VI-F Backqround: Prison Health Services (PHS) acts as a third party administrator for prisoner health care and manages and pays for medical care expenses for incarcerated jail inmates that are provided off-site (outside the Jail). The County then reimburses PHS for invoices PHS has paid. Florida Statutes make the County responsible for payment of inmate medical services, including psychotropic drugs, whenever the inmate has no viable method of paying for medical services. PHS has now submitted FY-2010 Closing Invoice Number PHS0008948 (Attachment A) for medical services that PHS has already paid for in the amount of $408,469.45 and is requesting reimbursement from the County. The total FY-2010 Inmate Utilization cost paid to date is $2,019,911.24. Adding this invoice of $408,469.45 shows a total FY-2010 Inmate Utilization cost of $2,705,425.34. Adding the Utilization cost with the FY-2010 paid HIV Medication costs of $475,358.00 results in a FY-2010 total cost for Inmate Medical care of $3,180,783.34. Previous Action: Board Approval of: FY 2010 monthly inmate HIV Medication payments totaling $475,358.00. February 2, 2010; First Quarter FY 2010 Medical Services Utilization payment of $475,003.61.

VI-F2 , Backqround: The Building and Code Division has four building inspectors. For operational purposes, it is required that two inspectors be certified in structural inspections, one inspector be certified in plumbing inspections, and one inspector be certified in mechanical and electrical inspections. There is currently one generic job descr.iption for all four positions. Since the generic job description does not specify a needed specific certification, a problem arises when a position vacancy occurs in' that the job description used to advertise the position does not adequately reflect the County's need for an inspector with a specific certification. It is recommended the current generic job description be replaced with three job descriptions, each delineating a specific certification as a qualification for the job. The three proposed job descriptions are attached. The four building inspector positions currently exist and are funded in the FY 2010-2011 budget. All four positions are at a pay grade 19 and will remain at that pay grade. The cfianges in the job descriptions ` therefore have no fiscal impact. Recommendation Board approval to change the job descriptions of Building Inspectors to reflect needed specialty certifications. ITEM NO.

The Pine Trace development lies within the jurisdiction of the city of Port St. Lucie. This development is situated approximately 11/2 miles south of Midway Road and west of St. James Boulevard. Arrow Directional Boring, Inc. performed a directional bore beneath St. James Boulevard in order to extend utilities to the development. Shortly thereafter, a subsidence was observed in the northbound travel lanes. Sunline Engineering Contractors, Inc. was the developer for the Pine Trace development and the employer of Arrow Directional Boring, Inc., the firm responsible for the bore that caused a subsidence in the northbound lanes of St. James Boulevard. After executing a Fioad Repair Agreement and effecting the necessary repairs for the northbound lanes, a second subsidence, this time in the southbound lanes, was observed along the path of the original directional bore. Rather than require Arrow Directional Boring, Inc., to make the necessary repairs, Sunline Engineering Contractors undertook responsibility for the work. The developer provided surety for both the initial construction and the subsequent funds for the maintenance period. This amount represents 115% of the value of the required improvements. After successful completion of the construction, the 100% portion of the letter of credit is released; the remaining 15% is held as security during the one year and 30-day maintenance period.

VI-G3 Backqround: The project consists of the construction of an eight-foot wide sidewalk that will extend the existing sidewalk that presently terminates just north of Rivers Edge Elementary. The construction will extend the sidewalk approximately 1.3 miles to the entrance at the Oxbow Eco Center. The project will include one designated pedestrian crossing at St. James Drive and Blanton Boulevard intersection and will allow Rivers Edge Elementary, Southern Oaks Middle School and the local neighborhoods safe pedestrian access to the Oxbow Eco Center. On January 26, 2011, five bids were received by the Purchasing Division. Two firms were declared non- responsive because of incomplete submittals. Please see attached correspondence from the Purchasing Division (Attachments A and B). Due to FDOT Funding Bid No. 11-004 was not bid in accordance with Local Preference Ordinance No. 09-005.

