COUNTY MANAGER’S CONSENT AGENDA

     Joe Forte, Acting County Manager, addressed the Board to advise that in Item #12, RFP-601008-10, State Legislative and Governmental Lobbying Services, Section 25(3) is to be stricken.  He added that in Item #31, Resolution to Amend Section 22.20, staff made a change for clarification of Board approval and that on page 22.20-6(e), Partnerships with Outside Agencies, (2)(a) should read:  Upon approval of the BCC, letters of support shall be executed by the County and provided to the requester for inclusion in the grant application. 

Mr. Forte requested Item 41, Approval for the Final Plat for Hanover Pointe Replat, be moved to the afternoon session following the Hanover Pointe Replat plat vacate Public Hearing due to the statutory requirements of Section 177.101 of the Florida Statues regarding the appropriate sequence of vacating prior to replatting. 

Mr. Forte advised that under the Regular Agenda, Item 55, Worker’s Comp/Property & Casualty Insurance, staff replaced the old 3-year cost history and distributed it to the BCC and the Clerk’s Office.  He added that Item 63, Silverleaf Park PUD Final Master Plan and Developer’s Commitment Agreement, was being moved to the morning session since it is a Regular Agenda item and will be heard after Item 56. 

Mr. Forte stated some contracts in the agenda that were started several months ago have Commissioner Dallari’s name for signature and those will be modified for signature once they are approved.  He advised that regarding the BAR’s, there were modifications that were clerical and did not change the intent of the budget amendment submitted in the originally published agenda package.   

     Commissioner Dallari stated he would like Item #38, Approve Resolution Implementing BAR 11-20, pulled for a separate discussion and vote. 

Motion by Commissioner Dallari, seconded by Commissioner Henley to authorize and approve the following, as amended:

COUNTY MANAGER’S BRIEFING

The Board noted the Informational Budget Amendment Status Report FY 2010/11 for the period ending October 31, 2010.

------

Andrew Neff, Environmental Services Director, addressed the Board to present a Myregion.org update.  Mr. Neff explained that provided in the agenda package is a Letter of Commitment expressing the Board’s potential level of endorsement for the Myregion White Paper (A Regional Strategy for Creating an Economically Sustainable Water Supply for Central Florida), the White Paper dated December 10 and his comments regarding the White Paper.  He explained that the White Paper has been a work in progress between the Myregion group and the Urban Land Institute. 

Mr. Neff stated that the Congress of Regional Leaders received the White Paper last Friday and are currently reviewing it and seeking comments from elected officials (by January 31, 2011) to help determine which recommendations should be implemented.  Mr. Neff explained that the next step will then be creation of civic architecture to advance the recommendations.

Mr. Neff read the White Paper’s Problem Statement into the record and described the four different categories that the White Paper’s recommendations are grouped into as follows:  Conservation and Environment, Education and Outreach, Economics and Pricing, and Alternative Water Supply.

In reviewing his comments relating to the White Paper’s Background Category, Regulation of Water Use in Florida, Mr. Neff described one of his concerns as being the effect of inconsistent regulation.  He described the process of developing a plan to regulate the remaining ground water and how to seek alternative water supplies for the future in the region.  Mr. Neff stated that he does not believe the White Paper sufficiently addresses the impact of future financial sustainability for the long term. 

     Regarding the Conservation and Environment Category recommendation of requiring the water management districts to adopt policies for consumptive use and management of water, Mr. Neff pointed out that the recent passage of HB 1565 limits the ability of Water Management Districts to issue rules.  Mr. Neff stressed that utilities should be provided flexibility on how to meet goals, not a prescriptive solution and suggested a menu instead of a checklist.

     Regarding the Economics and Pricing recommendation to conduct a survey of utility rate structures, Mr. Neff stated he believes there needs to be a lot of emphasis on participation from the Water Management Districts in co-funding.  He added that he believes that Water Management Districts should not be involved in rate setting which is the purview of local government.

     Mr. Neff advised that the next step will be affirming the level of support for the White Paper including the recommendations that the Board thinks should be in or out along with their thoughts and comments.

     Chairman Carey stated that when she served on the Myregion Board and the water topic came up, she expressed the fact that Seminole County was much further ahead than most others in the region.  She expressed concerns about the White Paper and does not want to endorse it the way that it stands. 

