FROM: Joseph A. Baird
OMB Director
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
In the past, the Friends of the Library has leased three (3) coin operative copiers for the Main Library
in the Friends name. Recently the Department of Revenue has issued a ruling that the leases would
no longer be tax-exempt unless they were in the County's name and paid for by the County.
This ruling has required us to put the leases in Indian River County's name and make the payment.
The Friends of the Library will receive the revenue from the copiers and will donate the amount of
the lease payment to the Board of County Commissioners. The document in front of the Board of
County Commissioners today is to change the lease name on the copiers from the Friends of the
Library to Indian River County.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the Chairman to sign all
documents to change the lease for the three coin operative copiers at the Main Library from the
Friends of the Library to Indian River County.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED BY
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously authorized the
Chairman to sign all documents to change the lease for the three
coin operative copiers at the Main Library from the Friends of
the Library to Indian River County, as recommended in the
Memorandum.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:
Currently the County has a Section 8 Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) with the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as identified on the attached notice
from HUD. In essence, the only thing that really changes is the funding increment number.
No additional signatures are necessary except for certification by the County on Form HUD -

agency (Indian River County) has not and will not make any prohibited payment from federally
appropriated funds.

Lobbying Activities disclosing any payment made, or agreement to make a payment, with other
than federally appropriated funds for influencing or attempting to influence executive or
legislative branch personnel in connection with new or renewal funding.

DATE: March 17, 1999
SUBJECT: MISCELLANEOUS BUDGET AMENDMENT 011
CONSENT AGENDA
THROUGH: Joseph A. Baird
OMB Director
FROM: Jason E. Brown
Budget Analyst
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
The attached budget amendment is to appropriate funding for the following:
1. On March 3, 1999, the Board of Commissioners approved payment of fees associated
with tax deed applications for 13 parcels. The attached entry appropriates funding from
the General Fund reserve for contingencies.
2. The Building Division has experienced an increasing number of telephone calls in the
customer service area. The Treasure Coast Builders Association has recommended an
additional position be added to expedite the handling of permit inquiries. In order to

DATE: March 15, 1999
SUBJECT: Resolution Densifying the Indian River County Horizontal Control
Network
In 1996 the Board, by Resolution, defined the Indian River County Horizontal
Control Network as a 6 -mile grid of monumentation placed by GCY, Inc. under
contract with Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
We have received a request from the mapping section of the Property
Appraiser's Office to re -define the Horizontal Control Network to create a 2 -mile
grid using additional GCY monuments and monuments placed by the City of
Vero Beach.
County Ordinance 913.07(6)(D)(10) (copy attached) requires subdivisions within
1 mile of such a monument to be tied into the Horizontal Control Network. The
ordinance does not require revision, but the Resolution defining the Network
should be revised to reflect the 2 -mile grid.
RECOMMENDATION:
Pass the accompanying Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of
Indian River County, Florida re -designating the °Indian River County Horizontal
Control Network".

9.A. PUBLIC HEARING - ORDINANCE 99-010 - FALSE ALARM
ORDINANCE
PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR BEARING
IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD
The Board reviewed the proposed ordinance which had been discussed at the table
previously.
Sandy Shields, a planner with the Sheriff's Office, advised the alarm ordinance had
been modeled after one that the Model States Program had provided. They invited input
from both local and state alarms companies and had changed sections in accordance with
some of their recommendations. The draft was brought before the Legislative Committee
of the Chamber of Commerce and the changes they suggested were incorporated into the
draft presented to the Board of County Commissioners about a month ago.
Ms. Shields then responded to questions of Commissioner Adams concerning the
proposed ordinance advising that changes recommended by the Commissioners were inserted
in the proposed ordinance. These changes included putting in the initial registration and
renewal fee of $30. The renewal fee will be waived if there are no false alarms in a year.
The makeup of the board and how it will be convened have been changed. Also, it
has been clarified that the ordinance will be administered by the Sheriff's Office. She also
identified the types of responses which shall be determined to be a false alarm.
Commissioner Ginn was concerned about Section 18, Violations, and the $500 fine,
which seemed very steep to her.
Ms. Shields responded that Section 18 was put in as a "catch-all" for any items not
addressed elsewhere in the new ordinance. The rest of the ordinance speaks about licensed
alarm companies; there is an issue of unlicensed alarm companies that are practicing in the
county.
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in
this matter. There being none, he closed the public hearing.

