Lucie County International Airport BACKGROUND: At previous budget meetings and discussions on priorities for state legislative appropriations funding, Airport staff was directed to look at selling properties in order to fund the acquisition of a 29 acre parcel south of the new runway. Airport staff had previously provided the Board with an exhibit showing four parcels at the northwest corner of US 1 and 25th Street and two parcels within the Airport Industrial Park, which are proposed to be sold. Two appraisals were completed on these parcels, the value of which range from a total of $685,000 to $1,305,000 depending on the appraisal. In addition, staff had requested funding for the 29 acre parcel from the Florida Department of Transportation in FY 2009. Unfortunately, the approved work plan has been published and no new FOOT grant funding is available for this land acquisition. In order to secure the funding needed, additional land other than the six parcels noted above, must be sold. This request is to get direction from the Board on proceeding with the appraisal process on the parcels located between US1 and Ridgehaven Road. There are 13 parcels in this area with a total acreage of 6.48 acres. All of these parcels were purchased for noise mitigation purposes and were previously rezoned to CG, Commercial General.

BACKGROUND: The electrical vault that powers the lighting, signs and navigational equipment on the airfield needs to be upgraded to add capacity and replace existing regulators. This will allow the expansion for future electrical needs and provide improved reliability for airfield electrical facilities. In September 2007, the Board accepted a Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT) Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) grant and approved Resolution 07-273 for FOOT to fund 80%, or $167,525, and a local match of $41,881 for a total project cost of $209,406. In November 2007, the Board accepted Budget Resolution 07-342 establishing the funding account for this project.

Lucie County International Airport BACKGROUND: In August 2005, the former Shrimp Culture site, located at the southeast corner of Indrio Road and Taylor Dairy Road on Airport property, was vacated. The former tenant left behind environmental issues that had to be addressed. The property was put out to bid in April and May 2007. No responses were received. In December, Airport staff was contacted by the Chief Operating Officer of SeaArk, who wanted to tour the site and begin discussions on leasing the property. Given this interest, Airport staff contacted the Florida Department of Transportation representative to clarify whether the Airport needed to go out to bid on this parcel again, or whether direct negotiations could occur. Since grants are received from the FOOT, the Airport is required to follow the grant requirements for any property leased. FOOT advised that since the property had gone out to bid unsuccessfully prior to this and the Airport was going to update the appraisal done on the property and require this as the lease rate, no additional competitive bid process was required. The Federal Aviation Administration had previously stated that they do not require a competitive bid process for leasing land, although it is recommended, as long as the fair market value is used for the lease rate. This request is to get Board approval to enter into direct lease negotiations with SeaArk for the former Shrimp Culture site.

Gouin SUBJECT: Funding for the Public Safety's Animal Registration Licensing Program. BACKGROUND: On April 3, 2007, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance #07- 010, which requires the registration of dogs and cats over the age of four months as well registration of dog and cat breeders in the unincorporated areas of St. Lucie County. Also on April 3, 2007, the Board of County Commissioners approved Resolution #07-077 to establish a fee schedule for Animal and Breeder Registrations. At the time when Ordinance #07-010 and Resolution #07-077 were proposed, Public Safety did not know the total amount of expenditures that would be incurred. The revenues were budgeted, but the expenditures were not. When both, the Ordinance and Resolution, passed on April 3, 2007, the Animal Registration Licensing Program became effective as of 10101/2007 and began incurring expenses. The Public Safety's Animal Control Division has contracted with PetData, Inc. for the collection and remittance of fees to the County, and with Boomerang Tags for the purchase of the tags. Now, funds need to be moved into place so the expenses from both vendors can be paid. Currently, the funding for the animal registration expenses is: $5,000 in #102- 9910-599100-800 (Contingency) and $42,400 in #102-9910-599310-800 (Adjustment Reserves). Budget Amendment #BA08-010 will move the $47,400 out of Contingency and Adjustment Reserves, and into the Other Contractual Services and Operating Supplies accounts. FUNDS AVAILABLE: With the approval of #BA08-01 0, the funds will be made available: $10,000 in #102-6240-534000-600 (Other Contractual Services) and $347,400 in #102-6240-552000-600 (Operating Supplies). PREVIOUS ACTION: The Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance #07-010 (Animal Registration) and Resolution #07-077 (Establishing a fee schedule) on April 3, 2007.

BACKGROUND: St. Lucie County has an agreement with Professional Sports Camps, Inc. for use of athletic fields at Lawnwood Sports Complex and Lakewood Park Regional Park. We were contacted by them recently and asked if we could construct a batting cage with two tunnels, if they provided the funding. The County would then give them credit toward their user fees in the same amount to be spread over the next three years. The department got estimates for the project and the contractor has agreed to send us that amount. Specifically, the amount is $27,012 for the construction of a two-tunnel batting cage at Lakewood Park Regional Park. This amount would be credited back to Professional Sports over a 3-year period beginning in 2008 at the established rates. Because this project was not included in the 2007-08 budget, the Board is asked to approve an agreement authorizing the project, CIP #08-122, and Budget Resolution #08-049 to accept and allocate the funding.

