduct field survey to identify any small areas with larger native trees or significant areas with native cover to include this information in project design. In addition, the County will use a combination of field survey and aerial interpretation (using 2019 County Pictometry) to locate jurisdictional wetlands on the islands. It is presumed that the extent of wetlands will be confined to the perimeter of each island, however, the survey will locate the limits of all wetland areas as well as composition. The objective would be to incorporate existing wetlands and native vegetation into the plan to the greatest extent feasible. • Existing habitat assessment: The upland portions of the site are dominated by exotic species that provide limited refuge for wildlife. Mangrove wetlands along the perimeter of the islands provide significant shoreline stabilization and wildlife benefits. The County will complete a baseline survey to document existing wildlife use; as the enhancement plan is implemented this survey data will be used as part of the adaptive management of the site to maximize potential wildlife habitat. • Protected species data: As part of the regulatory engagement for the project, the County will consult with the USFWS and the FFWCC regarding listed species. The objective will be to evaluate the following: (1) existing habitat utilization in proximity to the LTICA; (2) wildlife data and documented successful habitat restoration efforts for similar projects; (3) methods for incorporating elements of protected species recovery plans into the LTICA habitat enhancement plan, and (4) permitting strategies for the LTICA project. • Hydrologic data: The County will collect available data on tidal fluctuations, extreme storm events, and channel/navigational information for use in project design. • Geotechnical data: The development of the plan may require collection of soil profiles in areas where connections to the IRL are proposed (for both ecological and structural aspects of the project). 37 D. Development of Conceptual Plan: The County will develop a conceptual habitat enhancement plan for use in regulatory and stakeholder engagement meetings. This plan will present a formative strategy for the eventual development of the engineered plan, and will be used to solicit input from various entities so that the County can maximize the ecological, recreational, and educational benefits of the project. The conceptual plan will also be useful in evaluating permitting criteria, construction techniques and associated costs, potential monitoring and maintenance costs and logistics, and compatibility with other long-range IRL planning efforts. E. Regulatory Engagement: It is critical to the successful implementation of the project that the final plan receives all required permits for construction in a timely manner. The County will develop a schedule for meeting with regulatory entities who will be involved in project approvals to streamline the eventual permitting process. This engagement will allow the County to incorporate any information provided by these entities into project planning and will allow the County to prepare permitting packages that contain all required information for efficient processing. Regulatory engagement will be a key component of project success from the perspective .of maximizing the potential ecological value of the LTICA. The County will reach out to experts at the various local, State and federal agencies to solicit input for project planning and design for issues such as water quality, habitat and biodiversity, and sustainability and resiliency. F. Stakeholder/Public Engagement: It is the County's practice to establish a robust public engagement process for large-scale projects such as the LTICA ecological enhancement plan. The Coordination with the general public and special interest groups will occur throughout the project design and engineering process. A schedule of meetings will be established so that the County is receiving input as the design progresses. The engagement of the public into the project serves many beneficial functions: (1) general awareness of the impending project; (2) provides a mechanism for input into the design process; (3) allows the County to disseminate accurate and timely information and directly respond to questions; (4) promotes awareness of issues involving the IRL and allows the County to communicate the scope of on-going efforts for improvement; and (5) encourages active participation in efforts to improve conditions in the IRL. G. Design & Engineering: The design and engineering of the project will be guided by the project objectives listed in Section II. Major elements of the design will include: a) Mobilization/demobilization, clean-up and staging b) Exotic species removal (phasing, methods and disposal) c) Construction phasing plan d) Site layout and grading plan (including soil balance assessment) e) Hydrologic analyses f) Erosion control g) Planting plan h) Recreational elements (trails, boardwalks, etc.) i) Notes and specifications H. Monitoring and Adaptive Maintenance: As part of the permitting process it is anticipated that a monitoring and maintenance plan will be required. Carefully planned monitoring plans are key to the successful establishment and long-term viability of created and enhanced communities. Monitoring data will facilitate implementation of corrective measures such as exotics species control, possible re -planting areas, erosion control; provide insight into the effectiveness of water flows and levels based on species composition, substrate conditions and 38 wildlife use; determine how elevations are affecting diversity and composition; and assess water quality as needed. This monitoring data will be used to document