Chairman Carey suggested that since Commissioner Henley serves on the Congress of Regional Leaders, he might have some insight.  She further suggested that Commissioner Henley and Mr. Neff craft something that states the Board's concerns that could be taken back to Myregion. 

Commissioner Henley directed the Board to pages 11 through 14 of the White Paper which contain the specific recommendations.  Commissioner Henley advised that when the Congress of Regional Leaders met last Friday and brought forward the recommendations to be accepted, he asked for clarification as to whether they were receiving it or accepting it.  Commissioner Henley stated that right now the committee is trying to come to a conclusion as to what the group as a whole agrees upon.  He compared Seminole County’s participation to the other partners’ participation. 

Commissioner Henley stated he would be happy to work with Mr. Neff to forge a response.  He again asked the Board to look over the recommendations.  Chairman Carey suggested the Board can take formal action at either the first or second meeting in January. 

Commissioner Van Der Weide expressed concerns regarding Myregion.org and wondered what they were really doing relative to getting funds dedicated to them.  Chairman Carey reminded the Board that Seminole County has not funded Myregion for the last several years.

Commissioner Dallari stated that Seminole County has always been pro-regional regarding the regional water supply and has tried to get the various surrounding cities to come on board.  He stated his biggest concern is if the others do something that limits the County's bonding and financial capabilities.  He added if others want to talk regional, Seminole County has always been there and we will continue to be there but the others need to also be willing to come to table to actually act regional.

Commissioner Henley stated that he pointed out to the Congress of Regional Leaders that Seminole County has always been in the forefront and has been fighting the legal battles but no one has stepped forward to help while all have benefit from the victories. 

-------

     Mr. Forte advised the Board that an emergency ordinance (received and filed) was being distributed by Robert McMillan, County Attorney, regarding a moratorium on pill mills.  Mr. Forte explained that since several surrounding jurisdictions have placed moratoriums on pill mills or pain clinics over the last several weeks, he has a concern that these pill mills, with no other place to go, will come to Seminole County since it does not have a moratorium.  Mr. Forte advised that this emergency ordinance does have the Sheriff’s support. 

Mr. Forte described the restrictions contained in the ordinance and advised that the ordinance would expire on January 31, 2011.  In addition to the authorization of the emergency ordinance, Mr. Forte requested the Board’s authorization to advertise for the issuance of a regular ordinance to be heard on January 11. 

Mr. McMillan discussed the length of time the ordinance would be in effect and advised that this ordinance mirrors the ordinance adopted in Orange County.

Donna Wysong, Assistant County Attorney, addressed the Board to describe the ways the moratorium would work.  She stated that the moratorium would deal with pain management clinics that dispense pills on premises.  She explained the ordinance exempts legitimate doctors who specifically treat cancer patients and any sort of clinic that is affiliated with a medical school.  Ms. Wysong directed the Board to page 4 of the ordinance for a complete list of exemptions.

Upon inquiry by Chairman Carey, Mr. McMillan explained that this ordinance will affect existing operations in that they cannot be operating on a cash only basis and limits the hours of operation from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Upon inquiry by Commissioner Henley, Mr. McMillan advised that the ordinance prohibits any new clinics from opening up between now and January.  He further stated that if an existing clinic is taking cash only or operating 24 hours a day, that will need to stop.

Upon inquiry by Commissioner Horan concerning any bills that have been filed regarding this matter, Mr. McMillan explained that the State has already passed legislation and rules have been adopted by the agencies implementing the legislation but they cannot go into effect until they go back to the legislature.

Melissa Souto, Assistant General Counsel for the Sheriff’s Office, addressed the Board to advise that the Sheriff’s Office is working on some proposals asking for changes in the State Statute.

Chairman Carey clarified that if this matter has not been approved by the Legislature by January 30, staff is asking for permission to advertise to do a regular ordinance.  Mr. McMillan explained that normally when emergency ordinances are done, the scheduling of a regular ordinance is done to avoid challenges to the nature of the emergency.

Chairman Carey suggested that adopting an ordinance for six months would give the Legislature time to take the matter up.

Upon inquiry by Commissioner Van Der Weide, Ms. Souto stated that the Sheriff’s Association has someone to sponsor the legislation that the Sheriff wants to put in place.

