Midway Road Improvements
Four-Laning of Midway Road from South 251" Street East to Selvitz Road
Billie R. and Ellen M. Nease - Parcel It) 3403-502-0175-000/4
BACKGROUND:
St. Lucie County is in the process of acquiring rights of way as part of a Road
Improvement Project to widen Midway Road from South 25th Street to Selvitz Road. The
proposed design is for a four (4) lane divided urban section with a 6` sidewalk on the
north side and a 12' multi -use path on the south side. The footprint for Midway Road will
need to accommodate in the future two additional lanes in accordance with St. Lucie
County's Long Range Transportation Plan.
The proposed design of Midway Road will require that the County acquire the entire
parcel owned by Billie R. and Ellen M. Nease. A copy of the map depicting the proposed
right of way on the Nease parcel is attached. The Nease's have lived in their home for 41
years and are in poor health. This acquisition will require the Nease's to move. They will
lose potential rental income from the two houses in the amount of $1,000.00 a month that
helped supplement their income since retirement.
Staff had appraisals prepared by Fuller-Armfield-Wagner Appraisal and Research
($315,000.00) and Deighan Consultants ($175,000,00). We also had a review appraisal
prepared by Callaway & Price ($210,000.00). County staff offered the Nease's the review
appraisal value of $210,000.00. The Nease's submitted a counter-offer for $315,000,00.
The Nease's counter-offer is identical to the value of Mr. Fuller's appraisal.

SUBJECT: State Revenue Sharing Improvement Revenue Bonds Series
2005 Resolution No. 10-290 Amending Exhibit G Project
Description
BACKQROVND:
On May 17, 2005, the Board adapted Resolution No. 05W 118 which provided for the
issuance of not exceeding $14,000,000 State Revenue Sharing Improvement Bonds,
Series 2005. County staff has reviewed the project description in Exhibit "G" and has
drafted suggested modifications to the project description for Board consideration.
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of the proposed changes in "clean" and "blackline"
form. Also attached is a copy of draft Resolution No. 10-290 which, if adopted, would
amend Exhibit G as noted above. The County's Bond Counsel has reviewed the proposed
changes to Exhibit G and determined that the proposed uses of fends are a permissible
use of the proceeds of the Series 2005 Bonds under the provisions of the Code.
The original 2005 Project description included funds for the construction of the
County Courthouse and acquisition of environmentally sensitive lands. The County
continues to acquire environmentally sensitive lands, however, the 2005 Project did not
provide funds for preservation, enhancement and protection of those lands, nor did it
provide funds for Greenways and Trails and other environmental restoration projects on
County lands. The revised 2005 Project description provides funding for the acquisition,
enhancement, protection, restoration and preservation of environmentally sensitive lands,
Greenways and Trails and other environmental restoration projects on County lands.
However, regardless of the project description, the use of bond funds is still restricted
to capital projects and cannot be used for operation and maintenance.

RESOLUTION NO.10-292
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA, SUPPORTING LEGISLATION TO
IMPLEMENT COST-EFFECTIVE, CLEAN AND RENEWABLE ENERGY
PORTFOLIO STANDARDS (RPS) IN THE SUNSHINE STATE,
WITH MEANINGFUL OPPORTUNITIES FOR DISTRIBUTED SOLAR
AND OTHER PREFERRED RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES.
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida, has made the
following determinations:
Florida has an abundance of clean and renewable energy (RE) sources that provide an
opportunity for cost-effective energy solutions, economic development, and significant
savings to taxpayers and rate payers alike.
2. The clean energy economy can help fuel much needed economic recovery, produce greater
efficiencies and energy savings, create jobs in the hardest hitjob sectors, and foster private
sector investment in clean industry, high paying manufacturing jobs and research and
development activities.
3. According to the experts hired by the Florida Public Service Commission, the Top 3 most
technologically -viable RE alternatives in Florida are: (1) Solar PV (photovoltaic)'(2) Offshore
wind; and (3) Biomass. Solar thermal technologies are also very cost-effective
and have potential widespread application. (Reference Navigant Report, p. 189)
4. Florida currently imports all of the fossil fuels used to generate electricity in the state and
consequently exports about $15 billion annually. Instead of outsourcingjobs and capital,
the Legislature should adopt an RPS and help provide the opportunity for people and
entrepreneurs to reinvest in preferred renewable energy technologies.
5. An RPS requires states to procure a percentage of generation from renewable energy. No
two programs are the same and each state must develop appropriate programs to meet
state -specific needs and capitalize on all available local resources - most notably the Sun
in the Sunshine State.
6. As of June 2010, mandatory RPS policies have been passed in 31 US states and the District
of Columbia, with six additional states approving conditional or non -mandatory renewables
goals.
7. Because of the tremendous solar energy potential in the Sunshine State, a
specific emphasis should be given to Solar technologies and private sector investment
therein.
8. According to the United States Department of Energy (DOE), those states that have
adopted an RPS have seen little change in utility rates. In fact, seventy percent (70%) of the
states with an RPS experienced less than 1 % change in utility rates. Texas experienced a
rate decrease. (Reference DOE Study)

