SUBJECT: Special Assessment Notice of Intent for 2010
ITEM NO. VI-C1
Backstround:
One of the funding methods available for the capital improvements and essential services listed below is
through non-ad valorem special assessments levied on specially-benefitted properties within the proposed
special assessment districts and collected using the uniform method pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida
Statutes. In order to preserve this collection option, it is necessary for the Board to adopt .resolutions
expressing its intent to use the uniform method commencing in November, 2010. The resolutions must be
considered at a duly advertised public hearing held prior to January 1, 2010.
The resolution, which will be provided before the public hearing, does not in any way obligate the County to
levy the special assessments; rather, it simply preserves the County's option to use the uniform method of
collection if a special assessment is levied.
The Board is considering the creation of, or has created, the following special assessment districts:
1. Canoe Creek MSBU -proposed -potable water/fire protection
2. Kings/Indrio MSBU -proposed -roadway widening
3. Lakewood Park 2 MSBU -proposed -potable water/fire protection

DATE: November 03, 2009
SUBJECT: Lakewood Park Phase 1
ITEM NO. VI - C2
Backstround:
This project involves replacement of the three primary water control structures with adjustable outfalls
to provide maximum flexibility for stormwater management under varying conditions. The primary
goals of this stormwater improvement project are flood control and groundwater recharge,
accomplished by managing canal stages at optimum levels under variable conditions.
The construction plans for Lakewood Park Phase 1 were advertised for bids on March 15, 2009 and
the contract was awarded to American Engineering and Development Corp. The project was
advertised for bids prior to obtaining the permits due to a grant deadline of September 30, 2009.
Final permits were obtained on July 24, 2009, after modifications to the drawings were required by
the Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District (FPFWCD).
Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District was not willing to permit operable gates on the new
structures, so the design was approved with fixed weir controls. The Lakewood Park subdivision has
strict limitations on allowable discharge that are tied to the original storm water permits that were
approved in 1988. FPFWCD had concerns that discharge limitations could easily be exceeded with
the installation of operable gates.
The County's objective for the Lakewood Park project is to replace the functionally obsolete water
control structures with new structures. The ability to raise the gates and store additional water during
the dry season is also important. This will provide for groundwater re-charge and will minimize
drawdown in the internal lake system of Lakewood Park.
After construction commenced, staff continued discussions with the FPFWCD about the operable
gates. Operable gates on the new structures are a desirable feature, to provide maximum flexibility
for storm water management under variable conditions. The ability to provide pre-storm drawdown of
the water in the Lakewood Park canals will maximize storage volume and provide enhanced flood
protection during the wet season. FPFWCD has agreed to allow the County to install the desired
operable gates. An operations agreement between County and FPFWCD will guarantee that the
permit limitations for Lakewood Park will not be violated.

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Walton Road Widening (US 1 to Village Green Drive)
ITEM NO. VI-C3
Backaround•
The County has awarded the construction contract to Felix Associates, and construction is approaching 50%
completion. Culpepper & Terpening, Inc. is assisting St. Lucie County with the construction management and
with administering the County Local Stimulus provisions.
It is necessary to adjust the quantities of our work items to address changes to the plans necessitated by
unforeseen conditions or County direction. The attached Change Order No. 1 and spreadsheet (Attachment A)
present these items. Adjustment of plan quantities is necessary for proper record keeping and to assure proper
payment to the contractor.
The unforeseen conditions are related to constructing the underground improvements. Despite our best efforts
coordinating very closely with Port St. Lucie Utilities regarding the size and locations of their facilities,
modification of our plans is still necessary. This is a frequent occurrence during underground construction.
County-directed changes are much different, though they too are generally due to unforeseen conditions. An
example is a fence to be constructed along the west side of the new retention pond. The neighbor to the west is
an adult assisted-living facility. The manager of this business has requested this fence as a safety measure
because some of his patients suffer Alzheimer's disease and dementia. After our fence construction, which will
only be constructed on public property, the facility intends to construct a short length of similar fence on its
property to connect to ours, thereby securely enclosing their grounds. Likewise, based on the behavior of the
motorists crossing in or around our project, it is evident that we need to add additional Variable Message Signs
(VMS) to ensure motorists understand how to maneuver our construction site, as well as access the businesses
affected. Total cost of these changes, in the amount of $63,429.76, will be paid for with the project contingency.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Change Order No. 1 to the contract with Felix Associates in the amount of $63,429.76 for the
Walton Road Widening project (US 1 to Village Green Drive) and authorization for the Chair to sign documents
as approved by the County Attorney.