Outlaw, ~ County Administ tor FROM: Lee Ann Lowe Assistant Coun y Administrator SUBJECT: Funding for the Arts and Cultural Alliance of St. Lucie, Inc. ITEM: VI-H Backqround During preparation of the 2008/09 budget, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) directed staff to revive a proposal to establisfi a local nonprofit arts organization to replace the County-operated Cultural Affairs Division. This nonprofit organization would be the designated Local Arts Agency pursuant to Florida Statute 265.32 and also assume the responsibilities of the Cultural Affairs Council (CAC), a BOCC advisory board. The benefits of this approach for providing arts and cultural programming include: • Capacity for fundraising is increased through memberships, donations, corporate sponsors, patrons and benefactors; • County funding is leveraged to generate an increased return on investment; • County funding for operational expenses allows donations and sponsorships to be used solely for programs and services, an attractive incentive to corporate sponsors and individual donors in this economic climate; and • Flexibility is available in organizational structure, marketing strategies and program delivery methods. Formation of the Arts & Cultural Alliance of St. Lucie, Inc. At the direction of the BOCC, staff recruited community leaders for the Board of Directors. On September 22, 2009, the BOCC approved funding in the amount of $55,000 from the Cultural Affairs Division to the Arts & Cultural Alliance of St. Lucie, Inc. (the Alliance). The purpose of the funding was to conduct a community-wide survey on arts and culture in St. Lucie County, to prepare a strategic plan based on the survey results and to pay for costs associated with establishing the agency as a nonprofit organization. 1 ~ ~ The results of this important process were intended to lay a firm foundation for the organization in developing fundraising plans and targeting grant opportunities based on the community priorities identified in the survey. It was anticipated that the Alliance would be funded by the transfer of the operating dollars from the Cultural Affairs Division. This was to provide approximately $180,000 per year for up to five years. On October 21, 2009, the Alliance was officially incorporated as a nonprofit under the laws of the State of Florida and the check for $55,000 was issued on December 9, 2009, $50,000 for the community survey and strategic planning process and $5,000 for operational expenses associated with establishing the nonprofit organization. The Alliance conducted a competitive process and awarded the contract for the community survey and strategic plan to Charlotte Pelton and Associates on April 28, 2010. 2010 BOCC Strateqic Planninq Sessions At the BOCC Strategic Planning sessions in May 2010, the BOCC was focused on closing the projected $56 million budget gap for FY 11/12. As a result, the BOCC authorized using the operating dollars from the Cultural Affairs Division toward the budget gap rather than funding the Alliance as originally envisioned. To continue implementation of the BOCC's desire to privatize cultural affairs functions through the Alliance, County staff proposed. and the BOCC approved, funding the Alliance with one- time monies from unobligated funds in the Art in Public Places (AiPP) account. The BOCC went further and decided to suspend the County ordinance which created the AiPP program, ~ sunset the AiPP advisory committee and consider re-establishing the program when the economic situation improves. These changes will require the AiPP ordinance be advertised and amended by the BOCC. The request for permission to advertise the AiPP is on the consent agenda as item VI-B6. Fundinq the Alliance Created more than ten years ago, the County AiPP ordinance requires that a percentage of the budget for County capital projects be set aside for the AiPP program. For the most part, these are County funds, although some state grants allow use of funds for local programs such as AiPP. Of those capital funds which are eligible, 1% is set aside from transportation projects and 2% is set aside from building projects. As a result of the AiPP ordinance, $1.5 million has been generated for this program. More than 20 art projects have been completed, including the Highwaymen Obelisk, the UDT/Seal Memorial, "Totem" in the new Clerk of Courts building and "Dynamics" at the Skate Park. There have also been artist shows and educational events such as Without Walls (WOW), the third of which was recently completed. In the AiPP account, there is currently an unencumbered balance of $478,266 (See Attachment A). Of this balance, it has been determined that $46,729 will be transferred back to the capital accounts of the Airport, County Capital and the Transportation Trust Fund. Staff also 2 ~ ) r_~ ; - recommends that $15,000 be retained for maintaining the current inventory of art works for the next five years (approximately). After these adjustments, the remaining balance in the AiPP account is $418,537. Staff is recommending that the County contract with the Alliance for $74,000 to produce WOW 4 or for other activities which are permitted by the AiPP ordinance. Consistent with BOCC direction last year, the County would also contract with the Alliance for $342,537 as one-time funding for operational expenses, including the salary of an executive director, and/or for use as match for grants, donations and sponsorships. Next Steps The Alliance has completed the community survey and is presenting the results and the strategic plan to the BOCC on March 22, 2010. If the strategic plan is acceptable to the BOCC, the Alliance would like to apply for a competitive grant of up to $40,000 from the State. The deadline for the grant application is June 1 and in order to be eligible, the Alliance must have an operating budget and at least one part-time management employee. Due to the grant deadline, staff is requesting the BOCC move forward with the required revisions to the AiPP ordinance, consistent with the BOCC direction provided at the 2010 Strategic Planning meetings and as outlined in this agenda memorandum. This would include suspending the AiPP ordinance, sunsetting the AiPP advisory committee and designating the distribution of the unobligated balance of the AiPP fund as follows: $342,537 To the Alliance for implementation of the goals of the Strategic Plan as ~ presented to the BOCC on March 22, 2011, including hiring an executive director $ 74,000 To the Alliance for producing WOW 4 in 2012 or other activities permitted by the AiPP ordinance $ 15,000 Retained for maintenance of current art work 46 729 Returned to Airport, County Capital and Transportation Trust accounts $478,266 Total AiPP Unobligated Balance. Recommendation Board acceptance of the Arts & Cultural Alliance of St. Lucie County, Inc. community survey and strategic plan and authorization for the Chairman to execute a contract for funding the Alliance as outlined in the agenda memorandum and approved by the County Attorney. 3 1 ITEM NO.

