Okaloosa County Board of Commissioners Page 5 Printed 10/31/2014 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Mark E. Davis: SUBJECT: Visitor - World Diabetes Day lapel pin Presentation Documents are attached related to Mark E. Davis to Present the Board a World Diabetes Day lapel pin. Packet Pg. 6 November is National Diabetes Month and November 14 is World Diabetes Day. To advocate for better diabetes awareness and education, the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) encourages those suffering with the disease to meet with community leaders and present them with a World Diabetes Day lapel pin. We would like to meet with the Board of Okaloosa County Commissioners, so that our daughter Abigail can present them with a World Diabetes Day lapel pin in hopes that they will wear it for the month of November to bring awareness to this important cause. The World Diabetes Day campaign is led by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and its member associations. It engages millions of people worldwide in diabetes advocacy and awareness. World Diabetes Day was created in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization in response to growing concerns about the escalating health threat that diabetes now poses. As of this year, over 382 million people are living with diabetes and more than 497,000 children under age 15 years has type 1 diabetes. Of the 382 million people living with diabetes, 29.1 million reside in the US. 8.1 million people have this disease and haven’t been diagnosed. Diabetes is the sixth leading cause of death in the US and has a direct and indirect cost of diabetes total $174 billion a year. The most common forms of diabetes are Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes accounts for about 5% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes. • Type 1 diabetes is usually first diagnosed in children and young adults, although it can occur at any time. To survive, people with type 1 diabetes use insulin from an injection or a pump. Risk factors for type 1 can be autoimmune, genetic or environmental. At this time, there are no known ways to prevent type 1 diabetes. • Type 2 diabetes accounts for about 95% of diagnosed diabetes in adults. Several studies have shown that healthy eating and regular physical activity, used with medication, can help control health complications from type 2 diabetes or can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes Abby was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when she was 18 months old. Now age 12, Abby has been an advocate for a cure from day one. She participated in her first Walk for a Cure 2 weeks after she was diagnosed and hasn’t missed a year since. She has actively engaged local, state, and national leaders to lobby for increased funding and awareness of the differences between type 1 and type 2 diabetes and the challenges associated with each. In 2011, she was one of two children selected to represent the State of Alabama at the biannual Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s (JDRF) Children’s Congress in Washington DC. She met with Congressman Roby and Bachus as well as Senators Shelby and Sessions. Because of her advocacy as well as many others passionate about finding a cure for diabetes, Congress renewed the $150 million dollar Special Diabetes Program, which will continue to fund promising research for a cure. We hope you will wear the pin proudly to support the diabetes community and our fight for a cure.

BACKGROUND: Gulf Power Corporation's Community Energy Saver program was established to: • Assist families living in income eligible neighborhoods by performing a free Energy Checkup and installing energy conservation measures at no cost to the customer. • Educate families on energy efficiency techniques and best practices. • Help save money by changing and controlling energy use behaviors. • Provide information on additional energy saving programs offered by Gulf Power Unlike many energy audit programs which typically focus on individual households and rely on the households to initiate the process, the Community Energy Saver program is intended to work at the community level with direct, proactive outreach by Gulf Power. For this effort, neighborhoods in the Fort Walton Beach, Niceville, and Crestview areas were identified using Census data. Due to Gulf Power's service area, neighborhoods in DeFuniak Springs were also included. Gulf Power also worked closely with the CDC which, as the County's SHIP Administrator and NSP contractor, provided an opportunity to cost-effectively reach concentrations of income qualified households. The update will include a Powerpoint presentation. No County funds were expended for this program. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the Board receive the presentation and ask questions as may seem appropriate to the Gulf Power and CDC representatives.

BACKGROUND: The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (GCERC) has asked for water quality and habitat restoration projects to be funded from Pot 2 of the RESTORE Act. Pot 2 funding is controlled by the Council. The GCERC has asked each of the 5 Gulf of Mexico coastal States to submit 5 project ideas to the Council for funding consideration. After consultation among the 8 "disproportionately affected counties" (Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton, Bay, Franklin, Gulf, and Wakulla Counties) staff suggests that a regional application would have the highest chance of success and the most positive environmental benefits for the region. Both the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and the Council itself have indicated a preference for these types of large area or regional projects. The following are the goals (taken from the application) of this approach: 1. Develop a watershed-based plan founded on a unified, holistic vision for a healthy watershed and that identifies the most pressing environmental issues affecting the watershed and solutions that address the issues, regardless of political jurisdiction and funding source. 2. Develop a list of projects in each watershed that specifically addresses solutions to the identified issues and the root causes of the issues. The project list can be used to pursue project funding for RESTORE Act and non-RESTORE Act related funding programs (e.g., grants and Public Private Partnerships) by clearly documenting the need for the projects in the context of how they will address solutions to the identified watershed issues. 3. Provide a screening tool for the communities, FDEP, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), National Fish and Wildlife Foundation’s Gulf Environmental Benefit Fund (NFWF GEBF) and the GCERC to use as they evaluate project priorities for potential funding. Packet Pg. 60 4. Focus stakeholder efforts in each of the watersheds and across the regions to increase long-term coordination and maximize effectiveness of funding and efforts. If the Northwest Florida Estuaries Restoration Program Proposal is approved by the State of Florida as one of the 5 allowed applications, it will be forwarded to the GCERC for consideration. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove letter of support. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends the Board approve the letter of support for the Northwest Florida Estuaries Restoration Program Proposal and authorize the Chairman to sign and transmit the letter to Governor Rick Scott. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: John Hofstad, Interim County Administrator Packet Pg. 61 November 4, 2014 The Honorable Rick Scott State of Florida, The Capitol 400 South Monroe Street Tallahassee, FL 32399-0001 Dear Governor Scott, Okaloosa County supports The Nature Conservancy’s grant application to the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council, for the Northwest Florida Estuaries Restoration Project. This project is the unique and perfect partnership of the Eight Disproportionately Affected Counties in Florida to restore the estuaries of the northern Florida gulf coast while still tailored to local impacts and priorities. This project includes restoration activities in the eight primary watersheds of northwest Florida: Perdido Bay, Pensacola Bay, Choctawhatchee Bay, St. Andrews Bay, St. Joseph Bay, Apalachicola Bay, Ocklockonee Bay, and St. Marks Bay. As a result of the watershed strategic planning sessions facilitated by the Nature Conservancy, Northwest Florida coastal communities have mobilized to identify the critical issues that must be addressed in their watersheds. The uniquely positive characteristic of this process and these projects is that jurisdictional boundaries are erased and the partnership focuses on the best interest of the entire watershed. These projects are tailored to each watershed with the purpose of identifying the root causes of degradation and how to most effectively address the problems. All eight counties and the northern gulf coast will benefit from application of these focused solutions. We thank you for your consideration of this application and look forward to working with the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council. Sincerely, Charles K. Windes, Jr. Chairman Packet Pg. 62 Northwest Florida Estuaries Restoration Program Proposal $160M Pot 2 Funding Opportuntity $17.6M Panhandle Estuary Program Proposal 8 estuaries DEP receives Funds and distributes using CBIR model (~ $2M per estuary) Priorities Identified via TNC watershed planning process $ Key Points of the Proposal: • Money distributed via a CBIR type process • Priority projects identified using a TNC facilitated science-based stakeholder decision process using the watershed groups currently in place. • State receives grant and funds TNC to continue watershed planning to develop a science-based projct prioritization prcoess. • Projects identified in each estuary (approx. $2M per estuary). Goal 1: DEP recommends and the Governor submits the TNC propsal to the Gulf Coast Restoration Council for funding from the budget 2 RESTORE Act funds. Success strategy: • Letter of support to the Governor from each of the eight counties for the TNC to develop and submit the Proposal to DEP and for the Governor to include as one of FL’s five proposals to the Gulf Coast Restoration Council. • Educate and inform state and local officials and organizations of the proposal’s importance to improving the economic and environmental quality of Panhandle ecosystems. Goal 2: Gulf Coast Restoration Council selects TNC proposal for funding. Success strategy: • Educate and inform all members of the Council, key Senators and Representatives and other interested parties about the importance of funding this program proposal in Florida. • Eight County Resolution supporting the proposal Key Messages: • Panhandle counties have organized around five watersheds to identify priority issues, root causes and major actions to improve the economic and enivronmental health of their communities. • Watershed groups include representatives from Federal, State and local agencies (including AL representatives), NGOs, universities, business groups, and local stakeholders • This proposal continues that work by funding the science-based prioritization of projects and providing ~ $2M for each estuary to begin project implementation Packet Pg. 63 • Ultimate goal is to identify the an initial suite of projects necessary to help improve the environmental and economic health of each watershed, regardless of funding source, then pursue funding including RESTORE, Grants, Public Private Partnerships and any other available relevant funding opportunty. Key Targets to Brief: County Commissioners, State and Federal Legislators and staff, DEP, NWFWMD, EPA, ACOE, USDA, USFWS Process Overview: DEP reviews and makes TNC Makes Application to recommendations to DEP on Behalf of 8 Govenor for Florida's 5 Counties for Block Grant Projects Federal Council Reviews all Projects submitted DEP Submits Florida's 5 from all Council Project to Federal Council Members and Selects Projects for Funding Federal Council Reviews all Projects submitted IF TNC Proposal is Selcted from all Council for Funding Members and Selects Projects for Funding 1. Funds would flow to DEP via grant 2. TNC would select project based on terms of Agreement. 3. Funds would then be allocated to Counties for projects.

During the RFP process the owner supplied information that led the bidders to believe that the current system operated off of two IC controller and all field devices were daisy chained to these ICs, after the post-bid inspection we have found that the current system consists of four total IC controllers that are in a network configuration. In order to provide a successful conversion to Genetec hardware and labor to install must be added, totaling $6,517.98. Also omitted from the RFP was a recent system change that added "ACU 9" with six readers attached. Hardware, software and labor to incorporate this recent addition into the conversion will increase the project by $6,323.70. We understand that in order to expedite this process the owner wishes to provide POs in lieu of a formal contract. Security101 will accept the base bid amount in the form of a PO to start work, however, the County will need to supply separate POs to incorporate the changes shown above.

Public Works is prepared to administer the construction and inspections phase of the project. Therefore, approval from the Board of County Commissioners is being requested to begin the advertisement process. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: In April 2014, a major overnight storm event caused significant damage to much of Okaloosa County’s roadway and drainage infrastructure. One of the sites most heavily damaged was the parking area of the Okaloosa County Department of Corrections Facility. The County tasked Avcon, Inc. to perform the survey and design documents needed for repairs for this site. Construction plans have been completed and the bid documents and specifications are currently being reviewed. The cost of these repairs will be 75% funded by direct reimbursement through FEMA’s declared “State of Emergency” for this storm event. Other funding will include a 12.5% direct reimbursement from the State of Florida leaving the County responsible for the remaining 12.5% of the total construction cost. The construction estimate for this project submitted by Avcon, Inc. is stated as $148,518.00. The 12.5% County portion of the total project cost is approximately $18,565.00. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove authorization to advertise the RFB for the Department of Corrections Parking Lot Repair. RECOMMENDATION: Approve authorization to advertise the RFB for the Department of Corrections Parking Lot Repair. RECOMMENDED BY: Packet Pg. 291 APPROVED BY: John Hofstad, Interim County Administrator Packet Pg. 292 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Ed Schroeder SUBJECT: Destin Seafood Festival, 2013 Event Funding DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department BCC DISTRICT: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Destin Seafood Festival was approved for various marketing activities outside the local area under the TDD’s special events and sponsorships funding program for the October 2013 event. Reimbursement was requested in September 2014, but could not be processed for two reasons. BACKGROUND: First, according to Section F.300 (4) of the TDD Manual, “The Okaloosa County tourist development logo and appropriate web links must appear prominently in Event marketing materials (written and/or electronic) supported by the Special Event and Sponsorship funding”. The radio ads mention “Emerald Coast Visitors Center” and the Emerald Coast logo is displayed commensurate with the event’s other supporters in print and online. The Finance office has denied payment in the amount of $9,285.50 for the Seafood Festival’s radio, television, and print inserts and related design work and website updates on the basis that the Emerald Coast logo is not prominently displayed. Logo prominence has not been previously questioned for any special event. Second, pursuant to Section F.300 (6) of the TDD Manual, special event and sponsorship funding is awarded on a value-based or results-based approach: “up to $10 per historically documented or anticipated room night.” However, Section F.400 (4) of the TDD Manual notes reimbursement is on a cost-based or efforts-based approach: “Invoices for pre-event marketing/attendance stimulation initiatives.” There is definitive marketing value in website exposure and the County has historically paid third-party vendors on a per-impression basis as part of the strategic marketing plan. A rate of $0.20 per impression has been consistently used to compensate special events for promoting the Emerald Coast in their online marketing (e.g. Emerald Coast Golf Tour, Emerald Coast Sports Camps, Emerald Coast Volleyball). Although the County has historically reimbursed special events for website impressions, the Finance office has denied payment in the amount of $9,609.80 for the Seafood Festival’s website impressions. The Tourist Development Council reviewed this reimbursement request and voted to recommend approval at its October 23, 2014 meeting. OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove RECOMMENDATION: Approve payment in the amount of $18,895.30 for radio, television, and print advertisements and related design work and website updates, as well as website impressions, for the 2013 Destin Seafood Festival.

BACKGROUND: Section F.300 (8) of the TDD Manual states: “The Post-Event Report shall be submitted to the Tourist Development Department Director no later than thirty (30) days after the date of the Event(s). Failure to submit the Post-Event Report shall deem the funding recipient ineligible for future Special Event and Sponsorship funding.” The October 2013 HOG Rally took place October 21-26, 2013. The Post-Event Report was received on February 7, 2014, several months beyond the 30-day deadline. Pursuant to the TDD Manual, staff is unable to approve the October 2014 funding request since the Post-Event Report for the October 2013 event was not submitted within the requisite timeframe. The Tourist Development Council voted to recommend approval of reimbursement for the 2014 event at its October 23, 2014 meeting.

However, payment cannot be rendered because the purchase order was not certified. BACKGROUND: The event dates were October 1 - 5, therefore funded in the FY15 budget. Purchasing opened the system for FY15 purchase requisition entry on September 30, and staff entered a requisition at that time. Purchasing processed the requisition on October 1, and the purchase order was received by Finance on October 2. The Finance office denied certification of the purchase order on October 2 since the event start date was October 1. In accordance with the expenses approved on the application, payment in the amount of $3,622.30 is requested for printing and mailing of the registration letter and $7,597.60 is requested for website impressions. The Tourist Development Council reviewed this reimbursement request and voted to recommend approval at its October 23, 2014 meeting.

Failure to submit the Post-Event Report shall deem the funding recipient ineligible for future Special Event and Sponsorship funding.” Last year’s Fishing Rodeo took place October 1-31, 2013. Although room night information was provided after the event, the completed Post-Event Report was not received until October 28, 2014. Pursuant to the TDD Manual, staff is unable to approve the October 2014 funding request since the Post-Event Report for the October 2013 event was not submitted within the requisite timeframe.

BACKGROUND: Peter Mayer task order 144 authorizes a social media sweepstakes and is within the Purchasing Manager’s approval authority, but was presented to the Board on August 19 due to the use of promotional reserves funding. TDD staff inadvertently sent the task order to Peter Mayer on August 4 after Purchasing’s approval rather than waiting until after Board approval on August 19. Peter Mayer engaged the services of Woobox on August 6 after receiving the signed task order, but prior to Board approval on August 19.

BACKGROUND: The Board approved the Consolidated Strategic Marketing Plan on May 6, 2014, which included a category for Promotional Reserve in the amount of $150,061. Funding in the amount of $59,499 is available for appropriation. To the greatest extent possible, such opportunities will be presented to the TDC for recommendation to the BCC for approval in advance. Task Order 144 in the amount of $18,895 authorizes a social media sweepstakes, email opt-in button on the website in conjunction with visitors guide requests, and development of three pop- up banners for use at trade shows. Due to the timing of regular meetings, the TDC is unable to provide a recommendation to the Board. TDC will be apprised of this use of promotional reserves at its August 28 meeting. Although the task order language reflects BCC approval on August 5, the requisite approvals could not be obtained in time and the task order is being presented to BCC on August 19.

A monthly reconciliation of the use of promotional reserve funds will be provided to the TDC and BCC for informational purposes”. BACKGROUND: Promotional reserves in the amount of $100,000 were budgeted. No promotional reserves have been appropriated during the month of October. Two uses of FY15 reserves were authorized in the prior fiscal year by TDC on August 28 and BCC on September 16: A. $13,500 to fly aerial banners at Alabama and Auburn home football games and the NASCAR race at Talladega B. $3,500 for three pages of advertisement and editorial in Food & Travel Quarterly Magazine on sale Sep 30 - Dec 31 Promotional reserves in the amount of $83,000 remain available for appropriation.