trends and to guide other restoration efforts that the County may implement along the IRL. Data will be available for use by others for research or restoration efforts. A detailed monitoring plan for the site will be developed as part of the design and engineering process. Baseline monitoring will be conducted prior to project implementation to document site conditions. It is anticipated that long-term proposed monitoring activities may include: > Photographic Monitoring: Establishment of photo stations to document conditions within the wetlands over time. > Vegetative Monitoring: Establishment sampling methods to document diversity and cover within the wetlands and uplands. > Hydrologic Monitoring: Installation of staff gauges as needed to verify water levels during monitoring events and other needed timeframes. > Sediment Monitoring: Inspection of the system to detect any areas of significant erosion that may cause problems in wetland operation. The County may also elect to conduct baseline and periodic benthic analyses to evaluate trends and compare to data from other parts of the IRL. > Water Quality Monitoring: As part of the monitoring of the site, data including temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, and pH may be collected. Samples to determine influent and effluent levels of specific nutrients may be included as part of the proposed monitoring to evaluate the level of water quality enhancement provided by flow -way created wetlands that may be incorporated into the project design. > Wildlife Assessment: Collection of observed wildlife species on the LTICA will help guide adaptive management planning efforts. Site management will focus on maximizing potential habitat by incorporating strategies enhance foraging, loafing and breeding opportunities. Monitoring data will be used to further agency efforts detailed within various species recovery plans. To supplement the proposed monitoring plan, an adaptive maintenance plan will be developed for the project. I. Educational Programming As part of the stakeholder engagement process, the County will develop educational information for viewing and distribution at meetings. This information may include educational boards focusing on challenges facing the Lagoon (IRLNEP Vital Signs), and informational materials describing the importance of the LTICA habitat plan, and specific ecological benefits.

Brown, County Administrator Michael C. Zito, Assistant County Administrator From: Tracey L. Wehking, Director of Library Services Subject: Sole Source for Envisionware 24-hour Library BACKGROUND: Library Services seeks to expand service to the South County area. Per the Master Facilities Plan for Libraries, it was recommended that a full service library be built in the Oslo Road area due to increased population and increased travel times for residents of the South County area to get to the Main Library, particularly during the winter season. Staff has identified a unique opportunity to expand service while keeping costs low by placing a state-of-the-art vending library in the Intergenerational Center. DISCUSSION: Staff began researching products available for dispensing books and providing access to patron holds that would operate with minimal staff intervention and provide state-of-the-art technology and a seamless integration with the aesthetic of the Intergenerational Center. The project went out for Sealed Bid, with a sole bid submitted by Envisionware. After review by the Purchasing Division, it has been determined that the issued specifications were restrictive, and therefore this item is more appropriate for sole source consideration. The Envisionware 24 -Hour Library is a unique product in the library vending market. It provides the ability for 6-8 patrons to obtain services at one time by having multiple displays and being Wi- Fi enabled to allow for downloading of eBooks and delivering internet access as if at a full service library. The Envisionware system allows for automated dispensing of hold items as opposed to a 2 -part locker system. Staff anticipates high usage for hold retrieval. The Envisionware system is ADA compliant and capable of serving patrons in wheelchairs and children with its dual public displays. The 24 -Hour Library also provides a 14 -bin automated materials handling system and numerous security cameras to provide support and ease to library staff. In addition to the unique features above, the 24 -Hour Library will blend seamlessly into the Intergenerational Center's aesthetic with its sleek, modern look and one piece design. Indian River County Library System will be the first library in Florida to have this state-of-the-art technology. FUNDING: 55 / Staff has obtained a quote from Envisionware in the amount of $166,770 which includes the unit, installation, staff training, and one year of service. Funding for the Envisionware 24-hour Library is budgeted and available in Library Impact Fees/Other Machinery & Equipment —GL#103109- 066490. Funding for service and support beyond year one is estimated at $16,500 per year and will be funded through Main Library's operating fund GL#00110971-034630. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board of County Commissioners reject bid .2020002, waive the bid requirements and designate Envisionware as the sole source provider for vending library services. Staff also recommends the Board authorize the Purchasing Division to issue a Purchase Order to Envisionware in the amount of $166,770 for the initial purchase and first year of maintenance. