I. ESSX Telephone Service Eggert, SECONDED by unanimously approved recommended in the The Board reviewed a Memorandum of February 6, 1996: DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 1996 TO: HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY CONMSSIONERS THRU: JAMES E. CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF GENERALS ES SUBJECT: ESSX TELEPHONE SERVICE BACKGROUND: In January the Board approved a contract with Bell South to furnish ESSX telephone service to our various locations. This contract was for loops (extensions) within a two and one half mile radius of their Central Office. Since that time, staff has been negotiating with Bell South for a rate to cover loops outside the two and one half miles, up to seven miles, which would cover the remainder of our extensions. The results of this effort has produced the same contract price for the longer loops as is being charged for the shorter distances. This is quite a savings for the County. ANALYSIS: Since the above action has caused a slight change in the language of the contract signed in January, Bell South has requested we execute two new contracts. One to cover the shorter distance and another to cover the longer distance. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the two contracts as submitted and requests authorization for the Board Chairman to execute said documents. In response to Chairman Adams' request, General Services Director Sonny Dean explained that the ESSX Telephone System is a central switch maintained in the local telephone company's office. There are loops or extensions off that switch which extend out to various locations in the county up to 7 miles. The 11 February 13, 1996 BOOK 97 972 BOOK 97 PAGE M telephone company has two cut-off points, the 5 -mile and the 7 - mile, or a 2-1/2 and a 7 -mile radius and a price had to be negotiated for these extensions. We are paying $4.50 for all of it which he felt was a very good deal with the telephone company. Chairman Adams commented that the contract on page 49 in the back-up actually reads 5 miles, 'so we need to make sure the contract says 7 miles. Director Dean advised that there are actually two contracts. County Attorney Vitunac advised that there are two very similar looking contracts and perhaps only one of them had been copied for the backup. Director Dean advised that we're signing one contract for up - to -5 miles and then the other for up -to -7 miles. Commissioner Eggert wondered why there were two separate contracts, and Director Dean responded that it was because there were two different rates. The up -to -5 mile rate had to be negotiated first; then they had to negotiate the up -to -7 mile rate. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the two ESSX Telephone Service contracts, as recommended by staff. AGREEMENTS ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOAARD AND ARE RECORDED IN THE PUBLIC RECORDS OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY T. Authorization of Out -of State Travel - NATOA Training Conference The Board reviewed a Memorandum of February 8, 1996: TO: Hoard of County Commissioners FROM: Charles P. Vitunac, County Attorney DATE: February 8, 1996 RE: National Association of Telecommunication Officers and Advisors - Training Seminar On February 7, 1996, President Clinton signed into law the new telecommunication bill which radically changes the relationship of local government franchising authorities and the cable industry. The National Association of Telecommunication officers and Advisors is holding a training session on March 7 and 8, 1996, in Washington, D.C., and a recent meeting with the County cable coordinating group, Commissioner Macht felt that it was advisable to have representation at the meeting; therefore, I am requesting permission for Commissioner Macht and me to attend. The cost for this travel is included in our office budget. Requested Action: Permission for Commissioner Macht and County Attorney vituaac to attend NATOA training seminar. 12 February 13, 1996 � r ens ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously authorized out-of-state travel for Commissioner Macht and County Attorney Vitunac to attend the NATOA training seminar i -n- Washington, D.C., on March 7 & 8, as requested. EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION PROGRAM RECOGNITION/CASH BONUS PLAN APPROVED Administrator Chandler reviewed a Memorandum of February 7, 1996: TO: Board of County Commissioners DATE: February 7, 1996 SUBJECT: Suggestion Program FROM: James E. Chandler X -501(f . County Administrator To implement the employee suggestion program it would be my recommendation that the program be oriented to quarterly and annual recognition. Each quarter three employees who have submitted suggestions considered to have the most potential would be recognized by the Board and receive a cash bonus. Once a year, additional recognition and cash bonus would be extended to the three employees whose suggestions are considered to be best from all the top 3 quarterly suggestions. The quarterly cash bonus would be an equal amount to each, perhaps $200 each The annual could be $1,000, $750, and $500 for the top 3. Obviously, there could be any number of variations to this type program in the form of the recognition and bonus amounts considered appropriate. As proposed, department and division heads would not be eligible. The committee to consider the suggestions would be the Board Chairman, County Administrator, Budget Director, and others as appropriate. SUGGESTION DEPT.

