Chandler County Administrator DEP-ARTMENT HEAD CONCURRENCE: Robert M. Keating, AICP1 Community Development Director THROUGH: Roland M. DeBlois, AICP Chief, Environmental Planning & Code Enforcement FROM: Charles W. Heath CSW - Code Enforcement Officer DATE: October 08, 1997 SUBJECT: Release of Easement Request by Daniel L Kabatt and Diane L. Kabatt: Lot 9, Plantation Ridge Subdivision (117 N. 191 Circle SW) It is requested that data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 14, 1997. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The County has been petitioned by Daniel J. Kabatt and Diane L. Kabatt, owners of the subject property at 117 N. 19th Circle SW, for the release of a 50 linear foot portion of a drainage and utility easement on the property. The purpose of this request is to resolve an easement encroachment relating to a portion of an existing residence and a concrete pool deck. The plat map of the subject property (Lot 9 of Plantation Ridge Subdivision) depicts a 16 1/2 'wide AT & T easement along the eastern boundary of the subject property. A separate, additional 7 '/2` wide drainage and utility easement runs parallel to the AT & T easement, resulting in a combined easement area 24` wide along the eastern property line (see attachment). In 1990, before the house and pool deck were built, the property owners obtained a release of the AT&T easement from AT&T. In 1991, County staff issued building permits for the house and pool deck based on an erroneous survey that depicted the 7.5' drainage and utility easement within (rather than outside oo the AT&T easement that had been released. Because of the survey error, a current easement encroachment exists. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The request has been reviewed by Bell South Communications, Florida Power & Light Corporation, T.C.I. Cable Corporation, the Indian River County Utilities Department, and the Road & Bridge and Engineering Divisions. Based upon their reviews, it is staffs position that the easement release would have no adverse impact to utilities being supplied to the subject property. Moreover, the easement release will resolve a building encroachment that resulted from a survey error. OCTOBER 14, 1997 13 8m 103 FACF 9 r 80N 10S PAGF � ti RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board, through the adoption of the attached resolution, release of a portion of the easterly 7 1/z' utility and drainage easement of Lot 9, Plantation Ridge Subdivision, as more particularly described in the resolution.

McCoy, AICPA Senior Planner, Current Development DATE: October 7, 1997 SUBJECT: Indian River Club's Request for Final Plat Approval for Plat 4 It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 14, 1997. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: Plat 4 of the Indian River Club is a 20 lot subdivision of a 12.23 acre parcel of land located on the north side of the overall Indian River Club development (see attachment #2). The subject property is zoned RS -6, Residential Single Family (up to 6 unitstacre) and has a land use designation of L-2, Low Density 2 (up to 6 units/acre). The density of the subdivision is 1.63 units per acre. On July 7, 1996, the Planning and Zoning Commission granted preliminary plat approval for Indian River Club Plat 4. That plat conformed to the previously approved Indian River Club conceptual PD plan for the overall project. The developer, Indian River Club Ltd., subsequently obtained a land development permit for the Plat 4 area and has completed construction of the required subdivision improvements. The developer is now requesting final plat approval and has submitted the following: 1. A final plat in conformance with the approved preliminary plat. 2. A certificate of completion for all required improvements. 3. A contract for construction for off-site improvements. ANALYSIS: All required subdivision improvements have been completed, and the developer has obtained certificate of completion from Public Works certifying that all required improvements are complete and acceptable, with the exception of a sidewalk along the project's Highland Drive frontage. A contract for construction and letter of credit have been approved by the county attorney for the OCTOBER 14, 1997 16 sidewalk. The public works division has approved the cost estimate for the proposed construction. All subdivision improvements are privately dedicated with the exception of the utility system, which is;, separately warranted through the Department of Utility Services. Therefore, no subdivision warranty and maintenance agreement is required. All requirements of final plat approval are satisfied. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners grant final plat approval for the Indian River Club Plat 4, authorize the chairman to sign the contract for construction, and accept a letter of credit to guarantee construction. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Application 2. Location Map 3. Final Plat 4. Contract for Construction ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED BY Commissioner Ginn, the Board unanimously granted final plat approval for the Indian River Club Plat 4, authorized the Chairman to sign the contract for construction, and accepted a letter of credit to guarantee construction, as recommended in the memorandum. 7.

PPoyment o f &ecial Assessments The Board reviewed a Memorandum dated October 2, 1997: TO: The Board of County Commissioners of FROM: Terrence P. O'Brien - Assistant County Attorney 9" DATE: October 2, 1997 SUBJECT: Payment of Special Assessments As part of an ongoing effort to collect past due special assessments, this office in coordination with the Tax Collector has been contacting delinquent accounts. One of the methods of collection was to establish a voluntary payment schedule. This has resulted in eight "full" payments and two partial payments. The "full" payments reflect payment in accordance with the established schedules but are OCTOBER 14, 1997 18 a few dollars less than the amount shown by the Tax Collector. This was due to a slight difference in the interest calculation. For the eight full payments, the total interest deficit is $62.32 for an average of $7.79 per account. Staff does not feel that collection efforts should be pursued because the owners made good faith payments and the amounts are so small. However, in the age of computers and auditors, it will be necessary for some formal action to be taken to reflect this difference as well as the two partial payments. It is recommended that the attached memorandum from the Board of County Commissioners to the Tax Collector be adopted. This office will bring to the Board in the near future an analysis of remaining delinquent accounts and to seek advice as to future causes of action with respect to these accounts. Commissioner Adams inquired if future assessments will be on computer in order to avoid another occurrence of this nature, and County Attorney Vitunac responded that the interest rate of 8-1/2% was used to compute all, yet each project had a different rate.