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Sole Source Letter, Envisionware 2. Quote from Envisionware 3. Rendering of unit in proposed location APPROVED AGENDA ITEM FOR OCTOBER 15, 2019 56 ENVISI h NWARE® September 24, 2019 Ms. Tracey L. Wehking Director of Library Services Indian River County Library System 1600 21st St. Vero Beach, FL 32960 Dear Ms. Wehking: 2855 Premiere Parkway Suite A Duluth, GA 30097=5201 United States 800 216 8370 US and Canada +1 678 382 6500 Voice This letter provides clarification regarding the 24 -Hour LibraryTM, EnvisionWare's unique self-service twenty -four-hour library branch. There are several capabilities that are available only from EnvisionWare as outlined in this letter. In addition, the combination of services is also unique. Even the architecture of the system is unique, offering the simplest operation that conserves power, maximizes reliability and delivers ease of service. Those capabilities that are available solely from EnvisionWare are highlighted in italics. The 24 -Hour Library"' is available solely from EnvisionWare in North America and serviced solely by EnvisionWare and our authorized service technicians. EnvisionWare has invested over $1,000,000.00 in the development of an ideal solution to serve the needs of America's public libraries. And this system has continued to evolve as we have improved the design based.upon feedback from our early adopter libraries. Since the initial installation of the first system at Pioneer Library System, our Company has implemented four major system upgrades to fine- tune the solution for the specific needs of our libraries. EnvisionWare's design is influenced by the operation of a classic branch, featuring a familiar patron experience. To the extent possible through an automated system, we have replicated the branch circulation workflow from start to finish and improved on services where automation can do some things better. Offering the broadest array of services in a 'classic library approach', this unique system provides a comprehensive array of public services: • Classic visual browsing of popular materials just as patrons would act as they enter one of your existing physical locations. Unlike foreign designs that are specific to a very different market, the 24 -Hour Library presents materials on a visible shelf. Patrons view the spines in exactly the same way they do in a brick and mortar building. They see the size, shape, title, call number 57 and other familiar markings on each item. And just like a branch, multiple patrons can be browsing the shelves at the same time. • 6-8 patrons can be obtaining services from the 24 -Hour Library at one time; Wi-Fi adds additional services for even more users. • Access to your online catalog for searching materials and placing holds that doesn't interfere with circulation functions. A separate, dedicated display is available for the OPAC so that users can search the enterprise catalog and place holds without interfering with users checking out or returning items. • Loading of materials from any location and return of items destined for any location. • Downloading electronic resources from the built-in 32 -inch touch screen and 2 -Channel Wi-Fi router. Just like your branches, patrons can search eBooks and download them directly at the system, without interfering with other users checking out or returning items. • Simple, easy-to-use check out with a familiar self-service workflow • Automated dispensing of hold items — If a hold item or items are available for the patron, the system will automatically dispense the items when the patron card is scanned. This works seamlessly, patrons don't forget their holds and they pick up all items on hold (rather than letting one title stay on the shelf until it expires because they just saw it on HBO.) You can also configure the system so that the patron must choose which hold items to dispense. • Support for a broad range of materials including print, media, bagged items, electronic readers and other irregularly shaped materials (model 340) • Dual public display to serve wheelchair users and children. Naturally the system is ADA compliant. Verbal prompts are built into the system and a wheelchair height screen serves patrons in wheelchairs as well as children that can't reach a standard height display. Self-service returns into a fully automated 14 -bin automated materials handling system — A complete sorter is built into the system that sorts items for each of your branches as well as by media, expired holds and items not circulating in the last xx days. • Public Wi-Fi access delivers the same Internet access that patrons experience in your other branches. 58 Op, In addition, there are unique services aimed at library staff: • Easy shelving and unloading — no special containers — items are directly shelved just as staff would in any other location. • Integrated RFID and barcode support for materials • Private VPN Wi-Fi for ad-hoc connection of staff laptops for special registration events and activities • Visual promotion from two LED displays • Lighted library promotional. signs • Four external security cameras, one internal diagnostic camera and a multi -week DVR security system. Should a service issue arise, EnvisionWare support can review the recording of the event and see exactly what happened without needing to visit the system. That translates to maximum ease of service and the dispatch of a technician that has already seen the problem. • Future -ready for dispensing of patron cards' • High performance router provides secure management of the system, 2 -channel Wi-Fi with VPN and optional content filtering. • Three Windows computing platforms: Main System Control, Program or Download Control, and OPAC • Centralized remote management • 24 -Hour support answered directly by our technicians • On-site same or next day support • Routine maintenance • In addition to EnvisionWare's nationwide network of field technicians and engineers, a backup network of more than 400 technicians stand ready to be onsite within a few hours of an issue. As noted in the proposal, there are technicians in the County. 