February 4, 2014 16
Vice Chairman Davis questioned whether it would be beneficial to move surplus funds
into an investment with a higher yield.
Clerk of Circuit Court and Comptroller Jeffrey R. Smith said that he is statutorily
required to invest the County's surplus funds, revealed they are 96% secure, and reminded the
Commissioners that with more security comes less return. He explained: (1) the County's
investment policy; (2) why his staff recently moved $43,000,000 into fully collateralized money
market accounts and $3,000,000 into a 2 -year CD; (3) why it is important to deal with nothing
less than a 5 -star bank with a Qualified Public Depository (QPD)• and (5) the three principals of
investing government funds (safety, liquidity, and return), which has been used by staff to
increase rates.
There was a brief discussion pertaining to the portfolio ladder, reviewing and bidding the
banking contract, and the benefits of using Treasuries versus Certificate of Deposits.
Administrator Baird emphasized that the Comptroller and his staff have done an excellent
Job with the County's investments over the years.
Chairman O'Bryan felt it is a win-win situation to pay off any bond, reduce the outflow,
and receive higher returns.

1413.1. ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLY
Commissioner Solari recapped his memorandum dated January 28, 2014, regarding an
alternative water supply. He requested the Board consider a feasibility study that would develop
a fresh surface water system complete with a reservoir system, and to also request that St. John's
River Water Management District (SJRWMD) provide a portion of the funding.
Discussion ensued between staff and the Commissioners as they sought and received
additional information regarding the surface water project; future permitted capacity; and the
demand loads of projected growth percentages.
Director of Utility Services Vincent Burke explained a recent capacity analysis study that
staff performed to examine our existing demands our built -out capacity, and the constraints that
the SJRWMD has put on the County. He stated that the County has a 20 -year consumptive use
permit which expires in 2030 plateaus in 2021 with the allowable withdrawal that the District
permits, and at that time the demands will be re -analyzed.
Further discussion ensued among the Board regarding the quantity and quality of water
going into the Lagoon, the alternative water supply, revisiting the 2007 Alternative Water Supply
Master Plan study, alternatives to supply water, permitted capacity, and the consumptive use
permit
February 4, 2014 18
Robert Adair 7060 33`d Street, member of the Agriculture Advisory Committee and
Supervisor for the Soil and Water Conservation District, supported Commissioner Solari's
recommendation. He pointed out concerns with the County's use of the Floridan Aquifer, the
1,500 permitted artesian wells that are 60+ years old and leaking and the agricultural use of
water. He believed that re -instituting well plugging would save the silent leak into the surface
aquifer. Mr. Adair encouraged Commissioner support, lobbying to let the District know that
funds are needed for the well plugging program, and a study to identify leaking wells.
Discussion continued regarding the repair and plugging of artesian wells, the expense of
plugging them, possible cost sharing, and the results of not plugging them.
Debra Ecker, 550 Riomar Drive, on behalf of the Indian River Neighborhood
Association, supported Commissioner Solari's proposal. She used a graph to show SJRWMD's
most recent report of Indian River County's projected water demands through the year 2035, and
stated that to prepare for this County's anticipated population increase, there should be no delay
in the County developing a plan for an alternative water resource.
Lex Kromhout, Vero Beach, supported Commissioner Solari's proposal, commended
him for moving this forward, and voiced concerns over well fields and surface reservoirs
Althea McKenzie, sought and received clarification regarding potable water, water used
for agriculture, and capturing storm water. She spoke about the current and future needs of the
County, and encouraged the Board to move forward with a reservoir type system.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to direct staff to:
(1) review the conclusions of the June 2007 Alternative
Water Supply Master Plan; (2) enter into dialogue with the
St. John's River Water Management District to obtain
February 4, 2014 19
their expertise; and (3) design a long-term surface water
supply for all the County's future water needs
Director Burke asked that the Board take a look at the total amount of water
consumption.
Administrator Baird suggested looking at utility needs and alternatives, partnering with
SJRWMD to look at other water needs in this district and see if they are willing to fund or
match -fund through utilities or the general fund, through a phased approach. He also suggested
inviting SJRWMD to give a presentation on this subject as well as the artesian well problems,
and to start the feasibility study at the same time.
MOTION WAS AMENDED by Commissioner Solari
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher to also direct
staff to: (1) analyze the total water consumption; and (2)
request funding from St. John's River Water Management
District.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
Motion carried unanimously. The Board directed staff to:
(1) review the conclusions of the June 2007 Alternate
Water Supply Master Plan; (2) enter into dialogue with the
St. John's River Water Management District to obtain
their expertise; (3) design a long-term surface water
supply for all the County's future water needs; (4) analyze
the total water consumption; and (5) request funding from
the St. John's River Water Management District.

14.112. UNITED STATES PRESCRIPTION DISCOUNTS CARD
Commissioner Solari discussed the United States Prescription Discount card, believing
there to be little benefit to residents, and feeling the purpose of the card seems to be collecting
personal information, which they sell to third parties He warned citizens to be careful with
things that are received in the mail that look really good, but may not be beneficial.
Chairman O'Bryan stressed that the Indian River County Drug Discount card is offered
through the National Association of Counties, has been very successful and beneficial to the
residents over the past few years, and is available for citizens who are uninsured or underinsured.
