The cost of the work identified within the agreement was S245 , 37/ 5 . When presented to the
Board staff did indicate as part of the backup that "as work progresses , unexpected and
unforeseen conditions may occur. '

occupied jail facilities , Siemens was directed to proceed under a time and materials directive as
provided for within the agreement .
The attached change order is for 56 , 850 and is reflective of 51 , 034 in materials and $ 5 , 816 in
labor charges .

In light of the cause of damage, and the need to correct damages equipment and replace the
faulty wiring within an occupied correctional facility, staff recommends the Board ' s approval of
Change Order # 1 as submitted.

SUBJECT : REQUEST TO APPROVE RANKING OF SHIP INSPECTOR PROPOSALS AND
TO AUTHORIZE NEGOTIATIONS WITH TOP RANKED PROPOSERS
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County
Commissioners at its regular meeting of September 18 , 2001 .
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
On April 6 , 1993 , the Board of County Commissoners adopted the Indian River County Local Housing
Assistance Plan (Ordinance #93 - 13 ) . By adopting the plan and subsequently receiving Florida Housing
Finance Corporation approval of the plan , Indian River County became eligible to receive State
Housing Initiatives Partnership ( SHIP ) Program funds . Per state requirements , the county ' s Local
Housing Assistance Plan has been revised several times since then , and the county ' s eligibility to
receive SHIP funds has been maintained .
The purpose of the SHIP program is to provide affordable housing for qualified households . As
structured, the county ' s SHIP Program provides low interest , deferred payment , subordinated loans to
eligible very low income , low income , and moderate income households . Most of these loans provide
downpaymenticlosing cost assistance , with private financial institutions providing principal mortgages
for loans involving the purchase of a housing unit.
SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 Lr
- 27 -
Besides providing downpayment/closing cost loans , Indian River County, through its Local Housing
Assistance Program , also provides rehabilitation loans to very low , low , and moderate income
households within the county . For the next few years , it is anticipated that about 20 - 30 rehabilitation
loans will be granted each fiscal year. Procedurally, rehabilitation projects involve various activities ,
including application review , housing unit assessment, rehabilitation work write-up , bid review ,
construction oversight , and inspection . At present, housing unit assessment, work write -up , and bid
review activities are being undertaken by Indian River County building inspectors , with reimbursement
from Local Housing Assistance Program ( SHIP ) funds . Because of time constraints with the county ' s
building inspectors , Indian River County proposes to contract some of those activities to a Local
Housing Assistance Program inspector. The Local Housing Assistance Program (LHAP) Inspector
will be responsible for meeting with applicants , inspecting units , preparing work write-ups , reviewing
contractors ' bids , and inspecting completed work activities .
ANALYSIS
To solicit the services of a residential building contractor to inspect houses needing rehabilitation , the
staff issued a Request For Proposals (RFP ) in July, 2001 . In response to that RFP, three residential
building contractors submitted proposals .
On August 30 , 2001 , a three member SHIP Inspection Contractor Selection Committee (Robert M .
Keating , Jason Brown , and Dennis Koerner) interviewed and ranked the contractors . Following is the
list of contractors and their corresponding ranking.
Contractors Ranking
Phil Hufford (Quality Builders ) 1
J . F. Meyers (General Contractor) 2
Gary Kostenski (G-K Builders ) 3
The selection committee then recommended that the county negotiate contracts with both the number 1
and 2 ranked contractors for SHIP inspection services . If agreeable with the contractors , these two
contractors will be contacted on a rotating basis to inspect units needing rehabilitation .
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the Selection Committee ' s ranking
and authorize staff to negotiate contracts with the number 1 (Phil Hufford) and the number 2 (J . F.
Meyers ) ranked residential building contractors for the SHIP rehabilitation program inspection services .
ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams ,
SECONDED by Commissioner Stanbridge , the
Board unanimously approved the Selection
Committee ' s ranking and authorized staff to
negotiate contracts with Phil Hufford and J . F .
Meyers , first and second ranked residential building
contractors for the SHIP rehabilitation program
inspection services , as recommended by staff.

The Board reviewed a Memorandum of September 10 , 2001 :
Date : September 10, 2001
To : The Honorable Board of County Commissioners
Thru : James E . Chandler, County Administrator
From : Thomas W. Frame, General Services Director
Subject : Indian River Countv Jail Detention Electronics/Siemens Building
Technologies, Inc. Change Order #2
BACKGROUND :
On March 6 , 2001 , the Board approved an agreement between the County and Siemens Building
Technologies, Inc . , for the replacement of jail detention facilities such as control panels, video
cameras and monitors , wire management improvements and integration of existing components
in Control Room A in Building A and Control Room B in Building B . The cost of the work
identified within the agreement was $ 245 ,375 . The work is approximately 98 % complete and
has generated one change order in the amount of $ 6 , 850, raising the agreement cost to $ 252 , 225
The original amount budgeted was $ 500, 000 .
Building C was built using the same type of controls but some items need replacing and other
components need to be updated. In reviewing these needs with Siemens , it was found that the
necessary components and upgrades could be installed for $ 36 , 785 as_ an extension of the
existing agreement.
Attached is a memo from Buildings & Grounds Superintendent, Lynn Williams, detailing the
need and the how it can be retrofitted to fix the problem.
With Change Order # 1 ($ 6 , 850) and the if this extension to the agreement in the form of a
change order ($ 36 , 785 ) is approved, the total cost of up -grading and retrofitting will become
$ 289 , 010 leaving $ 210 , 990 as a balance to the original budgeted $ 500, 000 .
RECOMMENDATION :
Since this would bring all controls up to date and would standardize all the controls in the jail , it
would be wise to proceed now while the contractor is on site and near completion of the current
work under agreement. Staff would recommend the Board ' s approval of Change Order #2
extending the agreement with Siemens Technologies , Inc . for the additional work in Control
Room C in Building C (Pod C ) as specified in the letter to Lynn Williams dated September 5 ,
2001 .

Carter Associates , Inc . , on behalf of the Indian River County Public Works Department, has
requested a waiver of the cut and fill balance requirement of Section 930 . 07(2)(d) of the Stormwater
Management and Flood Protection Ordinance . Jungle Trail Conservation Improvements received
site plan approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission on March 8 , 2001 . The project is
located at 11325 Jungle Trail . The site is located in special flood hazard area Zone AE with base
flood elevation of 7 . 0 ft. N . G. V . D . The ten year Stillwater elevation is 4 . 3 feet. The proposed
displacement of the floodplain below 4 . 3 feet for which the waiver is requested is 7, 320 cubic yards

situated in an estuarine environment within the 100 year floodplain along the Indian River and in
staff s opinion it appears that all other Stormwater Management and Flood Protection Ordinance
requirements can be met without adverse impact on other lands in the estuarine environment .
Alternative No . 1
Approve the cut and fill balance waiver request.
Alternative No . 2
Deny the cut and fill waiver and require re-design to accomplish an on- site balance of cut and fill
RECOMMENDATIONS