Collins II - Deputy County Attorney DATE: October 7, 1997 SUBJECT: Release and Substitution of Conservation Easement - Lindsey Lanes Subdivision, Phase I (Yolanda Beristain - Lot 1, Block B) BACKGROUND: On July 26, 1994 the Board of County Commissioners approved the transfer of a Conservation Easement in Lindsey Lanes Subdivision from Lot 16, Block A to Lot 1, Block B. This allowed a pool to be built on the former lot, and the develop felt the latter lot was less desirable since it was at the entrance of the subdivision. The Board also approved the concept of creating a 3-1/2 acre native upland "land bank" to be utilized in future situations where circumstances within the Lindsey Lanes Subdivision required the release of platted conservation easements. The original developer, Stolle Development Corporation, placed approximately 3-1/2 acres of contiguous property which they owned south of 13th Street, S.W. and west of 27th Avenue under a conservation easement. The conservation easements within Lindsey Lanes Phase I Subdivision were at times precluding the development of accessory uses such as swimming pools on certain lots. Since the approval of the "land bank" by the County Commission and recordation of the Conservation Easement at O.R. Book 1030, Page 428, Public Records of Indian River County on August 11, 1994, the Board has approved releases on 19 lots. REQUEST: The developer did sell Lot 1, Block B and the owner, Yolanda Beristain, cannot build without a release of the conservation easement. The proposal before the Board would release the 47' x 80' conservation easement from her lot. The unutilized square footage in the land bank area stands at approximately 120,418 square feet at this time. If granted the remaining acreage in the land bank covered by a conservation easement would exceed amounts released by 116,658 square feet or 2.68 acres+/-.

Sept. 26,1997 1166843r i Emergency Services Director Doug Wright reviewed a Memorandum dated October 1, 1997: TO: Honorable Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Jim Chandler, County Administrator FROM: Doug Wright, Director Emergency Services DATE: October 1, 1997 SUBJECT: Application For A "Class C" Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity From Coastal Health Systems of Brevard, Inc., To Provide Interfacility Non - Emergency Ambulance Transportation For Neonatal Patients Only It is respectfully requested that the information contained herein be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at a public hearing scheduled for October 14, 1997. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: On August 7, 1997, Coastal Health Systems of Brevard, Inc., submitted an application along with a fee of $100.00 for a Class "C" Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to provide interfacility non -emergency ambulance transportation for neonatal patients only. The original submission was incomplete and it was returned for additional information and documents. The completed application was subsequently received and accepted for routine processing. A Class "C" Certificate is described in Chapter 304.04 as follows: "Certificates of public convenience and necessity for businesses, agencies, hospitals, and governmental entities who use ambulances to conduct non -emergency interfacility medical transport or transfer services requiring on -board clinical capabilities which may exceed those of a conventionally equipped and staffed advanced life support ambulance and which originate in the county, under a physician's order, titled Class C. " For the Board's information, it should be noted that currently in Indian River County, no Class "C" certificates have been issued prior and no applications are pending. Two Class "A"; two Class "B"; one Class "D"; three Class "El"; and ten Class "E" are active at this time. A chart of active certificates is attached for review. Pursuant to Chapter 304 of the Indian River County Code, an investigation was conducted regarding the application. It was found that Coastal was established in 1988 by three Brevard County Hospitals (Wuesthoff Hospital, Cape Canaveral Hospital, Parrish Medical Center) to provide non -emergency interfacility ambulance service in Brevard County, as well as provide mutual aid to county -wide 911 ambulance service. Coastal added county -wide Medicaid transportation in 1991, non-medical stretcher transportation service in 1996, and body removal service (Medical Examiner's Office) in 1996. The company is headquartered in Brevard County at 1535 N. Cogswell Street, Suite C-19 in Rockledge, Florida 32780. Coastal is a private, community based, not-for-profit corporation and documents were requested from the Internal Revenue Service to confirm this tax exempt OCTOBER 14, 1997 35 BOOK 103 FAE L Fr- -I 800K 103 PnE 42 status, a copy of which is attached. The service is totally funded from the ambulance fees collected for services provided. Contact with the Jacksonville Medicare Office revealed no billing discrepancies or complaints filed against Coastal. Coastal currently has a total of eight transport vehicles, five of which are ALS equipped and three which are BLS equipped. A staff member from the IRC Emergency Services Department traveled to the company headquarters in Rockledge to inspect the vehicles, verify rates, examine vehicle radio equipment, inspect the medical equipment, take photographs (attached) of the isolette and ramps, and review transport protocols. The vehicles, equipment, protocols, and documents were found to be in exemplary condition and order. The rate structure was also examined and found to be commensurate with existing rates for similar services around the state. Ctrrently, when one of the medical facilities in Brevard County, such as Wuesthoff Hospital, has a request from Sebastian River Medical Center to receive and transport a neonatal patient under a doctor's order, (which occurs on the average of three (3) transports every six (6) months) Coastal is summoned to transport the isolette (a specialized, self contained, neonatal life support unit weighing between 400 to 500 pounds), a Respiratory Therapist, and a Registered Nurse, to the Sebastian River Medical Center. When they arrive at the Sebastian River Medical Center, the isolette is off loaded on ramps and the neonatal patient is prepared for transport back to Wuesthoff Hospital. Due to the fact that Coastal does not have a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity in Indian River County, another service, such as Able Ambulance (which has no isolette ramps) must be summoned to transport the isolette containing the neonatal patient and staff back to Wuesthoff Hospital since the call is originating in Indian River County. Wuesthoff Hospital Director of Neonatology Services Dr. Javier Diaz -Blanco, (see attached letter) would prefer to have Coastal provide the ambulance service to and from the Sebastian Medical facility to receive and transport the patient. It should also be noted that the Coastal vehicles has ramps for the isolette and a generator (inverter) on board to provide a source of energy, other than a vehicle battery, to keep the isolette life support equipment functioning so the patient remains stable during the transport. The three references listed on the application were contacted and each provided very favorable information regarding the company and its staff. As part of the investigation, each municipality, hospital, EMS provider, and each nursing home/facility in the County was contacted or corresponded with by mail. Also an informational meeting was held on September 10, 1997, with notice given so that input from the providers, municipalities, interested groups, or citizens could be obtained and questions regarding the proposed service could be answered by representatives of Coastal. Coastal has made it clear, throughout this process, that the company has no interest in providing any other type of transport service in Indian River County. The company states their only motive is to have timely and safe transport for neonatal patients to ensure their health and safety at all times. It was stated at the informational meeting that on one occasion, the Wuesthoff medical staff had to wait approximately two hours for Able Ambulance to respond and they were concerned that a wait of this length of time in some cases may endanger a neonatal patient's life unnecessarily. Dr. Roger Nicosia, the Medical Director for Indian River County, has reviewed the application and states that the concern expressed by the Wuesthoff medical staff is well founded and justified and the certificate should be issued. OCTOBER 14, 1997 36 RECONDUNDATION: I Based on the totality of the information received and developed during the course of this investigation, the EMS Director recommends the approval and issuance of a Class "C" Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for Coastal Health Systems of Brevard, Inc., limited to providing non -emergency interfacility neonatal transport service in Indian River County for a period of two years, as provided for in Chapter 304 of the Indian River County Cade of Laws and Ordinances.

