The budget amendment will be distributed as follows:
Law Enforcement Salaries(Aviation) $ 16.900
2 months' salary
Law Enforcement Expense(Aviation) 56,780
4.5 months' operating expenses
Corrections 27-630

Commissioner Adams questioned the difference in the bids and whether that
difference were related to the specifications.
Director Sonny Dean advised that the bids came in over the budget and staff
recommended the bids be rejected.
Environmental Engineer Robbie Wisemen stated that the project was originally
designed to be constructed on the south side of the road which has a lot of driveways which
would need to be moved and the soil is very wet. The new specifications will call for the
project to be constructed on the north side of the road which has fewer driveways and,
therefore, the bids should come in lower.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams,
SECONDED by Commissioner Ginn, the Board
unanimously rejected all bids, authorized staff to
revise the specifications and re -bid in an effort to
bring the project cost within the budget guidelines,
as recommended by staff.

DATE: February 18, 1998
SUBJECT: BOARD APPROVAL OF EXTENSION TO THE FLINN TRACT OPTION
AGREEMENT, TO ALLOW TIME FOR CLOSING IN COORDINATION
WITH COST -SHARE AGENCIES
It is requested that the information herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of
County Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 24, 1998.
DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS
At a public hearing on October 14, 1997, the Board of County Commissioners approved County
purchase of the ±37.6 acre Flinn Tract on south Indian River Boulevard, contingent upon the County
securing cost -share funding from the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) and
the Florida Inland Navigation Distad (FIND). Since that time, both the SJRWMD Governing Board
and the FIND Commission have formally approved their cost -share participation.
Before closing of the Flinn Tract can occur, certain tasks need to be completed, including obtainment
of a boundary survey, environmental audit, and title insurance. In accordance with a Participation
Agreement among the cost -share agencies (approved by the Board on February 3, 1998), these and
other closing documents are subject to review and approval by the SJRWMD and FIND.
The County's Option Agreement to purchase the Flinn property expires on February 27, 1998. In
order to allow enough time for closing in coordination with the cost -share agencies, the Option needs
to be extended.
Mr. Robert Flinn, representing the sellers, has agreed to extend the Option for an additional two
months. However, as a condition of the Option extension, Mr. Flinn is requesting that the County
agree to pay documentary stamps as part ofthe closing. The proposed option extension also clarifies
what was agreed to as part of purchase negotiations, that there will be no penalties or late fees with
respect to existing special assessments for certain utilities that the seller must pay prior to closing.
ANALYSIS
Extension of the Option is necessary if the County is to receive cost -share funding for the purchase,
which amounts to approximately $625,000. Based on the negotiated purchase price ($1,353,000)
and the current rate of 70 cents per $100, it is estimated that documentary stamps for the Flinn Tract
purchase will cost $9,471. County staff thinks payment of the documentary stamps in this particular
instance is justified, given the cost -share funding at stake.
Now that the cost -share agencies have formally agreed to participate in the purchase, closing tasks
are in progress (i.e., survey). Staff anticipates that the two month extension will allow adequate time
for closing.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998
-26-
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners authorize the Board Chairman to
executed that attached extension to the Flinn Tract Option, which includes the condition that the
County pay documentary stamps as a part of the property closing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert,
SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board
unanimously approved the Amendment to Option
Agreement for Sale and Purchase extending the
option expiration date to May 1, 1998, as
recommended by staff.