Commissioner Adams expressed her concerns regarding a sole source purchase and
the addition of this very expensive item to the Agenda . She felt that prices are dropping and
support is improving . She stated that she would be more comfortable with going to bid and
having presentations from the top 3 bidders . She was aware that Supervisor Clem has
worked very hard on this item and has done a tremendous job but she was not comfortable
with rushing into a decision .
Chairman Ginn commented that she had attended the presentations by Sequoia, as
well as the presentation made by ES & S . She believed that the other systems do not compare
to the system offered by Sequoia . She reminded the Board that everyone had been told about
the presentations and this is really not such short notice . There will not be another Board
meeting until October 2 , 2001 which would mean another delay . She also noted that
Supervisor Clem is merely asking for authorization to proceed with negotiations , the contract
will be brought back to the Board and Sequoia will have to be competitive in their offer .
Commissioner Adams preferred to have the item published in the newspaper , and
Supervisor Clem noted that it had been included in the agenda publicized for today ' s
meeting .
Supervisor Clem continued that she and her staff will be in an elections conference
on October 2nd . She would like to get the system installed and have the training completed
before the 2002 primary . There will be many changes and voter education must begin early .
Chairman Ginn felt that the other systems pale by comparison with Sequoia ' s system
and she was comfortable with authorizing the negotiations .
MOTION was made by Commissioner Adams ,
SECONDED by Commissioner Macht , to go to bid .

After discussion , Chairman Ginn CALLED THE QUESTION and the Motion failed
by a 1 - 4 vote (Commissioners Ginn , Stanbridge , Macht and Tippin opposed) .
Mrs . Clem clarified that her request is for permission to begin negotiating a contract
with Sequoia .
Commissioner Adams inquired whether Sequoia ' s system has been certified by the
state , and Mrs . Clean responded that ES & S is the only system certified so far . However ,
there are no state or federal standards as yet and ES & S may have to change their equipment
when the standards are decided .
ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht ,
SECONDED by Commissioner Tippin , the Board ,

RE : Thomas S . Hammond ' s Request to Rezone 30.34 Acres from RINIH- 8 to R-NI - 8
(RZON 2001 -07- 0010)
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County
Commissioners at its regular meeting of September 18 , 2001 .
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS
This request is to rezone X30 . 34 acres from RMH - 8 , Mobile Home Residential District ( up to 8
units/acre), to RM- 8 , Multiple- Family Residential District (up to 8 units/acre) . Depicted in Figure
1 below , the subject property is located on the north side of 26h Street ( Walker Avenue) ,
approximately a quarter mile east of 74h Avenue (Range Line Road ) .
The purpose of this request is to secure the zoning necessary to develop the site with multiple- family
uses . Those types of uses are not permitted in the RMH- 8 district, but are permitted in the RM- 8
district .
On August 9 , 2001 , the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 to 1 to recommend that the Board
of County Commissioners approve the request and rezone the subject property from RMH - 8 to RM -
8 .

Existinu Land Use Pattern
The subject property and properties to the east, west and south are zoned RMH - 8 . Land to the north
of the site is zoned A - 1 , Agricultural District ( up to 1 unit/5 acres ) . The subject property and
properties to the north consist of old citrus groves . The Village Green Mobile Home Park is located
to the west and to the south of the subject property . East of the site , land consists of undeveloped
woods and an equipment storage area for the Village Green Mobile Home Park .
Future Land Use Pattern
The subject property and properties to the east, west and south are designated M - 1 , Medium- Density
Residential - 1 , on the county future land use map . The M- 1 designation permits residential uses with
densities up to 8 units/acre . North of the site , land is designated L - 1 , Low- Density Residential - 1 ,
on the county future land use map . The L - 1 designation permits residential uses with densities up
to 3 units/acre .
Environment
Consisting entirely of citrus groves , the subject property does not contain any wetlands or native
uplands . According to Flood Insurance Rating Maps , the subject property does not contain any flood
hazard areas .
Utilities and Services
The site is within the Urban Service Area of the county . Wastewater service is available to the site
from the South Region Wastewater Treatment Plant, while potable water service is available to the
site from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant .
Transportation System
The site is bordered on the south by 26' Street, a two lane road that is classified as an urban collector
road on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map . Although most of 26`h Street , between 66`h
Avenue and 74" Avenue , has approximately fifty feet of public road right- of- way , the segment of
26`h Street that abuts the subject property has approximately 80 feet of public road right-of- way . The
bridge connecting 26`h Street to 74`h Avenue is programmed for widening by the end of 2003 . No
other improvements to this portion of 26" Street are currently programmed .
ANALYSIS
In this section , an analysis of the reasonableness of the rezoning request will be presented .
Specifically , this section will include :
• an analysis of the request ' s impact on public facilities ;
• an analysis of the request ' s consistency with the county ' s comprehensive plan ;
• an analysis of the request ' s compatibility with the surrounding area ; and
• an analysis of the request' s potential impact on environmental quality .
SEPTEMBER 18 , 200167
- 49 -
Concurrency of Public Facilities
This site is located within the county Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale
development. The Comprehensive Plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water,
Wastewater, Solid Waste , Drainage and Recreation . The adequate provision of these services is
necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community . The Comprehensive
Plan and Land Development Regulations (LDRs ) also require that new development be reviewed
to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained .
Policy 3 . 2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall be approved unless it
is consistent with the concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements
Element. For rezoning requests , conditional concurrency review is required .
Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a
proposed project. Since rezoning requests are not projects , county regulations call for the
concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon the
requested zoning . For residential rezoning requests , the most intense use ( according to the County ' s
LDRs ) is the maximum number of single- family units that could be built on the site , given the size
of the property and the maximum density under the proposed zoning . The site information used for
the concurrency analysis is as follows :
1 . Size of Area to be Rezoned : X0.34 acres
2 . Existing Zoning District: RMH- 8, Mobile Home Residential District (up to 8 units/acre )
3 . Proposed Zoning District : RM-8, Multiple-Family Residential District ( up to 8 units/acre)
4 . Most Intense Use of Subject Property
Under Existing Zoning District : 242 Single- Family Units
5 . Most Intense Use of Subject Property
Under Proposed Zoning District: 242 Single- Family Units
As per section 910 . 07 (2 ) of the Concurrency Management Chapter of the County ' s LDRs , projects
which do not increase densis or intensity of use are exempt from concurrency requirements . This
rezoning request is exempt from concurrency review because the requested zoning would not
increase the allowed density of the site .
Because the most intense use of the property will not increase, changing the property ' s zoning from
RMH- 8 to RM - 8 will not create additional impacts on any concurrency facilities . In this case , a
detailed concurrency analysis will be done in conjunction with any new development on site . That
concurrency analysis will address facility service levels and demand .
Consistency with Comprehensive Plan
Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all policies of the comprehensive plan .
Rezonings must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future
Land Use Map, which include agriculture , residential . recreation , conservation , and commercial and
industrial land uses and their densities . Commercial and industrial land uses are located in nodes
throughout the unincorporated areas of Indian River County .
SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 ,
rG X08