We hope that after a review of the enclosed information the Board will endorse and. make a
coordinated egbrt to press the responsible agencies to. correct the environmental • problem as
expeditiously as possible. .
There. is no question that the majority of the iniac was deposited while the Army Corps of
Engineers was in the process of digging the C-54 Canal, and prior to 1996 when the flood gate was
owed to control the wet weather discharge, redirecting the water back into the St. Johns Flood
Plain was.a big plus for the Sebastian River and the Lagoon. However, thia:deep deposit of muck
is in the river, and it will continue to create the detrimental environmental problem to the river and
the Lagoon
We 'Would like this issue to be considered at the next Cammsaioners Board meeting.
When viewing the enclosed tape, we hope you will focus on the content and sincerity and excuse
the lack of professionalism..
Please let usknow if you need any further information. .

Gordon Maltby, 9884 Riverview Drive, Sebastian, a retired engineer, advised of
concerns about muck resulting in the deterioration of sea life, sea grass and fishing in the St.
Sebastian River. He and George Koraly (who was not present) have spent many hours in a
boat sounding and measuring the depth of the muck in the St. Sebastian River (and where it
flows into the Indian River Lagoon), the north and south forks and the C54 canal up to the
dam, and for the 12 miles between the two dams.
(CLERK'S NOTE: MR MALTBY HAD BROUGHT A VIDEO WITH HIM, BUT
INITIAL EFFORTS AT SHOWING THE VIDEO WERE NOT PRODUCTIVE. THE
CHAIRMAN MOVED THE MEETING FORWARD UNTIL STAFF WAS ABLE TO
SHOW THE VIDEO. ALTHOUGH THE VIDEO WAS FINALLY SHOWN AFTER
AGENDA ITEM 10 WAS COMPLETED, FOR PURPOSES OF CONTINUITY, THE
AGENDA ITEM CONTINUES BELOW.)
The purpose of the amateur video, narrated by Mr. Koraly, was to demonstrate the
dramatic detrimental effect the muck has on many aspects of marine ecology. He reported
their findings through the use of photographs, charts and a demonstration of two live shrimp,
one placed in an aquarium with sand and the other placed in an aquarium with muck. The
shrimp in the muck was lifeless after the approximately 40 -minute test period, while the one
in the sand was still very much alive.
(CLERK'S NOTE: The sound from the video is available in its entirety on the cassette
and video recordings of this meeting.)
Mr. Maltby advised that the purpose of bringing this to the Commission was to get
their help with the agencies responsible for the removal of the muck and for the sources of
additional muck. He thanked the Commissioners for their attention.
Commissioner Macht thought the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) intended
to do that and thought the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) might also have
an interest and asked for information from the Commissioners.
Commissioner Adams responded that it was obviously something the St. Johns River
Water Management District (SJRWMD) has been active in; also the Indian River Lagoon
National Estuary Program has promoted this over the past several years having recently de -
MARCH 23, 1999

BOOK 103 PAGE 7E9
BOOK 108 PAGE 770
mucked Crane Creek and presently de -mucking Turkey Creek. There is an effort underway
to put the St. Sebastian River next on the agenda. Now that everyone has seen how
successful Crane Creek is, everyone wants their river de -mucked.
Commissioner Adams credited Messrs. Koraly and Maltby for bringing this problem
to the forefront. They have spent an incredible number of hours sounding the waterways to
see how deep the muck is and calculating the amount of muck coming out of the river. The
interesting part is they understand what they are doing and by their estimates, de -mucking
should not be as expensive as originally estimated. Their findings have caused them to feel
there is a significant responsibility on the Army Corps of Engineers, who designed and built
the C54 Canal; the way the gates open, the muck is allowed in. She thought that the
Commission ought to be very supportive of the de -mucking effort. Commissioner Stanbridge
is the new representative of the Commission on the National Estuary Program which ought
to be supported in moving it through SJRWMD to provide for the de -mucking
Chairman Macht thought it extremely important to be aware that the smell along the
river in Brevard County or north St. Lucie County at certain times of the year is caused by
the muck, not anything else. The odor is caused by decaying organic matter.
Commissioner Stanbridge commented that fortunately SJRWMD has dis-allowed
plugs of fresh water out of the canal. As a result the muck has settled, so hopefully, when
the money is obtained to do the cleanup, we will not have the problem recurring. We have
had historical problems since the teens when the old Fellsmere Sugar Canal went in which
were later compounded by the C54 Canal. She thought the Board should support all these
efforts, especially the environmental community that encourages volunteers to participate.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED
BY Commissioner Ginn , to direct staff to draw up a resolution
of support to move the St. Sebastian River de -mucking project
forward and try to coordinate some funding efforts, if necessary.
Mr. Maltby thanked the Commission for their support.

POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR 9-1-1 SURCHARGE FUNDS TO
PURCHASE 3 REPLACEMENT CAD MONITORS - BUDGET
AMENDMENT
The Board reviewed a Memorandum of March 10, 1999:
TO: Honorable Board of County Commissioners
THROUGH: James E. Chandler, County Administrator
FROM: Doug Wright, Director
Emergency Services
DATE: March 10, 1999
SUBJECT: Request from the Vero Beach Police Department for 9-1-1 Surcharge Funds to Purchase
Three Replacement Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) Monitors
On March 9, 1999, a request was received from the Vero Beach Police Department requesting funding
from the 9-1-1 Surcharge Revenue to replace three 21" Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) monitors for
the 9-1-1 Secondary Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) at the Vero Beach Police Department.
Pursuant to Chapter 365.171, Florida Statutes, Indian River County imposes at 9-1-1 fee which is paid
by local subscribers, on an individual access line basis, at a rate of $.50 per month per line up to a
maximum of 25 access lines per account bill rendered within the boundaries of the County to be used
for 9-1-1 expenditures. The surcharge fee is not assessed on pay telephones in the County.
The revenue from the 9-1-1 fee imposed in the County does not provide the total funding for the
primary PSAP located at the Sheriff's Department or the secondary PSAP located at the Vero Beach
Police Department. Expenditure of the funds is limited to functions of database management, call
taking, location verification, call transfer, certain types of equipment and equipment maintenance, and
specific personnel expenses as noted in the referenced statute in Section #6.
Replacement of the CAD monitors is an allowable expense of the 9-1-1 Surcharge revenue. The
replacement monitors were not included in the current fiscal year budget, however, sufficient funds are
available in the contingency account of the Communications Center (120-133) budget to accommodate
the Vero Beach Police Department request.
MARCH 23, 1999

BOOK IA PAGE 773
BOOK 103 PAGE 774

for the purchase of the monitors will be from the contingency account of the Communications Center
budget (120-133). Staff also recommends the Board approve the necessary budget amendment to
appropriate the funds for the expense related to the purchase of the monitors.

Staff is seeking authorization to improve the work area and obtain the greatest use of available space
for the Radiological Emergency Analyst in the Department of Emergency Services. The space utilized
MARCH 23, 1999
•

•
by this 100% grant funded position is 10.8 feet by 11.2 feet or 120.95 square feet which is very small
when it is considered that this space is also being used for the following:
1. CPU, monitor, and keyboard for the Fiber Optic Cable System Manager.
2. CPU, monitor, and keyboard for the 800MHz Radio Communications System Manager.
3. CPU, monitor, and keyboard utilized by the Radiological Analyst.
4. Three UPS units for computer equipment.
5. Three printers, one very large for 800 MHz System.
6. Four speakers to monitor 800 MHz radio transmissions.
7. Switch for speaker modules.
8. 22 two inch three ring binders containing 800 MHz radio system and fiber optic cable
system information.
9. Three foot by six foot metal equipment rack.
10. Unsecured storage area for communications equipment - radios, pagers, chargers, GPS
units, etc.
11. Two open bookcases used for storage.
12. Unsecured storage area for radiological measurement equipment.
The individual in this position has the collateral duty of Radio System Manager and on a frequent basis
must monitor channel functionality, reset alarms, identify equipment problems, change control channels,
review telephone interconnect calls, and I -Calls on the 800 MHz Communications System so that site
alarms can be identified and maintenance scheduled to preclude major problems. The fiber optic cable
node monitoring equipment also has to be monitored since fiber optic cable is the link between the
towers and the system alarms must be corrected when they occur or the entire system could be adversely
affected.
Staff has received authorization from FP&L to use some of the funds left over from the transition of
employees when the former Radiological Analyst was promoted. It should be noted that the person
prior in this position did not have the 800 MHz system manager responsibilities. FP&L authorized
utilization of not more than $5,000 from existing funds to improve the work area by installing new
carpet ($268) to replace the soiled, torn, and worn existing carpet and purchase modular furniture off
of state contract ($2,314) to obtain the greatest functional use the available work space. Drawings are
attached as to how the furniture would be installed in the space so that access to the equipment would
be available and this arrangement would also provide adequate space for the employee to perform
required administrative functions.
It should be noted that Telecommunications Manager Terry Smith also has to access the fiber optic
cable system manager for purposes related to other uses of the total fiber optic cable system in the
County within the same office space. In the existing arrangement, office furniture obstructs easy access
to the fiber optic system manager. It would also provide easier access for mamtenance personnel to
make repairs to the equipment located in the office space. This work area is also used to store other
types of communications equipment which is currently unsecured. The modular furniture includes lock
type storage for the portable radios, pagers, chargers, equipment in transition for repairs, and GPS units.
The expenses for the work area improvements are100% funded by FP&L grant funds, which if
not utilized for this project, would have to be refunded to FP&L at the end of the fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the transfer of $5,000 in FP&L Radiological Emergency Preparedness
Grant funds from the Salaries account to the Office Furniture account and Other Operating Supplies
account to be used for work area improvements as noted above. Only the necessary funds will be
expended. Staff also requests approval of the necessary budget amendment to appropriate and expend
the funds.

