RESOLUTION NO. 02-97
A RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING THE MONTH OF APRIL, 2002, AS
"CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH"; "CONGRATULATING THE
CASTLE ON ITS MORE THAN TWO DECADES OF SERVICE TO THE
FOUR-COUNTY TREASURE COAST AREA"; AND "COMMENDING
THEM FOR THEIR CONTINUED SUCCESS IN HELPING FAMILIES
BREAK FREE FROM THE CYCLE OF CHILD ABUSE BY SETTING A
NATIONAL STANDARD FOR HEALTHY FAMILIES" IN ST. LUCIE
COUNTY, FLORIDA
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of S1. Lucie County, Florida, has made
the following determinations:
1. Child abuse is a serous and growing problem affecting over 3,620 children on the
Treasure Coast; 75,000 children in the state of Florida annually; and more than 3.2 million
nationally, including more than 1,000 abuse-related tragic fatalities.
2. This societal malignancy called child abuse respects no racial, religious, class or
geographic boundaries, and in fact, has been declared a national emergency.
3. Every child deserves to live in a safe, permanent and caring family knowing that children
from stable, healthy home environments are better prepared for school, have a significantly better
academic future, and are less likely to become involved in drugs and crime.
4. The CASTLE of the Treasure Coast, incorporated in 1981 as the Exchange Club Center
for the Prevention of Child Abuse of the Treasure Coast, Inc., was the first center in the country
created for the sole purpose of bringing awareness to and breaking the cycle of child abuse, and has
become the model for a network of over 100 such agencies throughout 27 states all working to win
the battle against the devastating pain and lifelong results of child abuse.
5. The CASTLE (which stands for Child Abuse Services, Training and Life Enrichment),
through its support of parent aide programs, parenting classes, educational programs and community
..

.....,
- ,
.
service activities, is making significant progress in stopping this crime against families and children.
6. Studies have shown that prevention remains the best defense for our children, that for
every dollar spent through prevention efforts of the CASTLE and its sister agencies, needless
tragedies are prevented and children and families are kept whole and protected.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners ofSt.
Lucie County, Florida:
1. This Board does hereby proclaim the month of April as "CHILD ABUSE
PREVENTION MONTH" in St. Lucie County, Florida.
2. This Board further "CONGRATULATES THE CASTLE ON ITS MORE THAN

understand, recognize and respond to this grievous crime against defenseless children.

RESOLUTION NO. 02-84
A RESOLUTION URGING BELLSOUTH TO
RECONSIDER ITS PROPOSED RELOCATION
OF THE FORT PIERCE, FLORIDA CALL
CENTER LOCATED AT 3300 OKEECHOBEE
ROAD, GIVEN THE SEVERE ECONOMIC AND
EMOTIONAL CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH A
MOVE
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners ofSt. Lucie County, Florida, has made
the following determinations:
1. BellSouth recently announced that the corporation plans to relocate the call centers
operating in ten Florida cities into four cities.
2. The relocation proposal constitutes a major change in the operation of Bell South services
for Treasure Coast citizens, businesses, and local governments, and tremendous upheaval in the lives
of company employees whose livelihood and family security are threatened.
3. The proposal removes the call centers that operate currently in Gainesville, Panama City,
Daytona, Orlando, Fort Pierce, and West Palm Beach, and leaves the whole territory on the Treasure
Coast without customer service from call centers in the region.
4. Call centers constitute the customer service network of BellSouth and include the Sales
Associates, Service Representatives, and Office Assistance.
5. BellSouth's proposal will uproot those families that are compelled to relocate according
to the company directive, and the large number oflong-term employees who cannot move to follow
their jobs will simply be left behind financially and emotionally.
6. Dedicated women constitute the principal class of employees tragically affected by the
relocation proposal, and traditionally it is more difficult for them to relocate and Florida's Treasure
.....
.."
t
Coast, including surrounding communities, will suffer a significant reduction in anticipated
revenue.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of St.
Lucie County, Florida:
1. This Board hereby urges BellSouth to reconsider its proposed relocation of the Fort
Pierce, Florida call center given the severe economic and emotional consequences of such a move.
2. The County Administrator is hereby directed to forward a copy of this resolution to Mr.

C.A. NO.

SUBJECT:
Sludge Disposal Regulations
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKGROUND:
In 1987, the County, working with St. Lucie County Health Unit, adopted regulations
pertaining to the disposal of sludge, septage and sewage. A copy of these regulations which
have been codified in Chapter 1-10 of the Code of Ordinances of St. Lucie County are attached.
I have spoken with Jim Moses, Environmental Manager of the Health Department
concerning the existing regulations. Mr. Moses will be providing a written memorandum on the
background and history of the adoption and enforcement of the current regulations as well as
suggestions for modifying the current regulations. When I receive Mr. Moses' memorandum,
I will forward the memorandum to the Board under separate cover. I have also invited Mr.
Moses to appear at the Board's April 2 meeting in case the Board has any questions.
My office contacted the Martin County Attorney's Office for copies of any ordinances
pertaining to sludge disposal. The County Attorney's Office faxed a copy of Martin County
Ordinance Numbers 585 and 589 which were adopted on March 20, 2001 and June 30, 2001
respectively. A copy of these ordinances are attached. A review of this ordinance does not
reveal a general prohibition against land disposal of sludge in Martin County. According to
Martin County Environmental Services Director John Polley, there are no additional draft
ordinances (see March 27, 2002 fax from Martin County Attorney's Office.

COMMISSION REVIEW: April 2, 2002
ENGINEERING MEMORANDUM NO. 02-11
TO:
Board of County Commissioners
FROM:
Donald B. West, County Engineer
DATE:
March 13, 2002
SUBJECT: Oleander Business Park MSBU - Rescind Interlocal Agreement with Fort Pierce Utilities
Authority and the City of Fort Pierce to Provide Wastewater Improvements
BACKGROUND:
In 1995, St. Lucie County was petitioned by property owners to create a MSBU to fund water and
wastewater improvements provided by Fort Pierce Utilities Authority.
On December 19,1995, the Board created the Oleander Business Park MSBU.
On July 23, 1996, the Board approved an Interlocal Agreement with FPUA and City of Ft. Pierce
establishing each parties responsibilities toward the project. Under this agreement, FPUA agreed to fund
the engineering and design costs, contribute $100,000.00 toward construction costs, and to fund the
"Extended Service Area" which at the time was estimated at $158,000.00.
In 1998, the County obtained an Economic Development Grant to fund the potable water and the
wastewater improvements would still be funded through the MSBU. In 2000, the water distribution
system was completed.
On January 12, 1999, the Board approved the "Amended and Restated" Interlocal Agreement with FPUA
to provide that unless the agreement is terminated by mutual written agreement of all parties, it will
remain in effect until all of the terms and conditions have been fulfilled.
In 1999, it was determined the project cost would be significantly higher. This would result in higher
assessment costs and increasing FPUA's contributional amount. In 2001, a business owner who is
subject to one-third of the assessment, withdrew their support due to the assessment increase. Since
this owner still needed wastewater service, FPUA agreed to construct a force main (less costly than
gravity) directly to their property if they would agree to pay FPUA directly and purchase a grinder pump
station.
On November 20, 2001, FPUA sent letters to all of the MSBU participants informing them that due to
higher project costs and lack of support, it was their intent to terminate the MSBU project. The letter
further stated that FPUA would be willing to provide a "force main" for those individuals who were still
interested in obtaining service, but they would be required to pay FPUA directly and purchase a grinder
pump station. Four )the thirty-four property owners responded with interest. """"
On December 18, 2001 the FPUA Board voted to rescind the interlocal agreement with the County
because they do not feel they could justify the additional expense to the existing rate customers. A copy
of the minutes is attached.
On December 27,2001, FPUA sent a letter (attached) to the County requesting that the Board also agree
to rescind the interlocal agreement.
On February 18, 2002, the County also mailed letters to the property owners informing them that on April
2, 2002, the Board will consider rescinding the agreement with FPUA, thereby terminating the project.
The letter also requested they provide any comments for the Board's consideration. A copy of the letter
is attached.
Unless the majority of land owners still support the project, staff feels there is no need to continue. To
date, only one property owner has replied, stating their desire to continue with the project. Even though
county staff has invested a considerable amount of time on this project, the "out of pocket" expenditures
do not exceed $500.00. FPUA has spent over $100,000.00 toward the engineering design, but is not
seeking any compensation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board rescind the Interlocal Agreement unless there is sufficient interest from
the land owners to continue with the Project.

