DATE: January 15, 2012
SUBJECT: Permission to File Suit against the following four (4) parcels located in St.

Eustache - Permit #0715619 - 672 SW McCoy Avenue, Port St. Lucie
Yeager - Permit #0806432 - 494 SE Essex Drive, Port St. Lucie
Adjei - Permit #0806812 -1590 SW Mullinax Avenue, Port St. Lucie
Nandkumar - Permit #0716879 -1721 SW Starman Avenue, Port St. Lucie
BACKGROUND:
St. Lucie County has adopted ordinances establishing impact fees so as to assure that new
development bears a proportionate share of the cost of capital expenditures necessary to provide public
buildings, roads and parks in St. Lucie County. On September 6, 2005, the Board of County Commissioners
approved Ordinance No.05-030 which provided for an alternative method for collection of impact fees for
public buildings, roads and parks.
The alternative collection mechanism provided for the County to serve an Impact Fee Statement
notice upon the Fee Payer, If the impact fees were not paid and became delinquent, the County served a
Notice of Lien upon the Fee Payer and the Owner. The Notice of Lien advised that upon failure to pay the
impact fees, the County would record a Claim of Lien with the Clerk of the Circuit Court. Once recorded,
the Claim of Lien constituted a lien against the property.
On February 24, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners granted permission for the County
Attorney to file suit to foreclose said lien(s). The County Attorney's Office began the suit procedure by
sending letters, since March of 2009, to the property owners reminding them of their obligation to pay the
impact fees. As of this date, seven hundred ninety-six thousand, seven hundred four and 91/100
($796,704.91) has been collected by the County as a result of these efforts. In addition, fourteen property
owners paid the fees through Impact Fee Payment Agreements,
On September 20, 2011, St. Lucie County and Port St. Lucie entered into an Interlocal Agreement
whereas the City has agreed to collect the applicable Impact fees prior to issuing a building permit.
The following four parcels are a portion of those that were sent letters and have either not
responded or have indicated that they will not pay the impact fees. They are:

FROM: Mark J. Godwin, Criminal Justice Coordinator
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Creation of new full time position (Lab Specialist) for the St. Lucie County Drug
Screening Lab.
ITEM NO. VI-B-3
Background:
The St. Lucie County Drug Screening Lab opened on July 1, 2008. The Lab has tested many clients
in the public and private sectors. In 2012, the lab conducted over 24,000 tests (see attached graph).
Furthermore, due to an increase in client usage, an immediate need for combining a vacant part time
position with another part time position would result in a new full time position.
If approved, the new full time lab specialist position will be funded from the SLC Lab's operating
budget.
Additionally, the funds to cover the Lab Specialist will be budgeted in the lab operating budget, and
will have no impact on the County budget.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the full time Lab Specialist position be approved.

Park Playground
VI-C2
In the FY12-13 budget, the Board approved $100,000 for the Parks and Special Facilities Division to
provide a new playground at Pepper Park (Equipment Request #13-024) utilizing MSTU funds. In 2009,
due to safety hazards, the old playground, which was originally installed in 1998, was removed. The new
playground will incorporate stainless steel and aluminum wherever possible to make it more resistant to
the harsh salt water environment. The total cost for the Landscape Structures playground package
including freight and installation is $99,553,80. A rendering of the playground is attached. Staff is
requesting approval to piggyback Clay County's contract with Rep Services, Inc. and to purchase and
install playground equipment at Pepper Park. In lieu of informal or formal quotations, or issuance of an
Invitation to Bid, the County may piggyback off of contracts of other governments and agencies to
procure goods and services per section 5.5 of Purchasing Manual.
Recommendation:
Board authorization to piggyback Clay County's contract with Rep Services, Inc. to purchase and
install playground equipment in the amount of $99,553.80; as outlined in this agenda memorandum

VI-1)
Backaround:
Project SwimFly has requested economic development incentives in consideration of its interest in locating an aviation
manufacturing facility, pilot training and mechanical diagnostics operation to St. Lucie County. Project SwimFly is an
existing aviation manufacturing company which is designated as an eligible industry on the County's Qualified Target
Industries (QTI) list. The company is currently in discussion with the Economic Development Council of St. Lucie
County, Inc. on the availability of economic development business incentives.
The intent of Project SwimFly is to hire 75 employees over a three year period at an average annual salary of $32,000
($15.38/hour). The company anticipates an investment of $1.7 million in land, building and equipment.
In consideration of the 75 employees to be hired and its $1.7 million capital investment, Project SwimFly is eligible for
an ad valorem tax exemption phased over six (6) years. Based upon the number of employees to be hired and the
average annual salary, the company is also eligible for a Job Growth Investment Grant in the amount of $146,250
payable over five (5) years ($29,250/year).
Staff is recommending that Project SwimFly receive an ad valorem tax exemption and a Job Growth Investment Grant
with the creation of 75 new jobs. The Job Growth Investment Grant payments will be absorbed into the current JGIG
funding account. This will not require an increase to the upcoming budget.
Recommendation
Board authorization to have the County Administrator send a Letter of Intent to offer Project SwimFly an Ad Valorem
Tax Exemption phased over six (6) years and a Job Growth Investment Grant (JGIG) in the amount of $146,250
phased over five (5) years ($29,250 per year).

SUBJECT: Paradise Park Storm Water Improvements — Phase 3
ITEM NO. VI — E1
Background:
Paradise Park Subdivision consists of approximately 168 acres located on North 15th, 17th, 19th,
21st and 23rd Streets between two drainage canals: South Florida Water Management District
(SFWMD) Canal 25 and Ft. Pierce Farms Water Control District (FPFWCD) Canal 1. The
subdivision was developed in the 1960's before State water quality regulations were developed,
and has poor storm water conveyances and lack of storm water treatment. During rain events, the
storm water outfalls directly into the two canals, both of which discharge into the Indian River
Lagoon by means of Taylor Creek, approximately one -quarter mile away.
Project improvements include drainage swales along the subdivision streets for pretreatment and
conveyance to storm water detention and treatment facilities. Storm water runoff treatment facilities
include dry detention ponds and control structures for discharge of treated runoff to the C-25 and Ft.
Pierce Canals. The proposed storm water conveyances and treatment areas will dramatically
reduce outfall of fresh water and storm water pollutants from Paradise Park into the Indian River
Lagoon.
Phase 1 of this project was completed in May 2007. Phase 2 was completed in June 2010. Phase
3 is presently under construction with an estimated completion in March 2013. The grant allocation
of $1,000,000 has assisted with construction expenses associated with construction of the storm
water conveyance and treatment systems. St. Lucie County's cost share was $1,000,000 totaling
$2,000,000 toward the total project costs for Phase 3 of the Paradise Park retrofit.
Actual construction costs resulted in a reduction of $400,000 from the $1,000,000 grant allocation.
Unused grant funds must be returned to the St. Lucie River Issues Team (SLRIT) Board for
redistribution to other projects. The grant is setup to fund one specific project and the unused funds
cannot be spent on subsequent phases of the Paradise Park Subdivision. However, the funds have
been re -appropriated to the Heathcote Project in St. Lucie County through the SLRIT.
In addition, the original amended grant completion date is January 4, 2013. This modification will
extend the grant deadline to May 4, 2013 and allow the County to complete construction and
recover the remaining funds available from the granting agency.