The assessed valuation of the existing building in which Project Speed has current operations is already recorded on the County's tax roll. The owner is not planning for any additional capital improvement investments into the facility. As such, the company is not eligible for an economic development ad valorem tax exemption. Even though this company will pay an average wage less than the current St. Lucie County average wage of $15.24 per hour, staff is recommending that Project Speed receive a Job Growth Investment Grant based upon the creation of 20 new jobs. RECOMMENDATION: Board authorization to have the County Administrator send a Letter of Intent to offer Project Speed a Job Growth Investment Grant (JGIG) in the amount of $31,500 phased over two years ($15,750 per year).

NO: 11-102 DATE: March 22, 2011 SUBJECT: Permission to File Lawsuit for Letter of Credit issued by First Peoples Bank BACKGROUND: On June 6, 2000, this Board approved Resolution No. 00-021 granting a change in zoning from the AG-5 (Agricultural -1 du/5 acres) zoning district to the U(Utilities) zoning district for a 9.9 acre parcel of property located on the south side of Orange Avenue, approximately 3,000 feet west of Sneed Road. This rezoning petition was submitted jointly by Treasure Coast Land Clearing, Inc. and Treasure Coast Tractor Service, Inc., two local land clearing contractors in the community. In conjunction with this requested change in zoning, the petitioners were also jointly filing an application for a Conditionai Use Permit to authorize the establishment of a land clearing debris disposal site through the use of air-curtain incineration techniques. This conditional use permit was granted through Resolution No. 00-022 Pursuant to Resolution No. 00-022, Treasure Coast Land Clearing and Treasure Coast Tractor Service are required to maintain a cash security fund, bond or irrevocable line of credit to secure the cost of removing all accumulated land clearing and yard trash at ali times. St. lucie County is currently holding a fifty thousand ($50,000) dollar Irrevocable Bank Letter of Credit No. 2005-269 issued by First Peoples Bank. The County has been notified by First Peoples Bank that the Letter of Credit 2005-269 will not be renewed on March 29, 2011. Staff has requested a replacement Letter of Credit. None has been produced. In preparation to draw on the Letter of Credit, Staff requested the original from Finance. The original Letter of Credit was unable to be located, The Bank was contacted to obtain a replacement. The Bank refused to issue a replacement and indicated a suit would need to be filed. On February 24, 2011, the County sent First Peoples Bank a letter demanding the entire amount. The attorney for First Peoples issued a letter (attached) demanding the original letter of credit. The purpose of the irrevocable letter of credit or bond is to secure the cost of removing of all accumulated land clearing and yard trash and debris from the site. The County will have no security to secure the cost of removing the piles as of March 29, 2011, the date of expiration of the current irrevocable letter of credit. RECOM MENDATION/CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners grant permission to file a lawsuit to collect the Letter of Credit issued by First Peoples Bank.