The goals , objectives and policies are the most important parts of the comprehensive plan . Policies
are statements in the plan which identify the actions which the county will take in order to direct the
community ' s development. As courses of action committed to by the county , policies provide the
basis for all county land development decisions . While all comprehensive plan policies are
important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing rezoning requests . Of particular
applicability for this request are the following objective and policies .
Future Land Use Element Policies 1 . 13 and 1 . 14
Future Land Use Element Policy 1 . 14 states that the M - 1 , Medium- Density Residential - 1 , land use
designation is intended for residential uses with densities up to 8 units/acre . In addition , Future Land
Use Element Policy 1 . 13 states that these residential uses must be located within the urban service
area.
Since the subject property is located within an area designated as M - 1 on the county ' s future land
use plan map and is located within the county ' s urban service area, and the proposed zoning district
would allow residential uses no sreater than the 8 units/acre permitted by the M - I designation , the
proposed request is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policies 1 . 13 and 1 . 14 .
Future Land Use Element Objective 4
Future Land Use Element Objective 4 states that the county will reduce the number and length of
trips on county roads .
The site is located near several employment centers within the SR 60 Corridor and the City of Vero
Beach . Many people who work in those employment centers live in moderately - priced, multiple-
family housing . The RM - 8 zoning district is intended for such uses . Therefore , the proposed
rezoning will provide the opportunity for people who work in those areas to live near their jobs , thus
reducing the length of their trips to and from work . For this reason , the request implements Future
Land Use Element Objective 4 .
As part of its consistency analysis , staff compared the proposed request to all the applicable
objectives and policies in the plan and found no conflicts . Therefore , the request is consistent with
the comprehensive plan .
Compatibility with the Surrounding Area
Compatibility is not anticipated to be a major problem for multiple - family development on the
subject property . The following factors indicate that the subject property is a logical location for
multiple - family development :
• The site ' s future land use designation ( M - 1 ) allows densities up to 8 units/acre .
• Multiple - family and mobile home development is an established pattern in this part of the
county .
• Multiple - family or mobile home zoning districts exist on three sides of the subject property .
• The site is close to several employment centers and to the SR 60 Corridor .
SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 BK 4 ) b J
- 51 -
Any potential incompatibilities associated with development of the subject property would involve
the citrus groves to the north of the site . The following factors indicate that potential impacts on
those groves could be mitigated :
• Multiple - family projects must go through the site planning process . Through that process
potential impacts can often be mitigated by site design such as the placement of buildings ,
parking areas , open space, stormwater management areas, and landscaping. Containing more
than 30 acres , the subject property can accommodate additional buffers , if necessary .
• Because the mobile home park on the west side of the subject property co - exists with the
active grove to the north, it is reasonable to believe that, if properly sited on the parcel ,
multiple - family development on the site can also co-exist with those groves .
For these reasons , staff feels the requested zoning district would be compatible with surrounding
areas .
Potential Impact on Environmental Quality
Being a citrus grove, the site does not contain any environmentally important or environmentally
sensitive habitat. For that reason, impact on environmental quality is not a major concern with this
request. Environmental protection regulations for the subject property are the same under both the
existing RMH- 8 and the requested RM- 8 zoning districts . For these reasons , no adverse impacts on
important environmental resources associated with this request are anticipated .
CONCLUSION
Based on the analysis , staff has determined that the requested zoning district is compatible with
surrounding areas , is consistent with the comprehensive plan , meets all concurrency criteria, will
have no negative impacts on environmental quality , and meets all applicable rezoning criteria. Most
importantly, the subject property is located in an area deemed suited for multiple- family residential
uses . For these reasons , staff supports the request.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the analysis , staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend that the Board
of County Commissioners approve this request to rezone the subject property from RMH- 8 to RM- 8
by adopting the attached ordinance .

Community Development Director Bob Keating reviewed the project for the Board .
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard
regarding this matter .
Attorney Bruce Barkett , 756 Beachland Boulevard , representing the applicant , noted
that the project is within the urban service area and near Indian River Mall , Ryanwood and
the Route 60 Corridor .
Chairman Ginn expressed some concerns relative to affordable housing , and Director
Keating stated that he was aware of the situation she referred to and would be supplying
more information relative to that problem .
Suzanne Grayson , 7000 20 " Street, Community Director of Village Green , stated that
the residents of Village Green were originally opposed to the project but have met with the
owner and come to some agreements . They are recommending that the piece of land of
approximately 10 acres located between the subject project and their project be used as a
buffer . They are aware that this will be an upscale project and have been told that the
density will not be 8 units per acre . The residents of Village Green were originally opposed
to the multi- family zoning , not to the density per acre .
Brian Heady commented that this project will only increase low - income j obs and the
County would be better served by projects providing Iing -wage jobs .

SUBJECT : Calpine Inc. ' s Request for Conceptual Site Plan and Special Exception Use
Approval to Construct an Electrical Power Plant Facility
It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration b _v the Board of Countv
Commissioners at its regular meeting of September 18 , 2001 .
PROPOSFD DEVELOPMENT OPMENT AND BACKGROUND.-
Environmental
4 K RO JND -Environmental Consulting and Technology Inc . has submitted an application for conceptual site plan
and special exception use approval for an electrical power plant facility . The subject site is zoned
A- 1 , Agricultural ( up to 1 unit/5 acres ) and is located between I - 95 on the west, and 74th Avenue
S . W . on the east. and between 21st Street S . W . on the north and the Indian River CountviSt . Lucie
County line on the south . The proposed electrical power plant is considered a heavy utility use
which requires special exception use approval in the A- 1 district .
SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 Bpi 1 9 Pr' /' 7
- 59 -
The applicant is proposing to construct a 1080 megawatt electrical power plant which will use
natural gas as a fuel source. The plant will consist of four heat recovery steam generators , two
support buildings, cooling towers , and a variety of other support structures and equipment . In
contrast to the Vero Beach Power Plant, the generators at the Calpine facility will not be housed
within a building, but will be located outside on concrete pads. The new facility will connect to, the
existing 230 KV transmission lines that run along the west side of I-95 via overhead lines . The plant
is to provide wholesale power to customers via the electrical grid . A new natural gas line is
proposed to be constructed across the state, through St . Lucie County, and will connect to the
Calpine site from the west. If all local and state approvals are obtained, the applicant is anticipating
the plant going into service in 2004 .
PLANNING: AND ZONING COMNIISSlOIS ACTION
At its regular meeting of August 9th, 2001 , the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
unanimously (6-0) to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners grant special exception
use and conceptual site plan approval , with conditions . Those recommended conditions would
require changes to the buffering along two sections of the west property line, adjacent to 1-95 . More
details on the buffering is included in the aesthetics analysis section of this report. The staff' s
recommendation differs slightly from the Planning and Zoning Commission ' s on the amount of plant
material required in one of the buffer sections along the west property line.
The Board of County Commissioners is to approve, approve with conditions , or deny the special
exception use request. Pursuant to Section 971 . 05 of the land development regulations (LDRs), the
Planning and Zoning Commission is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use for the
subject site and surrounding area. The county may attach conditions and safeguards necessary to
mitigate impacts and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area.
If the conceptual site plan and special exception use are approved, the applicant will submit a major
("final") site plan application at a later date. That application will be reviewed by the Planning and
Zoning Commission .