1 The library card dispensing hardware is included however the optional service for registration is not yet available. 59 There is another unique component that can be optionally added, which is a credit card terminal for fine payment. EnvisionWare partnered with Polaris on the unique development of several protocols to enhance public service. These include an itemized fine protocol, support for an integral ILS deposit account which can be used for fine payment, scanning, faxing, copying, and printing, and a workflow automation system that integrates our Library Point of Sale system with Polaris. In fact, EnvisionWare provides Polaris Enterprise eCommerce, the replacement for Polaris' discontinued eCommerce offerings. Our credit card terminals integrate directly into the staff client. We can deposit funds into Polaris and draw from those funds. Our online system integrates seamlessly into the Polaris PAC. And for the 24 -Hour library, the system provides integrated, self-service fine payment to remove blocks for past due patrons. The only company making a free-standing self-service library that also offers an eCommerce system that integrates into Polaris PAC and staff stations and who is a strategic Innovative partner is Envision Ware. There is no other system like the 24 -Hour Library in the United States, except at those libraries where we have installed these systems. Aside from the combination of services and features described above, the architecture of the system has been developed over years of research to provide the most reliable platform that requires the least sophistication for ongoing service. And the low power design fits the needs of institutions that strive for green initiatives. The system requires only a covering to prevent direct rain over the system and users, a single 120V 20amp electrical out/et/service, an R1-45 Ethernet connection, and a SIP2 connection to your Integrated Library System. Even our service offerings are unique. All services for planning, installation and training are provided by EnvisionWare employees — we do not outsource these services to third parties. This means we control the complete customer experience. EnvisionWare experts will guide staff through the process from start to finish, describing the similarities and differences between this system and a traditional physical location. Our library experts will help you to adapt policies, interface to your Integrated Library System, and ensure that your staff is comfortable with the differences between a traditional library and a 24 -Hour Library. All systems arrive from the factory into our Columbus Technology Center where they undergo an extensive second layer of Quality Assurance. Systems are configured for the requirements of your Library and full tested with your settings before being prepared for shipment to your site. The system will arrive onsite on a designated Monday — ready to run. It will be operational on Tuesday and ready for staff training on Wednesday. We are onsite at the beginning, when a staff trainer provides the initial orientation and again for any logistics issues, then a team arrives for the installation. All members of the team have experience installing these systems so there are no surprises. When it's 60 Aso time for your: go-live/grand opening, we'll be onsite to validate the system yet again and to participate in the activities so that you have the assurance of a successful launch. We include comprehensive promotional materials, signs, press releases and other artwork to help you in advance and go -live promotion of the new system. These materials have been developed over time in cooperation with libraries around the Country. EnvisionWare maintains a full complement of spare parts in our Atlanta service center. As you can see, the system is unique, many of the capabilities are unique, and this system is solely provided by EnvisionWare. We control every aspect of the design and manufacture of this system. There is no other system as complete, comprehensive or with equivalent field experience and there is no other company with an established nationwide service network. Our customers have been so happy that many have ordered more. The best testament to the success of a system is a group of customers that keep expanding with more 24 -Hour Libraries. At least 4 customers have ordered multiple systems over time; some customers have deployed as many as 5 systems over the same number of years. And EnvisionWare has a Florida office located in Broward County. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM Department of General Services Parks & Conservation Resources DEPARTMENTAL BCC Meeting 10/1512019 Date: To: October 7, 2019 The Honorable Board of County Commissioners Through: Jason E. Brown, County Administrator Michael C. Zito, Assistant County Administrator Kevin Kirwin, Director Parks & Conservation Resources From: Beth Powell, Assistant Director Parks & Conservation Resources Subject: Jones' Pier Conservation Area Public Use Improvements — Project Update, Florida Division of Historical Resources Grant Completion and Request to Apply for Additional Funding DESRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS For the past two and a half years, staff has been working on the development and implementation of a plan to provide storm repair damages, public access improvements, and lagoon water quality enhancements at the Jones' Pier Conservation Area (Jones' Pier CA). The 16.5 acre conservation area was purchased in 2008 with a $3.1M cost -share grant from the Florida Communities Trust. The total purchase