BACKGROUND: Through the Florida Department of Transportation, Okaloosa County receives funds from Section 5311 of Title 49 of the US Code that are used to reimburse Okaloosa County Transit (OCT) for the purchase of paratransit trips and for the WAVE operation in northern areas of the County. The current 5311 grant, AQD91, had an expiration date of September 30, 2014. Under FDOT’s process, extensions are granted administratively with electronic amendment of the grant file with no hard copies of any documents being exchanged or provided. Therefore, prior to expiration, staff requested and received from the FDOT a 1-year extension of this grant, and funds have been expended accordingly. However, because the term of the original grant was approved by the Board of County Commissioners, it is necessary that the Board authorize the extension as well, and also must authorize the execution of the task order and task order approval needed to provide the services to be provided through the grant funding. The remainder of staff signatures on the attached task order approval form will be obtained upon Board approval of the extension. The extension does not alter any of the budget items within the grant. Transportation Disadvantaged Trip and Equipment Grant provides local match for paratransit trips; County provides match for the Crestview WAVE/Express as applicable. No additional local funds are needed for this extension. RECOMMENDATION: The Department of Growth Management requests that the Board authorize the extension of FY 14 5311 grant AQD91 until September 30, 2015, and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Task Order No. 44.2, Revised to be retroactive to October 1, 2014.

BACKGROUND: As provided in Chapter 341 of the Florida Statutes, Okaloosa County receives funds from the Florida Department of Transportation to provide public transit service along the US 98 corridor. The current contract through which these funds are provided expired on September 30, 2014. However, under FDOT’s process, extensions are granted administratively with electronic amendment of the grant file with no hard copies of any documents being exchanged or provided. Therefore, prior to expiration, staff requested and received from the FDOT an extension of this grant. However, because the term of the original grant was approved by the Board of County Commissioners, it is necessary that the Board authorize the extension as well, and also must authorize the execution of the revised task orders needed to provide the services to be provided through the grant funding. The remainder of staff signatures on the task order and task order approval form will be obtained upon Board approval of the extension. Except for the extension of the expiration date, the requested action does not otherwise alter the grant. RECOMMENDATION: The Department of Growth Management requests that the Board of County Commissioners grant after-the-fact authorization for the extension of FY 14 Corridor Grant AQH66 (new expiration of 1/30/2015) and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Task Order No. 47.3,Revised to be retroactive to October 1, 2014.

BACKGROUND: During the 2015 budget cycle, the BCC approved $250,000 for Old Ebenezer Road overlay and $150,000 for the PJ Adams Emergency Overlay. Public Works would like to overlay only the Cold Mix section on Old Ebenezer Road for a cost of $100,000 and transfer the remaining amount, $150,000 to the PJ Adams Emergency Overlay project. The fiscal 2015 budget was approved by the BCC and allocated in account 3201-563243 @ $150,000 - PJ Adams Emergency Overlay & 3202-563149 @ $250,000 - Old Ebenezer Road overlay. Staff believes that by overlaying only the Cold Mix section on Old Ebenezer Road, we can defer approximately $150,000 to be used on the PJ Adams Emergency Overlay. This additional amount will allow us to go from the FDOT bridge approach (I-10) ROW to the new construction near Hwy 85. While staff acknowledges that the roadway widening is progressing (anticipated in the next 5 years), the conditions of the existing roadway are deteriorating to the extent that interim overlaying of the roadway is needed to keep the roadway functional in the meantime. The remaining portion of Old Ebenezer Road can be resurfaced in FY 16 as part of the CIP budget requests. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the Board approve the changes as recommended and allow transfer of $150,000 from the Old Ebenezer project account to PJ Adams Emergency Overlay account.

The attached scope and fee will provide for the full design of a four-lane roadway from SR 85 to the overpass at Interstate 10. BACKGROUND: By way of a Transportation Regional Incentive Program (TRIP) agreement between Okaloosa County and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), approximately $4,400,000 is available to complete the four-lane design of PJ Adams Parkway from SR 85 to the overpass at I-10 as well as procure right of way from SR 85 to Ashley Drive. Future funding agreements will continue the acquisition of right of way as well as fund segments for consruction. Included as part of this scope and fee is the full four-lane design from SR 85 to the overpass with I-10. Once the design is complete staff will coordinate with FDOT regarding the right of way acquisition aspect of the TRIP agreement. The RFQ previously advertised included the provision for right of way services, but at the suggestion of FDOT it has been determined that it would be most appropriate to separate the design and right of way services. The proposed scope and fee herein is separated into two components; Base Scope and Optional Services. The Base Scope includes the full topographical survey, geotechnical exploration, mapping, roadway design, construction cost estimating, PD&E re-evaluation and cultural resource assessment for a not to exceed fee of $1,508,839.86. Optional services (that may be required based on the outcome of the design) include wetland mitigation design and noise wall design; these are available for a not to exceed fee of $53,870.94. Optional services will require approval from staff if they are deemed necessary as part of the design effort, but prior to execution by the consultant. The total not to exceed fee is $1,562,710.80. On September 2, 2014 the Board of County Commissioners authorized staff to negotiate with HDR, Inc. to perform the necessary services. The proposed scope and fee is attached for consideration. Funding for this project is through a TRIP Agreement with FDOT for a total value of $4.4 million; this includes a 50% match by the County. The contract, scope and insurance requirements have all been reviewed and approved by the proper County departments.

Packet Pg. 603 Packet Pg. 604 Packet Pg. 605 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Jason Autrey SUBJECT: Payment for Waste Tire Removal DEPARTMENT: Public Works BCC DISTRICT: All STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Contract C05-1115-PW for waste tire removal expired on September 30, 2014. As a new contract has not been established to provide these services, Little Tire Hauling has continued to perform the necessary services in accordance with the prior contract. The request is being made to authorize payment to Little Tire Hauling for services rendered beyond the term of the contract. BACKGROUND: Okaloosa County has utilized the services of Little Tire Hauling for several years to manage the hauling and disposal of waste tires generated by residents, businesses, and Fleet Operations. A request for proposals to perform waste tire hauling services was advertised on-line prior to the expiration of the current contract and unfortunately there were no responses. Vendors were apparently unaware of the advertisement. In response, staff has re-advertised the request for quotes and specifically notified three vendors that provide this service in this region. This request for quotes is due October 31, 2014. In the meantime the County continues to have a need for waste tire disposal in order to remain compliant with Florida Department of Environmental Protection regulations. Little Tire Hauling has agreed to continue performing the services at the past contract rate, however authorization from the Board of County Commissioners is required since the original contract has lapsed. Staff is requesting authorization to pay any and all invoices provided by Little Tire Hauling subsequent to October 1, 2014 at the original contract rate ($110 per ton for hauling and disposal) until a new contract is prepared and authorized. On average the cost for this service is approximately $1,000 per month; it is anticipated that a new waste tire removal contract will be in place within three months. We are requesting authorization to pay any and all invoices provided by Little Tire Hauling subsequent to October 1, 2014 at the price of $110 per ton for hauling and disposal until a new contract, based on the quotes received on Oct 31, is prepared. The annual amount estimated for the cost of waste tire management is $12,000. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove authorization for payment of invoices from Little Tire Hauling for services performed subsequent to October 1, 2014 for waste tire hauling removal until such time that a new contract for the same services is approved by the Board of County Commissioners. RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve authorization for payment of invoices from Little Tire Hauling for services performed subsequent to October 1, 2014 for waste tire removal until such Packet Pg. 606 time that a new contract for the same services is approved by the Board of County Commissioners. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: John Hofstad, Interim County Administrator Packet Pg. 607 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Jeff Littrell SUBJECT: Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition - Purchase Approval DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer BCC DISTRICT: All STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Staff requests that the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approve the purchase of land for the Shoal River Buffer and authorize the Chairman to execute a Resolution, Purchase & Sale Agreement, Restrictive Use Easement, and Closing Documents. This land purchase is funded by the Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) program and Defense Infrastructure Grants (DIG). The Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition benefits both the Air Force (Duke Field flight path) and Okaloosa County (watershed protection for future water supply). BACKGROUND: See attached files: "OCWS Future Water Supply Update" - explains the need, background, and history. Note this is from the 12/3/2013 BCC presentation. "OCWS Future Water Supply Plan (Map)" - depicts the current plan/strategy, after years of planning. This map shows potential locations for the following infrastructure: surface water treatment plant, off-line reservoir, river intake structure, raw water pumping station, transmission lines, roads, and the Gulf Power transmission line relocation. "2010 Implementation Plan (Updated)" - the BCC approved this plan in February 2010. At the time, it was an unfunded road map. Since then, we have entered into as many partnerships as possible - Northwest Florida Water Management District, Eglin Air Force Base, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - to accomplish many items on this Implementation Plan. Items highlighted in green are completed, and items highlighted in yellow are underway. "REPI Map" - this is Exhibit B of the REPI Cooperative Agreement and functions as a map of potential land to be purchased for the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition. In addition to the above-mentioned background items, the following documents are attached for your consideration, with an explanation below: - County Contract Review Coordination Sheet for the Resolution and Restrictive Use Easement - Resolution - Restrictive Use Easement - County Contract Review Coordination Sheet for the Purchase & Sale Agreement - Purchase & Sale Agreement At the 12/3/2013 meeting, the BCC authorized staff to move forward with the Shoal River Buffer Packet Pg. 608 Land Acquisition with the grant funding that has been obtained. The BCC also authorized staff to negotiate with the property owner and bring back a contract for approval and execution. At the 4/15/2014 meeting, the BCC approved and executed the Cooperative Agreement with the Air Force, which consolidated REPI funding from previous years and committed the County to put land into a type of conservation easement formally known as a Restrictive Use Easement (RUE). The land in the RUE will come from both the proposed land purchase and the existing acreage along the Shoal River that the County purchased in 2007. Since the 4/15/2014 BCC meeting, two independent land appraisals have been completed per State Statutes & Air Force standards. The Seller has agreed to a purchase price equal to the average of the two appraisals. What staff is asking for your consideration and approval today is essentially the execution of the agreements and concepts that the Board approved at the 12/3/2013 and 4/15/2014 BCC meetings, related to the Air Force (mission protection and enhancement) and Okaloosa County (watershed protection). Therefore, for your consideration and approval today is a Resolution regarding the purchase of the property. With this Resolution, the BCC would be: 1) approving the attached Purchase & Sale Agreement and authorizing the Chairman or Vice-Chairman to execute, 2) approving the attached Restrictive Use Easement (RUE) and authorizing the Chairman or Vice-Chairman to execute, 3) authorizing the Chairman or Vice-Chairman, or their designee to execute and deliver any and all documentation related to the closing documents, and 4) authorizing the Chairman and County staff to perform the requirements of the Purchase & Sale Agreement, the Cooperative Agreement, the Defense Infrastructure Grant (DIG) Agreements, the RUE, and this Resolution. For example, should a time extension be necessary, the Chairman or Vice-Chairman, or their designee, is authorized to execute such an extension. Also included in the closing documents will be the RUE dedicated to the Air Force; thus, creating the buffer. The attached RUE has been negotiated with the Air Force and has been through County Contract Review. However, it still has to go through final Air Force review, which typically happens after the Purchase & Sale Agreement is signed. Please understand that the BCC approval of the RUE is subject to final revisions by the Air Force and County legal counsel. This document will be one of many executed on or around the date of closing. Through the REPI program, the Air Force is expected to wire the necessary money stipulated in the Cooperative Agreement. DIG monies will be fronted by OCWS' reserve and reimbursed by Enterprise Florida, Inc. (EFI) via the executed grant agreements. Both the REPI and DIG grants include both land acquisition costs and closing costs. The land purchase price and closing costs should be covered 100% by the above-mentioned grants; however, in the event that the closing costs push the total amount needed over the grant money available, a small amount of additional money (less than $50K) could be needed from OCWS’ budget, where money is available in 411- 4120-561300. County Contract Review has been completed and the Coordination Sheets are attached for your review. In addition, Nabors Giblin Nickerson is serving as the real estate attorney to manage the closing and ensure all local, state, and federal requirements are met. The attached Purchase & Packet Pg. 609 Sale agreement stipulates the closing by 12/31/2014, unless a delay is mutually agreeable to the parties. Staff is planning for a closing the 2nd or 3rd week in December, before the holidays. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommends BCC approval for the purchase of land to serve as the Shoal River Buffer and authorize the Chairman to execute a Resolution, Purchase & Sale Agreement, Restrictive Use Easement, and Closing Documents. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: John Hofstad, Interim County Administrator Packet Pg. 610 Okaloosa County Future Water Supply Planning Update Water The Need Background and History Next Steps Subtitle placed here November 2013 Packet Pg. 611 The Need  Water customers in Okaloosa County are served by OCWS and several other utilities  Drinking water supply relies on wells in the Floridan Aquifer  Water levels in the Floridan Aquifer have been declining since the 1950’s and further declines are not sustainable Packet Pg. 612 The Need  Okaloosa County will need additional water sources to: – Sustain County’s economic and population growth – Protect Floridan Aquifer and prevent saltwater intrusion – Provide for conjunctive use Packet Pg. 613 Planning Background and History  Early 1990’s – Northwest Florida Water Management District and OCWS began to foresee the need for future water supply planning  Mid 1990’s thru Mid 2000’s – Initial studies were performed by various groups (USACE and NWFWMD primarily) on potential sources throughout Okaloosa County.  1999 – Creation of the Regional Utility Authority (RUA) Packet Pg. 614 Planning Background and History  2004 – Construction of a 21-mile 30-inch pipeline with two 1-MG tanks thru Eglin AFB.  2006 – Northwest Florida Water Management District contracted with PBS&J to study potential water supply alternatives.  2006 – Purchased 353 acres along the Shoal River for future utilization.  2008 – OCWS formed a Future Water Supply Committee consisting of local concerned citizens. Packet Pg. 615 Planning Background and History  2008 – OCWS contracted CH2M HILL to assist OCWS and the Future Water Supply Committee with studying future water supply.  2009-10 - Two Riverbank Filtration Studies Performed to Evaluate Suitability of Shoal River.  2010 – In February, Okaloosa Board of County Commissioners Approved a 4-Year Implementation Plan.  2010-13 – In partnership with the USACE and OCWS, CH2M HILL has performed three tasks under the USACE’s Planning Assistance to States Program which provides for a 50/50 cost-share for work performed. In total, the partnership has performed almost $700,000 in studies with OCWS contribution $350,000. Packet Pg. 616 Planning Background and History  2013 – OCWS met with NWFWMD to discuss status of land acquisition. NWFWMD has not budgeted for land acquisition in their FY14 budget and has no firm timeline when or if land acquisition will be funded. NWFWMD preference is for OCWS to lead this effort. Packet Pg. 617 Planning Background and History  2013 - Shoal River Land Acquisition was submitted to the FDEP for consideration for Pot #2 of the RESTORE Act and NFWF funding. Packet Pg. 618 Next Steps  Safe Yield Analysis on Shoal River (aka Water Use Permit) - Perform preliminary analysis to determine the feasibility of withdrawing up to 10-million gallons per day from the Shoal River.  Utilize existing REPI and DIG Grants obtained in partnership with Eglin AFB to purchase land parcels north of Eglin AFB, south of I-10 and near the Shoal River for both source water protection, military buffer, and potential water treatment plant site. Packet Pg. 619 Next Steps  All three REPI Grants require a match – The match for REPI 1 is the OCWS’s existing 353 acres along the Shoal River. – The match for REPI 2 and 3 is the DIG Grant 2 and 3.  DIG 1 is also available and is intended to partner with NWFWMD to purchase the reservoir property.  Grant Utilization Plan – Utilize REPI 2 and 3 matched with DIG 2 and 3, respectively, to purchase land in the targeted area and place all land within a restrictive use easement with Eglin AFB. The land acquisition may also include additional phases of REPI & DIG. – Seek an extension for DIG 1 from current expiration date of 12/23/13 to allow for more time to coordinate with the NWFWMD and determine whether they are going to assist with the land acquisition. Land purchased with DIG 1 will not be required to be placed within a restrictive use easement, thus it has more flexibility. Packet Pg. 620 Next Steps Packet Pg. 621 Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition – Moving Forward with REPI & DIG - Retain real estate attorney to manage closing and ensure all local, state, and federal requirements are met. – Obtain asking price and questionnaire from property owner. – Conduct 2 land appraisals in conformance with State Statutes & Air Force standards. – Negotiate with property owner and sign contract (will bring back to BCC for approval and execution). Packet Pg. 622 (continued) – During contract period (6-12 months): • Survey • Environmental Baseline Survey • Title work & insurance • Restrictive Use Easement reviewed & signed by Air Force – Obtain money from Eglin AFB for the land purchase and allowable transaction costs. – Closing • Okaloosa County would now own the property • Restrictive Use Easement to the Air Force would be executed * Note: All land acquisition costs & closing costs are reimbursable through REPI & DIG grants.