BOOK Diane Albin Lynn Williams Kim Massung » » » Kent Middleton Anonymous 97 PAjE 275 Chairman Adams briefly reviewed the above list of suggestions which had been distributed. She thought perhaps greater incentives should be offered, such as $700, $500, and $300 quarterly, with annual amounts of $2,000, $1,500, and $1,000. Commissioner Eggert received assurances that a quarterly award would not be given if there was no reason for it. Commissioner Macht wanted the suggestions screened against the backdrop of on-going programs. He noted three or four suggestions overlapped or were already existing. Commissioner Bird felt every employee who submitted a good suggestion should be recognized for their efforts, perhaps at a meeting, whether or not their suggestion was an award winner. Administrator Chandler thought that something could be done like that for all those who made suggestions. Chairman Adams agreed that all employees who made suggestions need to be recognized. She advised that the suggestions would be acknowledged with a letter of thanks. Some suggestions, she said, may take several months to analyze. Commissioner Bird felt the amounts in the memo were right for the first year to see how it works. He pointed out that if a suggestion comes in the last quarter, there would not be much time to implement the suggestion and determine the cost savings. Commissioner Tippin thought the amounts suggested by the County Administrator were sufficient. Commissioner Eggert agreed all employees' suggestions should be recognized and she was comfortable with the amounts as suggested by the County Administrator. She went on to say that while something might be a wonderful idea, there are other factors to consider in addition to cost. Administrator Chandler advised that each _of the suggestions is presently being analyzed for potential cost -savings and being screened in light of Commissioner Macht's earlier comment. Commissioner Macht felt that at the very least it has opened a very good line of communication with the employees, which 14 February 13, 1996 apparently was badly needed. He felt suggestions could encompass more than cost -savings; they could be procedural or personnel policy changes. ON MOTION ---by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the top 3 quarterly bonus awards of $200 each and the top 3 annual bonus awards of $1,000, $750, and $500, as outlined in the memorandum. The Chairman requested the program be reviewed at the beginning of 1997. _ -- PRELIMINARY BUDGET REVIEW (CLERK'S NOTE: THE BOARD AGREED TO ADDRESS THIS MATTER AT THE END OF THE MEETING.) HOBART/GIFFORD WASTEWATER INTERCONNECT EFFLUENT TRANSMISSION - MASTELLER. MOLER, AND REED, INC.; BROWN AND CALDWELL• CARTER ASSOCIATES9 INC. The Board reviewed a Memorandum of January 31, 1996: DATE: JANUARY 31, 1996 TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINIST*ATOR FROM: TERRANCE G. PINT DIRECTOR OF UTI SERVICES PREPARED _ WI MCCAIN AND STAFFED P OJECTS ENGINEER BY: DEP OF IIT SERVICES SUBJECT: HOBART/GIFFORD WASTEWATER INTERCONNECT EFFLUENT TRANSMISSION INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. -US -95 -24 -DC On July 18, 1995 the .Board of County Commissioners approved an update to the Utilities Master Plan with the engineering firm of Brown and Caldwell. This update was necessitated by the acquisition of the Sebastian Utilities. In an effort to maximize wastewater treatment capabilities/capacities, we instructed our Master Planners to review the connection of the North and Central 15 February 13, 1996 BOOK 97 rvG 276 BOOK 97 PAGE 277 Regional Wastewater Treatment Plants. By constructing this interconnect, we can delay the cost of expanding the North Regional Plant through the year 2001±. - To accomplish this, for a portion of the force main route, we propose to utilize an existing 8 -inch effluent line, which currently runs from the North Regional Plant to Sandridge Golf Course. The 8 -inch effluent line is due to be upsized to a 12 -inch effluent line per the Master Plan, and construction of the new 12 -inch effluent line will be included as part of this project. At the same time, we must install a new line from the canal right-of-way to the effluent receiving pond at Sandridge as we have been utilizing an existing irrigation line, which the golf course now needs to have solely dedicated to their irrigation pumping needs. From the Sandridge Golf Course south, we will construct a new 8 -inch wastewater force main, which will connect to an existing main at the Hawk's Nest Golf Course for conveyance of wastewater to the Central Regional Plant. For details of the Brown and Caldwell analysis, please see the attached letter of recommendation. The engineer for this project will be Carter Associates, Inc., as per our engineering selection and contract rotational procedures. (For details of the proposed contract, please see attached.) ANALYSIS The estimated project construction cost is $685,500.00. The negotiated proposed engineering costs with Carter are as follows: 1) Basic design services $43,000.00 2) Inspection 19,000.-00 3) Survey 11,135.00 4) Soils 1,580.00 5) Public meetings, etc. for Indian River 4.500.00 Farms Total $79,215.00 Contingency* 7,500.00 * To be authorized by the Utilities Director if required. The majority of the route of this project is within the Indian River Farms rights-of-way, and as a result, the District has placed some additional requirements on the project as follows: 1. The County/Engineer must hold a public meeting for all _- property owners along the route (approximately 19 parcels). - (See item 5 under engineering costs for Carter.) 2. The County must provide to the District a "monumented" as - built survey along the District's right-of-way of all existing utilities prior to the District issuing a construction permit. The cost of the "monumented" survey is in excess of $10,000.00, and per our survey contracts, any surveying services over $10,000.00 must be negotiated with our No. 1 selected surveyor, Masteller, Molar and Reed, Inc. The staff has negotiated a cost of the monumented as -built at $10,825.00. Please see the proposed contract with Masteller, Molar and Reed, which is attached. RE902-MMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve this project and associated engineering and survey contracts as presented. 16 February 13, 1996 ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the project and contracts with Brown and Caldwell, Carter Associates, Inc., and Masteller, Moler, and Reed, Inc..., as recommended and outlined in the memorandum.

