SUBJECT: Right -of -Way Protection Map
ITEM NO.: VI-D
Background:
The proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan, based on the recommendations from the
Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) adopted in October 2008, were presented to the Board of
County Commissioners on June 1, 2010. One of the proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan
was to relocate the Right -of -Way Protection Map (RWPM) into Section 7.05.03 of the Land
Development Code. The RWPM directly supports this section which is titled "Rights -of -Way
Determinations and Dedications, Improvements." The Department of Community Affairs does not
require this map to be present in the Comprehensive Plan and updates to the data would be more
efficient if located in the Land Development Code.
The upcoming three public hearings finalize the three -step process of removing the RWPM from the
Comprehensive Plan, updating the information depicted on the map and then adopting the map into
the Land Development Code. Adoption into the Land Development Code requires one public hearing
before the Planning and Zoning Commission and two public hearings before the Board of County
Commissioners.
The Land Development Code requires the `Thoroughfare Network Right -of -Way Protection Plan," of
which the RWPM is a part, to be reviewed and updated every two years. The Schedule of Capital
Improvements located in the Capital Improvements Element of the Comprehensive Plan is based on
anticipated needs identified on the RWPM.
Recommendation:
Board authorization to advertise the three public hearings to update and relocate the Right -of -Way
Protection Map to the Land Development Code as outlined in this agenda memorandum.

White Way Dairy Road Culvert Improvement Project
VI-E2
During routine culvert inspections after Tropical Storm Fay, it was observed that the three existing
98-inch equivalent culvert pipes at the White Way Dairy Road crossing of 5-Mile Creek had
significantly deteriorated.
A pipe restoration method known as shotcrete was chosen, which involves spraying a concrete
lining onto the interior of the pipes. This innovative process would be an expedient and
economical solution to restore large deteriorated pipes. Equally important was the fact that by
minimally reducing the inside diameter of the pipes, this shotcrete method met the North Saint
Lucie River Water Control District head -loss and flow -rate permit requirements.
It is important to note the inherent danger of standing inside a corroded metal pipe and
discharging concrete with substantial force onto the pipe wall. Unless it is done appropriately, the
entire soil column (each square foot of inside pipe ceiling supports about one ton of weight) could
come crashing through. Engineering therefore required an American Concrete Institute's
Nozzleman certification, This certification is not commonplace. At the time of bidding, only a
handful of licenses resided in Florida.
Staff contacted a total of five contractors in accordance with the approved emergency bidding
procedures. Unfortunately, three of the five contractors did not provide bid quotes. Of the two that
did, one bid was determined by staff to be non -responsive. The only bidder deemed responsive
provided a quote for $239,877, which was more than double the Engineer's Cost Estimate. It is
staff's opinion that the general contracting community is not familiar with our proposed repair
procedure and was unwilling to attempt it. Therefore, it is now our intention to design and
construct a county -standard culvert replacement project with cast -in -place concrete headwalls.
Our design is nearing completion. However, last minute issues concerning the delineation of
public and private property boundaries require us to complete additional survey and to modify our
design. Our plans propose two multi -plate arch pipes. We have successfully utilized multi -plate
arch pipes on several projects. A key aspect of the new design will be maintaining all of the
improvements inside the very limited county -owned right-of-way of 30 feet on White Way Dairy

7,000 acres of environmentally sensitive lands. The majority of the County's environmentally
sensitive land was purchased in partnership with 'Florida Communities -Trust (FCT) or is leased
from the State. Both FCT and the State require specific land manag ' ement practices in order to
meet the -requirerTients of the grant. One required land management practice is exotic vegetafjon
removal.
The management'of exotic vegetation frequerftly requires the. physical removal of trees
ees; and
shrubs. ERD's current practice is to cut the. exotic vegetation, spray with herbicides and .leave on
site. This practice works for,small areas; however, for larger areas it creates unsightly piles of
dead vegetation which are a fire hazard. Therefore, ERD is requesting BOCC permission to
Purchase a wood chipper in the amount. of $2,549.00 whi6l)''Will be used to eliminate large piles of
vegetative debris, create mulch for trails . and reduce the fire hazard. Funding- will come from
ERD's capital budget.

SUBJECT: Hazard Mitigation Grant Program - Subgrant Agreement Modification
ITEM NO. VI -I 3
Background:
In May 2005, a grant application was submitted to the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program to retrofit
windows on 11 County buildings with high impact glass or storm shutters/awnings to protect the
buildings from wind damage. On June 20, 2007, an agreement (C06-07-828) was entered into
between St. Lucie County and the Florida Division of Emergency Management summarizing the
terms, budget and scope of work. Two buildings included in the scope of work were the Fort
Pierce Community Center and the Historic Fort Pierce Post Office. Before the retrofitting started,
the City of Fort Pierce took possession of both of these buildings and they would need to be
removed from the scope of work.
A modification to the Subgrant Agreement is required to extend the term, modify the scope of work
and decrease the funds (Attachment 1).
1. The Agreement expired on March 20, 2010 and is amended to end September 20, 2010.
2. The project was completed under budget and the Agreement is amended to decrease the
maximum amount payable under the Agreement.
3. The budget and scope of work is modified to wind retrofit nine County buildings.
Recommendation:
Board approval to modify the Subgrant Agreement between the Division of Emergency
Management and St. Lucie County, as outlined in the agenda memorandum, and authorization for
the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

