8.1. REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR AMENDMENTS TO
CODE OF INDL4N RIVER COUNTY CHAPTER 401 ADOPTING THE 2010
FLORIDA BUILDING CODE
Commissioner Solari was concerned about the financial impacts of three components of
the 2010 Florida Building Code, particularly the New Energy Conservation Code which might
significantly increase heating or cooling upgrades/repairs. He wanted to get an idea of what
costs might be associated with the new code amendments.
Community Development Director Robert Keating noted that the County is required to
adopt the new codes. He clarified that today staff was solely seeking authorization to advertise
for a public hearing to consider adoption of the revised Florida Building Code. He conveyed
that the current code revisions are only available online, and staff would be returning with
additional information as to the impacts of the updated code.
February 7, 2012 7
BK !42 PG OlE
Attorney Polackwich elaborated on his recommendation for the Board to adopt the
revised Florida Building Code.
Chairman Wheeler wondered whether any of the cost increases could be offset by any of
the code provisions.
Commissioner Davis asked that the costs of inspection and permitting fees be maintained
and not increased.
Director Keating responded that it was possible that the increases in wind speed
requirements might result in lower insurance costs. He also advised that some of the permitting
fees would be reduced.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Commissioner Davis, to not move
forward until further information is available on the
impacts of the amendments contained within the 2010
Florida Building Code.
Director Keating responding to Commissioner Davis's query, reported that the new code
goes into effect on March 15, 2012.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 2-2
vote (Commissioners O'Bryan and Wheeler opposed;
Commissioner Flescher absent), the Motion was tied.
MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Chairman Wheeler, to direct staff to
advertise for a public hearing to consider adoption of the
revised 2010 Florida Building Code.
February 7, 2012 8
BK 142P6019
Chairman Wheeler and Vice Chairman O'Bryan shared Commissioner Solari's concerns,
but felt that the County was obligated to comply with the State mandate.
Commissioner Solari disagreed, declaring that the County should take a stand and inform
the State of its objections.
MOTION WAS AMENDED by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Chairman Wheeler, to approve the
transmittal of a letter to the Florida Legislature outlining
the County's concerns relative to the 2010 Florida
Building Code.
Further discussion ensued regarding the necessity for the County to adopt the 2010
Florida Building Code. Attorney Polackwich advised that the code would apply whether or not it
is adopted by the County. He also stressed that County Code could not be used as an
enforcement tool without incorporating into it the code revisions.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 3-1
vote (Commissioner Solari opposed; Commissioner
Flescher absent), the Motion carried. The Board: (1)
directed staff to advertise for a public hearing to consider
adoption of the revised 2010 Florida Building Code; and
(2) approved the transmittal of a letter to the Florida
Legislature outlining the County's concerns relative to the
2010 Florida Building Code.

