Packet Pg. 38 2013 Annual Report This report includes the activities and accomplishments of the Okaloosa County Commission on the Status of Women (OCCSW) for the year 2013. The OCCSW was established in 1995 by the Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners with the purpose of recognizing and honoring women who have made significant contributions to the improvement of women and citizens of Okaloosa County. The Wall of Honor was established by the OCCSW in partnership with the University of West Florida to accept nominations from the public for women deserving recognition for the sacrifices made to help and encourage members in the community. In May 2013, a ceremony was held on the NW Florida State College/University of West Florida (NWFSC/UWF), Ft Walton Beach campus, for the Women’s Wall of Honor recipients. The 2013 Wall of Honor inductees were Michelle Anchors, Mary E. Burnette, Mary L. Florence, Martha Gorecki, Mary W. Hahn, Valene Healey Harris, Deborah L. Hewitt, Agnes V. “Ginger” Maddox, Tammy McDaniel, Louise Postell Meyers, Rachel Bartek Morrison, LuAnn Pulliam, Gwendolyn Shelton Slife and Gail Waller. Since 1997 144 women have been inducted. A plaque is hung on the wall with the honoree names, and a book with their bios and pictures is also maintained in that room. Each year the OCCSW organizes the Hall of Fame to provide an opportunity to recognize women from Okaloosa County who have made an important impact on women and citizens in the county. In August, in recognition of Women’s Equality Day, a ceremony was held at Northwest Florida State College (NWFSC) for all nominees. The 2013 Hall of Fame inductees were Mary E. Burnette, Rogene Anchors Hasty and Sara “Sam” Seevers. Since 1995, 84 women have been inducted. Their pictures are placed in the Okaloosa County Water and Sewer Building in Fort Walton Beach, the County Court House in Crestview, and the Niceville City Chambers with the inductees of previous years. Due to the amount and quality of publicity for women obtained through the OCCSW, the awareness of the accomplishments of the women of Okaloosa County has risen significantly over the past few years. More details about the honorees and the events can be viewed at our website www.occsw.org. The OCCSW also maintains a roster of members who are available to speak to clubs and/or organizations concerning the status of women and their needs in Okaloosa County, as well as other topics of interest to all county residents. Barbara Wall (OCCSW commissioner representing District 5) has also been a member of the Florida Commission on the Status of Women (FCSW) since her appointment by Governor Christ in 2010. She served as the FCSW’s secretary in 2012, and was elected to serve as its Vice Chair in 2013. The Okaloosa County Commission on the Status of Women receives no public funding; it relies instead on support from our community. Financial contributions from local businesses, organizations and individuals enable OCCSW to continue Packet Pg. 39 its support of women in Okaloosa County through various events and projects, including the Women’s Wall of Honor and Hall of Fame, and the new annual scholarship. Additionally, OCCSW members provide food, beverages, and paper products for all OCCSW’s annual events. Commission funds were used in 2013 to purchase honoree plaques, certificates, corsages, picture frames and scrapbooks; to maintain the website; to fund the scholarship; and to renew membership in the National Association of Commissions for Women. The Commission also makes annual contributions to Children in Crisis, Shelter House and the Children’s Advocacy Center. 2013 Highlights • County Commissioner Kelly Windes installed new officers in January 2013: Shirley Pigott, chair; Valerie McLaughlin, vice chair; Mary Blackwell, secretary; Amy McBride, treasurer, and Jeanne Rief, historian. • We began the year with $2,392.98 and ended in December with a balance of $687.17. • We sent a two-member delegation to represent OCCSW at the Florida Women’s Hall of Fame induction. • In recognition of Women’s History Month, we asked the Board of County Commissioners and each city in the county to sign a Proclamation to proclaim the Month of March as Women’s History Month, and we partnered with NWFSC for its 2013 Women’s History Month program featuring Anna Rodriguez of the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking. • We presented our 2012 Annual Report to the County Commissioners in April 2013. • We established an unendowed scholarship with the NWFSC Foundation, and presented our first $1,000 scholarship to Hadley Finn in July. • We established a donor sponsorship program and published it on the website (http://www.occsw.org/donate.htm). • Mary Burnette, the OCSW nominee to the Florida Women’s Hall of Fame, was shortlisted for the governor’s review. Although not selected for induction for 2013, FCSW will automatically resubmit her in 2014. • The Nominating Committee presented a slate of incoming officers for 2014: Valerie McLaughlin, chair; Amy McBride, vice chair; Mary Blackwell, secretary; Dawn Johnson, treasurer; and Jeanne Rief, historian. (They were installed in January 2014.) • The budget for 2014 was developed and approved. • The audit committee examined the OCCSW account to ensure funds were balanced, and the books were turned over to the incoming treasurer. • The OCCSW membership logged over 189 volunteer hours per month during 2013. So you see we had a very full and fun year. We are hopeful, with the support of the community and the Board of County Commissioners, that we can further our efforts to recognize the many women who have made – and continue to make – Okaloosa the great County it is today and to assist women to improve their status.