BACKGROUND: This past February, Okaloosa County submitted three water & sewer projects via the County lobbyist (Cardenas Partners) for state appropriations. The requests were as follows: 1. Okaloosa Island/Wright Area Gravity Sewer Rehabilitation Project - $450,000 2. Okaloosa Island Water Supply Project - $600,000 3. Lake Pippin Area Sanitary Sewer Improvement Project - $2,000,000 This past June, staff received great news that all three requests had been funded, as listed above, for the state FY2014-2015 budget year. We also received notice that the state appropriations would be administered through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's (FDEP) grant program. Since June, OCWS staff has been working with FDEP staff to firm up Project Work Plans and resulting Grant Agreement on each project. OCWS staff has also been coordinating the grant agreements with other County staff, including the Clerk of the Court. As we are working with various FDEP personnel with variable timing, staff will be coming to you with three separate FDEP Grant Agreements, one for each of the above-mentioned projects. For these grant agreements, a match is not required, and eligible expenses can be retroactive back to 7/1/2014, provided that they meet the Scope of Work and satisfy other terms and conditions of the grant agreement. The first of these three FDEP Grant Agreements was approved by the BCC on October 7, 2014. The second, "Okaloosa Island Water Supply Project", is for your review and approval today. The agreement, titled "State Financial Assistance Agreement, Okaloosa County, DEP Agreement No. LP46042", is attached, along with the County Contract Review Coordination Sheet. As shown in Attachment A, the "Project Work Plan", the total project (also known as "Brooks Bridge Water Main Bore") is estimated at $1,200,000. This $600,000 grant is budgeted as follows: $100,000 for land/easement acquisition, $150,000 for engineering services, and $350,000 for construction services. Because this grant does not require a match, the first $350,000 expensed on the construction will be reimbursable from FDEP. Any additional money to complete the project above $350,000 will be local funding from OCWS' budget. The project generally consists of a replacement water main under Santa Rosa Sound via a directional bore and associated connections to the existing water system. The design work will be done by Packet Pg. 661 utilizing an existing Master Service Agreement with one of our consulting engineering firms. A task order would be brought to the BCC in the future for approval. Bid documents, plans, and specs would be produced to procure a contractor for this specialized work. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends BCC approval for the Chairman to execute the Grant Agreement with FDEP for $600,000 of state appropriations funding for the Okaloosa Island Water Supply Project. Staff also requests that the BCC authorize the Chairman to execute any future grant documents, including modifications to the grant agreement that don't change the total dollar amount.

If the Grantee finds, after receipt of competitive bids, that the work described in Attachment A cannot be accomplished for the current estimated project cost, the parties hereto agree to modify the Project Work Plan described in Attachment A, by amendment of this Agreement, to provide for the work that can be accomplished for the funding identified above. B. Prior written approval from the Department’s Grant Manager shall be required for changes between deliverable budget categories not to exceed 10% of the total deliverable budget amount. The Department Grant Manager will transmit a copy of the written approval and revised budget to the Department Contracts Disbursements Office for Revised 7/14 DEP Agreement No. LP46042, Page 1 of 12 Packet Pg. 664 inclusion in the Agreement file.

In this instance, the Grantee shall request the advance written approval from the Department’s Grant Manager of the fixed price negotiated by the Grantee. The letter of request shall be supported by a detailed budget and Scope of Services to be performed by the subcontractor. Upon receipt of the Department Grant Manager’s approval of the fixed price amount, the Grantee may proceed in finalizing the fixed price subcontract. c.

Upon the Department’s notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP, the Grantee shall have ten (10) calendar days to commence implementation of the accepted plan. Acceptance of the proposed CAP by the Department does not alter or amend the Grantee’s obligations under this Agreement. If the CAP fails to correct or eliminate performance deficiencies by the Grantee, the Department shall retain the right to require additional or further remedial steps, or to terminate this Agreement for failure to perform. No actions approved by the Department or steps taken by the Grantee shall serve to condone, forgive or estop the Department from asserting subsequent deficiencies in performance. The Grantee shall continue to implement the CAP until all deficiencies are corrected. Reports on the progress of the CAP will be made to the Department as requested by the Department Grant Manager. C. Failure to respond to the Department’s request for a CAP or failure to correct a deficiency in the performance of the Grantee as specified by the Department may result in termination of this Agreement. The remedies set forth above are not exclusive and the Department reserves the right to exercise other remedies in addition to or in lieu of those set forth above. 10. This Agreement may be unilaterally canceled by the Department for refusal by the Grantee to allow public access to all documents, papers, letters, or other material made or received by the Grantee in conjunction with this Agreement, unless the records are exempt pursuant to Section 24(a) of Article I of the State Constitution, Section 119.07(1), Florida Statutes, or other statute. 11. The Grantee shall maintain books, records and documents directly pertinent to performance under this Agreement in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

The older 16-inch ductile iron water main, which is suspended along the side of Brooks Bridge, is exhibiting signs of significant deterioration and is vulnerable to hurricanes and damage from other external forces. The newer main was installed as a subaqueous horizontal directional drill (HDD) that extends from the mainland to the island as it crosses under the Santa Rosa Sound (Sound). The length of the subaqueous segment of the main is approximately 1,400 feet. Once the new main was placed into operation, the older main was taken out of service but left in place as a back-up as long as the deterioration did not become too extensive. In 2006, the County discovered a leak in the newer main and immediately took it offline. The original main was placed back into service because it was the only alternative for maintaining water service to Okaloosa Island. Through a series of complicated inspections, the County discovered that the newer main was torn at a location approximately half way across the Santa Rosa Sound and over 70 feet below the bottom of the Sound. The tear, which ranged from approximately ¼ inch to 1 inch wide, extended from the 3 o'clock position to the 9 o'clock position on the pipe. The County began formulating and implementing a plan in an attempt to repair the main immediately after accumulating the applicable data and assessing the extent of the damage. The County had initially pursued repairing the main, but was unsuccessful because of the difficult access to the tear, the accumulation of sand through the tear, and the difficulty of repairing the leak while maintaining the service to island. The County decided that the most feasible alternative for providing a long-term, reliable source of potable water to the island is to replace the main with a new subaqueous pipe. Project Description: The proposed replacement main is anticipated to consist of approximately 3,800 linear feet of 20-inch diameter, high density polyethylene pipe installed below the Sound and on the Island via directional bore. Because easements have not yet been obtained and final alignment is not known, the approximate linear foot, diameter, and type of pipe is subject to change. Task 1.

Attached for your review is both the modification itself and the completed County Contract Review Coordination Sheet. BACKGROUND: In September 2011, Okaloosa County went under contract (FA2823-11-C- 0030; County Contract No. C11-1906-WS) with the U.S. Air Force for the construction of the Duke Field wastewater infrastructure. The contract was modified in August 2012 to add the following: CECs for Duke Field, construction costs for Main Base wastewater infrastructure, CECs for Main Base, construction costs for Camp Rudder wastewater infrastructure, and CECs for Camp Rudder. The total contract is now $16,699,568; of that, $8,026,192 is reimbursement of design and construction costs, and $8,673,376 is for CECs. A third contract modification was executed in April 2013 for flow charges (AKA monthly billing rates) related to transmitting, treating, and disposing of Eglin AFB's wastewater at Duke Field, Main Base, and Camp Rudder. No money was assigned to this modification. A fourth contract modification was executed in June 2013 to correct several administrative oversights pertaining to miscalculated delivery dates, payment methods, and verbiage of Eglin's internal processes. No money was assigned to this modification. A fifth contract modification was executed in December 2013 to extend the delivery dates for the construction work and CECs for Phase II (Eglin Main Connections) and Phase III (Camp Rudder Connections) by an additional 8 months due to government delays. The modification only extends delivery dates, and had no effect on financial terms. Eglin AFB would now like to execute a sixth contract modification to extend the delivery dates for the construction work and CECs for Phase III (Camp Rudder Connections) by an additional 6 months due to government delays. The modification only extends delivery dates, and has no effect on financial terms. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. Packet Pg. 690 RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommends approval by the BCC to authorize the Chairman to execute the sixth contract modification to the Eglin Wastewater Treatment Re- configuration contract (FA2823-11-C-0030) for the delivery date extensions associated with construction work and CECs for Camp Rudder.

The Strategic Marketing Plan must be revised in the form of a Resolution to reflect this change. This change is evidenced in red font on page 5 of the attached FY 2013-14 Consolidated Strategic Marketing Plan - Revised. The Tourist Development Council reviewed the revised SMP and voted to recommend approval at its October 23, 2014 meeting.

November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Ed Schroeder SUBJECT: FY15 SMP Update DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department BCC DISTRICT: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Pursuant to Section D.200(2) of the Tourist Development Department Operations and Procedures Manual, the Strategic Marketing Plan (SMP) sets forth the proposed marketing activities and expenditures for the year. BACKGROUND: Actual partner participation in the co-op program is less than anticipated in the SMP adopted by the Board on August 19. Several co-op opportunities are not being pursued due to lack of partner interest, and the agency has proposed alternatives. These changes result in a minor net decrease to co-op program costs. The Tourist Development Council reviewed this SMP co-op program update and voted to recommend approval at its October 23, 2014 meeting. Peter Mayer Task Order 150, which authorizes the advertising agency to purchase media under the co-op program, is currently being revised and will be presented on November 18. OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove RECOMMENDATION: Approve the following: 1) Elimination of Collinson Media (print), Rachael Ray/More (print), International Travel Guide (print), and Southern Living (digital) from the co-op program. 2) Addition of Fall Travel to the Southeast (print/digital) and Southwest Spirit (print) to the co- op-program. 3) Staff to present amendment of the SMP in the form of a resolution on a quarterly basis to memorialize changes. RECOMMENDED BY: Packet Pg. 721 APPROVED BY: John Hofstad, Interim County Administrator Packet Pg. 722 Packet Pg. 723 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Ed Schroeder SUBJECT: Non-Deployment of the Tenneco DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department BCC DISTRICT: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request cancelling the deployment of the Tenneco vessel as an artificial reef to avoid the risks of towing and deploying an aging vessel of questionable structural integrity. BACKGROUND: The Tenneco is a concrete hulled vessel constructed in St. Marks, FL in 1942. The TDC allocated $75K for deployment of the Tenneco vessel as an artificial reef to serve as a dive certification platform on May 30, 2013. The BCC approved the acquisition of the Tenneco on June 18, 2013 pending certain conditions being met. The permit for the Tenneco deployment area has been approved by the FDEP, but it is still pending USACE approval. It is unknown when the County will receive USACE approval for Fish Haven 19. A positive HazMat inspection has been received from SCS Engineering, and a positive Coast Guard inspection has been completed. The approved/awarded marine contractor’s insurance should provide coverage during transport of the vessel, but the County will need to provide coverage once the vessel is docked. Before the Tenneco can be deployed as artificial reef material, it will need to be completely cleaned and stripped of all wooden materials, tanks, and hazardous materials. Very little of the original deck structure (structures that visually define it as a vessel) will remain intact. The Tenneco will essentially be a cigar shaped concrete hull resting in approximately 60 feet of water. The logistics for prepping the vessel for deployment will include the coordination of volunteer groups to perform the work, dumpsters and barrels for the disposal of waste oils, fuel, and other hazardous materials, and heavy equipment may be required to efficiently deconstruct the entire upper wooden deck area. The Tenneco is currently moored in Bayou Chico, directly adjacent to the Barrancas Ave Bridge and Pelican’s Perch Marina. Unless a safe harbor can be found within Okaloosa County, the Tenneco will need to be cleaned and prepped for deployment in Pensacola. Preparation of the Tenneco has not been yet begun, but it will take a significant effort and may present Okaloosa County with additional liabilities. In addition, the marine contractor that removed the vessel from the Pelican’s Perch Marina berth pointed out that they felt that the vessel was “a little fragile” and stated that they used great caution when they pulled it away from the dock and off of the bottom where it had been resting for approximately 30 years. The Pelican’s Perch Marina is under pressure from the FDEP to dispose of the Tenneco as a condition of their submerged land lease renewal, and Okaloosa County TDD was recently contacted for support regarding the FDEP’s requirement to remove the vessel from Bayou Chico. The FY 2014-15 budget includes $75,000 for Boat Reef (account 1175-563753). Staff requests the Tenneco deployment no longer be pursued due to logistical, liability, and financial concerns. Packet Pg. 724 The budgeted funds will be better spent on deploying donated concrete materials from Eglin AFB or another structure to serve as a dive certification platform. The Tourist Development Council voted to recommend cancelling the Tenneco deployment at its October 23, 2014 meeting. OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove RECOMMENDATION: Approve cancelling deployment of the Tenneco vessel as an artificial reef.

BACKGROUND: The County is currently in a 36-month contract for dumpster service at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. In accordance with the “Customer Comments” on page 2 of 4 of WM Agreement # S0003339246, “Rate guarantee for one year excluding disposal price increases. Then cap rate increase in years 2 & 3 to no more than 3%, excluding disposal.” Waste Management invoiced a 3% increase to the haul rate and disposal rate effective 7/1/14 (the start of year 2). However, the contract must first be amended to reflect the change in price. Legal and Purchasing have reviewed the contract amendment to memorialize the rate increase, and the amendment falls within the signature authority of the Purchasing Manager. Board approval is being requested since the contract amendment date is retroactive to July 1, 2014. OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove RECOMMENDATION: Approve making Amendment 1 to Waste Management contract C03- 0898-TDC retroactive to July 1, 2014.

A Resolution amending Resolution No. 09-190 providing that the Debt Service Reserve Account on any future series of bonds be zero. 2 Supplemental Resolution delegating to the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners and the County Administrator the authorization to determine final structure within certain established parameters. BACKGROUND: On September 16, 2014 the Board of County Commissioners authorized Staff and the County’s Financial Advisor, Mark Galvin of FirstSouthwest Company to move forward with a 20 year bond issue to fund the construction plan of the Administrative Complex in Shalimar, and an RFQ for design/build contractor for the Crestview Courthouse renovation. Additionally, the Board gave direction on the construction of new building adjacent to the Sheriff's Office. Since then, staff has worked with various contractors on the three projects to the best cost estimate. Concurrently, the County Administrator, legal team, Clerk of Courts Finance Director, and other staff members and the County’s bond underwriters (RBC Capital Markets and Crews and Associates) have worked with County’s financial advisor and bond counsel in preparing the necessary documents including drafts of the preliminary official Statement and amending bond resolution. The County as part of this process had their AA rating from Standard and Poor’s affirmed and an upgrade bond rating from Fitch Rating Services From A+ to AA- in addition to securing bond insurance commitment from America Mutual. Approval of the Resolution will allow for the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners and the County Administrator the authorization to determine final structure within certain established parameters. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the resolutions as presented which authorizes the Chairman to execute all appropriate documents on behalf of the County to complete the issuance of not to exceed amount of $25 million and to award the sale of the bonds to the underwriters based on the not to exceed parameters as set forth in the resolution and with the recommendations of the Financial Advisor.

The meaning of capitalized terms used herein shall be as defined in the Resolution, the form of which is attached hereto as Appendix C, unless otherwise defined herein or where the context would clearly indicate otherwise.

Copies of such documents, agreements, reports and statements that are not included in their entirety in this Official Statement may be obtained from the office of the County's Financial Advisor. The assumptions, estimates, projections and matters of opinion contained in this Official Statement, whether or not so expressly stated, are set forth as such and not as matters of fact, and no representation is made that any of the assumptions or matters of opinion herein are valid or that any projections or estimates contained herein will be realized. Neither this Official Statement nor any other statement, which may have been made verbally or in writing in connection with the Series 2014 Bonds, other than the Resolution, is to be construed as a contract with the Registered Owners of the Series 2014 Bonds. For a description of the terms and conditions of the Series 2014 Bonds, reference is made to the Resolution, a form of which is included in Appendix C to this Official Statement. The description of the Resolution and the Series 2014 Bonds contained herein do not purport to be comprehensive or definitive, and reference is made to the Resolution, on file with the County, for the complete terms thereof.