Solid Waste
MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Ron Roberts, Solid Waste Division Director
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: CDM work authorization No. 9 and CIP 13-036 for Recyclables Processing Facility
ITEM NO. E3
Background:
The Solid Waste Division constructed a construction and demolition debris (C&D) processing facility in
the summer of 2004. At that time the incoming daily C&D tonnage was approximately 250 tons per day.
The system was designed with growth in mind and was capable of processing up to 500 tons per day.
The C&D daily tonnage peaked at 1000 tons per day in 2005.
In 2011 the daily tonnage of C&D dropped to 50 tons per day. Realizing that we had a stranded asset,
staff began considering alternative uses for the equipment. It was determined that with a few
modifications the system could process recyclable materials.
In June 2012 the board approved a recyclables processing fee with an implementation date of August 1
2012. Since that date we have been processing recyclables and C&D debris on alternate days.
Since the implementation date of the recyclables program the tonnage of this material and C&D debris
have doubled. Staff has determined that these increases together with projected growth in both streams
warrant the consideration of the design and construction of a recyclables processing facility. This would
allow for the processing of both streams at the projected levels.
Previous Action: N/A
Recommendation:
Board approval of CDM Work Authorization No. 9 for professional engineering services to assist St.
Lucie County Solid Waste with the design, permitting, bidding and construction administration for the
proposed recyclables processing facilities for a total of $452,975, approve CIP13-036 and authorize the
Chairman to execute documents as prepared by the County Attorney.

Verada Ditch Improvements South of Calmoso Drive
VI-E4
The Verada Ditch is a County -owned drainage facility that lies largely within the city limits of Port St.
Lucie. It was constructed many decades ago by the General Development Corporation. The ditch
provides vital stormwater conveyance for many square miles of residential neighborhoods and the
associated roadways.
In 2008, Tropical Storm Fay severely impacted the Verada Ditch. Significant lengths of the
embankments were eroded and collapsed. Initial estimates of the cost to repair the canal slopes quickly
summed to the multi -million dollar level. These repairs were not anticipated in the Capital Improvement
Plan project list.
St. Lucie County was very fortunate to receive financial assistance from the National Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS). The NRCS provided slightly more than $4 million. The County provided
a 25% match that brought the project budget to about $5.4 million. The County was responsible for any
funding above the grant amount. The funds were provided with the stipulation that work must be
completed by July 18, 2009.
The work was divided into two similarly -sized projects. The southern portion was awarded to Ranger
Construction Industries in the amount of $3.03 million on March 24, 2009.
The project was completed on time and within the established budget. Upon completion, NCRS
reviewed the completed work and they too found it to be in conformance to the plans and specifications
and to have been completed within the allotted time frame. However, it has only recently been noted
that this project was not presented to the Board for acceptance. There are no issues associated with
our grant funds nor with contractor performance. While there are issues associated with the Verada
Ditch, these are not associated with the contractor. An agenda item to address the current issues will
be forthcoming in February. It is staff's request for the Board to accept the project at this time.

DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Bid No. 13-007, Aquatic Vegetation Control Services
ITEM NO. VI-E6
Background:
On December 5, 2012, submittals to Bid No. 13-007, Aquatic Vegetation Control Services, were
opened. The purpose of this bid is for mowing and aquatic weed control of thirty storm water
retention and detention areas and sixteen drainage swales and canals under the direction of the
Public Works Department. In addition, the bid contains pricing to maintain nine storm water
retention and detention areas under the direction of the Parks, Recreation and Facilities
Department and pricing to perform water lettuce control for Mosquito Control and Coastal
Management Services. Five bids were received; 274 companies were notified and 34 bid
documents were distributed.
The project was bid in accordance with Local Preference Ordinance No. 09-005. Under the
ordinance, bids are awarded to the lowest responsive bidder. When the lowest bidder is a non -
local business and a bid from a local business is within 5% of it, the local preference provision is
triggered. The local business is allowed to match the price of the non -local business; thereby
winning the bid.
DeAngelo Brothers, Inc. dba Aquagenix of Riviera Beach submitted the lowest total bid for the
three-year contract period as shown on the attached bid tabulation sheet. There was no local
bidder within five percent of DeAngeleo Brothers' bid. Therefore, staff is recommending
approval to award Bid No. 13-007 for Aquatic Vegetation Control Services to the lowest
responsive and responsible bidder, DeAngelo Brothers, Inc. dba Aquagenix of Riviera Beach.
Recommendation
Board approval to award Bid No. 13-007 for Aquatic Vegetation Control Services to the lowest

C.A. NO: 12-1518
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Code Enforcement Case No. 72784,1707 Wyoming Avenue, Fort Pierce, FL
BACKGROUND:
St. Lucie County has received code compliance complaints from the neighbors of this
property at 1707 Wyoming Avenue, Fort Pierce, FL (the "Property") and have exhausted all
avenues to gain compliance.
The Property was cited by Code Enforcement on July 10, 2012 in Case No. 72784. The
Property was found to be in violation of Section 1-9-32(D) Tall Grass of the St. Lucie County Code
and Compiled Laws. It was requested that the owner mow and maintain the entire property for
excessive overgrowth of grass and weeds.
The violations continue to exist. The conditions have created a public health safety and
unsanitary nuisance on this Property. (See photograph attached).
Chapter 67-1998, Laws of Florida, Section 5 finds that all lots in recorded subdivisions in
St. Lucie County, outside of municipalities, will be kept free from debris or any other matter which
by reason of physical conditions or other peculiar characteristics might cause damage to life or

or safety purpose for such property to be cleaned of weeds or othergrowth of materials, including,
boarding and securing all windows and doors, the Board of County Commissioners shall cause a
notice to be delivered requiring abatement of this nuisance. if the nuisance is not abated, the
Board may order those lots to be cleared of materials.