RE: Oleander Business Park MSBU - Wastewater Improvements
Parcel 10 No. 2428-502-0001-000/8

-:>
Dear Property Owner:
c
In 1995, St. Lucie County was petitioned by property owners to create a municipal services
benefit unit to fund water and wastewater improvements in this area. An informal meeting
was held with the property owners to discuss the proposed project. A cost estimate was
given based upon preliminary estimates prepared by the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority
(FPUA) which included their monetary contribution toward the project. It was further
explained that until the project could be designed, the costs were only a rough estimate
and subject to change. The meeting concluded with the property owners instructing
County staff to proceed with the project.
On December 19, 1995, the Board of County Commissioners created the Oleander
Business Park Municipal Services Benefit Unit to fund a Domestic Water and Wastewater
System and authorized the staff to proceed with the engineering design. On July 23, 1996,
St. Lucie County, the City of Ft. Pierce and FPUA entered into an Interlocal Agreement
establishing each party's responsibilities toward the project.
In 1998,an economic development grant was obtained to fund the domestic water system.
This left only the wastewater system to be funded through the Oleander Business Park
MSBU. Upon completion of the design for the wastewater system, construction bids were
received and the cost came in considerably higher than initially proposed. FPUA
implemented some design changes to help lower the cost, but the costs still exceeded
available funding..
One of the property owners, that would be subject to a high assessment, has withdrawn
their support of the project due to the cost issues. The amount of FPUA's contribution will
also significantly increase. Without any guaranteed revenues over a projected period or
time, they do not feel they can justify the budget expense to their existing rate customers.
Due to the lack of support by the aforementioned owner and the additional funding needed,

needs wastewater service, FPUA has agreed to provide a less expensive "low pressure"
system (forcemain and grinder pumps) to their property. The owner would pay FPUA
directly for their proportionate share of the cost.
Recently, FPUA sent letters to all of the MSBU district participants asking if anyone else
is interested in connecting to a "low pressure" system. Instead of financing the
improvements through a MSBU, each individual connecting would pay FPUA directly for
their share of the project cost.
The County has received a formal request by Fort Pierce Utilities to rescind the Interlocal
Agreement since the MSBU has become cost prohibitive and no longer appears viable.
A copy of their letter is enclosed for your review. Staff will present their request to the
Board of County Commissioners on April 2, ,2002 at 7:00 p.m. or as soon as the matter
may be heard in the St. Lucie County Commission Chambers, 2300 Virginia Avenue, Fort
Pierce, Florida. Please enter through the north entrance of the Roger Poitras Annex and
proceed to the County Commission Chambers located on the third floor.
If the Interlocal Agreement is rescinded, the Oleander Business Park MSBU would be
dissolved. If you have any comments you want considered by the Board, you can present
them to the Board at the meeting or you may provide them in writing prior to the meeting.
Since this is your project, it would help the Board to know whether you wish to dissolve the
MSBU or continue with the Project. Your input is very important!
Meanwhile, if you wish to discuss this issue, please feel free to call me at (561) 462-1707.

Re: Oleander Business Park Sewer MSBU
Dear Mr. Anderson:
On December 18, the FPUA Board voted to rescind the interlocal agreement
signed by FPUA, St. Lucie County and the City of Fort Pierce for the Oleander
Business Park sewer MSBU. Copies of the FPUA Board agenda item and
meeting minutes are attached. A brief history of the events leading to this
decision is contained in the attached agenda item memorandum. The Board
action to rescind the interlocal agreement was taken following our meeting with
you and Becky Padrick on September 7, 2001, where we discussed the
escalating costs of this project and FPUA's shrinking capital budget for
wastewater facilities. For the MSBU to move ahead, FPUA would have had to
contribute an additional $345,000, over and above the $80,000 already spent on
engineering fees. The most recent cost estimates and revenue projections for
this project indicate that it would take 22 to 30 years for us to recover our
investment on this project, which is not acceptable in the current economic
climate.
We have mailed a letter to all of the Oleander Business Park MSBU participants
asking if they are interested in receiving wastewater service via a pressure sewer
system financed by the individual property owners. We will work toward
connecting all interested parties to the pressure system in the most economical
manner possible. In many cases, the cost of connecting to the pressure system
will be lower than the assessments for the gravity sewer MSBU.
Fort Pierce Utilities Authority regrets having to take this action, but we have an
obligation to our customers to make sound economic decisions. Section 4 of the
interlocal agreement states that the agreement can only be "... terminated by the
mutual written agreement of all parties," We are requesting that you consult with
'-'
"WI
the County Attorney regarding the format for that written consent and forward the
appropriate document to the Board of County Commissioners for their approval.
Upon execution by the Chairman of your Board, the document will need to be
forwarded to FPUA and the City of Fort Pierce for signatures. .
We appreciate your assistance in this matter and assure you that FPUA will
continue to support all water and sewer MSBUs that are economically feasible.
Sincerely,
FORT PIERCE UTILITIES AUTHORITY