Kea ing, MCP , Community Development Dir for ` FROM: Roland M. DeBlois`'idCP Chief; Environmental Planning DATE: September 30, 1997 SUBJECT: PROPOSED PURCHASE OF THE IRWIN TRACT LAAC SITE It is requested that the information herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 7, 1997. SUMMARY Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners purchase the Irwin Tract with land acquisition bond funds. The proposed purchase option contract (already executed by the seller) is summarized as follows: Purchaser. Indian River County Board of County Commissioners / Conservation & Recreation Lands (CARL) Program (State will hold title) Seller. Robert and Susanne Irwin Cost -Share: Conservation & Recreation Lands Program (75%) (includes share of acquisition costs) Total Price: $2,585,000 (±$3,841 per linear oceanfront foot) OCTOBER 14, 1997 38 _ M M Other Costs: +$30,000 (appraisals, survey, environ. audit; title insurance to be paid by seller) County Bonds Expenditure: +$676,250 Acma : ±8.07 acres (673 linear oceanfront feet) LAAC Recommendation: The County Land Acquisition Advisory Committee WC), at its meeting on August 27, 1997, voted 9 to 5 to recommend that the Board not exercise the option to purchase the Irwin Tract. The LAAC majority cited the relative high cost of the property, and indicated that there is already a sufficient amount of publicly owned beachfront in the county. In a separate vote. LAAC voted (unanimously) to recommend that, if the property is purchased, it should be done only if it is added to the management contract under the terms and conditions of the existing Cairns Tract lease agreement between the County and the State (see attached unapproved LAAC meeting minutes). Principal Condition(s): • Closing subject to County Commission and Governor dt Cabinet approval; State will hold title, County will manage tract as an expansion of its Cairns Tract management agreement. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS 1 The subject +8.07 acre Irwin Tract is the second and final component of the Jungle Trail South LAAC site, currently ranked 3rd out of 19 projects on the LAAC site acquisition list. The property is located on the barrier island oceanfront, south of and contiguous to the Cairns Tract that was acquired by the County and the State last year. Procedures adopted by the Board of County Commissioners for environmental land acquisition include confidentiality of appraisals. In accordance with the County's Land Acquisition Guide, and Section 125.355 of the Florida Statutes, appraisals can be released for public information once an option agreement is executed between a seller and the County. Regarding the Irwin property, an option agreement was executed (binding the seller to a negotiated purchase price), and subsequently the appraisals were released from confidentiality. When a county exercises its confidentiality right in purchasing real property, Section 125.355, F.S. requires that the county approve the purchase at a public meeting not less than 30 days after appraisals are released and public notice of the meeting is given. Since the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, executed a purchase option for the Lwin property, and since appraisals of the property were made public at that time, the Board must now consider whether to exercise its purchase option (contingent on the State exercising its option). Consistent with Chapter 125, F.S. requirements, this decision will be made at the October 7, 1997 public meeting of the Board of County Commissioners (unless the Board agrees to continue the hearing at that time to another meeting). By having given 30 days public notice of this proposed action, the County will have complied with Chapter 125 requirements as well as LAAC Guide requirements to hold a public hearing before purchasing property with land acquisition bond funds. Site Characteristics The +8.07 acre Lwin Tract contains one of the few remaining sizable maritime hammock/ coastal strand communities in Indian River County. The property has approximately 673 linear feet of ocean frontage, and would add to the 1,155 linear feet of ocean frontage acquired in the Cairns Tract purchasein addition to protecting rare plant communities, the project would contribute significantly to endangered sea turtle habitat protection in an area with one of the highest sea turtle nesting densities in this hemisphere. The property is located in an area with a high probability of having archaeological sites (shell middens). Therefore, archaeological sites may exist on the property. OCTOBER 14, 1997 39 BaoK 103 rmu 45 I 6a0K 103 FAGE 4 Ownership Characteristics Currently, Robert and Susanne Lwin are the owners of the property. Public records indicate that the current tax assessed value for the tract is $1,005,040. Acouisition Cost -Share & Property Management Two issues which are important to LAAC staff with respect to all proposed purchases are obtaining cost share assistance in property acquisition and addressing management costs. • Cost -Share Approximately two years ago, the County executed a Multi -Party Acquisition Agreement with the DSL for 50% cost -share of the Cairns Tract, Irwin Tract, and Spallone property LAAC sites. However, because of the relative expense of the oceanfront Irwin Tract compared to other LAA sites, and with reference to expense concerns raised by LAAC regarding the Cairns Tract purchase, staff has asked the State to increase its cost -share to 75%, which state staff has agreed to support, subject to Governor and Cabinet approval. In contrast to the Florida Communities Trust (FCT) program, the CARL program is structured such that the State receives full title to the property. The purchase of the Irwin Tract, as proposed, will be similar to the Cairns tract purchase, where the State received title and the County entered into a long-term (50 year) management agreement with the State. • Management If acquired, the Lwin Tract will be incorporated with the Cairns Tract and managed by the County. A management plan is already being developed for the Cairns Tract, and will be expanded to include the Irwin Tract. It is anticipated that purchase of the Irwin Tract will not significantly increase management costs that the County has already committed to regarding the Cairns Tract. That is because public access improvements on the Irwin Tract are not crucial, since the property is contiguous to the Cairns Tract which will have limited public access. Appraisals In accordance with County Land Acquisition Guide and State procedures, two independent appraisals were obtained to determine an approved appraised value. The two appraisal firms selected were Real Property Analysts, Inc., and S.E. Baker Group, Inc. The appraised values are summarized as follows. APPRAISER VALUE S.E. Baker Croup $2,796,000 Real Properly Anal. $2,692,000 IRWIN TRACT APPRAISALS % DIVERGENCE 4% APPROVED APPIL VALUE $2,796,000 The negotiated purchase price of $2,585,000 is 92% of the approved appraised value. OCTOBER 14, 1997 40 Contract In coming to terms with DSL and county staff on the negotiated purchase price (subject to County Commission and State approval), the seller has executed a standard DSL purchase contract Option Agreement with minor modifications. A copy of that contract is attached to this staff report. ANALYSIS Multiple Benefits • Comprehensive Plan Acquisition Commitment Conservation Policy 6.3 of the County Comprehensive Plan commits the County to acquire a minimum of 100 acres of coastal tropical hammock, and Policy 6 calls for acquisition of at least an overall total of 750 acres of native upland plant community. Although the County has already acquired more than 100 acres of coastal hammock, the Irwin Tract will contribute 8.07 acres toward the overall total native uplands acquisition commitment. The project also furthers objectives in the County comprehensive plan relating to open space, historic resources, and endangered species habitat protection. The purchase would also serve to maintain low development density on the north barrier island from the standpoint of hurricane evacuation concerns. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the Irwin Tract purchase contract by agreeing to exercise its purchase option, contingent on the State's approval to exercise the option under a 75% cost -share. Staff also recommends that the Board authorize staff to proceed with property closing tasks in coordination with the State, and authorize the Board Chairman to execute any documents associated with the closing.

