PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT • ADMINISTRATION e . • MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Don West, Public Works Director ' DATE: April 14, 2009 RE: Platt's Creek Mitigation Bank BACKGROUND: In 1999 St. Lucie County received a$1 million dollar grant from the St. Lucie River Issues Team to purchase the 100-acre Becker Grove property at Platt's Creek and Sunrise Boulevard. Upon purchase of the property, the County initiated design and permitting of a project to construct a combined stormwater retrofit and mitigation bank on the 100 acres. The project consists of a 20-acre stormwater project with an 80 acre mitigation bank proposed along the shoreline of the north fork of the St. Lucie River. Permitting of the combined project was extremely complex due to the state and federal agency processes that were involved. Permits were obtained for the combined Project in 2003. A second grant was received from the St. Lucie River Issues Team in 2000 for the construction of the stormwater retrofit project at Platt's Creek and Sunrise Boulevard. This $2.7 million project was constructed in 2004 and is currently operational. The stormwater project provides water quality treatment for the 1000+ acre drainage basin of Platt's Creek, prior to discharging to the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. The project consists of a 16-acre wet detention lake and quadraplex pump station that diverts stormwater from Platt's Creek into the treatment system, prior to discharge to the River. The remaining vacant 80 acres is proposed as the mitigation bank site. Mitigation Banks are not eligible for grant funds, as they are intended to be profitable businesses. However, they require a large capital investment up front for construction and operation. In 2008, the County extended the permits for another 5-year term to allow completion of the mitigation bank project. The County is seeking proposals from a private company that is capable of funding, constructing, operating, and administering the mitigation bank permit on the County-owned property. The County would receive a portion of the proceeds from the sale of mitigation bank credits. In addition, the 80-acre site would be improved and restored as a preserve. Upon final completion and closure of the permit conditions, the County will assume ownership of the mitigation bank. The RFP document establishes the conditions and requirements for the proposals and is intended to require no funding from the County. ~ PREVIOUS ACTION: July 14, 1998 - Board approved a conceptual mitigation plan and authorized the expenditure of $2,000,000 from the ESL Fund for the project. August 11, 1998 - Board directed staff to seek an alternative funding source. Page 2 of 3 ~I AGENDA REQUEST I~ ITEM NO.

West, Public Works Director~~l • DATE: April 14, 2009 RE: Taylor Creek Restoration - Spoil Site Evaluation & Design Project 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 for the Taylor Creek Project. A total of 13 sites were evaluated for feasibility as potential dredge spoil disposal sites. In December 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 2004, the County commenced construction of Phase 1 of the 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 was removed from Mr. Bell's property in April 2007. The Phase 1 Project resulted in the removal and disposal of 94,767 cubic yards of muck sediments. Phase 2 involves the dredging of Taylor Creek in the upstream reach between the railroad and the C25 spillway structure. This phase will require dredging of an additional 100,000 cubic yards of muck sediments. The attached Supplemental Joint Participation Agreement with Florida Department of Transportation will provide additional funding for the design and permitting of a Spoil Site on the Ridgehaven Property. PREVIOUS ACTION: February 12, 2008 - Approval of JPA with FDOT and Florida Ports Council (FSTED) for Taylor Creek Restoration - Spoil Site Evaluation & Design Project and Resolution #08-050. FSTED's contribution is in the amount of $90,000 (75%) towards an estimated total project cost of $120,000. August 14, 2007 - Approval of WA # 5 with Dredging and Marine Consultants, LLC in the amount of $9,500.00 for Engineering Services for Taylor Creek Dredging April 27, 2007 - Award of Management Services of Spoil site removal at the Port of Fort Pierce with Dredging and Marine Consultants, LLC.

FROM: Debra Brisson, Director DATE: April 14, 2009 RE: Consent Agenda Item VI - J 1 Card printer for the ActiveNet software system ~ Backqround: The Parks & Recreation Department currently utilizes ActiveNet software for program registrations and facility reservation management. In order for the department to register and track daily users of facilities, ActiveNet's membership module is required. There is no charge for the software component of the module; however, a card printer is required to operate the system. Currently, for daily programs/admissions, a person registers and pays each time they come to a facility. The membership module will speed up entry and eliminate the need for staff to reenter a person's information into the system every time they visit a facility providing for a more efficient use of staff time and better customer service. The cost for the card printer is $2,086. Funds are available in account 001-7510-564000-700, Fenn Center Machinery and Equipment. Because the card printer was not approved in the original FY 08-09 budget, Board approval is required. . Recommendation: Approval of Equipment Request No. EQ09-031 for the purchase of a card printer for the ActiveNet software system. DB:pr C: Faye W.

Fenn Center Backqround: The small mob~le stage at the Havert L. Fenn Center is frequently utilized because it is on wheels and easy to set up, move and take down. It is often rented, for a fee, for use in the multipurpose rooms. Currently when a larger stage is required, staff must set up and then take down the main Fenn Center stage which is labor intensive. An additional section of stage for the mobile stage will allow it to be utilized in lieu of the larger stage thus saving staff time. The cost for the additional section of stage is $1,424 which includes freight. Because this equipment was not approved in the original FY 08-09 budget Board approval is required. Funds are available in account 001-7510-564000-700, Fenn Center Machinery and Equipment. Recommendation: Board approval of Equipment Request No. EQ09-032 for the purchase of an additional section of stage for the Havert L. Fenn Center. DB:pr C: Faye W.

Wilson of the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Department seeking a waiver of all fees for tf~e 2009 Police and Fire Games for St. Lucie County Parks & Recreation Department facilities. The Police and Fire Games committee has requested the use of two (2) St. Lucie County facilities: (1) Havert L. Fenn Center for men's and women's basketball and (2) St. Lucie County Fairgrounds for horseshoes and equestrian events. Staff estimates facility rental fees of $3,811.88 for the Fenn Center and $10,500 for the Fairgrounds. The Sheriff's Department and the Police and Fire Games committee will provide 100% of the support required for the events at the Fairgrounds including set up and daily clean up. They will also provide event staff for the basketball events at the Fenn Center. However, staff estimates additional staffing fees of $270 for the Havert L. Fenn Center to clean the gym floor. See estimate of #ees attached. In 2003 & 2004, St. Lucie, Indian River and Martin counties, hosted the Police & Fire Games and the Board waived all associated fees for St. Lucie County facilities. Tom Colucci, Executive Director of the Treasure Coast Sports Commission, estimated the annual economic impact of the 2003 and 2004 games to be approximately $3 million. The 2009 games are expected to bring over 4,500 participants to the Treasure Coast and the economic impact is estimated to be between $4 and $5 million. The games were held in Jacksonville in 2005 & 2006 and in Sarasota in 2007 & 2008. Recommendation: Board approval of the request to waive facility rental and staff fees as outlined in the agenda memorandum for the 2009 Police and Fire Games. DB:pr C: Faye W.