Clerk's Jury Department Employee Barbara MacWilliam commented that she has
worked for the Clerk for 20 years and is in no way critical of the Vero Beach Police
Department who have been very helpful, as has the Sheriff's Department. She reminded the
Board that Judge Vocelle had brought this situation before the Board previously and now she
believes the situation is escalating as Vero Beach is growing. 90% of the employees at the
Courthouse are female and there are homeless persons sleeping in parking garage stairwells,
there are empty wine bottles and other trash left in the stairwells; and teenagers bring in
bicycles and skateboards. Employees begin arriving in the mornings at about 7:15 a.m. and
some do not leave until after dark. The employees feel the garage is very unsafe and some
of the employees park on the street and move their cars every 2 hours to avoid parking in the
garage. The employees feel that items can be repaired and cars can be fixed although these
items can cause severe financial hardship. However, physical injuries are another, more
serious, matter. A teenager recently fell out of a second story window in the garage. She
suggested the possibility of using volunteers, possibly in golf carts with radios to contact the
Courthouse staff for backup. She emphasized that the employees do not have the answers
but would certainly appreciate the Board's help to make everyone feel safer.
Chairman Tippin thanked Mrs. MacWilliam and expressed his view that this is a very
serious matter. He felt sad that such a beautiful facility in such a beautiful city should have
this problem and asked General Services Director Sonny Dean for his comments regarding
his research into the problem.
Director Dean advised that he spoke with Chief Gabbard of the Vero Beach Police
Department regarding organizing beefed up patrols for the garage and that the Sheriff has
also beefed up walk-throughs. The Police Department has apprehended the perpetrators of
the recent incidents and Chief Gabbard is here today with a report and a recommendation to
control the entrances to the garage.
Director Dean noted that right now anyone can get in all the way around the garage.
The cost of screening the access points would be about $23,000. He commended the City
Police Department for a very fine job and stated that Chief Gabbard has said he would try
to keep a patrol unit in that area at all times.
Vero Beach Police Chief Gabbard commented that everyone is concerned for the
safety of the people in the Courthouse and his Department is aware of what goes on in the
garage. He presented a computer printout indicating that over the last 24 months, the
Department had checked out the parking garage 2400 times. He noted that the City has had
FEBRUARY 24, 1998
a tremendous number of individuals not from our area that have taken up residence in the
downtown areas and there have been problems with homeless persons sleeping in the
stairwells. The Department has worked hard to keep them out.
Chief Gabbard continued that there is unlimited access to the garage. The breezeways
look nice but are a constant invitation for anyone to go in there. Those areas really need to
be secured but he realized that money is an issue. Parking garages are lonely places and can
be frightening, particularly in the evening. They now have an officer patrolling the garage
in a golf cart from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and he hoped that would help the employees to feel
safer.
Commissioner Macht questioned whether the number of incidents at the parking
garage are higher than anywhere else, and Chief Gabbard responded that 14' Avenue is
probably more dangerous. In 1996 they had 6 crimes reported in and around the garage and
a couple of those incidents were related to things going on in court and involved domestic
violence. They also had some kids inhaling nitrous oxide and one incident involving a
juvenile fight about 8 p.m. In 1997, they had 3 reports: a broken fire alarm, a possible break
in of a vehicle and a second vehicle break in which they suspect was also related to a
domestic violence situation. In 1998 they had one reported incident prior to the recent
incident. The individual responsible for this recent incident was arrested and the firearm
involved was recovered.
Chief Gabbard offered his services for some crime prevention programs for staff in
an attempt to have them better understand how to protect themselves and their property. In
several instances vehicles involved in break ins were unlocked and there are a number of
precautions people can be taught to employ.
Chief Gabbard then reiterated that the biggest problem is easy access to the building
and asked the Board to consider putting up fencing with keys being given to the police. This
is an attractive place for kids to go and other buildings have similar problems.
Commissioner Macht commented from personal experience about the problem on
14th Avenue and noted that these people seem to be coming from the local homeless shelter.
He noted one incident where an art gallery employee had to call the police during a very
threatening situation. It would appear that the homeless shelter has become widely known
as a good place to hang out. The park is full of them and several restaurants have had
problems.
Commissioner Adams felt that Barbara MacWilliam had the right idea with volunteers
for security and commended her for coming in with some positive suggestions.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998
-34-
Chief Gabbard commented that the security problem is a 24-hour problem, not just
during the workday; there is another 16 hours a day that the garage is vulnerable. His
primary concern is safety but he also wants to protect property. Volunteers will not work
24 hours a day and there is a need to limit access to the garage. Cameras would only be
needed at access points if access were secured making the property much less attractive to
intruders.
Chairman Tippin wondered whether the Board has the authority to appoint a
committee to come back with specific suggestions.
Commissioner Macht stated the Public Safety Coordinating Committee is already in
existence and he is the Chairman.
Chairman Tippin asked that Committee to meet with Chief Gabbard and Sheriff
Wheeler, General Services Director Dean and Barbara MacWilliam, as a representative of
the employees, and come back with recommendations for the Board.
Clerk's employee Fran Clark stated that she was a witness to the recent incident.
She was returning from lunch and noticed 2 young men but didn't think too much about it.
Then she heard something go "clunk" and the men started running to the other side of the
garage. After she parked, she noticed a broken window and a pipe wrench on the floor
which could easily have been used to attack her. She returned to her car and used her cell
phone to call for help. She noted that better lighting would also help. She apologized for
laying this matter before the Board but felt this is a very serious- problem.
Chairman Tippin agreed that it was a serious problem and anticipated that the
Committee would return within 2 weeks with specific recommendations.
Commissioner Ginn noted that library patrons also use the parking garage and wanted
to be certain that whatever steps are taken do not impede their access to the garage.
CONSENSUS was reached that the County Public Safety Coordinating Committee
will meetwithBarbara MacWilliam, representing the employees, Director Dean, Vero Beach
Police Chief Gabbard and Sheriff Wheeler and come back with specific recommendations
within 2 weeks.

