The Housing HUB contract has been completed, and the signed agreement for $500,000 will be $250,000 yearly for two years. The Housing Needs Assessment is in the draft, and staff is working on negotiations to get a contract signed. Also, the Jail Medical Wing Study is on the agenda for formal approval on moving $7,220 from the American Rescue Plan Reserves to complete the contract cost.

Commissioner Hutchinson recommended allocating the $212,116 remaining unused funds from the Fiber / Broadband / Digital Access project and completing the unmet needs for the Hog Pen Slough Cleanout stormwater project or splitting the funding between the Indian River Estates -Phase 3 and Melville Rd. Stormwater-Phase 2 project. She mentioned that the $3,456,947 within the ARP Reserves could take care of all the $2,791,788 in stormwater projects, or the option could continue with the infrastructure sale tax dollars funding them as previously discussed and move the ARP Reserves funding to the $3,153,459 in utility projects. Staff advised that it is the Board's will to allocate the funding from the Reserves. Commissioner Townsend, Commissioner Dzdovsky, Commissioner Bartz, and Chair Mitchell concurred on using the reserves to complete the projects. George Landry, Solid Waste Division Director, commented and updated the Board on the Lakewood Park Potable Water Project (MSBU) project and advised it is on hold temporarily pending the results of the MSBU and resident feedback. Infrastructure funding is still an option but requested some funding remains in the American Rescue Plan Reserves for the Utility project.

Second of two (2) Public Hearings for a County Initiated Land Development Code Text Amendment Creating an Administrative Variance Process for the Required Minimum Yard Setback Standards for Single- family Detached Dwellings and the Associated Residential Accessory Structures and Providing for a Special Magistrate to Serve as the Board of Adjustment - ADOPTION HEARING Benjamin Balcer, Planning & Development Services Assistant Director, presented this item to the Board. As the St. Lucie County Land Development Code required, this item was publicly noticed on October 6, 2022. Primarily, the Land Development Code Text Amendment creates an Administrative Variance to streamline the regulatory process for limited setback variances and increases staff's ability to provide administrative 111 Pag BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, October 18, 2022 9:00 AM approvals for single-family homeowner's detached dwellings and residential accessory structures. Have the Board of Adjustment be composed of a Special Magistrate. Staff's ability to provide administrative approvals for single-family homeowners to address requests of up to thirty-five percent (35%) of the minimum front, rear, and side yard setback requirements within the Agricultural and Residential Zoning Districts. The new Administrative Variance only addresses the variance requests for the minimum front, rear, and side yard setback requirements. Still, it captures the majority of variance requests the owners submit to the County. The new code section will be similar to the adopted and existing administrative variances for the required minimum yard setback standards for recreational vehicle parks and mobile home parks. Additionally, the new code includes the authority to approve variances of six (6) inches or less without a formal application and notice for existing single-family homes and accessory structures, as requested. Staff provided the Board with a table of maximum setback variances that can be processed administratively and advised an applicant may not receive the maximum based on the reviewed criteria. The administrative variance process includes specific criteria to review the requested setback variances, including: • All requests shall demonstrate a showing of good and sufficient cause. • The request will not impair or injure other property or improvements. • The request is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structures. • The request will not result in encroachment into environmentally sensitive resources or any access/utility easement or common area. • The request does not result in more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the required front, rear, or side yard setback area. The amendment also includes a requirement to notify all property owners within 500 feet of the subject property, posting a sign, and provides for a public hearing before the Board of Adjustments if written objections are received within the notification area. There is also an appeal process for any person aggrieved by an administrative decision of the Board of Adjustment. As previously noted, the administrative variance process is anticipated to address most requests, maybe twelve to fifteen per year. As such, the proposed code includes modifying the Board of Adjustments for a Special Magistrate to streamline the overall process further. The Special Magistrate shall be designated by the Board rather than an appointed board which may meet infrequently based on the proposed amendment and serves at their pleasure. The individual must be a retired Florida judge or be a member in good standing of the Florida Bar for a minimum of five (5) years. The request for proposal of the Special Magistrate includes the individual must reside in St. Lucie County or the Treasure Coast. Staff finds the petition meets the standards of review outlined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, Section 11.06.03, and does not conflict with the goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommended the Board approve the proposed text amendment to the Land Development Code, as presented in the proposed Ordinance 2022-29. Chair Mitchell opened the hearing for public comment at this time. With no one wishing to address the Board, Chair Mitchell closed the public hearing. 12 1 P a g BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, October 18, 2022 9:00 AM A motion was made to approve staff recommendations, and it passed unanimously.

Barbara Guettler, Public Works MSBU Coordinator, presented this item to the Board. One of the funding methods available for capital improvements and essential services is to levy non -ad valorem special assessments on specially -benefited properties from the improvements. The proposed special assessment is based on the benefit and collected along with property taxes using the uniform method pursuant to Section 197.3632 of the Florida Statutes. To preserve this funding option, as necessary Board must adopt the resolutions expressing its intent to use the uniform method commencing in November 2023. The resolutions must be considered at a duly advertised public hearing held before January 1, 2023. The mentioned resolutions do not oblige the County to levy special assessments; instead, they satisfy the legal requirements preserving the County's option to use the uniform collection method if special assessments are levied. Staff advised due to the public hearing requirement; it was necessary to open each proposed resolution separately. Staff recommended the Board adopt the special assessment notice of intent resolution for the Culvert Municipal Services Benefit Unit and authorization for the Chair to sign documents approved by the County Attorney.