DISSOLUTION OF THE OLEANDER BUSINESS PARK MSBU
RECOMMENDATION:
Vote to rescind the interlocal agreement for Oleander Business Park MSBU.
SUMMARy/SUPPORTING INFORMATION:
A Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) for FPUA water and sewer service to
Oleander Business Park was initially pursued in early 1995. The MSBU was formally
created on December 19, 1995 with the Initial Public Hearing. At that time, the
MSBU consisted of 34 lots on 70 acres. The total project cost for water and sewer
was estimated at $587,600 and FPUA's total contribution was estimated to be
$257,600.
On July 9, 1996, the first interlocal agreement for the Oleander Business Park MSBU
was approved by the FPUA Board. An amended interlocal agreement was approved
at the July 23, 1996 Board meeting. By this time, the total project cost for water,
sewer and gas had risen to $1,305,000 and FPUA's share had increased to
$864,000. These increases were due to oversizing the system for future growth,
increasing the "extended service area", escalating construction costs and including
FPUA-funded gas construction costs. There was some discussion at this Board
meeting about forming a "Contribution in Aid of Construction Program" to recoup
some of the FPUA-funded construction costs over a 10-year period.
Several months later on February 11, 1998, the Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) process was initiated to obtain funding for the water distribution
system. The water system was pursued as a separate project and $480,000 in
CDBG funds were allocated to project. This project has been completed and the
final FPUA contribution to the water distribution system was about $300,000.
From the time that the CDBG project for constructing the water system originated,
the sewer MSBU project was pursued on a separate track. The sewer plan was
revised several times to reduce costs or because of changes to the MSBU boundary.
An "Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement" for the Oleander Business Park
Sewer MSBU was approved by the FPUA Board at the December 15, 2000 Board
'-"
......1
MEMORANDUM
Sewer MSBU was approved by the FPUA Board at the December 15, 2000 Board
meeting. This agreement, dated January 12, 1999, stipulated that FPUA would
contribute $100,000 to construction costs, pay the full assessments for all parcels in
the "Extended Service Area", and pay all engineering costs. Bids for the gravity
sewer project were opened on May 10, 2000 and all bids were rejected. A price to
complete this project was then solicited from FPUA's unit price contractor, Melvin
Bush Construction, Inc. The most recent total parcel assessment for the gravity
sewer MSBU project based on Bush's prices is $1,088,084. According to the
January 12, 1999 Interlocal Agreement, FPUA's portion of this assessment would be
approximately $345,000. This includes the $100,000 contribution to MSBU
construction costs and $245,000 for the "Extended Service Area" assessments. It
does not include the approximately $80,000 that FPUA has already contributed
toward engineering fees for the sewer project.
Because of escalating costs for this project and the unwillingness of parcel owners in
the "Extended Service Area" to contribute any funds toward sewer service to their
parcels, FPUA staff was forced to re-evaluate this project. Staff prepared an
estimate of sewer revenues and impact fees collected, based on the number of
customers expected to connect over time and their estimated sewer bills. This
projection indicated that it would take 22 years for FPUA to recoup the MSBU
investment, not counting interest lost on FPUA funds invested in the project. If the
total cost including lost interest is considered, the payback period would be in excess
of 30 years. It was decided by FPUA staff that a long-term investment of this
magnitude would not be in the best interest of FPUA or it's customers. This position
was stated in a meeting on September 7, 2001 between the FPUA Director,
Engineering Staff, the County Administrator, and the County MSBU Coordinator.
After that meeting, the County asked if FPUA would participate in a lower cost sewer
MSBU using grinder pumps and low-pressure force mains. County Staff indicated
that the $100,000 FPUA contribution would be necessary to make this option
affordable to the MSBU participants. An an-alysis of potential connections and sewer
revenues and impact fees for this option was performed by staff and it was
determined that it would take approximately nine years to break even, without
considering interest lost on invested FPUA funds. If lost interest is considered, the
payback period would be in excess of 13 years. Staff indicated to the County that
they were not in favor of investing an additional $100,000 in the pressure sewer
system with a long-term payback. The recent sewer rate increases were intended to
fund capital projects, but this type of expenditure with an extended payback period
does not seem to be justified.
In consideration of the history summarized above, Staff recommends rescinding the
January 12, 1999 I nterloca I Agreement with S1. Lucie County for the Oleander
Business Park Sewer MSBU and look at other methods of providing sewer service to
this area. Staff has prepared an estimate for a grinder pump system to serve
Freedom Plastics and is working with the County on contacting parcel owners within
the MSBU area to see if they are interested in connecting to a low pressure (grinder

pump) sewer system. If the sewer MSBU is abandoned, all connections to a
pressure sewer system in this area would be paid for by the customers.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Do not rescind the January 12, 1999 Interlocal Agreement and move forward
with the Oleander Business Park gravity sewer MSBU. This would require an
additional FPUA contribution of $345,000 toward construction. Based on
estimated sewer impact fees and revenues, it would take 22 years to recoup this :
. investment with "zero interest" on funds expended.
2. Rescind the January 12, 1999 Interlocal Agreement and direct Staff to prepare
necessary documents to move forward with a pressure sewer MSBU. This
would require a $100,000 contribution from FPUA to be affordable to the MSBU
participants. Based on estimated sewer impact fees and revenues, it would
take 9 years to recoup this investment with "zero interest" on funds expended.

1. A letter was received from Steven J. Doyle praising the response time and
efficient manner in which Chuck Wallace, Operations Foreman of the
WaterlWastewater Operations Department, handled a report of a possible
water main break.
Mr. Boudreaux presented a request to rescind an Interlocal Agreement with St. Lucie County
for the Oleander Business Park MSBU. This is an issue of longstanding. We participated in
an MSBU for a water system within this business park a couple of years ago, and it was
successful. For the last couple of years we've been trying to get a wastewater service MSBIJ
in process in the same area. The project is a lot more expensive than it started out to be.
There is a lot less interest now in the Oleander Business Park for sewer service. We have
met with County officials. Our Engineering Department has been in touch with the
businesses in that area that are interested in sewer service, and we have worked out a plan
whereby a low pressure sewer system can be installed, which will take care of the
businesses that need and want the service for a fraction of the cost of a gravity system. Most
of the cost of the low pressure sewer system will be born by the customers. It is less than
they would have had to pay under the MSBU. We did enter in to an interlocal agreement
with the County to do this. Now we want to rescind that agreement and move ahead with the
low pressure sewer system.
Motion by Mr. Siplin, seconded by Mayor Enns and unanimously carried to approve
rescindinq the Interlocal Aqreement with S1. Lucie County for the Oleander Business Park
MSBU for wastewater service.
Mr. Boudreaux advised the Board that every three years we go out for requests for proposals
for continuing consultants, and the time has come and gone for which we should have put
out requests for proposals for new water/wastewater engineering continuing contracts. We
are asking the Board to extend the contracts with the six existing companies for six months in
order to give us time to get a proposal on the street, review it, and make a selection for Board
approval. Mr. Haynes asked if we are interested in continuing the contracts for all six of
these firms. Mr. Boudreaux said yes. All of the firms listed have performed satisfactorily.
. Motion by Mr. Middleton. seconded by Mr. Siplin and unanimously carried that the extension
of six waster/wastewater/qas continuinq consultinq enqineerinq contracts be extended for six
months.
Mr. Boudreaux stated he has very little to report in the way of progress on the F1. Pierce
Repowering Project. The City Commission was going to take up the issues last night of
rezoning and site plan approval that were held over from a meeting about a month ago. We
decided to request that those items be pulled from the agenda, because we were concerned
that we didn't have the votes to get it approved. There is some indication we might have a
better chance with the new Commission next year.
Mr. David Mellert presented a request for approval of a Specific Authorization with CH2M Hill

Re: Oleander Business Park Sewer Improvements
Dear Mr. Pollard:
Over the past several months, the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority and St. Lucie County had
been pursuing finalization of the Oleander Business Park Sewer Municipal Services
Benefit Unit (MSBU). However, due to many unforeseen delays and the continuous rise in
construction costs, the interest in constructing the project as a gravity sewer collection
system has substantially decreased. Upon re-evaluating the project last September, the
County and Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) concluded that the sewer MSBU project
no longer has the level of participation necessary to move forward to the assessment and
construction phase. On NOv5Ff1t3or 20p2001, the FPUA Board voted to rescind the
Oleander Business Park MSBU In~cal Apreement with the County. That action
officially ended the MSBU project. \ "d.h ct} 0
In response to requests for sewer service from individual businesses in the Oleander
Business Park, FPUA is designing a conceptual pressure sewer system to serve interested
parties. With this type of system, each business connecting to the system would purchase
and install a small grinder pump station, and pay for a share of the force main.
Participation would be contingent on paying the force main cost to FPUA in advance of
construction. The force main would be located along Enterprise Road, DiGiorgio Road,
and Oleander Avenue within St. Lucie County right-of-way. The limits of the force main to
be constructed would be dependent on th~ level of participation.
The table on the following page shows the approximate costs that would be incurred by a
typical small business. Connection includes, a grinder pump station and all related items,
a private force main to the FPUA trunk main, your proportionate share of the trunk main,
and any FPUA Capital Improvement Charges.