to the subject site as detailed below . A two-way driveway will be constructed at the north
end of the subject site and provide for internal circulation through the site. The internal
circulation system has been reviewed and approved by the County ' s Traffic Engineering
Division.
Given its size and operating characteristics, the facility will generate less than 100 average
daily vehicle trips . The applicant has indicated that there will be 32 employees on site in
a 24 hour period (all shifts included) and that the project will generate approximately 78 trips
per day . Based on its location and low traffic generation, the County ' s Traffic Engineering
Division has indicated that no off- site improvements are required . The internal circulation
system has been designed to accommodate the larger vehicles necessary to service the site.
9. Off-Street Parking : Required : 34 spaces
Proposed : 44 spaces
10 . Stormwater Management : The conceptual stormwater management system has been
reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department. The conceptual stormwater plan
depicts the stormwater being collected in swales and routed to a triangle shaped pond
( stormwater tract) at the south end of the site. A detailed stormwater plan will be reviewed
and approved with the major site plan application. The applicant will need to obtain a Type
"A" stormwater management permit prior to release of the major site plan .
11 . Landscape Plan : The applicant has indicated that a landscape plan meeting the criteria of
chapter 926 and the buffering criteria in section 971 . 44( 3 ) will be provided with the major
( " final ") site plan application. A portion of the required buffer material will be provided
through the preservation of existing vegetation. Staff is recommending that all vegetation,
including native pines, be retained along the project perimeters and outside the area of
development .
12 . Utilities : The applicant is proposing to connect to water and sewer. This is acceptable to the
Department of Utility Services and the Department of Health . Although the site is outside
of the urban service area, the site is adjacent to the urban service area boundary ; therefore,
the proposed facility is allowed to connect to county water and sewer service based on
comprehensive plan policies .
13 . Dedication and Improvements :
74th Avenue Right-of-Way : Presently, there is 30 ' of right-of-way for 74th Avenue
which is a local road that requires 60 ' of right-of-way . In lieu of dedicating the right-
of- way to the County as a fee simple dedication, the applicant has agreed with the
Public Works Director to provide the additional 30 ' of right-of- way necessary to meet
the 60 ' minimum local road right-of- wav requirement via an easement . This
allowance is based on the following provisions :
• Calpine will grant an additional 30- foot public utility and drainage
easement along the eastern boundary of the site to the county .
• The roadway will be paved at Calpines7s expense and will be located
in the westernmost 20 feet of the existing 30- foot road right-of-way,
leaving the easternmost 10 feet unpaved. This will provide a 10'
separation between the edge of road pavement and the Indian River
SEPTEMBER 18 , 2001 7 9
- 61 -
Farms Water Control District Lateral C Canal right-of-way which is
located immediately to the east of the existing road right-of-way.
• The road will be sloped away from the adjacent Lateral C Canal .
• Calpine will design its stormwater management system to accept
stormwater runoff from the portion of 74th Avenue adjacent to the
Calpine Site .
Thus , a 60' wide public drainage, utilities , and access corridor will be created , with
Calpine accommodating on its site the stormwater which would usually be treated
within a 60 ' wide local road right-of-way .
14 . Environmental Issues :
• Uplands : Since the site is over 5 acres , the native upland setaside
requirements of section 929 . 05 apply. The project contains 46 . 3 acres of
native upland area. Calpine has indicated that it will meet the upland
preservation requirement through a combination of preservation and fee- in-
lieu of preservation, as allowed by the 929 . 05 requirements . The specifics of
the preservation and fee-in-lieu will be determined with the major site plan .
• Wetlands : There are two isolated jurisditional wetlands which comprise 4 . 2
acres of the overall site . The applicant is proposing to avoid any wetland
impacts and retain (preserve) the wetlands within the development.
Therefore, no wetland mitigation is required.
15 . Concurrency : It is anticipated that the applicant will obtain a conditional concurrency
certificate prior to consideration by the Board. This will satisfy the project ' s concurrency
requirement .
16 . Specific Land Use Criteria : _
The following criteria of section 971 . 44(2 ) apply to major utility uses :
a. Any power generation facility shall be consistent with the provisions of the Florida
Electrical Power Plan Siting Act, Chapter 33 , Chapter 403 F . S . ;
Note : The applicant is concurrently going though the Power Plant Siting Act
( PPSA ) procedure with the State of Florida. The applicant is anticipating
completion of the PPSA procedure in February of 2002 . The applicant is in the
process of complying with this criterion . Prior to site plan release, the applicant
will need to demonstrate completion of the PPSA approval process.
b . All below- ground voltage cables within a utility right- of- way shall be made known
to the public through the use of signs posted therein ;
Note : The applicant has indicated that there will be no below ground cables .
Thus , this criterion is not applicable.

18 , Compatibility : The site is located in a generally remote area of the county near other uses
which make the area unattractive for future residential development . These uses include
industrial facilities like Ocean Spray, and public facilities such as the County landfill, I- 95
and a State Correctional Facility . While the power plant should be compatible with these
types of nonresidential uses , staff had concerns regarding noise , odor, general aesthetics,

and air quality. These concerns were addressed through the review process .
• Noise : To address noise concerns, the applicant provided a noise modeling study.
This modeling study measured existing noise levels at 3 separate locations for all of
the parameters listed in the LDR ' s , and then projected the plant ' s expected noise
levels based upon data from similar existing power plants. The study concluded that
the plant would increase noise at all three locations for all periods of measurement,
but will operate at noise levels that would meet the county ' s LDR criteria. It should
be noted that the closest residential development is Spanish Lakes Fairways , a
residential development in St. Lucie County, which is separated from the subject site
by a drainage canal right-of-way and significant vegetation . The closest unit in
Spanish Lakes Fairway, is approximately 400' from the subject site and
approximately 850' from the nearest structures on the Calpine Site. Please see
attachment #4 for the noise study.
• Odor : The applicant has indicated that natural gas will be the only fuel burned.
Based on the applicant ' s experience with similar types of operations , the applicant
has indicated that no unusual or offensive odors will be created .
• Aesthetics : Staff' s main concern regarding aesthetics is the "public view" of the
plant from I-95 , which is a main thoroughfare through the County. Presently, there
is a large number of native pines on the site. Staff will work with the applicant to
preserve as many of the trees as possible throughout the site. Tree preservation and
interior landscaping, in conjunction with the requirement of a Type "A" buffer along
the west property line, should provide an adequate visual buffer from I- 95 .
As previously indicated in the staff report, staff is recommending a Type "A" and
modified Type "A" buffer along the site ' s west property line adjacent to I-95 . At the
August 9th Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the applicant expressed two
concerns regarding the recommended Type "A" buffer along the west property line.
The concerns relate to portions of the recommended buffer between I- 95 and a
proposed on-site retention pond and the portion of the Type "A" buffer that would
be located under the electrical tie lines which are proposed to run across I- 95
connecting the plant to the 230KV transmission lines .
For the buffer area between I- 95 and the retention area the applicant is concerned
that the minimum width of 30' necessary to create a Type "A" buffer may not be
available. Based on this concern, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended that the buffer be reduced to a Type "B " buffer which can be achieved
in a 20' width . In staff' s opinion, the applicant should be made to preserve and
provide the minimum quantity of landscape material for a- Type "A" buffer ( 12
canopy trees, 6 understory trees , and 30 shrubs per 100'), but be allowed a reduced
width, of no less than 20' ; if necessary . Such buffer details can be finalized during
the major site plan review and approval process .
The other area of concern that the applicant expressed at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting was the location of the recommended west buffer and
corresponding plant material to be located under the tie lines that connect the plant
to the 230 KV lines on the westside of 1-95 . The area where the tie lines cross could
create a wide window to the site if no buffering is required . Therefore , to ensure