ITEM NO. Backqround: In June 2010, the Board executed Contract No. C10-01-133 with Boran Craig Barber Engel Construction (BCBE) for the Courthouse Annex Phase 1A Addition project. Following approval of the project, Judicial and Sheriff staff have expressed concerns regarding the size of the existing lift used to transport inmates from the Sallie Port to the 1 St floor holding cells. At the request of Chief Judge Levin, on January 27,~2010, the County Administrator joined him for a tour and update on the Courthouse Annex project. During the tour, the Chief Judge pointed out the existing lift and discussed the problems it presented. At the direction of the County Administrator, county staff met with representatives from the Sheriff's office (see meeting notes attached) to discuss issues related to the transporting of inmates from the 2"d floor Sallie Port to the 1 St floor holding cells. The lift that currently provides service to the 1St floor is inadequate as it can only hold three to four people. In order to provide a larger elevator, that will allow for more inmates to be transported and meet additional safety requirements, the Sheriff has approved the use of $300,000 of Law Enforcement Impact Fees (LEIF) for the project (see letter attached). A copy of the proposed plan is attached. A work authorization, in the amount of $24,050 (LEIF), has been executed with EDB Architects to provide architectural, structural, electrical, and mechanical drawings for the elevator project leaving $275,950 (LEIF) available for permitting and construction. Budget Amendment BA11-007, establishing the total project budget of $300,000 is attached. Due to the need to keep the project moving forward, staff is requesting Board approval to amend Contract No. C100-01-133 with Boran Craig Barber Engel Construction, in an amount not to exceed $275,950 for the permitting, construction and installation of the elevator. To accomplish this task, a time extension of 120 days will be required, extending the project completion date to October 6, 2011. Recommendation: Board approval of a First Amendment to Contract No. C10-01-133 with Boran Craig Barber Engel Construction, to change the scope of work to include the addition of an elevator, utilizing Law Enforcement Impact Fees in an amount not to exceed $275,950 as outlined in the attached memorandum, and approval of Budget Amendment BA11-007 and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as drafted and approved by the County Attorney. ~ - ITEM NO.