FROM: Richard A. Bouchard, P.E., Senior Coastal Engineer
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Ft. Pierce Shore Protection Project
ITEM NO. II-B
Background:
Ft. Pierce Beach is a 1.3-mile federally authorized Shore Protection Project (SPP) immediately south of
Ft. Pierce Inlet. Capron Shoal, located approximately 4 miles southeast of Ft. Pierce Inlet, has served as
the offshore borrow area for this project since 1999. The shoal currently contains sufficient deposits of
beach compatible sand for future nourishment projects. However, the currently permitted portion of the
borrow area does not provide enough material for the next federal nourishment project expected to occur
in late 2013 or early 2014.
Work Authorization No. 13 (C8-12-632) with Taylor Engineering, Inc. ($181,970) includes the data
collection, engineering design and permitting services necessary to evaluate the remaining sediments
within Capron Shoal, permit a portion of the borrow site for the upcoming nourishment and develop a
borrow area conservation plan to meet the long-term needs of the Ft. Pierce SPP. This scope of work has
been transmitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) for review. Erosion District Reserves will be used to fund this effort with
cost sharing or project credit potentially available from these agencies in the future.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Work Authorization No. 13 with Taylor Engineering and authorization for the Chairman
to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

Sally Ann Berquist, St. Lucie County resident, addressed the Board regarding the "no kill"

and asked for the Board's support in determining our progress and continuing to work

REGULAR AGENDA
Vill. PUBLIC WORKS
Administration:
Port Master Plan Update Phase II Scope approval
Consider staff recommendation to approve of the Port Master Plan Update Phase II
Scope and approval for FDOT/AECOM to proceed with the Master Plan Update.
The Public Works Director provided background information regarding the request for
Board action related to the port for approval of the consultants scope of services. They
are also requesting approval to proceed with the Port Master Plan process. He explained
that at last meeting in the summer of 2012, the Board requested more information on
the scope of services for the consultant and information on the consultant team itself
with regard to proceeding with the Master Plan. The Harbor Advisory Committee has
reviewed the scope document, approved it and recommended that the Board proceed
with the Master Plan. The Fort Pierce City Commission has also reviewed the scope
document and supports proceeding with the Master Plan process.
Jeff Weidner, Department of Transportation, addressed the Board regarding their scope
of services. He went on to explain that since July, they have moved forward with
consultant services and obtained and found funds for an emergency dredging permit
from the Army Corps of Engineers and that is expected to be completed within 45 days.
He explained that in August they got the Spoil Site project underway and that sets the
stage for the Taylor Creek Phase 3 dredging to begin. They are also very close to an
IB
agreement on the Second Street Project that will soon be going to construction. That is
important because these are projects identified in the current Port Master plan; they
are identified and funded. Now it's time to update the plan because there are no other
projects on the table as far as transportation and intermodal and support projects. They
are there tonight to ask if they can move forward with this process. There is one key
date to keep in mind and he asked that the Board consider a vision of future neutral that
won't sway towards port only nor recreation and mega yacht only. The door closes on
July 1 for the next application cycle for the Seaport funding. We are getting closer to
that date and need to put an application together to be approved so he asked that the
Board please keep that in mind. The second parallel effort is working together over a
nine -month period to pull together some community desires and look at different
alternatives for the future of the port.
Commissioner Dzadovsky thanks Mr. Weidner and the Public Works Director for their
hard work on this project. He addressed his concerns and explained that he's
uncomfortable with the motivation to expand the port for cargo. He explained that
comments have been made that the process moving forward, if expanded cargo is not a
main function of the master plan, that Florida D.O.T. would not pay for this process
going forward.
Jeff Weidner explained that the depiction is not accurate and perhaps he has not
communicated well. Moving forward, he has the directive to spend the funds to do a
master plan for this specific location for Seaport uses. If he sets the precedent, with 108
other cities in this district, they would have to do it for everyone. What we're doing has
to include some level of expanded port and that could be rehabbing the existing birth
walls. In order to use these funds and not set a bad precedent to do master planning for
every community in our district, it needs to include that. At the end, it's up to the Board
to adopt the plan. The Board can choose to adopt a plan that does not include cargo.
Commissioner Dzadovsky wanted clarification that if they move forward with the plan
and choose not to expand cargo; where does that leave the Board as far as the costs of
what has been done so far?
Jeff Weidner assured Commissioner Dzadovsky that it would have no effect.
Commissioner Dzadovsky explained that the process is supposed to be open and
transparent. The one concern he has heard from the public is that it's difficult to
prepare to come to a meeting if they don't have advanced notice. They prefer to have
both day and evening meeting so more people can participate. He recommended
accomplishing that by utilizing more advertising including using SLTV and TC Palm.
Jeff Weidner commented that he understands that building trust is huge in getting this
plan to move forward. The first phase of the scope is submitting to the Board a public
involvement plan so that the Board will see what they plan to do and where and when
they plan to do it.
Commissioner Dzadovsky questioned if this provision is something that needs to be
looked at as a Master Plan update or as provision of part of the scope but in 1996 when
the last Master Plan was completed, it was sent to a nonbinding resolution so that the
public could participate in a vote. There was overwhelming support for the Master Plan
with limited cargo. He is unsure if that is something the Board needs to consider after
it's done or if it needs to be part of the scope of work. He feels it's important that the
community weigh in from a County perspective. He would like to move forward with a
non -binding resolution to take the temperature of the community.
Jeff Weidner responded that would be up to the Board and the administration.
5
Commissioner Dzadovsky commented on the environmental concerns. If the Master
Plan is brought forward he would like to bring in environmental groups, professionals
and scientists to review the plans.
Jeff Weidner responded they can take it a step further than that and identify
improvements that would increase activity. The environment may have some mitigation
applications necessary to apply for; they could include those types of mitigation efforts.
Perhaps there are major capital investments that could be done to protect the lagoon.
In addition, they do have environmental experts on the team.
Commissioner Dzadovsky went on to address his concerns regarding safety and spoke of
the recent oil spill as an example. He wants to make sure there's a safety net regarding
environmental side.
Jeff Weidner commented that a discussion on the scope is how the Board can control
what kind of contract they have and with what commodities and with what the level of
concern is with those commodities. Include in the scope some developing mechanisms
for the approval and how they would move forward on what types. He stated that the
Board's concerns are very important and they want to have a credible plan that the
Board has faith in.
Dolores Johnson, President of the St. Lucie Waterfront Council, 429 N 19th St., Fort
Pierce, FL, addressed the Board regarding her concerns that the ships do not empty
their ballasts as required. She addressed dredging and hopes that they can find a
solution that is both economically and ecologically sustainable.
John Arena, St. Lucie County resident, questioned Jeff Weidner about the recent
dredging done by the Core of Engineers; he wanted to know if they were going deeper?
Jeff Weidner responded that the dredging did not exceed the existing draft and was
done on an emergency basis.
Commissioner Mowery commented that there were a couple areas where shoaling has
developed and it had dropped to 17 or 18 feet those areas.
The County Administrator clarified that this was simply maintenance dredging.
Charles Grande, Hutchinson Island Florida resident, addressed the Board and explained
that more than 10 years ago the County put together a Citizens Comprehensive Plan
Committee. That plan that was produced is more than 10 years old and needs to be
updated and resubmitted to the state so we can say we have a current Port Master Plan.
He has looked at the AECOM proposals to look for input from the citizens and it appears
that they are doing the same kind of thing that we did back then. He also stated that Mr.
Weidner is open and above Board about not having any preconceived notions. He feels
that Mr. Weidner wants to reflect the desires of the people of this area. He also stated
that there are other organizations and groups that will participate in the process to
ensure the outcome is consistent with what St. Lucie County wants. He recommended
that people take advantage of this opportunity and also asked that they move forward
and bring the plan up-to-date and provide the current plan to the state.
Commissioner Dzadovsky questioned Mr. Grande about his previous concerns with the
vendor because of their relationship with the cargo industry and wanted to know
whether or not those issues have been addressed.
Charles Grande responded that he did some looking into AECOM to find out who they
were and what their goals were as a consultant. The questioning of Mr. Weidner and
how closely tied this is to a guarantee of cargo expansion; the fact is that the Board gets
make that decision. The plan that has been a proposed is based on what the people tell
them in the information gathering portion so, if we do our jobs right, they're not in a
position to mandate to us what's in our plan. Their position is to recommend to us and
then it's the Board responsibility to approve or disapprove. We the people have
oversight and the elected officials have the final say and he feels that is acceptable plan.
Commissioner Dzadovsky encouraged Mr. Grande to reach out to people to have them
keep an eye on the meetings, voice concerns and provide positive regarding this
process.
Charles Grande responded that he fully intends to do so. He has reached out to Mr.
Weidner and to the AECOM folks and they will be working together closely. The stated
that the important thing to remember is that at the end of the day, this is going to be
our plan.
Jeff Weidner commented that they're looking at what the community would like to see
there including educational facilities and vocational educational facilities. They've talked
about a State of Florida Maritime Academy and other opportunities. They are just
interested in helping to pay for the plan so the community can forward and perhaps get
some state assets to realize that plan.
Commissioner Dzadovsky stated that in researching the original plan there was no
financial support and hopes that this will generate those dollars.
Jeff Weidner stated that they have come through with advanced funds and have fully
funded the Second Street Project. They also fully funded all of the transportation
projects in the last Master Plan. He addressed the marginal impacts and the ripple effect
in the community and feels it is now a better investment for state dollars and they are
putting together a plan to show that impact.
Commissioner Lewis stated that since Mr. Weidner's first visit, it's clear that they are in
agreement that what they're looking for is not telling us how to go on but what our
options may be. She explained that in 1995 when the Waterfront Council came to be, it
was determined that a mixed -used port would come forward. Later in 2002, it turned
out to be a limited cargo determination. Now we need to know what our options are
and update the plan as things have changed. At that time the only way to get funding
was by doing Marine Industrial and things have change quite a bit since then. In the
scope, it specifies that they will facilitate interactive public work sessions and participate
in community meetings. She feels that it's already been stated and these things will
take place. She feels assured that they will have options and is ultimately their
determination to decide which of those options will be accepted, if any, and therefore
she's very comfortable moving forward with this plan.
Commissioner Johnson stated that he went to some of the AECOM meetings and feels
that they're taking into consideration what St. Lucie County wants. He has spoken to the
Longshoremen Association, Beach Association and others and it seems that the people
all want the same thing. He feels this is a great opportunity for the city commissions,
county commissions as well as the cities and surrounding areas to come together and
enjoy this process of working together.
Commissioner Dzadovsky discussed amending the motion to include the items that were
previously discussed such as opening the public meetings to include flexible dates and
times and drafting a document to be reviewed by outside environmental agencies. He
also questioned the non -binding resolution and if it would have to be done during the
scope of work or afterwards?
Jeff Weidner responded that he thinks it's better if the Board determines how and what
they're going to approve. They do not intend to develop a resolution that could be put
on a referendum for ballot.
7
Commissioner Hutchinson commented regarding the motion to amend and feels that
those items are already included in the plan and that it actually goes over and above. In
regard to the referendum, she feels the decision needs to be made by the Board. That's
a discussion for down the road that should not be included in this.
Jeff Weidner wants to be hands -off on the approval process. The final plan does not
have to include any cargo element; it just needs to be included in the process so it is
part of the options that the Board will be looking at.
Commissioner Lewis talked about the 1996 referendum. The citizens agreed to tax
themselves for the purposes of the County purchasing the land rather than it being
purchased by private entities. She is not necessarily looking for a referendum on the use
of the property. The plan was prepared in 2002 through great deal of work. The activists
and the people are passionate about this and she feels that there will be a lot of input.
Commissioner Dzadovsky clarified that he just wanted to know whether or not the plan
has to account for the referendum possibility afterwards.
Commissioner Mowery stated that he is not in favor of a referendum.
It was moved by Commissioner Hutchinson, seconded by Commissioner Lewis approve
of the Port Master Plan Update Phase II Scope and approval for FDOT/AECOM to
proceed with the Master Plan Update and; upon roll call, the vote was as follows: Aye's:
Commissioner Mowery, Commissioner Lewis, Commissioner Hutchinson and
Commissioner Johnson, Nay: Commissioner Dzadovsky, motion carried by a vote of 4 to
1.
IX. COUNTY ATTORNEY
Resolution No. 13-005 - Amendment to the Investment Policy
Consider staff recommendation to adopt Resolution No. 13-005 and authorize the
Chairman to sign the Resolution.
The County Attorney provided background information for Resolution No. 13-005
requesting an amendment to the Investment Policy based on recommendations from
the Investment Committee and advised the Board that staff recommends approval.
The Clerk of The Circuit Court addressed the Board regarding the request for an
amendment to the Investment Policy. He also advised the Board that their priority is
safety, liquidity and yield and they're attempting to make changes that would maximize
their yield with the markets. The Clerk also shared with the Board that the Clerk's Office
has just received two awards; one is a Certificate for Achievement and Performance in
Government Finances. The County Financial Report (CAFR) received an Outstanding
Production Award for the way that we present the information to the Board and to the
public and the Public Financial Report (PAFR) received the same award. He announced
that he will be back before the Board in a few weeks to officially present those awards.
It was moved by Commissioner Dzadovsky, seconded by Commissioner Johnson to
adopt Resolution No. 13-005 and authorize the Chairman to sign the Resolution and;
upon roll call, motion carried unanimously.

