(CONSOLIDATED),,CIRCUIT CURT, 19TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT -
DECISION NOT TO APPEAL
Acting Chairman Macht made comment contesting the attorney's fees in the amount of
$51,200.00 awarded by Judge Hawley as being a tremendous amount.
Deputy County Attorney Collins said he filed a motion in opposition and argued that a
reasonable attorney's fee based upon statutory factors would be $19,503.82. However an appeal
would involve additional attorney's fees and court fees to the County and he recommended that
no appeal be taken.
ON MOTION by Acting Chairman Macht, SECONDED by
Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously (5-0) decided that no
appeal be taken, as recommended by staff.
9. B.1. PUBLIC DISCUSSION ITEM - FRED N. BOHLER, JR. - DRAINAGE
PROBLEMS AT HERON CA Y MOBILE HOME COMMUNITY
Fred Bohler, 42 Calypso Cay, Heron Cay, recounted standing-water/stormwater drainage
problems that have been on-going for more than a year at Heron Cay Mobile Home Community.
Community Development Director Robert Keating and other staff were very helpful and had
written the park owner explaining what needed to be done in order to get the drainage problems
corrected. The park owner's attorney wrote back advising that the problem belongs to the
individual homeowners. More correspondence has been sent and the situation has gone on too
long. He had been waiting for Deputy County Attorney Collins to write the park owner asking
that he abide by the conditions set out in Mr Keating's earlier letter. He was now appealing to
the Board for action.
Deputy County Attorney Collins concurred with Mr. Bohler's comments adding that
although the park owner's attorney believed responsibility for the drainage was that of the unit

owners, he had not come to that conclusion nor did he agree with that opinion. He estimated that
writing such a letter would take about two hours of his time. He apologized to Mr. Bohler and
said he thought he was as frustrated as Mr. Bohler. He then explained that other priorities had
occupied his time such as Calpine, Lost Tree, VAB, 7 active litigation cases, grant deadlines, and
purchase of property for jail expansion. Each matter takes time.
Commissioner Adams recognized that Mr. Collins, as the most seasoned attorney in the
County Attorney's office, does a tremendous amount of work. It seemed to her that this should
have gone through Code Enforcement.
Deputy County Attorney Collins advised that ultimately this would go to Code
Enforcement but staff looked to him to see who should be cited.
Discussion ensued whereupon County Attorney Paul Bangel advised he would arrange to
see that this matter is handled.
Acting Vice Chairman Ginn spoke in defense of Mr Collins hoping that Mr. Bohler
understood and assuring him that this will be taken care of as soon as possible. She also wished
the Health Department to be advised.
Administrator Chandler added that staff believed responsibility rested with the park
owner, but then the attorneys got involved. He confirmed that the Health Department had been
notified and concurred that the situation needs to be resolved.
Commissioner Neuberger questioned the time involved and asked if an engineer could
tell him the problem and whether or not the development was built to specifications.
Community Development Director Robert Keating explained that he and County
Engineer Chris Kafer had visited the mobile home park. They were not sure of the genesis of the

problem. In his letter to the park owner, the owner was directed to have an engineer survey and
determine the magnitude of the problem and to design solutions. The County felt the burden
was on the park owner to identify the solutions and be responsible for their execution.
Commissioners expressed their concerns about the time element and Acting Chairman
Macht remarked it resulted from the involvement of lawyers on both sides. He thanked Mr.
Bohler for bringing this to their attention and assured him it will get resolved.
9.B.2. PUBLIC DISCUSSION ITEM - JERRY L. SUMMERS — VERO BEACH/INDIAN
RIVER COUNTY RECREATION DEPARTMENT — SKY EAGLE INDIAN ASSOCIATION
Jerry Summers, a resident of 6th Street, Vero Beach spoke about the Recreation
Department split between the County and the City of Vero Beach. He stated many facts were
overlooked regarding the employees and the community in general and he was asking for a full
investigation.
Acting Chairman Ken Macht concurred with a recommendation from
Commissioner Tom Lowther requesting Mr. Summers bring this matter before the Parks and
Recreation Committee at their next meeting and to report back to the Board, if necessary.
9.R.3. PUBLIC DISCUSSION ITEM— FRANCIS M. COFFEY— BRANCH LIBRARY AT
THE MUELLER CENTER, INDIAN RIVER COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Clerk's Note: See related item 11.C.1.
Frank Coffey, a resident at 5015 Fairway Circle, Vero Beach, spoke about the
proposed joint library at the Indian River Community College (IRCC) Mueller Center. There
have been a lot of general comments regarding a branch library at the Public Library Advisory
Board (PLAB) meetings, but no meaningful discussions to quantify the most desirable location of
a branch. He felt it was inappropriate for County staff to meet with IRCC officials prior to any
meaningful discussions with members of the PLAB regarding the location of a library at the
Mueller Center. He recommended that the Board conduct workshops to receive taxpayers'
comments regarding projects to be funded from the extension of the 1 d sales tax.