In addition, the Board is requested to approve an extension of the incumbent contractor, AMRI, Inc. From May 1, 2014 to September 30, 2014. BACKGROUND: AMRI's contract expires May 1, 2014; however, the Task Order for preparation and submission of Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Application No. 6 needs additional time from its original estimated completion date. The PFC application process is governed by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations which require an extensive schedule including a public comment period, consultation with the airlines and the Orlando Airports District Office, before being sent to the regional office in Atlanta for review and approval. Each phase may take as much as thirty days (not all combined), so we currently estimate completion of the process in August. Further complicating the airline consultation requirement has been the recent merger of United/Continental, and the ongoing merger of American and U.S. Airways. This extension of AMRI's agreement will also facilitate the transition of the replacement consultant. Recommended selection recommendation committee members are: Gary Stanford (or designee), Clerks Office; Kimberly Kilpatrick, Water & Sewer; Bill Leaman, Convention Center; Clay Simmons, Public Works; and Jon Morris, Airports. Purchasing Department will facilitate the process. OPTIONS: Approve, disapprove, or Table RECOMMENDATIONS: The Airport Staff recommends approval of the contract extension and the selection recommendation committee membership.

WHEREAS, Commissioner Desloge is committed to bringing civility and unity back into public service to increase opportunities for taxpayers. His passion has led him to join with others in the creation and development of the Village Square and further encourages every county in Florida to endorse the candidacy of Commissioner Desloge but to also commit to attend the National Association of Counties Annual Conference in July 2014 so that all of Florida’s 67 counties can place their vote to elect Commissioner Desloge 2nd Vice President of the National Association of Counties.

Packet Pg. 71 March 4, 2014 Regular Meeting The regular Tuesday meeting of the Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners was called to order at 6: 00 p.m. at the Okaloosa County Courthouse in Crestview. Members present were Charles K. Windes, Jr., Chairman; Nathan Boyles, Vice Chairman; Wayne Harris; Dave Parisot; and Don Amunds. Also present were Gary J. Stanford, Finance Director, Clerk's Office; Ernie Padgett, County Administrator; John Dowd, County Attorney; and representatives of the media. PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICER UPDATES Mrs. Kathy Newby, Public Information Officer, opened her comments with a video promo for the Okaloosa Today program which airs on Cox Channel 6. Other highlights were: • Okaloosa County received a Recognition of Excellence in Worksi te Wellness Award from the State's Surgeon General and Secretary of Health John Armstrong. Special congratulations were extended to the Wellness Committee for this award. • Lifeguards will be on duty beginning this weekend (March 8) . • The county's website- details on winter storm stats, social media, new features (including bear sightings), and various ways to "connect" with Okaloosa County COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S UPDATE Mr. Padgett provided an update on the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) issue. He pointed out that Okaloosa County overpaid DJJ more than $3 Million, adding that thirty counties in the state were also overcharged by DJJ. Mr. Padgett said he is hoping the Legislature will do the right thing about correcting this problem but we will have to wait until the end of the 60 - day session to see . He advised the latest information he has through the Florida Association of Counties ( FAC) is there are negotiations for the counties and DJJ to work out a 50/50 split on the cost of housing juvenile offenders but there is no discussion about refunding the money owed to the counties by the state. Mr. Padgett said he would like direction from the Board to connect with FAC and to communicate a message that Okaloosa March 4, 2014 -1- Minute Book 70, Page 263 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 72 County feels strongly the cost allocation should be discussed and that the money owed the county should be part of the discussion and negotiations. Mr . Parisot provided commentary on a history of the DJJ issue, saying he believes it is headed in the same direction as the Medicare matter. He said they want to put the county's share in a trust fund but not the state's share. Mr. Parisot opined the Legislature has a history of robbing trust funds. Mr. Amunds suggested Mr. Padgett draft a strong letter, provide each commissioner with a copy, and bring the letter back for consideration at the next meeting. Mr. Parisot recommended copies of the letter be sent to the county's legislative delegation. Mr. Windes stated the Legislative Session has already begun and asked if action should be taken before the next meeting. He also asked Mr. Padgett if he needs a motion. Mr. Padgett did not feel a motion was necessary and advised he will draft a letter for the commissioners' review. COMMISSIONER'S MINUTE Mr. Parisot said last fall there was discussion about issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for auditing services. He said he