ADDITION
X. ADMINISTRATION
Supervisor of Elections Contingency Funding
Consider staff recommendation to approve of Budget Amendment No. 13-001
increasing the Supervisor of Elections 2013 adopted budget from $2,293,764 to
2,598,885.
The County Administrator provided background information regarding Budget
Amendment No. 13-001. She explained the reasons for the unanticipated costs, most of
which were as a result of the 2012 general election. She advised the Board that staff has
recommended approval to increase the Supervisor of Election's budget.
Commissioner Hutchinson commented on a recent e-mail that stated they should be
looking at the Supervisors contingency. She wanted to clarify that none of the
constitutional officers carry a contingency.
The County Administrator responded that there is no contingency in the Supervisor of
Elections budget; however, she does not have the other budgets before her so she
couldn't speak to the other constitutional officer's budgets. She explained that the
unused funds are returned to the Board of County Commissioners. According to the
data, over the last 10 years, the Supervisor of Elections has returned funds each year
and so far that amount has totaled approximately $700,000.
Commissioner Dzadovsky commented that he also received the same email and
addressed the reference to the filing fees that the candidates pay. He wanted to clarify
that the Supervisor of Elections does not keep those funds.
The Supervisor of Elections addressed the Board and expressed her appreciation for
their consideration of her Budget Amendment. She responded to Commissioner
Dzadovsky's question regarding the candidate filing fees and explained that all of that
money goes to the political party and the Elections Commission. The majority to the
state party and about 2% or two thirds goes to the state party and the county party.
Then the Elections Commission gets a portion of that to enforce election laws. The
money simply passes through her office to the state to the parties.
She went on to explain the reason for the budget amendment and expressed
appreciation to the Board for allowing her to present her request.
Commissioner Mowery commented that the public needs to realize, from an expense
standpoint, that there are several areas where the expenses are noted and understand
that most of the expenses were due to the election re -tabulation, recount and ballot
changes. This way the public does not develop misconceptions about the Supervisor's
request.
The Supervisor of Elections agreed with Commissioner Mowery that it is important and
went on to explain that the legislature recently made a decision this year regarding
placing legislative initiatives on the ballot. The law gives a 75 word limit to constitutional
amendments. The legislature made a decision not to send the amendment to the
Supreme Court for approval of the 75 words. If it is not approved by the Supreme Court,
the full text of the constitutional amendment can be placed on the ballot and bypass the
approval of the Supreme Court. That is what the legislature decided to do and as .a
result, it increased the size of the ballot for the entire state of Florida. She commented
that the cost of the ballot is essentially the cost of the election and the additional
expenses incurred because of the ballots included additional mailing and printing costs.
In addition, there were a number of other changes such as the limited number of days
for early voting and accommodations for that with the Electronic Voter ID System that
ensures everyone has only one vote.
PJ
Commissioner Mowery commented that it's important for the public to understand that
the ballot was two pages instead of one and he believes that is the first time that has
happened.
The Supervisor of Elections responded that yes, this was the first time our County's ever
had a two -page ballot.
Commissioner Mowery discussed the concerns from the public that there were more
ballots than voters. Our county showed that voter turnout was over 100%. He explained
that that was only because each page of the ballot counted as one vote.
The Supervisor of Elections concurred with Commissioner Mowery and stated that the
141% voter turnout number did cause confusion with many candidates and supporters.
Commissioner Johnson commented that in spite of what happened, those involved in
the process remained professional and he appreciated the Supervisor's leadership and
commended the Supervisor of Election's staff.
The Supervisor of Elections talked about the dedication of her staff even after the
election. She also thanked the Board and Board staff for their support and specifically
Commissioner Mowery and the Canvassing Board for the work that they did for the
citizens of this community.
Commissioner Dzadovsky addressed his concerns regarding the government as a whole
for slashing offices and staff and not being able to spend money on equipment and
capital projects. For example, there have been recent Culvert failures that should have
been replaced some time ago. He is surprised that we haven't had more equipment
failures. Technology has such a short shelf life and he commended the Supervisor of
Elections for the service she has provided while facing such challenges.
The Supervisor of Elections stated that she appreciates the Commissioner's comments
and agrees that they have so many needs and it's difficult with the available funds
shrinking.
Commissioner Hutchinson discussed looking at different unfunded state mandates and
working with the Supervisor of Elections to try to get the state to reimburse those
funds; if not this year, in the future. She also commented that if you look back at the
time between the 2010 election cycle and the 2012 election cycle, the Supervisor of
Election's budget was cut $317,000 which is a little less than what she is currently
requesting. She suggested that perhaps in the future, during those election cycles, they
may need to be more open in conversation and in those particular years. The Budgets
may need to be higher to for those possible overruns that we face today.
Commissioner Mowery stated that this is the lowest budget the Supervisor's had in
seven years. Assuming the election costs are the same for administering an election,
then midway through the cycle came the request to make it a two page ballot. The
postage went up from $.45-$.65, the number of sheets went up so she would have been
able to administer the lowest budget; however, because those other costs came along
she is adding costs back in. There were two items he discussed that he thought may
have been questionable. One of which being the voter registration systems, the
reporting software that, due to some concerns that happened in the primary, was an
additional cost. The Supervisor's staff and the vendor have been evaluating it because
they weren't happy with the results of the election night reporting software upgrade
that should've been provided. The second issue being the electronic voter ID system
and the decision to move forward with that. He also commented on the issue of the
legal fees. He stated that other constitutional officers have access to counsel or have in
house legal counsel available whereas the Supervisor of Elections and the Clerk of the
Court do not.
10
The Supervisor of Elections expressed her appreciation to the Board and stated she will
continue to work hard for the County to ensure that the voting process continues with
the high standards that we've had overthe years.
He stated that he understands that this has been a challenging time and he trusts that
as the Supervisor gets the final report and the matters worked out in Tallahassee with
the hearings that she will be successful as she continues to work through her own office
and staff. He commented that he is looking forward to the fact that she will have an
improved system and moving forward in a positive way to make our County stronger.
It was moved by Commissioner Johnson, seconded by Commissioner Lewis to approve
of Budget Amendment No. 13-001 increasing the Supervisor of Elections 2013 adopted
budget from $2,293,764 to 2,598,885 and; upon roll call, motion carried unanimously.
XI. ANNOUNCEMENTS