11.A. HIGHWAY BEAUTIFICATION GRANT FOR I-95/SR-60
LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS - THE HORIZON
GROUP. INC. - FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION
The Board reviewed a Memorandum of February 18, 1998:
TO: James E. Chandler
County Administrator
D ON HEAD CONCURRENCE:
Obert M. Keating,`AI
Community Developmint Direor
-4- If.
FROM: Stan Boling, AICP
Planning Director
DATE:. February 18, 1998
SUBJECT: Final Authorization to Apply for Highway Beautification Grant for I-95/SR 60.
Landscape Improvements
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County
Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 24, 1998.
At its regular meeting of January 13, 1998, the Board of County Commissioners approved a phased
master landscape conceptual plan for the I-95/SR 60 interchange area, stated its intention to maintain
special landscape areas within the I-95 and SR 60 rights-of-way, and authorized staff to coordinate
further with The Horizon Group, Inc. and FDOT to prepare a grant application. Staff has
coordinated with Horizon and FDOT and now requests final Board action necessary to apply for a
beautification grant.
The revised landscape master plan proposes three phases, as follows:
Phase 1: (1997) Existing I-95 median plantings installed by FDOT
Phase 2: (1998) Entrance/exit ramp plantings: Horizon contributes $24,870 in site preparation
and design work plus $55,850 cash; FDOT contributes $55,850; Phase 2 total:
$136,570
Phase 3: (1999)1-95 median plantings: Horizon contributes $28,305 in site preparation work
plus $56,375 cash; FDOT contributes $56,375; Phase 3 total: $141,055
Total preparation and installation costs for Phases 2 and 3: $277,625.
For the total project, Horizon is contributing $165,400 (59.60K) in design, site preparation, and cash
towards a phased landscaping project totaling $277,625 in expenses. The other $112,225 (40.4%)
of project costs would come from two FDOT highway beautification grants. One grant is to be
applied for this year for "Phase 2" and another grant is to be applied for next year for "Phase 3".
Maintenance will be the responsibility of the county, and will be specified in a county/FDOT
maintenance agreement that will need to be executed after FDOT awards the grant.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998

Since the January 13th meeting, some changes to the landscaping plan have been made based on
input from MOT and county staff. First, more landscaping material is now proposed along the
I-95/SR 60 on and off ramps, and those improvements are proposed for the next phase (Phase 2)
rather than the last phase (Phase 3). Second, Washingtonia palms will be used nether than Queen
palms; live oaks will be used in the more spacious areas. and crepe myrtle and wild flower species
are proposed in some areas to add color. Changes should also result in a lowering of estimated
annual maintenance costs at project "build -out" from $32.000/year to $24,000/year.
Only Phase 2 will be covered by the proposed 1998 grant application, with Phase 3 to be covered
by the 1999 grant. It should be noted that some design changes will be made in the future to the
Phase 3 portions of the landscape plan. Revised Phase 3 plans will be presented to the Board next
year when staff will request authorization to apply for the 1999 grant for Phase 3.
Similar to recent action taken by the Board in regard to a highway beautification grant for the
Wabasso Causeway, the Board needs to adopt a resolution to apply for the 1998 grant for Phase 2.
The necessary resolution is attached, and staff will forward the resolution to MOT as part of the
application.
Staff has worked with Horizon to develop a cash deposit and escrow agreement to guarantee that
Horizon, or any successor owner/developer of the outlet mall project, contributes the cash funds
necessary for the 1998 (Phase 2) grant application and for a 1999 (Phase 3) grant application. The
agreement format is based on similar agreements used by the county to guarantee construction and
maintenance of subdivision improvements. The attached escrow agreement has been approved by
the county attorney's office and will "lock in" Horizon's financial commitment to the overall
landscape project.
Staff recommends that the Board give final authorization for staff to apply for the 1998 (Phase 2)
highway beautification grant, adopt the attached resolution, and authorize the chairman to execute
the attached cash deposit and escrow agreement upon execution by Horizon and deposit of funds.
Planning Director Stan Boling advised that some changes have been made to the plan
and pointed out that contributions from Horizon will include the design work, site
preparation, and cash contributions. A cash deposit and escrow agreement is also a part of
the backup package. Staff is recommending that the Board grant authorization to apply for
the grant, adopt the resolution, and authorize the Chairman to execute the agreement.
Commissioner Macht commented that nothing obligates Horizon to defray the
County's maintenance expenses, and Director Boling agreed that maintenance will be the
County's responsibility but that the maintenance costs have been decreased through some
of the changes to the project.
Commissioner Macht still was unable to see why taxpayers have any obligation to
maintain a private company's landscaping.
Commissioner Adams felt this is a wonderful example of a public-private partnership
and felt Horizon should be commended for their contributions. She did not see any
difference in maintaining this landscaping and in maintaining public parks. This is an
entryway to the County and will reflect a very positive image.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998

MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Adams,
SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, that the
Board authorize staff to apply for the 1998 (Phase 2)
highway beautification grant; authorize the
Chairman to execute the Cash Deposit and Escrow
Agreement with Horizon, Ltd., as recommended by
staff, and adopt Resolution 98-027 for highway
beautification funding from the Florida Department
of Transportation.
Commissioner Macht emphasized that would still put the taxpayer in a position of
maintaining the landscaping of a private organization and felt it is not the right thing to do.
Chairman Tippin felt improvements need to be made out there and this is an
opportunity for the County to have others improve the area. The Chamber of Commerce has
been trying to improve the western entrance for years and the County will only have to pay
for maintenance. He believed this will be a benefit for all.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED THE QUESTION and
the Motion passed by a 4-1 vote (Commissioner
Macht opposed).

11.GA ROAD RESURFACING - TWO-YEAR PROGRAM

-44-
•
TO: James E. Chandler,
County Administrator
FROM: James W. Davis, P.E.,
Public Works Director"
SUBJECT: Two-year Road Resurfacing Program
FY97/98 and FY98/99
DATE: February 17, 1998
Attached is a list of 55 road resurfacing projects that the Public Works Department is
recommending for a two-year construction period (FY97/98 and FY98/99.) In order to provide
some better coordination with resurfacing projects and the Road and Bridge Division's new road
construction project schedule, staff requests approval of a two-year program instead of a yearly
program. For the FY97/98 budget year, $470,000 was budgeted for asphalt resurfacing. If a
similar amount is budgeted in FY98/99, $940,000 will be available prior to Sept. 30, 1999. The
attached resurfacing program is estimated to cost $1,004,563.24. A shortfall of $64,563.24 is
projected, which could be funded through Fund 109, gas tax revenue, if necessary.
The two-year program for widening (paved shoulders on collector roadways for safety) and
resurfacing roads will permit the Road and Bridge Division to perform certain resurfacing
projects near other road construction projects during the two-year period, thereby reducing the
need to mobilize heavy equipment throughout the County. For example, it is more efficient to
resurface all roads within a two-year program in the Fellsmere area when the equipment is
constructing Willow Street instead of resurfacing half of the roads this year and half next year.
The alternatives presented are as follows:
Alternative No_ 1
Approve the attached two-year road widening and resurfacing program. If the
$64,563.24 shortfall become a reality, staff will recommend in April of 1999 a
funding source to resolve the shortfall.
Alternative No. 2
Approve a one-year program to include the first twenty-six projects (costing
$459,113). If this alternative is approved, the Road and Bridge Division will have
to spread out major road work each year throughout the County, thereby
increasing mobilization time and cost.
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1 whereby a two-year program is approved.

ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams,
SECONDED by Commissioner Eggert, the Board
unanimously approved the two-year road widening
and resurfacing program, as recommended by staff.
13.E. COMMENTS REGARDING TREASURE COAST
REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL
Commissioner Ginn advised that she had made inquiries and was told that all
appointments to Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council are set by rule and their attorneys
would contact County Attorney Vitunac regarding the specific rules involved.
Commissioner Ginn continued that the City of Vero Beach has the matter on their
agenda for next week. They are not particularly interested in staying on the Council but, as
a citizen, she is interested in having them remain a member as she believes there will be
many things coming before the Council that will affect the City.
Chairman Tippin suggested deferring the matter until County Attorney Vitunac
receives more information.
CONSENSUS was reached that the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council's
attorney will contact County Attorney Vitunac who will report back to the Board.
14.A. EMERGENCY SERVICES DISTRICT
The Chairman announced that the Board would recess and reconvene as the Board of
Commissioners of the Emergency Services District at this time, 9:47 a.m.. Those Minutes

DATE: February 18, 1998
RE: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT WORKSHOP
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County
Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 24, 1998.
Consistent with state statutes and state administrative rules, the Board of County Commissioners
adopted the county's current comprehensive plan in February, 1990. During 1996, the county
conducted an evaluation and appraisal of that plan, and adopted its Evaluation and Appraisal Report
(EAR) in December, 1996.
As adopted by the Board of County Commissioners, the EAR identified various changes to the plan,
including updated data and analysis, policy revisions, and modification of objectives, that need to be
incorporated in the plan through a plan amendment. During 1997, staff and county committees
worked on developing these EAR -based plan amendments. The Board of County Commissioners
approved the transmittal of these amendments (which constitute a rewrite of the comprehensive plan)
to the DCA on November 4, 1997. On February 2, 1998, planning staff received the Florida
Department of Community Affairs' (DCA) Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC)
Report on the County's Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) based comprehensive plan
amendments.
Staff has reviewed the objections raised in the ORC Report, and is making necessary changes to the
plan to address those objections. Most of the ORC Report objections are not substantive in nature;
many relate only to clarification of objectives and policies. A final adoption public hearing before the
Board of County Commissioners has been scheduled for March 10, 1998. '
On February 10, 1998, the Board of County Commissioners agreed to have a comprehensive plan
workshop on February 24, 1998. The purpose of the workshop is to address the DCA ORC Report,
reconsider the county's land use designations and densities, and address other comprehensive plan
issues.
Objectives, Recommendations, Comments Report.
A copy of the DCA's ORC Report is attached to this staff report. In preparing the ORC Report,
DCA solicits comments from the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council as well as other state
agencies such as Department of Transportation, Department of Environmental Protection, Water
Management District and others. All appropriate agencies sent their objections and comments on the
county's revised comprehensive plan to the DCA.

