Request

Henley stated he is not opposed to the 6-month extension, in view of the fact
the number of players and teams have been going down. He stated he spoke to staff relative to this

play their games.

by Commissioner Carey to approve Lease Agreement, as shown on page ________,
with Seminole Baseball, Inc. for the rights to facilities at Soldier’s
Districts
1, 2, 4 and 5 voted AYE.
Commissioner
Morris stated he has noticed that the
Robert
McMillan,
Commissioner
Morris stated attorneys are professional staff and he is wondering if they can
look at a two-year pay scale adjustment.
He stated he feels that there is a pay issue and it needs to be
reviewed. The Board may want to look at
some privatization in some areas.
Mr. McMillan stated the area that is least
cost effective to privatize is the eminent domain litigation area. A fixed salary is being paid for those
working in that area. He stated he is
looking at restructuring that area.
Chairman
Henley stated he feels it would be appropriate to schedule a work shop to see
what the setup presently is in the legal department in lieu of any changes that
they want to make from a standpoint of privatization.
Commissioner
Morris stated he feels this should be done sooner than later. He stated he feels Mr. McMillan is frustrated
in trying to recruit because of the incredible disparity of pay rates between
the public and private sector.
Mr.
McMillan stated he is still working on what he wants to do in that area.

David
Medley, Community Assistance Manager, addressed the Board to present request to
approve lease agreement to the Community Coordinated Care for Children (4C) to
operate a Head Start program at the Children’s Village property. He explained what the facility was used
for. He stated staff received a total of
five responses from the RFP. He said he
would like to bring to the Board’s attention that since the facility has been
sitting vacant for three years, the special exception that provides the
operation of the residential program from late 1980’s to 2002 has expired. Whatever agency is awarded the RFP, they
must reapply for a special exception.
Staff is recommending that the agency be allowed to go through a request
for a special exception to find out if and what kind of expenses are incurred
in bringing the facility up to code, with a site plan and business plan. Based upon their review, it would be
determined if they consider themselves able to provide the needed repairs
before a lease agreement is done with that agency. If they determine that they are unable to
meet the requirements, staff will bring it back to the Board for a second option
to award a lease.
Mr.
Medley informed Chairman Henley that the roof has been repaired. He stated he does not have a cost estimate on
the entire review for a traffic study, parking facilities, fire codes inside,
septic tanks and sewer system.
Commissioner
Morris stated there have been extensive discussions on the level of services
provided for pre-teens and teens.
Chairman
Henley stated the latest issue regarding the youngsters aging out of the foster
care program and many of them have no where to go. He stated national statistics indicate that
if they do not have anywhere to go, 60% of them end up in jail or are homeless
the rest of their lives.
Commissioner
Carey stated she served on the Mental Health Task Force and that was one of the
biggest discussions they had. She stated
she feels the Intervention Services would fill the gap for 15 to 21 year olds.
Mr.
Medley stated one of the issues that kept coming up was the level of services
to be provided for the number of young adults that would utilize that type of
service because they tend to not want to be in a structural environment. So there was some concern about being able to
house 24 young adults. Neither of the
programs that were ranked number two or three would provide facilities for that
kind of purpose. Intervention Services
would use one of them for transitional, the other would be used for younger
children, 13 to 18, in preparing them for transition.
Chairman
Henley stated the only drawback is this organization serves kids from other
counties. He stated he doesn’t have any
objections to that if it is meeting the needs of those kids that are not being met
somewhere else. If this repair became a
problem in being able to provide this service, he would not be opposed to help
bring that up since it is the County’s property. The State will pay for their tuition but it
will not pay for other costs, such as food, room and board.
Commissioner
Carey stated there are some kids who do not want structure, but there are some
that would like to stay. She stated she
agrees with the renovation issues.
Commissioner
Morris stated from an administrative side, the County needs to assist the
organization in doing the administrative rezoning and then go through a mock
DRC process to see if anything is needed for the building. He stated he doesn’t want to do an award if
the organization cannot afford to do this.
Commissioner
Carey stated the DRC isn’t going to address the condition of the building and
she would like the Building Department to go out to see what needs to be done
to the building.
Dan
Matthys, Planning & Development Director, addressed the Board to advise
staff will be happy to work with the organization.
Commissioner
Carey stated there are a lot of volunteers in the County that could volunteer to
work on the facility.
Mr.
Medley explained for Commissioner Dallari how the transitional programs work for
kids trying to get on their own.
Commissioner
Morris recommended continuing this item to allow staff time to work with
Intervention Services on the administrative issues.
Motion by Commissioner Morris, seconded
by Commissioner Carey to direct staff to work through the process with
Intervention Services, Inc. relative to associated costs for rezoning and
bringing the building up to standard for the services they provide and bring it
back to the Board for action on a potential lease.
Under
discussion and upon inquiry by Commissioner Dallari, Commissioner Morris
advised what they discussed relative to the transitional program funding will
be included in the motion.
Commissioner
Carey requested staff to look at a mentoring program as well.
Maryanne
Morse, Clerk of Circuit Court, entered the meeting at this time.
Districts
1, 2, 4 and 5 voted AYE.

