To ensure the continued success of the programs, staff is recommending the reorganization of the programs. The proposed reorganization of the Pretrial and Drug Lab programs would be as follows Re-classify two (2) Senior Pretrial Officers positions into two (2) Pretrial Program Supervisors. This supervisory. team would assist the Program Manager with the day and night running of the program administration and operations, and would be responsible for the operation of the Pretrial Program in the absence of the Program Manager. Re-classify one (1) Pretrial Staff Assistant into a Pretrial Case Manager. This position would handle all aspects of case management, monitoring of defendant compliance with court ordered conditions of pretrial release, .intake and close-out of all case files, and providing weekly and annual report data for statutorily required reports. Work is performed under the direction of the Pretrial Program Supervisor, and reviewed through file reviews, database reviews, and statistical report reviews. Drug Lab Manager Position increase in salary request. The Drug Lab Manager Position was reclassified in title only last year and due to budget restrictions the salary was not increased. The responsibilities of managing the Lab have increased to be compatible with other manager positions within the Cdunty. The Lab Manager is still receiving the salary of a Pretrial Officer position. The Lab Manager currently supervises five (5) staff with two lab operations (Ft. Pierce & Okeechobee). The lab has increased in business and revenue with services being provided in a timely and efficient manner that reflects well on all agencies using the lab. The lab has established ahot-line for the agencies using the lab, along with providing for credit card usage during payment of services. The lab manager and staff work random weekend and holidays, which is one of the many services not provided before the lab was developed, TO: Board of County Commissioners T0: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST ITEM NO.

VI-F2 Background: During a routine inspection, two culverts under South Header Canal Road (south of Okeechobee Road) were identified as candidates for additional evaluation due to their corroded condition. These culverts allow North St. Lucie River Water Control District (NSLRWCD) Canal Nos. 76 and 77 to drain into Header Canal (No. 80). Subsequently, the County retained Underwater Engineering Services to complete an underwater video and pipe condition assessment of each of the culverts. The evaluation identified that the pipes are still structurally sound but that the ongoing corrosion has reduced the thickness of the walls of the pipes. While not an emergency at present, it is time to begin planning their rehabilitation. These pipes were not previously itlentified as deficient and are not included in the current Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project list. Attached is CIP Request #13-045 which will incorporate these canals into the current list (Attachment A). Recommendation: Board approval of modification of the Capital Improvement Program (Request #13-045) to include the culverts under South Header Canal Road at the connections of NSLRWCD Canal Nos. 76 and 77, respectively.

Bouchard, P.E., Sr. Coastal Engineer i DATE: March 19, 2013 SUBJECT: South County Beach & Dune Restoration Project ITEM NO. III-B2 Background: St. Lucie County has initiated anon-federal project to address the severely deteriorated conditions of the South County shoreline. A benefit-based funding plan was developed for this one-time local beach and dune project that includes three funding sources; State funding at 43%, Erosion District Zone E reserve funding at 23% and Special Assessment District (SAD) funding at 34%. After numerous meetings, workshops and public hearings the Board approved the assessment role and levied assessments against each parcel within the SAD on September 4, 2012. On October 2, 2012 the Board approved award of a construction contract to Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Company, LLC in the amount $6,857,100.00. The initial project design provided for placement of approximately 485,900 cubic yards of beach and dune fill to construct the entire permitted design template. Several storm events, including Hurricane Sandy, have since impacted this shoreline causing additional beach erosion, totaling 172,754 cubic yards. Therefore, in order to compensate for the additional loss and meet the required design template, a total of 658,654 cubic yards is now required to complete the project. In order to accomplish this additional work, a change order in the amount of $998,945, increasing the contract amount from $6,857,100 to $7,556,045, is recommended by staff. This increase includes a negotiated increased price of $0.70 per cubic yard for additional beach sand in excess of 115% of the original volume. This increase also includes $5,600 in additional dune plantings. A permit modification has been requested from the state and federal agencies fora 20-day time-extension (to May 20th from April 30th). The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has also requested a similar time extension for the Martin County project, which is being constructed concurrently. The table below depicts the additional funding sources required to fulfill the needs of the change order: Line Item State Erosion District Special District (SAD) Total 1 0 $291,751 $142,144 $433,895 2 0 $565,050* 0 $565,050 Total 3 0 $856,801 $142,144 $998,945 "State reimbursement of $250,000 is being sought
