March 12, 2012 marks the 1001h anniversary of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, which began in 1912 when Savannah, Georgia native Juliette "Daisy" Gordon Low gathered 18 girls to provide them the opportunity to develop physically, mentally, and spiritually. 2.

The award winning Girl Scout Leadership Program helpsgirls discover themselves and their values, connect with others, and take action to make the world a better place. 4. The Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor in Girl Scouting, requires girls to make a measurable and sustainable difference in their community, assess a need and design a solution, find the resources and support to make it happen, complete the project and also inspire others to sustain it. S. The Gold Award honors leadership in the Girl Scout tradition, and Gold Award recipients have already changed the world as high school students. 6. Core programs around Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), environmental stewardship, healthy living, financial literacy, and global citizenship help girls develop a solid foundation in leadership. 7. Since its founding in 2000, the Girl Scout Research Institute has become an internationally recognized center for original research, research reviews and surveys that provide significant insights into the lives of girls. B. Through the dedication, time, and talent of volunteers of different backgrounds, abilities, and areas of expertise, the Girl Scout Program is brought to many girls in grades K-12 in St. Lucie County. 9. Today, more than 50 million American women are Girl Scout alumnae, 3.3 million girls and adult volunteers are active members, and Girl Scouts is the largest member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, a global movement comprised of more than 10 million girls in 145 countries worldwide.

I:\C8 H Drive\AQendaMemo-KB-095551RD.wpd Respectfully submitted, Katherine Barbieri Assistant County Attorney Planning and Development Services Department Planning Division MEMORANDUM TO: Katherine Barbieri, Assistant County Attorney FROM: Kara Wood, Planning Manager q, CC: St. Lucie County Historical Commission Robin Meyer, Building and Code Compliance Manager DATE: January 25, 2012 SUBJECT: 4955 S Indian River Drive (William Robinson House) condemnation Pursuant to Section 4.11.10 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, the St. Lucie County Historical Commission was given the opportunity to provide recommendations and suggestions to the Board of County Commissioners in consideration of the proposed condemnation of the stuctures at 4955 South Indian River Drive, also known as the William Robinson House. The following section of the Historic Preservation Ordinance applies to the St. Lucie County Building Official's declaration of the subject buildings as unsafe structures proposed for condemnation: Section 4.11.10. - Demolition. A. Demolition of a building, site, district, landscape feature, object, structure, earthwork, mound, midden or such resource that has been designated as historic pursuant to this ordinance may occur only pursuant to an order of a government agency or a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to an approved application by the owner for a Special Certificate of Appropriateness. 8. Government agencies having the authority to demolish unsafe structures shall receive notice of designation of buildings, sites, districts, landscape features, objects, structures, and archaeological sites or zones. The Historical Commission shall be deemed an interested party and shall be entitled to receive notice of any public hearings conducted by said government agency regarding demolition of any property designated or documented as historic pursuant to this ordinance. The Historical Commission may make recommendations and suggestions to the government agency and the owner(s) relative to the feasibility of and the public interest in preserving the designated property. The Historical Commission meeting agenda for January 17, 2012 included a discussion of the proposed condemnation. No quorum was present for this regularly scheduled meeting, but comments were collected informally from individual commission members present. The only recommendation provided was to encourage the County offer a way in the condemnation and demolition process for interested parties to harvest historic building materials from the structures. Interior finishes including original beadboard, trim, hardware and flooring could be collected from the site prior to or during demolition without compromising the structural integrity of the building for those extracting the materials.

NO.: 12-0188 DATE: February 14, 2012 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 12-035 - Brocksmith Road Maintenance Improvement Project BACKGROUND: Brocksmith Road is a 3.3 mile long rural unimproved dirt/shell rock road located in western St. Lucie County. The County's Public Works Department is working to implement a maintenance improvement project to install an asphalt chip seal surface treatment on Brocksmith Road. Attached is a copy of Resolution No. 12-035 which, if adopted, would direct the Public Works Department to implement the Brocksmith Road Maintenance Improvement Project, RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the Board approve Resolution No.12-035 as drafted and authorize the Chairman to sign the Resolution. Resp.€gfully submitted Daniel S. McIntyre County Attorney, DSM/caf Attachment 3`d Draft 2/9/12 RESOLUTION NO. 12-035 A RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT TO IMPLEMENT THE BROCKSMITH ROAD MAINTENANCE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT WHEREAS, the Board .ofCounty Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida, has made the following determinations: 1. Brocksmith Road is a 3.3 mile long rural unimproved dirt/shellrock road located in western St. Lucie County. The County's Public Works Department is working to implement a maintenance improvement project to install an asphalt chip seal surface treatment on Brocksmith Road (the "Project"); and 2. The Project limits extend from Okeechobee Road (SR 70) to Orange Avenue (CR 68), a distance of approximately 3.3 miles. The County desires to improve the riding surface of Brocksmith Road by installing an asphalt chip seal surface treatment, along with safety features such as a guardrail, reflectors and signage. 3. The existing right-of-way of Brocksmith Road is substandard and will not accommodate an improved roadway that meets the current design standards of St. Lucie Land Development Code and the Florida Department of Transportation. 4. There are several physical conditions that are unique to Brocksmith Road that create difficulty with improvement of the roadway: a. There is a very deep canal (NSLRWCD Canal #53) that is adjacent to the west side of Brocksmith Road along its entire length. b. There are a large number of existing power poles along the east side of Brocksmith Road that cannot be easily relocated. C. I . The existing right-of-way is of insufficient width to allow for placement of guardrail barriers on both sides of the road, and also provide for standard travel lanes and shoulder widths that meet the County's land development code and design standards. d. Substandard lane widths and shoulders will be necessary if the road is to be improved within the existing right-of-way. Guardrails should be provided between the canal and the roadway to improve safety, but this will decrease the shoulder widths. e. Relocation of the existing power poles is not feasible without acquiring additional right-of-way or easements from the property owners. -1- 5. The existing road conditions do not meet current design standards. 6. Implementing the project will improve the existing conditions and make the Brocksmith Road safer for the traveling public. 7. The decision to implement the Project is a planning level decision initiated by the Board of County Commissioners and is intended to make Brocksmith Road safer for the traveling public. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida: 1. Based on the findings set out above, the Public Works Department is directed to implement the Project including the installation of warning signs as appropriate. 2. This resolution shall take effect on adoption. After motion and second, the vote on this resolution was as follows: Chairman Chris Dzadovsky XXX Vice Chairman Tod Mowery XXX Commissioner Paula A.

SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT.:, Parks and Ascre-ation .DATE-.: 2/2/2012 RECEIVED FEB 06 207 City Manager's 0MG1311 EVENT PLANNER CONFERENCE PROPOSAL Overview. This is written to propose an inVestment of 20% of budgeted..Civic Center. hospitality marketing funds, equating to $5,000, towar&.'.the.Wgeted'goals established within the•2011 Civic Center Marketing Plan, increasing weekday occupancy, by:attending Event Planner conferences and securing such business'. It is believed that attending such'cohferences is the most direct route to the decision makers. As the Civic Center's marketing,liudget is not substantial, endeavors have been successful in securing ,partners that have committed to contribute to these efforts: So far,.the St. Lucie County Tourism Development Council_has.agreed through the attached interlocal.agreement that they will contribute $5,000 in`matching funds. Lisa,Gilrane, PSL Holiday Inn, has agreed.to secure.Holiday Inn or Marriott hotel rooms -at little or no -cost to -house our staff attending such conferences. Michelle Valvano, TDC Council member, from Perfect Drive Golf Villas, has offered hercompanys tradeshow booth for our use, we must only purchase our signage W complete the booth to represent the Civic Center in a professional manner. Review of Target Market (from 201-1964arketi09Planl As presented within the 2011'Winter Council Retreat, the Civic Center's marketing plan revealed that the cufterit operation experiences:high occupancy on Saturdays. Therefore, full day rental is required on Saturdays. Those seeking'Saturdays•br part -day weekend rentalsseem to be satisfied with moving their event to Friday evenings or Sundays: increasing the occupancy during the week now must be our focus. Therefore, the ideal customer for the ,.P,ort St. Lucie Civic Center requires 1) A multi -weekday event• space for business and/or social purposes 2) Event space two or more times'peryear 3) .Ancillary items/service 4) Food and beverage,catering service 5). Our°centralize location PSL businesses.and.amenities Review of'Core Strategyffrom:201-1.Marketing Planl "The Civic COW, -with ts,professionally elegant, flexible=sized event•;space will position itself as the " piace wh&6r 'the:Treasure Coast.mee&',for corporate and non-profit markets to increase weekday occupancy:; Expanding:its;audience>whh this focus will,continue to•expose,new potential clients to our facility that will,desire to•rerit.space.for•private:market weekend functions and. corporate and.non-profit ``standard wofk-,fdei Ei"'attdhdance,functions to maintain weekend occupancy."