This cost analysis is an estimate for a typical small commercial connection within the
Oleander Business Park. Larger businesses may incur higher cost than the above
estimate because actual water usage per day affects the size of the pump station, the
proportionate share of the trunk main, and the Capital Improvement Charges. The trunk
main cost per participant may also increase if there are few participants. If you an¡
interested in a firm estimate for your parcel or business, please call our office at 561-466-
1600 and talk to Jeremiah Johnson (Extension 3480) or Danny Retherford (Extension
3467).
We will need a letter of interest from you by December 20 so that design and permitting of
the force main can be completed. The deadline for paying force main assessments will be
February 1, 2002. Only businesses that have paid their force main assessments by that
date will be included in the project. Should you choose not to connect at this time, it may
prove to be more expensive to connect at a later date, depending on the location of the
force main relative to your property.
We look forward to working with you and the rest of the Oleander Business Park Owners
to complete this project in the most efficient and economical manor possible. If you have
any questions about this project, please contact Jeremiah Johnson or Danny Retherford at
the above number and extensions.
Sincerely,

South Florida Water Management District

Dear Mr. Carter:
St. Lucie County is experiencing a significant safety problem with the road edge
on both sides of Orange Avenue (SR68) between Kings Highway and the St.
Lucie/Okeechobee County Line (approximately 17 miles). The lane width on this road
is 10 feet and is heavily used by high speed agricultural trucks. The tires of these
trucks are causing a deterioration of the road edge, while creating a drop off which
is dangerous to traffic.
During the last several years we have lost ground in our efforts to maintain the
road edge. Both millings and shell rock are being used to fill the areas which have
been undermined, but we are unable to keep up with the deterioration. Funding for
the reconstruction of Orange Avenue is not anticipated within the next 5 years.
We are requesting that the South Florida Water Management District allow St.
Lucie County to construct a 2 foot paved shoulder on each side of Orange Avenue
between Kings Highway and Okeechobee County with an exemption from the normal
permitting process. With a South Florida Water Management District exemption, St.
Lucie County can take immediate action to eliminate the critical safety problem that
exists along Orange Avenue.
Attached is a typical section of the proposed 2 foot paved addition to Orange
Avenue. It should be noted that the existing road shoulder is hard packed and
practically impervious in its current state. Other road shoulder improvements are not
planned.

Ft. Pierce, FL 34982
Dear Mr. Wazny:
Subject: Orange A venue (SR 68) between Kings Highway and the St. Lucie
County/Okeechobee County Line
This is to acknowledge receipt of your request to add a two foot wide paved shoulder on each side
of Orange A venue (SR 68) between Kings Highway and the St. Lucie County/Okeechobee County
Line. No other work is authorized under this exemption.
The South Florida Water Management District (District) has reviewed the information submitted
and has determined that the proposed activity will have only minimal or insignificant individual or
cumulative adverse impacts on the water resources of the District. Therefore, based solely on the
documents submitted to the District on February 26, 2002, the project qualifies for an exemption
pursuant to subsection 373.406(6), Florida Statutes. Activities which qualify for this exemption
must be conducted and operated using appropriate best management practices and in a manner
which does not cause a water quality violation pursuant to Florida Administrative Code 62-302.
This letter does not relieve you from the responsibility of obtaining other permits (federal, state or
local) which may be required for the project.
The determination that this project qualifies as an exempt activity may be revoked if the installation
is substantially modified, if the basis for the exemption is determined to be materially incorrect, or
if the installation results in violation of state water quality standards. Any changes made in the
construction plans or location of the project may necessitate a permit from the District. Therefore,
you are advised to contact the District before beginning the project and before beginning any work
in wetlands which is not specifically described in the submittal.
The notice of determination that the project qualifies as an exempt activity constitutes final agency
action by the District unless a petition for administrative hearing is filed. Upon timely filing of a
petition, this Notice will not be effective until further Order of the District. Please be advised that
the District has not published a notice in the newspaper advising the public that it is determining

Board of County Commissioners
Community Development
Authorize a Public Hearing to consider applying for as tion 108 Loan for up to
$5,000,000 from the U.S, Department of Housing ând Urban Development
(HUD) and the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA).
The Florida Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) under
HUD allows eligible communities to apply for Section 108 loans up to $7,000,000
to benefit low and moderate income (LMI) persons for infrastructure improvements
and other CDBG eligible activities including economic development projects that
create new jobs. DCA requires two public hearings on this subjec.t. The first
Public Hearing allows staff sufficient time to fully investigate the feasibility of a
Section 108 loan and schedule a Community Advisory Task Force (CATF) for
public input into the process.
No funds are required at this time. If the Board of County Commissioners decides
to go ahead with a second public hearing to submit a Section 108 loan application
for a specific detailed and identified project, then a dedicated revenue stream
would need to be identified at that time to repay the loan.
The Board approved Resolution 95-065 that adopted a CDBG Citizen
Participation Plan that encourages active participation in the planning,
examination, and review of all CDBG applications. The plan requires holding at
least one public meeting to obtain the views of citizens on community
development needs.
Staff recommends that the Board Of County Commissioners hold a public
hearing on April 16, 2002, at 7:00 PM, or as soon thereafter as possible, on a
potential application for a Section 108 HUD loan. Staff will then be able to fully
investigate the feasibility of a Section 108 loan, hold a CA TF meeting to gain
public input, and then make appropriate recommendations to the Board on the
need for a second public hearing.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
County Commission
FROM:
Community Development Director
DATE:
March 22, 2002
SUBJECT:
Permission to advertise for a Public Hearing to consider applying for a
Section 108 Loan for up to $5,000,000 from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the State of Florida
Department of Community Affairs (DCA).
The Florida Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program under HUD
allows eligible communities to apply for Section 108 loans of up to $7,000,000 to benefit low and
moderate income persons for infrastructure improvements and other CDBG eligible activities
including economic development projects that create new jobs. DCA requires two public
hearings on this subject. The first Public Hearing will allow staff the time to fully investigate the
feasibility of a Section 108 loan and schedule a Community Advisory Task Force (CATF)
meeting for public input into the process.
The Economic Development Division is interested in investigating the feasibility of a Section 108
Loan to be used for infrastructure improvements that could generally be used as part of an
inducement package in attracting large employers who would create at least 200 new jobs and
invest a minimum of $25 million in real and personal property in St. Lucie County. The HUD
loans are issued once a year and are tied to the bond market interest rate, presently at a historic
low of 5.5%. These loans are very accommodating and the County would only need to pay
back what funds it actually spends. A dedicated revenue source would need to be identified to
service the loan over a payback period not to exceed 20 years. However, the new ad valorem
taxes of the business should offset that loan debt service. Such a loan would additionally allow
the County to pay for needed infrastructure improvements years ahead of schedule knowing
that the cost would be offset by the collection of new taxes.
The CDBG Section 108 Loan has similar requirements as the CDBG Economic Development
Grants. The Section 108 Loans require two public hearings and the process must conform to
our Citizen Participation Plan. The BOCC passed Resolution 95-065 on March 14, 1995, that
included a Citizen Participation Plan. The plan requires one Public Hearing to obtain the views
of citizens on community development needs and the establishment of a Citizen Advisory Task
Force (CA TF) to provide input relative to all phases of the project process. St. Lucie County has
a CATF in place. A public meeting of the CATF will be held after the first public hearing by the
BOCC. A Notice of a First Public Hearing along with Resolution 95-065 and the Citizen
Participation Plan are attached to this memo.
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners hold a public hearing on a potential
application for a Section 108 HUD loan. Staff will then be able to fully investigate the feasibility
of a Section 108 loan, hold a CA TF meeting to gain public input, identify potential projects for
use of the CDBG Section 108 Loan, and then make appropriate recommendations to the Board
on the need for a second public hearing.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners proposes to hold a public
hearing on:
Application for a Section 108 Loan for $5,000,000 from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
A PUBLIC HEARING on applying for a HUD Section 108 Loan will be held on Tuesday,
April 16, 2002, at 7:00 PM or as soon thereafter as possible, in the County
Commission Chambers, 3'd floor of the County Administration Annex, 2300
Virginia Avenue, Ft. Pierce, FL. HUD, along with the Department of Community Affairs
require that these loan funds must be used for one of the following purposes: '
1. To benefit low and moderate income persons; or
2. To aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; or
3. To meet other community development needs of recent origin having a
particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate
threat to the health or welfare of the community and where other financial
resources are not available to meet such needs.
Citizens or groups who have a particular interest in the areas where the proposed
Section 108 Loan is to be expended are actively encouraged to take part in the planning,
examination, and review of the proposed loan application. In order to provide affected
citizens and opportunity to submit their views concerning the community's economic and
community development needs, HUD requires that each local government applying for a
Section 108 Loan must develop a detailed Citizen Participation Plan, and this and all
subsequent public hearings are being conducted pursuant to that plan. All interested
citizens may be heard at the public hearing and/or may enter their views or comments in
writing with St. Lucie County before the date and time of the public hearing.
The Section 108 Loan would be guaranteed by the Florida Department of Community
Affairs (DCA), Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) annual
allocation, and St. Lucie County is eligible to apply for a loan not to exceed $7,000,000.
Additional information about the activities that can be carried out with the Section 108
Loan funds may be obtained at the public hearing or from Dennis Murphy, at St. Lucie
County Community Development Department, 2300 Virginia Avenue, Fort Pierce, FL
34982, telephone 772-462-1550, between the hours of 9:00AM and 4:00PM, Monday
through Friday.
In developing an application for submission to HUD through DCA, St. Lucie County must
plan to minimize displacement of persons as a result of planned CDBG activities. In
addition, St. Lucie County is required to develop a plan to assist displaced persons
should there be any.
The public hearing is being conducted in a handicapped accessible location. Any
handicapped person requiring an interpreter for the hearing impaired or the visually
impaired should contact Beth Ryder, Community Services Manager at least five calendar
days prior to the meeting and an interpreter will be provided. Any non-English speaking
person wishing to attend the public hearing should contact St. Lucie County at least five
""
-.I
calendar days prior to the meeting and a language interpreter may be provided. To
access a Telecommunication Device for Deaf Persons (TDD) please call 772-335-5546.
Any handicapped person requiring special accommodation at this meeting should
contact Richard Kottler, Jr. at least five calendar days prior to the meeting.