Commissioner Horan stated that statistics show that as many as nine people a day in the state of Florida die due to a prescription drug overdose.  Commissioner Horan advised that he is in favor of this ordinance.

Motion by Commissioner Dallari, seconded by Commissioner Henley, to adopt Emergency Ordinance 2010-30, as shown on page _______, relating to a Moratorium on Pain Management Clinics; and to authorize the advertisement of a regular ordinance relating to a Moratorium on Pain Management Clinics.

Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

     Chairman Carey stated the law firm of Shutts & Bowen is requesting that this item be continued.

     Robert McMillan, County Attorney, stated the Board has a policy that all requests to continue should be submitted by noon the day before the Board hearing.  That doesn’t prevent the Board from continuing the hearing on its own motion based on cause shown by anybody at the hearing.

     District Commissioner Van Der Weide stated he is getting so much input from The Springs, both con and pro, and he feels the best thing to do is to continue this to the second meeting in January.  He said he feels he will need to meet with The Springs residents because he is getting different opinions from the community on this issue. 

     Motion by Commissioner Van Der Weide, seconded by Commissioner Dallari to continue to January 25, 2011 at 1:30 p.m., or as thereafter as possible, request to approve a Major Amendment to The Springs PUD (Planned Unit Development) and Addendum #9 to the Developer’s Commitment Agreement, for a portion of Tract 19 consisting of approximately 1.19 acres, located on the north side of West SR 434, approximately ¼ mile west of Markham Woods Road, as described in the proof of publication, Saxon and Clark.

     Kurt Bauerle, representing Saxon and Clark, addressed the Board to state he is opposed to the continuance.  He stated this item has been pending and they have been through the staff review as well as the P&Z process.  A small number of residents from The Springs are in opposition to the request.  He has had a few meetings within the community and the meetings have been lightly attended.  He asked the Board to reconsider the motion and take up the matter today.

     Ken Wright, Shutts & Bowen, addressed the Board to state he was just approached and retained by Bob Shakar and a group of residents within The Springs on this matter.  He stated he concurs with Commissioner Van Der Weide that something may be gained from some discourse in the next 30 days.  He said he can assure the Board that this request has been made in good faith. 

     Donald Saxon, 89 Wistera Dr., addressed the Board to voice his opinion against the continuance as a lot of people have taken time off from work to be here.  He stated he brought this issue before The Springs’ residents last year and he is against them asking for a continuance at the last minute.  He said he feels that the people in favor of this project should be heard today.

     Ron Kenney, 113 Wild Holly Lane, addressed the Board to state he is in favor of the continuance.

     Attorney Vickie Levieskes, 100 Woodmill Road, addressed the Board to state there are many attorneys as well as business owners that live in The Springs who may have an interest in this, and she would like to speak in support of the continuance.

     Scott Major, 300 Wild Olive Lane, addressed the Board to voice his objections to the continuance.  He stated business owners put a lot on the line everyday and there has to be an end to where a decision has to be made.

     No one else spoke in support or in opposition of the continuance.

     Speaker Request Forms were received and filed.

     Commissioner Henley stated apparently there has been some miscommunication on this issue, and the District Commissioner would like to meet with both parties to come up with something that everybody can live with.  He thinks the right thing to do is give Commissioner Van Der Weide that opportunity.

     Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

     Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT APPEAL/Jennie Loudermilk

     Proof of publication, as shown on page ________, calling for a public hearing to consider request to Appeal the Board Adjustment’s (BOA) decision to approve a variance at 1426 Hyde Park Drive for a side yard (south) setback variance from 10 ft. to 5 ft. for a proposed dock with boathouse in the PUD (Planned Unit Development) district; located on the west side of Hyde Park Drive, approximately 1,000 ft. north of Howell Branch Road, Jennie L. Loudermilk, appellant, received and filed.

     Denny Gibbs, Planning & Development, addressed the Board to state Ms. Loudermilk appealed the BOA’s decision in granting Russell Reinhard’s (applicant) a variance.  Staff recommends that the Board overturn the Board of Adjustment’s (BOA) decision. 

     Ms. Gibbs informed Commissioner Henley that there is an existing deck of 340 sq. ft. and the applicant is adding an additional deck extension plus a boathouse. 