SUBJECT: Approval of funding Mental Health Services offered by New Horizons of the
Treasure Coast
ITEM NO. VI B 6
Background:
Since 2005/2006, the Board has funded New Horizons of the Treasure Coast Inc. to provide services
to individuals involved with the criminal justice system that were suffering from mental and or
substance abuse disorders. The $481,000 in funding from the Fine and Forfeiture Fund provides
housing, medication, case management, psycho social rehabilitation and substance abuse services in
community based settings. The contract for services is for $481,000.00. This funding also supports
the $688,000.00 Substance Abuse, Alcohol and Mental Health grant award as in -kind match dollars.
According to SLC Jail Classification reports, the percentage of inmates with psychiatric disabilities
exceeds 20% - significantly higher than the national average of 7%, as reported by various national
studies ' In accordance with national averages, close to 72% of this population may also be living
with co-occurring substance abuse disorders.
Early intervention opportunities for mental health and substance abuse offenders provide these
defendants/offenders with access to alternative, more appropriate community mental health treatment
at a cost significantly less than the cost of incarceration.
New Horizons of the Treasure Coast, Inc. partners closely with the courts and criminal justice system
to provide a broad range of mental health and substance abuse services. As a nonprofit corporation
providing residential and outpatient mental health and substance abuse rehabilitation for over 47
years it has been the primary local provider of substance abuse and mental health services.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Board approve the contract with New Horizons of the Treasure Coast, Inc. as a
sole source provider. New Horizons is the only program in the County that can provide the wrap
around services that are needed for the jail diversion clients.

Staff recommends the Board deem New Horizons as a sole source provider and enter into a contract
with them for staffing the Case Manager position that works with Mental Health Court. New Horizons
is the only program in the County that can provide the services needed achieve the overall goal of
reducing the criminalization of the mentally ill within the correctional and judicial system and to reduce
the rate of recidivism of the mentally ill.

DATE: November 9, 2010
SUBJECT: Special Assessment Notice of Intent for 2011
ITEM NO. VI-C2
Background:
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-benefrtted 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, 2011. The resolutions must be
considered at a duly advertised public hearing held prior to January 1, 2011.
The resolutions, which will be provided before the public hearing, do 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 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
4. Lakewood Park 3 MSBU - proposed - flood protection enhancement
5. Rainbow Drive 1 MSBU - proposed - potable water/fire protection
6. Rainbow Drive 2 MSBU - proposed - wastewater
7. River Hammock MSBU - proposed - potable water/fire protection
8. South Hutchinson Island Beach Restoration MSBU - proposed - beach restoration
9. Towns Villages and Countryside - proposed — infrastructure
10. Energy Conservation/Renewable Energy MSBU — proposed -- energy efficient improvements
Recommendation:
Board authorization to advertise 10 public hearings to consider use of the uniform method of collecting
special assessments to be held at the Board's regular day meeting on December 14, 2010, as outlined in this

FROM: Todd A. Cox, CM, Airport Manager
DATE: November 9, 2010
SUBJECT: LPA Work Authorization No. 31, 150 Acre Wetland Mitigation Area Maintenance
Project
ITEM NO. VI-D1
Background:
This work authorization provides consultant services and associated maintenance and monitoring activities
related to the Runway 1 OL128R 150 Acre Wetland Mitigation Area Maintenance Project. Completion of the
third year of the project ensures South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Army Corps of
Engineers (ACOE), and the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) permit compliance through the end of FY
2011.
In order to construct the new runway and taxiway, the permitting processes with the South Florida Water
Management District (SFWMD), Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE), and the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS) required that over 150 acres of land be set aside for mitigation of impacted wetlands and protected
species. The SFWMD 120 acre area includes a gopher tortoise relocation area and a scrub jay mitigation
area, and must be continuously maintained. The ALOE also required the exotic removal and a five year
maintenance program on a 29.88 acre parcel located immediately to the south of the 120 acre site as part
of the runway and taxiway mitigation, Semi-annual monitoring reports are also required to document
improvements made for wetland mitigation and for protected species. Based on the maintenance plan, the
next maintenance and monitoring event is scheduled for November 2010, with the SFWMD and ACOE site
inspection scheduled for December 2010. Failure to comply with SFWMD and ACOE requirements can
result in the County receiving a Notice of Non-compliance from those agencies.
Previous Actions:
• July 8, 2008 - LPA Work Authorization No. 11 for initial exotics removal.
• September 16, 2008 - LPA Work Authorization No. 13 for 150 acre mitigation enhancements.
• February 3, 2009 - LPA Work Authorization No. 16 for Year 1 maintenance & monitoring requirements.
• September 15, 2009 - LPA Work Authorization No. 23 for Year 2 maintenance & monitoring
requirements.
Recommendation:
Board approval of LPA Group Work Authorization No. 31 to provide consultant services for the Runway
10L128R 150 Acre Wetland Mitigation Area Maintenance Project, for a lump sure amount of $76,084, and
authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