Mr. DeBlois thought that statement was even more true now. Commissioner Macht asked if the recommendation included congruency of the management plan with the Cairns tract, and Mr. DeBlois indicated that was part of the recommendation, which he may have failed to mention. Commissioner Ginn noted there was a sign on the property which advertised 10 acres for sale, and Mr. DeBlois advised that the purchase included a 15 -foot wide easement which runs to the river and that the purchase is based on a survey done by the State of the actual property. The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. She requested that comments be kept as brief as possible and requested that anyone who had already spoken (at last week's meeting) not repeat what they had already said. Jim Granse, 36 Pine Arbor Lane, Vero Beach, stated he was still against the purchase of this tract. He suggested that properties be purchased to the west of Vero Beach instead of this beach area. He referred to a draft regional wildlife corridor map and stated that there is not an acre of the area that is being purchased that is on the map where the birds fly down from the North. Chairman Eggert explained that the map Mr. Granse referred to was put together to show where larger animals might come down through Florida. Jim Hager, 1865 Garden Grove Parkway, Vero Beach, maintained that migrating birds do use the area every year for resting and feeding on their way to and from South and Central America. This area has more trees and food for birds than any place in South Florida. These are song birds which fly at night to avoid the hawks and other birds. He then spoke in support of purchasing the property. Robert Johnson, 535 39' Court SW, Vero Beach, stated he was speaking on behalf of the taxpayers and believed that the Board is taking more property off the tax rolls than the Chamber of Commerce is trying to pursue businesses to put on the tax rolls. He felt this OCTOBER 14, 1997 43 goa 103 mu 49 r1 UOK®3 Frn was a fine property to keep on the tax rolls for building any development that might go there. Susan Phillips, 600 Flamevine Lane, Vero Beach, the vice president of the Indian River Land Trust, spoke in favor of the purchase. She pointed out that this property was ranked third by the Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (LAAC) and that the purchase price is 92% of the appraised value, of which the County is paying only 25%. There being no one else wishing to speak, the Chairman closed the public hearing. Speaking as the LAAC Chairman, Commissioner Macht thought there was a fundamental correctness in both viewpoints. He felt that the arguments developed by staff in recommending this property were very cogent and the relationship of the cost of the property to the appraisals was very satisfactory. He agreed that parcels to the west should be considered for purchase and he would support that. He listed reasons for his support of the purchase of this tract. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED BY Commissioner Adams, to accept the recommendation of staff and proceed with the purchase. Chairman Eggert spoke in favor of the motion saying that it would be an enormous help to future generations of children. Commissioner Ginn was pleased she had an extra week to think about this. A real estate friend of hers had done a market analysis and found that the cost of the property was highly competitive with almost every comparable. She planned to support the motion. Commissioner Ginn then suggested that the Board have the legal staff research and report to them on the issue of the State selling off parcels of Preservation 2000 lands and what steps could be taken legislatively or constitutionally to prevent such sales in the future. She thought the Board could try to insure some protection in the future. Chairman Eggert agreed that full information should be brought back to the Board about the sale of the property that has triggered Commissioner Ginn's and other's concerns. Commissioner Macht explained his understanding of the transaction and stated he agreed with Commissioner Ginn's concern. He recalled that we have already initiated a OCTOBER 14, 1997 44 s � � request to Representative Charles Sembler and he thought it was a continuing staff responsibility to monitor that. County Attorney Vitunac stated that Commissioner Adams had the same concerns when the Cairns property was purchased. He had gone to Tallahassee with Commissioner Adams and other staff members and had spoken before the Governor's staff Cabinet meeting, relaying all the concerns. He felt they had done everything that could be done at that level to say that we do not want this ever sold. They were unable to get the State to relinquish their right to sell, because there are cases when it is in the public interest to get rid of small portions. Even with all that, he thought that Commissioner Adams felt it was in our interest to buy this property. If there are political battles to be fought in the future, our successors will have to take care of that. There was a discussion about State politics and philosophies with respect to lands purchased for environmental purposes. Commissioner Tippin indicated his support of the motion. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED THE QUESTION and it carried unanimously. 9.A.3.