Local business, thosewho know the property, have attended functions here before, and,inteenet searches:make,up an overwhelming, percentage of the leads that find us. To expose more people: to the`facility, to increase the volume of "local business", new events have beeri:created and advertised and'have been successful in lead generation results.. To increase successful internet lead generaiion;,24% of the marketing budget has-been invested into a very successful Search Engine Marketing'cainpaign. Update:•Actiye Marketins Analysis: Outreach is the,definition,6f;bririging.in non -passive business. With•a:staff.of 3 full time Event Specialists and too many.passively:acquired leads to manage to therr.full.pofential, outreach to Chamber functions, alone, just-has'not;been:possible The addition of the,Sales;Assoeiate in!September 2009 was the solution, however, she left in February •2010. °The'contract was;fewritten,to:beirriore attractiye.to incumbent applicants; two very promising Sales Associate;.were.hired.in.September 2011,,one remains, attrition being attributed to the slow proses .,of bOgcliing a commission-based`income on a $500Jmonth draw . The program has definitely .beefi ideeiE sW il':in L- abling-,the",CiVic;Center'to adequately manage acquired:leads to their•full potential and in sure:outreach',.i&Ctiamber functions, both of which have developed -sales that.would not have otherwise been.pf ibable:. The next step Is to increase direct marketing to -the target. -market: The obvious step is to strike at the heart — seek out event planners seeking facilities to hold their functions. Although analysis of -Sales Associates' attempts reveals their diligence;isatlrriirable but;tfieir success in reaching event planners by telephone or email has yielded minimal`resdlts. The logical answer into attend meeting planner conferences with -an attractive• plan to stand out in.the crowd. Proposed: New Marketing Campaign The following is the.proposed marketing campaign to attract the ideal customer, weekday business, to the Civic Center, Port 5t. Lucie ano'St: Lucie County: The Civic Center can accommodatetapproximately 1500 in Emerald Ballroom for conferences, meetings and trainings. We are centraliy'located between•Orlando and Miami,. For those who have planned such events in -those locations, we are attractively priced, especially in'this economy foi businesses that may be cutting back. We have the appeai:of,a suburban community versus the frustration presented by Orlando and Miami city traffic. Opr area also has incredible "tourism activities" and resources to avail to prospective conference attendees, eriabling,us to offer•a package, working vacation and benefiting the City more broadly as well -as #he;entire.County. The introduction of this concept.and•the•7500 room -night potential for a 5 day conference created the appeal'to the SLC Tourism Development:Council to back our endeavor through offering financial assistance to directly target the.event. planner market by attending event planner conferences. Furthermore, the St. Lucie County -Economic Development -Council -could appeal to visiting corporations while -they are in town that are' hot" on their target industry list. Selecting Event Planner Conferences Through website research and conversations with TDC administration; Visit Florida staff members and event planner conference booth sales -personnel, we have narrowed down our request to attend the "Destination: Marketing Association Event Planner Conference in Washington, DC on February 28, 2012." Thisevent's:target audience,is associate, corporate or third-paity meeting planners. These are professionals involved-with,site-selection for upcoming meetings, conventions and trade shows. This conference;association;hand-selects-1000-1200 event planners to invite each year, basing their invitations`ori,proyable, histoi-icM data of holding events of various sizes with established budgeted -funds. Conference:matengl Wattached. The.everiL�planner;attendee:contact,list-is:released to the vendors in advance of the conference. It is standard'that vendd.rs;use,the;list-to•m. ake.appointments to meet individually with attendees, not only at.the:conference,;,bUt=the:day(s) before and after to share Marketing,concepts and pricing. It would be our intention,to`arrive omSunday with such established meeting appointments Monday, attend the conference Tuesday, hold established meeting appointments Wednesday and return to Florida Thursday. Staffing Event.P.lanner Conferences The staff, attending the Event.,Planner Conferences would include Laura.0'Brien, the Civic Center Hospitality Manager and Robert Casais, the Civic Center Sales:Associate. To reach the full potential, -ideallyve should havea total of'4.personsIocating and approaching 1200 potential attendees with a -minimum 5 minute presentation overthe course;of.3 days. OWbijsiy,;some will immediately reject presentation and.some will take longer; Many advance attempts-wiil be made to secure longer meetings; prior, to arrival. having a:300rattendee contact list per person, however; makes success much :moreyealistic. The final two staff persons°chosen to -attend "are yet to be determined. Natalie Neil, Civic Center Event Specialist who exceeded her sales;goals_iasf .year is a logical alternate. As SLC TDC funds are in play, Charlotte Lombard of the SLC TDC.is a;possible alternate who could be brought up to speed on Civic Center details, her travel expenses.being.charged to TDC funding.

LUCIE COUNTY: The Federal government and St. Lucie County have long partnered on the Fort Pierce shore protection project and the St. Lucie County shoreline feasibility study, which is evaluating erosion along the southern shoreline of the County. To fund beach nourishment projects and studies that are not often budgeted for by the Administration due to the difficult competition for funds from the Army Corps of Engineers, Congress has adjusted their funding strategy in the age of no -earmarks to add additional funding for what Congress terms "Additional Funding for Ongoing Work." Among these amounts, Congress in Fiscal Year 2012 provided $39.544 million in additional funding to the Corps for "shore protection" construction activity as well as $3 million for "shore protection" investigations (studies). These will likely be the funding sources from which the Fort Pierce beach project and the St. Lucie County feasibility study must compete in the future. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate annual funding for the Corps of Engineers Investigations and Construction accounts, including additional funding specifically for "shore protection" projects not identified in the annual Administration budget. Support the Corps' funding of the St. Lucie County feasibility study in Fiscal Year 2013 and the re -nourishment of the Fort Pierce, FL Federal shore protection project in future fiscal years.

The legislation also modifies Corps' activities on particular projects and sets guidelines for how the Corps operates. Over the years, the County has taken the lead on advancing Federal studies and initiatives on some of its water resource projects in order to expedite their completion. This includes efforts on the Fort Pierce shore protection project related to slowing the rate of erosion south of the Fort Pierce Inlet and also improving the Federal/local cost share of the project due to the impact of the Federal Inlet. Also, the Federal authorization of the Fort Pierce beach project is set to expire in 2020. One of the goals of the County's language will be to ensure a new 50-year lifespan of the project without having to restart the Federal process of studies and authorizations from scratch. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support passage of a Water Resources Development Act, including: • Provide a $850,000 credit to the County for costs incurred by the County for the General and Limited Reevaluation Reports of the Fort Pierce, FL Federal beach project • Allow for the Fort Pierce, FL General Reevaluation Report to be considered suitable for a new 50-year project authorization, thereby allowing for the future construction of structural alternatives and potential inlet sand bypassing south of the Fort Pierce Federal Inlet in order to help reduce the frequency of future beach nourishment cycles !

LUCIE COUNTY: The Federal government and the State of Florida have long partnered on projects to help restore the Everglades, maintain flood protection, and provide a reliable water supply for Floridians. Among the many projects being implemented are several that impact St. Lucie County. One of these is the Ten Mile Creek Water Preserve Area. This project was designed to be an above ground reservoir capable of storing up to 6,000 acre feet of water with an associated storm -water treatment area which was intended to improve the health of the St. Lucie Estuary.. Unfortunately, the project has never functioned as it was designed and has been operating instead passively. Currently, the Corps is performing temporary operational testing in order to assist the Corps and the South Florida Water Management District in determining a path forward for the project. The South Florida Water Management District has generally been reluctant to agree to cost -share any needed fixes to the project to make it fully functional again. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support the continuing implementation of all facets of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan, including: • Continued Federal and State action on the Ten -Mile Creek project in St. Lucie County • The State purchase of the remaining 1,300 acres of land needed for the C-24 Reservoir and storm water treatment area so the Corps of Engineers can proceed with construction of the C-23 and C- 24 Reservoirs and storm water treatment areas project, which is part of the original Indian River Lagoon -South project • Full Federal funding for the restoration of the Herbert Hoover Dike • Full Federal funding for the construction of the C-44 Reservoir and associated storm water treatment areas Full Federal funding and an authorization increase for the completion of the Kissimmee River restoration project NOTES: Van Scoyoc Associates Inc. 1 101 Constitution Ave., NW I Suite 600 West I Washington, DC 20001 T: 202.638.1950 1 F: 202.638.7714 1 www.vsadc.com I Page 7 VAN'"SCO:YOC A a B :'O C I A TE S FEDERAL ISSUE: Fort Pierce Inlet Maintenance Dredging; Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund BACKGROUND, HOW IT MAY AFFECT ST. LUCIE COUNTY: The Fort Pierce harbor was last dredged by the Corps of Engineers in 1998. The inlet channel and interior turning basin are authorized for a depth of 28 feet, but are currently operating at depths as shallow as 18 and 20 feet, which limits the amount of traffic that can use the harbor. Currently, the harbor cannot handle the traffic that may like to use the facilities for shipping. According to the Indian River Terminal, ships are turned away because of the low access depths. The port now regularly turns away trade by ships that require 22 or more feet of draft. That means the port loses, under current conditions, $2 to 3 million in trade per year due to the lack of maintenance dredging of the channel. Recent proposals to import aggregates that meet new standards for construction materials set by State and Federal agencies cannot be accommodated by the port because the larger vessels needed for efficient transportation of products require up to 25 feet of draft. At least half a dozen prospects have inquired to use Fort Pierce for this purpose. It is estimated that local service businesses lose $300,000 to $450,000, and special transport and commodity providers such as cranes, heavy duty trucks, and the railroad lose as much as $3 to $4.5 million per year in business. The shipping customers also face losses because other ports impose greater costs and less efficiency than the Fort Pierce harbor. To fund dredging projects that are not generally budgeted for by the Administration due to the difficult competition for funds from the Army Corps of Engineers, Congress has adjusted their funding strategy in the age of no -earmarks to add .additional funding for what Congress terms "Additional Funding for Ongoing Work." Among these amounts, Congress in Fiscal Year 2012 provided $30 million in additional funding to the Corps for "Small, Remote, or Subsistence Navigation' operations & maintenance (O&M) activity. This will likely be the funding from which the Fort Pierce Inlet must compete in the future to maintain the channel. On another front, in an effort to alleviate the annual shortage of funding for O&M activities throughout the United States, some have advocated that disbursements from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund (HMTF) be increased dramatically. The Harbor Maintenance Tax, which funds the HMTF, is levied on importers and domestic shippers using coastal or Great Lakes ports and is assessed at a rate of $1.25 per $1,000 in cargo value. When O&M funding is provided for a Corps dredging project, it comes from the HMTF. At the end of 2011, the HMTF was expected to have a balance of more than $6 billion. Interest on collections has been over $100 million alone in recent fiscal years. However, because the HMTF is not a separate, or "off -budget," account within the Federal budget, the "surplus" in the HMTF has in effect already been spent elsewhere on other general government activities. Expenditures by Congress out of the HMTF to pay for routine O&M expenses have remained relatively stagnant for decades. In essence, Congress has decided to provide less funding for Corps O&M activities than would be provided if there were a legislative mandate to spend all funding provided annually via the HMTF. Over the past 15 years, HMTF expenditures by Congress have consistently been less than the collections and interest into the HMTF. The difference between what is collected and what is spent has fluctuated, from a low of roughly $50 million in Fiscal Year 2002 to a high of roughly $500 million in Fiscal Year 2009.