Future Land Use Map
Recently, the issue of zoning density vs. comprehensive plan land use map designation density arose
with a rezoning request on Indian River Boulevard. Because of recent court cases and judicial
decisions, local governments have less discretion in considering rezoning requests. Current law now
requires that, once an applicant demonstrates that his rezoning request is consistent with the
comprehensive plan, then the burden shifts to the local government to demonstrate that maintaining
the existing zoning classification accomplishes a legitimate public purpose.
Consequently, local governments rezoning a property to a density lower than allowed by the -
comprehensive plan land use map may not act in an arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable manner.
For that reason, it is important that the Board of County Commissioners feel comfortable with the
land use plan map and the densities reflected on that map.
The county's future land uses are depicted on the future land use map, which is adopted as part of
the county's comprehensive plan. The following table identifies each of the county's residential land
use designations, their maximum densities, and the number of acres within the county having each
designation.
Land Use Designation
Maximum Density
Number of Acres
R, Rural Residential

L-1, Low -Density Residential -1

L-2, Low -Density Residential -2

13,532
M-1, Medium -Density Residential -1
8 units/acre
5,158
M-2, Medium -Density Residential -2
10 units/acre
1,071
In Indian River County, the highest residential land use designation is M-2, Medium Density
Residential up to 10 units per acre. The county's future land use map designates only 1,071 acres
as M-2. That land is located in two areas of the county. One area is on the mainland, east of US 1,
between Oslo Road and the southern boundary of the City of Vero Beach. The other area is in
Gifford; it is generally bounded by the City of Vero Beach on the south, 58'Avenue on the west, 49d'
Street on the north, and the Florida East Coast railroad tracks right-of-way on the east.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998

According to state law, local comprehensive plans have the status of law. Therefore, all development
within a local government's jurisdiction must be consistent with its comprehensive plan, including the
land use map. Furthermore, state law requires local governments to adopt land development
regulations, including zoning, to implement their comprehensive plans.
In Indian River County, all zoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan land use map.
Consistency in this case means that zoning density does not exceed the applicable land use density.
Oftentimes, however, zoning density is lower than, not equal to, the applicable land use plan map
density for a parcel. This occurs sometimes because land is being used for agricultural purposes and
retains an A 1 zoning. In other cases, a zoning density less than the land use designation density has
existed on a property for many years and pre -dated comprehensive plan adoption.
DCA's Objections, Recommendations and Comment Report
As indicated previously, the ORC Report objections are not substantive in nature. To address those
objections, however, the draft plan must be revised. The attached ORC Report Response Matrix
indicates how staff proposes to address each objection and how the objectives and policies associated
with each objection will be revised, if necessary. If needed, staff will provide more information
regarding the ORC report at the workshop.
Future Land Use Plan Map
Because land use density has been a concern of the Board and because the Board is limited in its
rezoning actions by the land use plan map, it is important to evaluate the map and determine if it
adequately reflects the county's vision. Overall, the county's future land use plan map has not
changed significantly from the land use plan map adopted as part of the county's 1982 comprehensive
plan.
The purpose of the future land use map is to implement the goals, objectives, and policies of the
comprehensive plan. As such, the future land use map controls the overall development pattern of
the county. Among other things, the future land use map ensures that the county will have the
following:
o an efficient and compact land use pattern;
o an overall low density character,
o a mix of land uses, housing densities, and housing types that is sufficient to serve all county
residents;
o protection of natural, historic, cultural, agricultural, and economic resources;
o adjacent uses that are compatible with one another; and
o land use densities and intensities that appropriately relate to the availability of services and
facilities.
In order to implement the comprehensive plan and the land use designations identified on the future
land use map, the unincorporated area of Indian River County is divided into zoning districts. These
zoning districts regulate the use of land, water, and structures. Specifically, zoning districts limit the
height and bulk of structures, establish minimum requirements for the areas of yards and open spaces
(setbacks), and regulate the intensity of land uses. -
Under each land use designation, a range of zoning districts is allowed to provide for the maximum
flexibility in relation to development or market need. The maximum density/mtensity allowed by a
zoning district cannot exceed the maximum density/intensity permitted by the land use designation,
unless the comprehensive plan provides for a density bonus.
The table below indicates the two highest residential land use designations for the municipalities in