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Severe Repetitive Loss Pilot Program -Revised Grant Applications
ITEM NO. VI-D1
Background:
The Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL) Pilot Program provides funding to reduce or eliminate the long-
term risk of flood damage to severe repetitive loss structures insured under the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP). Under various conditions and qualifications, the program will elevate the
structure; acquire and relocate or demolish; or reconstruct on-site. If the property is acquired, it
must remain as open space in perpetuity. Three of the seven participating properties will be
mitigated through acquisition, three through elevation and one though reconstruction. FEMA will
provide 90% of the cost. The homeowner will be responsible for 10%.
The three properties to be acquired are on private roads. In addition to location-specific Deed
Recitals (Attachment 1), the required FEMA Model Deed Restriction Language (Attachment 2) will
be used. The Environmental Resource Department will oversee the open space.
Acquisition requires that both the property owner and St. Lucie County sign: (1) a Statement of
Voluntary Participation for Acquisition of Property for Purpose of Open Space (Attachment 3, A, B,
C); (2) a Statement of Assurances (Attachment 4); and (3) a Model Consultation Agreement
(Attachment 5). The Model Consultation Agreement also will be used with the three elevation and
one reconstruction projects.
Funds Available:
No County cash funds would be required. However the County would provide project management
and fiscal oversight managing the elevation, reconstruction, or acquisition and demolition of these
structures. FEMA will provide 5% or the total project cost as management and oversight
reimbursement to the County.
Recommendation:
Board authorization to sign and submit additional required information (Attachments 1- 5) to the
Florida Department of Emergency Management/Federal Emergency Management Agency.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: William Hoeffner,
Grants/Disaster Recovery Director
DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Cultural Affairs Mini-Grant Program
ITEM NO. VI D2
Background:
The Grants/Disaster Recovery Department administers a cultural affairs "mini-grant" program that
provides grants of $1,000 to $2,000 to non-profit organizations in support of arts/cultural programs
and projects. Due to recent economic conditions, grants have predominantly been in the amount of
$1,000 during the past two years. The total of grants given is approximately $25,000 per year.
Applications for the mini-grant program are customarily accepted in November of each year and the
funds are allocated in January or February of the following calendar year. The primary source of
funding for the mini-grant program is a County general fund allocation. Funding for the mini-grant
program is also supplemented by funds received by the County from the sale of .Florida "State of the
Arts" license tags.
On September 22, 2009; the Board designated the Arts and Cultural Alliance of St. Lucie (ACA) as
the local arts agency for St. Lucie County, a designation which allows the ACA to receive and expend
funds from the State of the Arts license tag program. The Board also approved funding for the ACA to
complete acommunity-wide survey of arts and culture in St. Lucie County and to develop a strategic
plan for cultural affairs programming. Staff recommends that the mini-grant program for FY09/10 be
postponed until the community-wide survey is completed and until the strategic plan is developed.
With the benefit of the community-wide survey and recommendations within the strategic plan, the
Board could then choose whether to proceed with the mini-grant program, re-structure it or utilize the
funding for other purposes. Pending approval of the Board, an announcement would be sent to
agencies regarding the postponement of the program.
Recommendation:
Board approval to postpone the FY09/10 Cultural Affairs Mini-Grant Program until an Arts and Cultural
Alliance community-wide survey and strategic plan are completed.

TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: William Hoeffner, Grants and Disaster Recovery Director
DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Art in Public Places Contract, Ravenswood Pool Area Murals.
ITEM NO. VI - D3
Background:
The Ravenswood Pool Murals Project was approved by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) in
the Art in Public Places Annual (AiPP) Plan on November 25, 2008. After fourteen responses to a St.
Lucie County Call to Artists, the AiPP Ravenswood Pool Subcommittee and the AiPP Committee
approved commissioning Lori Quinlan, an artist from Port St. Lucie, for the project. The proposal included
painting a mural on the entire Ravenswood pool outside restroom, shower walls along with painting trim
and the main entrance building. A rendering of the mural is attached (Attachment 1). The County
Attorney's office has prepared a specialist agreement (Attachment 2) for $5,000 to cover all of the
materials and labor for the AiPP project. Even though this agreement is for less than $25,000 and within
the approval limits of County Administrator, AiPP Guidelines require BOCC review and approval of
individual AiPP projects.
Recommendation
Approval of specialist agreement authorizing the artist to implement the proposed Ravenswood pool area
mural.