The final standards set numeric limits, or criteria, on the amount of nutrient pollution allowed in Florida's lakes, rivers, streams and springs. This action seeks to improve water quality, protect public health, aquatic life and the long term recreational uses of Florida's waters which are a critical part of the State, and St. Lucie County's economy. However, these standards also may come at a considerable cost to local governments, utilities, and others. In response, the House passed H.R. 2018 and other items of legislation to amend the Federal Water Pollution Act to grant states the authority to mandate their own water quality standards (including nutrient criteria) instead of the EPA enforcing a Federal standard. While this legislation is supported by Richard Budell, Director of the Office of Agricultural Policy for the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Administration has signaled that they would veto H.R. 2018 if it were to pass the Senate, which is unlikely in the 112`h Congress. Most recently, EPA has agreed to let Florida promulgate its own to numeric nutrient criteria, which it has recently done. The State Legislature approved the final rule in February 2012. EPA will need to approve the final rule once it is signed by the Governor. Some stakeholders have already opposed the State's new proposed rule in court. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor activities surrounding the proposed "numeric water quality criteria" for lakes, flowing waters, and canals.

LUCIE COUNTY: Long-term authorization of Federal surface transportation programs would ideally have occurred before the end of Fiscal Year 2009, but Congress failed to meet that deadline. Since then, Congress has continued transportation programs via short-term authorizations. One of the most difficult issues to be considered during authorization will be how to finance our transportation infrastructure. Fuel taxes, which provide most of the money for surface transportation, do not provide enough funding to maintain even current spending levels for transportation, even if Congress were to raise them modestly. The choice then becomes finding new sources of income for an expanded program, or alternately, to settle for a smaller program that might look very different than the one currently in place. Less Federal funding via a transportation authorization bill would mean significantly less funding available to the Florida Department of Transportation, and ultimately St. Lucie County, to support both surface transportation and transit projects and programs. The House has proposed a 5-year, $260 billion authorization (H.R. 7) that would keep surface transportation funding stable (but declining in real terms if inflation rises). However, the plan to pay for the additional spending is controversial and dependent on the resolution of other legislative issues, including tapping revenue from increased offshore energy exploration and requiring larger retirement contributions from Federal employees. The legislation proposes that all trust fund revenues would be spent solely on highways, meaning that transit would lose its dedicated funding. Transit would be funded with a one-time $40 billion payment (mostly from Federal retirees). This would not impact transit funding over the next several years, but following the depletion of the $40 billion payment, transit would no longer have a dedicated source of revenue.and would be forced to compete against all other government programs for funding. The Senate has introduced S. 1813, a 2-year authorization that would provide inflation -adjusted rises in transportation funding, but is seen as less than ideal given its short duration. An area of significant concern in S. 1813 is a proposal to terminate Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) that contains urbanized areas (UZA) with a population of fewer than 200,000. In St. Lucie and Martin counties, the UZA supports two MPO's making one vulnerable to elimination if this provision were to become law. This language is seen as an effort by the U.S. Department of Transportation to work with fewer MPO's, many of whom have varied levels of transportation planning sophistication. With regard to bike and pedestrian programs funded via Federal transportation programs, under current law, projects can currently be funded through three programs: 1) Recreational Trails (RT) 2) Transportation Enhancements (TE) 3) Safe Routes to School (SRS) The House version of the bill proposes to maintain the RT program, significantly alters the funding for the TE program, and eliminates the SRS program. On the other hand, the Senate bill eliminates both the RT and SRS programs and does not provide dedicated funding for TE activities. Instead, TE's will have to be funded out of Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program funds, which also include a number of other uses. Bike and pedestrian advocates fear that projects they favor will not survive like they have under this scenario without dedicated funding.

LUCIE COUNTY: Under various recent transportation authorizations, grant funding for capital and operating expenses for transit agencies is provided via the Urbanized Area Formula Grants Program, also known as Section 5307 funding. Urbanized areas (UZA's) are places designated by the Census Bureau as having populations of 50,000 people or more. Under current Federal law, in UZA's of fewer than 200,000 people, transit agencies are allowed to use 50 percent of their funding from the program for operating expenses, with the remainder to be spent on capital expenses. In UZA's of more than 200,000 people, transit agencies must generally use their entire grant allocation on capital expenses, regardless of the size of their transit agencies and their ability to be self-sufficient. The Port St. Lucie (PSL) UZA, which encompasses much of urban St. Lucie and Martin County, passed the 200,000 person threshold after the 2000 Census because the two former UZA's were agglomerated into one by the Census Bureau. Since then, Congress has provided temporary waivers to the PSL UZA and others like it that broke the threshold in 2000 and still need the flexibility to use up to 50 percent of their 5307 funding for operating expenses. Those waivers are unlikely to exist in perpetuity. Instead, legislation is necessary to allow smaller transit systems, regardless of overall population which they may serve, to retain flexibility in their use of their 5307 funding. In the 112t' Congress, the House (H.R. 7) and Senate (S. 1813) have each introduced transportation authorization measures that contain language that will allow for that type of critical flexibility. Also, stand-alone legislation has been introduced in the House (H.R. 3545) that enjoys the support of both Representatives Hastings and Rooney. ` `(2) SPECL4L RULE. —The Secretary may make grants under this section to finance the operating cost of equipment and facilities for use in public transportation, excluding rail fixed guideway, in an urbanized area with a population of not fewer than 200, 000 individuals, as determined by the Bureau of the Census — "(A) for public transportation systems that operate 75 or fewer buses during peak service hours, in an amount not to exceed 50 percent of the share of the apportionment which is attributable to such systems within the urbanized area, as measured by revenue vehicle -hours; and ` `(B) for public transportation systems that operate a minimum of 76 buses and a maximum of 100 buses during peak service hours, in an amount not to exceed 25 percent of the share of the apportionment which is attributable to such systems within the urbanized area, as measured by revenue vehicle -hours. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support H.R. 3545 and other legislation that allows smaller transit systems to use up to 50 percent of their Federal Section 5307 funding for operating expenses regardless of population.

LUCIE COUNTY: Congress passed a final reauthorization of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in early February that extends the program through Fiscal Year 2015. Among other things, the legislation authorizes $3.35 billion annually for the Airport Improvement Program (AIP). AIP is a Federal grant program that provides funds to public airports to improve safety and efficiency. The program is funded through taxes on airplane tickets and aviation fuel. This funding stream is critical to improvements at the St. Lucie County Airport and is subject to annual appropriations by Congress. In the Fiscal Year 2013 Administration budget, there are also expected to be two proposals that could significantly impact general aviation. These include instituting a "user fee" tax and eliminating the Federal Contract Tower program at general aviation airports. Specifically, a $100 per flight fee on aircraft that use controlled airspace may be proposed, which would hamper aeronautical and other businesses that depend on general aviation yet may not have a customer base onto which to pass the fee. Additionally, the budget may request the elimination of Federal funding to FAA contract towers served exclusively by general aviation, such as at the St. Lucie County Airport. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support $3.35 billion in annual appropriations for the Airport Improvement Program. Support any St. Lucie County Airport grant proposals through the Airport Improvement Program. Oppose efforts to institute a per flight fee on general aviation aircraft that use controlled airspace. Oppose the elimination of Federal funding to FAA contract towers served exclusively by general aviation.

C I A T B B FEDERAL ISSUE: Tax -Exempt Bonds BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT ST. LUCIE COUNTY: Although municipal bonds have been tax-exempt for almost 100 years, a number of Federal proposals are being discussed which target the tax exemption of tax-exempt bonds. With local governments facing severe budget difficulties, any proposal to limit the tax exemption would put more pressure on local finances by reducing demand for tax-exempt bonds and increase borrowing costs for state and local governments, ultimately leading to higher taxes or reduced services. Specifically: • The Administration proposed as part of a jobs and deficit reduction plan to limit the benefit of itemized deductions and certain exclusions to 28 percent for higher income taxpayers. • The Administration also proposed a new debt reduction trigger which could further limit the exclusion for tax-exempt bond interest income below 28 percent. The new trigger could limit the tax savings from tax-exempt bonds every year, increasing the risk and the cost of all tax-exempt bonds. • The Administration's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, also called Simpson -Bowles, recommended a tax reform plan which would end the tax exemption for newly - issued state and local bonds. • The Bipartisan Policy Center has proposed a tax reform plan, also known as Domenici-Riviin, which would end the tax exemption for all new private -purpose bonds. • Senators Wyden and Coats have introduced the Bipartisan Tax Fairness and Simplification Act of 2011 which would replace tax-exempt bonds with taxable bonds and a tax credit. • The Congressional Budget Office has released a report on revenue -raising opportunities that includes a proposal to replace the tax exemption of municipal bonds with a direct subsidy for issuers. A St. Lucie County financial advisor has estimated that the difference in the rate of earnings that local governments would need to offer prospective buyers of their taxable bonds would depend on the market, but may be roughly 1.35 percent more for those offerings. On $10 million borrowed, this would likely cost $1,660,000 over a 20 year term, a cost that would be borne by local taxpayers. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would threaten the tax exemption on state and local bonds.