visual screening and feasible power plant operation, the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended that a Type "A" buffer be required for this area, but the
applicant be allowed to use landscape material that may have a lower mature height,
which will allow an adequate vertical clearance beneath the overhead tie lines . Staff
supports this recommendation and landscape material selection allowance. Detailed
material specifications can be finalized during the major site plan review and
approval process. The applicant can provide the Planning and Zoning Commission
a detailed landscape design at the time of major site plan.
Also, it should be noted that the proposed power plant will have a lower profile than
the City of Vero Beach Power Plant. The lower profile will make the proposed plant
less visually obtrusive and easier to screen than a conventional power plant. For
example, according to city officials the tallest structures at the City of Vero Beach
Power Plant are the exhaust stacks which are 250 ' tall . The tallest structures
proposed at the Calpine Plant are the four stacks at 142 ' tall . The other main
difference in appearance between the two facilities is that the City of Vero Beach has
enclosed all of its generators and equipment, while the Calpine equipment will not
be enclosed. The City of Vero Beach building is approximately 65 ' in overall height.
By not enclosing the generators and other equipment, Calpine will reduce the mass
of the proposed facility. The size of the other equipment, such as the cooling towers ,
will be similar to those at the City Power Plant. The site plan graphics provided by
the applicant for the staff report list the equipment type, height and dimensions
( attachment #3 ) .
Air Quality : Emissions from the plant will be monitored by the Department of
Environmental Protection (DEP) . The applicant has provided preliminary estimated
plant performance and emissions data which have been routed to the Department of
Health for its review and comment . The DEP has indicated that the proposed 711
emissions are in line with the allowable emissions . The applicant has indicated that
the plant will use the best available technology to limit emissions .
19. Locational Criteria : Based on discussions with the applicant. the main locational criterion
for the plant is convenient access to the Florida Power Grid, a component of which is the 230
KV transmission lines running west of I- 95 . This is essential for the plant to export power
to its wholesale customers . The plant is sited near these lines , and will connect to them via
overhead tie lines .
Another important locational criterion for the applicant is access to a supply of natural gas
necessary to fuel the plant . Currently , there is an existing gas transmission line which nuns
west of I- 95 and can provide fuel ; however, the applicant has indicated that its primary
choice will be to obtain natural gas from Gulfstream Natural Gas Systems . Gulfstream is in
the process of constructing a new gas line which will connect to the site from the south, just
west of I- 95 .
Another locational criterion is the availability of non-potable water for the plant ' s operating
process . Water is a resource that the plant needs to create steam and cool the plant. The
applicant is working with the County and the Indian River Farms Water Control District to
use surface water and other water sources for the plant ' s non- potable water needs . Possible
water sources could include treated effluent, diluted brine water from the reverse osmosis
plant and stormwater from the Indian River Farms Water Control District. The water will

20. Power Plant Approval Process :
• Local Process : The applicant is seeking conceptual site plan and special exception
use approval from the Board of County Commissioners . If approved by the Bord,
the applicant will then need to obtain major site plan approval .
• State Process : The approval for the power plant at the State Level is controlled by
the Power Plant Siting Act (PPSA), which is covered in Chapter 403 of the Florida
Statutes . The process requires two hearings b

b . The paving of 74th shall be complete and acceptable to the Public Works
Director.
Planning Director Stan Boling stated that the applicant is also in the process of
applying for a State permit with the Public Service Commission .
Commissioner Stanbridge inquired about the natural gas line , and Director Boling
responded that Gulfstream is the public provider and has lines across the state in several sites
west of I - 95 .
Chairman Ginn then questioned why no buffer is being required on the east side , and
Director Boling responded that there is a potential for development to the east of one unit per
}
5 acres . There is a canal along the east side and most of the facilities in the project on the
east side are parking .
Director Boling then noted that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended
a Type "B ” buffer on the east side of the property while staff recommends a Type "A "
buffer .

Attorney Bruce Barkett, 756 Beachland Boulevard , representing the applicant,
introduced Jack Doolittle , CEO of Environmental Consulting and Technologies ; David Dee ,
the attorney involved in the state application process ; and Tim Eves , the Director of Calpine .
He stated that the property cannot support a Type "A " buffer on the east side and still leave
the wetlands . Also , there will be a 30 - foot easement with 10 feet reserved for landscaping .
He introduced into the record the applicant ' s original application , supporting documentation,
and staff' s report (ALL DOCUMENTATION IS ON FILE WITH THE BACKUP FOR
TODAY ' S MEETING IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD ) .
Attorney Barkett then emphasized that the project is compatible with the area and will
have no adverse impact . There will be no large demand on water, sewer, or roads . There
is a suitable water source available for the project to tap into which will cut down on the
excess amount of water being dumped into the Lagoon . They will be providing a public
service in that respect . The project will have no below- ground cables , will provide proper
disposal of waste , and will have zero discharge facilities . Waste product will be reduced to
a solid and taken to the Landfill .
Tim Eves , Director of Calpine , explained that this will be a combined cycle plant,
using 7 . 5 million gallons of water per day . There will be no fuels stored on the site and the
cooling water will be obtained from canals and Indian River Fan-ns Water Control District .
The plant will cost $ 500 , 000 , 000 to construct and the application was submitted last October
to the State . They hope to be in operation by late summer of 2004 .
Commissioner Adams expressed her concern about the noise factor, and Mr . Eves
stated that Elton Ray of Hestler & Associates will address that subject .
Commissioner Macht questioned whether it would be possible to recondense the
cooling water emissions and re - use them .

