PRESENTATIONS U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will present the Pre -Brief for the Dade County Shore Protection Project Scoping Meeting. Jackie Kiser, Army Corps of Engineers, gave a presentation "Alternative Sand Source Investigation" (filed with the clerk) that addressed the pre -brief for the Dade County Shore Protection Project Scoping meeting. Commissioner Mowery expressed his concerns and commented on the resident's concerns regarding the removal of sand from Saint Lucie County. Commissioner Hutchinson thanked Ms. Kiser for being present. She discussed the reasons that she is opposed to this project. She is concerned that the SAND study is not complete and she is still looking for answers regarding: who will be using the sand, how will it be transported, what the effects on the beaches will be and who will pay to replace the roads if the sand is trucked out. Jackie Kiser responded that all of her questions will be a part of the NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) document. Commissioner Hutchinson stated that for Saint Lucie County residents to be informed, they need to have answers to those questions. 21Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00 PM Commissioner Dzadovsky echoed Commissioner Hutchinson's concerns and questioned the benefits to Saint Lucie County. Jackie Kiser responded that this project will benefit the State of Florida as a state. Commissioner Dzadovsky talked about Saint Lucie County being in a growth mode and having a tourism influx. He discussed his concerns with the project and asked about the sand recollection policy. Jackie Kiser explained how sand accumulates and then discussed beach nourishment process. Commissioner Dzadovsky expressed his concerns regarding sand compatibility for nesting sea turtles. He questioned if they will be able to get high quality sand that is compatible for nesting. Jackie Kiser responded that sand compatibility is part of the permitting process. She also talked about working with the county to select the most beneficial borrow areas. Commissioner Dzadovsky talked about erosion concerns and questioned if there will be funding in the future. He suggested that Dade County consider sharing revenue sources for this project. Jackie Kiser mentioned that borrow areas would be located furthest from the shores which would not have economic impacts to St Lucie. Commissioner Dzadovsky voiced his intentions about staying in Seven50 plan so that there is a voice at the table when other counties want to secure resources in St. Lucie County. Commissioner Mowery asked for a recap of what is received by the Army Corp of Engineers as it relates to the beaches. Commissioner Mowery mentioned that the sand is an issue for St. Lucie County and that the county cannot address this issue individually. Commissioner Lewis mentioned that each project is separate but on a 2 year average, costs for nourishments can amount from $7 to $35 Million. Richard Bouchard, Senior Coastal Engineer for St. Lucie County, referred to the Ft Pierce Beach project and informed the Board that project life is ready to expire and they are working with the Corp to expand this project another 50 years. He said that St Lucie County is on a 2 year nourishment cycle at Ft. Pierce Beach. Erosion is bad and in the last couple years, they've gone through four to five hundred thousand cubic yards of sand a year. Cost is shared with the Corp who picks up 3 1 Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00 PM 78%, the state picks up 11%, and St. Lucie picks up 11% so the County is very dependent on the Corp for re -nourishment. Commissioner Mowery re -capped and gave an overview of the erosion process and re -nourishment process. Richard Bouchard explained that the sand placed at Fort Pierce beach does not wash away, it feeds the beaches to the south which makes those beaches healthier. VI. GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT Lelani Blackburn, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding her concern that the county pools are not open long enough. She explained the reasons why they should be open longer throughout the year and asked the Board to consider allowing the pools to stay open until October to allow for more water safety courses. Larisa Deslies, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding her concern that the local hospitals do not offer adequate care for children. She talked about her brother having to travel to Palm Beach to receive proper medical attention and offered suggestions to address the issue. Commissioner Mowery responded that the Board does not have any control over the hospitals and suggested that she approach the local hospitals with her concerns and suggestions. Commissioner Dzadovsky commented that Martin Memorial is building a new hospital and suggested that she raise the issue with them as they are looking to be a top notch facility. Ryan Spellman, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding his concern with traffic congestion in Port St. Lucie. He discussed the safety issues that the congestion causes and proposed the completion of Crosstown Parkway as a potential solution. Commissioner Dzadovsky responded that Crosstown Parkway is a priority. In addition, they are trying to install a light system that will open the lights for rescue vehicles and that will also help the traffic flow. They are currently looking for funding for the project and he advised Mr. Spellman that his comments are appreciated. Commissioner Hutchinson commented on people educating themselves to move over and make way for emergency vehicles. Jason Redman, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding his concern for the indigent and homeless. He talked about possible grants and donations to help relieve the tension for those folks and to establish a connection between the county and non-profit organizations. Kim McDaniel, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding her concern for the safety of children walking and riding their bikes to the bus stop in the morning. She talked about a specific area near Del Rio and Davis Street where the lighting is poor and it is difficult to see pedestrians. She proposed that free flashers or reflectors be provided to all children walking or biking to the bus stop. She made suggestions on how to provide those items to the children. 41Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00 PM Jose Romas, Keiser University student, addressed the Board regarding his concern with local gangs and vandalism in Port St. Lucie. He proposed creating free programs within the community such as classes that teach acting, music, painting, jewelry making, yoga or perhaps basic business skills. He also suggested perhaps building a bicycle track. He would like to see these types activities available for the young people in our community. Professor Jim Van Allan thanked the Board and the audience for allowing his students to speak first.