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Midway Road Widening, 25th Street to Florida Turnpike Bridge -Grant Application
ITEM NO. VI-D4
Background:
This item requests Board authorization to submit a grant application to the U.S Department of
Transportation, Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) Discretionary
Grants program for funding not to exceed $30,564,536 (71 %) toward the $43,064,536, construction
cost of widening Midway Road (CR 712) between S.25th Street and the Florida Turnpike
(Attachment 1).
Midway Road is one of St. Lucie County's critical east-west routes and is a vital evacuation route for
disaster events such as hurricanes or threats from the nearby nuclear power plant. The 2.2-mile
roadway section between 25th Street and Florida's Turnpike is two lanes wide, with no sidewalks or
bicXcle lanes. Widening this section to a divided, four-lane highway would ease traffic flow between
25t Street and the Florida Turnpike Bridge, thus easing a bottleneck that could be catastrophic
during an emergency.
The widening project is a priority in the county's Long-Range Transportation Plan and Capital
Improvement Program. The total project cost is anticipated to include:
• Design and engineering $ 2,500,000
• Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Studies $ 250,000
• Pond site and right-of-way acquisition $12,000,000
• Construction* $29 163 972 *
Total Cost $43,064,536
* 2006 construction costs of $24,424,367.68 have been increased by 3% per year for a
scheduled mid-year 2012 construction start date.
There are two issues of note:
1. This Midway Road project is not federalized, which means that it is proceeding without
officially following the federal process. If the TIGER funding is approved, the project will
need to be federalized. However, the County has taken an innovative approach since the
project's inception in that the County has proceeded with the project with the goal of
federalizing it. A consultant's review suggests that the County has done nothing to
jeopardize the federal process and has made every effort to date to proceed in a manner

MEMORANDUM

FROM: Diana D. Lewis, Airport Director
.'
DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Airport West Commerce Park Sanitary Sewer Grant
ITEM NO. VI-F1
Background:
In June 2008, a $788,000 Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) grant originally
intended for the Airport Industrial Park could not be used and was re-appropriated through the State
Legislature to the Airport West Commerce Park (AWCP) sanitary sewer project. In October 2007, the
Board approved the execution of the State Financial Agreement No. LP8991 for this re-appropriated
grant.
The Board approved Amendment 1 in October 2009, which was required to qualify for reimbursement
of revised costs for engineering services, equipment purchase, and construction. Exhibit A for the
grant was modified although no change was made to the original project estimate of $1,269,430.
The attached Amendment 2 is to extend the time for the grant from December 31, 2009 to December
31, 2010 to ensure there is sufficient time to complete the Phase 2 AWCP Sanitary Sewer project that
is currently underway and is to be completed by the end of January 2010.
The attached Amendment 2 will need to be returned to FDEP for execution after the Board's approval
and signature by the Chair.
Recommendation
Board approval of FDEP Grant No. LP8991 Amendment 2 for the Airport West Commerce Park
Sanitary Sewer and authorization for the Chair to sign the document as approved by the County
Attorney.

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Budget Resolution No. 09-307, Florida Department Transportation (FDOT) Joint
Participation Agreement, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
ITEM NO. VI-F2
Background:
The Airport originally prepared a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) in 1997 to comply
with the requirements of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System and the Clean Water Act
Amendments of 1987. The SWPPP identifies potential pollution sources at the Airport and proposes
stormwater management controls and best management practices designed to reduce or eliminate
pollutants entering the stormwater system. The Airport received a NPDES Multi-Sector General
Permit, Section S, on May 5, 2006. This permit is good until May 4, 2011. The SWPPP must be
periodically updated to include changes to the airport facilities and incorporate annual inspection
results.
In October 2009, the Board accepted the FDOT Joint Participation Agreement for $80,000 to update
the SWPPP. A 20% match for the FDOT grant or $20,000 is also required. The attached Budget
Resolution 09-307 establishes the fund for this project.
Recommendation
Board approval of Budget Resolution No. 09-307 establishing the fund for the FDOT grant for the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Update in the amount of $80,000, with a local match share of
$20,000, and authorization for the Chair to sign the document as approved by the County Attorney.