Commissioner Ginn said before she could vote on any issue we need to have a public
hearing and a public workshop on our priorities for the next five years on the 1 ct optional sales
tax. Mr. Baird suggested several projects, but no public hearings were conducted and we
promised the public that this would be done.
Assistant County Administrator Joe Baird advised he had listed projects for the next five
years when the 1¢ sales tax was presented to the Board, which included the libraries, the jail, and
the fire stations. Mr Baird understood these projects have already been approved by the Board,
and were published in the newspaper. He clarified that the meeting with IRCC officials was only
exploratory, in order to gather information. He suggested that it be put on the agenda for the
PLAB and on the agenda for the Board at this meeting for the concept to be considered. He
stressed that no commitment was made.
Acting Chairman Macht concurred with Mr. Baird adding that the proposal to locate a
branch library at IRCC was originally presented to the Board three years ago by Commissioner
Carolyn Eggert and the concept was approved at that time.
County Administrator James Chandler explained that the library funds set aside for a west
library branch had been reallocated for the renovations at the Main Library and the expansion of
the North County Library.
Commissioner Ginn asked that the Board be apprised prior to any meetings. Mr. Baird
restated that it was an initial meeting to gather information in order to present to the Board.
Acting Chairman Macht felt it is eminently correct for members of staff and appropriate
Commissioners to discuss an issue such as this with anybody. He did not understand the
objection. Nothing is set into motion until the Board approves it in front of the public.
Commissioner Ginn felt it is appropriate to have another public hearing, to afford the two
new Commissioners an opportunity to voice an opinion before we set priorities on the one -cent
sales tax.

Commissioner Adams suggested researching the library item and coming back with a
prioritization meanwhile, she agreed a workshop on sales tax money would be helpful and the
proposed projects for those funds over the course of the next fifteen years
Commissioner Neuberger felt that we need a public hearing to reaffirm what has already
been established. He felt it was unnecessary to have a workshop.
Acting Chairman Macht pointed out that IRCC is working with the Legislature to obtain a
subgrant that would produce a 4 -year university. This would bring employment opportunities to
our community. He asked the Board to look at this matter as a leveraged item to put before the
Legislature. In the interest of informing the public and since Dr. Massey would be making a
presentation, he deferred further discussion to 11.C.1.

11.0 1 L IRRA R Y BRANCH AT MUELLER CENTER- JOINT USE WITH
INDIAN RIVER COMMUNITY COLLEGE (1 ¢ SALES TAX)
General Services Director Tom Frame briefly reviewed the history of the funding for
additional library branches, noting that the funds that had been allocated for a new branch had
been used in the renovations to the Main and the North County Libraries. The matter of a new
branch was then taken to the PLAB and their recommendation was to further negotiate with
IRCC for anoint use library at the Mueller Campus.
Dr. Edwin Massey, President of Indian River Community College, made a brief
presentation regarding the Campus' plans for expansion and noted that everyone seems to agree
that the County, IRCC and the taxpayers would benefit from a joint -use library in that area.
Commissioners Lowther, Ginn and Macht spoke in support of the concept.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Lowther, SECONDED by
Commissioner Ginn, the Board unanimously (5-0) designated the next
branch library as listed in the approved capital projects list of the first
five-year plan for the extended 10 sales tax as a joint use facility on the
Mueller Campus as recommended by the Public Library Advisory Board,
subject to satisfactory negotiations and agreements for joint use and costs
between the County and Indian River Community College, as
recommended by staff.