LUCIE COUNTY: Currently, retailers are only required to collect sales tax in states where they have brick -and -mortar stores. The burden then falls to consumers who are required to report to state tax departments any sales taxes they owe for online purchases. Often, consumers do not report those purchases when completing their tax returns. As a result, local retailers who employ local residents are at a competitive disadvantage because they must collect sales taxes while out-of-state retailers, including many large online and catalog retailers, in effect give their customers a discount by collecting no state or local sales taxes. And, consumers are left with the confusing, yet legal responsibility to report the sales taxes owed on online purchases on their tax returns. The current sales tax system is perceived as being unfair to brick -and -mortar retailers that employ local residents, including local stores'as well as national chains like Best Buy or Home Depot. It is also a drain on local government revenues. In 2012, uncollected sales tax is estimated to cost local governments $23 billion nationwide. To correct this inequity, S. 1832 has been introduced in the Senate during the 1120' Congress and is seen as having the best chance of becoming law. The bi-partisan legislation is currently co -sponsored by 11 Senators, and for the first time has the backing of some major online retailers such as Amazon.com. In the House, H.R. 3179 is a similar, bi-partisan bill that also has gained traction. To protect small, online retailers, both pieces of legislation exempt sellers who make less than $500,000 in total remote sales to qualify for an exemption and not required to collect the tax. Local, state, and national business groups, such as the Florida Chamber of Commerce, Associated Industries of Florida, Florida TaxWatch, Florida Retail Federation, and Amazon.com have all recently spoken out in favor of this legislation. Two Florida Republicans and one Democrat in the House are also co-sponsors of the legislation. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support S. 1832 and H.R. 3179 in order to allow for the lawful collection of sales taxes on online and catalog purchases.

For instance, if Expedia or a similar purveyor were to pay $60 for a room in St. Lucie County and then sell that room to a consumer for $100, they would be able to, under the proposal, only remit $6 dollars to the local government instead of $10 (using a 10 percent bed tax for illustrative purposes). In late 2009, 17 Florida counties filed an action against a number of online travel companies alleging that the companies have failed to collect and/or pay taxes under the respective tourist development tax ordinances. In 2011, St. Lucie County collected $2.4 million in transient occupancy taxes, which is used to support the tourism industry in our region. This level of funding underscores the importance of this revenue source and the need to ensure it is not constrained by detrimental legislation. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would exempt Internet travel brokers from paying taxes on the full room rate. (retail rate) paid by the consumer, thereby costing St. Lucie County and its political subdivisions the opportunity to collect the appropriate Transient Occupancy Taxes from visitors to the region.

LUCIE COUNTY: The Economic Development Administration (EDA) is primarily a granting agency that funds economic development projects throughout the country. Successful projects usually leverage roughly 200 new jobs and $24 million in private investment for every $1 million of EDA investment. St. Lucie County has secured these funds in the past for economic development projects. More recently, in December 2010, St. Lucie County submitted a grant application to the EDA to help fund an infrastructure project at the Treasure Coast Research Park. The County requested $1,009,890 in Federal funds and is offering a cash match of $2,596,860. EDA initially approved the grant, but later rescinded the application due to challenges related to securing private sector commitments of job creation. The President's Deficit Commission, as well as more recent Congressional proposals, has proposed the elimination of EDA, as its mission is seen as duplicative by some. In mid-2011, the Senate failed to pass S. 782, the "Economic Development Revitalization Act of 2011," which would have reauthorized the Economic Development Administration (EDA) through 2015. EDA's authorization expired in September 2008, but funding via the appropriations process has kept it functioning without an authorization. In addition to reauthorizing EDA, the Senate legislation would increase the authorized funding for the program from $300 to $500 million annually. Despite the failure to pass the legislation, the EDA will continue to operate through the annual appropriations process if provided sufficient funding by Congress. In Fiscal Year 2011, Congress provided $283 million for the EDA. In Fiscal Year 2012, after the Administration proposed $324 million, Congress ultimately provided $257 million in funding.

The funds provide for a range of services and activities to assist the needs of low-income individuals including those addressing employment, education, better use of available income, housing, nutrition, emergency services and/or health. In St. Lucie County, the Community Services Division administers CSBG funding, which is the most flexible funding source the County has for addressing self-sufficiency initiatives. The program has income requirements, yet is not an entitlement program, thereby allowing the County to work with clients that are highly motivated to reduce their dependence on public benefits. In Fiscal Year 2010, funding for CSBG was $700 million, from which the County received $166,461, plus an additional $468,878 from additional funding provided via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. In Fiscal Year 2011, Congress provided $678.64 million for the program, from which the County received $157,579. In Fiscal Year 2012, Congress provided the program with the same amount as in 2011. The Low Income Home Energy Program (LIHEAP) provides heating assistance to low-income households. Also administered in St. Lucie County, LIHEAP is the only lifeline for some of the most impoverished families and seniors in the community. While LIHEAP is often thought of as being a program benefitting northern states, it is equally important in Florida due to the expense of cooling a residence during summer months of excessive heat. In Fiscal Year 2010, Congress provided $5.1 billion for LIHEAP. St. Lucie County residents should have been eligible for $1.79 million from the program during the year. In Fiscal Year 2011, Congress provided $4.7 billion for LIHEAP. For Fiscal Year 2012, Congress provided the LIHEAP program with $3.48 billion, a significant reduction in funding which will mean relatively fewer funds for St. Lucie County's program. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate funding for both the Community Services Block Grant and the Low Income Home Energy Program.

LUCIE COUNTY: St. Lucie County and its two largest cities receive direct allocations of funding from two Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) formula programs: the HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) and Community Development Block Grants (CDBG). HOME funds are designed to create affordable housing for low-income households and are awarded annually as formula grants to participating jurisdictions, including St. Lucie County (in partnership with Martin and Indian River counties). HUD establishes HOME Investment Trust Funds for each grantee, providing a line of credit that the jurisdiction may draw upon as needed. The program allows local governments to use HOME funds for grants, direct loans, loan guarantees or other forms of credit enhancement, or rental assistance or security deposits. CDBG is a flexible grant program that provides communities with Federal funding to address a wide range of unique community development needs. The CDBG program provides annual grants on a formula basis to units of local government and states, including the cities of Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie. In Fiscal Year 2012, HOME was reduced by 38 percent, from $1.6 billion in Fiscal Year 2011 to $1 billion in 2012. In Fiscal Year 2011, St. Lucie County and its partners received $627,909 in HOME funding, while in Fiscal Year 2012, the counties received $468,982. Similarly, CDBG funding was cut by nearly 12 percent, from $3.3 billion in Fiscal Year 2011 to $2.948 billion in Fiscal Year 2012. In Fiscal Year 2011, the County's cities received a total of $1,254,845, while in Fiscal Year 2012, they received $1,241,475. The seemingly low reduction in funding masks the fact that Fort Pierce faced a 22 percent reduction, while Port St. Lucie's allocation actually grew by 20 percent. HUD explains that this is due to changing demographics in each community as well as changes to the type of data they use to make their funding decisions. Since Fiscal Year 2010, HOME funding has been cut by 48 percent and CDBG funding has been cut by 25 percent. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate funding for both the HOME Investment Partnerships and the Community Development Block Grant programs because of their critical role in the County's overall efforts to support those that are least fortunate.

PACE is a financing tool that allows a homeowner to receive low -interest financing for energy efficiency and renewable energy improvements, thereby saving that homeowner money on their utility bills. PACE financing is repaid through a voluntary long-term assessment on a homeowner's property taxes over a 15- 20 year time period. If a homeowner sells their property, the repayment obligation, as well as the benefits of the energy improvements, transfers to the next homeowner. In 2010, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac chose to stop underwriting mortgages with PACE assessments. Because they underwrite nearly ninety percent of new mortgages, this has brought very successful PACE programs to a halt. H.R. 2599, the PACE Assessment Protection Act of 2011 would restore the right of local governments to establish PACE programs and would require that local governments follow prudent standards to ensure that homeowners can afford any PACE assessments. The legislation also protects Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from potential losses. St. Lucie County has already implemented a local conservation initiative similar to the PACE program. Partially initiated by grant funding from the Department of Energy, the Solar and Energy Loan Fund is a Community Development Financial Institution that offers financing for homeowners to make energy - efficiency enhancements and investments in renewable energy. H.R. 2599 has more than 50 co-sponsors, including both Democrats and Republicans in Florida such as Representatives Hastings and Rooney. In the Senate, Senator Boxer (CA) introduced S. 3642 in the Illy Congress. While she has yet to reintroduce the bill in the 1120' Congress, she is expected to do shortly. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support H.R. 2599 and any companion legislation in the Senate to support the creation of PACE -style programs in St. Lucie County.

FEDERAL ISSUE: Offshore Energy Exploration BACKGROUND,• HOW IT MAY AFFECT ST._ LUCIE COUNTY: Active energy drilling currently occurs in both the western and central Gulf of Mexico. However, nearly the entire eastern Gulf is protected from drilling until 2022 by the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GOMESA). Drilling does not yet occur off of the Atlantic Coast of Florida. State waters in the Atlantic extend 3 miles from shore. The Federal government controls waters beyond that point. In the 112t' Congress, the House of Representatives voted to dramatically expand offshore oil drilling in an effort to lower gas prices and increase domestic revenue. Specifically, the House passed three pieces of legislation that would reverse all current oil moratoriums (H.R. 1229), require the Department of Interior to revisit oil projects that were rejected after the Deepwater Horizon spill (H.R. 1230), and make acreage of the Outer Continental Shelf that is currently unavailable to lease available for drilling, including the Atlantic Coast (H.R. 1231). Similar legislation (S. 953) was introduced in the Senate, but it failed to receive the necessary votes to be considered. The House has also recently proposed to link additional spending on surface transportation to increased revenues from additional offshore energy exploration. Late last year, the Administration proposed its Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Oil and Gas Leasing Program for 2012-2017. Within the program, the Administration does not propose to lease any areas in the Atlantic for oil and gas drilling. They do, however, indicate that there is "ongoing seismic analysis to determine resource potential" in the Atlantic. In response to the plan, 180 members of Congress from both political parties sent a letter to the Administration asking that they open up more areas of the OCS to drilling, including areas off the Atlantic Coast of Virginia. Four members of the Florida House delegation signed the letter. If Congress and the White House experience a political shift due to the 2012 elections, the chances of increased energy exploration in areas that have been protected in the past may significantly increase. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor the potential expansion of offshore energy exploration in Florida's Federal waters.