     Commissioner Dallari stated the variance is needed because the applicant is trying to keep the footage of the existing dock.  Once it is expanded it will encroach into the setback that is below the water level.

     Ms. Gibbs displayed and reviewed a drawing showing the existing boat ramp and property line.

     Jennie Loudermilk, appellant, addressed the Board to state she has listed her concerns in her appeal letter.  She displayed photos (not received and filed) showing a view of Lake Florence and the existing boathouse from her patio.  She added Lake Florence is not a large lake and there are no other large structures on the lake at all.  An additional 24 ft. into the lake is really going to stand out with other structures in the neighborhood, which are primarily homes.  The new square footage created by that extension is about half the size of most of the homes.  She said she doesn’t believe that changing the structure to the north side of the boat ramp where there is 35 ft. of shoreline or continuing to utilize the existing boat dock are impossible to do.  She said she does not believe that a hardship is created by not granting the extension into the lake.  There are a lot of people involved in the enjoyment and use of this lake and the lake is a great asset.  She hopes that everyone can work together to preserve it.

     Commissioner Carey said the Homeowner’s Association (HOA) bylaws indicate that individual lot owners may build a boat dock if all necessary governmental permits are obtained; however, no such dock shall extend more than 20 ft. into the lake nor be wider than 7 ft.  Ms. Loudermilk informed Commissioner Carey that to her knowledge there are no other docks that extend into the lake more than 20 ft.

     Upon inquiry by Commissioner Henley, Ms. Loudermilk advised she believes the existing structure extends 20 ft. into the lake and it will be an additional 24 ft. and the width will change from 17 ft. to 21 ft.

     Russell Reinhard, 1426 Hyde Park Dr., addressed the Board to inform Commissioners Carey and Horan that he has currently a concrete boat ramp to the north that is in such an angle that if the new addition to the boat house is put in, it will prohibit the use of the boat ramp. 

     Sheila Cichra, 13936 Marine Dr., addressed the Board to state she is the contractor of the boat dock and what they are asking for does not represent any negative impact on Ms. Loudermilk’s property.  She displayed photos (not received and filed) of the existing boathouse with solid walls.  She stated they are proposing to take the walls out and build just a straight boathouse.  The existing structure is 8 ft. off the property line, and adding a boathouse right at the end of it would make the total structure 44 ft. long.  She said this is not an abnormal length. 

    Upon inquiry by Commissioner Carey with regard to whether a variance has been granted for the initial dock, Ms. Gibbs advised staff found that a dredge and fill permit was done a long time ago.  Discussion ensued relating to making the boat slip narrower, taking 5 ft. off the deck, the bylaws of the homeowners’ association, and the hardship of this parcel created by the landowner. 

     No one else spoke in support or in opposition.

     Speaker Request Forms were received and filed.

     District Commissioner Dallari stated when the Board looks at variances, they look at the abnormality of the lot that hinders the applicant from building on it, or if there are issues that cannot be overcome within a reasonable financial aspect of it.  He stated he feels this dock can be built within the existing Land Development Code, and the hardship was brought on by the property owner and not by the nature of the property itself.  He said he would like to see what the HOA would like to do.

     Motion by Commissioner Dallari, seconded by Commissioner Van Der Weide to overturn the Board of Adjustment’s decision to approve a variance at 1426 Hyde Park Drive for a side yard (south) setback variance from 10 ft. to 5 ft. for a proposed dock with boathouse in the PUD (Planned Unit Development) district; approve Decision on Appeal, as shown on page ________, located on the west side of Hyde Park Drive, approximately 1,000 ft. north of Howell Branch Road, as described in the proof of publication, Jennie L. Loudermilk.

     Under discussion, Mr. McMillan explained for Commissioner Horan what the legal standards are for an appeal.  He pointed out that the Board does not enforce deed restrictions.

     Ms. Gibbs stated the applicant is asking if the Board can allow the variance for 8 ft. of the existing dock.

     Chairman Carey stated the motion is to overturn the Board of Adjustment’s decision to grant the variance.

     Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

BROOKS LANDING PUD MAJOR AMENDMENT/MI Homes

     Proof of publication, as shown on page ________, calling for a public hearing to consider request to approve the Brooks Landing PUD (Planned Unit Development) Major Amendment, Amended and Restated Development Order, Rezone from PUD to PUD, and Second Amended and Restated Final Master Plan Developer’s Commitment Agreement, for 9.44 acres located on the south side of Red Bug Lake Road, at the corner of Red Bug Lake Road and Pine Bark Point, and east of Brooks Lane, MI Homes of Orlando, LLC, received and filed.

     Brian Walker, Growth Management, addressed the Board to state the applicant is requesting a Major Amendment to the Brooks Landing PUD to reduce the existing landscape buffer and utility easement adjacent to Red Bug Lake Road from 15 ft. to 5 ft., and to permit accessory structures within 5 ft. of the side and rear yard property line behind the main entrance.  The reduction will not affect the placement of the required masonry wall.  The existing PUD was adopted on August 22, 2006 and amended on April 6, 2010.  It consists of approximately 9.44 acres with a permitted use of single family residential.  The maximum density allowed is 6.42 units per net buildable acre.  The Planning & Zoning Commission (P&Z) recommended approval of the request.  Staff also recommends approval of the request.

     Upon inquiry by Commissioner Dallari, Mr. Walker advised the wall will be placed on the property line and the landscaping in front of it is not part of any easement.  There is landscaping on the north side of the wall and the applicant has agreed to take care of the trees.

     Joan Lucarelli (phonetic), Harling Locklin & Associates, addressed the Board to state she concurs with staff recommendations and she would appreciate the Board’s consideration on this item.

     No one spoke in support or in opposition.

     Motion by Commissioner Dallari, seconded by Commissioner Van Der Weide to approve the Brooks Landing PUD (Planned Unit Development) Major Amendment, Amended and Restated Development Order, as shown on page ________, Second Amended and Restated Final Master Plan Developer’s Commitment Agreement, as shown on page ________, and Ordinance #2010-31, as shown on page ________, approving rezone from PUD to PUD, for 9.44 acres located on the south side of Red Bug Lake Road, at the corner of Red Bug Lake Road and Pine Bark Point, and east of Brooks Lane, as described in the proof of publication, MI Homes of Orlando, LLC.

     Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

CR 427 MASTRAPA LAND USE

     Ms. Williams stated the applicant is proposing to develop two duplex structures on a single parcel, for a total of four dwelling units.  Each duplex would be single story and would not exceed 3,200 sq. ft. in total size.  She reviewed the land use and zoning classifications of the surrounding properties.  The P&Z Commission unanimously recommended approval of the request.  Staff also recommends approval of the request.

     Kenney Patterson, applicant, addressed the Board to state he approves staff recommendations.

     No one spoke in support or in opposition.

     District Commissioner Carey stated she received a letter (received and filed) in opposition from Bob and Danielle Pantazis.  She recommended approval of the request.

     Districts 2, 3, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

     Commissioner Dallari voted NAY.

LEGISLATIVE UPDATE

     Sabrina O’Bryan, Assistant County Manager, addressed the Board to state she has provided a rough draft of the legislative items for the Board to consider in preparation of the local Delegation meeting tomorrow (December 15, 2010) at 6:00 p.m.  She began by stating there have been no major changes to the SR 46 Regional Evacuation Route, the SR 429 Wekiva Parkway & SR 46 Bypass, and the Regional Alternative Water Supply Program/Yankee Lake Facility.  She stated Symatech is a new project for consideration and the Board previously passed a resolution supporting that item.  Seminole County has entered into a partnership with the city of Winter Springs supporting that project.  The County’s Federal Lobbyist has been working with the Congressional members and has secured letters of support for that project. 

     Chairman Carey stated the County is asking for funding for a couple of these projects and everything else the Board either supports or opposes.   

     Commissioner Dallari stated he would like the Federal and State lobbyists to help focus on the NEPA funds. 

     Commissioner Henley stated he wants to make it plain to the lobbyists that those items the Board is in agreement with on MetroPlan or Lynx, they should be prepared to support.