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Budget Resolution No. 09-308, Florida Department Transportation (FDOT) Joint
Participation Agreement (JPA), Taxiway A and B Rehabilitation
ITEM NO. VI-F3
Background:
Taxiway A parallels Runway 10R/28L and is 6,500 feet in length and 35 to 50 feet wide. The original
4,500 foot section of this taxiway was last resurfaced in 1985. The 1,500 feet of the taxiway that was
added when the runway was extended in 1990 has not been resurfaced since it was built. Taxiway B
is a parallel taxiway associated with Runway 14/32. This taxiway is 4,400 feet in length and 50 feet
wide, and was last resurfaced in 1985.
In October 2007, a pavement inspection was conducted by the Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT). The inspection results showed that both taxiways were in fair to poor condition, with sections
of Taxiway B listed as very poor. It has been over 20 years since these taxiways were last milled and
paved, and the pavement has reached its useful life. It is planned to apply fora 95% Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) grant in May 2010 for this estimated $2,850,000 project. FDOT has already
provided a 2.5% grant to match this FAA grant.
In October 2009, the Board accepted the FDOT Joint Participation Agreement for the 2.5% match of
the FAA grant for the rehabilitation project, or $71,250. A 2.5% local match of the same amount is
also required. The attached Budget Resolution 09-308 establishes the fund for this FDOT grant.
Recommendation
Board approval of Budget Resolution No. 09-308 establishing the fund for the FDOT grant for the
Taxiway A and B Rehabilitation projects in the amount of $71,250, with a local match of $71,250, and
authorization for the Chair to sign the document as approved by the County Attorney.

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Heather Young, Assistant County Attorney
C.A. NO: 09-1377
DATE: October 23, 2009
SUBJECT: Airport West Commerce Park -Consider Adoption of Proposed Resolution No.
09-304 Waiving Competitive Bid/Proposal Process for Lease with Project Can
Do and Approving Proposed Lease Agreement Subject to Federal Aviation
Administration Approval
BACKGROUND:
On October 6, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance No.
09-028 which amended Chapter 1-16.2 (Public Property) of the Code of Ordinances and
Compiled Laws to create Leasing Standards and Procedures for the Airport West Commerce
Park. As provided in Section 125.35, Florida Statutes, the ordinance permits the Board of
County Commissioners to waive the competitive bid or proposal requirement for the Airport
West Commerce Park subject to public notice and the adoption of a resolution authorizing
the waiver.
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of proposed Resolution No. 09-304 which was
drafted pursuant to Ordinance No. 09-028 for the proposed Commerce Park lessee
identified as Project Can Do. As set forth in the resolution, Project Can Do desires to
lease Lots 1, 2 and 3, Airport West Commerce Park, Phase I, to construct a manufacturing
and research facility for a targeted industry meeting the requirements of Section
1-7.55-2(d)(1) of the Code of Ordinances, namely a medical testing and supply production
firm which will employee a minimum of one hundred sixty (160) persons by December 31,
2014 with an average annual wage of sixty thousand and 00/100 dollars ($60,000.00). A
portion of the Commerce Park plat showing the location of the lots is also attached. Notice
of the Board's intent to consider adoption of the proposed resolution was published in the
St. Lucie Tribune on October 21, 2009.
In addition to waiving the competitive bid/proposal requirements for the proposed
lease, the resolution also provides for the approval of the proposed lease agreement, a copy
of which is attached to the resolution as Exhibit "A". The lease provides for Can Do to
construct a building with a minimum size of two hundred thousand (200,000) square feet
within thirty-six (36) months. The initial lease term will be forty-nine (49) years with an
option to renew for an additional forty-nine (49) years subject to approval by the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA). Can Do will be required to pay a security deposit in the
amount of twenty-nine thousand nine hundred fifty and 76/100 dollars ($29,950.76).

DATE: November 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Legislative Issue Requests
ITEM NO. IX
Background:
This agenda item is to secure the Board's authorization to submit five Legislative Issue requests for the
following items:
1. Senate Bill 360
2. Support for the Department of Community Affairs
3. Renewable Energy
4. State Trust Fund For SHIP and Transportation Disadvantaged
5. Medicaid Nursing Home and Hospital Billings
It is St. Lucie County's practice to secure the approval of the Board of County Commissioners for
Legislative Issue Requests at a meeting where public input is permitted. The following are proposed
Legislative Issue Requests.
1. Senate Bill 360
Relative to Senate Bill 360, it is recommended the Legislature consider the following:
A. Section 12 of SB 360 eliminated the DRI requirement for local governments qualifying as dense
urban land areas (DULAs). This exemption removed a critical process for dealing with the extra-
jurisdictional impacts created by DRIs. The only apparent remaining mechanism for other
jurisdictions to participate in addressing the extra-jurisdictional impacts of large, regionally
impactive development is now through Chapter 186.509 Florida Statutes dispute resolution
process via the regional planning council. This is problematic for a number of reasons, including:
• The mediation process for DRI-scale development through the regional planning council is
vague, nonbinding and virtually untested on the Treasure Coast;
• Interested jurisdictions will not be notified of large developments in neighboring
jurisdictions or be able to review and evaluate impacts until some unknown time in the
review process. This will likely lead to more delays and result in more legal action rather
than less.