SUMMARY Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners purchase the Flinn Tract - Indian River Boulevard site with land acquisition bond fiords. The purchase option contract (already executed by the seller) is summarized as follows: Purchaser: Indian River County Board of County Commissioners, St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), and the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND); each agency will hold undivided interest Seller: Robert A. Flinn & Richard M. Flinn Cost -Share: St. Johns River Water Management District (21%. not exceeding $284,360.20) Florida Inland Navigation District (25%; ±$338,387) Indian River County (54%; +$730,917) Total Price: $1,353,550 Other Costs: ±$45,000 (appraisals, survey, title insurance; 25% paid by SJRWMD)) County Bonds Expenditure: +$764,667 Acreage: + 37.6 acres (±21.10 ac. uplands; ±0.80 ac. non -estuarine wetlands; 15.70 estuarine wetlands identified by SJRWMD as potentially sovereignty lands) LAAC Recommendation: The County Land Acquisition Advisory Committee (LAAC), at its meeting on August 27, 1997, voted 11 to 3 to recommend that the Board purchase the Flinn Tract conditioned upon finalization of cost -share participation by FIND and the SJRWMD (see attached unapproved LAAC meeting minutes). Principal Conditions: Closing subject to County Commission approval; cost -share agencies will hold undivided interest, County will be responsible for management of uplands, Indian River Mosquito Control District responsible for wetlands management in coordination with the SJRWMD. DE9CREMON AND CONDITIONS The subject Flinn Tract is the "key" property of the Indian River Boulevard South project, which is currently ranked 14th out of 19 projects on the LAAC site acquisition list. During the past years, the county's acquisition consultant, in coordination with county staff and cost -share agencies, has overseen pre-acquisition tasks and conducted negotiations. Procedures adopted by the Board of County Commissioners for environmental land acquisition include confidentiality of appraisals. In accordance with the County's Land Acquisition Guide, and Section 125.355 of the Florida Statutes, appraisals can be released for public information once an option agreement is executed between a seller and the County. Regarding the Flinn property, an option agreement was executed (binding the seller to a negotiated purchase price), and subsequently the appraisals were released from confidentiality. OCTOBER 14, 1997 46 - M When a county exercises its confidentiality right in purchasing real property, Section 125.355, F.S. requires that the county approve the purchase at a public meeting not less than 30 days after appraisals are released and public notice of the meeting is given. Since the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, executed a purchase option for the Flinn property, and since appraisals of the property were made public at that time, the Board must now consider whether to exercise its purchase option (contingent on the SJRWMD exercising its option). Consistent with Chapter 125, F.S. requirements, this decision will be made at the October 7, 1997 public meeting of the Board of County Commissioners (unless the Board agrees to continue the hearing at that time to another meeting). By having given 30 days public notice of this proposed action, the County will have complied with Chapter 125 requirements as well as LAAC Guide requirements to hold a public hearing before purchasing property with land acquisition bond funds. Site Characteristics The +37.6 acre Flinn Tract is located on the east side of Indian River Boulevard, approximately across from the Boulevard's intersection with 81 Street. The property contains a ±21 acre coastal oak hammock and approximately 161/z acres of wetlands bordering the Indian River Lagoon. Approximately 15.70 acres of the wetlands are impounded estuarine salt marsh, which are part of a bigger +35 acre impoundment known as "Schlitt's Impoundment" (#21). The Flinn Tract acquisition is the culmination of acquisition efforts within the overall Indian River Boulevard South project, which is made up of 7 ownerships and extends from the city limits of Vero Beach to Vista Gardens on the east side of Indian River Boulevard. The Flinn Tract is the only tract in the project containing a significant natural upland community. Through the efforts of the County, SJRWMD and FIND, it is still anticipated that all 7 ownerships other than the Flinn tract (except possibly the Vista Wetlands tract) will be protected through mitigation, conservation easements or other methods without the expenditure of County acquisition funding. In this sense, the Flinn acquisition is the "centerpiece" in the completion ofthis project. Attachment #1 to this memorandum indicates the method of protection proposed for each tract in the project, and the project's overall relationship with the Oslo Riverfront Corridor. Ownership Characteristics Currently, the subject property is owned by Robert A. Flinn and Richard M. Flinn. Public record indicate that the current tax assessed value for the overall property is $489,520. Deed and ad valorem tax information indicate that the Flinns are the owners of the overall +37.6 acres. However, SJRWMD staff has identified the east +15.70 acres of the property as "potentially sovereignty land." Angraisals In abcordance with County Land Acquisition Guide and State procedures, two independent appraisals were obtained to determine an approved appraised value. The County Land Acquisition Guide defines the approved appraised value as "the higher value indicated in the two approved appraisals" (when the appraisals differ less than 201%). The two appraisals are summarized as follows. FLINN TRACT APPRAISALS APPRAISER VALUE % DIVERGENCE Wingo & Associates, Inc. $1,353,550 Lentz -Goodman Group, Inc. $1,320,000 2% APPROVEDAPPILVALUE $1,353,550 OCTOBER 14, 1997 47 103 pgF 53� L NOK 103 PAu 54 The negotiated purchase price of $1,353,550 is 100% of the approved appraised value. In accordance with State Statute and County Land Acquisition Guide procedures, because the negotiated purchase price exceeds the average of the two appraisals, approval of the purchase by the Board of County Commissioners will require a "super majority vote" (at least 4 votes) in favor of the acquisition. TDRs from Donated Right -of -Way. The appraised values are largely based on a per unit value regarding the number of multi -family residential units potentially allowed on the Flinn property uplands. The uplands of the Flinn Tract have a County Future Land Use Designation of multiple - family residential, 10 units per acre. Moreover, during the course of the appraisal process, Robert Flinn confirmed to staff that when Indian River Boulevard public right-of-way was acquired in the 1980s, Mr. Flinn was given development density credit for 1.86 acres of right-of-way donated by him to the County for construction of the Boulevard. For that reason, the Flinn Tract appraisals account for a development density credit of 1.86 acres at 10 units per acre attributed to the right-of-way donation. TDRs from Potentially Sovereignty Wetlands. SJRWMD staff has identified +15.70 acres of the Flinn Tract as being "potentially sovereignty lands." Both the state of Florida and the water management districts maintain a strict policy against the purchase of submerged lands and wetlands which may be subject to the claim of the State of Florida as sovereignty lands, held in trust by the State for the public. However, the technical difficulty and expense of determining the mean high waterline (or ordinary high water line, in the case on non -tidal waterbodies) by survey are so substantial that in many if not most cases the expense of determining the line far exceeds the value of the land so delineated. This difficulty is reflected in regulatory practices at all levels, wherein sovereignty boundary determination is not generally required, and certain assumptions are relied upon in the permitting process. Indian River County Land Development Regulations allow the transfer of one unit per acre from estuarine wetlands to uplands. For the Transfer of Density Rights (TDRs) to occur, the County relies on deed and related ad valorem tax information as sufficient documentation of wetland ownership, absent other better evidence such as a mean high water line survey. Thus, fair market value appraisals used in private transactions reflect this ability of the landowner to transfer units to increase density on adjacent (or other) uplands, within the limits of County regulations, irrespective of whether or not the wetlands could ultimately be proven to be sovereignty lands. The initial appraisals of the Flinn Tract followed the custom established in the state of completely excluding all density which might be attributable to sovereignty lands. However, because this practi is an exception to a strict market value approach, which would normally consider the additio density, the appraisals were subsequently revised to reflect approximately 16 additional units which could be permitted if the property were developed or sold to a private buyer. As a result of accounting for the density transfer of one unit per acre from the potentially sovereignty wetlands, the approved appraised value was increased by $94,050. Staff obtained the information as to value of units which might be transferred from potentially soviereigaty acreage as a method of establishing a "faimess" benchmark in this transaction, particularly sinde the Flinns were aware of similar TDRs that were allowed for a