REGULAR AGENDA A. COUNTY ATTORNEY 1. Termination (Without Cause) of April 1, 2009, Agreement with CareHere, LLC (St. Lucie County Employee Health Clinic) Daniel McIntyre, County Attorney, presented this item to the Board. On April 1, 2009, the County entered into an Agreement with CareHere, LLC, to staff and operate the St. Lucie County Employee Health Clinic. The agreement has been amended eight (8) times, as indicated in the Board memorandum. The agreement, and amendments, allow the County to terminate without cause with one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice to CareHere and the other parties to the Amendments. Based on a review of the existing service provided by CareHere, County staff believes that it is in the County's best interest to exercise its right to terminate the April 1, 2009, Agreement with CareHere, LLC, including the Amendments, without cause. As noted in the Premise Health acquired CareHere, LLC, in 2020. Howard Tipton, the County Administrator, provided an overview of the business approach which led to the separation of the contract with CareHere, LLC. He advised there was a time when the employee clinic was high functioning and added value to County employee healthcare and well-being. Employees and dependants could receive same -day appointments, the facility was a physician -based practice, and it was always someone to take care of employee treatment. The organization and contracted agencies feel the clinic no longer meets the expectations and needs to continue services. The purpose of the employee clinic was to catch health issues early and provide wellness checkups and guidance for needed lifestyle changes. More importantly, to directly help 161Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, October 18, 2022 9:00 AM focus on illnesses (diabetes, hypertension, etc.) that may increase the County's health insurance costs. The common focus of the clinic is to keep people healthier and productive and reduce insurance claims that would otherwise drive up our costs. When employees aren't using the clinic, they seek other physicians or just not seeing anyone, and both risks increase insurance expenses. The County health insurance renewal this year doubled to 16% with a massive increase in high claimants. The County's HR director shared concerns with CareHere, LLC/Premise Health, and the improvements needed haven't materialized in time. The current provider arrangement is not meeting the business expectations, and it is recommended that the Board terminate without cause the agreement with CareHere, LLC/Premise Health for employee clinic services. If approved, it will trigger a 180-day notice to CareHere, LLC/Premise Health that services will end in 6-months. Staff will be working to bring the Board another clinic provider and work towards a smooth transition that maintains employee health care throughout the timeframe. Staff recommended that the Board exercise its right under Section 3.02 of the April 1, 2009 agreement with CareHere, LLC, as amended, to terminate the agreement and all amendments without cause by providing one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice. `i IIIULIUII VVdJ IIIdUC LU CIPPI UV -JLCIII I ULU I III I ICI I UCIL I U I I J, CI I IL Pd.-JJCU U I I d I I I I I I UU.-J I Y.

Proposed Interlocal Agreement with the City of Port St. Lucie - Park Impact Fees - ITEM PULLED PRIOR TO METTING The item was pulled prior to the meeting. 3. Permission to Advertise - Exchange Agreement between the City of Fort Pierce and St. Lucie County for Certain Rights -of -Way - ADD ON JoAnn Riley, Property Acquisition Manager, presented this item to the Board. On September 21, 2017, the Board of County Commissioners approved a Purchase and Sale Agreement where King Maritime Group, LLC agreed to sell five parcels to the County consisting of 12.34 acres along with a Sovereignty Submerged Lands Lease with the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund, the approvals for the installation of a pier to facilitate the operation of a travel lift and a 10% interest in real property owned by Destin Beach, Inc. pursuant to a Final Judgement entered by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, Case No. 08-174160- Civ. The County closed on the acquisition of the King property in 2018. The County previously acquired the Harbour Pointe property in 1997. County staff and the City of Fort Pierce have negotiated a proposed Exchange Agreement involving the exchange 171Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, October 18, 2022 9:00 AM of certain rights -of -way for Board consideration. A draft of the proposed Exchange Agreement was provided to the Board along with a map that graphically depicts the proposed exchange of rights -of -way. The exchange, if approved, would allow the County to seek grants to fund the reconstruction and improvement of certain access roads to the Port of Fort Pierce, graphically depicted in the attached map, which would directly benefit County owned property at the Port. The rights of way involved in the proposed exchange are as follows: County would convey to the City • Indian River Drive from Avenue A to Seaway Drive City would convey to the County • Avenue M Extension • Fisherman's Wharf from U.S. 1 to its eastern terminus • Harbor Street • Port Avenue • North 2nd Street from Seaway Drive to its northern terminus • North Indian River Drive from Seaway Drive to Fisherman's Wharf Howard Tipton, the County Administrator, provided an overview of why the item is in the County's best interest. The County sits as the port authority, and several roads within it provide connectivity. The City of Fort Pierce currently maintains the roads within the Port, and the area may be a low priority to the City because it is not heavily trafficked. Still, conversely, the area is a high priority to the County. The County has some major projects coming to the area besides rehabilitating ports, the harbor, and Avenue M. Port Director and staff are recommending approval because substantial State grants will help the County fund the infrastructure. Staff recommended that the Board authorize staff to advertise a notice of public hearing to be held on November 15, 2022, at 1:00 PM or as soon thereafter as possible. A motion was made to approve staff recommendations, and it passed unanimously.