evaluated and ranked. Attempts to come to terms with insurers making the first
two proposals were unsuccessful. Over the last several months the County has
been meeting with representatives of the Guardian Life Insurance Company of
America in an attempt to finalize a voluntary dental insurance benefit for County
employees.
The proposal as presented requires a 5 -week enrollment period. Because it is a
voluntary program, employees will not be compelled to attend enrollment,
although they will be encouraged to do so to be fully aware of the benefits that
they are either opting for or declining. If the Guardian is successful in enrolling
thirty-five percent (35%) of the County employees in its dental insurance
program by April 30, 1999, the dental insurance program will go forward. If the
thirty-five percent (35%) level of participation is not attained, the agreement will
be null and void and terminated. The monthly employee premiums and the
coverage for Plan A and Plan B is summarized below.

11.F.1. EMPLOYEE GROUP LIFE INSURANCE - INCREASE AGE
LIMIT - TRANS -GENERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
The Board reviewed a Memorandum of March 12, 1999:

BOOK 108 FACE '1 /9
BOOK 108 FAGE78D
TO: James Chandler
County Administrator
,
FROM: Ro �.� er
Personnel Director
DATE: March 12, 1999
SUBJECT: Increase of Group Life Insurance Age Limit
Staff requests consideration of the following information at the March 23, 1999, regular meeting of
the Board of County Commissioners.
Background
The County's current group life insurance contract with Trans -General Life Insurance Company
contains a provision that reduces the amount of life insurance in force at age 70 by 50%. This
provision violates current County policy, specifically AM -105, Employer -Employee Relationship, and
several employees are adversely affected by it. However, since we only have a few employees who
are 75 years of age or older, increasing the age limit to 75 will provide the County with adequate time
to notify the majority of the employees of this change in their life insurance benefit prior to their
turning age 75.
By increasing the age from 70 to 75, the County will incur an additional cost of $.01/$1,000 per
month, total annual cost of $4,761.48, on the basic life insurance only. Trans -General Life will
guarantee this new basic life rate until October 1, 2000.
Recommendation
Staff requests Board approval to increase the group life insurance age limit from 70 to 75.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED BY
Commissioner Stanbridge, the Board unanimously approved the
increase of the age limit from 70 to 75 in the group life
insurance, as recommended in the Memorandum.

SUBJECT: Change to Section AM -105 of the Administrative Policy Manual
Staff requests consideration of the following information at the March 23, 1999, regular meeting of
the Board of County Commissioners.
Background
Section AM -105, Employer -Employee Relationship, of the County's Administrative Policy Manual
states we will not discriminate based on age (paragraph 1. b.). However, the County's current life
insurance contract with Trans -General Life Insurance Company contains a provision that reduces the
amount of group life insurance in force at age 70 by 50%. Because this provision violates County
policy, a stipulation needs to be added to the policy that states upon reaching age 75, an employee's
life insurance in force will be reduced by 50%. A draft policy with this added stipulation is attached
for your review.
Recommendation
Staff requests Board approval to add the above-mentioned stipulation to Section AM -105 of the
County Administrative Policy Manual.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED BY
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously approved the
stipulation as set forth in the Memorandum. to Section AM -105
of the County Administrative Policy Manual, as recommended

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
When Mesa Park was developed east of Fellsmere along the north side
of CR512, two stormwater retention ponds and a sign slightly
encroach the County's Murphy Act right-of-way along CR512. In the
future, a frontage road may be constructed which would require
relocation of the ponds and sign. The attached agreement allows
the encroachments to exist until the County notifies the Mesa Park
owner to relocate them out of the Murphy Act right-of-way. Once
notified, Mesa Park will remove them at their expense.