See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS," herein. 3 Packet Pg. 843 DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS General The Series 2014 Bonds will be dated the date of delivery, will be issued in fully registered form, in the denominations of $5,000 each or integral multiples thereof, and will bear interest, computed on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the rates and mature on the dates set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement. Interest on the Series 2014 Bonds will be payable on April 1, 2015 and semiannually thereafter on April 1 and October 1 of each year. Principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2014 Bonds will be payable in the manner described under "DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS -- Book-Entry Only System" herein. The Registrar and Paying Agent for the Series 2014 Bonds is Hancock Bank, Orlando, Florida. The Series 2014 Bonds will be subject to redemption as described under "DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS -- Redemption Provisions" herein. The Series 2014 Bonds will bear a Certificate of Authentication to be manually executed by the Registrar, and no Series 2014 Bond will be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless the Certificate of Authentication thereon has been duly executed by the Registrar. Book-Entry Only System The information provided immediately below concerning DTC and the Book- Entry Only System has been obtained from DTC and is not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness by, and is not to be construed as a representation by, the Underwriter, the County or the Paying Agent. Unless the book-entry system described herein is terminated, DTC will act as securities depository for the Series 2014 Bonds. The Series 2014 Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One or more fully-registered bond certificates will be issued for the Series 2014 Bonds, and will be deposited with the Paying Agent on behalf of DTC. Individual purchases of beneficial interests in the Series 2014 Bonds will be made in increments of $5,000 or integral multiples thereof. DTC and its Participants. DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to 4 Packet Pg. 844 the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non- U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard & Poor's Rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its Direct and Indirect Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. The contents of such website do not constitute a part of this Official Statement. Purchases. Purchases of the Series 2014 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2014 Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Series 2014 Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participants through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Series 2014 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Series 2014 Bonds is discontinued. Transfers. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2014 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the Series 2014 Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial 5 Packet Pg. 845 Owners of the Series 2014 Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Series 2014 Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Notices. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of the Series 2014 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Series 2014 Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Series 2014 Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Series 2014 Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Paying Agent and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series 2014 Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Series 2014 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Series 2014 Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). NEITHER THE COUNTY NOR THE PAYING AGENT WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO SUCH PARTICIPANTS OR THE PERSONS FOR WHOM THEY ACT AS NOMINEES WITH RESPECT TO THE PAYMENTS TO OR THE PROVIDING OF NOTICE FOR THE DTC PARTICIPANTS, THE INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS. THE CITY CANNOT PROVIDE ANY ASSURANCE THAT DTC, DIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR OTHERS WILL DISTRIBUTE PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, OR INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS PAID TO DTC OR ITS NOMINEE, AS THE REGISTERED OWNER, OR ANY NOTICES TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OR THAT THEY WILL DO SO ON A TIMELY BASIS, OR THAT DTC WILL ACT IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT. 6 Packet Pg. 846 Payments. Payments on the Series 2014 Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Paying Agent on the relevant payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent or the County, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. Discontinuance of Book-Entry-Only System. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Series 2014 Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the County or the Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, certificated Series 2014 Bonds are required to be printed and delivered to the holders of record. The County may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository) with respect to the Series 2014 Bonds. Under current industry practices, however, DTC would notify its Direct or Indirect Participants of the County's decision but will only withdraw beneficial interests from a Series 2014 Bond at the request of any Direct or Indirect Participant. In that event, certificates for the Series 2014 Bonds will be printed and delivered. No Assurance Regarding DTC Practices The foregoing information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book- entry system has been obtained from sources that the County believes to be reliable, but the County, the Underwriter and the Paying Agent take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Series 2014 Bonds as nominee of DTC, references herein to the holders or registered owners of the Series 2014 Bonds will mean Cede & Co. and will not mean the Beneficial Owners of the Series 2014 Bonds. None of the County, the Paying Agent or the Underwriter will have any responsibility or obligation to the Participants, DTC or the persons for whom they act 7 Packet Pg. 847 with respect to (i) the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or by any Direct or Indirect Participant of DTC, (ii) payments or the providing of notice to the Direct Participants, the Indirect Participants or the Beneficial Owners, (iii) the selection by DTC or by any Direct or Indirect Participant of any Beneficial Owner to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Series 2014 Bonds or (iv) any other action taken by DTC or its partnership nominee as owner of the Series 2014 Bonds. Registration, Transfer and Exchange The Series 2014 Bonds will be and have all the qualities and incidents of negotiable instruments under the Uniform Commercial Code - Investment Securities Laws of the State of Florida, subject to the DTC Book-Entry Only System and to the provisions for registration, exchange and transfer contained in the Resolution and in the Series 2014 Bonds. The Series 2014 Bonds will be transferable only upon the registration books maintained for such purpose at the corporate trust office of the Registrar. So long as any of the Series 2014 Bonds remain outstanding, the Registrar must maintain and keep books for the registration of the Series 2014 Bonds. All Series 2014 Bonds presented for transfer, exchange, or payment (if so required by the County or the Registrar) must be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or authorization for exchange, in form and with guaranty of signature satisfactory to the County or the Registrar, duly executed by the Registered Owner or by his or her duly authorized attorney. The Registrar or the County may require payment from the Registered Owner or transferee of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or transfer of the Series 2014 Bonds. Such charges and expenses shall be paid before any new Series 2014 Bonds shall be delivered. The Registrar is not required to issue, transfer or exchange any Series 2014 Bonds between the Record Date and the relative Interest Payment Date on such Series 2014 Bonds or, in the case of any proposed redemption of Bonds, after any such Series 2014 Bonds or any portion thereof has been selected for redemption. New Series 2014 Bonds delivered upon any transfer or exchange will be valid obligations of the County, evidencing the same debt as the Series 2014 Bonds surrendered, will be secured by the Resolution, and will be entitled to all of the security and benefits of the Resolution to the same extent as the Series 2014 Bonds surrendered. 8 Packet Pg. 848 The County and the Registrar may treat the Registered Owner of any Series 2014 Bond as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such Series 2014 Bond is overdue, and will not be bound by any notice to the contrary. Redemption Provisions Optional Redemption. The Series 2014 Bonds maturing on and before October 1, 20_, are not redeemable prior to their stated dates of maturity. The Series 2014 Bonds or portions thereof maturing on October 1, 20_, and thereafter, are redeemable prior to their stated dates of maturity, at the option of the County, in whole or in part on October 1, 20_, and on any date thereafter, and if in part from such maturities and in such amounts as the County in its sole discretion shall select and by lot within a maturity if less than a full maturity, from moneys which may be available for such purpose and deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the date fixed for redemption, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount thereof) as set forth in the table below, together with accrued interest on such principal amount to the redemption date, if redeemed in the following periods: Redemption Period (Both Dates Inclusive) Redemption Price October 1, 20___ through September 30, 20___ October 1, 20___ through September 30, 20___ October 1, 20___ and thereafter Mandatory Redemption.