FROM: Todd A. Cox, CM, Airport Manage
DATE, November 9, 2010
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10-280, Terminal and Customs Facility Renovations (Phase 1)
ITEM NO. VI-D2
Background:
This project, as approved under the FY 2011 Capital Improvement Program, consists of modernizing
the existing airport terminal and the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Facility located on the
Airport. Key to the modernization will be the installation of renewable energy alternatives and
implementation of green building standards.
Funds are available in the Airport Local Match reserve account for this project. During the FY11
Strategic Planning Sessions, staff presented a sustainability plan for the Airport budget that included
the option to cancel the terminal project and use the local match funds to reduce the projected 1=Y11
shortfall of $162,000, The Board discussed the project and gave direction to leave the project in the
budget and continue to work towards reducing its budget shortfall. Through additional budget savings
and reductions, current projections indicate that the Airport may not have a deficit.
The present airport terminal was built in the 1960s and needs to be modernized to reduce utility and
maintenance costs associated with the age of the building. Additionally, in March 2009, the Board
directed staff to proceed with obtaining a grant for terminal renovations design in anticipation of
possible commercial service to the Bahamas. In September 2009, The Tourist Development Council
(TDC) unanimously supported the use of $100,000 in TDC funds towards the renovation of the
terminal citing that the proposed improvements to the terminal would help promote and advertise
tourism activity in St. Lucie County. In October 2009, the Board approved the use of TDC capital
funds as part of the match for the renovations of the Airport terminal.
The existing CBP was built in the 1980s, This facility and its associated operations have grown over
the last 30 years to include processing of all commercial and private vessels entering the Part of Fort
Pierce, commercial truck processing, and overseas passenger processing at the airport. The CBP
facility was also an integral part of the processing of inbound passengers and vessels during the 2009
Haiti relief missions conducted at the airport.

ITEM NO.
VI-D3
Background:,
This project, as approved under the FY 2011 Capital Improvement Program, is a companion project to
the Terminal and Customs Renovations project and consists of the milling and overlay of
approximately 185,000 square feet of the apron areas located next to the Terminal and Customs
buildings. These aprons were last resurfaced in 1980 and the pavement has reached its useful life.
In October 2007, a pavement inspection was conducted by the Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT). The inspection results showed that apron areas were in fair to poor condition. Additionally,
the drainage structures located within the apron areas are failing and portions of the aprons retain an
inordinate amount of water during all weather -related events.
The attached Resolution authorizing Board acceptance of the Joint Participation Agreement is for the
80% match of the FDOT grant in the amount of $808,000, with a local match amount of $202,000 for
a total project amount of $1,010,000. Funds are available via the Airport local Match reserve account
for this project.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Resolution No. 10-281 accepting the FDOT Joint Participation Agreement in the
amount of $808,000 for the Terminal and Customs Apron Rehabilitation project, and authorization for
the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

On October 25, 2010, staff received a letter from the homeowner, Ms. Pamela Sanders, requesting
her contract with S & V American Contractors, Inc. be cancelled due to time delays and stress.
Staff has mediated interactions between the homeowner and the contractor in an effort to reach an
amicable agreement, without success.

JJ's Design and Construction will be executed for the remaining work to complete the project. JJ's
Design and Construction was the second lowest bidder for this project.