Staff has no objection to the attached agreement. The alternatives
are:
Alternative No. 1
Approve the agreement and authorize the Chairman's
signature.

SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Application for
Florida Inland Navigation District Grant -
Moorings Channel Dredging
DATE: March 22, 1999
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
The Moorings Yacht Squadron, a not-for-profit agency, is requesting
the County to sponsor a Florida Inland Navigation District
Waterways Assistance Grant application for the dredging of an
existing navigational channel, near the Moorings, and installation
of thirteen (13) channel markers. The Channel was initially
constructed by the Indian River County Mosquito Control District in
the 1950,s. Siltation has resulted in several shallow areas that
impede navigation. The project cost is $50,000. The grant request
is $45,000 (904) and the Moorings Yacht Squadron will fund the
remaining $5,000. Currently, the lack of a definable channel is
causing damage to grass beds in the area by watercraft.
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS
This application will be the third application for County
sponsorship this year. The three applications are as follows:
1) Wabasso Causeway Improvements $175,142.88
2) Jungle Trail Stabilization - Engineering $ 11,250.00
3) Moorings Channel $ 45.000.00
$231,392.88
It is possible that all three could be funded, since approximately
$250,000 may be available for Indian River County. The
alternatives are as follows:
Alternative No. 1
Approve the request and authorize the attached Resolution
sponsoring the project. The priority of this project is
number 3 in comparison to the Wabasso Causeway and Jungle
Trail project.
,Alternative No. 2
Deny the request.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1 whereby the authorizing
Resolution is approved. No County funding except for minor staff
time is needed.

MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED
BY Commissioner Stanbridge, to approve the Three Year Plan.
Under discussion, Commissioner Ginn complimented staff for an excellent job in
putting together the Three Year Plan, especially Joyce Carlson and Jean Kline who are to be
commended for it. She asked that they move forward with the recommendations for asset
mapping and on-going data collection and analysis and so forth but thought that part might
have to come back because it involved some funding needs.
Chairman Macht confirmed that whatever involves funding would have to be brought
back.
Jean Kline, Health Department Administrator, advised of one change on the time -line
for the recommendations for drug and alcohol abuse, that it be switched to a 4 -year
evaluation instead of a 3 -year evaluation because of the sequencing of the PRIDE survey to
evaluate outcomes. She appreciated the thanks for the work done by the committee.
Chairman Macht advised that the committee met every Friday at 3:30 p.m. for a "one-
hour meeting" that lasted until about 7 p.m. It involved a lot of volunteer citizens and it took
a lot of knowledge and heart to do it.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the motion

contract and that M. B. Adelson was present to explain why the State wanted to add the
words.
MARCH 23, 1999

M. B. Adelson, Senior Assistant General Counsel with State of Florida Department
of Environmental Protection, advised that Commissioner Adams had previously requested
a change in the agreement which deleted the words "not to exceed $100,000" and when he
brought that back to the FDEP they got very nervous about signing a blank check. They have
reinserted those words along with giving good faith assurance that if the State is going to
invest that kind of funding and effort in the study, they will not fall short of the finish line.
The contract can certainly be amended based on a competent study proceeding in a
reasonable way, if needed. They will continue to help. They have committed to do that in
writing and would like to get the study started, see where it goes, and if it needs to be funded
further, they will make every effort to do that.
Commissioner Adams explained that, similar to the way the Commission sets its
budget of putting a dollar amount, rather than a percentage, this was a "sticking point" in
Tallahassee. In her discussion with Kirby Green, he offered to write a letter as Mr. Adelson
had stated, that if the cost is more than $100,000 that an amendment would be done. She felt
they had made a good faith effort to come to the table in order to bring this to closure.
Chairman Macht thought this might be the dawn of a new relationship with the DEP
which was more constructive than previously. He appreciated Mr. Adelson's efforts. He
hoped this would be the hallmark of things to come.
Mr. Adelson hoped it would be also.
Commissioner Ginn took exception to wording in the agreement that the County had
"improperly issued permits for temporary emergency armoring". She asked Mr. Adelson to
define an IR -512 ATF, and he advised that it was the permit that was issued by the
Department to the Summerplace folks. She then asked if that was a permanent permit
because it said in the agreement that the Summerplace homeowners must provide a
vulnerability study to the FDEP which provides areasonable assurance that the Summerplace
petitioners are eligible to receive Department Permit IR -512 ATF.
Mr. Adelson reminded her that Mr. Tomasello had stated (two meetings prior) that
it was okay with the applicants would provide the vulnerability study. In order to qualify for
the permit, the Statute requires eligible vulnerable structures to be permitted. This completes
the eligibility so the contract can be confirmed. In response to Commissioner Ginn's further
inquiry, he explained what the vulnerability study does and that the consultant who prepares
the study will establish the vulnerability and, once established, then the Department issues
the permit to protect that vulnerability. The Department anticipates confirming the permit

