Permit #0700983 - 168 SW Oakridge Drive, Port St. Lucie
Permit #0624661- 202 SW Paar Drive, Port St. Lucie
BACKGROUND:
St. Lucie County has adopted ordinances establishing impact fees so as to assure that new
development bears a proportionate share of the cost of capital expenditures necessary to provide
public buildings, roads and parks in St. Lucie County. On September 6, 2005, the Board of County
Commissioners approved Ordinance No. 05-030 which provided for an alternative method for
collection of impact fees for public buildings, roads and parks.
The alternative collection mechanism provided for the County to serve an Impact Fee
Statement notice upon the Fee Payer. If the impact fees were not paid and became delinquent,
the County served a Notice of Lien upon the Fee Payer and the Owner. The Notice of Lien advised
that upon failure to pay the impact fees, the County would record a Claim of Lien with the Clerk
of the Circuit Court. Once recorded, the Claim of Lien constituted a lien against the property.
On February 24, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners granted permission for the
County Attorney to file suit to foreclose said lien(s). The County Attorney's Office began the suit
procedure by sending letters, since March of 2009, to the property owners reminding them of
their obligation to pay the impact fees. As of this date, two hundred seventy-four thousand, two
hundred fifty-six and 97/100 ($274,256.97) has been collected by the County as a result of these
efforts. In addition, eight property owners have been approved for Impact Fee Payment
Agreements and are currently making payments towards their delinquent impact fees totaling
$57,897.90.

FROM: Marie M. Gouin, Director
DATE: February 9, 2010
SUBJECT: Dori Slosberg Mini -Grant Awards
ITEM NO. VI-F8
Background:
The Dori Slosberg Mini -Grant funding is designated to assist driver education safety programs in
public and non-public schools in the County. Funds can be used for direct education expenses and
not for administration. The grant was initially advertised on September 9, 2009, with a closing date
of September 25, 2009. We did not receive any applications by the closing date and the grant was
readvertised on October 30, 2009, with an application deadline of November 13, 2009. We
received the following requests totaling $219,550 (See attached grant applications):

Mr. Nocar's application was not recommended because the request was based on the County
providing a vehicle to him to be used for the driver education training. The grant procedure does
not include any provisions for the County to purchase or provide vehicles to applicants.
In addition, Mr. Nocar is applying as an individual and is not representing an entity. This is the first
time an application for the grant has been made by an individual. Per the County Attorney's office
the procedures would permit a contract with Mr. Nocar if he had contracts with the schools. He
does not have contracts at this time.
As of January 28, 2010, we have $497,847 in the Dori Slosberg Driving Safety Fund.
Attached is a copy of the applications and general program information.
Recommendation:
Board approval of the award of grant funds as indicated in this agenda memorandum and
authorization for the Chairman to execute contracts as prepared by the County Attorney.

ITEM NO. VI-H3
Background:
Cortez Multi -family Townhomes is located on the south side of Cortez Boulevard east of South 25th Street. A
condition of the approval is the signalization of the intersection of South 25th Street and Cortez Boulevard. On
the west side of South 25th Street, North St. Lucie River Water Control District Canal No. 8 is situated between
Cortez Boulevard and North Cortez Boulevard. A consequence of signalization at Cortez Boulevard is the
necessity of closing the intersection of North Cortez Boulevard and South 25th Street. Please see the attached
map (Attachment A) and Resolution No. 10-037.
The developer is preparing to construct the required signalization improvements. The construction plans require
the contractor to remove the connection of North Cortez Boulevard with 25th Street during this work at no cost to
the County. Residents on North Cortez Boulevard can use the remaining portion to head west four blocks to 2e
Street to access the Cortez Boulevard and the South 25th Street intersection when necessary.
Recommendation:
Board authorization to advertise a public hearing to be held on Tuesday, March 2, 2010 at 6:00 p.m. or as soon

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Donald B. West, Public Works Director
DATE: February 9, 2010
SUBJECT: Taylor Creek Dredging, Phase 2
ITEM NO. VI — H5
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 (IRL) is a goal of the IRL National Estuary Program.
In April of 2004, the County commenced construction of Phase 1 of the Taylor Creek Dredging
Project. The Phase 1 Project resulted in the removal and disposal of 94,767 cubic yards of muck
sediments from the Taylor Creek navigation channel. A 16-acre spoil disposal site was
constructed on Mr. Lloyd Bell's port property 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.
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 Port of Fort Pierce has acquired the Ridgehaven Property and the County is
in the process of designing and permitting a permanent spoil site.
This funding from Florida Seaport Transportation and Economic Development Council (FSTED)
through a Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT)
will provide for a portion of the dredging of Taylor Creek Phase 2. The cost for dredging of the
upstream portion of Taylor Creek is estimated at $3,500,000. FDOT's current contribution to
Phase 2 is $454,904. A County match of $454,904 or 50% is required. Grant applications are
pending for the remaining funds needed to complete the project.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Joint Participation Agreement #425969-1-94-01 with FDOT in the amount of
$454,904 for Dredging of Taylor Creek Phase 2, approval of Resolution No. 10-062 and
authorization for signature by the Chairman.

$20,000 for creation of an Energy Efficiency Strategy for County Facilities.
Improvements to County facilities will include air -conditioner replacement at the County's St. Lucie West
Courthouse Annex and alternate locations, installation of a solar thermal system at the County Jail, or
replacement of existing lighting with energy -efficient LED fixtures at County buildings and ballparks. The
exact budget detail will be determined as the grant application is developed and quotes are obtained
from vendors. The $250,000 in seed money is the maximum allowed under this grant. No match is
required for this grant. However, $20 million in funds tentatively obligated by local banks toward the
County's proposed CDFI, associated with the federal EECBG grant, will be used as leverage.
Recommendation
Board authorization to submit a grant application in the amount of $1.24 million to the Florida Energy
and Climate Commission for energy -efficient improvements to County facilities, seed money and
administrative funds for the Empower St. Lucie program and funding for creation of an Energy Efficiency
Strategy for County Facilities.