TASK 3:
DEVELOP ALTERNATIVE LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION VISIONS
Task 3 entails the creation of detailed alternative urban land use and transportation plans in the study area.
The existing Future Land Use Maps of the study area will form one land use alternative. Other alternatives will
be developed through community input. The transportation visions shall be selected through a process of
public involvement and technical analysis that will result in a 2025 Alternative Needs Plan for each land use
alternative that meets the adopted level of service standards of the local governments or demonstrates how
adopted level of service standards may be revised to better address quality of life through improved forms of
alternative transportation options without making major capital investments in expanding the County's roadway
network. One Objective of this analysis is to determine if there are ways other than "building more roads" to
address future growth and transportation needs.
As part of this final reports for this Task, the Consultant will recommend adjustments to the current future land
use map. or map series, based upon the proposed land use alternatives reviewed. If any alternative urban
land use plan proposes any adjustment to the existing urban service boundary, any such recommendation
shall be accompanied by a revised capital improvement program demonstrating how urban services will be
extended to these areas. Any recommendations to adjust the Urban Service Boundary shall provide for a
compact urban form.
LAND USE VISIONS
Three (3) unique urban land use visions shall be created by the consultant. The consultant shall create all
necessary public information and working quality-control graphics to develop and finalize all land use
alternatives. The consultant shall be responsible for preparing and translating technical information to readily
understandable graphics and support material for presentations to public, and steering committee. The
consultant shall present the results of the analysis of the various alternatives. Formal presentation will be
required pursuant to the Schedule of Meetings. The selected land use alternatives shall be based on the input
received through the Steering Committee, and public involvement.
Development of CommunitY Elements
The consultant will structure the alternative land use visions around the development of Community
Elements for the study area. Community Elements comprised of existing, modified and new land use
types within the study area will identify development potential within each Traffic Analysis Zone. The
Community Element model will enable the modification of TAZ data and travel characteristics
associated with alternative development patterns within the study area. This will reflect the land use
inventory and the public involvement program developed in previous tasks. The Community Elements
will help shape the alternative land use visions and will determine the ULAM allocation of
socioeconomic data for each alternative. The consultant will present the Community Elements model
to the Steering Committee prior to its application in the development of the land use visions.
Community Element types and associated characteristics will be documented in both narrative and
graphic (photos or images) form by the consultant as part of this Task.
. Sustainable Community Vision
The consultant shall construct FSUTMS and ULAM input files reflecting a sustainable community
vision for St. Lucie County. The public involvement plan described in Task 1.x shall be designed to
generate this vision. The public involvement plan shall be presented to the Steering Committee for
review and approval prior to commencement. The vision expressed within the resulting input files
shall be presented to the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners for review and approval.
,. ....
"
. Existing Future Land Use Maps
The consultant shall rely upon the FSUTMS and ULAM input files created by the St. Lucie
MPO as part of the development of their respective 2025 Long Range Transportation Plans
to reflect the existing Future Land Use Maps of St Lucie County. The existing Future Land
RFP-02-000
Page 11

'wi
Use Maps reflect a continuation of land use amendments for big box retailers, strip
commercial, and single use residential spread across the Urban Service District of St. Lucie
County. This will serve as the base land use scenario.
TRANSPORTATION VISIONS
The consultant shall develop a 2025 Alternative Needs Plan for each alternative land use vision that meets
travel demand at the County's adopted level of service standards. All proposed transportation facilities shall be
described in enough detail to develop generalized cost estimates For each alternative. Fatal flaws such as
roadway and corridor physical constraints, potential massive relocation of businesses; and residences
required by proposed projects, and the policy constraints of air quality legislation and maximum facility size will
be emphasized.
The consultant shall be responsible for coding, editing, and debugging the transportation network data to
support the FSUTMS for all network alternatives. FSUTMS along with other suitable analytical methods will be
used to determine the transportation demands for the various highway and non-highway transportation system
alternatives for each alternative land use plan. Appropriate data will be imported into a database system where
the majority of the evaluation will take place.
The consultant shall also create all necessary public information and working quality-control graphics to
develop and finalize all system alternatives. The consultant shall be responsible for preparing and translating
technical information to readily understandable graphics and support material for presentations to the Project
Partners, public, and steering committee. The consultant shall present the results of the analysis of the various
alternatives. Formal presentation will be required pursuant to the Schedule of Meetings. If the transportation
system alternatives do not provide the level of service required by local governments, additional alternatives
generation shall be conducted.
In creating the 2025 Alternative Needs Plan for each land use alternative, the consultant shall first perform an
evaluation of each alternative land use vision against the existing plus committed (E+C) transportation network
(the "base" network, see Network 1 below). Following this evaluation, the consultant will develop an alternative
transportation network for each alternative land use vision that supports the land use vision and seeks to
achieve the level of service standards adopted by the County as well as maximizing any transportation system
performance measures developed through the public participation process. As such, the consultant will
develop up to four separate transportation system plans for evaluation in conjunction with the alternative land
use visions
A screening process similar to those employed through the St. Lucie MPO's Congestion Management System
will be used to identify transportation projects or strategies that make sense given the land use and
transportation system characteristics. Appropriate projects and strategies will be matched with each alternative
land use vision to form a system plan for network coding and testing. The consultant will then perform
FSUTMS model runs and other analyses to quantify the level of service results and assess other performance
indicators.
Each alternative vision will have a corresponding transportation system plan developed and evaluated. A 2025
Needs Plan for the study area will be developed from the analysis of the alternatives. Additional testing may be
performed for the 2025 Needs Plan based on the combination of transportation projects and Community
Elements chosen. This additional testing will help identify project priorities and timing of system improvements.
· NETWORK 1: Existing Transportation System ("Base Case" Alternative)
"
The Existing-Plus-Committed (E+C) Network will be developed by the consultant by adding all
projects listed for construction in the MPO's most recent Transportation Improvement Program to the
1996 base network. The most recent transportation related Capital Improvement Programs shall also
be included in the E+C Network. The consultant shall also review the MPO's Transit Development
Plans and the Transportation Disadvantaged Service Plans and include capital and operating projects
RFP-02-000
Page 12