David, Director Mosquito Control & Coastal Management Services DATE: February 14, 2011 SUBJECT: Acceptance of Indian River Lagoon License Plate FY2010 Grant and Approval of Budget Resolution 11-001 ITEM NO. III - B Backqround: Harbor Branch Preserve was recently acquired for public conservation, recreation, wetland restoration and mosquito control management by St. Lucie County and its cooperating state partners (Florida Communities Trust, South Florida Water Management District and Florida Inland Navigation District). The acquisition project included the purchase of coastal wetlands in mosquito impoundment no. 14C, placing the total acreage of the wetland under conservation at the site at 178 acres (including lands purchased by the Florida Inland Navigation District and owned by the Coconut Cove development group). The management plan has now been drafted which identifies restoration improvements for the site. This grant-funded project is intended to provide the pump station improvements called for in the draft management plan. The pump station is required for re-instatement of mosquito control impoundment management at the site, and to aid in eradication and control of exotic plants currently growing in the wetlands. The Mosquito Control District has been awarded $35,234 from the FY2010 Indian River Lagoon License Plate grant to partially fund completion of the electric pump station. In addition, a grant had been applied for from the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program in the amount of $34,766 to complete the proposed pump station improvements. If this second grant is unsuccessful, staff proposes using Reserves to fund completion of the project. Staff has previously expended $48,259.55 towards conduit installation, electrical underground wiring, construction of the concrete pad and the sheetpile portion of the pump station. Staff proposes to use its remaining spare pumps ' and spare aerators to operate the impoundment until a funding source for new equipment can be identified. There is expected to be no net increase in operational costs at the site after implementation of the restoration activities are completed. The expected increase in electrical and maintenance costs are expected to be balanced by a reduction in insecticide use that will follow commencement of active impoundment management. The estimated cost of 15 annual aerial larviciding treatments in the impoundment is $40,080; the estimated annual electrical cost is $20,000, and the estimated annual pump station maintenance is $10,000. The need for ground adulticiding treatments also would be ITEM NO. III-B Y 'e~~~: ~„3i 4,~ ~ ~ . ~ ~ , C` ~ a~:;~. ~ ~ DATE: 03/22/11 ~ 4 ~ p • AGENDA REQUEST REGULAR PUBLIC HEARING ( ) LEG.

David, Mosquito Control & Coastal Management Services Director FROM: Richard A. Bouchard, P.E., Coastal Engineer ~ DATE: March 22, 2011 SUBJECT: Fort Pierce Beach - Emergency Fill Project ITEM NO. III-B Backqround: With the prospect of not knowing whether or when Federal funding will become available, there is still uncertainty when the next large scale nourishment would occur for Ft. Pierce beach. Given the highly eroded state of the northern most shoreline segment and the real threat of future storm events to upland property and infrastructure, the Board authorized Taylor Engineering to undertake the steps necessary to secure permits for a potential emergency fill project. The Board approved this effort on February 1, 2011 in anticipation of utilizing emergency dune restoration contracts to supply, transport and place a small volume of upland sand in the northern segment prior to the 2011 sea turtle nesting season. On June 22, 2010, the Board awarded two-year contracts to Guettler Brothers Construction, LLC, Sunshine Land Design, Inc., South Florida Land Clearing, Inc. and CKA, LLC, for emergency dune restoration work on an as needed basis. Based upon the evaluation of sand quality, availability of processed material and unit cost at this time, we concur with Taylor Engineering's recommendation to award a contract to Guettler Brothers Construction, LLC, with the option of awarding a second contract to CKA, LLC, for transport and delivery of additional material from another source if needed. The sum total of the contract(s) will not exceed $1.2 million, which would meet our objective for a minimum project of 50,000 cubic yards of sand, with the possibility of an additional 10,000 cubic yards, time permitting. We also recommend award of this contract be made contingent on receiving the necessary permit approvals in time to allow a construction window sufficient to complete the emergency fill project before this sea turtle nesting season. On that basis, the project would need to commence construction around April 1 in order to be complete by April 30. As outlined in the attached correspondence, the State (FDEP) denied the County's request to cost share in this emergency beach fill effort through an existing grant agreement. This project will be funded utilizing funds from the Erosion District reserve account. This project should also provide an ancillary benefit to the local economy due to the selection of a local contractor. Previous Action: June 22, 2010 - Approval of Emergency Dune Restoration Contracts for two years February 1, 2011 - Approval for Taylor Engineering to seek emergency fill permits for Ft. Pierce beach Recommendation: Board approval to enter into a contract for an emergency fill project at Ft.