St. Lucie County has adopted ordinances establishing impact fees so as to assure that new
development bears a proportionate share of the cost of capital expenditures necessary to provide public
buildings, roads and parks in St. Lucie County. On September 6, 2005, the Board of County Commissioners
approved Ordinance No.05-030 which provided for an alternative method for collection of impact fees for
public buildings, roads and parks.
The alternative collection mechanism provided for the County to serve an Impact Fee Statement
notice upon the Fee Payer. If the impact fees were not paid and became delinquent, the County served a
Notice of Lien upon the Fee Payer and the Owner. The Notice of Lien advised that upon failure to pay the
impact fees, the County would record a Claim of Lien with the Clerk of the Circuit Court. Once recorded,
the Claim of Lien constituted a lien against the property.
On February 24, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners granted permission for the County
Attorney to file suit to foreclose said lien(s). The County Attorney's Office began the suit procedure by
sending letters, since March of 2009, to the property owners reminding them of their obligation to pay the
impact fees. As of this date, seven hundred ninety-six thousand, seven hundred four and 91/100
($796,704.91) has been collected by the County as a result of these efforts. In addition, fourteen property
owners paid the fees through Impact Fee Payment Agreements.
On September 20, 2011, St, Lucie County and Port St. Lucie entered into an interlocal Agreement
whereas the City has agreed to collect the applicable impact fees prior to issuing a building permit.
The following four parcels are a portion of those that were sent letters and have either not
responded or have indicated that they will not pay the Impact fees. They are:
Permit #0716879 - 1721 SW Starman Avenue, Port St. Lucie - a certified letter was sent to the
property owner on July 31, 2009 giving them 30 days to pay the lien. There was communication with the
owner's attorney in October 2009 who disputes the charges, A second certified letter was sent to the
property owner on May 4, 2010 giving them 30 days to pay the lien, but there has been no further
communication with the owner ortheir attorney. The property is currently occupied by the owner and the
taxes are paid.
Permit #0806812 - 1590 SW Mullinax Avenue, Port St. Lucie - a certified letter was sent to the
property owners on August 20, 2009 giving them 30 days to pay the lien. There has been no
communication from the owners and the lien remains unpaid. The property is currently occupied by the
owner and the taxes are paid.
Permit #0806432 - 386 SW Dalton Circle, Port St. Lucie - a certified letter was sent to the property
owners on August 20, 2009 giving them 30 days to pay the lien. The owner responded asking for an
adjustment to the impact fees. A letter was sent to the owner on September 25, 2009 stating the County
Administrator had agreed to waive the interest and fees on this lien if the Lien was paid in full or if the
owner entered into a payment plan agreement within 30 days. There was no response from the owner.
The property has since been sold. A certified letter was sent to the new property owner on December 18,
2012 giving them 30 days to pay the lien.
Permit #0715619 -672 SW McCoy Avenue, PortSt. Lucie- a certified letter was sent to the property
owners on July 31, 2009 giving them 30 days to pay the lien. On August 2, 2009, a letter was received from
the builder who disputes the charges. A letter was sent to the builder on August 26, 2009 advising that the
fees were due to St. Lucie County. On October 12, 2009, the builder called our offices and advised he
would be paying this lien the next day. The lien continues to be unpaid. The property is currently in
foreclosure.
RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION o
Staff recommends that the Board authorize the County Attorney's Office to file suit against owners
of the four (4) referenced parcels located in St. Lucie County for failure to pay impact fees.