targeted for the five year period. Essentially, all projects for which funding has been identified will be
included in the E+C Network.
The consultant shall evaluate a 2025 trip table with the E+C Network to determine service deficiencies
for each land use alternative. Service deficiencies as measured against the adopted LOS standards
of local governments will form the basis of recommended network alternatives to be developed.
Each of the following example networks are candidates for development and testing as part of the
alternative land use visions; however, the specific networks to be tested depend on the alternative
land use visions developed and concurrence by the Study Partners. Up to four additional networks
beyond the E+C "base" network will be developed that reflect alternative land use visions and tested
to select a preferred 2025 Needs Plan For the study area.
· NETWORK 2: TDM Measures and Low-Cost Transit Improvements
Develop Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and low-cost pedestrian. bicycle, transit, and
roadway projects for each alternative land use plan. The use of Intelligent Transportation System
applications for these types of projects shall he considered. This alternative shall be developed before
higher cost transit or roadway projects are developed The analysis of this alternative will identify the
mode shift potential and the degree to which the community's multimodal, social, and environmental
objectives can be achieved through these types of relatively low cost/low impact actions.
Additional case studies, research, and professional methods shall be employed to further define the
mode split potential of TDM measures and low-cost transit, pedestrian, and bicycle projects. All
assumptions must be fully disclosed and professionally accepted for credits to be provided for any
mode split claims.
The development of the system alternatives for TDM measures and low-cost transit projects shall also
contain an analysis of the long term impacts of the allowances granted by Florida Statute and the
Florida Administrative Code for transportation concurrency.
· NETWORK 3: High-Cost Transit Improvements ("Full Build-out Transit! TDM
Alternative)
Develop high-cost transit improvements, low-cost pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and roadway projects,
and TDM measures (Full Build-out TransitfTDM Alternative) for each land use alternative. The use of
Intelligent Transportation System applications for these types of projects shall be considered. Network
3 builds on Network 2 by developing higher-cost transit actions, along with the lower-cost actions
(analyzed in Network 2). The analysis of this network will determine the ability of transit to meet the
transportation deficiencies identified in the model and advance the goals of the County.
. NETWORK 4: Full Build-out Highway (and Full Build-Out Transit! TDM Alternative
Develop a "Full Build-out Highway Alternative" in conjunction with the "Full Build-our TransitfTDM
Alternative" for the future land use plan. The use of Intelligent Transportation System applications for
these types of projects shall be considered. Significant highway needs may exist even after all high
and low-cost pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and roadway mprovements and TDM measures have been
considered in Networks 2 & 3.
"
After the Full Build-out TransitfTDM Alternative has been developed (Network 3), it will be necessary
to determine what additional projects (e.g., highway) would be needed to meet the transportation
system needs. For example, the model will likely continue to show deficiencies on the highway
network after all possible transit and TDM improvements arc investigated. The deficiencies could be
alleviated, through the model, with highway modifications.
The consultant will meet with the Steering Committee to review the future alternatives for clarity,

completeness, and presentation format. The consultant will make revisions as directed.
The consultant shall aUend at least three community meetings to gather input on the 2025 Alternative
Transportation Needs Plan. These presentations by the consultant will have information in maps, graphics,
figures, and tabular format that can be readily understood by the public. The consultant will provide a summary
of the key issues at each meeting.
Final Report (to be presented as part of Task 5)
The final report will document the entire process of developing the various plans with appropriate tables and
graphics. A database will be provided showing projects that were used for each alternative and will form the
basis for the generalized cost estimates associated with each alternative. The report will describe in detail and
with sufficient graphics the 2025 Alternative Transportation Needs Plan for each alternative land use plan.
The final product of this task shall include complete coded, edited, and debugged FSUTMS and ULAM files for
the alternative land use and transportation visions.
TASK 4:
ANAL VZE LONG TERM COSTS AND BENEFITS OF ALTERNATIVE LAND USE AND
TRANSPORTATION VISION
The visions created in Task 3 will be analyzed with the Florida Standard Urban Transportation Model Structure
as part of Task 4. Other qualitative and quantitative issues will also be analyzed. The following is a description
of the work products that will result from or be utilized by this project. Criteria to finalize the alternative land use
plans will also be developed and will contain both qualitative and quantitative comparative analyses of the
systems to rank policy impacts. cost effectiveness, environmental, social, community, and transportation
impacts. A preferred land use and transportation vision is the result of this task.
Analysis of Alternative Land Use and Transportation Plans
The following issues shall be qualitatively or quantitatively analyzed for each land use and transportation vision
as appropriate. An analysis of each alternative future land use plan for a predetermined number of altemative
transportation networks shall be performed for the 2025 horizon using control total population estimates
provided by the County. The results of these efforts will be used in this project for comparison with existing
conditions.
Rioht-of-Wav - A generalized right-of-way map for each network configuration delineating both the available
and future right-of-way needs. This will be at a planning level of analysis indicating known right-of-way
constraints and corridors where sufficient right-of-way is known to exist for additional travel lanes. The design
requirements for identification of new right-of-way needs at intersections is not part of this study.
Community Impacts - Values of the community, as defined by the County Commission, shall be considered in
the development of the 2025 Alternative Needs Plan. A consensus on such values shall be sought as part of
the Community Meetings and Public Involvement Plan. Explicit consideration of the community values shall
be presented in the 2025 Alternative Needs Plan and shall include such issues as maximum lanes, roadway
design, buffers, transportation funding, travel options, property tax base and others. The lack of consensus on
community values shall be noted. Community values are expected to vary throughout the study area.
Environmental Impacts - The consultant shall analyze from a general order of magnitude both primary and
secondary impacts. Direct or primary impacts include such issues as potential disruption of water flows,
destruction of wetlands, noise and air. Secondary or indirect impacts are caused by an action later in time or
farther removed in distance but are reasonably foreseeable as a result of the transportation project or resulting
induced development.