HOME Investment Partnership Program
ITEM NO. VI - G2
Background:
HOME is the largest Federal block grant provided to State and local governments designed exclusively
to create affordable housing for low-income households. Each year approximately $2 billion is allocated
among the states and hundreds of localities nationwide.
Participating Jurisdictions (PJs) must provide a 25 percent (25%) match from nonfederal sources. Match
funds may include:
• donated materials or labor;
• the value of donated property;
• proceeds from bond financing; and
• other resources.
PJs must reserve at least 15 percent of their allocation to fund housing to be owned, developed, or
sponsored by experienced, community -driven nonprofit groups designated as Community Housing
Development Organizations (CHDOs). PJs must ensure .that HOME -funded housing units remain
affordable long term. PJs have two years to commit funds (including reserving funds for CHDOs) arid
five years to expend funds.
The St. Lucie County HOME Consortium is comprised of Indian River, Martin and St. Lucie Counties. St.
Lucie County was designated the lead county by all members in 2006.
A total of $710,386 has been allocated to the consortium and will be divided, based on population, as
follows:
• Administration - $71,038.60;
• CHDO Set Aside - $95,902.11;
• St. Lucie County - $266,288.19;
• Martin County - $141,295.78; and
• Indian River County - $135,861.32.
The FY 10 Action Plan calls for these funds to be utilized on the rehabilitation of owner occupied homes
and down payment assistance to first time homebuyers.

SUBJECT: Rezoning Request —William S. Bland
ITEM NO. VII-A
William S. Bland is requesting a change in zoning from the CO (Commercial, Office) Zoning
District to the CG (Commercial, General) Zoning District. The subject .63 acre property is
located at 385 East Midway Road at the southeast corner of Midway Road and Star Avenue.
The parcel is the subject of a Notice of Violation that was issued on August 26, 2009 by the
Code Enforcement Division. The current CO (Commercial, Office) Zoning District does not
allow the existing auto repair business as a permitted or conditional use. Mr. Bland has been
operating an auto repair business on the subject property without Zoning Compliance since
1990. The proposed CG Zoning District would allow for the abatement of the violation upon
the completion of certain improvements (landscaping, parking, buffering, etc.) to the property
in order to comply with commercial business requirements and issuance of Zoning
Compliance.
On May 21, 2010, the applicant held a neighborhood meeting after mailing notice of the
meeting to all property owners within 500 feet to inform adjacent property owners of the
proposed rezoning. There were no issues or concerns raised by the four (4) area residents
that attended this meeting regarding the proposed request
At the June 17, 2010 public hearing on this matter, the St. Lucie County Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval of the requested change in zoning by a vote of 8 to 0
(Barry Schrader was absent). No public comments were made regarding the proposed
rezoning. The Planning & Zoning Commission minutes and staff report are attached for your
consideration.

BACKGROUND:
The Board has previously adopted impact fees for libraries through Ordinance No. 00-
002 on May 9, 2000 and law enforcement through Ordinance No. 04-005 on April 6, 2004.
Attached is a Technical Memorandum from Dr. James C. Nicholas titled "Methods Used to
Update library and Law Enforcement Impact Fees" dated April 5, 2010, which demonstrates
a reasonable connection between the need for library and law enforcement improvements to
be funded by the County and impact fees collected for libraries and law enforcement and the
impacts on libraries and law enforcement generated by development in the incorporated
municipalities (cities of Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie and the Town of St. Lucie Village) and the
unincorporated County.
Also attached is draft Ordinance No. 10-032 which, if adopted, would implement the
proposed increase in impact fees recommended by Dr. Nicholas,
On October 21, 2010, the Planning and Zoning Commission by a vote of 7 to
2 recommended approval of the Ordinance updating library and law enforcement impact fees
for consideration by the Board. Notice of this public hearing was published in The Tribune on
October 23, 2010.

Backaround:
The proposed adjustments update the St. Lucie County (SLC) Utilities South Hutchinson Island (SHI)
District Wastewater Utility miscellaneous charges to be consistent with the rest of the Utility, or the SLC
Water and Sewer District, as calculated per the recent rate study and as adopted for the SLC Water and
Sewer District on June 1, 2010. The customer account charge is proposed to increase $0.10 per bill per
month from $2.30 to $2.40. The monthly SHI wastewater rate will not change but remain at $30.23 per
EDU. A new convenience fee of $4.00 per credit card transaction is being charged to recover some of
the costs in providing that service. Attachment 1 is a comparison of the current versus proposed rates.
Notice of a proposed rate adjustment was included on the bills mailed to all existing St. Lucie County
South Hutchinson Island District Wastewater Utility customers and advertised in a local newspaper at
least 10 days prior to the public hearing (October 26, 2010). The information on the proposed rates, fees
and charges was provided to the Presidents' Council of South Hutchinson Island, and also made
available on the Utility website.
Staff is requesting approval through this resolution to adopt the adjusted rates effective with November
bills.

