Approval ofWA # 5 with Dredging and Marine Consultants, LLC., for Engineering Services. BACKGROUND: In 1998, the County initiated the Taylor Creek Dredging and Restoration Project, to remove the muck sediments from Taylor Creek. Removal of muck sediments from the tributaries to the Indian River Lagoon is a goal of the IRL National Estuary Program. In 1999, the County initiated a spoil site study, to select a location forthe Taylor Creek Project. A total of 13 site were studied, to select a location for the Taylor Creek Project. A total of 13 sites were evaluated for feasibility as potential dredge spoil disposal sites. In December of 2000, the County selected the "Seminole Property" as a potential permanent spoil site. In early 2001, the City of Fort Pierce and St. Lucie Village objected to the use of the "Seminole Property" as a permanent spoil disposal site. The County proceeded with selection of an alternate location to be used as a temporary spoil site. The Port Property was determined to be the best location for a temporary spoil site, due to the fact that it was previously built out of dredged fill material. In September of 2003, Mr. Lloyd Bell granted the use of his Port Property as a temporary spoil site. In April of 2004, the County commenced construction of Phase 1 ofthe Taylor Creek Dredging Project. A 16 acre spoil disposal site was constructed for handling the muck sediments. The Project was completed in June of 2005, and the spoil site has not been used by the County since.

BACKGROUND: Taylor CreeklC25 Dredging Restoration Project involves the dredging of Taylor Creek from the C-25 spillway and Ft. Pierce Farms Canal No 1 to the Indian River Lagoon Intra-coastal Waterway. The project will involve the ntmoval of approximately 210,000 cubic yards of muck sediments to ntstore Taylor Creek to original design depth or hard sand bottom. The accumulation of sediments over the past 40 years represents a threat to the health of the seagrasses In the Indian River Lagoon Estuary. Once the sediments are removed, Taylor Creek will function as a silt trap to accumulate silt before it is discharged to the Indian River Lagoon. In addition, the navigation channel will be restontd to its full depth to benefit the public. In April, '2003, the County submitted permit applications for the entire Taylor Creek Dredging Project. In August, 2003 a decision was made to subdivide the Project into 3 Phases for purposes of permitting and construction. This decision was based upon the complexity of permitting issues and the need to expend grant funds in a timely manner. Currently, Phase 1 of the dredging has been completed. Approximately 100,000 cubic yards of muck sediments have been dredged from the navigation channel, east of the Railroad Bridge. On July 31,2007 bids were opened for the Taylor Creek Restoration Phase 3 Project.

BACKGROUND: The St. Lucie County Artificial Reef Program has added 13 deployments on its two permitted artificial reef sites south of the Fort Pierce Inlet over the last 2 years.

The first site is located 5.6 nautical miles from the inlet in water depths of approximately 55 feet and the second site is 13.4 nautical miles in 120 to 140 foot water depths. Both of these sites are depicted by the crosshatched areas the on the attached drawing. The Marine Advisory Committee also supports the permitting of both sites.

RA1 DATE: August 14, 2007 TO: Board of County Commissioners SUBMITTED BY (DEPT): Grants/Disaster Recovery REGULAR [X] PUBLIC HEARING [] CONSENT [ ] PRESENTED BY: Roberta Breene. Grants Resource Developer SUBJECT: Approval or guidance on the last stages of the Hackberry Hammock acquisition project consisting of the: (1) last option agreement for sale and purchase of the current project; (2) submittal of a Boundary Modification Request to Florida Communities Trust to acquire one additional parcel; and (3) submittal of a related funding request to the South Florida Water Management District. BACKGROUND: The Hackberry Hammock project, along Germany Canal Road and adjacent to Paleo Hammock, was approved by the Board in May 2005 and originally included approximately 232 acres. The last parcel (Grimes/Langel - 20 acres) is under contract and attached for Board approval. To date, 143 acres, acquired, under contract or pending, valued at approximately $3.218M (plus due diligence) will have been acquired in fee or by donation at a total cost to the County of $1.129, plus due diligence. Florida Communities Trust scored and approved this project for funding in 2005 and is now a 39.12% funding partner on any approved purchases that can be completed and allow this project to close with FCT by December 31, 2007. The prices paid for much of the acquisitions to date have been less than anticipated at the time of the award. In addition, two of the parcels designated for acquisition are no longer available. Therefore, of the total FCT funding award ($3,398,061) allocated to this project, approximately $2,633,062 remains unused and available to St. Lucie County for this project for pre-approved parcels. If we cannot use these funds for acquisitions related to this project. the allocation will revert to FCT. However, there is an additional 40-acre parcel (BSA) adjacent to the Hackberry Hammock/Paleo Hammock projects for which we now have received expressions of interest in selling by the owners. FCT has agreed to a Boundary Modification for the Hackberry project that would allow the purchase of this parcel with FCT providing 39.12% funding. This would help square-off our acreage, facilitate future connectivity and would be attached to upland habitat. In addition, Staff has met with a representative of the South Florida Water Management District relative to funding that also may be available to the County for these parcels. SFWMD owns and is acquiring significant acreage in this area as part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Program. Some of these lands are directly adjacent to Hackberry Hammock. Should we be able to secure the SFWMD funding this funding, it would potentially pay 50% of the acquisition costs. With FCT contributing 39.12 %, and SFWMD potentially contributing 50%, the County would be paying only 10.88% of the acquisition costs for a 40-acre parcel. In addition, we plan to ask SFWMD to partner with us on the acquisition of the Grimes/Langel parcel. Partnering these two funding sources provides a unique opportunity for the County to leverage available funding to acquire property (at 10.88% of the appraised value) that the County had already designated for acquisition and conservation and that SFWMD and FCT each have also an interest in conserving. The parcel sought in the Boundary Modification Request has a roughly estimated value of $1 M, plus due diligence.