price was $6.8M and the project was a priority acquisition through the County's Environmental Lands Program. The property was purchased to protect the historically significant site as well as to provide environmental protection on the barrier island. After Hurricane Matthew in 2017, it became clear that the County would need to expand the management plan efforts identified to include protection of the site from future storm surge, which became a pivotal point in the design and development of the public access improvements. During this time period the County has increased the focus of projects that provide water quality benefits to the Indian River Lagoon through Lagoon Legacy Projects. The planned improvements for the Jones Pier CA project were modified to maximize water quality benefits in addition to providing public access amenities. The resulting engineering and design for the project includes a 4 -acre saltmarsh with boardwalks, parking area with pavilion and restroom, restored hydric hammock, 100 foot living shoreline, 1+ mile hiking trail along the perimeter of the site, and elevating the 1920s Bungalow Cottage. Hurricane related repairs to both the Bungalow Cottage and the adjacent, smaller house are currently underway. This update is to provide the Board with an overview of the current status of the project. In addition, staff will provide the Board with information regarding the successful completion of the 2018 Florida Division of Historical Resources Small Matching Grant that was completed in July 2019. CURRENT STATUS OF PROJECT ELEMENTS JONES' PIER CONSERVATION AREA PUBLIC SERVICE VIDEO #1 Staff contracted with Verola Media to create the first in a series of public service announcements for the improvements developing at the Jones' Pier CA. This video will be available on Channel 27, on the County's website, Conservation Facebook page, and at other locations that request the video, i.e. Chamber of Commerce, Indian River Historical Society, etc. 66 Page two October 7, 2019 Jones' Pier Conservation Area Public Use Improvements — Project Update, Florida Division of Historical Resources Grant Completion and Request to Apply for Additional Funding 2018 FLORIDA DIVISION OF HISTORICAL RESOURCES SMALL MATCHING GRANT In August 2018, the Board approved the Division of Historical Resources Small Matching Grant for the Jungle Trail Greenway Public Access Improvements. The grant provided up to $27,550 with an equal match from the County to build a replica Fruit Stand and to provide educational information at key sites along the Historic Jungle Trail. The Jungle Trail is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the Jones' Pier CA is contributing structure, and also qualifies for consideration to be listed on the National Register as a Historic District. The grant funds were utilized to design and build a replica of the historic Fruit Stand which dated back to the 1920s/early 1930s. Design and construction of a replica was necessary as the original structure had been significantly modified and was in a state of disrepair. The Fruit Stand will serve as an anchor point along the Historic Jungle Trail, providing historical and environmental education exhibits for visitors to the site and passerbys along the trail. In addition, the grant provided the production of an educational brochure and 8 educational exhibits at key locations including Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge (both North and South entrances), Jungle Trail (at County Road 510), Captain Forster Hammock Preserve, Jones' Pier CA, Historic Bridge Tender's Site, the Kroegel Homestead and the Archie Smith Fish House. The educational displays provide connectivity between the County's various lagoon front Conservation Areas and provides educational information along the Historic Jungle Trail and Working Waterfront in Sebastian. The grant was successfully completed under budget with a state reimbursement of $26,734.45 and a County cash contribution of $13,169. Approximately $13,500 of in-kind services were provided as a non-cash match. HURRICANE MATTHEW REPAIRS In July 2019, a contract was awarded to complete the necessary storm related repairs to the Main Bungalow Cottage and the smaller concrete block house. The contractor is expected to have all repairs completed by October 31, 2019. HAZARD MITIGATION GRANT FOR ELEVATION OF THE 1920S BUNGALOW COTTAGE The County was provided with Pre -Award approval to hire a contractor to complete necessary engineering for the elevation of the 1930s Bungalow Cottage (Main House). In August 2019, a contractor was hired to and is finalizing the engineering and design for review by the State Historic Preservation Office and Florida Division of Emergency Management. Once those plans have been approved, it is anticipated that the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Grant will be issued, and staff will bring the :final grant award agreement to the Commission for review and approval. PREPARATION OF BID DOCUMENTS FOR THE PUBLIC USE IMPROVEMENTS AND SALTMARSH WETLAND All engineering and architectural design has been completed for all elements of the public use improvements and natural resource enhancements prosed for the project. Staff is preparing the final bid documents and expects the project to be advertised by November 1, 2019. LIVING SHORELINE PROJECT Staff has received notice from the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWCC) that funding is approved for the creation of a living shoreline along the Jones' Pier CA. The FWCC will provide a purchase order to the County for the living shoreline which will be a key demonstration point for 67 environmental education as well as to provide enhanced habitat and shoreline protection along the Indian River Lagoon.