DATE: November 9, 2010
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 10-034 - Solar Energy Ordinance
ITEM NO. VII-E
Backaround:
On October 21, 2010, the Board held the first of two required public hearings for the proposed Solar
Energy Ordinance. At that hearing, the Commissioners asked staff to provide additional information
and to revise certain provisions in the draft ordinance. As requested, a copy of the revised
ordinance was sent to Peter Merritt at the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, solar industry
professionals and surrounding local government staff for review. To date, comments have been
received from the City of Fort Pierce's Planning Director, David Carlin, Rand Eckhart with Energy
Structures & Systems, Inc., and Anne Cox, Asst. Planning Director for the City of Port St. Lucie.
Mr. Eckhart, replied that the ordinance is good beginning but may as time goes on, need refined.
The City of Port St. Lucie had no comments.
Based upon Mr. Carlin's concerns, County staff has reconsidered the requirement that solar energy
systems be listed as a conditional use in the RIC (Residential, Conservation 1 du/5 acres) Zoning
District, rather than an accessory use as provided for in all other zoning districts. Given that a solar
energy system is accessory to the principal use of the property and that the solar units may be
placed on rooftops, with no impacts to the native habitat, staff recommends the requirement for a
conditional use be deleted. If a ground or pole mounted system is proposed, the installation would
be subject to the County's resource protection standards. Staff would note that the uses in this
zoning district are limited to a single family home, a family day care home, or a family residential
home. The only conditional use allowed in the RIC Zoning District is a telecommunication tower.
Another question that arose during the development of this ordinance regards standards that apply
to products and equipment installed on property. The Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC) is
charged by the Florida legislature with developing guidelines and standards for equipment in the
state. FSEC is one of the nation's leading certification and testing laboratories for solar products
and equipment. The standards developed by FSEC are incorporated by reference in rules (Rules
6C7-8.006 through 6C7-8.010) published in the Florida Administrative Code. The Florida Solar
Energy Center offers certification and testing services for both photovoltaic and solar thermal
devices. All solar energy systems manufactured or sold in the state must meet the standards
established by the center. No permits for the installation of the system are issued until verification of
the FSEC certification.

BACKGROUNb :
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of draft Resolution No. 10-297 which, if
adoptedswould approve the issuance of not exceeding $175,000,000 industrial development
revenue bonds. The purpose of the bonds would be to f inance the cost of the acquisition,
construction, and equipping of a plasma arc gasification facility at the County's Glades Road
Landfill site. One hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00) would be tax-exempt industrial
development revenue bonds and $75,000,000 would be taxable industrial revenue bonds.
The County would be a "conduit" issuer so that the County would not be obligated to pay the
bonds and neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the County would be pledged
to repay the bonds.
Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 requires that the Board hold
a public hearing before approving the issuance of tax-exempt bonds. Notice of this public
hearing was published in the Tribune on October 26, 2010.

ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Daniell 5, McIntyre, County Attorney
C.A. NO.: 10-1489
DATE: November 5, 2010
SUBJECT: St. Lucie County v. TAT Land Settlement Offer
BACKGROUND*
On October 28, 2008, the Board adopted Resolution No. 08-314 authorizing the
acquisition of a parcel owned by T&T Land, Ltd. by donation, purchase or eminent
domain. Attached to this memorandum is a map outlining the boundaries of the 5t.
Lucie County International Airport. The property owned by T&T is outlined in yellow.
The property was needed to clear the line of sight to the Air Traffic Control Tower,
for providing additional security and for enhancing airport safety. In addition to
adopting Resolution No. 08-314, the Board also authorized staff to make an initial
offer of $1,369,750 based on .the 2008 Assessed Value by the 5t. Lucie County
Property Appraiser.
The property owner did not accept the County's offer and the County was
forced to file suit in eminent domain. The County requested the Court to allow the
County to obtain possession of the property immediately by issuing an Order of Taking.
After negotiation, the parties (T&T Land and the County) entered into a Settlement
that agreed to an Order of Taking that allowed the County to take immediate
possession of the property with no possibility of an appeal. The parties agreed to
establish a "floor" of $1,735,000 for the ultimate compensation, The Judge entered
an Agreed Order of Taking on June 18, 2009. A copy of the Order is attached. The
County deposited the $1,735,000 into the Court Registry on June 23, 2009 and title
passed to the County. The County completed construction of the runway and cleared
the trees off the former TAT parcel. The runway is currently in operation.