As shown in the above table, residential densities throughout the county are similar and represent the
type of low rise, low density community which residents desire. In this respect, Indian River County
is different from many areas of South Florida such as the City of Miami, which has land use.
designations that allow densities as high as 250 units/acre. While Indian River County is an
urbanizing area, high densities such as those in Miami are not appropriate and not compatible with
the overall development pattern of the county.
Comparison of the data provided in the above table, however, does indicate that the maximum density
allowed by Indian River County's land use designations is similar to that of adjacent jurisdictions.
Indian River County's maximum allowed density is greater than the barrier island towns of Indian
River Shores and Orchid; approximately the same as the Town of Fellsmere; and less than that of
Brevard and St. Lucie Counties and the Cities of Vero Beach and Sebastian
Appropriate Locations
In Indian River County, medium density (8-10 units per acre) development is allowed within the SR
60 Corridor, adjacent to the City of Vero Beach, and along sections of U.S. #1. This pattern ensures
that medium density areas are located near employment centers, shopping areas, community service
centers, government centers, health facilities and recreational facilities. Generally, those uses generate
demand for the types of higher density and institutional uses allowed within medium density areas.
As structured, the county's future land use pattern can reduce the number and length of automobile
trips on the road network and allow for a viable fixed route mass transit system.
Staffs position is that the future land use plan map represents a reasonable plan for the county's
future growth and development.
Map Changes
Even though staffs position is that the future land use map is adequate and even though no map
changes were found necessary during the EAR process, the Board can amend the future land use
map. It should be noted that the land use map is the basis for the county's water and sewer master
plans, its long range transportation plan, and other plans. For that reason, significant map changes
should be thoroughly analyzed before being adopted.
Although the Board of County Commissioners is scheduled to take final action on the proposed
comprehensive plan amendments at its meeting of March 10, 1998, major changes to the future land
use plan map may not be taken at that time. Because state law mandates public notice and advertising
before changing land use designations, any action to change the map, other than the map changes
included with the proposed amendments, would need to be processed as a separate comprehensive
plan amendment.

Community Development Director Bob Keating commented that a number of staff are
here today who have done all the m -house work on this matter over the past few years, just
in case there are questions in their particular area. This is a workshop meeting primarily to
get questions and suggestions in order to make the adoption hearing on March 10th a little
easier. As required by state law, in 1996 an Evaluation And Appraisal Report (EAR) was
prepared. Most of 1997 was spent incorporating the changes in the EAR and making
revisions to the Comprehensive Plan. These changes were presented to the Board in
November and submitted to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) which has
responded with their Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report (ORC). DCA's
ORC report in this instance has been very complimentary, with very minor objections. Staff
must now respond to the report and incorporate the changes into the final document which
will be presented for final adoption on March 10'h, 1998. There are 3 major issues to
discuss: (1) the ORC report; (2) the Comp Plan map; and (3) the new concept of allowing
development outside urban service area known as Traditional Neighborhood Design
Communities (TND).
Director Keating continued that none of the DCA objections will be difficult to deal
with. The County's Future Land Use Map allows for enough development to accommodate
more than 4 times the projected growth, with the higher densities mainly contiguous to the
City of Vero Beach and the SR -60 corridor. The TND is one of the newer concepts in
planning which has become prominent over the last 10 to 15 years as an alternative to the
traditional development patterns seen in the last 40 years. It makes a lot of sense as it is
designed to achieve a lot of objectives: compact and mixed development, reduction in the
number of vehicle trips, promoting a sense of community and neighborhood, and
incorporating public open spaces. Staff has spent a lot of time with one developer who had
property both outside and inside the urban service area. This has led to the development of
Objective 18. This objective is not restrictive or a mandate, but provides more opportunities
for development. If the Board wishes more information regarding TNDs, additional
workshops could be scheduled.