(See attached agenda item and minutes.) The project is complete and was accepted by the County on January 5, 1996. We are now prepared to make final payment to the contractor in the amount of $48,141.09. (See attached final pay request.) RECON—MmATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the final pay request for this project as submitted. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the final pay request of Prime Construction Group for the project as submitted, as recommended in the memorandum. FINAL PAY REQUEST IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD 17 February 13, 1996 �o�x 97 PvGt-278 BOOK 97 PAGE 079 SEBASTIAN INLET TAX DISTRICT Chairman Adams advised that at the last Beach & Shore Preservation Advisory Committee meeting, there was a -motion to look into the possibilities of legal recourse and the ramifications of either joining with current lawsuits against the Sebastian Inlet Tax District (SITD) or initiating our own. She was bringing the matter to the Board's attention to advise that she had met last Tuesday with the District's administrator, Ray LaRoux; their legal counsel, Cliff McClelland; and Randy Mosby, one of the District's Commissioners, in County Attorney Vitunac's office, to discuss continued concern over the loss of sand from our public beaches. She called on County Attorney Vitunac for additional information. County Attorney Vitunac reported that two cases are now pending, one is a Department of Administrative Hearings (DOAH) and the other is an inverse condemnation action brought by the property owners. He advised that SITD had provided him with a large volume of information, and their attorney had recommended that we proceed slowly and not sue them yet. The attorney for the property owners suggested that the County negotiate with the SITD on the sand pumping and meet with him before filing suit. County Attorney Vitunac continued that there will be a SITD meeting February 15th and Chairman Adams' request for cooperation between the District and the County to put sand on our beaches will be on the agenda. Coastal Engineer Don Donaldson also attended the meeting with the SITD representatives and the County put all its cards on the table. The County was quite honest in saying that, despite the technicalities of these lawsuits which.the District may or may not win, we would like to do what is good for the taxpayers and beach property owners south of Sebastian Inlet. Everyone was candid and it was clear that, at least at one time in the past, the inlet had caused the loss of sand. It was uncertain whether the District could win because of the statute of limitations or because of a jurisdictional problem. His office has not looked into the vast filings for the last 5 years, nor have they been authorized by the Board to do so. County Attorney Vitunac went on to say that now the plane has been raised to a higher level to do what is good for the people and taxpayers of our community. At the meeting, they asked for a. -good faith expression that the SITD Board would go on -record at its next meeting to do something reasonable to put sand on the beaches, in order to avoid wasting money, which is the usual result when public agencies sue each other. Chairman Adams was quite adamant that we would recommend pursuing legal remedies, if we had to, if the 18 February 13, 1996 District continued to stonewall our Commission's reasonable request. At the end of the meeting, the District members agreed to present this matter to their Board and recommend some type of joint beach renourishment plan wherein the County would provide certain resources and thie-District would provide the sand. Commissioner Adams indicated her primary concern was with our public beaches: Golden Sands, Treasure Shores, and Wabasso, in particular. She wanted some sort of a partnership with the SITD. While they indicated the sand would be trucked, rather than pumped, she was concerned solely with the fact that our dunes are disappearing at an incredible rate and some reinforcement needs to be done. Turtle nesting begins in May and we are again running on a time line. Chairman Adams advised that Mr. LaRoux has now promised that they would try to determine an upland source for sand. On Friday, he indicated that he would like to get a permit for it first. Chairman Adams thought, however, that he first needed to obtain a consensus from the District to put sand on our south County park beaches. She also hoped to develop a partnership with some property owners along there, particularly Sea Oaks, Disney, and Summerplace, who have very serious problems. First, however, a commitment from the SITD is necessary and, as it moves forward, it will be brought back to the agenda. Commissioner Eggert wanted not only to hold the line and continue with this negotiation, but also to keep a firm time line. If we have not heard from them and if they are not working aggressively toward trucking that sand, then she wished to move ahead. In response to Commissioner Bird's question, County Attorney Vitunac's recollection of the SITD boundaries indicated that most of the property lies in Brevard County. The District was set up in the 1920's with properties that, at that time, were thought would be affected by the inlet. Commissioner Bird pointed out that therein lies the problem. Brevard County is on the upstream side of the inlet and sand is building up on their beaches. The elected officials are looking out for the constituents in their taxing district; unfortunately, a minority of those properties are in Indian River County. Chairman Adams felt that Mr. Mosby is beginning to understand Indian River county's predicament. She agreed we must remember that they are elected to represent the interests of the inlet, and not necessarily to represent Indian River County's interest. 