E
Shooting Range. He questioned why staff did not go out for bid comparisons on the shooting
range expansion project, despite some of the work being accomplished in-house.
Administrator Baird explained that staff was used for engineering and surveying services
at the shooting Range to save tax dollars, and was paid from the Transportation Fund utilizing
gas tax, which now needs to be reimbursed by using impact fees since the task is relating to a
Parks and Recreation project. He also disclosed that staff would be going out for bids for the
majority of the expansion project.
Discussion ensued between the Board and staff regarding the policy of whether to
accomplish projects in-house or obtain bids from an outside source.
County Attorney Alan S. Polackwich, Sr. said he had made sure that the services being
reimbursed were a proper expenditure of impact fees.
Charlie Wilson, 1017 6th Street, questioned why this item was listed under the Consent
Agenda, and whether the expansion project would be accomplished utilizing in-house staff or
outside privatization. He also voiced concerns over policy and the use of impact fee monies.
Administrator Baird explained why he chose to put this item under the Consent Agenda,
and reiterated that the remainder of the project would go out for bids.
Discussion continued regarding transparency, privatization, there being no change in
policy procedures, and why other options cannot be used to pay for staff costs.
Commissioner Davis suggested that in the future, staff estimates how much an in-house
project will cost to perform the scope of service, and before the work is completed, bring the
expenditure (with an allocation amount from a particular fund) to the Board for approval.

confirmed that the subject property and all adjacent properties are zoned as single family
residential, and not needed for access to adjacent lots. He also reported that staff from Public
Works and Utility Services had recommended that this right-of-way be abandoned, but wanted to
retain a drainage and utility easement over the entire right -of way area, should it be required for
future utility drainage purposes.
Director Boling reviewed the survey and confirmed for the Board that there was no
remnant piece of County right-of-way because it had already been abandoned.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing. There being no speakers, the Chairman closed
the Public Hearing.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED by

2012-2013
Management and Budget Director Jason Brown reported that staff was anticipating a 5%
to 6% reduction in tax rolls for next year's budget, and recommended a reduction in the
allocation to the Children's Services fund, in order to avoid increasing the General Fund millage
rate. The 5% reduction for Children's Services agencies would represent a decrease of $32,836
from the current fiscal year allocation of $656,726.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan recalled earlier comments regarding the net increase to the
General Fund and the County finishing the 2010-2011 fiscal year in a stronger financial position
than the previous year, and therefore opposed the decrease in allocation for Children's Services
agencies.
March 20, 2012 13
BK 142 PG 241'
MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to not reduce the
funding level for Children's Service agencies, and to keep
the funding at last year's allocation.
Commissioner Solari supported the 5% reduction; voiced opposition to some of the
proposals of funding under the Children's Services Advisory Committee's funding focus areas of
need (listed on page 112 of the Agenda Packet); and suggested that in keeping the budget level,
Youth Guidance should be moved back under Children's Services and put on a 3 -year track to
wean it from the County.
Discussion and debate ensued regarding the funding of programs and charities,
government involvement, the effectiveness of the program, charity involvement, and budget
reductions.
Administrator Baird provided history and explained why allocation reductions were
recommended. He conveyed that in April, all Constitutionals and departments will be asked to
reduce their budgets by 3%.
Renee Renzi, Waverly Place, pointed out that the Board had recently approved a multi-
million dollar improvement project for the shooting range expansion project, and therefore
wondered why Children's Services were being cut 5% when their expenditures are far below $1
million.
Administrator Baird reported that the Sheriff's project had been on the Long Term
Master Plan for over 20 years, and only if the funding is available does the project move
forward He clarified that only the funds for the evidence room expansion had been committed,
and that the funds would come from Optional Sales Tax or Impact Fees, not Ad Valorem.

Chairman Wheeler, addressing Ms. Renzi's question, relayed that Children's Services,
even after the 5% reduction, would be receiving $623,890.
Commissioner Flescher sought and received details as to why 3% was not targeted for
Children's Services.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, by a 2-3 vote
(Commissioners Davis, Solari and Wheeler opposed), the
MOTION FAILED.
ON MOTION by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by
Chairman Wheeler, by a 3-2 vote (Commissioners
Flescher and O'Bryan opposed), the Board approved a 5%
reduction in funding for Children's Service agencies from
$656,726 during the current fiscal year to $623,890 for
fiscal year 2012-2013, and for staff to make notification to
all involved that there may be up to a 5% cut.