12.A.1. CONSIDERATION OF EXTENDING THE TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF
THREE IMPACT FEES
Community Development Director Robert Keating recalled the Board's adoption in
March 2009 of Ordinance 2009-003, temporarily suspending five impact fees (Emergency
Services Facilities, Correctional Facilities, Public Buildings, Law Enforcement, and Solid Waste
Facilities) and in March 2011 of Ordinance 2011-002, extending the suspension of three impact
fees (Public Buildings, Correctional Facilities, and Solid Waste Facilities) through March 31,
2012. , He said that although it is unclear whether the impact fee suspensions have stimulated
142 PG 023
February 7, 2012 12
economic development there are valid reasons for extending the temporary suspension,
including deterring further economic decline and enhancing the County's business friendly
image Director Keating thereafter provided staffs recommendation for the Board to advertise
for a public hearing to extend the temporary impact fee suspensions for Public Buildings,
Correctional Facilities, and Solid Waste Facilities from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2014.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Vice Chairman O'Bryan, to approve
staffs recommendation.
Commissioner Solari revealed he would not support the Motion as he believed that the
purpose for impact fees was to pay for development, not to regulate its advancement or decline.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 3-1
vote (Commissioner Solari opposed and Commissioner
Flescher absent), the Motion carried. The Board
authorized staff to advertise for a public hearing to extend
the current suspension of three impact fees (Public
Buildings, Correctional Facilities, and Solid Waste
Facilities) from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2014, as
recommended in the memorandum of January 31, 2012.
12.A2. CONSIDERATION OF URBAN SERVICE BOUNDARY BUFFER
Planning Director Stan Boling presented the request of the Indian River Neighborhood
Association (IRNA) for the Board to consider establishing buffer zones in agricultural areas
adjacent to but outside of the Urban Service Area (USA) boundary, in order to prohibit certain
conditional uses normally requiring special exception use approvals. He used a PowerPoint
presentation (not on file), to provide details and analysis regarding IRNA's proposal to prohibit
Lid sludge spreading; juice plants and packing houses; fruit spreading; correctional institutions;
IN 142 PG 024
February 7, 2012 13
major sports facilities; non-commercial off-road vehicle tracks; airstrips; and demolition debris
sites in the three suggested buffer areas (South, Central, and North County). He thereafter
conveyed staffs recommendation for the Board to direct staff to initiate the formal amendment
process to consider adoption of the proposed Urban Service Area boundary buffer.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan was concerned that the buffer area might result in a
concentration of all the special exception uses in the agricultural ("Ag") area not included in the
buffer. He was opposed to prohibiting the traditional agricultural uses of packing houses and
fruit spreading from the proposed buffer, but advocated seeking public input and more
information on IRNA's proposal.
Commissioner Solari felt that IRNA's proposal would push the USA further west and
increase business costs. He believed the proposal also increases the appeal of the 5 -acre
ranchettes outside the USA, and was concerned about the environmental impacts of the septic
tanks and wells on those properties.
Commissioner Davis raised concerns about the proposed prohibition on fruit spreading,
which he explained was a means of feeding cattle and keeping fruit spoils or excesses out of the
landfill.
Chairman Wheeler stated that the proposal has some good points, such as helping to
protect the 5 -acre ranchettes. He advocated moving forward and getting input from the public,
the Agricultural Advisory Committee (AAC), and the Planning & Zoning Commission (P & Z)
before making a decision.
The Chairman accepted input from the following individuals who all advocated going
forward with the public hearing process, with additional points of view as follows:
February 7, 2012 14
BK 142PG025
Amy Banov, Architect and Contractor, 6700 Carson Trail, affirmed her support for the
buffer zone concept, noting that there has been a substantial increase of residences in the
agricultural zoned areas.
Robert Inhoff, 5704 Riverboat Circle SW, representing the South County Preservation
Society, spoke to the importance of basing the Board s decision on what is best for all County
residents.
Brian Carman, IRNA, pointed out that the Board was being asked at this time to
approve the concept of the buffer area, not the individual components of the proposal.
Chuck Mechling, 5215 Tradewinds Drive, believed that the proposal might make it
difficult for certain firms to conduct business.
Jens Tripson, 2525 14th Street, cautioned the Board to be careful not to put in place any
regulations that would affect genuine agricultural practices. He advised that precise definitions
be included for uses that are bona fide agricultural practices and proposed to be prohibited.
BJ McClure, 395 Nieuport Drive, Aerodrome, voiced concerns about deficits in the
current system of special exception and admimstrative use permits. He also spoke of excessive
truck traffic being generated by INEOS New Planet BioEnergy, and stressed that protections
were needed for the residents of the Indian River Aerodrome and neighboring communities.
Robert Adair, Agricultural Advisory Committee, affirmed the importance of the
Agricultural Advisory Committee's involvement with the discussions on the proposal. He asked
that small farmers be allowed to maintain their agricultural practices and a decent lifestyle. Mr.
Adair also requested permission to show the County's Planning Department a publication about
maintaining viable agriculture in urban areas.
February 7, 2012 15
142 PG 026
MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Chairman Wheeler, to approve staff's
recommendation.
Commissioner Davis, Commissioner Liaison to the Agricultural Advisory Committee,
stated that a committee meeting will be scheduled as soon as possible to discuss the Urban
Service Boundary Buffer proposal.
Commissioner Solari expressed support for the public hearing process. However, he
reiterated concerns about promoting urban sprawl; negative impacts on business; and
environmental impacts from the septic tanks and wells on the 5 -acre ranchettes. He requested
that he participate in discussions on the latter, as information comes forward.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 4-0
vote (Commissioner Flescher absent), the Board directed
staff to obtain input from the Agricultural Advisory
Committee, conduct a public workshop, and initiate a
formal amendment of the Land Development Regulations
to implement the Urban Services Boundary Buffer concept
by changing the specific land use criteria for the following
eight use categories:
•
•
1