The County shall, at least sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Registrar) notify the Registrar of such redemption date and of the principal amount of Series 2014 Bonds to be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption of less than all of the outstanding Series 2014 Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Series 2014 Bonds or portions of Series 2014 Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the redemption date by the Registrar from the outstanding Series 2014 Bonds of the maturity or maturities designated by the County and, by lot within a maturity, in principal amounts of $5,000 and integral multiples thereof. If less than all of the outstanding Series 2014 Bonds of a single maturity are to be redeemed, the Registrar shall promptly notify the County and Paying Agent (if the Registrar is not the Paying Agent for such Bonds) in writing of the Series 2014 Bonds or portions of Series 2014 Bonds selected for redemption and, in the case of any Series 2014 Bond selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notice of such redemption, which shall specify the Series 2014 Bond or Bonds (or portions thereof) to be redeemed and the date and place for redemption, shall be given by the Registrar on behalf of the County, and (A) shall be filed with the Paying Agent for such Series 2014 Bonds, and (B) shall be mailed first class, postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days prior to the redemption date to all Holders of Series 2014 Bonds to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the registration books kept by the Registrar. Each notice of redemption shall state: (1) the CUSIP numbers of all Series 2014 Bonds being redeemed; (2) the original issue date of such Series 2014 Bonds; (3) the maturity date and rate of interest borne by each Series 2014 Bond being redeemed; (4) the redemption date; (5) the redemption price; (6) the date on which such notice is mailed; (7) if less than all outstanding Series 2014 Bonds are to be redeemed the certificate number (and, in the case of a partial redemption of any Series 2014 Bond, the principal amount) of each Series 2014 Bond to be redeemed; (8) that on such redemption date there shall become due and payable upon each Series 2014 Bond to be redeemed the redemption price thereof, or the redemption price of the specified portions of the principal thereof in the case of Series 2014 Bonds to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such date interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be payable; (9) that the Series 2014 Bonds to be redeemed, whether as a whole or in part, are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price at the principal office of the Paying 10 Packet Pg. 850 Agent at an address specified; and (1 0) the name and telephone number of a person designated by the Paying Agent to be responsible for such redemption. Within 60 days of the date of redemption, the Paying Agent shall give a second notice of redemption by mailing another copy of the redemption notice to the Holders of Bonds called for redemption but which have not been presented for payment within 30 days after the date set for redemption. In addition to the mailing of the notice described above, each notice of redemption and payment of the Redemption Price shall meet the following requirements; provided, however, the failure to provide such further notice of redemption or to comply with the terms of this paragraph shall not in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as prescribed above. (a) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent by certified mail or overnight delivery service or telecopy to all registered securities depositories then in the business of holding substantial amounts of obligations of types comprising the Bonds and to two or more national information services which disseminate notices of prepayment or redemption of obligations such as the Bonds. (b) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent to such other Person, if any, as shall be required by applicable law or regulation. The County may provide that a notice of redemption may be contingent upon the occurrence of certain condition(s) and that if such condition(s) do not occur the notice will be rescinded, provided notice of rescission shall be mailed in the manner described above to all affected Bondholders not later than three Business Days after the Issuer determines that such conditions will not be satisfied. Any Series 2014 Bond which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any place of payment specified in the notice of redemption (with due endorsement by, or written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the County shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Series 2014 Bond, without service charge, a new Series 2014 Bond or Series 2014 Bonds, of the same interest rate and maturity, and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Series 2014 Bonds so surrendered. Notice of redemption having been given substantially as aforesaid, the Series 2014 Bonds or portions of Series 2014 Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the 11 Packet Pg. 851 redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the County shall default in the payment of the redemption price) such Series 2014 Bonds or portions of Series 2014 Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Series 2014 Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Series 2014 Bonds shall be paid by the Registrar and/or Paying Agent at the appropriate redemption price, plus accrued interest. All Series 2014 Bonds which have been redeemed shall be cancelled by the Registrar and shall not be reissued. SOURCES OF AND SECURITY FOR PAYMENT OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS General The principal of, premium if any, and interest on the Series 2014 Bonds will be payable from and will be secured solely by a lien upon and a pledge of (i) the Sales Tax Revenues, and (ii), until applied in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution, all moneys, including investments thereof, in the funds and accounts established under the Resolution other than the Rebate Fund (collectively, the "Pledged Funds"). The Series 2014 Bonds are secured by the Pledged Funds on a parity with the County's Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2009A and Taxable Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2009B (Direct Payment Build America Bonds) (collectively, the "Series 2009 Bonds"), which are currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $________. The Series 2014 Bonds, Series 2009 Bonds and any Additional Bonds issued pursuant to the Resolution are collectively referred to herein as the "Bonds". The Series 2009B Bonds were issued as "Build America Bonds," whereby the United States Government is to provide a federal subsidy payment to the County on a semi-annual basis with respect to the Series 2009B Bonds. For purposes of issuing Additional Bonds (including the Series 2014 Bonds) and computing the Reserve Account Requirement, the Resolution provides that such federal subsidy payments shall be computed net of the federal payments. Set forth below is a table showing the amount of Federal Direct Payments received by the County in fiscal years 2010-2014: (REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK) 12 Packet Pg. 852 Federal Direct Fiscal Year Payments Received* 2010 $140,442.70 2011 484,617.02 2012 487,678.58 2013 465,000.38 2014 451,145.14 *Due to federal sequestration, the County did not receive the full amount of expected federal subsidy payments in fiscal years 2013 or 2014. Limited Obligations THE PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM IF ANY, AND INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS WILL NOT BE OR CONSTITUTE A GENERAL INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COUNTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY PROVISION OR LIMITATION, AND THE COUNTY IS NOT OBLIGATED TO LEVY ANY AD VALOREM TAXES FOR THE PAYMENT THEREOF. NEITHER THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE AD VALOREM TAXING POWER OF THE COUNTY, THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OR AGENCY THEREOF IS PLEDGED TO SUCH PAYMENT, AND NO OWNER OF ANY SERIES 2014 BOND SHALL EVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPEL THE EXERCISE OF THE AD VALOREM TAXING POWER OF THE COUNTY OR TAXATION IN ANY FORM ON ANY REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST ON SUCH SERIES 2014 BOND, OR BE ENTITLED TO PAYMENT THEREOF FROM ANY MONEYS OF THE COUNTY EXCEPT FROM THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. THE PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS DO NOT CONSTITUTE A LIEN UPON ANY PROPERTY OF OR IN THE COUNTY, OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED FUNDS, IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. Establishment of Funds and Accounts The Resolution establishes several funds and accounts, including a Revenue Fund, a Debt Service Fund, a Payment Account and a Reserve Account within the Debt Service Fund, and a Rebate Fund. The Reserve Account will not secure the Series 2014 Bonds. Moneys in these funds and accounts, other than the Rebate Fund, until applied in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution, will be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the Series 2014 Bonds and for the further security of such Holders, all as provided in the Resolution. 13 Packet Pg. 853 The moneys required to be accounted for in each of the funds and accounts established under the Resolution may be deposited in a single bank account, and funds allocated to such funds and accounts may be invested in a common investment pool, provided that adequate accounting records are maintained to reflect and control the restricted allocation of the moneys on deposit therein and such investments for the various purposes of such funds and accounts. The designation and establishment of the various funds and accounts by the Resolution does not require the establishment of any completely independent, self- balancing funds as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues for certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues as herein provided. Application of Pledged Funds Debt Service Fund. The Resolution requires the County to, within two Business Days after receipt thereof, deposit into the Revenue Fund all Sales Tax Revenues. On or before the last day of each month, subject to the credits provided for in the Resolution, the County shall deposit to the Payment Account in the Debt Service Fund such sums as are necessary to pay the principal and interest coming due on the Bonds in the current calendar month if such interest and principal amounts were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming that a year consists of twelve (12) equivalent calendar months having thirty (30) days each). Commencing in the month which is one year prior to the first Amortization Installment, there shall be deposited or credited to the Payment Account the sum which, together with the balance in such account, shall equal the Amortization Installment on all Term Bonds outstanding due and unpaid and that portion of the Amortization Installments of all Term Bonds outstanding next due which would have accrued on such Term Bonds during the then calendar month if such Amortization Installments were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming that a year consists of twelve (12) equivalent calendar months having thirty (30) days each) in equal amounts the next preceding Amortization Installment due date, or, if there is no such preceding Amortization Installment due date, from a date one year preceding the due date of such Amortization Installment. All Hedge Receipts and Direct Payments, if any, shall be deposited directly to the Payment Account upon receipt. Moneys in the Payment Account shall be used (a) to pay interest, principal and Amortization Installments on all outstanding Bonds, on a pro-rata basis, as and when the same become due, whether by redemption or otherwise, and (b) for Hedge Payments, and for other purposes. The County shall adjust the amount of the deposit into the Payment Account not later than the month immediately preceding any Interest Payment ate so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Payment Account to pay the 14 Packet Pg. 854 interest, principal and Amortization Installments on the Bonds coming due on such Interest Payment Date. No further deposit needs be made to the Interest Account when the moneys therein are equal to the interest coming due on the Outstanding Bonds on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. With respect to debt service on any Bonds which are subject to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, any Hedge Payments due to the Qualified Hedge Agreement Counterparty relating to such Bonds shall be paid to the Qualified Hedge Agreement Counterparty on a parity basis with the aforesaid required payments into the Payment Account. In computing the interest on Variable Rate Bonds which shall accrue during a calendar month, the interest rate on such Variable Rate Bonds shall be assumed to be 120% of the average of the SIFMA Index over a 12 month period of time ending on the date immediately prior to the commencement of such calendar month. Amounts accumulated in the Payment Account with respect to any Amortization Installment (together with amounts accumulated in the Payment Account with respect to interest, if any, on the Term Bonds for which such Amortization Installment was established) may be applied by the County, on or prior to the sixtieth (60th) day preceding the due date of such Amortization Installment, (a) to the purchase of Term Bonds of the series and maturity for which such Amortization Installment was established, or (b) to the redemption at the applicable redemption prices of such Term Bonds, if then redeemable by their terms. The Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be deemed to constitute part of the Payment Account until such Amortization Installment date, for the purposes of calculating the amount of such Account. As soon as practicable after the sixtieth (60) day preceding the due date of any such Amortization Installment, the County shall proceed to call for redemption on such due date, by causing notice to be given as provided in the Resolution, Term Bonds of the series and maturity for which such Amortization Installment was established (except in the case of Term Bonds maturing on an Amortization Installment date) in such amount as shall be necessary to complete the retirement of the unsatisfied balance of such Amortization Installment. The County shall pay out of the Payment Account to the Paying Agent, on or before the day preceding such redemption date (or maturity date), the amount required for the redemption (or for the payment of such Term Bonds then maturing), and such amount shall be applied by such Paying Agent to such redemption (or payment). All expenses in connection with the purchase or redemption of Term Bonds shall be paid by the County from the Revenue Fund. Reserve Account. The County shall establish within the Reserve Account a separate subaccount for each series of Bonds issued under the Resolution, except as described below. The Reserve Account Requirement for the Series 2014 Bonds is zero, and the Reserve Account does not secure the Series 2014 Bonds. The Series 2009 Bonds are secured by a subaccount of the Reserve Account. 15 Packet Pg. 855 At the option of the County, a subaccount may secure more than one series of Bonds. The moneys on deposit in each such subaccount shall be applied solely for the payment of maturing principal of, redemption price, if applicable (provided that the Reserve Account may only be applied to the payment of redemption price if all Bonds will be redeemed), or interest or Amortization Installments on the series of Bonds for which it is designated and shall not be available to pay debt service on any other series. There shall be deposited to each subaccount of the Reserve Account such sum, if any, as will be necessary to immediately restore any funds on deposit in each such subaccount to an amount equal to the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto including the reinstatement of any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit on deposit therein; provided, in no event shall the amount deposited in the subaccounts of the applicable Reserve Account be less than (a) one fourth (1/4) of the amount which would enable the County to restore the funds on deposit in each subaccount to an amount equal to the Reserve Account Requirement in four (4) months from the date of such shortfall in the event such shortfall is a result of a decrease in the market value of Authorized Investments on deposit therein, or (b) one twelfth (1/12) of the amount which would enable the County to restore the funds on deposit in each such subaccount to an amount equal to the Reserve Account Requirement in one (1) year from the date of such shortfall if such shortfall is a result of a withdrawal from such subaccount(s). Such obligation to replenish the Reserve Account shall be payable from amounts on deposit in the Revenue Fund after the deposits required to be made to the Payment Account set forth above. To the extent there are insufficient moneys in the Revenue Fund to make the required monthly deposit into each subaccount of the Reserve Account, such deposits shall be made to each subaccount on a pro rata basis in relation to the amount of the deficiency existing in each subaccount. On or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds, moneys in each subaccount of the Reserve Account shall be applied by the County to the payment of the principal of, or redemption price, if applicable, and interest on related series of Bonds to the extent moneys in the Payment Account and the Revenue Fund are insufficient therefor. Whenever there shall be surplus moneys in any subaccount of the Reserve Account by reason of a decrease in the Reserve Account Requirement or due to a deposit of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy, such surplus moneys shall be deposited by the County, upon receipt of an approving opinion of Bond Counsel, on a pro rata basis into other subaccounts, if any, containing less than the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto, and otherwise, into the Payment Account. Upon the issuance of any series of Bonds under the terms, limitations and conditions as provided in the Resolution, the County shall fund the corresponding subaccount of the Reserve Account established for such series in an amount at least equal to the Reserve Account Requirement applicable to such series of Bonds; 16 Packet Pg. 856 provided, however, that in the case of Variable Rate Bonds, no such Reserve Requirement shall be required; and provided, further that said Reserve Account Requirement may at the County's election be zero. Such required amount shall be paid in full from the proceeds of such series of Bonds or other sources, on the date of delivery of such series of Bonds. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of the required deposits into a subaccount of the Reserve Account, the County may, with the prior written consent of each Insurer and Credit Bank, as applicable, insuring or guaranteeing such series of Bonds, cause to be deposited into such subaccount a Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit for the benefit of the Bondholders in an amount equal to the difference between the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto and the sums then on deposit in such subaccount, if any. Payments to Providers of Reserve Account Letters of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policies. Any remaining amounts in the Revenue Fund shall be used to pay any outstanding amounts owed to any Insurer or provider of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit. Subordinated Indebtedness. Any remaining amounts in the Revenue Fund shall next be used to pay any outstanding amounts due and payable with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness. Surplus Funds. The balance of any moneys remaining in the Revenue Fund after the payments and deposits required as set forth above may be transferred, at the discretion of the County, to any other appropriate fund or account of the County and be used for any lawful purpose. Whenever the amount on deposit in a subaccount of the Reserve Account (other than amounts available under a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit), together with the other amounts in the Debt Service Fund, are sufficient to fully pay the corresponding series of outstanding Bonds in accordance with their terms (including principal or applicable redemption price and interest thereon), no further deposits to the Debt Service Fund for such series need be made and the funds on deposit in such subaccount of the Reserve Account may be transferred to the other accounts of the Debt Service Fund for the payment of the Bonds. The County, in its discretion, may use moneys in the Payment Account to purchase or redeem Bonds coming due on the next principal payment date, provided such purchase or redemption does not adversely affect the County's ability to pay the principal or interest coming due on such principal payment date on the Bonds not so purchased or redeemed. 17 Packet Pg. 857 At least three (3) business days prior to the date established for payment of any principal of or redemption price, if applicable, or interest on the Bonds, the County shall withdraw from the appropriate account of the Debt Service Fund sufficient moneys to pay such principal or redemption price, if applicable, or interest and deposit such moneys with the Paying Agent for the Bonds to be paid. In the event the County shall issue a series of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, the County may establish such separate subaccounts in the Payment Account, to provide for payment of the principal of and interest on such series; provided one series of Bonds shall not have preference in payment from Pledged Funds over any other series of Bonds. The Issuer may also deposit moneys in such subaccounts at such other times and in such other amounts from those provided in the Resolution as shall be necessary to pay the principal of and interest on such Bonds as the same shall become due, all as provided by the supplemental resolution authorizing such Bonds. In the case of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, amounts on deposit in any subaccounts established for such Bonds may be applied as provided in the applicable supplemental resolution to reimburse the Credit Bank for amounts drawn under such Credit Facility to pay the principal of or redemption price, if applicable, and interest on such Bonds; provided such Credit Facility shall have no priority over Bondholders or the Insurer or any provider of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit to amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Fund. Rebate Fund. The County has established a separate fund to be designated the "Rebate Fund" under the Resolution. The County will cause to be deposited into the Rebate Fund, each year, the cumulative amounts required to be deposited therein in order to make rebate payments to the United States of America pursuant to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution. Amounts deposited into the Rebate Fund are not pledged to secure the Series 2014 Bonds. Issuance of Additional Bonds The County may issue one or more series of Additional Bonds for any one or more of the following purposes: financing the cost of an additional project, or the completion thereof or of the initial Project, or refunding any or all outstanding Bonds or of any subordinated indebtedness of the County. No such Additional Bonds shall be issued (i) if there is an Event of Default under the Resolution unless such issuance will cure such Event of Default and (ii) unless the following conditions are complied with: (A) Except as otherwise provided in (D) below, there shall have been obtained and filed with the County a statement of an independent certified public 18 Packet Pg. 858 accountant of reasonable experience and responsibility: (1) stating that the books and records of the County relating to the Sales Tax Revenues have been examined by him; (2) setting forth the amount of the Sales Tax Revenues which have been received by the County during any twelve (12) consecutive months designated by the County within the twenty-four (24) months immediately preceding the date of delivery of such Additional Bonds with respect to which such statement is made; and (3) stating that the amount of the Sales Tax Revenues received during the aforementioned 12-month period equals at least 1.35 times (a) the Maximum Annual Debt Service of all Bonds then outstanding and such Additional Bonds with respect to which such statement is made and (b) any amounts then owed by the County under any Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy as a result of a drawdown on such Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy, plus 1.0 times the maximum annual debt service on any subordinated indebtedness outstanding. In the event that Florida law is amended to provide for additional sales tax revenues to be distributed to the County, and the County, by supplemental resolution, extends the pledge of the Sales Tax Revenues created by the Resolution to include such additional sales tax revenues, then for the purpose of determining whether there are sufficient Sales Tax Revenues to meet the afore-referenced tests, the independent certified public accountant shall assume that such additional sales tax revenues were in effect during the applicable twelve (12) consecutive month period. (B) For the purpose of determining the Maximum Annual Debt Service, the interest rate on additional parity Variable Rate Bonds then proposed to be issued and on outstanding Variable Rate Bonds shall be deemed to be 120% of the average of the SIFMA Index over a two year period of time ending with the date immediately prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. For the purpose of determining the Maximum Annual Debt Service under paragraph (A) above, the interest rate on Outstanding Variable Rate Bonds shall be deemed to be (1) if such Variable Rate Bonds have been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, the highest rate of interest borne by such Variable Rate Bonds during the 24 months ending on the date immediately prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds, or (2) if such Variable Rate Bonds have not been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, 120% of the average of the SIFMA Index over a two year period of time ending on the date immediately prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. (C) Additional Bonds shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Resolution the same as the outstanding Bonds, and all of the other covenants and other provisions of the Resolution (except as to details of such Additional Bonds inconsistent therewith) shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the Holders of all Bonds issued pursuant to the Resolution. Except as provided otherwise in the Resolution, all Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their issuance, shall 19 Packet Pg. 859 rank equally with respect to their lien on the Pledged Funds and their sources and security for payment therefrom without preference of any Bonds over any other. (D) In the event any Additional Bonds are issued for the purpose of refunding any Bonds then outstanding, the conditions of (A) above shall not apply, provided that the issuance of such Additional Bonds shall result in a reduction of the aggregate debt service on the Bonds. The conditions of (A) above shall apply to Additional Bonds issued to refund subordinated indebtedness and to Additional Bonds issued for refunding purposes which cannot meet the conditions of the first sentence in this paragraph. (E) In the event that the total amount of Series 2014 Bonds authorized to be issued are not issued simultaneously, such Series 2014 Bonds which are subsequently issued shall be subject to the conditions of (A) above. (F) No Additional Bonds shall be issued if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Resolution Investment of Moneys The Construction Fund, the Revenue Fund and the Debt Service Fund shall be continuously secured in the manner by which the deposit of public funds are authorized to be secured by the laws of the State. Moneys on deposit in the Construction Fund, the Revenue Fund and the Debt Service Fund, other than the Reserve Account, may be invested and reinvested in Authorized Investments maturing not later than the date on which the moneys therein will be needed for the purposes of such fund or account. Moneys on deposit in the Reserve Account may be invested or reinvested in Authorized Investments which shall mature no later than five (5) years from the date of acquisition thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, all amounts on deposit in the Construction Fund or Payment Account representing accrued or capitalized interest shall be held by the County, shall be pledged solely to the payment of interest on the corresponding series of Bonds and shall be invested only in United States Obligations, as defined in the Resolution, maturing at such times and in such amounts as are necessary to pay the interest to which they are pledged. Any and all income received by the County from the investment of moneys in the Construction Fund, the Payment Account, the Revenue Fund and each subaccount of the Reserve Account (to the extent such income and the other amounts therein are less than the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto), shall be retained in such respective fund, account or subaccount. Any and all income received by the County from the investment of moneys in each subaccount of the Reserve Account (to the extent such income and the other amounts therein are greater than the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto) shall be deposited in the Payment Account. 20 Packet Pg. 860 All investments shall be valued at the lower of market value (exclusive of accrued interest) and cost. Nothing contained in the Resolution shall prevent any Authorized Investments acquired as investments of or security for funds held under the Resolution from being issued or held in book-entry form on the books of the Department of the Treasury of the United States. Investments (except investment agreements) in funds and accounts established under the Resolution shall be valued by the County as frequently as deemed necessary by any Insurer or Credit Bank, but not less often than semi-annually, and, in the case of the Reserve Account, upon any draw therefrom, nor more often than monthly, at the market value thereof, exclusive of accrued interest. The County shall terminate any repurchase agreement upon a failure of the counterparty thereto to maintain the requisite collateral percentage after the restoration period and, if not paid by the counterparty in federal funds against transfer of the repo securities, liquidate the collateral. The County shall give notice to any provider of an investment agreement in accordance with the terms of the investment agreement so as to receive funds thereunder with no penalty or premium paid. The Paying Agent or the County shall, upon actual knowledge of the withdrawal or suspension of either of the ratings of an investment agreement provider or a drop in the ratings thereon below "A", so notify each Insurer and Credit Bank and, if so directed by such Insurer or Credit Bank, shall demand further collateralization of the agreement or liquidation thereof. PLEDGED FUNDS Sources of Payment General. The Series 2014 Bonds are payable solely from and secured by a pledge of and lien upon the proceeds of the local government half-cent sales tax allocated for and distributed monthly to the County pursuant to Chapter 218, Part VI, Florida Statutes (the "Sales Tax Revenues") and, (2) until applied in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution, all moneys, including investments thereof, in the funds and accounts established in the Resolution, other than the Rebate Fund (collectively, hereinafter called the "Pledged Funds"). THE SERIES 2014 BONDS, THE PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND THE INTEREST THEREON SHALL NOT BE OR CONSTITUTE GENERAL 21 Packet Pg. 861 OBLIGATIONS OR INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COUNTY (OR "BONDS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA), BUT SHALL BE PAYABLE FROM AND SECURED SOLELY BY A LIEN UPON AND A PLEDGE OF THE PLEDGED FUNDS AS PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. NO REGISTERED OWNER OR OWNERS OF ANY SERIES 2014 BONDS SHALL EVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPEL THE EXERCISE OF THE AD VALOREM TAXING POWER OF THE COUNTY OR TAXATION IN ANY FORM ON ANY PROPERTY WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE COUNTY TO PAY THE SERIES 2014 BONDS, THE PREMIUM, IF ANY, OR THE INTEREST THEREON OR BE ENTITLED TO PAYMENT OF SUCH PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST FROM ANY OTHER FUNDS OF THE COUNTY EXCEPT FROM THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. THE SERIES 2014 BONDS, THE PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND THE INTEREST THEREON SHALL NOT HAVE OR BE A LIEN UPON ANY PROPERTY OF OR IN THE COUNTY, OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. Local Government Half-Cent Sales Tax. The Local Government Half-Cent Sales Tax is remitted to the County pursuant to Chapter 218, Part VI, Florida Statutes, as amended (the "Half-Sales Tax Act"). The Florida Revenue Act of 1949, Chapter 212, Part I, Florida Statutes, as amended (the "Sales Tax Act") authorizes the levy and collection by the State of Florida of a sales tax upon, among other things, the sales price of each item or article of tangible personal property sold at retail in the State of Florida, subject to certain exceptions and dealer allowances as set forth in the Sales Tax Act. The sales tax in Florida is currently six percent. The sales tax is collected on behalf of the State of Florida by businesses at the time of sale at retail, use, consumption, or storage for use or consumption, of taxable property and remitted to the State on a monthly basis. The Sales Tax Act provides for penalties and fines, including criminal prosecution, for non-compliance with the provisions thereof. All funds received and collected by the State of Florida are required to be deposited in the General Revenue Fund of the State and then distributed to various funds as enumerated in the Sales Tax Act. After various enumerated distributions, a portion of the amount remitted by a sales tax dealer within a participating county is required to be transferred into the Local Government Half-Cent Sales Tax Clearing Trust Fund (the "Trust Fund") and earmarked for distribution to the governing body of that participating county and of each participating municipality within that county pursuant to formulas set forth in the Sales Tax Act. The sales tax does not include any sales tax revenues which may be distributed to the County from the Discretionary Sales Tax Clearing Trust Fund pursuant to Sections 212.054 and 212.055, Florida 22 Packet Pg. 862 Statutes or any discretionary communications service tax imposed by the County on communications services pursuant to Section 202.19, Florida Statutes. The Sales Tax collected within a county and distributed to local government units is distributed among the county and the municipalities therein in accordance with the following formula: County Share (percentage of total Half-Cent = unincorporated + 2/3 incorporated Sales Tax receipts) area population area population __________________________________ total county + 2/3 incorporated population area population Municipality Share (percentage of total Half-Cent = municipality population Sales Tax receipts) __________________________________ total county + 2/3 incorporated population area population For purposes of the foregoing formula, "population" is based upon the latest official State estimate of population certified prior to the beginning of the local government fiscal year. Should any unincorporated area of Okaloosa County become hereafter incorporated as a municipality, the share of the sales tax received by the County would be reduced. The sales tax is distributed from the Trust Fund on a monthly basis to participating units of local government. The Sales Tax Act permits the County to pledge its share of the sales tax for the payment of principal of and interest on any capital project. To be eligible to participate in the sales tax, the counties and municipalities must comply with certain requirements set forth in the Sales Tax Act. These requirements include those concerning the reporting and auditing of its finances, the levying of ad valorem taxes or receipt of other revenue sources, and certifying certain requirements pertaining to the employment and compensation of law enforcement officers, the employment of fire fighters, the auditing of certain dependent special districts, and the method of fixing millage rates for the levying of ad valorem taxes. Although the Sales Tax Act does not impose any limitation upon the number of years during which the County can receive distribution of the sales tax from the Trust Fund, there may be future amendments to the Sales Tax Act. To be eligible to 23 Packet Pg. 863 participate in the Trust Fund in future years, the County must comply with certain eligibility and reporting requirements of the Sales Tax Act, otherwise, the County will not be entitled to any Trust Fund distributions for twelve (12) months following a "determination of noncompliance" by the State Department or Revenue. The County has complied with all of the requirements set forth in the Sales Tax Act. Historical Sales Tax Revenues The following table sets forth the historical Sales Tax Revenues collected by the County for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 through 2013 (audited).