12.1.1. SECTOR 3 BEACH RESTORATION PROJECT UPDATE
County Coastal Engineer James Gray, using a PowerPoint presentation (on file), provided
the Board with an update on Phase 2b of the Sector 3 Beach Restoration Project. He conveyed
that as of March 16, 2012, Ranger Construction Industries, Inc. (Ranger) had placed
approximately 100,000 cubic yards (cy) of the required 111,000 cy of sand that was needed to
fill the full Phase 2b design template. Due to the lack of available beach sand, Ranger proposed
eliminating the dune portion of the profile and just constructing the lower portion of the berm
March 20, 2012 15
BK 142 PG 24:
and beach section He said full construction would be better for the project, but staff had worked
with Ranger and Coastal Technology Corporation, Inc. (Coastal Tech) to ensure that the sand
volume deviation would remain in compliance with the permits and would not negatively impact
the project. He reported that the total volume for the project was 586,000 cy, and staff's estimate
based on the reduction of 11,000 cy totaled about 575,000 cy, which represents a little over 2%
reduction in the overall volume.
Discussion ensued regarding weight tickets, the production of sand, the closure of the
mine, contract quantities, and the loss in sand quantity.
Patrick Flynn, Ranger Construction Industries, Inc , informed the Board that prior to
starting the 2b Phase, the mine was going to produce 108,000 cy of material, yet processed about
130,000 cy of sand, and even though some material is always lost during the processing stage,
the conversion from tons to cubic yards shows that they mined close to 111,000 cy.
Public Works Director Chris Mora reiterated that this is not a loss to the County because
Ranger is paid by "placed volume" within the design template, and if there is a loss, for reasons
of conversion non -compatibility, loss, or cost, the County will not pay for the sand until it is
placed on the beach and surveyed in place.
Attorney Polackwich asked the Board to provide direction to staff since the contract
stated that Ranger would provide 586,000 cy to fill the profile, yet only supplied 575,000 cy.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari to direct
staff to bring a change order to the next Board of County
Commission meeting. MOTION DIED for lack of a
Second.

12.1.2 SOUTH COUNTY REGIONAL PARK INTERGENERATIONAL RECREATION
FACILITY APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT WITHBORRELLI & PARTNERS, INC.
TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING
SERVICES RFQ No. 2012024 -IRC PRO.rECTNo. 1135
Director Mora recapped the memorandum dated March 12, 2012, providing description,
conditions, and funding information regarding the proposed agreement with Borrelli and
Partners, Inc. (Borrelli), to provide design and construction related services for a proposed
intergenerational recreation facility that would be built at the South County Regional Park.
MOTION was made by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to approve
staff's recommendation.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan compared this project with the shooting range expansion project,
and the appropriateness of using staff and/or hiring a consultant.
Commissioner Davis also compared this project with the shooting range expansion
project, emphasizing that this project is being approved before applying employee expenditures.
Charlie Wilson sought and received information regarding the appropriate uses for sales
tax and the amount of optional sales tax being used for this project. He voiced concern over
spending monies from the Optional Sales Tax, and suggested the County, instead of building the
BK I42 PG 245

gym, use the money to purchase a future site for a West County Park. He felt that moving
forward would be a rush to judgment, and recommended the Board table this item until staff can
review other alternatives.
Administrator Baird responded to Mr. Wilson's concerns and suggestions, and reported
that this facility has been on the Agenda since 2005.
Tim Zorc, 7658 South Polo Grounds Lane, sought and received details pertaining to the
Request for Qualifications (RFQ) process, and the submitted proposal from Borrelli.
Attorney Polackwich stated that the County has no flexibility and is fully bound by the
Competitive Consultant Negotiation Act, which states that the price cannot be obtained until
after the qualification process is complete.
Discussion ensued regarding proposals, negotiations, the competitive bid process, the
motivation in moving the project forward, and the potential for traffic impact fee refunds.
Ashley Judfield, 1695 20th Avenue SW, believed the money should be spent on other
projects, and requested that staff concentrate on safety concerns in the South County area before
building the proposed facility.
Assistant County Administrator Michael Zito explained the "synergy between
generations" concept of the intergenerational recreation facility.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
Motion carried. The Board unanimously approved the
proposed agreement with Borrelli and Partners, Inc., in the
amount of $613,232.03, and authorized the Chairman to
execute same, as recommended in the memorandum of

MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to approve
staff's recommendation.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan made clear that the County is continuously moving forward with
projects to help improve the quality of water in the Indian River Lagoon, and that instead of
passing unnecessary and unenforceable ordinances, the Board is taking positive measurable
actions to remove harmful chemicals from the water and putting cleaner water back into the
lagoon.
Commissioner Solari added that in 2011, over 12,000 pounds of nitrogen and over 3,000
pounds of phosphorus were removed from the lagoon.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
Motion carried. The Board unanimously approved Work
Order No. 1 with Kimley Horn and Associates, Inc.
(KHA) in the amount of $195,700.00, found that the
project is needed to accommodate new growth in the
County, found that new growth will proportionately

14.A.1. COMMISSIONER ASSISTANT POSITION
Chairman Wheeler announced that Darcy Vasilas, who had been his assistant, had
relocated to North Carolina. He said he had asked Human Resources Director James Sexton to
analyze the potential of filling the Commissioner Assistant position with a full-time, part-time, or
temporary employee through an agency, and elaborated why it would be most practical to fill it
with a part-time employee. He revealed that the vacancy had been offered as a part-time position
to Reta Smith, outlined her qualifications, and said that by not hiring a full-time employee, plus
not hiring a replacement for Commissioner Solari's assistant position last year, there would be a
reduction of approximately $85,000, which is over 10% of the Board's budget.
The BOARD's CONSENSUS was to fill the position with
part-time employee Reta Smith.
Discussion ensued among the Commissioners regarding their employee reductions over
the past few years.
Chairman Wheeler thereafter announced that he would not be seeking reelection. He said
he would withdraw from the race, and that the District 3 seat will now be open for those wishing
to file. He expressed that it had been a privilege and an honor to work with fellow Board
members and staff, and stressed that Indian River County is a cut above in many areas. He also
thanked the public for their trust, and for placing confidence and faith in him over the past 20+
years.