Plastics Corporation
BACKGROUND:
On October 6, 1992, the Board adopted Ordinance No. 92-24 establishing a program
to exempt certain new and expanding businesses from ad valorem taxation as allowed by state
law, a copy of which is attached. On November 5, 2002, the voters in St. Lucie County
approved a referendum authorizing the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County
to grant a local economic ad valorem tax exemption. Also attached is Resolution No. 03-258
adopted on October 28, 2003 establishing a property tax exemption phase out schedule and
a property tax exemption eligibility rate schedule for new or expanding businesses.
Attached is an application filed by Silver -Line Plastics Corporation. As required by
state law, the application was forwarded to the St. Lucie County Property Appraiser for
review. The comments and findings of the Property Appraiser are contained in the
application. As the memorandum states, Silver -Line submitted the required information and
met the statutory definition of a new business. The Property Appraiser's estimate of the
taxable value lost to the County if the exemption is granted is $236,894.00, The estimate
of revenue lost to the County if the exemption was granted during the current fiscal year is
$12,723.98.
.... The application reflects that thirty-two (32) St. Lucie County residents will be
employed by Silver -Line Plastics.
Under the property tax eligibility chart, it appears that Silver -Line Plastics would
receive a six (6) year exemption, phased as follows:

to be caused by the overgrowth. (Please see attached photographs.)
Chapter 67-1998, Laws of Florida, Section 2 finds that all lots in recorded subdivisions in St. Lucie
County, outside of municipalities, shall be kept free from debris or any other matter which by reason of
of height, proximityto neighboring structures, physical condition, orother peculiar characteristics, might cause
damage to life or property within the immediate area surrounding the same.
If the Board of County Commissioners finds it wise and expedient and serves a public health or safety
purpose for such property to be cleaned of junk, trash and debris, weeds, overgrowth or other growth or
materials, including but not limited.to wood, furniture and tiles, the Board of County Commissioners shall
cause a notice to be delivered requiring abatement of this nuisance. If the nuisance is not abated, the Board
may order the property to be cleared of materials and overgrowth.
RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Board authorize a 30-day notice be sent to the property owner ordering
him -to remove the unsightly and unsanitary matters on the property or, St. Lucie County will have it abated,
including, but not limited to, removing the vegetative debris, overgrowth, outside storage of items and
materials including but not limited to wood, furniture and building scraps, and place a lien on the property.

MEMORANDUM

THROUGH: Mark Satterlee, AICP, Planning & Development Services Director—A61—
Kara Wood, Planning Manager
FROM: Britton De Witt, Senior Planne
Planning Division
DATE: August 17, 2010
SUBJECT: Kennels as a Permitted Use in IL Zoning District
ITEM NO.: VII-G
Background:
During the June 15, 2010 Board of County Commission hearing, the Board directed staff to amend the
text of the Land Development Code (LDC) to include kennels as a permitted use in the IL (Industrial,
Light) zoning district and to schedule the amendment for the next Planning and Zoning Commission
hearing. The direction was initiated when a member of the public expressed a desire to open an animal
rescue operation in an existing building in the IL zoning district where it is currently not a permitted use.
An animal rescue operation falls under the general use category of kennels in the LDC.
Per LDC Section 3.01.03, any permitted use in the IL zoning district is also a permitted use in the 1H
(Industrial, Heavy) zoning district. Therefore, an approval of kennels in the IL zoning district is also an
approval of kennels in the IH zoning district.
The LDC allows kennels as a permitted use in the AG-1, AG-2.5, and AG-5 zoning districts. The AR-1
(Agricultural, Residential — 1 dwelling unit/acre) zoning district permits kennels only as a Conditional Use
(CU) and they must be enclosed. The use is required to follow the lot size and dimensional requirements
of the zoning district as identified in table one in Section 7.04.00.
The LDC lists kennels under the Standard Industrial Code (SIC) of 0752 which also includes the following
additional uses:
• Animal shelters
• Artificial insemination services: animal specialties
• Boarding horses
• Boarding kennels
• Breeding of animals, other than cattle hogs, sheep, goats, and poultry
• Dog grooming
• Dog pounds
• Honey straining on the farm
• Pedigree record services for pets and other animal specialties

` ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Daniel S. McIntyre, County Attorney
C.A. NO.: 10-0948
DATE: July 26, 2010
SUBJECT; Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement between the County and the
City of Fort Pierce - Parks MSTU
BACKGROUND:
On November 5, 2002, the County's voters approved a referendum authorizing the County
to establish a Municipal Service Taxing Unit (MSTU) for parks that would levy an ad valorem tax
at a rate not to exceed 1/4 mill per annum for a term no longer than 20 years. On. May 20, 2003,
the County approved an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Fort Pierce pertaining to the
allocation of proceeds from the MSTU between the County and the City. The City approved the
Interlocal Agreement on May 5, 2003.
Subsequently, the City requested that the County consider changes to the Interlocal
Agreement. The changes, as negotiated by County and City staffs, are set out in blackline form
in the attached Interlocal Agreement. A "clean" form of the Interlocal Agreement is also attached.
The Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement provides that beginning on October 1, 2008 and
continuing through December 31, 2023, the County shall retain on an annual basis, 26.90% of the
debt service payments (Exhibit "B.") and shall pay the City the remainder of the MSTU proceeds
collected in the City. The Agreement also provides for the City to take over maintenance
responsibility for Maravilla Parr (on January 1, 2011) and Dreamland Park (on January 1, 2012).
The City approved the Interlocal Agreement on June 7, 2010 (copy of minutes attached).
RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the Amended and Restated Interlocal
Agreement and authorize the Chairman to sign the Agreement.