THROUGH: Daniel S. McIntyre, County Attorney
FROM: Mark J. Godwin, Criminal Justice Coordinator
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Creation of new full time position (Lab Specialist) for the St. Lucie County Drug
Screening Lab.
ITEM NO. VI-B-3
Background:
The St. Lucie County Drug Screening Lab opened on July 1, 2008. The Lab has tested many clients
in the public and private sectors. In 2012, the lab conducted over 24,000 tests (see attached graph).
Furthermore, due to an increase in client usage, an immediate need for combining a vacant part time
position with another part time position would result in a new full time position.
If approved, the new full time lab specialist position will be funded from the SLC Lab's operating
budget.
Additionally, the funds to cover the Lab Specialist will be budgeted in the lab operating budget, and
will have no impact on the County budget.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the full time Lab Specialist position be approved.

FROM: Michael Brillhart, Business & Strategic Initiatives Manager
DATE: January 15, 2013 113
SUBJECT: Project SwimFly — Letter of Intent
ITEM NO. VI-1)
Background:
Project SwimFly has requested economic development incentives in consideration of its interest in locating an aviation
manufacturing facility, pilot training and mechanical diagnostics operation to St. Lucie County. Project SwimFly is an
existing aviation manufacturing company which is designated as an eligible industry on the County's Qualified Target
Industries (QTI) list. The company is currently in discussion with the Economic Development Council of St. Lucie
County, Inc. on the availability of economic development business incentives.
The intent of Project SwimFly is to hire 75 employees over a three year period at an average annual salary of $32,000
($15.38/hour). The company anticipates an investment of $1.7 million in land, building and equipment.
In consideration of the 75 employees to be hired and its $1.7 million capital investment, Project SwimFly is eligible for
an ad valorem tax exemption phased over six (6) years. Based upon the number of employees to be hired and the
average annual salary, the company is also eligible for a Job Growth Investment Grant in the amount of $146,250
payable over five (5) years ($29,250/year).
Staff is recommending that Project SwimFly receive an ad valorem tax exemption and a Job Growth Investment Grant
with the creation of 75 new jobs. The Job Growth Investment Grant payments will be absorbed into the current JGIG
funding account. This will not require an increase to the upcoming budget.
Recommendation
Board authorization to have the County Administrator send a Letter of Intent to offer Project SwimFly an Ad Valorem
Tax Exemption phased over six (6) years and a Job Growth Investment Grant (JGIG) in the amount of $146,250
phased over five (5) years ($29,250 per year).

Re: Letter of Intent — Project SwimFly
Dear Mr. Pelton:
St. Lucie County is pleased to present to Project SwimFly an estimated economic development
business incentives package to demonstrate the County's support for a favorable decision to locate a
new aviation manufacturing facility in St. Lucie County.
The incentives package is contingent upon Project SwimFly locating an aviation manufacturing facility
in St. Lucie County and employing 75 persons by the end of year three at a minimum average annual
wage of at least $32,000. The incentive package will include an ad valorem tax exemption and a Job
Growth Investment Grant (JGIG.
Ad Valorem Tax Exemption
It is our understanding that Project SwimFly intends to make a capital investment of $1.7 million for
land, building and equipment. The estimated ad valorem tax exemption calculated over a six -year
period on a declining basis is $57,104 based upon current tax millage rates. To be eligible for an ad
valorem tax exemption, an applicant must submit "Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax
Exemption Application" to St. Lucie County before March 15t and prior to the issuance of a "Certificate
of Occupancy'. The applicant's application is then submitted to the St. Lucie County Property
Appraiser for review and report. Approval of any request for tax exemption is subject to a public
hearing by the Board of County Commissioners.
Job Growth Investment Grant (JGIG)
In consideration of the hiring of 75 employees at an annual salary of $32,000 ($15.38/hour), St. Lucie
County is offering Project SwimFly a Job Growth Investment Grant (JGIG) incentive in the amount up
to $146,250 payable over 5-years ($29,250/year). Payment is contingent upon compliance with
minimum employee hiring and wage rate requirements.
St. Lucie County is very appreciative of Project SwimFly considering locating in St. Lucie County and
potentially creating 75 new jobs for our citizens. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial
relationship.

SUBJECT: Paradise Park Storm Water Improvements — Phase 3
ITEM NO. VI — E1
Backaround:
Paradise Park Subdivision consists of approximately 168 acres located on North 15th, 17th, 19th,
21st and 23rd Streets between two drainage canals: South Florida Water Management District
(SFWMD) Canal 25 and Ft. Pierce Farms Water Control District (FPFWCD) Canal 1. The
subdivision was developed in the 1960's before State water quality regulations were developed,
and has poor storm water conveyances and lack of storm water treatment. During rain events, the
storm water outfalls directly into the two canals, both of which discharge into the Indian River
Lagoon by means of Taylor Creek, approximately one -quarter mile away.
Project improvements include drainage swales along the subdivision streets for pretreatment and
conveyance to storm water detention and treatment facilities. Storm water runoff treatment facilities
include dry detention ponds and control structures for discharge of treated runoff to the C-25 and Ft.
Pierce Canals. The proposed storm water conveyances and treatment areas will dramatically
reduce outfall of fresh water and storm water pollutants from Paradise Park into the Indian River
Lagoon.
Phase 1 of this project was completed in May 2007. Phase 2 was completed in June 2010. Phase
3 is presently under construction with an estimated completion in March 2013. The grant allocation
of $1,000,000 has assisted with construction expenses associated with construction of the storm
water conveyance and treatment systems. St. Lucie County's cost share was $1,000,000 totaling
$2,000,000 toward the total project costs for Phase 3 of the Paradise Park retrofit.
Actual construction costs resulted in a reduction of $400,000 from the $1,000,000 grant allocation.
Unused grant funds must be returned to the St. Lucie River Issues Team (SLRIT) Board for
redistribution to other projects. The grant is setup to fund one specific project and the unused funds
cannot be spent on subsequent phases of the Paradise Park Subdivision. However, the funds have
been re -appropriated to the Heathcote Project in St. Lucie County through the SLRIT.
In addition, the original amended grant completion date is January 4, 2013. This modification will
extend the grant deadline to May 4, 2013 and allow the County to complete construction and
recover the remaining funds available from the granting agency.