proposed development project to the south, and the issue was critical in coming to terms with the Flinns as willing sellers. Acquisition Cost -Share & Property Management Two issues which are important to LAAC staff with respect to all proposed purchases are obtaining cost share assistance in property acquisition and addressing management costs. OCTOBER 14, 1997 48 � � r Cost -Share Over the past two years, staff has worked with the SJRWMD and FIND to develop an acquisition partnership. In We 1994, the County executed a "Joint Acquisition Agreement" with the SJRWMD to acquire properties in the "Oslo Riverfront Corridor" under a 50/50 cost -share partnership. However, as coordination with SJRWMD staff progressed concerning acquisition of the Flinn Tract, it became apparent that the SJRWMD was reluctant to commit to a full 50% cost -share, largely because of the expense of the uplands relative to wetlands that the SJRWMD typically buys. The SJRWMD eventually agreed to a 21% cost -share of the final negotiated price. To make up the difference of the reduced SJRWMD cost -share, county staff approached the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) to determine if that agency was interested in participating in cost - share of the Flinn Tract. FIND recently finished a long term study that will result in FIND acquiring three permanent spoil management sites in Indian River County, one of which is located directly north of the Flinn Tract within the Indian River Boulevard South LAAC site project area. For that reason, FIND has expressed a willingness to participate as a 25 % cost -share partner in the Flinn Tract purchase, largely because public ownership of the Flinn Tract will complement FIND's anticipated purchase to the north by providing a green -space buffer. • Management Costs Similar to the Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area north of Oslo Road, the wetlands portion of the Flinn Tract will be managed by the Indian River Mosquito Control District in cooperation with the SJRWMD and the County. Management of the Flinn Tract uplands will be the responsibility of the County. However, because the Flinn Tract uplands are mostly native oak hammock, costs such as exotic plant removal will be minimized. Also, County staff anticipates cooperative management from FIND regarding management of the Flinn Tract as it complements the FIND spoil management site expected to be acquired immediately to the north. Contract In coming to terms with county staff on the negotiated purchase price (subject to County Commission and SJRWMD approval), the seller has executed a standard purchase contract Option Agreement with modifications to address certain issues explained herein. A copy of that contract is attached to this staff report. ANALYSIS Multiple Benefits • River Buffer/Wetlands Restoration The Flinn Tract purchase as proposed will, in addition to preserving a 21 acre native oak hammock in an area under significant development pressure, allow for improved impounded salt marsh management that will benefit the resources of the Indian River Lagoon. Specifically, acquisition of the Flinn Tract wetlands will allow connection of the impoundment to the lagoon via culverts with flap gates, which will benefit both mosquito control and lagoon habitat. • Comprehensive Plan Acquisition Commitment Conservation Policy 6.3 of the County Comprehensive Plan commits the County to acquire a minimum of 100 acres of coastal tropical hammock, and Policy 6 calls for acquisition of at least an overall total of 750 acres of native upland plant community. Although the County has already acquired more than 100 acres of coastal hammock, the Flinn Tract will contribute 21 acres toward the overall total native uplands acquisition commitment. The project also fiuthers objectives in the County comprehensive plan relating to floodplain protection, open space, and endangered species habitat protection. OCTOBER 14, 1997 49 BOOK 103 PAGE 55, Fr'- 'I WK 103 PnE 5 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the Flinn Tract purchase contract by agreeing to exercise its purchase option, contingent upon SJRWMD and FIND cost -share participation. Staff also recommends that the Board authorize staff to proceed with property closing tasks in coordination with the SJRWMD and FIND, and authorize the Board Chairman to execute any documents associated with the closing.

In response to Commissioner Ginn, Mr. DeBlois reviewed the ownership of the properties surrounding this tract and clarified that the management area will be on the uplands portion, but there was a need to connect through the wetlands. The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. Jim Hager, 1865 Garden Grove Parkway, Vero Beach, spoke in favor of acquiring this property and recommended the purchase. Robert Johnson, 39' Court SW, Vero Beach, was uncertain of the cost -share percentage of the rest of the participants in the purchase. He wanted to know the total cost to the County. It was also not clear to him why the County was buying wetlands. Mr. DeBlois explained that originally the St. Johns River Water Management District had looked at this project as a 50% cost -share partner, but as they got closer to the negotiated purchase price, their District Board stated they would participate at something less than 50%, and they approved the 25% cost -share. As the transaction got into the appraisal revisions based on the density transfers, the County's price changed, but the District held to the 25% of the other appraised value which, under the new appraisal, amounted to 21%. He believed there is a fairly firm commitment by St. Johns at that level. Chairman Eggert pointed out that staff's recommendation is contingent on St. Johns' cost-sharing participation. Jim Granse, 36 Pine Arbor Lane, had a feeling that Indian River County is trying to make this area an environmental outdoor museum where people have to walk softly and not touch. There being no further speakers, the Chairman closed the public hearing. Speaking as the LAAC Chairman, Commissioner Macht spoke in favor of the purchase. He credited the staff for doing their usual very fine job of presenting this and OCTOBER 14, 1997 51 MOK 103 FACE 5-7 uoK 1.03 PA'Un 58 obtaining some of these deals through the very fluctuating applications of the St. Johns River Water Management District. He felt the County was in a unique position of owning that much riparian land along the river that stretches through almost half of the county. ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED BY Commissioner Adams, the Board approved staff's recommendation to approve the Flinn Tract purchase contract by agreeing to exercise its purchase option, contingent upon St. Johns River Water Management District and FIND cost -share participation. Further, staff was authorized to proceed with property closing tasks in coordination with the St. Johns River Water Management District and FIND, and authorized the Chairman to execute any documents associated with the closing. Il. C. NORTH COUNTYLIBRARY- PURCHASE TWO PARCELS - ZENGAGE The Board reviewed a Memorandum dated October 7, 1997: Date: October 7, 1997 To: Honorable Board of County Commissioners Thru: James E. Eotmty N-4^ County Administrator From: H.T. "Sonny" Dean, Director Department of General Services Subject: North Indian River County Library Property BACKGROUND: At their regular meeting on September 16, 1997, the Board authorized staff to proceed with negotiations to purchase two parcels of property immediately and adjacent to the east of the North Indian River County Library. In accordance with Florida State Statutes an appraisal was ordered and performed by Armfield and Wagner Appraisal & Research, Inc. Based on the analyses presented in that report, the Market Value of the fee simple estate to the property appraised was estimated to be $175,000. Staff approached the owner, Jim Zengage, President of Southern Development Services with an offer of the appraised value. Mr. Zengage had indicated earlier an appraised value of $216,385 but would be interested in taking $200,000 if the transaction could be completed in unison with the other properties he is selling. Negotiations resulted in Mr. Zengage agreeing to $180,000 for the two parcels provided closing could be finalized on November 6, 1997. OCTOBER 14, 1997 52 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends entering into a contract for purchase of the properties at a price of $180,000 and expedite the closing procedures to meet the November sixth deadline. It is also recommended the Board authorize their Chairman to execute the appropriate documents. Chairman Eggert mentioned that this would be funded from Optional Sales Tax momes. ON MOTION by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED BY Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously approved entering into a contract for the purchase of two parcels at a price of $180,000; approved expediting the closing procedures to meet the November 6' deadline; authorized the chairman to execute the appropriate documents, as recommended in the Memorandum. 0 COPY OF CONTRACT ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD I1.E.l. 1997/98 ANTI-DRUG ABUSE GRANT CERTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF SUB -GRANT A WARD The Board reviewed a Memorandum dated October 8, 1997: TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE October 8, 1997 SUBJECT. 1997198 ANTI-DRUG ABUSE GRANT CERTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF SUB -GRANT AWARD - OFFICE OFMANAGEMENTAND BUDGETAGENDA ITEM FROM: Joseph A.