LUCIE COUNTY: The sponsors of H.R. 567 (Nunes, CA) and S. 347 (Burr, NC), the Public Employee Transparency Acts, believe that public pensions are significantly underfunded and are aiming to ensure what they believe will be more realistic asset projections compared with promised liabilities. Specifically, the legislation would require additional reporting of assets and liabilities and more significantly, require that assets in a public plan such as the Florida Retirement System are projected to grow at the rate of Treasury securities instead of rosier projections tied to historic stock market indices, thereby greatly increasing plan liabilities. This might require projected growth rates of less than 1 percent annually instead of growth rates between 6 and 8 percent, which is a common projection in many states. The legislation would also disallow any future Federal bailout of public pension plans. Ultimately, the legislation would likely make pension plans more expensive to participate in for local governments, yet would also aim to make them more secure. More recently, Sen. Orrin Hatch (UT), the Ranking Member of the Senate Finance Committee, released a report saying that public pension debt "threatens America" and that "defined benefit pension plans are inappropriate for state and local governments." He concluded his report by stating his intention to introduce a legislative solution in the near future. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor all Federal legislative proposals related to public pensions, including H.R. 567 and S. 347, the Public Employee Pension Transparency Act, all of which could significantly impact the Florida Retirement System.

VI -DI Background: The Gazzara Retail Building is located at the southwest corner of Angle Road and Avenue A. The on - site improvements consisted of a 4,200-square foot retail building, a parking area and stormwater retention areas. The developer was required to construct off -site improvements within the Angle Road and Avenue A rights -of -way. The required improvements consisted of concrete sidewalk, drainage and roadway improvements. This work has been completed. Inspection by staff resulted in a punch list of items needing additional work. The developer's contractor has successfully completed all punch list items. The developer's engineer has issued a certification of completion together with record drawings (Attachment "A"). The developer has executed the Maintenance Agreement (Attachment B ). The one year and 30-day maintenance period begins upon Board acceptance of these improvements. Staff has reviewed the written documentation and field verified the completion of the punch list items in conformance to the project's plans and specifications. Recommendation: Board approval of the conditional acceptance of the off -site improvements and Maintenance Agreement, release of surety in the amount of $83,437.11 and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

Retail Building have been completed in substantial conformance with our design documents and provisions of the County's permit regulations. Please note the following construction plan deviations that have been completed as per found unknown and specific field conditions by the contractor under the supervision of the engineer of record and as agreed upon by the county engineering inspector: 1. A Florida Power and Light conduit bank was found; to which inverts were slightly modified between DS-6 and the existing manhole to accommodate the drainage pipe and its proximity to the existing water main. 2. The Avenue A sidewalk was installed at a grade slightly higher than proposed; to which the flow line was modified to be along the edge of shoulder at DS-3. 3. Again, the Avenue A sidewalk was installed at a grade slightly higher than proposed; to which a hand rail was installed according to the Florida Department of Transportation Index 870 adjacent to areas of excessive slope. Specifically this hand rail was installed on both the west and east sides of the site entrance drive along Avenue A. The west hand rail section is 15 lineal feet, while the east hand rail section is 21 lineal feet. 4. The hand rail also required a custom thickened edge concrete sidewalk detail; to which one was specifically designed and utilized for construction. Please see the attached signed and sealed detail. 5. An oak tree near the corner of Avenue A and Orange Avenue was determined to be in conflict with the sidewalk pedestrian clearance; to which the oak tree was removed without required mitigation per St. Lucie County staff. 183S 20th Street 1600 W Eau Gallie Blvd., Suite 203 806 Delaware Avenue Vero Beach, FL 32960 Melbourne, FL 3293S Ft.

VII-A Background: To expedite the widening. of 1-95 in St. Lucie County, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has utilized the design/build concept. The segment of 1-95 between Indrio Road (SR614) and the St. Lucie County line has been awarded to the team that includes the Capron Trails mine owned by Dickerson Florida, Inc. This mine operates under a mining permit issued by the Board of County Commissioners. The hours of operation, per the permit, are 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. In order to reduce the costs of the construction, as well as to lessen the impact on the traveling public, the design/build team proposes to complete much of the work at night. They have requested the additional hours of 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. in order to facilitate this construction. See correspondence from FDOT's contractor Dickerson Florida Inc. (Attachment A). A modification of the mining permit is necessary in order to permit an increase of hours of operation to provide material at night (Attachment B). The modification will be addressed as an addendum to the existing mining permit. This request is very similar to the previous request of the Florida Resources' Fort Pierce South mine for the 1-95 link to the south. Correspondence to all of the neighboring property owners within a 500-foot radius of the mine has been sent advising of the proposed increase of hours and tonight's Public Hearing (Attachment C) and Notice has been advertised in the Fort Pierce Tribune (Attachment D) as well. Recommendation: Board approval of the Capron Trails mine request to increase their hours of operation to allow night hauling in support of the adjacent 1-95 Widening Project only, as outlined in this agenda memorandum.

The project is approximately 4 miles in length. The project requires imported embankment and base material. Dickerson has agreements in place to source this material from Stewart Mining and Dickerson Aggregates Indrio Road mine. The haul distances to the project are less than four miles and the anticipated truck traffic and routing may require the usage of existing interchanges to the north and south of Indrio Road as turnaround points. It is not anticipated that any significant truck traffic will utilize arterial roadways except for Indrio Road west of 1-95. Dickerson's contract terms and conditions with the FDOT stipulate that any lane closures on I- 95 required for the construction of the project can only occur between the hours of 10:00pm and 6:00 am from Sunday through Thursday. The use of lane closures to facilitate the transport of imported materials to the project greatly enhances the safety of both the traveling public and the workers present on the project. Lane closures allow the delivery trucks to properly decelerate, enter the work area; and accelerate when leaving the work area. Without benefit of lane closures the trucks must operate at speeds significantly different than the majority of the accompanying traffic on 1-95. While this type of operation is allowable and acceptable it is not the most desirable condition. It has come to my attention that both Stewart Mining and Dickerson Aggregates operate under St. Lucie County permit guidelines that stipulate hours of operation and that commercial activity can only occur during the specified hours. This limitation prevents Dickerson from utilizing the allowable lane closure time frames for the import of material into the 1-95 project. P.O. Box 910 ® Fort Pierce, Florida 34954-0910 (772) 429-4444 Fax (772) 429-4445 www.dickersonflorida.com Dickerson respectfully requests that the County consider a specific project exemption for these operational permit conditions for both Stewart Mining and Dickerson Aggregates with the understanding that truck traffic associated with the exemption will be confined to the 1-95 corridor and associated interchanges. There is no expectation that this exemption will present an adverse impact to county roadways by virtue of undue truck traffic during the overnight hours. The project completion date is currently January 2013, with consideration for weather days and holidays yet recognized, the actual completion should be no later than March 2013. Dickerson appreciates the consideration of the County in regards to this issue. Should you require further information in regards to this issue please contact me directly.

VII-B Backaround: Ben Guettler, on behalf of Guettler Brothers Construction, LLC has submitted an application requesting an adjustment to the boundary of the subject Conditional Use Permit (CUP) originally approved by the Board of County Commissioners on June 6, 2006. A Class I Mining Permit was concurrently approved that allowed the borrow pit to be mined for a period of six years. A modification to the existing mining permit is also required for the project and is scheduled for Board consideration following this item. The approved Conditional Use Permit allows the mining of sand from two borrow pits for the purpose of providing fill for the State Road 70 (SR 70) road widening project. The mining operations are located on the south side of State Road 70, approximately 1,500 feet east of VPI Grove Road in close proximity to the SR 70 construction project. Since the original approval, the applicant has been selected to provide fill for an additional phase of the. SR 70 construction project that requires modification to the conditional use permit. The additional fill material will come from an increase in the width and depth of excavations within the conditional use boundary. While the conditional use boundary will expand in some areas, the overall conditional use area will be reduced from 70.40 acres to 68.09 acres. During the course of the previous mining activities, excavations inadvertently occurred beyond the approved conditional use boundary. The proposed conditional use modifies the conditional use boundary to incorporate those previously mined areas to address the existing conditional use permit inconsistency. The adjustment also identifies staging areas for the operations and adds Phase 3 to the project. No changes to the haul road are proposed other than identifying existing staging areas along the haul road which expands the width in a small area close to SR 70. The haul road for the mining operation is located approximately 1,500 feet east of VPI Grove Road on the south side of State Road 70. The haul road extends 4,000 feet south to the southern end of the mining operation and conditional use boundary. A proposed condition of approval prohibits mining trucks from utilizing VPI Grove Road or Carlton Road and limits the hauling of fill to the SR 70 construction project. This is consistent with the existing Certificate of Capacity Exemption which continues to be in effect concurrent with the conditional use permit. The purpose of the condition is Guettler Borrow Pit CUMJ620114292 March 6, 2012 Page 2 to allow the impacts related to any future proposal for the general hauling of fill material, or the use of these two roads to be evaluated and addressed. The applicant has indicated the mining operation is for the SR 70 construction project only and has no objection to this condition. In conjunction with the application for a Conditional Use Permit, the applicant has also applied for a Mining Permit through the St. Lucie County Public Works Department. All activities authorized by the mining permit must be consistent with the approved Conditional Use Permit or a new or modified Conditional Use Permit may be required. Public Works and Planning Division staff have coordinated the review of the two applications and each order granting approval includes cross references to the other permit. Staff's review of this petition has determined that the proposed major adjustment is in substantial conformance with the existing conditional use permit and conforms to the standards of review as set forth in Section 11.07,00 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code and is not in conflict with the goals, objectives, and policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Board adoption of Draft Resolution No.12-012, granting a Major Adjustment to an Approved Conditional Use Permit known as Guettler Borrow Pit, as outlined in the attached memorandum.

This proposal results in reducing the overall condi- tional use boundary from 70.40 acres to 68.09 acres and increasing the ex- cavations and ultimate lake area from 23 acres to 54.1 acres. Access to the borrow pits will continue to be from an existing haul road with gated access along SR 70. The mining operation is part of 1,284 contiguous acres owned by the same property owner. Background The conditional use permit was origi- nally granted on June 6, 2006 for a sand mining operation to provide fill only for the State Route 70 road wid-. ening project. The mining operation will continue to solely be used for the State Road 70 construction project. Recommended Action Board adoption of Draft Resolution No.12-012, granting a Major Adjust- ment to an Approved Conditional Use Permit known as Guettler Borrow Pit, as outlined in the attached memoran- dum. Notice Requirements A public hearing notice was placed in the St. Lucie News Tribune, letters sent to property owners within 500 feet of the subject property, and a sign placed on the property.