     Chairman Carey stated she received a call from Senator Haridopolos requesting that she work with him on unfunded mandates.  She stated to prepare the Delegation tomorrow night, she has asked Lisa Spriggs, Fiscal Services Director, to take a look at the funding of the courts and what the effect TABOR would have on that.  She said she is going to push what kind of negative impact those issues will have and how difficult it will make if they continue to push down things like TABOR, property tax reform and those type of things that really affect local government.  She added the pension reform came up during the Florida Association of Counties (FACo) conference regarding at what point do they grandfather the employees.  The other issue that came up was the septic tank issue.  A lot of FACo members believe that this issue is really a local issue and they are trying to get that repealed.  That issue has been postponed.  The last issue was Marion County opted out of the DJJ (Dept. of Juvenile Justice) issue and decided to pull out of the State system.  Seminole County has a real issue with the billing and the question is do they want to try to fix the billing issue or opt out and privatize the DJJ, or have the Sheriff take it over.  Marion County has partnered with a couple other counties and the cost is now being shared by 64 counties instead of 67.  The Board needs to address how they are going to handle the DJJ issue.

     Ms. O’Bryan referred to the numeric nutrient criteria (FACo is supporting), water quality, the stormwater management and TMDL’s and advised staff will be looking at those.  She stated from the general Growth Management standpoint staff’s recommendation is to monitor the role of the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) and allow for more local control over the direction of development within Seminole County and perhaps less of State oversight.  Staff also feels that the Regional Delegation be monitored closely as that would authorize additional authority toward the Regional Planning Councils.  Staff feels that the development of mobility fees should be monitored as well.  All of those issues will be added to the list.

     Chairman Carey stated the Board would not support the mobility fees on a statewide basis and she is in favor of trying to restrict what happens at the Regional Planning Council level.  She stated she feels the Board would like to do what they can to get the Home Rule back as it has had a negative impact on local communities.

     Motion by Commissioner Henley, seconded by Commissioner Horan to approve the corrected BAR’s #11-08 in the amount of $10,445, #11-16 in the amount of $4,400,000 and #11-19 in the amount of $100,593,650, as presented by the County Manager.

     Districts 1, 2, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

COUNTY ATTORNEY’S REPORT

Mr. McMillan requested clarification to the Board regarding the administrative proceeding related to the Integra/Lake Forrest PUD Amendment and Rezone.  They are entering mediation this week and a special magistrate hearing will be held in January, 2011 if necessary.  There is a debate as to whether or not they should bring this issue back to the Board as a public hearing.  He stated he assumes that if or when this comes back to the Board, they will give the public an opportunity to comment on it.  He said he would like some direction from the Board so he can inform at mediation of their intention. 

     Upon inquiry by Commissioner Carey, Mr. McMillan advised the Board made a decision to close the public hearing during the last meeting.  It will come back as a revised plan.  He stated the Statute isn’t clear as to what the process is when it comes back to the Board.  He said he is asking the Board what process they want to take.

     Commissioner Horan explained how the alternative dispute resolution process provides for public bodies, developers and the public instead of going to court.  He stated he feels that the Board already had a public hearing and when a resolution or recommendation comes back, they are not required to have a public hearing on that.  They can treat it as a settlement that would require a shade session.  Discussion ensued.

     Mr. McMillan agreed with Commissioner Horan that if the Board makes a decision to allow a public hearing, they will take away particular grounds for appeal.  He stated if there is an appeal by whoever loses at that hearing, theoretically, if the property owner is denied again, the entire 70.51 proceeding becomes irrelevant.  If the people who prevailed in September lose at the second hearing, they cannot appeal on the prior Record that they won and there wasn’t a public hearing to overturn it.  Mr. McMillan feels that the Board is safer to open that up for public comment and either approve or deny it.  Further discussion ensued.

     Upon inquiry by Chairman Carey, Mr. McMillan advised if the applicant is willing to drop the rest of the process and have the Board vote on it, then staff is willing to bring the final proposal before the Board at the second hearing then it is over.

Motion by Commissioner Dallari, seconded by Commissioner Horan to authorize the County Attorney to advertise a public hearing in January for the Integra/Lake Forrest PUD Amendment and Rezone, contingent upon the County Attorney reaching an agreement by this week.

     Districts 1, 2, and 5 voted AYE.

     Commissioner Henley voted NAY.

-------

     There being no further business to come before the Board, the Chairman declared the meeting adjourned at 3:30 p.m., this same date.