EMPLOYEE GROUP DENTAL INSURANCE - REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS APPROVED The Board reviewed a Memorandum dated October 8, 1997: OCTOBER 14, 1997 54 T4: James E. Chandler, County Administrator THRU: Joe Baird, Director, Office of Management and Budget FROM: Beth Jordan, Risk Manage .r DATE: 8 October 1997 SUBJECT: Dental Insurance Request for Proposals Staff requests consideration of the following information at the October W, 1997, regular meeting of the Board of County Commissioners. Background At the request of the Board, staff has prepared a request for proposals (RFP) for employee group dental insurance. Modeled after other public entity programs, RFP seeks indemnity insurance with premiums to be payroll -deducted. Participating employees would pay the premium. Analysis For some time, there has been discussion of including an employee group dental indemnity insurance plan. Unlike the current HMO -type dental plan through which participating employees select a dental provider from a panel of participating dentists, this proposal would allow the employee freedom of choice for dental providers. Claims would be submitted by the employee for reimbursement and/or dentists would submit claims for the employees. While many major insurers, such as CIGNA, would write the business without a local agent's involvement, we have polled insurance agencies listed in the Indian River County telephone directory and have attached to the RFP a list of local agencies which indicated an ability to quote such dental insurance coverage. These agencies would be sent the RFP as well as the usual public advertising of this process. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Board approve the request for proposals for employee group dental insurance. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED BY Commissioner Adams, to approve staff's recommendation. Under discussion, Commissioner Ginn wanted to be certain that employees understand that they will be paying for this insurance. Budget Director Joseph A. Baird assured her that the employees are aware they will be paying for this insurance. He also requested that if the Board knew of any other insurance agencies which should be contacted, in addition to those listed in the backup, to please let him know. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED THE QUESTION and it carried unanimously.

These funds will be distributed as deferred payment, low interest loans (0% annual interest rate for very low income households and 3% annual interest rate for low income persons). With the SHIP loan$, qualified applicants have the option of paying back the loans through a monthly payme schedule that is appropriate for their budget. The SHIP loans are available to qualified applicants to pay water impact fees and any needed plumbing system repairs. All other costs (line extension, fire hydrants, meters, service lines, road paving, and drainage improvements) will be paid with CDBG funds. In the past six months, County staff have organized and attended two community meetings (04/29/97 and 07/28/97) and three application workshops (06/20/97, 07/30/97, and 09/16/97) to inform residents of the project and to assist residents with the various application forms. Despite this effort, there has been a low response rate for completing CDBG water connection forms and applying for SHIP loans. To date, the County's consultant has received only 57 completed CDBG water connection forms from the 83 residences in the community. Out of those 57 residences, 30 have expressed interest in al�plying for a SHIP loan. However, the County has received only 25 SHIP applications. These 25 applicants represent approximately $32,500 in SHIP funds, leaving $167,500 in CDBG project allocated SHIP funds uncommitted. One requirement of the CDBG program is that all matching funds (in this case SHIP funds) allocated to the project must be spent before the project can be closed out. In this case, however, the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) has informed the County's consultant that the County may amend its CDBG application and reduce the amount of SHIP funds allocated to the project. Originally, the County pledged $200,000 in SHIP funds to gain the necessary points to ensure that the County would be in the funding range for CDBG funds. In reviewing point totals for all CDBG applicants, the DCA has determined that, even without the points attributable to the SHIP match, Indian River County would still receive $750,000 in CDBG funds. Consequently, the County's consultant will amend the CDBG application to reduce the amount of matching SHIP funds to a level that reflects the actual demand for SHIP loans. • Mandatory Hook -Up One of the principal CDBG program requirements is that the maximum number of low and moderate income households benefit from CDBG funds. This requirement ensures that CDBG funds are used efficiently. In the Whitfield/Colored School project area, all residents will benefit from the road improvements, drainage improvements, and fire hydrant installations that will be completed as part of the project scope of work. In regard to the potable water improvements, however, only those households that physically connect to the County water system will benefit from the project. In order to comply with CDBG program requirements, it will be necessary for the County to enforce Ordinance No. 91-9. Section 201.02 of that ordinance states that the owner of every lot or parcel of land within the County shall connect, or cause the plumbing of any building to be connected, with the water system of the County, and use such facilities within 60 days following notification to do so by the County Utilities Department. Additionally, section 201.33 of this ordinance states that any person who shall violate or fail to comply with any provisions of Ordinance No. 91-9 shall, upon conviction, be OCTOBER 14, 1997 57 60 1-03 PnE 63 kox.03 punished by a fine not to exceed $500.00 or 6 months in jail or both. Section 201.33 also states that the county may enforce the provisions of this article by seeking injunctive relief or any other remedies provided by law. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS In reviewing the bids, Martin Paving Co. of Sebastian, Florida is the low bidder. The total of the bid items originally included in the Community Development Block Grant application, as submitted by Martin Paving is $638,546.30. The County staff added two items to the project bid scheduled. One item is extending a water line to the newly renovated West Wabasso Park which was bid at $16,000. The second item was paving a short section of 6,e Avenue south of the Douglas School to complete road paving in the area. This paving item was bid at $61,000, which is too high, in staffs opinion. The CDBG bid items came in $10,453.70 under the CDBG grant amount. Staff also save $8,176 in engineering fees allowed by the DCA in the CDBG funding. The following Alternatives are provided: Alternative No. 1 Award the bid to the low bidder, Martin Paving Co. of Sebastian in the amount of $715,546.30. Since the bid item #2,000 for the paving of the southerly extension of W Avenue was above the Engineer's Estimate, Change Order No. 1 will be prepared to delete this work from the contract resulting in a revised contract amount of $654,546.30. Since the bids for the original CDBG scope of work came in at $638,546.30, which is $10,453.70 below the CDBG approved funding, and the engineering costs are $8,176 below the CDBG approved funding, staff can request that the DCA approve funding the $16,000 West Wabasso Park Water Main Extension as an eligible cost under the CDBG program. If DCA approves, the funding would be by the CDBG program. If DCA denies the request, the water main extension will be funded by the 10 Local Option Sales Tax Park Improvements fund. In addition to awarding the bid, the staff recommends directing the County's Consultant, Clark, Roumelis, and Assoc., to amend the CDBG application to reduce the amount of matching SHIP funds to reflect actual demand for SHIP loans. Mandatory hook-up to the water mains under County Ordinance 91-9 is also recommended. Alternative No. 2 Rebid the project. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING Staff recommends Alternative No. 1.

