C.A. NO.: 10-0486
DATE: April 16, 2010
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10-113 - TVC Municipal Services Taxing Unit
- Permission to Advertise
BACKGROUND:
On May 1, 2007, the County entered into a Stipulated Settlement Agreement
with the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs and others concerning the
Towns, Villages and Countryside comprehensive plan amendments which were adopted
in Ordinance No. 06-19 on May 16, 2006. One of the provisions of new Policy 3.1.9.16
provides that "[w]ithin 12 months from the effective date of this policy, the County
shall create a special taxing district and/or a municipal services taxing or benefit unit
(MSTU/MSBU) to fund capital improvement programs within the NSLC SAP to the
extent necessary beyond developer contributions in the form of impact fees,
proportionate fair share contributions and other developer contributions. "The
geographic boundaries of such special district and/or MSTU/MSBU shall encompass
not less than the entire area subject to the TVC land use designation as of the
effective date of this policy provided that such special district and/or MSTU/MSBU
may establish sub -districts as authorized by law."
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of Resolution No. 10-113, which, if
adopted, would create a municipal service taxing unit. Staff recommends that the
Board create the unit but not levy any taxes or assessments at this time or in the
foreseeable future due to economic conditions and the pending litigation.

TO: Board of County Commissioners
THROUGH: Daniel S. McIntyre, County Attorney
FROM: Mark J. Godwin, Criminal Justice Coordinator —
DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Request to Purchase Data Management and Photo ID System for SLC Drug Lab
ITEM NO. VI B 4
Background:
The St. Lucie County Drug Screening Lab opened on July 1, 2008. The Lab has tested many clients
for the public and private sectors. In 2009, the lab tested over 17,000 individuals.
The SLC Drug Screening Lab uses very advanced computers, and a drug screening analyzer that
provide results for the drug testing of defendants and individuals. This advanced computer system
needs to be enhanced for data management processing. This data management process will use
advanced proprietary software (Uni Directional Interface Software) which will assist the SLC Lab.
This software will allow the lab to automate the distribution of screening results, and mass storage of
information through a secure web portal. This will result in a more streamlined digital process from
the beginning of the drug screening procedure all the way through disposal of the sample.
This purchase will also include a Photo ID Module made specifically for case/client management, and
ID picture card processing. The SLC Lab will be able to generate an official photo ID, thereby
streamlining the drug screening process, and eliminating the potential for any human error.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the purchase of the Photo ID Module, and Uni Directional
Interface Data Management Software. The software and photo ID system must coincide with the
components of the WinTox/Siemens analyzer, as outlined in the WinTox contract that the County has
in place until 2013.
The SLC Drug Screening Lab is a user fee self funded program, and this purchase will not be from
tax dollars.
I also request Board Approval of Budget Amendment No. 10-018 and Equipment Request No. 10-027.

SUBJECT: 80-feet of right-of-way on St. Lucie Boulevard
Charles Fox, Mr. & Mrs. Hoines and David Chopper
SL 2617 Fox Telecommunication Tower
Resolution No. 10-128
BACKGROUND:
GM 09-012 required SL 2617 Fox Telecommunication Tower to convey 80-feet of right-of-way on
St. Lucie Boulevard to St. Lucie County as part of their site plan approval. St. Lucie Boulevard is on
the County's Right -of -Way Protection Map.
Attached you will find a copy of the Warranty Deed for 80-feet of right-of-way on St. Lucie
Boulevard from the property owners, Charles H. Fox, David A. and Bonnie K. Hoines, and David E.
Chopper. The owners of the property lease a small portion of the property to PJ Development, LLC
for a telecommunication tower known as SL 2617 Fox Telecommunication Tower. You will also find
Resolution 10-128 accepting the Warranty Deed for the 80-feet of right-of-way on St. Lucie
Boulevard.
Since the property owners are not developing the entire parcel, they are leasing a portion for the
cell tower, they have requested to receive payment in lieu of impact fee credits. The County
Surveyor negotiated with the property owners, according to Section 7.05.03.I.3.b. of the County
Land Development Code and Section 1-17-33.1(c)(6) of the St. Lucie County Code of Ordinances, the
sum of $60,885.94 for the 80-feet of right-of-way. The calculation has been verified by Dan
Fuller, Fuller-Armfield-Wagner Appraisal & Research, Inc., the County's independent appraiser.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board accept the Warranty Deed, authorize the payment of
$60,885.94 subject to staff receiving the Release from Chris Caravias, authorize the Chairman to
sign Resolution No. 10-128 and direct staff to record the documents in the Public Records of St.