as soon as the study is submitted.
Commissioner Ginn found the language confusing particularly with respect to the
"section 10", and Mr. Adelson explained that a "section 10" relates to the federal authority
which under the Federally Endangered Species Act, has the power, ability, duty,
responsibility to declare what would ordinarily be a take, to be an "authorized incidental
take." By going through the process, once the permit is authorized, there is no imprimatur
from it being issued because the take has been authorized in the overall county plan that
balances impacts with protections and those other things that the plan will do. He called that
their good faith effort to go forward with the plan so they do not have to focus on a single
property and keep it out of the context of the entire county protection scheme. He thought
there would not be any problem in issuing the permits once the study has been completed.
Mr. Adelson also advised that once all this has been completed, the property owners
Will be able to complete their walls in a permanent structure manner. That is the purpose of
issuing the permit, but it has to be arrived at by going through the proper steps.
To Commissioner Ginn , it seemed that the County was acting in very good faith but
that the FDEP was keeping all its options open.
Mr. Adelson assured her that the Department is acting in good faith and they are
trying to strictly follow the laws and rules they are required to follow, not to anyone's
disadvantage, but to make sure that once it is done correctly that it is unassailable by anyone
else who might not like it.
Commissioner Ginn wanted very much to believe Mr. Adelson's assurances, but felt
the County might or might not be accomplishing something. She did not think there were
any assurances that citizens would not continue to be harassed by the DEP. She wanted
more assurances that if we go through this the homeowners will get their permits.
Mr. Adelson indicated that the process would go quickly, dependant upon County
staff. He recapped that the County has the State's funding, commitment for scientific and
technical support, but that the County was responsible for the speed in which all of it is
accomplished. He stated the DEP would be responsive and support the County in any way
possible, but they did not want to interfere or give instructions.
Commissioner Adams understood Commissioner Ginn's fear, doubt and frustration.
She thought that having done a lot of research on the HCP and the process, having been
enlightened on the statute, that this does come out to be a win-win and when it is done, it sets

the parameters for any other seawall that comes in and there may be more. She felt the State
had bent over as far as possible without violating the statute.
'Vince Bruno, representing the Simpson seawall, appreciated the efforts of DEP and
the Commission. He felt it was getting close to resolution of the matter, but in an effort to
try to conserve some money for the homeowners, he asked that, since there has been a
vulnerability study done on the properties to the north and south, whether these studies
would be acceptable.
Mr. Adelson explained by using the analogy that a building permit on one property
does not allow his neighbor to also build. He again stated that his office would be as
responsive as possible but could not give a time line, that it was up to the County to
determine how quickly the process would go forward. DEP is ready to get behind how the
County wants to do this overall county plan instead of having individuals apply for permits.
He hoped that this would be the beginning of how DEP would be doing business in the
county by all agreeing under the HCP process.
Commissioner Adams committed on behalf of herself and staff to move forward as
quickly as possible. She recounted that they had been working on it since November.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED
BY Commissioner Tippin, to accept the $100,000 limit as
proposed by the FDEP along with the backup letter additional
amendment, if necessary.
Commissioner Ginn wanted the people to know that she was on their side and that she
will carefully watch this and, if necessary, call a press conference on the steps of the Capital
in Tallahassee if the process does not move forward and if the commitments are not kept.
Commissioner Tippin thought it was very refreshing to see the changes happening in
Tallahassee. He was encouraged that it was an effort of how we (County and State) can
work together to accomplish a particular goal. He appreciated Mr. Adelson coming to Indian
River County to work this out.
Commissioner Stanbridge felt very good about this because we will now be able to
proceed with beach restoration with the HCP which will save us a tremendous amount of
time and money.