Ted Baldwin explained that the stacks will have some water vapor but it is not
economically feasible to recover that water without a refrigeration system .
Jack Doolittle, CEO , Environmental Consulting and Technology , Gainesville
Florida, noted that their specialty area is electric power plants . They were the project
manager for the Blue Heron project . He stated that the site certification application
comprises 4 volumes , for the local , state and federal applications (CLERK ' S NOTE : SITE
CERTIFICATION VOLUMES ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE
BOARD ) . Some of the requirements they must meet have to do with water use , ecology ,
noise , land use , and traffic . They have received a draft permit from DEP for air quality and
have met the state and federal requirements . On this site , there is forested wetlands to the
north, marsh on the south , and on the east side Indian River Farms Water Control District
has a 100 ' right - of- way for a canal with existing vegetation . There is also a 30 ' right - of- way
for 74 `" Avenue and then another 30 ' easement for utilities .
Chairman Ginn felt that because the project is so close to I - 95 , the noise level would
not be much of an issue .
Commissioner Adams believed the noise level would be an issue if it is a continual
drone which is different from traffic noise .
Elton Ray of Hestler & Associates commented that they are responsible for the noise
level control . There are 85 significant sources of noise , each of which in all applications
meets the county noise ordinance requirements . They also used the St . Lucie County
residential requirements so the noise levels will meet requirements of both St . Lucie and
Indian River County .

Commissioner Adams wanted to make sure that not only are the codes met but also
that the noise is not offensive or agitating to the ear .
Mr. Ray noted that the sound level is not much higher than highway noise . Because
it is a combined cycle plant it is typically much quieter than other types . However, he did
agree that the house to the north, because of its proximity to the plant, will have a significant
increase in noise .
After general discussion involving the noise levels and vibrations , Attorney Barkett
asked Mr . Ray whether they have ever gone back after a plant was built and compared after-
the - fact measurements .
Mr . Ray responded that they are frequently required to verify plant performance and
they have had great success in meeting the contract requirements .
David Dee , Environmental Attorney , Landers and Parsons , Tallahassee , stated that
he has worked in environmental law for 22 years and has done a lot of work on power plants .
This project uses the same environmental standards as would be used in any other project
and the review process has been coordinated with all regulatory agencies , such as : DEP , US
EPA, SJRWMD , Fish & Wildlife , Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council , DCA , DOT,
and DOS . They have held 2 formal administrative hearings in Indian River County and the
project will ultimately be presented to the Governor and the Cabinet . The Public Service
r .
Commission also looks at the need for such a facility .
Attorney Barkett noted that the Board has already adopted the standards and is merely
applying the rules today . They have worked closely with nearby residents .
r
The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in
this matter .

Leona Valente of Spanish Lakes , a St . Lucie County community, expressed her
concern that her community has only I access road at the south end of the community . Their
emergency exit is an unpaved road which becomes impassable in inclement weather . Their
concern is that if a catastrophic situation occurs at Calpine and they have to evacuate in a
hurry , it will be impossible for those at the northern end of the project . She questioned
whether any thought has been given to a road on the north or south side of the county line
running parallel to Johnson Road which would lead away from the plant .
Commissioner Adams believed the road issue had been addressed by the St . Lucie
County Commissioners .
Brian Heady wanted the Board to ask the applicant how many jobs would be
available for local residents and what the salary would be for each of those jobs .
Dennis Murphy , Interim Development Director for St . Lucie County , stated that
numerous discussions have taken place relative to their concerns about the project .
Commissioner Adams questioned whether they addressed the road situation , and Mr .
Murphy responded that when Spanish Lakes was originally approved they only had one way
in . The County required at that time that an emergency access be provided and that was
done .
Rudy Turco , Spanish Lakes resident , felt that they are entitled to an emergency exit
and asked Mr . Murphy to follow through .
Gene Dugent, Spanish Lakes resident , stated that the Spanish Lakes community paid
Indian River County $ 32 . 118 for impact fees at one time and then later paid another $ 5 , 512

impact fee . He realized that some of this is not Indian River County ' s concern but
questioned what they got for those impact fees .
Director Keating responded that those fees were agreed to by the developer and the
fees went into the impact fee fund to pay for capacity for using Indian River County roads .
Ms . Valente felt it is the responsibility of the Indian River County Board to look at
their needs when they approve a site plan that affects them .
Brian Bogart of Ocean Spray spoke in favor of the project and noted that more and
more housing developments are coming into the county . He would like to see their area stay
industrial and he felt this is a great location for this particular industry . This will be a plant
using state- of-the - art technology and will not be as great a risk for complaints as the old Vero
Beach plant . He urged the Board to approve the project in hopes of attracting more industry
to the area .
Bob Johnson totally supported Commissioner Adams ' comments regarding the noise
issue .
Richard Martin , 859 Island Club Square , questioned the height of the cooling
towers , the noise levels and the evaporation rate . He wanted to know if there would be a
possibility of fog on I - 95 .

Ben Worsh , Environmental Manager of Calpine , stated that their entire use of water
will eventually be evaporated . There will be zero liquid and 7 . 5 million gallons is their

maximum use limit . The water will be recycled over 20 times and then eventually
evaporated through the towers . A fogging analysis was done and there is no significant risk
for I - 95 . The mechanical draft cooling towers are fan driven and are about 50 ' in height .
There are 2 banks of these towers on the north and the south side of the project, about 9
towers .
Chairman Ginn wanted to see the noise emissions meet residential requirements , and
Director Keating noted that because the property to the north is zoned agricultural , the
requirements are that they meet the agricultural requirements .
Mr . Murphy noted - that the St . Lucie County noise regulations are pretty much the
same as the Indian River County regulations .
Brian Heady commented that there had been no response to his question regarding
jobs , and Chairman Ginn responded that the presentation had included information regarding
the jobs .
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Tippin,
SECONDED by Commissioner Macht , to approve
staff, s recommendation .
Commissioner Macht noted that this project will bring an added economic benefit to
the County with approximately 30 jobs for local residents .
Commissioner Stanbridge commented that Calpine has worked cooperatively with the
County for over 3 years on this project .

Commissioner Adams noted that she had originally thought it was a wonderful idea
but she is disappointed with the noise statistics and will not be able to support the project .
The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard in this matter . There being
none , the Chairman closed the public hearing .
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED THE QUESTION and
the Motion passed by a 4 - 1 vote ( Commissioner
Adams opposed ) to approve the conceptual site plan
and the special exception use with the following
conditions : ( 1 ) that the applicant shall submit a
major site plan that provides a Type "A ” buffer on
the north , south and west sides of the subject
property and a Type " C " buffer on the east side of
the subject property and sufficient internal landscape
and tree preservation to screen the plant from public
view . The buffer between I - 95 and the proposed
retention area may be reduced to a 20 ' width if
necessary, with the same planting density as a 30 '
wide Type "A " buffer . The buffer segment to be

On June 12 , 2001 , the Board authorized Siver Insurance Consultants to prepare a request
for proposals for property and casualty insurance coverages as well as third party claims
administration services for the fiscal year beginning October 1 , 2001 . Five responses
were received , and that task has been completed . The following cover letter and analysis
from Kathy Gordon , ARM , AAI , presents their recommendations , and staff concurs with the
consultant .
Staff recommends that the Board accept Siver Insurance Consultants ' analysis and
authorize staff to implement their recommendations .
George Erickson , Sivers Insurance , stated that they have been operating from St .
Petersburg since 1970 and receive no compensation from any entities in the insurance
business . There has been a substantial increase in the County ' s insurance costs mainly due
to the growth in County population , the tax revenue base , property values and payrolls . Also
the insurance market has become extremely tight and the costs have been skyrocketing . Mr .
Erickson then read their recommendation into the record as follows :