•
•
•
•

12. G.1. PARKS & RECREATION IMPACT FEE PROJECT TIMELINES
Director of Management and Budget Jason Brown recalled that after considering a
proposed ordinance concerning impact fee refunds at the January 17, 2012 County Commission
meeting, the Board asked staff to report on the status of various projects that have been funded
with Parks and Recreation Impact Fees. He provided background, time lines, and analysis on
the following five projects: (1) South County Park — Intergenerational Facility; (2) South County
Park — Multi -Purpose Fields; (3) Shooting Range — Sporting Clays Course; (4) Fairgrounds — RV
Parking, Electric, and Restroom Improvements; and (5) Oslo Boat Ramp Improvements.
Director Brown refuted the public perception that the County has rushed the projects in order to
expend the fees and avoid disbursing the refunds. He added that the projects were long -planned
improvements that were often delayed by funding constraints; concerns about operating
expenses; and permitting issues.
February 7, 2012 17
BK 142 PG 028
Charles Wilson, 1057 6th Avenue presented some comparisons of impact fee
expenditures over the last five years and the last twelve months to support his stance that the
County was quickly expending the impact fees to avoid dispensing the refunds.
•
County Administrator Joseph Baird responded that it takes time to accumulate the funds
for big projects, such as jail improvements, and stressed that the projects are needed for future
growth.
Director Brown explained why there were yearly variations in the impact fee dollars
expended for various capital projects, and affirmed that the County is using impact fees properly.
Assistant County Administrator Michael Zito noted that the impact fees for the South
County Park are not being used to correct an existing deficiency, but to address the expansion
and increased demand for the facility since the inception of the impact fee.