FROM: Mark J. Godwin, Criminal Justice Coordinator�*b
DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Request to terminate St. Lucie County contract with Human Services Associates,
Inc., who provide staff to operate the Juvenile Assessment Center (JAC)
ITEM NO. VI B 7
Background:
In 2005, St. Lucie County funded the Juvenile Assessment Center (JAC) as an eighteen -month pilot
project. Since 2006, the Board has funded the JAC on a yearly basis in the amount of $74,788.00,
which is one third of the operational cost. Additionally, two thirds (2/3rds) of the funding has been
provided by the Cities of Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie.
The JAC is a 24-hour central receiving, booking, assessment center serving juveniles throughout St.
Lucie County. The JAC allows Law Enforcement Officers to return to assigned duties within
approximately 15 minutes after taking juveniles to the center, thereby saving an average of three
hours per juvenile case. In order to properly identify juveniles, and verify if outstanding warrants exist,
the JAC utilizes a fingerprint identification system.
One third of the funding has recently been eliminated due to budget reductions with the Fort Pierce
Police Department. Furthermore, the program also received funds from court fees (F.S. 939.185)
which have also been reduced this year.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the termination of the Contract with Human Services
Associates Inc,. The total budget that Human Services Associates, Inc., requires $308,364.00, and
only $206,576.00 is in the fund for this budget year. Human Services Associates' contract would be
terminated with a thirty (30) day written notice resulting in an effective termination date of June 1,
2010.
The Department of Juvenile Justice has expressed interest in providing services to the JAC program
at a much reduced rate, and this issue will be brought before the Board in the next few weeks.

FROM: Todd A. Cox, Airport Manager 4��
DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Budget Amendment No. 10-017
ITEM NO. VI-C
Background:
The original FDOT grant of $120,000, with a $30,000 local match share, was used to install
obstruction lights on 3,955 linear of feet of fencing as recommended by FDOT to ensure that the
Airport met the licensing requirements contained in Chapter 330 of the Florida Statutes. The project
was completed leaving an unused balance of $103,864. This balance consisted of $83,091 in FDOT
grant funds and $20,773 in local match funds.
In January 2010, the Airport advised FDOT that the project was completed and the remaining balance
of the grant would not be needed for fence lights. FDOT stated that they would issue a supplement to
the grant that would allow the Airport to use the remaining $83,090 to fund 100% of a security
improvement project. The Airport plans to use the funds towards additional security improvements
and fencing, which is an on -going need. The unused local match funds ($20,773) will be moved into
the Airport Reserve account.
Funds Available:
This proposed Budget Amendment will move the existing $83,090 in FDOT grant funds from 140362-
4220-564000-400 (Machinery & Equipment -Capital) and 140362-4220-546300-400 (Grounds
Maintenance -Non -Capital) to 140362-4220-546300-104603 (Security Improvements). The remaining
unused local match funds ($20,773) will be transferred to Fund 140-9910-599300-800 (Reserves).
Recommendation
Board approval of Budget Amendment No. 10-017 transferring the remaining FDOT grant funds
($83,091) and the remaining unused local match funds ($20,773) from fence lighting to security
improvements as outlined in the agenda memorandum, and authorization for the Chairman to sign