Source: Okaloosa County Finance Department. Distribution of Sales Tax Revenues The County's percentage of the County-wide total distributions of the Sales Tax in each of the State Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2009 through 2013, inclusive, has been 68%.

MUNICIPAL BOND INSURANCE The County has received a commitment from Build America Mutual Assurance Company (the "Insurer") to issue a Municipal Bond Insurance Policy (the "Policy") for the Series 2014 Bonds. As described on the cover hereof, the County will make a decision at pricing regarding which Series 2014 Bonds, if any, will be guaranteed under the Policy. Any such Series 2014 Bonds so insured are referred to herein as the "Insured Bonds". THE PROJECT The Project is the acquisition and construction of additional County facilities to be known as the "Southside Annex", improvements to the County Courthouse in Crestview, and other capital improvements. 25 Packet Pg. 865 INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS General The purchase of the Series 2014 Bonds involves a degree of risk, as is the case with all investments. Factors that could affect the County's ability to perform its obligations under the Resolution, including the timely payment of principal of and interest on the Series 2014 Bonds, include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following: Limited Special Obligations The Series 2014 Bonds are limited, special obligations of the County, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on which are payable from and secured solely by a pledge of and lien on the Pledged Funds. THE SERIES 2014 BONDS DO NOT CONSTITUTE A GENERAL OBLIGATION OR INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COUNTY AND ARE NOT "SERIES 2014 BONDS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. NO REGISTERED OWNER OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY SERIES 2014 BONDS WILL EVER HAVE THE RIGHT (1) TO COMPEL THE LEVY OF AD VALOREM TAXES TO PAY PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, OR INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS, OR (2) TO COMPEL THE COUNTY TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS FROM ANY FUNDS OF THE COUNTY OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. THE PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS DO NOT CONSTITUTE A LIEN ON ANY PROPERTY OF OR IN THE COUNTY OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN THE RESOLUTION. Bond Insurance Although some or all of the Series 2014 Bonds may be insured by the Municipal Bond Insurance Policy issued by the Insurer which unconditionally guarantees the payment of that portion of the principal of and interest on Insured Bonds which has become due for payment, but which is unpaid by reason of nonpayment by the County, there can be no assurance that the Insurer will make such payments. In the event of default of the payment of principal or interest with respect to the Insured Bonds when all or some becomes due, any owner of the Insured Bonds shall have a claim under the Policy for such payments. However, in the event of any 26 Packet Pg. 866 acceleration of the due date of such principal by reason of mandatory or optional redemption or acceleration resulting from default or otherwise, other than any advancement of maturity pursuant to a mandatory sinking fund payment, the payments are to be made in such amounts and at such times as such payments would have been due had there not been any such acceleration. The Policy does not insure against redemption premium, if any. The payment of principal and interest in connection with mandatory or optional prepayment of the Insured Bonds by the County which is recovered by the County from the bond owner as a voidable preference under applicable bankruptcy law is covered by the insurance policy, however, such payments will be made by the Insurer at such time and in such amounts as would have been due absent such prepayment by the County unless the Insurer chooses to pay such amounts at an earlier date. Under most circumstances, default of payment of principal and interest does not obligate acceleration of the obligations of the Insurer without appropriate consent. The Insurer may direct and must consent to any remedies and the Insurer's consent may be required in connection with amendments to any applicable bond documents. In the event the Insurer is unable to make payment of principal and interest as such payments become due under the Policy, the Insured Bonds are payable solely from the moneys received pursuant to the Resolution. In the event the Insurer becomes obligated to make payments with respect to the Insured Bonds, no assurance is given that such event will not adversely affect the market price of the Insured Bonds or the marketability (liquidity) for the Insured Bonds. The long-term ratings on the Insured Bonds are dependent in part on the financial strength of the Insurer and its claim paying ability. The Insurer's financial strength and claims paying ability are predicated upon a number of factors which could change over time. No assurance is given that the long-term ratings of the Insurer and of the ratings on the Insured Bonds insured by the Insurer will not be subject to downgrade and such event could adversely affect the market price of the Insured Bonds or the marketability (liquidity) for the Insured Bonds. See "RATINGS" herein. The obligations of the Insurer are general obligations of the Insurer and in an event of default by the Insurer, the remedies available may be limited by applicable bankruptcy law or other similar laws related to insolvency. Neither the County nor the Underwriters have made independent investigation into the claims paying ability of the Insurer and no assurance or representation regarding the financial strength or projected financial strength of the Insurer is given. Thus, when making an investment decision, potential investors should carefully 27 Packet Pg. 867 consider the ability of the County to pay principal and interest on the Insured Bonds and the claims paying ability of the Insurer, particularly over the life of the investment. Economic Factors The Pledged Funds consist primarily of the Sales Tax Revenues received by the County. Worsening economic conditions could impact the County's ability to pay principal and interest on the Series 2014 Bonds. See "SALES TAX REVENUES" and "THE COUNTY - Eglin Complex" herein. THE COUNTY Background The County encompasses approximately 1,936 square miles, with approximately 24 miles of coastline along the Gulf of Mexico. It is bordered on the west by Santa Rosa County, on the north by the State of Alabama and on the east by Walton County. The County was created by an act of the legislature of Florida in 1915. The County seat is located at the City of Crestview in the northern portion of the County. Incorporated cities in the County include: Cinco Bayou, Crestview, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Laurel Hill, Mary Esther, Niceville, Shalimar and Valpariso. Eglin Complex Eglin Air Force Base is the largest Air Force Base in the world, covering 724 square miles of land and approximately 123,000 square miles of water ranges in the Gulf of Mexico. The base actually encompasses three military installations; Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field and Duke Field, collectively known as the "Eglin Complex". Eglin Air Force Base was established in 1934 and is responsible for development, acquisition, testing, deployment and containment of all air-delivered weapons. Hurlburt Field is headquarters to the Air Force Special Operations Command and its mission is to support training and execution of worldwide special air operations. Duke Field houses the 9191 Special Operations Wing, the only special operations unit in the Air Force Reserve. The Eglin Complex is under the direction of the Air Material Command and the Air Armament Center. The Air Armament Center is responsible for planning, development, direction, testing and evaluation of U.S. and allied air armament, navigation/guidance systems, and command and central systems for all air-delivered weapons. The Eglin Complex houses over fifty associate units of the Air Force, including specialized schools, operations and tactical wings, laboratories and research units. 28 Packet Pg. 868 According to the Economic Development Council of Okaloosa County, approximately 41% of the land area of the County is covered by the Eglin Complex and approximately 70% of the County's economic activity comes from the military and civilian installations connected to the Eglin Complex. The economic viability of the County is directly dependent on the military. The County's military installations are the prime generators of economic activity that support active military, civil service, military dependents and retired military personnel and their families. Further, defense related spending in the County generates additional employment and wages and many of the largest defense contractors in Florida have operations in the County. In November, 2005, the United States Defense Base Realignment and Closure Commission, commonly referred to as "BRAC", ordered 22 major U.S. military bases closed. As a result of the closures and realignments, approximately 5,000 new military and civilian personnel will be living and working at the Eglin Complex, including the U.S. Army 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne) which will be relocated from Fort Bragg, North Carolina to the Eglin Complex. It is estimated that the population impact, including spouses and children, will be approximately 6,000 people. The F35 Joint Strike Fighter Initial Training Center will also come to the Eglin Complex. The first F35s are expected to arrive in 2010 and the estimated population impact through 2016 is estimated at 4,800. Population The total population of the County was 170,498 in 2000 according to the U.S. Census Bureau and was estimated to be 180,822 in 2012, according to the Florida Statistical Abstract 2012 published by the University of Florida, Bureau of Economic and Business Research. The population and commercial growth of the County is primarily in the coastal area of the County along the Gulf of Mexico within the cities of Fort Walton Beach and Destin at the hub of the population center. Government The County is governed by an elected five-member Board of County Commissioners (the "Board"). Each Commissioner is elected for a four-year term of office. The Board appoints a County Administrator to administer the County's programs. The Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County is the clerk, auditor and comptroller for the Board. The County seat is in Crestview, with a branch office in Shalimar. In addition to the courthouse facilities, service complexes are located in the north and southern sections of the County. Listed below are current members duly elected of the Board of County Commissioners and their term expiration dates. 29 Packet Pg. 869 Date Current Name Term Expires Kelly Windes, Chairman November 2016 Nathan Boyles, Vice Chairman November 2016 Wayne Harris November 2016 Dave Parisot November 2014 Don Amunds November 2014 Budgetary Process The County's annual budget is prepared pursuant to Chapters 129 and 200 of the Florida Statutes and represents the County's legal authority to levy taxes and expend funds for County purposes. The Board will be held personally liable and subject to penalty for making unbudgeted expenditures. On or before June 1 of each year the Sheriff, the Clerk of the Circuit Court and the Supervisor of Elections must each submit to the Board a tentative budget request for their respective offices for the ensuing fiscal year. No later than 15 days after the Property Appraiser certifies the tax roll, the County Budget Officer prepares and presents to the Board a tentative budget for each Board fund. The Board receives and examines the tentative budget for each fund and, subject to the notice and hearing requirements, make such changes as it deems necessary provided that the budget remains in balance. A summary of the tentative budget is prepared by the Board, advertised, publicly reviewed and revised prior to final approval and adoption before the end of the fiscal year on September 30. Annual Audit Florida law requires that an annual audit of all County accounts and records be completed within one year following the end of each Fiscal Year, by an independent certified public accountant retained by the County and paid from its public funds. Description of Financial Practices The financial statements of the County are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied to local government finances. The County uses funds and accounts groups to report on its financial position and the results of its operations. A more detailed description of the financial practices of the County is included in the Notes to the County's financial statements included herein as Appendix A. A copy of the County's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 is available from the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court. 30 Packet Pg. 870 The Government Finance Officers' Association has awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the County for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013 and the County expects to receive this award again for 2014. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a governmental unit must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report, whose contents conform to industry standards. Investment Policy Moneys on deposit in the funds and accounts created under the Resolution may be invested only in Authorized Investments (as defined in the Resolution). Additionally, investment of surplus funds of the County is subject to state law, including, in particular, Section 218.415, Florida Statutes, which requires the adoption of a formal written investment policy for each unit of local government within the state. In the absence of such a formal written investment policy, investment of surplus funds is limited to certain specified types of investments. The Board of County Commissioners has adopted a formal investment policy (the "Investment Policy") which governs the investment of surplus County funds. The County's Investment Policy applies to all funds held by or for the benefit of the Board and provides for monthly reporting and quarterly detailed analysis of the investment portfolio of the County. The Investment Policy specifies the types of investments permitted and specifically prohibits the investment in derivative financial products. The investment of bond proceeds may be further limited or expanded by the respective bond resolution or covenants. The Clerk of the Circuit Court, a separate, elected, constitutional officer of the County, has been designated by the Board of County Commissioners to serve as investment manager pursuant to Section 125.31, Florida Statutes. A copy of the Investment Policy may be obtained from the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court. LEGAL MATTERS Legal Opinions Certain legal matters incident to the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds and with regard to the treatment of the interest on the Series 2014 Bonds for federal tax purposes (see "TAX EXEMPTION") are subject to the legal opinions of Nabors, Giblin, & Nickerson, P.A., Bond Counsel. The signed legal opinions, dated and premised on law in effect as of the date of original delivery of the Series 2014 Bonds, will be delivered to the Underwriters at the time of original delivery of the Series 2014 Bonds. The proposed text of the legal opinions are set forth as Appendix D hereto. The actual legal opinions to be delivered may vary from that text if necessary to reflect facts and law on the date of delivery. The opinion will speak only as of its date and 31 Packet Pg. 871 subsequent distribution of such legal opinion by recirculation of the Official Statement or otherwise shall create no implication that Bond Counsel has reviewed or expresses any opinion concerning any of the matters referenced in the opinion subsequent to its date. Certain legal matters incident to the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds will be passed upon for the County by Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., as the County Attorney. Litigation General. The Board, the Clerk, the Sheriff, the County Property Appraiser and the County Tax Collector are defendants from time to time in various lawsuits. The County Attorney represents the Board. The County Property Appraiser, the Clerk, the Sheriff, and the County Tax Collector each have separate counsel. It is the opinion of the County Attorney with respect to litigation pending against the Board that the Board either (1) has meritorious defenses against claims asserted in such litigation, (2) is immune from liability under principles of sovereign immunity, or (3) has adequate insurance coverage or reserves against liability with respect to such claims. There can be no assurance, however, that the Clerk and the Board will not incur liability for which adequate reserves do not exist, as a result of such litigation. In the event of such liability, the Board could be required, among other responses, to expend reserves, reduce the level of services, or borrow money in order to satisfy such liability. It is not expected that any such liability would affect the obligation of the Board to apply the proceeds of the Pledged Funds in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution. The Series 2014 Bonds. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the County, threatened litigation against the County which in any way questions or affects (1) the Project, (2) the validity of the Series 2014 Bonds, or any proceedings or transactions relating to their sale, issuance, or delivery, (3) the pledge of the Pledged Funds to secure payment of the Series 2014 Bonds, or (4) the provisions for collection and application of the Pledged Funds in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution. While Bond Counsel has reviewed certain portions of this Official Statement, it has not been engaged by the County to confirm or verify, and expresses and will express no opinion as to, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any statements in this Official Statement, or in any other reports, financial information, offering or disclosure documents or other information pertaining to the County, or the Series 2014 Bonds that may be prepared or made available by the County, the Underwriters or others to the holders of the Series 2014 Bonds or other parties. 32 Packet Pg. 872 TAX MATTERS RELATED TO THE SERIES 2014 BONDS Opinion of Bond Counsel In the opinion of the Bond Counsel (see Appendix D), the interest on the Series 2014 Bonds is excludable from gross income and is not a specific item of tax preference for federal income tax purposes under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions. However, interest on the Series 2014 Bonds will be includable in the computation of adjusted current earnings for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Failure by the County to comply subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds with certain requirements of the Code regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds and the timely payment of certain investment earnings to the Treasury of the United States may cause interest on the Series 2014 Bonds to become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to their date of issue. The County has covenanted in the Resolution to comply with all provisions of the Code necessary to, among other things, maintain the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Series 2014 Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation. In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel has assumed continuing compliance with such covenants. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 The Code contains a number of provisions that apply to the Series 2014 Bonds, including, among other things, restrictions relating to the use of investment of the proceeds of the Series 2014 Bonds and the payment of certain arbitrage earnings in excess of the "yield" on the Series 2014 Bonds to the Treasury of the United States. Noncompliance with such provisions may result in interest on the Series 2014 Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to their date of issue. Collateral Tax Consequences Except as described above, Bond Counsel will express no opinion regarding the federal income tax consequences resulting from the ownership of, receipt or accrual of interest on, or disposition of, the Series 2014 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Series 2014 Bonds should be aware that the ownership of the Series 2014 Bonds may result in other collateral federal tax consequences. For example, ownership of the Series 2014 Bonds may result in collateral tax consequences to various types of corporations relating to (1) denial of interest deduction to purchase or carry such Series 2014 Bonds, (2) the branch profits tax, and (3) the inclusion of interest on the Series 2014 Bonds in passive income for certain Subchapter S 33 Packet Pg. 873 corporations. In addition, the interest on the Series 2014 Bonds may be included in gross income by recipients of certain Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits. PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, SALE OR DISPOSTION OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS AND THE RECEIPT OR ACCRUAL OF THE INTEREST THEREON MAY HAVE ADVERSE FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR CERTAIN INDIVIDUAL OR CORPORATE BONDHOLDERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE CONSEQUENCES DESCRIBED ABOVE. PROSPECTIVE BONDHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX SPECIALISTS FOR INFORMATION IN THAT REGARD. Other Tax Matters INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS MAY BE SUBJECT TO STATE OR LOCAL INCOME TAXATION UNDER APPLICABLE STATE OR LOCAL LAWS IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS. PURCHASERS OF THE SERIES 2014 BONDS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE INCOME TAX STATUS OF INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2014 BONDS IN THEIR PARTICULAR STATE OR LOCAL JURISDICTIONS. During recent years legislative proposals have been introduced in Congress, and in some cases enacted, that altered certain federal tax consequences resulting from the ownership of obligations that are similar to the Series 2014 Bonds. In some cases these proposals have contained provisions that altered these consequences on a retroactive basis. Such alteration of federal tax consequences may have affected the market value of obligations similar to the Series 2014 Bonds. From time to time, legislative proposals are pending which could have an effect on both the federal tax consequences resulting from ownership of the Series 2014 Bonds and their market value. No assurance can be given that additional legislative proposals will not be introduced or enacted that would or might apply to, or have an adverse effect upon, the Series 2014 Bonds. For example, proposals have been discussed in connection with deficit spending reduction, job creation and other tax reform efforts that could significantly reduce the benefit of, or otherwise affect the exclusion from gross income of, interest on obligations such as the Series 2014 Bonds. The President previously released legislative proposals that would, among other things, subject interest on tax- exempt obligations to a Federal income tax for taxpayers with incomes above certain thresholds for tax years beginning after 2012. The further introduction or enactment of one or more of such proposals could affect the market price or marketability of the Series 2014 Bonds. 34 Packet Pg. 874 Bond Premium The difference between the principal amount of the Series 2014 Bonds maturing on October 1, through October 1, (collectively, the "Premium Bonds") and the initial offering price to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers) at which price a substantial amount of such Premium Bonds of the same maturity was sold constitutes to an initial purchaser amortizable bond premium which is not deductible from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The amount of amortizable bond premium for a taxable year is determined actuarially on a constant interest rate basis over the term of each Premium Bond which ends on the earlier of the maturity or call date for each of the Premium Bonds which minimizes the yield on such Premium Bonds to the purchaser. For purposes of determining gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of a Premium Bond, an initial purchaser who acquires such obligation in the initial offering to the public at the initial offering price is required to decrease such purchaser's adjusted basis in such Premium Bond annually by the amount of amortizable bond premium for the taxable year. The amortization of bond premium may be taken into account as a reduction in the amount of tax-exempt income for purposes of determining various other tax consequences of owning such Bonds. Owners of the Premium Bonds are advised that they should consult with their own advisors with respect to the state and local tax consequences of owning such Premium Bonds. GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The audited financial statements of the County for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2013 have been included as Appendix A to this Official Statement as a public document. The auditor has not been requested to perform, and has not performed, any service in connection with, and is therefore not associated with, the offering of the Series 2014 Bonds. The Series 2014 Bonds are payable solely from the Pledged Funds as described herein. The financial statements included in Appendix A are presented for general information purposes only. RATINGS Standard & Poor's Ratings Group ("S&P") and Fitch Ratings ("Fitch") have assigned ratings to the Series 2014 Bonds of "AA" (stable outlook) and "AA-" (stable outlook), respectively, to the Series 2014 Bonds. There is no assurance that each such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that it will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, if in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. A downward change in or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect on 35 Packet Pg. 875 the market price of the Series 2014 Bonds. An explanation of the significance of the ratings can be received from the rating agencies. ADVISORS AND CONSULTANTS The County has retained certain advisors and consultants in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. These advisors and consultants are compensated from a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2014 Bonds, included in "Costs of Issuance" under the heading "SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS" herein; their compensation is, in some instances, contingent upon the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds and the receipt of the proceeds thereof. Financial Advisor. First Southwest Company, Orlando, Florida, serves as financial advisor (the "Financial Advisor") to the County and, in that capacity, has provided advice in connection with the planning, structuring and issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds. The Financial Advisor will not engage in any underwriting activities with regard to the issuance and sale of the Series 2014 Bonds. The Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake and has not undertaken to make an independent verification or to assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement. The Financial Advisor's fee is contingent upon the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds and is expected to be paid from a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2014 Bonds. The Financial Advisor may also provide the County with certain investment services, including providing investments for the funds and accounts created under the Resolution. Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel. Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., Tampa, Florida, represents the County as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel, and is the County Attorney. UNDERWRITING The Underwriters shown on the cover page hereof have agreed, subject to the proceedings authorizing the sale of the Series 2014 Bonds, to purchase the Series 2014 Bonds from the County. The aggregate purchase price for the Series 2014 Bonds payable to the County is $__________ ($__________ principal amount plus/less original issue premium/discount of $_________ and less Underwriters discount of $__________. The Underwriters have furnished the information on the cover page of this Official Statement pertaining to the public offering price of the Series 2014 Bonds. The public offering price of the Series 2014 Bonds may be changed from time to time by the Underwriters, and the Underwriters may allow a concession from the public offering price to certain dealers. None of the Series 2014 Bonds will be delivered by the County to the Underwriters unless all of the Series 2014 Bonds are so delivered. 36 Packet Pg. 876 DISCLOSURE MATTERS Certificate as to Official Statement The County has duly authorized, executed and delivered this Official Statement. At the time of delivery of the Series 2014 Bonds to the Underwriters, the County will provide to the Underwriters a certificate (which may be included in a consolidated closing certificate of the County), signed by those County officials who signed this Official Statement, relating to the accuracy and completeness of this Official Statement. Continuing Disclosure The County has covenanted for the benefit of Bondholders to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the Pledged Funds and the Series 2014 Bonds in each year, and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated material events. Annual financial information and operating data, the audited financial statements and the notices of material events, when and if they occur, shall be filed by the County with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board's electronic municipal access system ("EMMA"). The specific nature of the financial information, operating data, and of the type of events triggering a disclosure obligation, and other details of the undertaking are described in "Appendix F -- Form of Continuing Disclosure Certificate" attached hereto. The Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall be executed by the County prior to the issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriters in complying with the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2-12(b)5 (the "Rule") promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The County was several days late in filing its comprehensive annual financial statements for fiscal years 2010 and 2013, has inadvertently failed to include in its required annual disclosure an update of its water and sewer rates, and inadvertently failed to include a debt service coverage calculation for its sales tax-secured bonds in fiscal year 2013. In addition, certain annual reports and audited financial statements were filed late in the five years preceding 2009. The County has taken steps to ensure that these discrepancies do not occur again, including the hiring of a third-party dissemination agent. 37 Packet Pg. 877 OKALOOSA COUNTY, FLORIDA By:______________________________ Charles K.