19 February 13, 1996 BOOK 97 PAF 990 KOOK 97 P.�1.281 Relevant to the lawsuit, Commissioner Macht asked if the case could be tried on the basis that the loss of sand was not an isolated incident, but on-going, and that at least two studies indicated that 70% of the littoral drift sand is either swept out to sea or into the inlet, thus starving our beaches. County Attorney Vitunac pointed out that the District's position is that, according to the Supreme Court case which they furnished him, jurisdiction is no longer in Circuit Court for that type of suit. Commissioner Macht pointed out that if the beaches are replenished, you have, in effect, created a sacrificial beach with a sacrificial source of sand that would, sooner or later, benefit the entire coast. He indicated his agreement to move forward toward agreement with the SITD to move sand to the south inlet beaches. Chairman Adams indicated that the concern, at this point, was to try to restore the dune line which is being lost. Then, at some future time, they would be able to move toward some beach stabilization program. Commissioner Tippin complimented Chairman Adams for a big first step and indicated his readiness to have things move forward as quickly as possible. There was CONSENSUS to move ahead to negotiate with the Sebastian Inlet Taxing District and pursue legal remedies, if necessary.

Please copy me on the letter from your chair to the Governor expressing Your Commission's agreement to the four (4) County Consortium. Commissioner Bird advised that Okeechobee County has voted to become part of the Treasure Coast Private Industry Council's Job Training Consortium and it is now necessary to revise three of the agreements that have existed for some time. The agreements are basically the same, just add Okeechobee County. Two documents require his signature and one requires Chairman Adams, signature. He recommended the Board authorize execution of the agreements. Commissioner Bird assured Commissioner Eggert that the agreements would merely enlarge the council to include Okeechobee County and would not diminish our representation. Commissioner Bird pointed out that the PIC has been named the #1 PIC in the United States twice in the last three or four years. 21 February 13, 1996 BOOK 97 - PA GF 282 BOOK 97 PAGE 283 He felt they continue to do a good job and, hopefully, it would remain thus under the new structuring. Commissioner Eggert asked if any Federal reorganization has occurred yet. Commissioner Bird responded that nothing definite has happened, but it does look like there will be some changes. Commissioner Macht thought the Federal changes would be based on the block grant and that it would conform to community college boundaries. Chairman Adams thought this was a first step toward that Federal jobs program. _ ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the agreements as presented. COPY OF PARTIALLY EXECUTED AGREEMENTS ARE ON FILE -- IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD PRELIMINARY BUDGET REVIEW The Board reviewed a Memorandum of February 7, 1996: TO: James E. Chandler County Administrato DATE: February 7, 1996 SUBJECT: PRE1XMMARY BUDGET REVIM FROM: Joseph A Bair _ OMB Director Attached is information for a preliminary budget review. Initial indications are that in fiscal year 1996/97 we will not have as many negative issues facing us as we had in the past two years. The presentation should not be lengthy; therefore, we may be able to have it at the end of the February 13, 1996 Board of County Commissioners meeting. Administrator Chandler advised that the purpose today was to give a general overview of the current status of this year's budget and what is perceived for the next fiscal year. While it is very early in the budget year and the next budget year's process, there is one significant difference between last year and this year. A number of obstacles that had to be addressed last year, such as courthouse security and operational expenses, impact of Fair Labor Standards Act, and needs in emergency services area, are not present this year. 22 February 13, 1996 M M M OMB Director Joe Baird gave the Board a quick overview of the 20—page document he had submitted for backup material, concentrating on the pages shaded in the Table of Contents, pages 1, 2, 3, 17, 18, and 19.