ACTING DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVIC PREPARED WILLIAM F. MCCAIN, E. AND STAFFED CAPITAL PROJECT INEER BY: DEPARTMENT O VICES SUBJECT: NORTH BEACH` tEUSE STUDY, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. US -97 -04 -ED BACKGROUND On August 5, 1997, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the selection of Brown and Caldwell for the above -referenced study. A copy of the agenda item and minutes is attached. At the same time, the BCC authorized the removal of the Sea Oaks Wastewater Treatment Plant from service. System modifications and operational tests are under way to proceed with the decommissioning of the plant. We have completed negotiations with Brown and Caldwell and we have received a portion of the St. John's grant that we applied for to assist us in the funding of this study. ANALYSIS The contract has been negotiated with Brown and Caldwell with a proposed fee of $32,345.00 (See the attached contract for details). We have been successful in acquiring a $10,000.00 grant from the St. John's Water Management District to aid in the funding of the study. A copy of the grant is attached for review. The funding for the County's portion of this study, $22,345.00 will be from the impact fee fund. RECOMMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the proposed contract with Brown and Caldwell and authorize acceptance of the grant. In response to Commissioner Macht's inquiry, Mr. McCain explained the offsetting grant from St. Johns River Water Management District became available last year and application was made. Commissioner Macht commended staff for this achievement. Responding to Commissioner Ginn's inquiry, Mr. McCain clarified the confusion between the existing 750,000 gallon tank which is part of the water plant on the barrier island and the to -be -constructed 750,000 gallon tank. OCTOBER 14, 1997 61 Box io. '7 Commissioner Adams was concerned about the policy (they had discussed) against doing business with consultants for which former County employees work and the perception of closeness. She is very sensitive to that perception and thought that although this is a small contract, that the perception is still there and has not been remedied in terms of policy and how it is addressed up front in the contract. She was not pleased to see Brown & Caldwell recommended for that reason and could not support the recommendation. Chairman Eggert thought there were a lot of complications to that policy and it needed to be looked at more closely and very carefully. Administrator Chandler advised that the staff would be coming to the Board with suggestions concerning that policy probably in the form of an ordinance. He further advised that this particular contract had been approved by the Board several months ago and today's requested action was to approve the negotiated fee. Commissioner Macht understood the concern. Mr. McCain advised that Brown & Caldwell has the expertise, with or without Mr. Harry Asher (former Assistant Utilities Director for the County), and Mr. Asher was not a major part of the presentation to the Board. Commissioner Adams knew Brown & Caldwell had the expertise. Her concern was about the relationship that Mr. Asher has had with the Utilities Department and now with Brown & Caldwell and the perception that perhaps they may be given special favors. 0. Chairman Eggert felt that this issue was getting blown out of proportion. If the policy were set, she would be more concerned. Commissioner Macht also felt they could depend upon the integrity of staff to make sure that nothing untoward would happen. Chairman Eggert thought that Board needed to decide upon a policy to be positive, or they will continue to affect employee morale. The Board needs to take a lot of positive steps, but she could not see the purpose of chipping away at things that occurred in the past. Also, Mr. Asher is no longer with Brown & Caldwell. Commissioner Adams' point was that the policy still has not been addressed and Mr. Asher was with the company when they were selected and while the negotiations were in progress. She had expected a policy to be back by now for their consideration. Commissioner Ginn thought the Board should put some type of a time line on the policy, and Chairman Eggert asked Administrator Chandler if he thought he could bring it OCTOBER 14, 1997 62 w to them in mid-November. Administrator Chandler advised that he would have the general policy back to them in two weeks and he hoped to have the policy on background checks next week. He explained some of the reasons for delay. ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED BY Commissioner Tippin, the Board approved (Vote: 4-1, Commissioner Adams opposed) the proposed contract with Brown and Caldwell and authorized acceptance of the grant, as recommended by staff. BROWN AND CALDWELL AGREEMENT IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD 13.E. CHILDREN'S SERVICES NETWORK UPDATE Commissioner Macht reported that the committee met yesterday as well as the Needs Assessment Committee and everything is working well. The assessment will probably cost $200-$400 and will be more comprehensive than a contractual one would be. A lot of people in the county, including United Way, will be able to use it. Dr. Roger Dearing has performed absolute miracles and worked very hard on it. Alan Polackwich and the development committee have done likewise. All the appointees are "blue ribbon" and he thought the Board would be very proud of the result when it is presented. Commissioner Ginn expressed concern on behalf of the Taxpayers who had numerous questions with respect to the needs assessment. She indicated it would be closely examined. Commissioner Macht stated that the analysis will be professionally done and the sampling is being scientifically conducted, so he felt they would be able to address both perception and actuality. He told of the various means by which information is being gathered.