Planning Director Stan Boling continued that this option allows development without
expanding the urban service area. It allows a transfer of density from inside to outside the
urban service area which the Comp Plan does not allow. The TND would be more restrictive
in some respects than a Planned Development (PD) and less restrictive in others.
Commissioner Eggert expressed her concern regarding Policy 18.2 which "shall
include" reduced setbacks, lot requirements, corner radii and off-street parking requirements.
She felt it is a great concept but there is almost a total lack of flexibility.
Chairman Tippin commented regarding the philosophical changes in planning in the
last few years. At one time low-density development with lots of green space was
encouraged but that type of development is now thought to contribute to urban sprawl.
Commissioner Macht felt that care must be taken with clustering to make it feasible
as the success of commercial ventures is crucial.
Commissioner Ginn agreed that business can only survive if the customers are there.
When commercial enterprises are put outside the urban service area, they cannot prosper.
She dislikes density bonuses intensely but felt this is a creative idea which needs to be
attempted.
Commissioner Adams noted that the City of Fellsmere has been a TND for many
years. It is not the buildings or organizations who make a community, but the people who
live there. She was anxious to see the TND concept tried and felt the Board should not be
afraid of change.

Chairman Tippin opened the meeting to the public for comments.
Doug Bournique, representing the Indian River Citrus Growers, believed that
Objective No. 6 is very restrictive. Their cash crop is citrus and if some disaster strikes, such
as canker, the medfly or some type of disease, the grower has no other cash crop which could
be grown on this land on those particular soils. The grower must be left with the ability to
claim value in his property in order to go to an institution and borrow money. He hoped that
the growers would be allowed some input regarding this objective.
Glenn Legwen commented regarding Objective 18 which states that between 1/1/98
and 1/1/2010, 10% of new residential development will be located in TND projects:
Comprehensive Plan CLERK TO THE BOARD Future Land Use Element
Between January 1,1998 and January 1, 2010, ten percent of new residential development
(dwelling units) occurring in unincorporated Indian River County will be located in
Traditional Neighborhood Design projects.
Mr. Legwen wanted to know whether there were any measures included to make
certain development stayed within the 10% figure.
He then commented regarding Policy 18.1:
Policy 18.1: By January 1999, the county shall adopt land development regulations that establish the
TND, Traditional Neighborhood Design zoning district. The TND district shall be limited to
planned developments. To qualify as a TND development, projects must meet the following criteria:
Policy 18. 1, Item 4 says "...no block face dimension should exceed 400 feet." He
presumed that 400 feet referred to length and wanted to know whether it applied to walls.
Item 5 says "... shall contain .... pathways." He requested a definition of pathways and
whether the definition refers to dirt or decorative pathways. Item 6 says "...pedestrian and
automobile needs ... discourage high automobile speeds...". Does that refer to speed bumps
or curves? Also "... accommodate transit systems...", does that refer to a big city transit
system which we do not have in Indian River County unless it refers to the community

coach. Regarding Item 7, he inquired whether the "buffer" would be 20, 40 or 60 feet and
what kinds of trees would be provided. Regarding Item 8, he wondered whether the reduced
building setbacks would encourage residences closer to the street with larger backyards and
commercial activity would require parking in back of the businesses. Regarding Item 17, he
wondered whether "transit stop and a civic building" would be considered commercial or
residential and how a civic building would be defined. He commented that when he arrived
in this area and drove along SR -60 there were trees and groves but now there is commercial
activity all the way from I-95. He wondered what it will look like in 2010 and hoped it
would look different from Melbourne or Ft Pierce.
Debb Robinson, Vice President ofLaurel Corporation, expressed her concernthatthe
Board not tie its hands so that it will be unable to control what is done in the future. She
believed that 80% of development would be in the southwest quadrant of the County. She
did not believe that single-family people could be forced to move to a designated area. She
felt the vision is a good one but did not believe that staff has the ability to foresee all the
details. She felt the concept is wonderful but will be driven by the market and that forcing
cluster development in agricultural areas would be unfortunate. She believed that this area
will be greatly impacted by baby boomer retirees, as well as people moving from the
southern part of the state.

The Need for Agricultural Protection/Planning is Based
on Four Assumptions:
1. Population growth in the County will continue.
2. A crucial goal for Florida and Indian River County is to preserve its
internationally recognized agricultural capacity, which means adequate
amounts of land must be preserved for farming.
3. Farmland has different values to different people.
4. Urban expansion will continue to be the overriding force for land use unless
agricultural and urban interests work together.
Viewpoints of Farmers and Residents occupying land at the
Urban Service Area (USA) Perimeter*
Farmers:
Restraints on normal agricultural
practices such as spraying, mowing,
cultivating.
Liability for trespassers.
Theft, vandalism, litter.
Damage from pets.
Exotic pests --for example, the Medfly.
Urban traffic creating problems for
tractors and farm machinery on local
roads.
Residents/Urbanites:
Pesticide use, particularly the problem
of drift.
Nighttime activities involving lights
and noise.
Odor, particularly from animals,
manure, and compost fertilizers.
Flies, mosquitoes, and other pests.
Tractors and farm machinery on local
roads.
Dust and smoke.
Both groups site general economic or environmental concerns arising from proximity. In
addition, uncertainty or unpredictability of future land use at the expanding edge can be a
disadvantage to both farmers and urbanites.