Environmental Resources Department Final Report TO: Diana Waite, Planning & Development Services Department THROUGH: Karen L. Smith, Environmental Resources Department Director FROM: Jennifer Evans, Senior Environmental Planner Amy Griffin, Environmental Regulations and Lan s Division Managerx� DATE: February 3, 2012 SUBJECT: Guettler Borrow Pit Major Adjustment to a Conditional Use CUMj 620114292 Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the December 9, 2011 Planning and Development Services' date -stamped submittal. The applicant requests approval of a Major Adjustment to a Conditional Use to amend the mining area limits approved through Resolution No. 06-049 in order to include an expansion of the Phase I and II borrow pits and addition of a Phase III excavation area. Environmental Resources staff conducted a site inspection on August 5, 2011. The project site is located in western St. Lucie County east of VPI Road and south of State Road 70. The proposed conditional use boundary consists of improved pasture with a few scattered native trees; agricultural- ditches and two other surface waters, including the existing Phase I borrow pit; and a graded dirt access road. On October 31, 2007 the Environmental Resources Department noted active mining operations on the subject parcel without an approved vegetation removal permit or exemption as required per Resolution No. 06-049. The applicant was cited and issued an After -the -Fact Vegetation Permit (Permit #20090211) after the required conditions of approval had been addressed. During the course of mining, the applicant expanded their footprint slightly beyond the approved conditional use boundary. The proposed conditional use adjustment, in part, will revise the boundary to include the area of Phase I which has already been mined. Findings The site is listed as an Environmentally Significant Land according to the St. Lucie County Native Habitat Inventory records; however, the site has been historically impacted by agricultural activities and no intact native habitat exists within the proposed project area; only a few scattered native trees remain. All cabbage palms within the impact area are proposed to be relocated onsite. There are no wetlands located within the proposed Conditional Use boundary; however, there are three wetlands located within the parent parcel. No impacts are proposed to these wetlands and monitoring provisions have been included in the South Florida Water Management District Environmental Resources Department Final Report Guettler Mine Conditional Use January 2012 Environmental Resource Permit to ensure no secondary impacts occur as a result of the adjacent mining activities. Potential listed species impacts include the federally listed crested caracara and woodstork. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reviewed these impacts as part Phase I of this project. The previously approved Crested Caracara Protection Plan shall be updated and adhered to for all future phases of this mining operation. In addition, the Reclamation Plan will improve wading bird habitat through the establishment of littoral areas. No listed species impacts are anticipated; however, due to the presence of cabbage palms and other surface waters onsite, a review and approval from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding potential crested caracara and woodstork impacts is required. The proposed mining activities are set -back of approximately 600 feet from Okeechobee Road: Existing vegetation, including pine flatwoods and wetland areas, will screen the proposed mining operations from the adjacent roadway. Therefore, additional landscaping along Okeechobee Road is not required. In addition, no residential properties are located within 200 feet of the proposed mining area; therefore, no additional perimeter landscaping is required. Conditions of Approval 1) The applicant shall provide the Environmental Resources Department -approved Lake Area Monitoring and Management Plan (LAMMP) with an attached affidavit, and a cashier's check, payable to the Clerk of the Court for the appropriate recording fees, to the County Attorney for .review and approval within 90 days of conditional use approval or prior to issuance of a Vegetation Removal Permit or Exemption, whichever comes first. 2) The applicant shall have obtained and provided the Environmental Resources Department with all required federal and state permits and approvals, including but not limited to the Environmental Resource Permit, South Florida Water Management District Water Use Permit, US Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 Permit, US Fish and Wildlife Service approval, and St. Lucie County mining permit prior to issuance of a Vegetation Removal Permit or Exemption. If federal or state agency compliance requires modification to the mining plans or implementation of conservation measures, the applicant will promptly modify the plans and submit to St. Lucie County for review and approval. The County's development approval shall not prevent compliance with any federal or state agency requirements. Please contact Jennifer Evans at 772-462-3862 if you have any questions.

Describe the reason for the proposed Conditional Use or Adjustment: We are seeking a Major Adjustment to the referenced Conditional Use for the new proposed limits and expansion of the Phase II Borrow Pit and the addition of the Phase III Borrow Pit, resulting in a total lake area of t 54.1 acres in the final constructed scenario. Due to the above proposed changes to the limits of the Borrow Pits, the Conditional Use Boundary is being reduced from 70.4 acres to 66.2 acres. 2. Is the proposed Conditional Use or Adjustment in conflict with any portion of the LDC or the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan? The proposed Conditional Use Major Adjustment is not in conflidt with any portion of the LDC or the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. 3. What are the existing uses in the immediate area and how is the proposed Conditional Use or Adjustment compatible with the existing uses in the area? The project site has an existing Phase I Borrow Pit, and has already received prior approval for the previously proposed Phase II Borrow Pit. The property surrounding the project area is used as agricultural land and is owned by the same property owner. The proposed adjustment will maintain the existing uses in the area and expand the amount of Borrow Pit area. At its closest point, the Conditional Use Boundary is over 1,617 feet from the nearest property line. Page 1 of 2 4/ Revised: May 27,.2010 � �' l i'v(sibm Supplement 1, 4. What conditions have changed in the immediate area that warrants consideration of this Conditional Use or Adjustment application? The adjustment -is expanding the area of the Phase II Borrow Pit, so that the sand material can be utilized as borrow fill for the adjacent State Road 70 Widening project. 5. What.are the anticipated impacts of the proposed Conditional Use or Adjustment on the existing and future public facilities in this area, such as roads, transit, water, sewer, drainage, parks, etc.? No impacts are anticipated with the proposed adjustment on the existing or future public facilities in this area, as there are no public facilities in or near the project limits. 6. What are the anticipated environmental impacts of the proposed Conditional Use or Adjustment? If no adverse impacts are anticipated, please explain why. No adverse impacts are anticipated for the proposed adjustment. There are no wetlands within the CU Boundary and at its closest point the boundary is +/-232 ft away from wetlands. Additionally the proposed project outfall discharges into an existing field ditch that ultimately discharges into the SFWMD C-23 canal via an existing structure. 7. Please provide any additional information about size, hours, and seasons of operation; :number of employees; number of car or truck trips; equipment utilized; anticipated duration of use; impacts of noise and light; access improvements; hazardous substances utilized; and any other issue that would assist in the evaluation of this application.

TO: Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Donald West, Public Works Directo FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: ITEM NO. Background: Michael Powley, County Engineer March 6, 2012 r Engineering Division MEMORANDUM Guettler Mining Borrow Pit Class II Permit Application VII-C The Guettler Mine is located immediately south of State Road 70 in western St. Lucie County. It was developed in 2006 under a Class I permit. Guettler Brothers Construction is constructing the adjacent State Road 70 improvements for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The material utilized in the roadway construction will create an excavation exceeding the Class I limits. A Class I permit is limited to a mining area of 20 acres or less. This permit class is only valid for six years maximum. Excavation of sufficient material for the FDOT project will expand their mining area to about 60 acres. Therefore a Class I permit is no longer appropriate. In addition, a Class II permit will allow an extension of 20 years. The current Class I permit expires on June 6, 2012. All of the General and Special Conditions are presented on the attached draft mining permit and engineering plans (Attachment A). These conditions are very similar to previous permit applications. An important consideration is the restriction that the excavated materials may only be used on the adjacent SR70 project. Uses beyond that will require additional Board approval at a later date. Also attached is the Environmental Resources Department Final Report (Attachment B). Correspondence to all of the neighboring property owners within a one mile radius of the mine has been sent advising of the proposed expansion and of tonight's Public Hearing (Attachment C) and Notice has been advertised in the Fort Pierce Tribune (Attachment D). Previous Action: June 6, 2006 — Board approved Class I mining permit for a period of six years. November 27, 2007 — Removed condition restricting use to SR 70 construction only. February 7, 2012 — Board approved scheduling a public hearing. Recommendation: Board approval of the Guettler Borrow Pit Class 11 Mining 'Permit. ATTACHMENT A MINING PERMIT Pursuant and subject to the provisions of Sections 6.06.00 and 11.05.11 of the (SLC) St. Lucie County Land Development Code, a Class II Mining Permit is hereby issued to Guettler Brothers Construction, LLC, 4401 Whiteway Dairy Road, Fort Pierce, FL 34947, to mine sand from the following described land in St. Lucie County, Florida.