Colleen
Rotella, Community Resources Manager, addressed the Board to present request to
approve Option Contract for acquisition of the Crockett property on the
Chairman
Henley stated he noticed an 8% annual withdrawal for the rest of their life and
whatever is left over will go as indicated but the cost was not administered to
this.
Ms.
Rotella advised those were not provided by the owner. Those details will be provided within the next
90 days.
Chairman
Henley stated this is the first time he has seen a proposal of this nature and
it sounds good.
Upon
inquiry by Commissioner Morris, Ms. Rotella advised staff fully intends to come
back to the Board.
Chairman
Henley stated part of the problem is they are trying to get something
accomplished before the end of the tax year.
Motion by Commissioner Morris, seconded
by Commissioner Dallari to approve Option Contract, as shown on page ________,
for acquisition of the Crockett property on the
Under
discussion, Chairman Henley stated he would like to know if all of the information
submitted is covered and what the impact will be upon the trust.
Ms.
Rotella stated staff will get that information.
Arnold
Schneider, Assistant County Attorney, addressed the Board to advise he feels
this contract is legally sound and it is very much in line with other
commercial types of real estate option contracts. If the County signs today, they are locked in
the option contract.
Districts
1, 2, 4 and 5 voted AYE.
CLERK’S
REPORT (Continued)
Maryanne
Morse, Clerk of Circuit Court, addressed the Board to present a check in the
amount of $2,720,135.02 for excess fees.
She stated she would like to stipulate that maybe the Board can use some
of this money to get her staff out of the annex and renovate the second of the
west side of the courthouse.
Tony
Walter, Planning Manager, addressed the Board to state Culver out of Home Media
entered into a 10-year transit shelter contract in March 2003. During the contract period, Culver must install
up to 60 transit shelters, 46 with advertising and 14 without advertising. Culver is required to pay the County the
greater of a monthly guarantee per advertising shelter of $25 or 10% of the
annual advertising revenue. To date,
Culver has installed 19 shelters and received $7,300 in revenue. Also,
Mr.
Rick Newcomer, Culver Out of Home Media, addressed the Board to display a
PowerPoint Presentation (received and filed) showing an overview of the Lynx
bus system. He displayed and reviewed
the RFP-Scope of Service and a Map (received and filed) showing stops in the
unincorporated and incorporated areas.
Mr.
Newcomer informed Chairman Henley how many stops in the unincorporated area have
shelters with advertising. He also
informed Chairman Henley that $7,300
was generated since the contract began.
Mr.
Newcomer discussed with Commissioner Morris the number of shelters that can be for
advertising. He stated they can work
with staff on the location where they would like the non-advertising shelters to
be built.
Mr.
Walter stated staff is working on the non-advertising shelters based on the
requests submitted by the public.
Commissioner
Morris stated the reason the Board asked for this briefing is they are getting
concerned that they were not effectuating shelter construction with Lynx and
Culver. This Board is not convinced that
they are doing what they should be doing with Lynx.
Commissioner
Carey stated part of the complaints was that all the shelters were being built
in
Mr.
Grace and Mr. McMillan left the meeting at this time.
Mr.
Newcomer stated there were several obstacles that held them up from building
the shelters.
Commissioner
Dallari stated he would like to know how they can move this along faster.
Mr.
Newcomer stated Culver does want to work with the County, but there are several
obstacles that have come up. He stated
one is insufficient right-of-way. He
displayed and reviewed the obstacles to shelter development. He stated one example, Stop 5897 on Alafaya Trail
in front of an apartment complex, is the line of sight-obstruct view from the driveway
and the slope behind the sidewalk.
Chairman
Henley stated he disagrees with the line of sight issue.
Commissioner
Morris stated he feels the Public Works Department could fill in the
slope. He stated if Culver is building
167 shelters in
Mr.
Newcomer stated he would love to build up and down SR 46 but since there is no curb
and gutter there has to be at least an 18 ft. setback and that puts you into
drainage ditches.
Mr.
Newcomer informed Commissioner Morris that there is a total of 18 stops that
are within the unincorporated area of 17-92 and seven of them have shelters on
them.
Commissioner
Carey stated the site and slope issues are minor and are part of the cost of
building shelters. She stated she can’t
imagine that everything in
Commissioner
Dallari stated he would like to ask staff to assist this company in expediting
this process so that these shelters can be up and running over the next six
months.
Commissioner
Carey stated she would like a list of where the shelters can be placed. She stated the CJC has a falling down bench
full of newspapers.
Mr.
Walter stated the City of
Chairman
Henley stated he would like staff to convey a complaint to the city relative to
the trash in that area.
Don
Fisher, Deputy County Manager, addressed the Board to state staff did an overall
master plan as to where the shelters should go.
He stated staff can resurrect it and get with Culver to come up with a
plan as to where these shelters should go.
There have been recent meetings with Lynx to discuss the citing of the
bus turnoffs and shelters.
Commissioner
Morris stated there should be a strategic plan of implementation of getting
Culver up to snuff on their contract and if they need assistance, the County
can do that.
Chairman
Henley stated Culver should identify those areas where they would like to put a
shelter, but have problems with the site.
Jerry
McCollum,
Chairman
Henley requested that Mr. McCollum meet with the appropriate parties to review
the process to cover all the areas that they expressed concerns about and get
back to the Board within a month.

great to have a super-stop, but there has to be some incentive and some benefit
to the developer to want to have that stop there. She stated she wants staff to think outside
the box when they are trying to encourage those people to put in these types of
facilities.

date certain and they did. When the rule
was distributed, everyone had a lot of heartburn over the rule so they have
gone back to revise the rule. She said