City of Port St. Lucie Proposed Annexation - Ordinance No. 13-16 - Settlement Offer The County Attorney provided background on the proposed settlement agreement for the City of Port St. Lucie's proposed annexation. He explained that county staff did not feel that the property was contiguous and didn't feel it qualified for annexation. He described the steps taken so far in the conflict resolution process. He explained that the City is not willing to eliminate the north/south extension as they had originally offered to do. Even with that, the County Attorney recommended that the Board accept the settlement proposal as modified. He commented that taxpayers do not like to see governments fight each other with public dollars. These things often have ripple effects and that is also a factor in the recommendation. Commissioner Mowery commented on the work that has been done on this. He talked about the process so far and said that he understands that they can take the staff recommendation and then work through the conditions. Commissioner Johnson discussed the working relationship that they have with Port St. Lucie and would like to see that continue. He made a motion to approve the proposed settlement agreement with the condition that the north/south finger extension be removed. 111 Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00 PM Commissioner Lewis seconded the item for discussion. She discussed her concerns and agrees with the County Attorney regarding spending public funds to fight this issue. She seconded the motion in the interest of compromise even though she does not feel that this is a legal annexation. Commissioner Mowery concurred with Commissioner Lewis. He would like to move forward in a positive way and agrees that they should move forward with the settlement including the amendments and removing the north/south finger. He talked about the annexation process and gave an example that supports the property not needing to be annexed. Commissioner Dzadovsky commented on his relationship with Port St. Lucie. He disagreed with the idea that a municipality would have greater weight than other property owners. He is opposed to the annexation and explained his reasons. He also talked about his concerns regarding the future water harvesting. He commented on the agreement with Port St. Lucie in 1994 being memorialized. He doesn't feel that this property is contiguous and is concerned with the enclave and the pockets being created. In addition, he discussed the example of Beau Rivage and the loss of tax revenue as a result. He talked about other options such as an overlay and then discussed his concern that they want to pump water from the C23 canal into an aquifer. Although the water issue doesn't have anything to do with the annexation, it needs to be addressed. He wanted to know why they won't take out the sliver and why they are in a rush to do this. He also mentioned that there is a rumor that a group would like to build out this area. He would like to find a solution through conflict resolution and will not be supporting approval. Commissioner Hutchinson agreed that they have a good working relationship with Port St. Lucie and hopes that will continue. She does not feel this is a legal annexation and agrees with Commissioner Dzadovsky that there has been no recognition that this is St. Lucie County's service area. She doesn't feel she can accept the motion as it is on the table, she feels that the elected officials should sit down to discuss this. Commissioner Dzadovsky asked that the motion maker and the seconder reconsider letting this go back to allow time to discuss this item with their colleagues in Port St. Lucie. Commissioner Lewis agrees that they should continue with the process and meet with their elected piers. Commissioner Johnson stated that he would be willing to take the next step and sit down with their counsel. Commissioner Mowery commented on the process and explained that the City already has this item on their agenda and is concerned that this may not be perceived in a positive light. Commissioner Johnson asked for clarification on the conflict resolution. 12 1 Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00 PM Commissioner Mowery reviewed the next steps of the conflict resolution process and potential outcomes based on the options on the table for discussion. Commissioner Johnson discussed his thoughts on how to proceed. Commissioner Mowery commented that by going forward with the motion on the table, it would essentially stop the conflict resolution process. Commissioner Dzadovsky suggested that they pull the motion from the table and ask Port St. Lucie to approve the annexation with the conditions that were discussed. The County Attorney feels that without affirmative action by the Board tonight, the City will probably go forward with adopting the annexation ordinance. He discussed the options and potential outcomes. Commissioner Johnson renewed his previous motion to accept the settlement with the conditions and removing the north/south finger. The County Attorney reviewed the proposed motion as he understood it. Commissioner Mowery expressed his concerns regarding what may happen if they do not approve the suggested motion. Commissioner Lewis stood by her second. Commissioner Dzadovsky reiterated his concerns and why he can't support this. Commissioner Johnson would like to move forward collectively.