MEMORANDUM
FROM: Stefanie Myers, Community Services Manager
DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Shelter Plus Care Grant
ITEM NO. VI — E2
Background:
Housing and Community Services has been providing permanent housing support through a Housing
and Urban Development Shelter Plus Care (S+C) grant since 2005 in support of the homeless
Continuum of Care. This grant assists homeless individuals with disabilities to obtain and maintain
stable housing. The grant is managed through a collaborative with the Treasure Coast Homeless
Services Council, Inc. and New Horizons of the Treasure Coast, Inc. The S+C grant covers a portion
of the rent for disabled homeless adults. In -kind matches are required and are provided by agencies
through the provision of case management, medical services, and other assistance that provides
support for self sufficiency. The help provided by Veteran's Services, New Horizon's, Project
Response or other participating agencies are monitored and submitted to the County for tracking. No
cash match is required.
This grant will provide rental assistance for 15 chronically disabled, homeless individuals from July 26,
2010 through July 25, 2011. The initial grant award was for a five year period for $454,440 with the
potential for annual renewals. Annual requests for renewal will be submitted by the Homeless Coalition
as part of the Continuum of Care application. This is the County's first renewal in the amount of
$147,468. Approximately $750 a month per client will be provided to landlords as long as the
necessary documentation is provided by the agency and the client is in compliance with the treatment
plan created with their case manager.
This item was originally approved as a motion to continue on April 13, 2010 with a request from the
Board to research the possibility of using this grant as an incentive for landlords to provide energy
efficient retrofits to their properties in exchange for additional rent subsidy. The attached response
from HUD indicated that no changes could be made to this grant. Payments under Shelter Plus Care
are subject to regulatory guidelines and based on the participant's income. The grant provides
assistance to individuals, rather than landlords. Therefore, funds cannot be used for any purpose other
than the provision of rental assistance to eligible residents.
Community Services has funding through a Community Development Block Grant that requires a
portion of the money be used for rental property repairs. There is also a part of the Neighborhood
Stabilization Program that requires foreclosed rental properties to be purchased and repaired. Energy
efficiency retrofits will be included in the rehabilitation requirements for these properties in an effort to
improve conservation efforts and reduce utility bills for renters.

(LHAP) Amendment
ITEM NO. VI- E5
Backaround:
St. Lucie County is required to adopt a Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) for the SHIP
program describing the activities planned for funding three fiscal years. St. Lucie County has
partnered with Gregg Wexler to develop Cortez Townhomes on Cortez Boulevard. The project
has been under construction since 2005 and has had numerous delays.
To allow additional time to complete the required road improvements, staff is recommending the
addition of a rental development strategy to the SHIP program for the fiscal years 07/08, 08/09,
and 09/10. Per page 13 of the LHAP, the rental development strategy can be used for
rehabilitation, new construction and/or acquisition of rental units. Adding the strategy will provide
the developer an additional year to complete the project.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Resolution No. 10-138 amending the SHIP LHAP for FY 07108, 08/09 and 09/10
and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Letter of Commitment for Florida Community Health Center (FCHC) Grant
Application
ITEM NO. VI- E7
Background:
Florida Department of Health has a grant program of Medicaid Low Income Pool (LIP) funds for
Federally Qualified Health Centers to finance projects that expand access to primary health care. An
approximate match of 38% is required to receive these Federal funds. The Legislature has provided
one-half of the matching dollars, and the other half of the match ($150,000) must be from local tax
dollars.
The FCHC has asked the St. Lucie County Health Department (SLCHD) for assistance in applying
for a grant to expand their Fort Pierce dental clinic on Delaware Avenue. SLCHD has agreed and is
requesting the Board to provide a letter of commitment for matching funds from SLCHD's budget. If
the grant is approved, the $150,000 in matching funds would be paid in quarterly installments over a
one-year period to the Agency for Healthcare Administration and FCHC would be reimbursed for its
project expenses.
FCHC agreed to provide SLCHD a $150,000 grant from its reserve funds that would be used to fund
school health nurses.
The Health Department funding level from the Board would remain unchanged and if awarded much
needed dental care could be provided to the community. In addition, this collaboration and
coordination of health care services will bring dollars and jobs to St. Lucie County.
Recommendation:
Board approval of a letter of commitment for the FCHC grant application, to amend the contract with
the St. Lucie County Health Department for the required local match, should the grant be awarded,
and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