Dear Ms. Jordan .-
At
ordan :At the request of Indian River County, Florida (the County), a Request for
Proposals (RFP) for Various Property and Casualty Insurance Coverages was r
prepared and distributed in July 2001 , for coverage effective October 1 , 2001 .
The RFP and addenda providing additional requested information were
distributed to a number of agents/brokers and service providers. A total of five
proposals were received .
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend that the County accept the following .
• Package and Crime proposals from Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. (Gallagher) for
the proposed premum amount of $550, 599 . Coverages included in the
recommended package include .
Real and Personal Property
Business Interraption and Extra Expense
Mobile Equipment and Miscellaneous Property
Electronic Data Processing
Crime
General Liability
Automobile Liability and Physical Damage
Public Officials with Employment Practices liability
Workers ' Compensation and Employers Liability
• Boiler & Machinery coverage proposal from Gallagher for the proposed
premium of S6 , 250 .
• Statutory Death benefits coverage from L . B . Bryan & Co . for the proposed
premium amount ofS5 , 931 .
■ Claims Administration services from 1LT Services (JLT) for the proposed
estimated annual fees of 547, 250.
Enclosed is a summary exhibit that compares the proposals received .
RATIONALE & COMMENTS
PACKAGE
The County received three proposals for package coverages . The proposal
received from McCreary Corporation (McCreary) included casualty and workers '
compensation coverages but did not include a proposal for property coverage.
The alternate proposals received from Gallagher and the Florida Municipal co
Insurance Trust (FMIT) did not include severable property coverage which uld
be combined with the McCreary proposal to make a viable option for the
County ' s consideration . For this reason, only the Gallagher and FMIT package
proposals were considered .
Although the incumbent , FMTT, submitted a less expensive packa ¢ e proposal with
preferred retentions for property and workers ' compensation, our
recommendation to the County, although a close call , is to purchase the Gallagher
package. Our recommendation is based upon improved wind coverage for
property and the stronger financial stability of the insurers participating in the
program . These factors are discussed ill more detail below.

the majority of County owned property is considerably inland from the �% rn ; le
While
restricted area , over 55 , 000, 000 in values arc uninsured due to this limitation .
The uninsured property locations include Property at a number of coastal narks,
two firehouse locations and the Sea Oaks Wastewater and Water plants . Due to
its location, this property is highly susceptible to windstorm damage
The Gallagher package •
a $ 100,C00 ro ° n the other hand, provides full wind caverege subject to
Property self- insured retention, which applies to all property losses.
This does represent an increased retention for non- wind related losses, however,
the impro% ed coveraee in the event ofcatast;ophic hurricane- type circumstances
is considered a key rationale of our recommendation .
hrsarer Financial Slublliry
The recommended Gallagher package includes coverage provided by the
following insurers ,-
Insurer
United National Insurance Company A" r Ratnre
Midwest Insurance Company } (Package) A+
ss Workers ' Compensation)
Westchester Surplus Lines Insurance Company (Excess property) A
Affiliated FM Insurance Company (Crime)
A +
The strong financial ratingsof the
consideratrecommended insurers were a primary
ion of Siver' s recommendation.
There is current concern regarding FAIT as their net worth has decreased
considerably in the last three years. F:VfIT's financial sraternent as of September
30, 1998 , reflected a net worth of $ 147 . 212, 949 and a small profit (about S2 5
million ) for the prior year ' s operations. Over the last two years, FAUT lost a total
of 585, 299 , 483 and , as of September 30, 2000, had a net worth of S41 , 983 466.
Based on annual written premiums of approximately $ 89 million with a surplus
of approximately $42 million FMIT is will conse.-vatively fundd . But for the
magnitude of the losses
concerned . in the two prior years, we would note
ebe particularly
We have been advised, and have no reason not to full
taken further, and as they describe ity believe, that FM[T has
, unprecedented , corrective actiThis
on.
corrective action has included the non - renewal of coverage for certain members,
the substantial withdrawal from the writing of health insurance (which was
particularly financially disastrous), and the increasing of premium levels. They
have also informally advised us that part of the loss last year was the result of
their charging actuarial firms and a resultant increase in the reserves for pr. or
losses

We have recently been provided an interim, unaudited statement for the period `
October 1 , 2000 through June 30, 2001 , which shows losses slowed during the
first 3 quarters to $2 , 449,469 . In correspondence dated August 15, 2001 , which
accompanied that interim statement, The Florida League of Cities ' Director of
Public Risk Services, Michael P . Madden, advised that " we feel confident
that by year end we will be in the black, absent any major catastrophe . "
Even with their recent further assurances that the problems have been correaed
and that they expect to be profitable this year, we continue to be concerned . We
should note that FL1IT is not assessable and, if they do become insolvent, the risk
to the County would be any unpaid claims.
Cost
The package proposals received represent a significant increase in costs for the
County . These increased costs are artributed to the limited insurers interested in
public entity business and the difficult insurance market in general . The
insurance costs of the proposed packages summarized as follows '
Coveraee IN T� pro _vola/ Gallazher Prorwsal
Package $ 760, 732 $8443782
Crime 5 7 S 5. 817
$76610549 5850, 599
Tirorkers ' Conrpenralion Retention
The current workers ' compensation self-insured retention is $ 150
Gallagher proposal ' , 000 and the
s is 5250, 000 . Over the past 5 years, the County has
experienced four claims anticipated to cost over $ 150, 000 . Based upon the
current valuation of these claims, the average annual amount of loss that would be
retained by the County is approximately $67, 000 .
Crime Coverages
The Gallagher package included crime coverage with limits of $ 100, 000. Current
employee dishonesty limits of coverage are 51 , 000, 000 for specified positions .
Gallagher also provided a separate, stand -alone crime proposal with a deductible
of $ 10, 000 and the higher requested limits. It is recommended that the County
negotiate with Gallagher to coordinate the crime coverages so that the higher
limits are purchased . Depending upon underv,riting considerations, acceptable
options would be to either exclude crime coverage from the package, for a
premium savings, and purchase the stand-alone crime coverage or amend the
stand-alone proposal, for a premium savings, to have a deductible of $ 100, 000 so
that coverage can be excess the package coverage .
Casualty .Aggregates
The Gallagher package proposal indicates that the Public Officials ' Errors and
Omissions Liability, Employment Related Practices, and Employee Benefits
Liability coverages include annual aggregates of $ 900 , 000 . This is a significant
difference in coverage between the current coverage, which has no aggregates for
these coverages, and the Gallagher proposal . It is recommended that the Count,
attempt to negotiate, perhaps at an additional premium, aggregates for these
coverages of at least three times the per claim limit.