FROM: Ron Roberts, Solid Waste Division Director
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: CDM work authorization No. 9 and CIP 13-036 for Recyclables Processing Facility
ITEM NO. E3
Background:
The Solid Waste Division constructed a construction and demolition debris (C&D) processing facility in
the summer of 2004. At that time the incoming daily C&D tonnage was approximately 250 tons per day.
The system was designed with growth in mind and was capable of processing up to 500 tons per day.
The C&D daily tonnage peaked at 1000 tons per day in 2005.
In 2011 the daily tonnage of C&D dropped to 50 tons per day. Realizing that we had a stranded asset,
staff began considering alternative uses for the equipment. It was determined that with a few
modifications the system could process recyclable materials.
In June 2012 the board approved a recyclables processing fee with an implementation date of August 1
2012. Since that date we have been processing recyclables and C&D debris on alternate days.
Since the implementation date of the recyclables program the tonnage of this material and C&D debris
have doubled. Staff has determined that these increases together with projected growth in both streams
warrant the consideration of the design and construction of a recyclables processing facility. This would
allow for the processing of both streams at the projected levels.
Previous Action: N/A
Recommendation:
Board approval of CDM Work Authorization No. 9 for professional engineering services to assist St.
Lucie County Solid Waste with the design, permitting, bidding and construction administration for the
proposed recyclables processing facilities for a total of $452,975, approve CIP13-036 and authorize the

WORK AUTHORIZATION NO.9
ST. LUCIE COUNTY BALING AND RECYCLING FACILITY
RECYCLABLES PROCESSING FACILITY
This Authorization, when executed, shall be incorporated in and become part of the Contract for
Consulting/Professional Services between St. Lucie County (SLC), and Camp Dresser & McKee Inc.
(CONSULTANT), dated February 9, 2010 hereafter referred to as the Contract.
SLC, the owner and operator of the SLC Baling and Recycling Facility, has requested that
CONSULTANT prepare this Scope of Services to provide professional engineering services for the
design, permitting, bidding, and construction administration for the proposed recyclables
processing facility. The recyclables processing facility will consist of feed conveyors, mechanical
and manual separation stations, and feeding area.
SLC currently owns and operates the C&D debris processing facility. SLC recently modified the
facility to process curbside recyclable wastestreams; however, future trends indicate that C&D
debris tonnages are recovering from the economic downturn and are increasing. SLC has
determined that construction of a separate recyclables processing facility would be advantageous
to sort, process, and market this wastestream.
CONSULTANT will undertake the recyclables processing facility design, permitting, bidding, and
construction services. Based on recent discussions with SLC staff, the requirements of the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), our familiarity with the SLC Baling and Recycling
Facility site, and our experience with similar projects the proposed Scope of Services includes the
following:
TASK 1.0 - SITE VISIT, DATA COLLECTION, SURVEY, AND GEOTECHNICAL EVALUATION
This task focuses on obtaining the necessary preliminary information to prepare detailed
engineering plans and construction specifications.
Subtask 1.1 Kick -Off Meeting
CONSULTANT will attend a project kick-off meeting with SLC to discuss the
proposed project so that SLC can further define their requirements. CONSULTANT
will visit the site and review pertinent features. CONSULTANT will collect and
review existing data available on unusual field conditions and available site surveys.
As part of this subtask, CONSULTANT will identify additional survey and
geotechnical data requirements. This evaluation will consider the required ingress
and egress of vehicles bringing in recyclables, worldng within the facility and
loading and storage requirements. Attention will also be given to the impact to
existing utilities, storm water features, etc.

Verada Ditch Improvements South of Calmoso Drive
VI-E4
The Verada Ditch is a County -owned drainage facility that lies largely within the city limits of Port St.
Lucie. It was constructed many decades ago by the General Development Corporation. The ditch
provides vital stormwater conveyance for many square miles of residential neighborhoods and the
associated roadways.
In 2008, Tropical Storm Fay severely impacted the Verada Ditch. Significant lengths of the
embankments were eroded and collapsed. Initial estimates of the cost to repair the canal slopes quickly
summed to the multi -million dollar level. These repairs were not anticipated in the Capital Improvement
Plan project list.
St. Lucie County was very fortunate to receive financial assistance from the National Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS). The NRCS provided slightly more than $4 million. The County provided
a 25% match that brought the project budget to about $5.4 million. The County was responsible for any
funding above the grant amount. The funds were provided with the stipulation that work must be
completed by July 18, 2009.
The work was divided into two similarly -sized projects. The southern portion was awarded to Ranger
Construction Industries in the amount of $3.03 million on March 24, 2009.
The project was completed on time and within the established budget. Upon completion, NCRS
reviewed the completed work and they too found it to be in conformance to the plans and specifications
and to have been completed within the allotted time frame. However, it has only recently been noted
that this project was not presented to the Board for acceptance. There are no issues associated with
our grant funds nor with contractor performance. While there are issues associated with the Verada
Ditch, these are not associated with the contractor. An agenda item to address the current issues will
be forthcoming in February. It is staffs request for the Board to accept the project at this time.

Ms. Hogans,
Regarding our conversation about the funds that St. Lucie County was credited back, please confirm that these funds
may be spent on an eligible activity (travel, training, supplies, etc...)
I spoke to the County's Management and Budget office. I will be going before the Board of County Commissioners on
1/15 for a budget resolution in the amount of $557.15 to roll this amount into the FY13 budget. This is the only way I will
be able to get these funds spent. As soon as the funding has been spent I will provide you documentation to back up the
purchase.
Thank you and I appreciate your guidance with this unusual situation.

County's insurance provider. In order for the County to process payment, a IRS Form W9 is needed from HUD.
Is this something you can provide to me?
Thank you.

