West, County Engineer November 16, 2000 Permission to Advertise Public Hearing Stating the County's Intent to Use the Uniform Method of Collecting Non-Ad Valorem Special Assessments Levied by the negency Island Dunes South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration Municipal Services Benefit Unit. BACKGROUND The Board is considering the creation of the negency Island Dunes South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration municipal services benefit unit for beach restoration along South Hutchinson Island. One of the funding methods available for the subject projects is through non-ad valorem special assessments levied on properties within the proposed MSBU and collected using the uniform method pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. In order to preserve this funding option, it is necessary for the Board to adopt a resolution for the proposed MSBU at a duly advertised public hearing held prior to January 1, 2001. The resolution does not in any way obligate the County to levy the special assessment, rather it simply preserve's the County's option to use the uniform method of collection if special assessments are levied. Attached to this memorandum is Resolution No. 00-275 which satisfies the legal requirement. RECOMMENDA TION/CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the Board grant permission to advertise the public hearing to consider the adoption of proposed Resolution No. 00-275, stating the County's intent to use the uniform method of collecting non-ad valorem special assessments for the negency Island Dunes South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration MSBU. In the opinion of staff, the public hearing is recommended to be held on December 19, 2000, which is a night Board meeting. ... - .......

West, County Engineer November 20, 2000 Permission to Advertise Public Hearing Stating the County's Intent to Use the Uniform Method of Collecting Non-Ad Valorem Special Assessments Levied by the South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration Special Assessment District BACKGROUND The Board is considering the creation of the South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration Special Assessment District for beach restoration along South Hutchinson Island. One of the funding methods available for the subject projects is through non-ad valorem special assessments levied on properties within the proposed SAD and collected using the uniform method pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. In order to preserve this funding option, it is necessary for the Board to adopt a resolution for the proposed SAD at a duly advertised public hearing held prior to January 1, 2001 . The resolution does not in any way obligate the County to levy the special assessment, rather it simply preserve's the County's option to use the uniform method of collection if special assessments are levied. Attached to this memorandum is Resolution No. 00-004 which satisfies the legal requirement. RECOMMENDA TION/CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the Board grant permission to advertise the public hearing to consider the adoption of proposed Resolution No. 00-004, stating the County's intent to use the uniform method of collecting non-ad valorem special assessments for the South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration Special Assessment District. In the opinion of staff, the public hearing is recommended to be held on December 19, 2000, which is a night Board meeting.

MINUTES (1-2637) It wqs moved by Com. Bruhn, seconded by Com. Lewis, to approve the minutes of the meeting held October 20, 2000; and, upon roll call, motion carried unanimously. 2. GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENTS The President of the Regency Island Dunes Association, addressed the District regarding the Beach Erosion in her area and requested assistance in funding. The District was advised that a designation would be needed in order to obtain funding from any government agency. Mr. Charles Grande, representing the President's Council, Hutchinson Island, addressed the District and stated that when Sen. Pruitt met with the Council, he encouraged them to pass along the information that he was doing his best to think outside of the box and come up with some creative financing methodologies including identifying that surplus that should available for use including funding the re-con study. --". . 3. ADMINISTRATION (1-2859) Commissioner Barnes requested discussion on the letter received from Kirby Green, Department of Environmental Protection. Mr. Richard Bouchard, Engineering Department, gave an overview and update on the Erosion situation. He also reviewed the FDEP Grant Summary, Ft. Pierçe. Beach Restoration he presented to the District. He advised the District that until the areas are ident~fied as critically eroding, the state will not cost share in any effort. He is in the midst of preparing a letter to the state inviting them to review and evaluate and also assess the shorelines. He is hopeful that after all the erosion, we may get the designation. If this is the case, this will open two options, 1) to look at this particular grant, or 2) he will request in the letter that the state consider funding the feasibility -1- .... ~ --. . ~ ..." study with the county out of their next year's cycle which means they would not have do this grant at âll. Com. Barnes asked if the private land owners have willingly agreed to participate financially. Mr. Bouchard stated this was an issue they would need to discuss with Ocean Village since they will be getting some benefit from the extra mile. The Presidents Council and the association are going to be the primary benefactors of anything that is done and they have indicated a willingness to establish an erosion zone or an MSBU, something along this line to continue funding for this program. The County Attorney stated they do have the ability to levy special assessments as before. If the District is so inclined to do this, then they will need to plug the option in and make sure we advertise the 4 weeks and adopt the resolution which gives the county the ability to at least consider it in this coming year. He suggested this be done since it preserves the county option. Com. Barnes concurred with the County Attorney's comments and stated he did not want to see a great deal of public money used for private property without some type of private contribution. They could lend the money to the MSBU and then have it paid back. Com. Barnes suggested staff also look at a sand transfer station and work with DEP to at least consider the feasibility. Com. Coward concurred with Com. Barnes' comments. He stated he was a big fan of beach restoration projects, but, in certain instances, it cannot be avoided, a solution must be found. Com. Coward suggested periodic reports be brought back to keep the Board updated on the situation. The County Attorney requested permission from the District to have the MSBU Coordinator advertise the resolution for Board consideration prior to the first of the year. He suggested direction to staff to advertise sometime in December at an appropriate meeting. It was moved by Com. Barnes, seconded by Com. Bruhn, to approve the request by the County Attorney and that the advertisement be designed to cover the most alternative scenarios as possible; and, upon roll call, motion carried unanimously. 4.

ITEM NO. C-2 DATE: November 21,2000 REGULAR [ ] PUBLIC HEARING [ ] CONSENT [X] TO: ST. LUCIE COUNTY EROSION DISTRICT PRESENTED BY: SUBMITTED BY(DEPT): ENGINEERING DIVISION 4115 ,r SUBJECT: Due to emergency conditions, staff recommends Erosion District Board approval to waive the bidding process and award a contract to Underwater Engineering Services, Inc., not to exceed $150,000, for the installation of 1,000 LF of Geo- Tubes. BACKGROUND: The shoreline immediately south of the Ft. Pierce Inlet continues to be an erosional "hot spot" area. Recent high tides and heavy winds (northeast) left the shoreline in a very vulnerable state requiring the placement of rubble in the area of Seaway Drive. Recognizing the rubble as only a temporary protective measure, staff has been working diligently with our Coastal consultant to identify a longer term solution. As a result ofthis investigation, we recommend installing Geo- Tubes (sand-filled tubes) along this stretch of shoreline. The Geo-Tubes will be configured shore parallel and will commence at the south jetty ofthe inlet and extend southward for 1,000 feet. The existing rubble on the beach will also be removed as part of this contract. FUNDS: This project will not have any budgetary impact. FDEP has agreed to cost share this project through an existing grant agreement (98SL 1) at 50%. Erosion District funds are also available in this grant. Funds will be made available in account nO.184203-371 0-563000-19008. PREVIOUS ACTION: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Due to emergency conditions, staff recommends Erosion District Board approval to waive the bidding process and award a contract to Underwater Engineering Services, Inc.,not to exceed $150,000, for the installation of 1,000 LF of Geo-Tubes and execution of said contract by the Chairperson COMMISSION ACTION: [X] APPROVED [ ] OTHER: [ ] DENIED ('IC,"oty Attomey ~/ ¿ ;i ~ [x]Originating Dept.