He pointed out that, according to Florida State Statutes, the County contributes significantly to all of the entities listed under General Fund. In fact, 60% of the General Fund pays for outside agencies or constitutional officers, and only roughly 25% is for the Board of County Commissioners' departments. Director Baird advised that of the $14 million M.S.T.U. budget, $10.9 million transfers out to our Transportation Fund and to the Sheriff's law enforcement portion of the General Fund. He briefly explained the breakdown of the Sheriff's budget: court services, corrections, and law enforcement and the source of funding. Director Baird briefly covered the Emergency Services District portion and the breakdown of the Transportation Fund category.

She also wanted consideration given to the North County Industrial Park and Recreation Park land. Director Baird, turning to Page 18, 1996/97 Budget Revenue, felt there would be a slight growth in the tax roll. He felt State Revenues will be stronger, especially in the 1/2 -cent sales tax, due to all the new retail, Disney Resort, etc. He indicated that it was difficult to predict the revenue from the State as they have a tendency to change the formula. He explained that the Limited Other Revenue Sources had little impact on our budget and that Cash Forward would give a slightly negative impact. Building Revenues are remaining stable, which is an indication that we should have a good New Construction portion of the tax revenue. Chairman Adams asked how new construction relates to "building revenues" and Director Baird clarified the process for her. 1996/97 BUDGET REVENUE • Tax Roll Growth - New Construction - 3% Cap • State Revenues • Limited Other Revenue Sources • Cash Forward • Building Revenues is Director Baird next described each phase and cycle of the Budget Preparation Process as outlined on Page 19. He advised that the main reason the budget process is not begun earlier is due to the State and the State agencies that feed off the County through the general fund. The biggest reason is the TRIM notices and also 33 February 13, 1996 BOOK 97 F''E 294 BOOK 97 FADE 95 when the Property Appraiser delivers the tax roll, per State law, on June 30th. Also the State cannot give the County the revenue until late June or July, so those big chunks are missing in the budget. Usually 60a of the General Fund budget is an unknown until the last week of June. BUDGET PREPARATION PROCESS FEB I MAR I APR I MAY I JUNE I JULY I AUG I SEPT DirectorMepartmental Staff input County AdmindBudget Review Preliminary Budget Prepared Budget Workshop Preliminary Budget Revised Budget Adopted The above chart indicates the time flame for major segments of the County's budget preparation process from February to September. Not shown is a time line for monitoring and control of adopted budgets that spans a twelve month period. Monthly financial reports and detailed line item reports are issued on a monthly basis to assist the departments in this ongoing process. 19 In response to Commissioner Eggert's question, Director Baird explained the Tourist Tax applications start in -march -April. The problem is that agencies of the State Departments fill out their packets, but have to alter them later in the process due to what the State denies or changes in their formula and that can affect us dramatically. 34 Februar 13, 1996 Responding once again to Commissioner Eggert, Director Baird advised he generally brings information to the Board in May for the final decision on tourist tax. Any applicants for Tourist Tax funds should contact his office immediately for the packets. Comm-ittee meetings will be held the end of March/beginning of April. Commissioner Tippin indicated that his committee, the Tourist Development Council, is very happy to hear any request, but it must be related to tourism.

Commissioner Macht felt that the person who had made the critical remarks should know the difference between the staff's function, the committee's function, and the County Commissioners' function and that Director Keating's recommendations are based on the law, technicalities of his position, and, in this instance, referendum mandates. Commissioner Macht went on to explain that the committee members and Commissioners make their decisions based on other factors; people need to understand that staff does not make policy decisions. He felt it was very inappropriate and unfair to criticize a__staff member who cannot reply in the same fashion. Chairman Adams, Commissioner Bird, Commissioner Eggert, and Commissioner Tippin agreed with his remarks. Chairman Adams announced that the Board would be returning at 5:01 p.m. for a public hearing on changes to the Land Development Regulations. (LDR's) There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded and carried, the Board adjourned at 10:00 a.m. ATTEST: J. K. Barton, Clerk Fran B.