include estimated costs of each alternative for construction, right-of-way, relocation and business damages,
operation, maintenance, and rehabilitation. Total transportation system costs will be reviewed for each
alternative using life cycle cost principles. The methodology and assumptions used shall be documented. A list
of inconsistencies of the needs plan with the transportation plans of the County shall be provided.
Level of Service The consultant will utilize FSUTMS, ULAM and other analytical tools to determine the
effectiveness of the various transportation alternatives in meeting the goals and objectives of the County's
Comprehensive Plans. FSUTMS will be used to determine the transportation demands to various
transportation alternatives. Appropriate data will be imported into a database system where the majority of the
evaluation will take place. Each alternative will review land use plans for constrained or over capacity
corridors. Iterations between FSUTMS and ULAM shall be performed to converge locations of constrained
roadways with future development. The consultant is to recognize that the County has a substantial number of
roads that are built out to the maximum level or are otherwise constrained. These constrained corridors shall
be identified and coordinated with FDOT reports on constrained corridors. The level of service analysis shall
form the basis for the recommended revisions to the local government's future land use maps, long range
transportation needs and capital improvement elements for the selected alternative urban land use vision.
TASK 5
SELECT ALTERNATIVE URBAN LAND USE PLANI FINAL REPORT
Based upon the analysis of existing conditions, alternative urban land use and transportation plans, and public
input the consultant shall recommend a preferred alternative future urban land use and transportation plan for
the project area. This recommend alternative shall be presented in the form of a final report to the County
Commission and shall include specific recommended amendments (if any) to the County Comprehensive
Plan, along with supporting documentation as to why the recommended changes should be made.
Building upon the analysis of Comprehensive Plan programs for infill and redevelopment, the consultant will
develop specific proposals for goals, objectives, and policies that will implement the preferred alternative
urban land use and transportation vision. Programs that may be considered shall include but not be limited to
transfer or purchase of development rights, overlay land use designations, and land banks. A summary of the
possible programs to be reviewed, summarized, and recommended by the Consultant are provided below.
Overlav Land Use Desianations - Policies that provide alternative urban land use designations in specific
areas of the county that would allow altemative develop potential. The designations would be consistent with
all other policies of the Comprehensive Plan including capital programming and land use compatibility
requirements.
Transfer/Purchase of Development Riahts: A program in the purchase or transfer of development rights that
can be utilized by both the public and private sector. As a public sector tool, local governments could purchase
all or portions of the development rights on property inconsistent with the desired community vision and then
resell those rights to developers who wish to develop at greater densities or intensities elsewhere in the
jurisdiction pursuant to a duly adopted land use plan. When used by the private sector, the transfer or
purchase of development rights would be akin to the purchase of real property in today's real estate market.
Local governments would develop transfer and receiving zones for these development rights. The private
sector would be allowed to act on their own self-interests within these geographic confines, subject, of course,
to land use compatibility and other requirements of the County's Comprehensive Plan and Land Development
Regulations.
.'
<
Land Bank- Managed by local governments, a land bank allows the County to fund land acquisition as a
means to revise the land use designation on small parcels of land that otherwise would not be acquired by the
private sector and developed to their highest and best use. Once a contiguous group of small parcels are
acquired, they can be repackaged by the local government and sold on the market for the desired use. A
example may be a series of residential lots in a vast single-use residential plat that are acquired and resold for
a neighborhood commercial center or alternatively for a neighborhood school.

Modifications to the existina urban service boundarv. If it is demonstrated through the project that the existing
urban service boundary lines either provides to much or to little of an option to meet future growth needs in the
community, and that those growth needs cannot be adequately addressed by one or more of the alternatives
outlined above consistent with the approved community vision for the study area, the consultant is to provide
for reasonable recommended amendments to the existing urban service boundary that would either expand of
contract the boundary line
The Final Report containing information related to all aspects of the study as required by this scope shall
contain a description of each data source, its reliability, accuracy, and relevance to the study's objectives. The
proposed methodology to develop a vacant and redevelopable land inventory shall be describe in detail all
data inputs, outputs, and relationships. Assumptions shall be disclosed along with justifications for each. GIS
maps shall be produced reflecting environmentally sensitive lands, vacant acreage, land with redevelopment
potential, the current adopted future land use designations and any recommended future land use designation
amendments.
In addition, the final report is to document the entire process of developing the various plans with appropriate
tables and graphics. A database is to be provided showing projects that were used for each alternative and the
generalized cost estimates associated with each alternative. The report will describe in detail and with
sufficient graphics the 2025 Alternative Transportation Needs Plan for each alternative land use plan.
Finally, the report shall fully detail the analysis of existing conditions, alternative land use and transportation
plans, market feasibility, and public input resulting from the analysis of the long term costs and benefits of the
alternative land use and transportation visions. The report will have information in maps, graphics, figures,
and tabular format that can be readily understood by the public and shall contain a summary public comments
received throughout the study.
Prior to the issuance of the Final Report the consultant will meet with the Steering Committee to review the;
final report for clarity, completeness, and presentation format. The consultant will make revisions as directed.

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Heather Young, Assistant County Attorney
C.A. NO: 02-443
DATE: March 26, 2002
SUBJECT: B & E Houck Enterprises, Inc. - Proposed Sublease Agreement with S.S.T. Tire
Service, Inc., Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement, and Consent to
Leasehold Mortgage
BACKGROUND:
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of a proposed sublease agreement between B & E
Houck Enterprises, Inc., and S.S. T. Tire Service, Inc. for a hangar lease. The sublessee's initial plan
is to use the hangar for aircraft storage, but the sublease also permits sales and maintenance of
aircraft. The hangar will not be used for tire sales or services. The sublease will run concurrently
with the remainder of the Houck fixed base operator lease. As the proposed lease term exceeds
twelve months, consent to the sublease by the Board of County Commissioners is required before
the parties may proceed. The sublessee has also submitted the attached Non-Disturbance and
Attornment Agreement which provides protection for the sublessee in the event Houck's lease is
terminated early. In such event, the replacement fixed base operator would be required to honor the
sublease. The sublessee would also recognize the County and any subsequent replacement fixed
base operator as the successor sublessee while at the same time agreeing not to hold the County
liable for any claims against Houck. The sublessee intends to obtain a mortgage to finance the
project. As the County's consent for any leasehold mortgage and collateral assignment ofleasehold
interest is required under the terms of the lease vrith Houck, the sublessee is also requesting approval
of the attached Consent to Leasehold Mortgage and Collateral Assignment of Leasehold Interest.
The referenced documents have been reviewed and appear acceptable.
RECOMMENDA nON/CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners consent to the proposed sublease
agreement between B & E Houck Enterprises, Inc., and S.S.T. Tire Service, Inc. Staff further
recommends the Board approve the proposed Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement and
Consent to Leasehold Mortgage, and authorize the chairman to execute the documents.