Chapter 67-1998, Laws of Florida, Section 5 finds that all lots in recorded subdivisions in
St. Lucie County, outside of municipalities, will be kept free from debris or anyother matter which

property within the immediate area surrounding the same.
If the Board of County Commissioners finds it wise and expedient and serves a public health
or safety purpose for such propertyto be cleaned of weeds orothergrowth of materials, including,
boarding and securing all windows and doors, the Board of County Commissioners shall cause a
notice to be delivered requiring abatement of this nuisance. If the nuisance is not abated, the
Board may order those lots to be cleared of materials.
RECOMMENDATION/CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Board authorize a 30 day notice be sent to the property owners
ordering them to mow and maintain the entire property for excessive overgrowth of grass and
weeds or St. Lucie County will have it abated and place a lien on the Property.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Erosion District Board
THROUGH: James R. David, Mosquito Control & Coastal Management ,SS�ervices Director
FROM: Richard A. Bouchard, P.E., Senior Coastal Engineer
DATE: January 15, 2013
SUBJECT: Ft. Pierce Shore Protection Project
ITEM NO. II-B
Background:
Ft. Pierce Beach is a 1.3-mile federally authorized Shore Protection Project (SPP) immediately south of
Ft. Pierce Inlet. Capron Shoal, located approximately 4 miles southeast of Ft. Pierce Inlet, has served as
the offshore borrow area for this project since 1999. The shoal currently contains sufficient deposits of
beach compatible sand for future nourishment projects. However, the currently permitted portion of the
borrow area does not provide enough material for the next federal nourishment project expected to occur
in late 2013 or early 2014.
Work Authorization No. 13 (C8-12-632) with Taylor Engineering, Inc. ($181,970) includes the data
collection, engineering design and permitting services necessary to evaluate the remaining sediments
within Capron Shoal, permit a portion of the borrow site for the upcoming nourishment and develop a
borrow area conservation plan to meet the long-term needs of the Ft. Pierce SPP. This scope of work has
been transmitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) for review. Erosion District Reserves will be used to fund this effort with
cost sharing or project credit potentially available from these agencies in the future.
Recommendation:
Board approval of Work Authorization No. 13 with Taylor Engineering and authorization for the Chairman
to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

EXHIBIT A
Scope of Work
for
Capron Shoal Borrow Area Design and Permitting
Capron Shoal, located approximately 4 mi southeast of Ft. Pierce Inlet, has served as the borrow
area for the Ft. Pierce Shore Protection Project since 1999. The shoal currently contains sufficient
deposits of beach compatible sand for future nourishment projects; however, the currently permitted
borrow site, a subset of the shoal, does not provide enough material for the next nourishment project
expected to occur in late 2013 or early 2014. The following tasks include data collection, engineering
design, and permitting services to evaluate the remaining sediments within Capron Shoal, develop a long-
term borrow area conservation plan, and permit a borrow site for the upcoming nourishment project.
Task 1: Program Definition and Data Collection
We will review existing literature and data and coordinate with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) to identify the need
for and scope of additional geophysical, geotechnical, bathymetric, and cultural resource surveys. We will
develop a program to collect and analyze the data with the goal of identifying a borrow area for the
upcoming nourishment project and developing a long-term dredging plan for Capron Shoal. Figure
Ishows the proposed survey boundaries and core locations discussed below.
Based on previous discussion with the USAGE, we understand the previous cultural resource
investigation of Capron Shoal, conducted in 1995, no longer meets current standards and is insufficient
for current permitting requirements. As such, we will subcontract Sonographics, Inc. to conduct a cultural
resource investigation of Capron Shoal. This investigation will include sub -bottom seismic (CHIRP),
side -scan sonar, and magnetometer surveys, archival research, data review, report preparation, and
coordination with the Florida Division of Historical Resources. Sonographics will use Panamerican
Consultants, Inc. for archaeologist services and Morgan & Eklund, Inc, for field support services. To
minimize field time and costs, we will subcontract Morgan & Eklund, Inc. to conduct a bathymetric
survey of Capron Shoal concurrent with the cultural resource surveys. We assume the field work will
require 148 line -miles of surveying within the proposed boundary shown in Figure 1.
We will subcontract American Vibracore Services (AVS) to conduct the geotechnical drilling
program including collection of 18 vibracores (Figure 1), each 20 ft in length and spaced 1,000 It apart, to
provide specific information about the sediment grain size distribution, percent fines, carbonate content,
and color. These characteristics determine the sediment's compatibility with native beach sand and,
therefore, suitability for use in beach nourishment. Twelve of the vibracores will occur at the south end of
Capron Shoal, south of the previously dredged borrow areas, to supplement widely spaced vibracores
previously collected by the USACE in 2006 and by Coastal Technology Corporation in 1994 — 1995. The
other six vibracores will be collected along the crest of Capron Shoal north of the previously dredged
borrow areas. Although past geotechnical studies thoroughly investigated the northern area (i.e. with
1,000-ft vibracore spacing), the cores did not reach sufficient depths along the shoal's crest to identify the
maximum depth of beach compatible sand. The proposed cores will validate the previously collected
cores and will attempt to identify the extents of beach compatible sand for sand conservation and
management purposes. Following vibracore collection, AVS's USACE-certified lab will conduct the
following per current FDEP requirements:
1. Split all cores
2. Core logging by a Florida Registered Professional Geologist.
3. Photodocumentation of the core sections
4. Gradation analysis at strata changes (approx. 4 samples per core)
EXHIBIT A
5. Calcium carbonate content analysis (approx. 2 samples per core)
6. Post -carbonate content gradation analysis (approx. 1 sample per core)
7. Visual shell content (approx. 4 samples per core)
8. Mansell color designation (approx. 4 samples per core)
9. Lab reports submitted in gINT format.
10. Report submittal to include field logs, penetrometer reports, photographs, core logs,
gradation curves, etc. to current FDEP standards. All final deliverables including final
electronic logs and reports will be directed by a Florida Registered Professional
Geologist.
Task 2: Borrow Area Design
We will apply the results of Task 1 to determine the extents of beach compatible sand throughout
Capron Shoal. We will define the geometry (e.g. lateral boundaries and excavation depths) of feasible
borrow areas both north and south of the previously dredged borrow areas. Of note, a significant amount
of material remains within (i.e. mostly along the sides) the boundaries of the previous borrow areas; thus,
our analysis will examine all of Capron Shoal to identify the remaining sand that future dredging
operations may feasibly extract. We will conduct overfill analyses and examine sand content and color to
determine borrow material compatibility with the native beach sand. We will design a borrow area for the
upcoming nourishment project and developed a long-term dredging plan, or borrow area conservation
plan, for Capron Shoal. Given the limited sand resources offshore of St. Lucie County and the regional
need for beach compatible sand, the long-term plan is a critical tool for effectively managing the
remaining resources of Capron Shoal. We will prepare a borrow area design summary report and
drawings with plan and section views. Of note, we assume that previous borrow area impact analyses
conducted by the USACE remain valid, such that no additional analysis is required.
Task 3: Permit Modification
Use of the borrow area designed in Task 2 will require a modification to FDEP Permit Number
0269646-001-JC. We will prepare a permit modification request to include a letter of transmittal and the
borrow area design summary report, drawings, and conservation plan developed in Task 2. We will
submit the request to FDEP and remain available to respond to any FDEP review comments. We assume
FDEP will issue one Request for Additional Information (RAI) prior to issuing the permit modification.
We will coordinate with St. Lucie County, FDEP, and USACE representatives as necessary during this
study.