On January 17, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners approved several amendments related to the undeveloped portion of the Indrio Crossings Shopping Center project that allowed for the approval of the subject mixed use project.

The applicants have provided the attached documentation stating their reasons for requiring an extension. According to documents they have provided delays have occurred in order to redesign and scale back the commercial portion of the project to reduce the required parking spaces because of the inability to enter into a cross parking agreement with the adjacent property owner. Changed market conditions for the residential portion of the project are also cited as a reason. A major site plan modification for the commercial portion of the project is currently under review by staff and will be forwarded to the Board for approval. N/A On January 17, 2006, the Board granted Indrio Crossings - Phase II Major Site Plan approval through Resolution No. 06-006, with ten limiting conditions: rezoned 9.66 acres of the 14.23 parcel site to the RM-9 (Residential, Medium - 9 dulac) Zoning District through Resolution No. 06-005, and adopted a small scale future land use amendment that changed 9.66 acres of the 14.23 acre parcel from COM (Commercial) to RM (Residential Medium) through Ordinance No. 06-007.

Richard A. Bouchard, P.E. Erosion District Manager TO: ST. LUCIE COUNTY EROSION DISTRICT SUBJECT: South County Dune Restoration - Suspension of Work Authorization NO.9 with Coastal Tech for the determination of an appropriate funding plan along with services for the permitting, design and construction oversight-due to no immediate need and other concerns as identified in the attached back-up memo. BACKGROUND: Residents and Condominium Association's along the southern (3 to 5 miles) shoreline of the County are very concerned about diminished dune protection and increased exposure of their upland property and structures to the ocean. As a result, the President's Council of South Hutchinson Island adopted a resolution on May 23rd requesting S1. Lucie County to undertake t~e necessary actions to provide for dune maintenance and ultimately beach restoration. On July 24,2007 the Board approved a contract with Coastal Tech to pursue the development of a potential interim dune restoration project to offset future dune erosion until a larger scale beach restoration project may be developed with the state and federal government which is tentatively scheduled to commence in November 2009. During a meeting to further define the project with County staff and Coastal Tech, a representative from the President's Council conveyed their desire for a recurring maintenance program managed by the County. In addition FDEP advised County staff on November 2151 that State funds were available to the County to assist with dune restoration activities subject to construction being completed by March 1, 2008. As depicted in the attached report from Michael Walther of Coastal Tech, the restored dune has not significantly eroded since the County restored dunes after the 2004 hurricanes; Coastal Tech and County staff concur that dune restoration is not immediately needed. Substantial effort has been made by the County to provide assistance should another emergency occur similar to the 2004 hurricane season such as pre-approving upland sand sources for dune restoration and preparation of a permit application ready for submittal to FDEP. In that there is no significant dune erosion since the 2004 emergency restoration, this action is to request Board concurrence that staff suspends work towards a potential interim dune restoration project on privately owned property. FUNDS: Funds were previously approved for these services in the following account: $251,269 in Account No. 184-3710-531000-36203; Erosion District (South Hutchinson Island Beaches). PREVIOUS ACTION: On July 24,2007: The Board approved a contract with Coastal Tech to pursue the development of a potential interim dune restoration project to offset future dune erosion.

LUCIE COUNTY EROSION DISTRICT PRESENTED BY: ~ SUBMITTED BY (DEPT): PUBLIC WORKS - EROSION 3710 Roberta Breene Grants Resource Developer SUBJECT: Artificial Reef Grant Program: Approval to submit an artificial reef construction funding application for $10,000 under the FishAmerica Foundation Conservation Grant program, BACKGROUND: The Fish America Foundation is accepting grant applications for 2008. The maximum award amount is $10,000. The grant will help fund the cost of deploying donated reef materials, most likely two donated barges, to the Offshore Artificial Reef site. These deployments are consistent with FWC's recommendation to increase the profile and vertical complexity of the site, and consistent with an environmental goal of diverting materials from landfill or other disposal. It is anticipated that, later in the year, 10 barges of additional donated concrete materials will be placed on top of the proposed deployment. FUNDS: There is no required match for these funds. However, the County will provide in-kind management/oversight services and will provide the cost of the pre- and post-deployment dives. The $9,085 cost of the pre- and post deployment dives will be paid for from Account No. 184-3710- 56300'5-39003, Erosion Operation Fund Conservation - Artificial Reefs. PREVIOUS ACTION: On November 22, 2005, the BOCC approved the selection of Dr. Lee E. Harris as an Artificial Reef Consultant. On June 3, 2007, the BOCC accepted the donation of two derelict barges as artificial reef material. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Erosion District Board approval to submit a grant application in the amount of $10,000 to the FishAmerica Foundation to assist in the deployment of reef materials to the Offshore Artificial Reef.