...,,/
SECTION XIII. SUBLESSOR'S CONSENT AND SUBLESSEE'S LIABILITY
REQUIRED FOR ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE.
SUBLESSEE shall not assign this Sublease or any interest therein or sublet the
Demised Premises or any part thereof or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto or
allow any person other than the SUBLESSEE and its agents and employees to occupy
or use the Demised Premises or any part of them without first obtaining
SUBLESSOR'S and St. Lucie County's written consent thereto. SUBLESSOR
expressly covenants that such consent shall not be unreasonably or arbitrarily refused.
SUBLESSOR'S consent to one assignment, sublease or use shall not be consent to any
subsequent assignment or sublease, or occupancy or use by another person. Any
unauthorized assignment or sublease shall be void and shall terminate this Sublease at
SUBLESSOR'S option. SUBLESSEE'S interest in this Sublease is not assignable by
operation of law without SUBLESSOR'S written consent.
Any assignment or sublease shall be made expressly subject to all of the terms,
conditions and limitations contained in this Sublease and the County Lease and
SUBLESSEE shall continue to be liable and responsible for due performance of all the
terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease.
SUBLESSOR recognizes that SUBLESSEE intends to operate the
improvements now or hereafter located on the Demised Premises as a hangar at the St.
Lucie County Airport in which are stored for a rental fee various aircraft of third
parties and SUBLESSEE'S intent to continue such activities on Demised Premises,
which is a material inducement for SUBLESSEE in entering into this Sublease.
Accordingly, SUBLESSOR hereby consents and agrees that SUBLESSEE may
continue to rent, lease and otherwise allow third parties to store aircraft owned by
them in such improvements on the Demised Premises for a rental fee, as agreed upon
between such third party without the written consent of the SUBLESSOR or St.
Lucie County.
If the interest of SUBLESSOR shall be transferred involuntarily, or by reason
of foreclosure or other proceedings for enforcement of any mortgage on the Demised
Premises, SUBLESSEE shall be bound to such transferee for the balance of the term
hereof remaining with the same force and effect as if the transferee were the
SUBLESSOR under this Sublease.
SUBLESSEE does hereby agree to attorn to the transferee including the
mortgagee under any such mortgage, as its SUBLESSOR. Said attornment shall be
effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments upon the
transferee succeeding to the interest of the SUBLESSOR under this Sublease..
SUBLESSEE agrees, however, that if a written attornment agreement consistent with
this provision is required by the transferee acquiring SUBLESSOR'S interest in this
Sublease or by any lender of the transferee, the SUBLESSEE will execute,
acknowledge and deliver same within ten (10) days following a request by
SUBLESSOR or its transferee to SUBLESSEE. In the event SUBLESSEE fails, refuses
-6-
~
""'"
or neglects to timely do so, SUBLESSOR may, in addition to other remedies for
breach hereunder, execute, acknowledge and deliver the same as the agent or attorney-
in-fact of SUBLESSEE and SUBLESSEE hereby irrevocably constitutes SUBLESSOR
as its attorney-in-fact for this purpose.
The respective rights and obligations of SUBLESSEE and the transferee upon
such attornment to the extent of the then-remaining balance of the term of this
Sublease and any such extensions and renewals shall be and are the same as set forth
herein. In the event of such transfer of SUBLESSOR'S interest, SUBLESSOR shall be
released and relieved from all liability and responsibility hereafter accruing to
SUBLESSEE under this Sublease or otherwise and SUBLESSOR'S successor or assign,
by acceptance of rent from SUBLESSEE hereunder, shall become liable and
responsible to SUBLESSEE in respect to all obligations of SUBLESSOR under this
Agreement.
SECTION XIV. RIGHT TO MORTGAGE AND RIGHT TO GROUND
LEASE.
This Sublease and all the rights of SUBLESSEE hereunder are and shall be
subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgage(s) hereinafter placed on the
Demised Premises or any part thereof and to any and all renewals, modifications,
consolidations, replacements, extensions or substitutions of any such mortgage(s)
provided, nevertheless, each or all of such mortgages shall contain a provision or shall
enter into a separate non-disturbance agreement for the benefit of SUBLESSEE to the
effect that so long as the SUBLESSEE is not in default under this Sublease, or any
renewal or extension thereof, no foreclosure of the lien of said mortgage or any other
proceeding in respect thereof shall divest, impair, modify, abrogate or otherwise
adversely affect any interest or rights whatsoever of the SUBLESSEE under this
Sublease. The subordination provision shall also apply to any assignment of its lease
agreement, which SUBLESSOR may desire to enter into before or after the date of
this Sublease.
Such subordination shall be automatic without the execution of any further
subordination agreement by SUBLESSEE. If a written subordination agreement
consistent with this provision is required by a mortgagee or a party to a ground lease,
SUBLESSEE agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver same and in the event of
failure to do so SUBLESSOR may, in addition to other remedies for breach of
covenant hereunder, execute, acknowledge, and deliver the same as the agent or
attorney-in-fact of SUBLESSEE and SUBLESSEE hereby irrevocably constitutes
SUBLESSOR as its attorney-in-fact for this purpose.
Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, it is understood
and agreed that in the event that a mortgagee or assignee to the ground lease of the
Demised Premises acquired title thereto, either through foreclosure or through a deed
in lieu of foreclosure or through default under the ground lease, such mortgagee shall
-7-
~
"'-"
not be required to refund any advance sums paid to the SUBLESSOR unless the
mortgagee or assignee receives such prepaid sums.
SUBLESSEE further agrees upon ten (10) days prior written request by
SUBLESSOR to deliver to SUBLESSOR a statement in writing certifying that the
Sublease is unmodified and in full force and effect or, in the alternative, if there have
been modifications that the Lease, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating
the modificatipns, the dates to which the rent and other charges have been paid and
that SUBLESSOR is not in default under any provisions of the Sublease or, if default,
the nature of such default in detail.
SECTION XV. SUBLESSEE'S DEFAULT.
This Sublease is subject to SUBLESSEE's performance of the payments,

PRESENTED BY:
Paul Phillips
TO: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
SUBMITTED BY: Airport
SUBJECT: Approve the $1,000 capital request to purchase and replace the commercial grade
garbage disposal for the USDA located in the Federal Inspection Station at St. Lucie County
International Airport.
BACKGROUND: The USDA, located in the Federal Inspection Station at the Airport, has requested
the replacement of the commercial grade garbage disposal in the USDA laboratory sink. Since the
disposal has ceased working, all international waste is being stored for later incineration by the
Airport. Replacing this unit will significantly decrease the Airport costs by allowing USDA to
immediately dispose of seized items rather than storing them and then running the incinerator.
FUNDS AVAILABLE IN ACCT#: Funds of $1,000 are available in the Airport Building
Maintenance Account (140-9910-599330-800)
PREVIOUS ACTION: N/A
RECOMMENDATION: As the building housing USDA belongs to the Airport, Staff recommends
that the Board approve the replacement of the disposal unit to facilitate the services of the USDA
and reduce the maintenance costs of operating the incinerator.

Dear Mr. Phillips
I am writing to request replacement of the commercial grade garbage disposal in the USDA laboratory
sink. As you know the disposal ceased \NOrking CNer a year ago and we have since been storing all
international waste for later incineration by the county. Since then, the inoperable disposal has also
gotten the point where it ceases to even \NOrk as a liquid drain, rendering our laboratory sink useless.
We do require a sink to perform normal functions such as specimen preparation for 10 of foreign pests
entering through our local ports and dissection of fruit and plant material while inspecting for foreign
pests. It is the sole sink in our office area.
This presents several problems which could be alleÝiated if we had a functional disposal. The small
amount of freezer space we have fills up quickly and dictates more frequent incinerations than v.ould
otherwise be necessary if we could effectively dispose of the majority of the organic foreign waste we
seize.
Experience has shown a commercial grade disposal is required, as a household type will not handle
the amount or type of waste we dispose of this way. I believe the estimate to replace the disposal with
one of the type currently here was in the 900-1000 dollar range? This is actually cheaper than the type
in place at our other Foreign Inspection Stations, but I feel for the volume of garbage we handle here it
\NOuld be adequate.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to visit or call me at 561-464-1038.
Sincerely,
~/

SUBMITTED BY(DEPT): Airport
PRESENTED BY: Paul Phillips, Director
SUBJECT: Approve an adjustment to budgeted equipment purchases to allow for the purchase of
one (1) 15 foot Rhino Flex Wing Rotary Mower at a cost of $10,750.00
BACKGROUND: The Airport currently does not have the required equipment to efficiently maintain the
airport safety areas and other grassed areas of the airport. This Fiscal Year, the purchase of a 10' Bush Mower
at a cost of $7,000 and a Backhoe Large Bucket Attachment at a cost of $5,000 was approved. By combining
the monies approved for these two purchases we will forego the large bucket this year and purchase the larger
and more efficient 15' Rhino Flex Wing Mower at a cost of 10,750.00.
FUNDS AVAIL: Funds of $7,000 (10' Brùsh Mower) and $5,000 (Backhoe Large Bucket Attachment)
are available in the Airport Equipment Account (140-4220-564000-400).
PREVIOUS ACTION: N/A
RECOMMENDATION: '. Staff recommends that the Board approve the $5,000 increase to the $7,000
budgeted equipment purchase for the $10,750 purchase of the 15' Rhino Flex Wing Mower to more efficiently
maintain airfield safety areas and large fields.
