documentation, and legal representation. He suggested that he meet with the Sheriff to see if law
enforcement can intervene.

14. COMNIISSIONER ITEMS
14.A. COMMISSIONER JOSEPH E. FLESCHER, CHAIRMAN
14.A.1. LAGOON PROJECT OF INTEREST
Chairman Flescher introduced an oyster reef concept that he believed would help
revitalize and purify the Indian River Lagoon, and asked Chip Swindell and Charlie Sembler to
present their proposal.
Chip Swindell, Ecotech Consultants, Inc., reviewed his slide presentation (on file),
proposing the creation of oyster reefs in the Lagoon to improve water quality and habitat for
marine life. He further spoke about design objectives and permit issues.
Charlie Sembler, 6945 49th Street, talked about the success of the oyster farming project
at Spoonbill Marsh, explained why oyster and shellfish farming is important, and suggested
creating an oyster pilot project in the Lagoon that would be relatively simplistic, cost effective,
and of industrial size, to get the desired results for cleaning the nutrients from the water.

r
A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the oyster rehabilitation project possible grants;
the collection of measurable data for historic purposes; the scope of the project; and working
with permitting agencies.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Chairman Flescher, to direct staff to
bring the three -task proposal back to the Board in August,
and include the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
results.
Discussion on the motion followed, and Administrator Baird informed the Board that he
would amend the budget for the estimated cost of $28,500.00 (plus permitting), and place this on
the next Agenda to give the Attorney enough time to produce the necessary document(s) and
meet with the appropriate people.
MOTION WAS AMENDED by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Chairman Flescher, to: (1) place this item
on the Board of County Commission Agenda for July 16,
2013; and direct staff to bring the three -task proposal back
to the Board and include the Total Maximum Daily Load
(TMDL) results.
Commissioner O'Bryan believed the research would take time, and suggested bringing
the testing results back separately. He recommended that staff start working on the permit
applications, then do an amendment after receiving the TMDL data.
Attorney Reingold asked for clarification on the motion.
Further discussion ensued.
July 9, 2013 16

14. C. COMMISSIONER PETER D. O'BRYAN
14. C.1. ACTION PLAN FOR THE INDIANRIVER LAGOON
Commissioner O'Bryan summarized his backup material (on file) regarding his
assumptions about the Indian River Lagoon, categorized as follows: (1) the things we know
now; (2) the things we do not know now; (3) what we can assume going forward (4) short term
strategies; (5) medium range strategies; and (6) long range strategies. He thereafter spoke about
specific action items that he wanted the Board to consider for implementing an Action Plan that
would save the Indian River Lagoon.
The Commissioners discussed the Board's leadership role; staff presenting the Board
with a feasibility study; and individual Board members duplicating Lagoon initiatives due to the
Sunshine Law restnctions that prevent them from being able to discuss issues outside the
meeting.
July 9, 2013 17
BK 144 PG 073
Administrator Baird told the Board that staff had met with Grand Harbor and their
engineers to discuss a project that would create a wetland area to treat stormwater; staff is
currently reviewing the proposal for a feasibility study; and a contract would be coming to the
Board in the near future.
Commissioner Zorc specified that the goal of the working groups that he has been
working with, is to create an action plan that would prioritize and create a database of who is
doing what, where, and when. He felt this would save money and alleviate a duplication of
efforts. He thereafter proposed that the working group give a presentation to the Board
Commissioner O'Bryan suggested designating a staff member to be the coordinator.
Administrator Baird recommended that a workshop be held every month for updates. He
said he would put it on a timed Agenda so the public would know when they are scheduled. He
also suggested that someone in the Public Works Department, under Director Chris Mora's
direction, be appointed as the coordinator.
Commissioner Solari suggested holding a periodic workshop so each Commissioner
could provide an update of what they are doing.
Judy Orcutt, 4665 Pebble Bay South, requested that the Board increase the number of
Extension Agents to provide fertilizer and native plant education, as well as monitor the fertilizer
use.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Chairman Flescher, to adopt the
presented Action Plan, subject to ongoing updates as data
becomes available.
July 9, 2013 18
X44 PG 074
Administrator Baird reiterated that it would be beneficial to have a scheduled forum on
the Agenda every month so the Commissioners could share what they have accomplished in
regards to the Lagoon.
MOTION WAS AMENDED by Commissioner O'Bryan,
SECONDED by Chairman Flescher to schedule a forum
every third Tuesday to discuss the Lagoon.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the
Motion carried unanimously. The Board adopted the
presented Action Plan, subject to ongoing updates as data
becomes available, and directed staff to schedule a forum
every third Tuesday to discuss the Lagoon.
14.11 COMMISSIONER BOB SOLARI - NONE -
14.E. COMMISSIONER TIMZORC
14.E.1. SPECIAL FUNDING FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROMOTION
Commissioner Zorc wanted to communicate to prospective compames that Indian River
County is "open for business." He said that he had created three graphics (on file) that could be
used to welcome companies to our County - one is a welcome banner that could be displayed
outside the building, one is a welcome form (like a Proclamation) that would be signed by each
Commissioner, and the other is a packet sleeve that could be used when presenting them with a
welcome package.
Commissioner O'Bryan stressed that most large companies want confidentiality. He felt
the best way to influence a new company to move here would be for them to talk to the
businesses who recently moved into the community so they can emphasize that the Commission
is open for business and willing to help them; let them know that this County Commission led
July 9, 2013 19
the charge for the tax abatement; and that the last 14 job grants were approved. He wanted there
to be a unified front, whereby the business community, the local government, and staff are
supportive and responsive.
Chairman Flescher thought that Commissioner Zorc's suggestions and welcome package
should be taken to the Economic Development Council (EDC). He too, voiced concerns over
confidentiality, noting that certain activities/endeavors could be misconstrued as ethically
questionable.
Commissioner Solari agreed with both Commissioners and suggested that during a
scheduled EDC meeting, available Commissioners could step in for a personal greeting to let the
visiting company know that this County Commission is open for business.
Helene Caseltine, Economic Development Director with the Chamber of Commerce,
commented in support of these suggestions. She liked the proclamation document that
Commissioner Zorc introduced, and felt it could be placed into a gift basket that is provided to
visitors, as long as it does not violate the confidentiality of the Sunshine Law. She conveyed that
clients from a recent meeting were very impressed that high-level individuals came out on short
notice to welcome them, and affirmed that it sends the message that this County is open for
business, that we are interested in your business and we want you here. She revealed that most
companies want confidentiality, and agreed that it would be more beneficial for the visiting
company to hear the compliments from a colleague.
Joseph Paladin, President of Black Swan Consulting, revealed that the first stop for a
new business considering a move to a new County is to contact the Chamber of Commerce to see
what they have to offer. He liked Commissioner Zorc's idea and thought it should be done
through the Chamber, as the County's representative. He also noted that personal meetings make
the biggest difference in the decision of moving to a new County.

BX 1'44 PG 076
Brian Carman, 1190 Ansley Avenue SW, speaking as an observer, said he had spoken
to the representatives of INEOS New Planet BioEnergy, LLC (INPB) after they moved to the
County, and they were most complimentary of the Chamber of Commerce. He did not support
Commissioner Zorc's banner idea.
There was a brief discussion regarding EDC issues.
Commissioner Zore said he would continue to work with the EDC, and also present his
welcome package concept to them.