Pension Plan Plan Description Okaloosa County contributes to the Florida Retirement System (FRS), a cost- sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services. The FRS provides retirement, disability or death benefits to plan members or their designated beneficiaries. Florida Statutes Chapter 121 provides the authority under which benefit provisions are established. The provisions may only be amended by legislative action. Beginning in 2002, a defined contribution plan alternative to the existing defined benefit plan known as the Public Employee Optional Retirement Program or the FRS Investment Plan became available to FRS members. Members in either plan B-5 Packet Pg. 884 who have reached normal retirement age may retire and continue employment with the County for up to 60 months. During that period the member's retirement benefits accumulate in the FRS Trust Fund increased by a cost-of-living adjustment each July and earned interest at an annual rate of 6.5%. The FRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained on the State of Florida Department of Management Services website at www.dms.myflorida.com. FRS Plan Changes Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100 that made substantive changes to the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The new Bill requires all FRS Investment and Pension Plan members (except those in Deferred Retirement Option Program, DROP) to now pay a 3% employee contribution, on a pretax basis, beginning on or after July 1, 2011. Cost of living adjustments (COLA) on or after July 1, 2011 are not automatic at 3%, but based on total years of service earned prior to July 1, 2011 to total years of service at retirement, multiplied by 3%. New members enrolling into FRS for the first time after July 1, 2011 will be subject to additional changes including 1) an increased vesting period from 6 years to 8 years, 2) a change calculation of benefits using Average Final Compensation (AFC) on the highest eight years of compensation as compared to highest five years. In addition, the normal retirement date for Regular, Senior Management Service, Elected Officers', and Special Risk Administrative Support Classes was modified to be age 65, with 8 years of service or 33 years of service regardless of age. Normal retirement for Special Risk Class members now at age 60, with 8 years of service, or 30 years of special risk class service or age 57, with 30 years of combined special risk class service and military service. For those members participating in the DROP program, the Legislature reduced the annual interest rate used for benefits from 6.5% to 1.3%. The funding policy relative to the FRS plan is disclosed below. Funding Policy Contribution requirements of the plan are established in Florida Statutes Chapter 121 and may only be amended by legislative action. Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100 requiring all employee members to contribute 3% to the Plan. Formerly, only employers were required to contribute to the FRS Plan. The FRS funding policy now provides for monthly employer and employee contributions at actuarially determined rates that, expressed as percentages of annual covered payroll are adequate to accumulate sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. Level percentages of payroll employer contribution rates, established by state law, are determined using the entry-age actuarial funding method. If an unfunded actuarial liability re-emerges as a result of future plan benefit changes, B-6 Packet Pg. 885 assumption changes, or methodology changes, it is assumed any unfunded actuarial liability would be amortized over 30 years, using level dollar amounts. Except for gains reserved for rate stabilization, it is anticipated future actuarial gains and losses are amortized on a rolling 10% basis, as a level dollar amount. In July 2002, the Florida Legislature established a uniform contribution rate system for the FRS, which remained in effect with the passage of Senate Bill 2100. The uniform contribution system covers both the FRS Pension Plan and the FRS Investment Plan. Employers and employees contribute a percentage of the total payroll for each class of FRS membership. The current actuarially determined contribution rates expressed as a percentage of covered payrolls are for regular employees 6.95%, special risk employees 19.06%, special risk administrative support 35.96%, elected judges 28.28%, elected county officers 33.03%, senior management service class 18.31%, and 12.84% for the Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP). The County's contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, listed below were equal to the required contributions for the year. Years Ended September 30, Elected Officials 2013 2012 2011 Board of County Commissioners $2,754,506 $2,297,942 $3,898,716 Clerk of the Circuit Court 366,186 325,565 450,543 Sheriff 2,153,332 2,017,147 2,887,232 Tax Collector 291,150 241,744 351,338 Property Appraiser 113,642 92,366 161,656 Supervisor of Elections 52,022 40,678 72,291 Total Contributions $5,730,838 $5,015,442 $7,821,776 Effective July 1, 2013, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 1810 that sets the employer-paid contribution rates for both FRS and HIS system. The employer- paid contribution rate to pay the normal costs and amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability of the FRS increased. The established rates are based on the rates recommended in the "Blended Rate Study" associated with the 2012 Actuarial Valuation of the FRS. The "Blended Rate Study" covers a thirty-year period, with rates adjusted annually. The contributions will be deposited into the FRS Trust Fund to fund retirement benefits to members participating in the FRS. B-7 Packet Pg. 886 Health Insurance Subsidy Plan Description The Board of County Commissioners contributes to the Florida Retirement System Health Insurance Subsidy (FRSHIS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services. Florida Statutes provides the authority under which benefit provisions are established. The provisions may only be amended by legislative action. The FRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained on the State of Florida Department of Management Services website at www.dms.myflorida.com. The FRS provides assistance to retirees of all state-administered retirement systems in paying health insurance costs. Eligible retirees received an extra $5 per month for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement with a minimum monthly payment of $30 and a maximum payment of $150. To be eligible to receive the Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS), a retiree under any state-administered retirement must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which can include Medicare. Any spouse or financial dependent who receives a monthly retirement benefit may also receive the HIS. Funding Policy The HIS program is funded by required contributions from FRS participating employers. According to the FRS actuarial valuation of HIS completed July 1, 2012, the unfunded actuarial liability of the HIS program was $8.8 billion. The annual required contribution (ARC) calculated in July, 2012, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 is 1.71% of active payroll. Effective July 1, 2013, with the passage of Senate Bill 1810, the employer-paid contribution rate for the HIS program increased from 1.11% of the employer's payroll to 1.20% of the employer's payroll. This contribution is added to the amount submitted for retirement contributions but is deposited in a separate trust fund (The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Trust Fund) from which Health Insurance Subsidy payments are authorized. If these contributions fail to provide full subsidy benefits to all participants, the subsidy payments may be reduced or canceled.

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF OKALOOSA COUNTY, FLORIDA, as follows: SECTION 1. FINDINGS. It is hereby found and determined that: (A) On November 17, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa County, Florida (the "County" or "Issuer") duly adopted Resolution No. 09-190 (as previously supplemented, the "Authorizing Resolution"). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Authorizing Resolution. (B) The Authorizing Resolution, as further supplemented hereby, is referred to herein as the "Bond Resolution." (C) The Authorizing Resolution provides for the issuance of Bonds thereunder, upon meeting the requirements set forth in the Authorizing Resolution. (D) The County deems it to be in the best interests of its citizens and taxpayers to issue its Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2014 (the "2014 Bonds") for the purpose of financing certain capital improvements in and for the County (described in Exhibit D attached hereto) (the "2014 Project"). The County has issued its Sales Tax Bond Anticipation Note, Series 2014 (the "2014 Note") to provide interim financing for the 2014 Project. Packet Pg. 905 (E) The principal of and interest on the 2014 Bonds and all required sinking fund, reserve and other payments shall be limited obligations of the County, payable solely from the Pledged Funds, as provided in the Authorizing Resolution. The 2014 Bonds shall not constitute a general obligation or a pledge of the faith, credit or taxing power of the County, the State of Florida, or any political subdivision thereof, within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provisions, except to the extent specifically set forth in the Authorizing Resolution. Neither the State of Florida, nor any political subdivision thereof, nor the County shall be obligated (1) to exercise its ad valorem taxing power in any form on any real or personal property of or in the County to pay the principal of the 2014 Bonds, the interest thereon, or other costs incidental thereto or (2) to pay the same from any other funds of the County except from the Pledged Funds, in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution. (F) Due to the present volatility of the market for tax-exempt obligations such as the 2014 Bonds, it is in the best interest of the County to sell the 2014 Bonds by a negotiated sale, allowing the County to enter the market at the most advantageous time, rather than at a specified advertised date, thereby permitting the County to obtain the best possible price and interest rate for the 2014 Bonds. The County acknowledges receipt of the information required by Section 218.385, Florida Statutes, in connection with the negotiated sale of the 2014 Bonds. A copy of the letter of the underwriters for said 2014 Bonds containing the aforementioned information is a condition precedent to the execution and delivery by the Issuer of the Purchase Contract referred to below. (G) RBC Capital Markets LLC, on behalf of itself and Crews & Associates, Inc. (collectively, the "Underwriters") expects to offer to purchase the 2014 Bonds from the County and submit a Bond Purchase Contract in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Purchase Contract") expressing the terms of such offer, and, assuming compliance with the provisions of Section 5 hereof, the Issuer does hereby find and determine that it is in the best financial interest of the Issuer that the terms expressed in the Purchase Contract be accepted by the Issuer. (H) The Authorizing Resolution provides that Bonds such as the 2014 Bonds shall mature on such dates and in such amounts, shall bear such rates of interest, shall be payable in such places and shall be subject to such redemption provisions as shall be determined by Supplemental Resolution adopted by the County; and it is now appropriate that the County determine parameters for such terms and details. SECTION 2. AUTHORITY FOR THIS SUPPLEMENTAL RESOLUTION. This Supplemental Resolution is adopted pursuant to Article II of the Authorizing Resolution, the provisions of the Act (as defined in the Authorizing Resolution) and other applicable provisions of law. SECTION 3. AUTHORIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE 2014 BONDS.