VII-E Background: The purpose of the proposed text amendment is to incorporate additional public services and facilities into the Zoning District Use Regulations in Land Development Code (LDC) Section 3.01.01 (D). This section currently addresses transportation and utility rights -of -way and allows improvements within the rights -of -way as permitted uses in all zoning districts. The proposed amendment would revise the section to address all public facilities and services, and add those meeting the definition of Essential Services to the improvements allowed in all zoning districts. The intent of the ordinance is to meet an existing need of the St. Lucie County Utilities Division to locate chloramine booster stations on small lots in Indian River Estates and in meeting that need expand the ability to allow other essential services in all zoning districts as permitted uses. Essential Services is herein is defined as: Public facilities either underground or overhead and related to the transmission or distribution systems of water, sanitary or storm sewage, cable, gas, electricity, and public safety, including poles, wires, mains, hydrants, drains, sewer lift stations, pipes, conduits, police or fire call boxes, warning sirens, traffic signals, electronic signals and other similar equipment necessary for the furnishing of adequate service, including stormwater retention or detention facilities, and chlorine injection and potable water booster pump stations. Draft Ordinance No. 12-009 accomplishes the following: • Adds Essential Services to the list of definitions in LDC Section 2; • Amends the zoning district regulations to address non -linear public facilities and services and allows those meeting the definition of essential services in all zoning districts; • Allows Essential Service buildings no greater than 300 square feet in all zoning districts and exempts parcels for these improvements from the lot size, lot width and road frontage requirements; • In residential zones requires that . Essential Services with a building be approved by the Planning & Development Services Director; a Recognizes all existing public services and facilities as permitted uses; and Public Facilities and Services March 6, 2012 Page 2 Adopts the minimum regulations necessary to ensure public services and facilities are = compatible with their surrounding uses. This amendment will address the St. Lucie County Utilities Division proposal to purchase and rezone a 30-foot wide parcel'in Indian River Estates to allow for the installation of a 9 x 30 structure to house a chloramine booster station. The proposed 30-foot wide lot will not meet the dimensional requirements of the Utility Zoning District and the improvements do not meet the existing exemptions for Transportation and Utility Rights of Way.in LDC Section 3.01.0 (D). The St. Lucie County Land Development Code regulates utility uses by zoning district and new utility installations will continue to be located within the U (Utilities) Zoning District. Utilities zoning is compatible with all Future Land Use designations and allowed throughout the County. The types of public facilities and services proposed to be allowed in all zoning districts are generally support improvements that facilitate or enhance the provision of the utility or other public service to the customer. At the February 16, 2012 public hearing on this matter, the St. Lucie County Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the proposed ordinance by a vote of 7 to 0. No public comments were made regarding the ordinance. During staff discussions on this item, concerns were expressed that the proposed ordinance does not provide an opportunity for the Board to review an installation that the Planning & Development Services Director determines should be denied. To remedy this, staff would like the Board to consider a modification that would require the Board's consideration prior to any denial of an essential services building as provided for in the ordinance. This would only apply to those installations in residential areas that include essential service buildings. For example: proposed changes to LDC Section 3.01.01 D(3) could be revised as follows, the revisions are shown in italics and strike through type: 3. _Within residential zoned areas essential service facilities with buildings shall require approval by the Planning & Development Services Director. The Director shall deey forward to the Board of County Commissioners any facility that is determined to weWd likely create an adverse impact on neighboring properties The Board of County Commissioners shall approve or deny the facility based upon their finding of whether or not the facility is likely to create an adverse impact on the surrounding area. Please note, no changes to the clause in the draft ordinance will occur unless directed by the Board. One email expressing concerns with the Draft Ordinance was received and is attached for your consideration. The email expresses concerns related to the installation of stormwater ponds, which would not likely include a building. Staff has reviewed the proposed text amendment and determined that it conforms to the standards of review as set4orth in Section 11.06.03 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code and will further the goals, objectives, and policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Board authorization to schedule the second required public hearing for the Public Facilities and Services Ordinance 12-009 on March 20, 2012 at 9 am, or as soon thereafter as possible. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 DRAFT ORDINANCE NO. 12-009 AN ORDINANCE OF THE ST.

The Board of County Commissioners has determined that coordination with the transportation and utility service providers for gas, electric, water, wastewater and stormwater services within the boundaries of unincorporated St. Lucie County is important. 3. Transportation and utility facilities include uses and improvements that provide essential and necessary public services that are required by their nature to be dispersed throughout the service area, often located in residential neighborhoods and in close proximity to other potentially incompatible uses. 4. The Board of County Commissioners proposes to allow certain public services in all zoning districts while providing the regulations necessary to ensure compatibility with the surrounding area. 5. On February 16, 2012, the Local Planning Agency/Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed ordinance after publishing notice in the St. ' Lucie News Tribune at least 10 days prior to the hearing and recommended that the proposed ordinance be (approved or denied). 6. On March 6, 2012, 2012, this Board held its first public hearing on the proposed ordinance, after publishing a notice of such hearing in the St. Lucie News Tribune on February 22, 2012.

On , 2012 this Board held its second public hearing on the proposed ordinance, after publishing a notice of such hearing in the St. Lucie News Tribune on 12012. 8.

The proposed change (Ordinance No.12-009) to the text of our LDC, while serving a need in SLC, could in my opinion have unintended consequences. You and I both know some slick attorneys would argue that their client has an essential service need that, in some instances would be harmful to the adjoining neighborhood. Then there is always the determination that has to be made as to whether or not it is harmful. Usually these decisions are made by members of "staff' that don't live in the neighborhood of the "improvement". I would rather see each case/need be determined on a case by case basis. This proposed use seems to be acceptable throughout all of SLC, however what might be coming next? Just my opinion.

Essential services are small utility -related services or facilities that help the County or other utility provide service on small parcels of land that would not meet the size requirements for Utility zoning. The specific situation that generated the change involves our utility wanting to site small chloromine booster stations on small lots in several residential neighborhoods. Kara and I both reviewed the ad while it meets the technical requirements for notice we agree with Mr. Hearn that the description could be more complete. As such, staff is going to work out a simple policy to insure that future ads provide a little better insight to what is being proposed.

Outlaw Subject: Legal Notices/Public Hearings Good morning Ms Outlaw, In today's Tribune there is a Notice of Proposed Change to the Text of the SLC Land Development Code. As has been the case in almost all legal notices published by SLC in our local newspaper, this one doesn't fully explain what the county is proposing, in language that the general public can understand. Folks that reside in SLC, but don't generally stay informed with the goings on in our Planning Department, should, in my opinion, be able to read the published legals and get a clear understanding of what is being proposed without calling to get further information. I don't think this would be hard to do, but maybe I am being unrealistic. Please, maybe bring this up with the folks writing these legal publications and see if my concern has any validity.

Utility Amendment: TLDC 1220114368 — Petition of St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners, through Ordinance 12-009, amending the St. Lucie County Land Development.Code to add essential services by amending Section 2.00.00 definitions; and by amending Section 3.01.00 Zoning District Use Regulation to allow minor public facilities and services as permitted uses in all zoning districts. Staff comments and presentation by Diana Waite. Diana Waite, Senior Planner presenting staff comments for a county initiated land development code text amendment for Public Facilities and Services. This item is a public hearing and has been advertised in the Fort Pierce tribune. The purpose and intent of the ordinance is to allow public improvements, to be defined as "Essential Services" as permitted uses in all zoning districts. The amendment was initiated to address an immediate need of the St. Lucie County Utilities Division to install a Chloramine booster station on a small lot in Indian River Estates to provide water quality improvements and cost savings to an existing MSBU. To meet existing needs and allow for future public improvements, the ordinance expands an existing section of the zoning code that currently allows certain linear facilities as permitted uses in all zoning districts. Improvements meeting the definition of essential services will be recognized as permitted uses in all zoning districts, subject to specified standards. The Essential Services definition includes support facilities that provide or enhance public services to residents and are required to be located in all neighborhoods, such as lift stations, stormwater ponds, fire hydrants and the proposed booster station. The definition is based upon the City of Port St. Lucie's definition for Essential Services, with the addition of stormwater ponds, booster stations, and small buildings to address County needs. The proposed ordinance allows small essential service buildings for the purpose of screening an improvement or the storage of materials, subject to specified standards including: • Building shall be no larger than 300 square feet in size; Planning and Zoning Commission February 16, 2012 Minutes DRAFT Page 5 of 5 202 0 Buildings shall comply with the development design standards and landscaping 203 and screening requirements, with provisions for alternative plans to:address 204 security or ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. 205 • In residential zones, all proposed buildings are required to be reviewed and 206 approved by the Planning and Development Services Director, and denied if the 207 building would negatively affect surrounding residents. 208 209 Buildings not meeting the size criteria and standards for essential services would only be 210 allowed when listed as a permitted, conditional or accessory use in the zoning district 211 regulations. 212 213 In reviewing this petition staff has found that the proposed amendment is consistent with the 214 St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan and meets the standards of review set forth in Section 215 11.06.03 of the County's Land Development Code. Staff recommends a recommendation of 216 approval be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for Ordinance 12-009. 217 218 There was a discussion regarding the residential to non-residential fencing requirements. 219 220 Chair Morgan opened the public hearing. 221 No one spoke. 222 Chair Morgan closed the public hearing. 223 224 Mr. Grande stated after considering the testimony presented during the public hearing 225 including staff comments and the standards of review as set forth in Section 11.06.03, 226 St. Lucie County Land Development Code, I hereby move that the Planning & Zoning 227 Commission recommend that the St. Lucie County BOCC grant approval of Ordinance 228 No. 12-009, Public Services & Facilities test amendment because it addresses the 229 need for infrastructure updating through the county. 230 Ms. Townsend seconded the motion. 231 232 The roll was called: 233 Chair Morgan Yes Mr. Reynolds Yes 234 Vice Chair Mundt Yes Ms. Townsend Yes 235 Mr. Lounds Yes Mr. Grande Yes 236 Mr. O'Dell Yes 237 The motion was carried unanimously. 238 239 IV.