Flescher to the 2020 Indian River County Canvassing Board FROM: Bob Solari, Chairman The Indian River County Supervisor of Elections office will be conducting a Primary Election on August 18, 2020, and General Election on November 3, 2020. As per the Supervisor of Elections (see attached), "If the chair (of the BoCC) is unable to serve (on the Canvassing Board), the replacement shall be one of the Board's members who is not a candidate with opposition in the election being canvassed and who is not an active participant in the campaign or candidacy of any candidate with opposition in the election being canvassed." I am unable to serve due to being an active participant in the campaign of another candidate. Therefore, I'm requesting the Board approve the appointment of Commissioner Joseph Flescher, plus a suitable alternate, to the County Canvassing Board for these elections. Furthermore, I request the Board authorize out-of-town travel for Commissioner Flescher to attend the Canvassing Board Workshop on Friday, October 18, 2019, in Orlando, Florida, plus any subsequent travel directly associated with his Canvassing Board duties, effective through the completion of the 2020 election cycle. Thank you Attachment: Memorandum dated May 30, 2019, from Leslie R. Swan, Supervisor of Elections, Indian River County 70 Leslie R. Swan Supervisor of Elections Indian River County MEMORANDUM TO: Chairman Solari, Vice -Chairman Adams, Commissioner O'Bryan, Commissioner Flescher, Commissioner Zorc FROM: Leslie Swan, Supervisor of Elections DATE: May 30, 2019 SUBJECT: FSASE 2020 Canvassing Board Workshop For the upcoming 2020 Election Cycle, the county canvassing board shall oversee all elections. The county canvassing board shall be composed of the supervisor of elections; a county court judge, who shall act as chair; and the chair of the board of county commissioners.

Check-in opens at 9:00 a.m. and the workshop begins at 10:00 a.m. and concludes at approximately 3:30 p.m. Due to the fact that the Canvassing Board Workshop is taking place prior to the selection of the new chairman of the BOCC, I am providing all five county commissioners with this information packet. As a reminder, the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners is ineligible to serve on the County Canvassing Board if any of the following restrictions apply: • The chair is a candidate who has opposition in the election being canvassed • The chair is an active participant in the campaign or candidacy of any candidate who has opposition in the election being canvassed If the chair in unable to serve, the replacement shall be one of the board's members who is not a candidate with opposition in the election being canvassed and who is not an active participant in the campaign or candidacy of any candidate with opposition in the election being canvassed. An alternate canvassing board member must also be appointed. The alternate member shall be appointed by the chair of the board of county commissioners and must follow the same guidelines for all other county canvassing board members. In 2020, there will be three scheduled elections as follows: Presidential Preference Primary — March 17, 2020 Primary Election — August 18, 2020 (pending the Governor's signature - SB7066) General Election- November 3, 2020 4375 43rd Avenue • VeraBeach FL 32967 1 Office. 17721226-3440 1 FAX! _L7.7.21770-S3h.7_a.vnrwsw.ttar.ei:ndi Memorandum Page Two (2) With the intense scrutiny that all Canvassing Board and Election. Officials are being subjected to, attendance is strongly encouraged. Please contact the Elections Office at 772-226-3440 by August 1, 2019 if you are interested in attending the Workshop, your registration fee will be paid by the Supervisor of Elections. There is space available in the Elections Office van for anyone wanting transportation to and from the Canvassing Board Workshop. 72