Ways to maintain Viable Agriculture at the Urban Edge
• Buffers
• Transition
• Right to Farm Laws
• Nuisance disclaimers
• Regional Planning
• Economic Incentives
• Research and Development of New Management Practices for Agriculture.
For Example- IPM, Biotechnology, Sprayer Design Improvements,
Sustainable Agriculture.
Considerations in Developing a Good Buffer Policy
• How effectively does the buffer reduce conflicts on both sides?
• Who provides and who maintains the buffer?
• Is there intergovernmental cooperation on land use issues?
• Who might favor or oppose the buffer requirement?
• What other benefits are associated with the buffer?
• How can a buffer policy be applied consistently and also allow necessary
flexibility?
Types of Buffers
• Large lot residential subdivisions- residential lots ranging from 1-10 acres
• Industrial development
• Barriers- walls, fences, berm, landscaping, trees
• Transportation corridors and waterways
• Greenbelts- parks, golf courses, trails, bikeways

Mr. Adair was concerned that the TND development would be targeted at the
boundary of the urban service area because of the close proximity of the agricultural area.
He emphasized that the Center is trying to develop safe farming practices and reminded the
Board that before the development of the Indian River Mall there was quite a bit
agricultural space. He felt that agricultural sprays, noise, odors and the quality of the
farming roads generally found in those areas would cause problems with residential
development. He then presented a brochure regarding a conference to be presented by the
University of Florida in Tampa, Florida, on Land Use in a Growth State:

Florida.
• That the land market is an essential means :, r .: ,orating rights to land.
• That there are alternative policy approachc L tructuring the land
market to assure that various non -market benel us and costs of land use
pattems are considered.

Commissioner Ginn inquired about the conference and was told that it will be brought
before the Board at its meeting on March 3, 1998. She felt it would be wise to have someone
attend this conference and expressed again her concerns about 25 foot buffers which she did
not believe to be adequate buffering between agricultural and residential projects. She also
noted that Collier and Lake Counties have done a study regarding the economic impact of
agriculture and believed that Indian River County should also participate in such a study.

Chuck Mechling, principal of Onsite Management Group, stated that he is the guinea
pig for the TND in the County. He emphasized that staffhas been diligent in watch -dogging
for the County and that there are a lot of technical issues still to be finalized. The planned
development will have a 300 foot green belt around the community and there will be a local
bank, a gym, and a childcare facility so that people will not have to go outside the
community for these services. His organization is also in negotiations with a major golf
association to building a golf training facility and plans to donate land for a west county
library branch and an elementary school.
Pat Corrigan, a local cattle rancher and citrus producer, noted that the TND sounds
like a moratorium. He felt that agriculture in Indian River County is in need of help and
destroying the value of its collateral will not help in any way. He believed the plan should
not be implemented without a great deal of public input.
Debb Robinson again asked the Board to make certain to approve regulations
everyone can live with.
Commissioner Ginn questioned whether there would be a net loss in agricultural
lands, and Director Keating assured her this is not a proposal to change agricultural lands.
Director Keating continued that the statistics show that Indian River County has about
4 times as much land as is needed for projected population increases. He also noted that the
plan is not static and can be changed every 6 months if the policies do not work or there is
an unexpected growth spurt.
After further general discussion, Commissioner Eggert expressed her concerns about
the economic impact on agricultural entities and asked staff to meet with representatives of
the agricultural concerns to see if something could be adjusted in Objective No. 6 to make
them more comfortable.
Director Keating agreed that staff would do that and commented that the proposed
plan is less restrictive than the current plan.
General discussion followed regarding the Bert Harris Property Rights Act, and
County Attorney Vitunac noted that any land use designation that reduces an owner's legal
rights would be subject to that Act.
FEBRUARY 24, 1998
Pete Robinson, Vice President of Laurel Homes, cited the example of Vista
Plantation which was developed at 4 units per acre, rather than at the approved 8 units per
acre. He suggested that it might be time to look at what actually exists rather than trying to
create straight lines.
Commissioner Macht noted that if properties are developed at 10 units per acre, there
will be large traffic problems, and Director Keating commented that DOT has a project to
6 -lane US #1 and review its intersection with Indian River Boulevard. He also stated that
some of the land involved is in conservation and some are elderly projects which will have
much lower traffic generation rates. Staff is making certain that land uses can be supported
by transportation planning.
Staff agreed they will meet with representatives from the agricultural community to
discuss their concerns.
CONSENSUS was reached for staff to revise the draft plan consistent with the
Department of Community Affairs' Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC)
Report response matrix and staff was directed to present the revised amended plan for
adoption at the March 10, 1998 Board meeting.
There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded and carried, the
Board adjourned at 11:52 a.m.