ITEM NO. VI-H1
Backsaround:
On March 28, 2006 the Board of County Commissioners approved the Road & Bridge
Maintenance division to purchase a 2006 Wacker vibratory compactor (40-8556). The compactor
is used daily with the asphalt patching truck to tamp asphalt when repairing potholes. The
compactor is now needing constant repair, due to this type of vigorous work and excessive use. In
the last eight months, the Road & Bridge division has spent $5,207.45 in repair and rental fees. At
this time, it would be more cost effective to purchase a new compactor.
The Road & Bridge Maintenance division has received three quotes and the lowest bid was from
RSC Rental Equipment in the amount of $1,935.00 (See attached 61-65). Pursuant to the
approval of this agenda, monies to fund this compactor will be made available by moving funds
from the equipment under $1000 account (101002-4110-551200-400) to the Machinery and
Equipment account (101002-4110-564000).
Recommendation:
Board approval of Budget Amendment BA10-016, Equipment Request EQ10-026 to purchase a
vibratory compactor from RSC Equipment Rental in the amount of $1,935.00 and authorize the

DATE: April27, 2010
SUBJECT: Fairwinds Golf Course Greens
ITEM NO. VI-J
County Administration and Parks and Recreation staff recommend the Board declare an
emergency and approve a Design -Build Contract with Camp Dresser & McKee, Inc. for the
reconstruction of the greens at the Fairwinds Golf Course utilizing up to $700,000 in unspent Parks
MSTU funds that were set aside for construction of the Havert L. Fenn Center. Parks MSTU funds
must be spent on capital improvement projects and cannot be spent for general fund operations.
Background:
In 1968, the St. Lucie County Northeast Airport Class I Landfill began operating. In 1974, the
County abandoned landfill operations at the site. In the 1980's, one of the onsite monitoring wells
detected groundwater contamination. As such, the County was required to develop a groundwater
remediation and landfill closure plan in accordance with State and Federal regulations. The
approved landfill closure plan incorporated a public golf course as a final use for the site and, in
December of 1991, Fairwinds opened for play.
At the time the landfill closure plan was approved, State and Federal regulations only required the
placement of layers of muck and soil over the landfill including a horizontal well system to intercept
and transport contaminated ground water to an air -stripper treatment system. A surface water
management system was also implemented and is utilized to irrigate the golf course. Ground water
monitoring continues today and modifications have been made to the system as ground water
quality has improved.
In addition, when the landfill closure plan was approved, State and Federal regulations did not
require the installation of a liner system or landfill gas vents, both of which are required today. As
with other courses built over landfills where these systems were not utilized, Fairwinds has
experienced unacceptable turf quality on the greens.
In the summer of 2002 the greens turf was replaced. It was believed at the time that the poor
health of the greens was due to "bad grass" being installed initially. In 2008 the greens began
deteriorating again. Maintenance staff turned to the professionals from the United States Golf
Association Greens Section and sought assistance from Dr. John Cisar, Turf Grass Program
Coordinator and Professor of Environmental

C.A. NO: 10-0506
DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10-081 -Supporting House Bill 561/Senate Bill 1222 - Extending
Life Safety Retrofit Relief to Community Associations
BACKGROUND:
The Florida Legislature has begun debate on HB 561/SB 1222 to extend life safety retrofit
relief to community associations. The Life Safety Code has been adopted by all 50 states. When
it was adopted, most states made exceptions and accommodations for existing residential
structures, but Florida failed to do so. The bills, if passed, would allow a community's membership
the right of self determination with regard to whether or not their premises should be subject to
certain retrofit requirements. Joel Jeffrey with Community Advocacy Network has requested St.
Lucie County pass a resolution in support of the bill. The attached Resolution No.10-081 has been
drafted for that purpose. A copy of House Bill 561 is attached.
The St. Lucie County Fire District is opposed to the adoption of these bills. A copy of a
letter dated April 19, 2010 from Ken Crooks, Fire District Attorney, stating their reasons to the
opposition of House Bill 561/Senate Bill 1222 is attached.
RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Board decide ifthey are in support of House Bill 561/Senate Bill
1222 and if so, approve Resolution No. 10-081 as drafted.

determined the annual allocation under the current contract was incorrectly calculated. As
set forth in the attached amendment, the annual allocation will be reduced from thirty-nine
thousand and 00/100 dollars ($39,000.00) to thirty-six thousand eight hundred seventy-
three and 37/100 dollars ($36,873.37).