RBC CAPITAL MARKETS, LLC, as Underwriter, on behalf of itself and Crews & Associates, Inc. By: Mitchell N. Owens, Managing Director C-1 Packet Pg. 938 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: November 4, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Rick Owen SUBJECT: Information for Backyard Chicken Discussion and Direction DEPARTMENT: County Administrator BCC DISTRICT: All STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board of County Commissioners has expressed interest in allowing the keeping of chickens in residential areas. In order to allow such activity, it is necessary to amend various portions of the County Code to eliminate conflicts with such an activity. BACKGROUND: Numerous communities across the country, including cities and counties in Northwest Florida, have amended their land development codes and other regulations to allow the keeping of poultry as an accessory activity to residential use. Setbacks from property lines, separation requirements from inhabited buildings, the number of birds kept, and enclosure requirements are among the commonly regulated elements of raising chickens in residential areas. Some of the more common practices include: 1. Allowing chickens in rear and side yards only 2. Establishing property line setbacks, typically between 5 and 10 3. Establishing minimum distances from adjacent residential properties, typically between 20 and 30 feet 4. Establishing a maximum number of birds, 4 to 8 per residence is typical 5. Providing requirements for coops/hen houses, typically 2 - 4 square feet per bird 6. Ensuring that coops and outside enclosures are secure against predators 7. Ensuring that food containers and enclosures are secure against rodents and pests 8. Roosters are usually prohibited 9. Most ordinances reviewed do not allow the sale of eggs from chickens produced by backyard flocks, they are for the consumption of the owners of the chickens only It should also be noted that the Crestview livestock provisions attached hereto are a draft recently discussed but not voted on by the City Council. The minutes of the workshop are included as the issues raised may be applicable to County deliberations. While the issues associated with the keeping of poultry are addressed in various parts of the County Code, most particularly section 2.21.05.10 (keeping of livestock), section 9.02.03 (Community Noise Abatement), and 5-32.d (Animal Sheltering), none of these sections provides any of the types of standards that have been enacted by other communities specific to poultry. Therefore, if the Board of County Commissioners wishes to allow the keeping of "backyard flocks" for the production of eggs and possibly meat, staff recommends that the Code be Packet Pg. 939 amended to provide specific standards so that, in the event of complaints, the enforcing agencies have clear rules to enforce. Enforcement is an important consideration. The County's contract with the Panhandle Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) makes that agency responsible for enforcing "all applicable Okaloosa County ordinances and Florida statutes relating to animal control." If the County adopts specific standards for the housing of chickens, the impact on PAWS' workload, as well as potentially the Code Enforcement Division and the Sheriff's office, will need to be considered. This topic was brought before the Board at the August 19, 2014 BCC meeting with no action taken. At the request of a commissioner, staff has brought this agenda item back for further consideration. OPTIONS: The Board has three options: 1) it can direct staff to begin the drafting of regulations to allow the keeping of poultry in residential areas; 2) it can direct staff to conduct further research and bring back more refined recommendations; or 3) it can take no action. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners consider the information provided herein, and direct staff as to its intentions regarding allowing the keeping of chickens as accessory to residential uses.

Members present were: President Shannon Hayes, Vice President Mickey Rytman, Joe Blocker and Thomas Gordon, Robyn Helt. Also present were Mayor David Cadle, City Clerk Elizabeth Roy, City Attorney J. Jerome Miller, department heads and members of the press. The data reflected within these proceedings constitutes an extrapolation of information elicited from notes, observations, and recordings. Comments reflected herein are sometime paraphrased, condensed and have been edited to reflect essential subject matter covered during the meeting. Background data of individual cases heard before the council are on file with the Clerk’s office. Parties interested in receiving a verbatim account of the proceedings are responsible for coordinating with the City Clerk Department pursuant to Crestview Policy 91-1, Duplication of Public records, Chapter 119 and 283, Florida Statutes and Attorney General Opinions in force at time of enactment of Policy 91-1. 1. Call to Order Meeting called to order by Mr. Hayes at 5:00 p.m. 2. Invocation & Pledge of Allegiance The invocation was led by Ms. Helt and the pledge by Mr. Rytman. 3. Discussion, Animal Control Changes Mr. Hayes stated that the workshop today is for the Animal Control Ordinance and for the Council to address the changes. Ms. Roy stated that the four areas of main concern seems to be chickens, number of animals, tethering and to some extent pot bellied pigs. Those four items were brought up most often in workshops. She would like to cover all four of those items and to see if Council can reach a consensus of where they would like to move from here. Ms. Roy then started with the issue of the chickens. She pointed on page six in Section 10-10 titled Livestock under “b” number two that “No person shall slaughter any chickens.” The purpose of that line was that people could not raise chickens for slaughter. Her proposal for changing that is to take out the line and replace it with “No person shall raise chickens expressly for slaughter.” The other items in that section should remain the same. Mr. Blocker inquired about the number of chickens that can be kept because the number is four but he was asked if it was at one time seven or if it could be changed to seven. Ms. Roy stated that the only seven pertains to the number of domesticated animals that one can own. Nobody has inquired about the number of chickens one can own. Packet Pg. 946 Discussion ensued relative to changing the number of allowable chickens. Ms. Helt stated that she has proposed including the chickens in the Animal Ordinance, she is not in favor of the limitation of four, this should depend upon the property size. She also feels that it is not the business of the City to prevent the slaughter of chickens if it is done responsibly and humanely. Ms. Helt feels that the City should not have a prohibition against the selling of eggs to ones neighbor. Ms. Roy stated that the selling of eggs is a Heath Department and a Food and Drug Administration issue not a City of Crestview issue. Ms. Helt expressed that she feels that the word moveable as it regards to a chicken enclosure needs to be clearly defined or omitted. Because what one may consider moveable maybe not what the City considers moveable. She does not want to impose rules and regulations where she does not think it necessary when it comes to those issues. Ms. Roy stated that with the selling of the eggs if the City allows people to sell eggs is the City held liable if those eggs make someone sick this would be a question she would have to pose with the Health Department. Mr. Gordon agrees with the other Council members on their view regards to owning chickens. Mr. Hayes stated that the chickens do not pose a problem until they become a nuisance. He would like the selling of eggs to be researched. Ms. Roy stated that the number of chickens one can own is really determined by the space that is provided for the chickens to live in. If a person has the adequate amount of space for a large number of chickens and they are not a nuisance to neighbors then it may be possible to have more than four chickens. Discussion ensued relative to the space for chickens. Ms. Roy suggested that with the selling of chicken products if there is no wording specifically against it but to say that the selling is only allowed if it is by state statute. Mr. Miller commented that he does not find a sponsor for a particular policy among the legislators. Ms. Roy is not the legislator. We can produce a sponsored draft ordinance for you to approve, and then convince your fellows that, that model ought to be passed. He feels that the Council is no further along today in this mediation approach to composing legislation than they were months ago with this and other issues. There have been subject matters opened today that have some foundations in other locations in the City Code. In 1941, when Fort Walton Beach was incorporated, the driving force was that Florida was an open range state. That was the way that people in an urban area could come together and gain the authority to regulate roaming livestock. Because in unincorporated areas in Florida every property was, in practice, zoned agriculture and for agriculture uses the livestock could roam anywhere they weren’t fenced out. There was no requirement that they be fenced in. In the City’s zoning code there are permitted 2 Workshop 05/12/14 Packet Pg. 947 uses, none of them can be used by its owners for agricultural purposes except for possibly two locations that are zoned for agriculture. There seems to be some sentiment to change that and permit agricultural uses in a broader portion of the City. This would be a zoning issue not an Animal Ordinance issue. Mr. Miller suggested to Council to have a draft ordinance generated by them, with Staff if you need that assistance, would be a starting point on that expressed philosophy. Ms. Roy explained the reason that the twenty foot from the property line is in this ordinance is because of the City’s Land Use Ordinance which prohibits any kind of animals, livestock within twenty feet of a property line. By having that in the Animal Ordinance keeps it in compliance with the Land Use Ordinance. Mr. Blocker commented that with other guidelines in place if a person meets that criteria then they should be able to keep as many chickens as they please. Ms. Roy continued to speak about the other changes in the ordinance in dealing with the number of animals a person is allowed to own. At current the ordinance states that one can own at least four adult dogs and four additional animals. The change would decrease the number of domesticated animals to seven. This does decrease the total by one but it increases the amount of actual dogs one can have. Ms. Helt suggested language related to nuisance stand and we should stay of a person’s business in regards to how many pets they have. Provided they have the space, the means and take good care of their dogs as long as the dogs are not a nuisance she does not like the limitation. Mr. Rytman asked if these changes being made to this ordinance was to clarify that P.A.W.S handles the Animal Control and not the City of Crestview. This is will give P.A.W.S a guideline to regulate the animals within the City limits and we as a Council should decide what a nuisance is. Ms. Roy states that this ordinance is not being changed to accommodate a contractor. The ordinance is being changed and taking the City Animal Control out of the ordinance and to put the City in compliance. Discussion ensued relative to the topic of number of dogs and animals being a nuisance. Mr. Gordon echoed the same sentiment of Ms. Helt of keeping government out of dictating to people how many dogs a person can own. Mr. Hayes stated that he does not have a problem with the number of dogs, cats, chickens one owns as long as they are not a nuisance. He feels that citizens may not have a problem with the number of animals, but whether or not they are a nuisance may be the issue. Ms. Roy informed Mr. Hayes that there are provisions for animal nuisance in the ordinance. 3 Workshop 05/12/14 Packet Pg. 948 Mr. Hayes stated that the consensus of the Council is to look more into what defines a nuisance. Ms. Roy points out that on the current ordinance and the revised ordinance the City is designated as a Bird Sanctuary. She could not found why or how the City got this designation but in researching this that any bird that is protected is protected by Federal and State statutes. There cannot be any gun fired, fireworks displayed or any action that may prove dangerous to birds. A person cannot remove a bird from a light pole, even if it causing problems, because of this designation. Ms. Roy suggested to get rid of the Bird Sanctuary designation. Mr. Miller stated that at this point it seems that there are two legislative perspectives. He recommends that the Council do separate ordinances to get some these issues resolved. One would be to remove the provision that imposes a restriction on the number of dogs and the other would be removing the Bird Sanctuary designation. Mr. Blocker commented that from his research he agrees to remove that designation from the ordinance. Ms. Roy addresses the issue of the pot bellied pigs because in the current ordinance chickens or pigs are not allowed. In the draft ordinance it was said that the pot bellied pig is considered a domesticated animal. Ms. Helt stated that she did not want to impose a regulation on someone where a regulation does not need to exist. Discussion ensued. Ms. Roy then reached the issue of tethering as it relates to the ordinance. This is not in the current ordinance at all. This change would disallowing tethering of dogs to solid posts except for limited times when there is someone in your yard. It has been brought forth from citizens who do not want people to be able to tether a dog to a tree or a dog house as a means of restraint. If a dog is on a chain it would need to be on a moveable line not a tether. Mr. Hayes addressed Mr. Miller in relating to the number of animals and bird sanctuary will that mean a change in the ordinance or how does the process work. Mr. Miller stated that he already suggested to the Clerk to bring these items back to the Council in separate ordinances. Because there is a variety of input they will need to come back as separate ordinances. Ms. Roy asked if there was a consensus from the Council on tethering. Mr. Hayes answered that he was for what is in this ordinance now. Mr. Miller asked if the issue of tethering was in the old ordinance. 4 Workshop 05/12/14 Packet Pg. 949 Ms. Roy answered that it was not in the old one but in the rewritten ordinance. Mr. Blocker asked for clarification of the meaning of the word property as it relates to tethering a dog. He also asked if it is P.A.W.S who determines the fees a person should pay or is a fee schedule that the City provides them to determine what a person should pay when they are in violation of the ordinance. Ms. Roy informed Mr. Blocker that the ordinance clearly stated that property is defined as one’s dwelling and not a vehicle. As far as the fees, those are set by P.A.W.S because they are the collector of the fees. Those fees are used to offset the City’s cost to P.A.W.S that is in the contract now. Mr. Gordon states that his issue is with the tethering of the dog in a back of a vehicle. He feels that it would be over regulating the freedom of our constituents and those traveling through this area. He thinks that it is inhumane to tie a dog up in the backyard but do we want to have a dog tied up in the back of a vehicle because it is the City policy. Mr. Rytman agrees with what Mr. Gordon stated on this issue. Ms. Helt does not feel that this is an issue that really needs to be addressed. Even on the tethering issue, she doesn’t understand where the Council stands on it. Right now there is no prohibition in the current code related to tethering. She wants to know if the Council is going for a prohibition against tethering or not to deal with tethering at all. Discussion ensued relative to tethering. Mr. Hayes states that it seems that the Council would agree to the tethering portion of the ordinance but not to the tethering to the vehicle and to leave that to the responsibility of the owner of the animal. Ms. Helt asked that if Mr. Hayes was agreeing to the tethering portion as written. Because there is no mention of a pulley system or alternatives to tethering a dog to a stationary object as discussed. Ms. Roy stated that the verbiage for that can be added. Ms. Helt commented that from what she read it the ordinance would seem to not allow any type of tethering. Ms. Roy stated that the only tethering not allowed is the tethering to a stationary object. Mr. Blocker addressed section 10-7 where it states that an owner cannot vaccinate their own animals. Ms. Roy stated that is correct because it is a state law. 5 Workshop 05/12/14 Packet Pg. 950 Mr. Blocker does not agree with that at all even if it is a state law. Mr. Hayes then asked Council for direction or a consensus to the ordinance. Mr. Blocker recommends to do away with the number of animals a person can own whether it be a chicken, cat, pig or dog because there is legislation in place that dictates what one can do or have on their property. Mr. Hayes commented that there was a consensus to remove the number of animals from the ordinance. Mr. Gordon stated that in regards to tethering, he feels that to have a dog tied to a stationary object is inhumane there has to be some source of opportunity for the Animal Control to come in and care for the animal if the owner is not doing so. In that instance he agrees that there needs to be a tethering policy. Mr. Rytman commented that his main concern was the abuse to animals he does like the pulley system idea and is for the tethering portion of the ordinance. Mr. Hayes informed the City Clerk that the majority of the Council is in agreement with the tethering portion of the ordinance. Brian Hughes, 705 Ashley Drive, Crestview FL, wanted to congratulate the Council for resisting the urge to legislate. Because it is so easy to be influenced to pass a law against something and sometimes we don’t think the laws all the way through. He then gave an example of why items need to be thought through. Penny Crock, 310 Springwood Circle, Crestview FL, stated that she has owned up to fourteen dachshunds in a small yard, top show dogs. I have introduced myself to every person and have given them my personal information. She does not think tethering is good but if a dog jumps out of a pick-up truck in front of her car she will try to miss the dog and may hit a person. She believes restraint makes sense. A person will either take care of their dog or they won’t but someone should be able to walk in when abuse is happening. April Meier, 198 North Main Street, Crestview FL, had a question with Section 10-5, item number two that deals with no domestic animals can trespass on school grounds. Which she discussed this issue at the other Workshop concerning the Animal Ordinance. Dozier the Therapy dog does go to the schools and Ms. Meier feels the issue needs to be addressed. She then addressed the section that deals with having a dog for the physically handicap but not dogs that are used for emotional therapy. Ms. Roy stated that the section does state that the dog must trespass but if it is invited to the school there is no issue. Ken, Crestview FL, stated that he vaccinates his animals that include horses, dogs, rabbits, chickens and other animals. There are many stores that sell the vaccinations and he did not see 6 Workshop 05/12/14 Packet Pg. 951 that it was against the law because to take the animals to the a Vet it would cost four times the amount than the pack that is sold in stores. Mr. Hayes instructed the Clerk to research to find a statute that regulates vaccinations. Ms. Roy answered that it is possible that a person has to have a vet certificate to get a license. Landrum B. Edwards, 587 East Brock Avenue, Crestview FL, stated that yesterday afternoon he had a wild turkey in his yard and then he received a call from his neighbor asking him to quiet his dog and when he did there was a possum in the tree. He asked who is going to come get the possum out of the tree in the middle of the night. Mr. Edwards stated that he owned seventeen dogs at one time and was certified from his Vet to perform vaccinations to his animals. Thomas Simms, 426 Mara Drive, Crestview FL, stated that his concern is with chickens because he lives in Countryview on a quarter acre lot. From his understanding the chickens can roam free during the day in the lot. If that is done he cannot let his dog out because the dog will chase the chickens. Would it be his responsibility to train his dog to what a chicken is? His dog chases anything that comes in the yard, so since he can’t tether him what does he do. Mr. Rytman stated that he would like to see the ADA compliance added to the ordinance. Discussion ensued. 4. Other items as deemed necessary by Council 5.