12.1. PUBLIC WORKS
1211 ASPHALT MILLINGS FOR LOCAL ROADS
Public Works Director Christopher Mora provided background and analysis on the
feasibility of instituting a petition paving program using asphalt millings on unpaved
neighborhood streets. He revealed that the County's first large-scale millings project at Blue
Cypress Lake Road was holding up well. He reported that the cost of a millings paving project
would be around $100,000 per mile, compared to approximately $850,000 per mile for a petition
paving project, with the cost split between the petitioners (75%) and the County (25%). He
noted that in a petition paving project, the residents are given five years to pay their assessment;
however, due to the uncertain longevity of the millings, staff recommended a two-year payback
14+2 PG 029
February 7, 2012 18
period for the petition millings projects. He thereafter proffered staff's recommendation for the
Board to offer a petition millings alternative to residents desiring to participate in the petition
paving program, with the assessment payoff period of two years.
Chairman Wheeler believed it might be a hardship to reduce the residents' payoff periods
from five to two years.
Commissioner Solari asked Director Mora to report back on the estimated costs for the
residents participating in the petition millings projects.
Commissioner Davis asked about the possibility of Vero Lake Estates applying some of
its Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) revenues towards a petition milling program.
Administrator Baird, with input from Director Mora, acknowledged that some of the
Vero Lake Estates roads needed to be improved, and explained the requirements for the
MSBU's. He stated that the County would explore the possibility of developing a plan with the
Vero Lake Estates Homeowners Association.
Alexander Introcaso, 6446 5th Street, Pine Tree Park, reported that the County's current
practice of grading the dirt roads in his neighborhood is not working, and asked the Board to
explore the petition millings alternative.
John Culp, 6245 7th Place, Pine Tree Park, discussed the problems with the grading
process, and spoke in support of the millings project.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Chairman Wheeler, to approve staff's
recommendation.
February 7, 2012 19
BK 142 PG 030
Vice Chairman O'Bryan mentioned that some unintended consequences of the millings
paving project might be complaints about the increase in the additional and higher speed traffic
that accompanies road improvements.
A brief discussion ensued wherein it was established that the petition paving projects
could be done road by road.
Chairman Wheeler discussed the importance of educating the residents on the pros and
potential cons of millings so they clearly understand what they are signing up for. He noted it
would be helpful for the County to have a record of that acknowledgement.
Susan Thomasson, 8275 105th Avenue, Vero Lake Estates, relayed that the residents of
Vero Lake Estates are anxious to have their roads improved. She suggested that Vero Lake
Estates residents have two avenues of funding: (1) apply a portion of the MSBU towards some
roads; and (2) provide residents with the option of participating in a petition millings program.
A brief discussion ensued between Ms. Thomasson and Administrator Baird regarding
the possibility of temporarily increasing the Vero Lake Estates MSBU in order to expedite the
road project.
Commissioner Davis stated he would contact Ms. Thomasson to discuss the situation at
Vero Lake Estates.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 4-0
vote (Commissioner Flescher absent), the Board: (1)
approved staff's analysis; (2) authorized staff to offer a
"petition millings" alternative to residents desiring to
participate in the petition paving program; and (3) directed
staff to return to the Board with further information on the
February 7, 2012 20
BK 142 PG 031
assessment payoff schedule and the anticipated average
costs to the residents.

13. COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS
13.A. RENEWAL OF LEASE WITH SCHOOL BOARD FOR ITS ADMINISTRATION
BUILDING
Deputy County Attorney William DeBraal reported that the School Board's lease for the
old County Administration Building is set to expire on February 29, 2012 (due to Leap Year),
and the School Board has approved the proposed lease extension commencing March 1, 2012.
He outlined the terms of the lease and pointed out two changes - the County would no longer
insure the building against fire or property damage or be responsible for building repairs,
including the roof; however, it would continue performing grounds maintenance.
Commissioner Solari questioned why the lease agreement indicates a commencement
date of March 5, 2012. Attorney DeBraal stated that the date would be corrected to March 1,
2012.
ON MOTION by Vice Chairman O'Bryan, SECONDED
by Commissioner Solari, by a 4-0 vote (Commissioner
Flescher absent), the Board approved and authorized the
Chairman to execute the Lease Agreement with the School
Board (with a renewal option for five (5) one (1) year

Commissioner Solari read a quote from John Dickinson (a 1767 Pennsylvania farmer), on
individual liberties and government taxation to reference the situation of ratepayers who reside in
the County, but receive water and sewer utilities from the City of Vero Beach (the City). He
thought it unjust that those citizens, such as South Barrier Island residents, have their utility taxes
go into the City s General Fund in order to keep City taxes low. He asked his fellow
Commissioners if they would support a one -precinct referendum for Precinct 512 to establish
whether the City's County customers would prefer to continue having their utility services
provided by the City of Vero Beach or by the County, subsequent to the 2016 expiration of their
Water and Sewer Franchise Agreement
ON MOTION by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by
Vice Chairman O'Bryan, by a 4-0 vote (Commissioner
Flescher absent), the Board authorized the County
Attorney to draft a one -precinct referendum question for

purpose of determining whether the residents of Precinct

Beach, would prefer to have their water, sewer, and
wastewater utility services provided by the City of Vero
Beach or Indian River County.