BOILER & MACHINES
Two proposals were received for Boiler and Machinery coverage . The Gallagher
proposal, insured by C .N. A. Insurance Company is significantly less expensive
than the alternate proposal received from L . B . Bryan & Co . and is recommended .
STATUTORY DEATH BENEFITS
Only one proposal was received from L . B . Bryan & Co . and AIG Life Insurance
Company for Statutory Death Benefits. This is the incumbent program and is
recommended . The proposal includes an option for a three year policy, paid in
three annual installments of 55 , 931 . This is recommended .
CLAIMS ADMINISTRATIONN SERVICE
Three proposals were received for claims administration services, JLT Insurance
Services, Johns Eastern , and McCreary. The incumbent administrator, JLT is
recommended, as their estimated fees are less expensive than the alternate
proposals received and the County is generally satisfied with the service they have
received over the last ten years. Additionally, JLT included the most favorable
treatment of continuing administration of existing claims . Based upon current
counts of open claims, the JLT proposal saves the County approximately 525 , 000 s
in administration fees.
The JLT proposal was not submitted on the proposal forms included in the RFP . ;
However, the information that was provided was sufficient to enable us to
determine that their proposal was the most cost effective received . After we
reported that the forms Were not originally submitted , the matter was referred to
the County Attorney who , we understand advised the County that the failure to
submit the specific forms was a tec;tnicality, which could be waived , Based upon
this advice, the County requested, and JLT provided , the appropriate forms .
SLNIMARY AND CLOSING
We recommend that the County accept the Package, Crime, and Boiler &
Machinery proposals from Gallagher. We recommend the County accept
Statutory Death Benefits coverage from L. B . Bryan & Co. We recommend that
claims administratio"" services be continued with JLT .
We appreciate this opportunity to be of service to Indian River County Florida.
At your request, we plan to attend the meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners on September 18, 2001 . In the meantime, if you have any
questions, please let us know.
Very truly yours,

Chuck Wilde , Florida League of Cities , noted that he is not a commercial insurance
salesperson but rather a manager of self- insured trusts . He recommended that the Siver
recommendation not be accepted . He cited the increase in premium and the aggregate limits ,
stating that once those limits have been reached , there is no further coverage for the balance
of the year . He also noted that the League is over- reserved right now but is not in any
financial trouble .
Mr . Erickson gave a brief explanation of the aggregate limits and noted that all
County properties within '/ mile to 1 mile of the coast are subject to a 2 % deductible .
Commissioner Adams inquired about a windstorm pool , and Mr . Erickson replied that
they could check into that .
Assistant County Administrator Joe Baird stated that he had reviewed the
recommendations and felt that the wind coverage over the first '/2 mile from the coast was
a primary concern as the value of the fire stations exceed $ 5 , 000 , 000 . The County has gone
out for bids every 3 years and this year the premiums were so much higher that a decision
was reached to employ a consultant . He pointed out that the County had always received
good service from the League of Cities but their assets minus their liabilities are their net
worth . They have a net worth of only $ 43 , 000 , 000 at this time and we have buildings in this
County worth much more than that . The courthouse alone is worth $ 22 , 000 , 000 . Staff is
trying to ensure that the County is as safe as possible .
Commissioner Adams asked for a bottom line increase to the County on the
recommended package , and Mr . Baird responded that the increase would be $ 779 , 042 with
the League and $ 856 , 849 with the Gallagher bid .

Glenn Tobey , with Art Gallagher Insurance , noted that Gallagher paid out $ 142
billion for hurricane damage which would have bankrupted the League . 2 years ago the
League had a net worth of $ 147 , 000 , 000 and now they have only $ 42 , 000 ; 000 . Gallagher
insures 40 counties in Florida , 260 cities and 42 school districts .
Richard Terleeki , also with Art Gallagher , also cited the League ' s net worth of
$ 43 , 000 , 000 and explained that "within '/z mile of the coast " actually includes " navigable
waters " . In most storms the major damage has been from flood and not from wind .
MOTION WAS MADE, by Commissioner Adams ,
SECONDED by Commissioner Macht , that the
Board accept the League of Cities proposal .
Risk Manager Beth Jordan, noting that the County would move from a "pool " into an
"A -rated " company , recommended that the Board accept the Siver proposal .

REF . LETTER : Gregory W . Smith , Asst . Supt . Of Operations , to Jim Davis
dated August 29 , 2001
DATE : September 6 , 2001
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS }
The School District is requesting 50 % County funding participation
in the amount of $ 170 , 000 for the main school access roadway
located along the east property line of the proposed North County
Elementary School located east of Vero Lake Estates Subdivision
south of CR510 , and the CR510 left turn and deceleration lanes to
serve the subject access road . The School District is constructing
bus parking and fueling facility south of the school which would be
available for parking and fueling of County Road and Bridge
Division vehicles . In the past , the County Public Works Director
and School District Asst . Superintendent have discussed this use ,
but no cost estimate has been available until the above referenced
letter was received .
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS
The County Road and Bridge Division has a desire to park and fuel
10 vehicles ( mowers , graders , and trucks ) in the north county area .

In Addition , a spoil stockpile area is needed . The School District
is willing to accommodate the parking and fueling , however , the
cost of $ 170 , 000 is not budgeted and other County land may be
available for parking and spoil stockpile . "' he Road and Bridge
Division can meet fueling needs with our mobile fuel truck . The
alternatives are as follows :
ALTERNATIVE # 1
Approve the request . Allocate $ 170 , 000 from the Transportation
Fund 111 or Fund 109 Local Option Gas Tax .
ALTERNATIVE # 2
Deny the Request .
RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING
At this time , staff does not recommend expending $ 170 , 000 for this
purpose . Alternative No . 2 is recommended .
Public Works Director Jim Davis noted that staff is not supporting the request ,
although some level of funding might be in order since we do not have a County owned site
which meets our needs .

The developer of Waterford Lakes , a large residential development
located on a portion of the old Hibiscus Airport site south of 121h
Street and east of 16th Avenue , is constructing a left turn lane
along 12th Street near Vero Beach Elementary School . Since the new
south edge of 12th Street pavement will be very close to the 121h
Street Indian River Farms Water Control District sublateral canal ,
the Developer is proposing to install 1 , 300 lineal feet of 48 "
corrugated metal drainage culvert within the canal . The Public
Works Department has requested that this pipe be upgraded to
reinforced concrete pipe so that the future widening of 12th Street
can occur over the pipe to avoid acquiring expensive additional
right - of - way along the developed north side of 12th Street . The
cost difference between corrugated metal and reinforced concrete
pipe is $ 32 , 500 if the pipe is purchased under the County ' s current
annual contract for reinforced concrete pipe . The Developer will
reimburse the County for all costs over $ 32 , 500 .
In addition , the Developer will fund a complete resurfacing of 12th
Street in this area using the County ' s annual asphalt contract , as
well as new stripping and signage . The attached Developer ' s
Agreement provides for this work .
ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS
The entire 12th Street area near Vero Beach Elementary School will
benefit from the above work . The alternatives presented are as
follows :