III-C The purpose of the proposed text amendment is to incorporate additional public services and facilities into the Zoning District Use Regulations in Land Development Code (LDC) Section 3.01.01 (D). This section currently addresses transportation and utility rights -of -way and allows improvements within the rights -of -way as permitted uses in all zoning districts. The proposed amendment would revise the section to address all public facilities and services, and add those meeting the definition of Essential Services to the improvements allowed in all zoning districts. The intent of the ordinance is to meet an existing need of the St. Lucie County Utilities Division to locate chloramine booster stations on small lots in Indian River .Estates and in meeting that need expand the ability to allow other essential services in all zoning districts as permitted uses. The proposed definition of Essential Services and description of Public Facilities and Services are based upon the City of Port St. Lucie's regulations, but modified to allow the proposed booster station, retention and detention ponds and small buildings. Overall, the proposed ordinance is less restrictive than either the City of Port St. Lucie or the City of Fort Pierce, but standards are proposed to ensure compatibility and to allow denial of an essential service building in a residential area if it is likely to create an adverse impact on surrounding lands. Essential Services is herein is defined as: Public facilities either underground or overhead and related to the transmission or distribution systems of water, sanitary or storm sewage, cable, gas, electricity, and public safety, including poles, wires, mains, hydrants, drains, sewer lift stations, pipes, conduits, police or fire call boxes, warning sirens, traffic signals, electronic signals and other similar equipment necessary for the furnishing of adequate service, including stormwater retention or detention facilities, and chlorine injection and potable water booster pump stations. Draft Ordinance No. 12-009 accomplishes the following: • Adds Essential Services to the list of definitions in LDC Section 2; • Amends the zoning district regulations to address non -linear public facilities and services and allows those meeting the definition of essential services in all zoning districts; Public Facilities and Services TLDC-1220114368 February 16, 2012 Page 2 • Allows Essential Service buildings no greater than 300 square feet in all zoning districts and exempts parcels for these improvements from the lot size, lot width and road frontage requirements; • In residential zones requires that Essential Services with a building be approved by the Planning & Development Services Director; • Recognizes all existing public services and facilities as permitted uses; and • Adopts the minimum regulations necessary to ensure public services and facilities are compatible with their surrounding uses. In making any change to the text of the code, consideration must be given to how it would affect the entire County and not any one location. In reviewing the proposed amendment, staff has considered the application of the proposed booster station as a permitted use in all zoning districts. Based upon our review and discussions with Public Works and Utility staff, most of the improvements defined as Essential Services would be only slightly larger, than lift stations that are now typically sited under the provisions for facilities in rights -of -way. Those public services and facilities involving buildings that do not meet the essential services criteria, including distribution substations, generation plants, treatment plants, or stormwater-pumping stations, will be allowed only when specifically listed as a permitted or conditional use in the zoning district in which it is located. These types of uses are limited to the Utilities Zoning District, with the exception of gas storage & distribution in Industrial Heavy Zoning and solar generation stations in agricultural zoning. The intent of this ordinance is to allow by right those improvements that facilitate or. improve public services and can be compatible with all uses. The amendment is expected to reduce time, cost and uncertainty in locating some small public improvements. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This amendment was initiated to address the St. Lucie County Utilities Division proposal to purchase and rezone a 30-foot wide parcel in Indian River Estates to allow for the installation of a 9 x 30 structure to house a chloramine booster station. The proposed 30-foot wide lot will not meet the dimensional requirements of the Utility Zoning District and the improvements do not meet the existing exemptions for Transportation and Utility Rights of Way in LDC Section 3.01.0 (D). Upon consultation with the County Attorney, Utilities Division and Planning & Development Services staff determined there was a need to amend the code to accommodate the proposed use and similar support facilities. The St. Lucie County Land Development Code regulates utility uses by zoning district and new utility installations will continue to be located within the U (Utilities) Zoning District. Utilities zoning is compatible with all Future Land Use designations and allowed throughout the County. The types of public facilities and services proposed to be allowed in all zoning districts are generally support improvements that facilitate or enhance the provision of the utility or other public service to the customer. STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.06.03, ST. LUCIE COUNTY LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE In reviewing this application for the proposed amendment, the Board of County Commissioners shall consider and make the following determinations: Public Facilities and Services TLDC-1220114368 February 16, 2012 Page 3 A. Whether the proposed rezoning is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code; Staff has determined the proposed text amendment is consistent with the general purpose, goals, objectives, and standards of this Code, the Comprehensive Plan, and the Code and Compiled Laws of St. Lucie County. The amendment will not be in conflict with the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and has met the standards of review in LDC Section 11.06.03. The County currently only allows linear type transportation and utility services in rights -of -way in all zoning districts. Those facilities and improvements not meeting that description are only allowed under specific zoning district regulations as permitted or conditional uses. Most utility facilities are located in the Utilities Zoning District. Currently, a limited number of facilities are allowed in agricultural and industrial zoning, or may be located within planned development zoning districts. The proposed ordinance will not change the requirements for the principle or major facilities, but rather allow supporting public facilities and improvements that are required to be located throughout all service areas by right in all districts, upon meeting specified criteria. This would allow certain small utility improvements meeting the definition of essential services to be located in all zoning districts, rather than require a change in zoning. The following types of essential services would only be allowed upon meeting the following criteria: Essential services involving above ground installations that are necessary to support a legally established use and involves a building shall be permitted upon a demonstration of compliance with all applicable sections of the code, and the provisions below: 1. The cumulative area of essential services buildings must be no greater than 300 square feet. Essential services involving improvements or buildings larger than 300 square feet, or not compliant with this section, shall only be permitted within a zoning district when specially listed as a permitted, conditional or accessory use. Buildings shall be permitted only for enclosure of required infrastructure, for shielding of infrastructure for aesthetic purposes or storage incidental to the essential services use. 2. All essential service parcels and improvements must meet the setback requirements of the zoning district in which they are located; lot width, lot size and road frontage are not required to be met. 3. The improvement shall comply with all applicable resource protection and development design standards, including landscaping and screening requirements. Where necessary increased setbacks, screening, and buffering around the improvement may be required to ensure compatibility with the surrounding zoning district and built environment. All mechanical equipment shall be screened from property zoned residential and public roadways. 4. Within residential zones, essential service facilities with buildings shall require approval by the Planning & Development Services Director. The Director shall deny any facility that would create an adverse impact on neighboring properties. 5. In the event any of the provisions of this section have the effect of prohibiting the installation of an emergency improvement, the Planning & Development Services Director may grant a waiver of the provisions of this section upon determining that strict application of the Code would result in a threat to public safety or welfare. The following table provides a list of the zoning districts where specific utility uses are allowed as permitted or conditional uses under existing regulations. Other public services, including all administrative services, and police, fire and health services are allowed under the County's Institutional Zoning District.

Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan; The proposed text amendment is not in conflict with any element of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan and will further the County's land use and economic development directives by expanding the number of public service improvements permitted in all zoning districts. All Future Land Use designations are compatible with the I (Institutional) and U (Utilities) Zoning Districts that allow public facilities and services. The proposed text amendment specifically furthers the following St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan directives. Future Land Use. Objective 1.1.5: In coordination with other elements of this plan, future development within the Urban Service Area shall be directed to areas where urban and community services/facilities can be provided in the most efficient and compact manner so as to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl. Infrastructure Goal 6A.1: The County shall provide needed public utilities in a manner which provides the most effective, environmentally sound, safe and economic potable systems and promotes orderly, compact urban growth. Infrastructure Goal 6D.1: The County shall provide needed public utilities in a manner which provides the most effective, environmentally sound, safe and economic waste water treatment system and promotes orderly, compact urban growth. Economic Development Element Goal 12.5: Promote patterns of development that allow public services and facilities to be provided more cost-effectively. The proposed definitions and regulations will allow the support facilities to be located where most beneficial to the utility provider and users of the service. These areas are often in residential neighborhoods where the utility provider may want to obtain small strips of land that do not meet the minimum dimensional requirements of the zoning district in which they are located, such as the currently proposed booster station and building. The amendment would exempt parcels for essential services from the lot size,. lot width, and road frontage requirements of the zoning district to allow for the purchase and use of smaller parcels. The setbacks from the property line must still be met, as well as all landscaping, resource protection. standards and site design standards. Alternative designs or additional buffering may be approved where needed to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses or to meet required security measures. In residential areas, an essential services building can be denied if not compatible with the surrounding uses. C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; The proposed text amendment is not inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses. Public services and utilities are currently allowed under all land use classifications. The proposed amendment would only allow support facilities that service the surrounding areas to be located upon meeting specified criteria and demonstration of compatibility with surrounding uses. Those public services with buildings that do not meet the criteria for essential services would require rezoning to utilities or another zoning district that allowed the building as a permitted or conditional use. Public Facilities and Services TLDC-1220114368 February 16, 2012 Page 6 D. Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment; The St. Lucie County Utilities Division has identified a 30-foot wide parcel for the inclusion of the first of four proposed chloramine booster systems to be located within Indian River Estates. The systems will provide water quality improvements and cost reductions to the residents using the water service. Although the booster station is relatively small, a building will be used to house the improvement and store materials. Under the current code a change in zoning to Utilities, which requires a one -acre parcel, would be required to locate the building. With adequate screening and setbacks, the proposed system and similar future utility systems in other areas can be compatible with the surrounding residential uses and result in reduced costs and improved service. The proposed ordinance draws from the City of Port St. Lucie and other communities that allow certain public services and utility facilities in all zoning districts. The primary exception is that the County's ordinance would allow some buildings. The proposed ordinance will allow small buildings upon review and approval by the Planning & Development Services Director. Buildings would be limited to 300 square feet. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities; The proposed amendment does not approve any specific development but rather recognizes essential public services as permitted uses in all zoning districts. These type of support facilities would not result in additional demands on public facilities, but rather improve existing public services. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment; The proposed text amendment would not result in adverse impacts on the natural environment. The proposed text amendment is not expected to increase development pressures on natural areas and does not modify or exempt improvements from any of the County's natural resource protection standards. G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would adversely affect the property values in the area; The proposed amendment is not expected to adversely affect property values. The provision of public facilities and services are improvements that typically enhance the property. H. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative affects of such patterns; The proposed text amendment will result in an orderly and logical development pattern. Only buildings meeting the definition and criteria for essential services would be allowed. The amendment also allows for the denial of an essential service facility with a building when it would likely cause adverse impacts to neighboring property in a residential area. Other new public service and facility buildings are only allowed when listed as a permitted or conditional use in the zoning district in which they are located. Public Facilities and Services TLDC-1220114368 February 16, 2012 Page 7 I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this Code; The proposed amendment is not in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. The proposed amendment will allow public services and improvements that are required to support developments within all zoning districts, while providing adequate protection standards to ensure compatibility. SUMMARY The proposed text amendment will expand the type of public facilities and services that may be located in all zoning districts, including small buildings no greater than 300 square feet in size. All improvements will continue to require . compliance with all applicable code provisions, unless exempted in the ordinance or elsewhere in the code. The majority of new public structures and buildings will continue to only be allowed within zoning districts where the use is listed as a permitted or conditional use. Most will require a change of zoning to the County's Utilities or Institutional Zoning Districts.