Severe Repetitive Loss Program — Contracts
ITEM NO.
VI -I
Background:
Applications have been submitted to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to mitigate
seven residential properties that qualify under the Severe Repetitive Loss Pilot Program. This program
was designed to provide funding to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk of flood damage to severe
repetitive loss structures insured under the National Flood Insurance Program. Under various conditions
and qualifications, the program will:
• Elevate the structure, or
• Acquire and relocate or demolish the structure. If acquired, the land must remain as open space in
perpetuity and be maintained by a government entity, or
• Demolish and reconstruct the home.
Subject to the program limitations, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, through the Florida
Division of Emergency Management, provides 90% of the mitigation cost. The homeowner is
responsible for the remaining 10%, but must pay for the costs and seek reimbursement through the
County to the State of Florida Department of Emergency Management (FLDEM).
Contracts have been received from the FLDEM for five of the seven applications and authorize funding
for the flood mitigation of five properties (Attachment A). The remaining two applications are still under
review. This does not include an application for the property owners who spoke to the Board several
weeks ago: Jacques Beumer and Irene -Eva Ries, 5209 Palmetto Avenue Fort Pierce, FL 34982.
The grant does not require a cash contribution from the County and allows 5% of the total project cost
for administration and project management to be paid to the County. Should the County's administrative
costs exceed 5%, the overage would not be reimbursed.
The Board approved funding of $24,000 needed for technical studies to develop the grant applications.
Only $8,020 of the $24,000 allocation was needed to complete the technical studies. Therefore, the fund
was closed at the end of the 2008-2009 fiscal year. This $8,020 in costs has been added to the cost of
the mitigation projects, and should be reimbursed to the County when reimbursement through the grant
is requested. The estimated project cost for the first five properties is $1,347,379, which would result in
an administrative fee to the County of $67,368.95. The three elevation projects will require project

DATE: April 27, 2010
SUBJECT: Ft. Pierce Shore Protection Project — General Reevaluation Report
ITEM NO.: III-B
Background:
The River and Harbor Act of 1965 authorized federal approval for the Fort Pierce Shore Protection project.
After the federal project life expired in 1985, Congress reauthorized (WRDA, 1996) the project life to the
year 2020. On August 18, 1998, the Board approved the Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA) with the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) that included a federal cost share of 46.72% and non-federal cost
share of 53.28% for the Ft. Pierce Beach project. Congress also directed (WRDA, 1996 and 1999) the
Corps to prepare a General Reevaluation Report (GRR) to consider among other things, extending of the
project length. There have been five different draft versions of the GRR since 1998.
In early 2004, the Erosion District Board authorized Taylor Engineering to undertake the necessary tasks
to complete the GRR as agreed upon by the (Corps). This action by the Erosion District was a result of
the inaction of the Corps to complete the GRR that included several unsuccessful commitments. After
further coordination with the Jacksonville District -Corps, the GRR was simplified and a separate Limited
Reevaluation Report (LRR) evolved in order to minimize confusion with the Corps' higher authority. The
recently approved LRR and the subsequently amended PCA authorizes 1) a change in frequency of future
renourishment cycles to two years and 2) an increase in federal participation (77.76%) and a reduction in
non-federal cost sharing (non-federal: 22.24%) by incorporating mitigation costs associated with the
federal harbor impacts on down -drift beach erosion.
Due to the longevity of the GRR process, the Corps recently indicated that the draft Ft. Pierce GRR would
require additional work and further revisions to follow new guidelines recently implemented by the Corps.
FDEP and the Corps have both reviewed the attached scope of work, which includes the tasks necessary
to update the GRR. A substantial portion of this work is associated with a complex beach model (beach-
fx) that the Corps has just implemented. This document is intended to 1) provide for a new 50-year project
life as the present project will expire in the year 2020, 2) support the use of structural alternatives (t-groins)
and an inlet sand trap to decrease the present nourishment cycle from two to four years and 3) retain the
cost sharing percentage recently authorized in the LRR. Funding for this work, in the amount of $471,858,
will be cost shared at 50% through FDEP Project Agreement 09SL2 as previously approved by the Board
on January 12, 2010.