would like to see that topic placed on a future agenda for discussion. Mr. Boyles stated he has nothing this evening. Mr. Amunds said it is his understanding a discussion on the West Destin Beach Restoration MSBU will be on the next Board agenda. Mr. Padgett confirmed it will be on the March 18 agenda. Mr. Harris referred to the $3 - Million overpayment to the DJJ and said he feels the Board should take a stand. Upon inquiry by Mr . Harris, Mr. Stanford confirmed the county's total in unfunded mandates is $38 Million. Mr. Windes also stated he has nothing this evening. PUBLIC COMMENTS RELATING TO THE AGENDA Undersheriff Don Adams stated for the last six weeks the Sheriff's Office has been staffing the event permit by Relev ent on behalf of V S Pink for use of James Lee Park near the Crab Trap (Public Works Department item #1) He explained this is a March 4, 2014 - 2- Minute Book 70, Page 264 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 73 marketing event by a New York agency in conjunction with Pink and Victoria Secret. Undersheriff Adams reported the Sheriff's Office does not necessarily object to the permit request but expressed concern the event will be held during Spring Break which is a taxing time for responding to calls. He pointed out the month of March has historically been the busiest time of the year, exceeding the month of July by 20% to 25%. Undersheriff Adams asked the Board to consider approval of the permit contingent upon the requestors hiring off -duty deputies for additional security. The event is scheduled to run from noon until 5: 00 p.m. on March 13. He advised the cost for 14 man hours would be $348. Upon inquiry by Mr. Pari sot, Mr. Amunds stated it will be the vendor's responsibility to pay for the off-duty officers. Undersheriff Adams stated many Chamber of Commerce members take advantage of the off - duty services for their clientele. Mr. Amunds suggested for future events the Sheriff's Office make recommendations on additional security and projected costs for same. Undersheriff Adams pointed out this is the first event of this magnitude (projected attendance is 1,000 people). Mr. Clint Rogers, representing the Crab Trap, stated he will contact the Sheriff's Office for arrangements to hire off -duty officers for the event, adding that either the Crab Trap or Pink will pay for these services. VISITOR LINDA SUMBLIN, CAREERSOURCE OKALOOSA WALTON, REBRANDING OF WORKFORCE SYSTEM Mrs. Linda Sumblin, Executive Director of CareerSource Okaloosa Walton (formerly Workforce Development Board), thanked the Board for its support and provided updated information on their services. She explained there are 24 Workforce Boards throughout the state and each one has a different name. It has been difficult for citizens to know how to locate the service with this diversity. Mrs. Sumblin stated the Chairman of the CareerSource Board is Martha Miller with Coastal Bank and the program year is from July 1 through June 30. She announced that last year the program provided service to 32,955 walk-ins. Mrs. Sumblin noted they have also worked with 2, 789 employers in the county. She provided a short video at this time to explain why the Workforce Development Boards are being renamed to CareerSource. March 4, 2014 -3- Minute Book 70, Page 265 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 74 Mr. Harris stated he has worked with this organization for fifteen years and cannot think of a better way to use taxpayer dollars than providing jobs. He spoke highly of the leadership for the Workforce Development Board/CareerSource. Mr. Parisot encouraged individuals to donate work attire to the Career Closet. Mrs. Sumblin stated they do provide professional clothing at no charge for both women and men going on interviews . She said the Career Closet began as a partnership with the United Way. VISITOR - NATHAN SPARKS, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL, PHASE III OF GULF POWER INDUSTRIAL PARK CERTIFICATION PROGRAM Mr. Nathan Sparks, Executive Director of the Economic Development Council (EDC) , stated they have been working the last few months on the Gulf Power initiative for site certification which was introduced to the county last spring. (Please see Minutes of May 21, 2013 for Board discussion on participation in the Gulf Power Site Certification Program.) Mr. Sparks stated the site selected for the program was in and around the Bob Sikes Airport and Airpark. He said EDC has been working with not only the Airports Department but the Water & Sewer, Growth Management, and Public Works Departments. Mr. Sparks stated the information before the Board is the result of Phases I and II of the program. He provided a map of the chosen site which consists of 205 acres. Mr. Sparks advised there is a minimum requirement of 100 acres for a site to be considered for the program . He said the county has been invited to participate in Phase III. Mr. Sparks stated there are some significant costs associated with the 205 - acre site and said if the Board wants to continue, it may want to consider a smaller parcel. He stated they have identified 119 acres east of the airfield which includes property along Adora Teal Way . The following items were identified by Mr. Sparks for consideration: • The fastest growing trend in economic development is the demand for project - ready industrial site locations . • Companies are not willing to wait for a community to identify appropriate sites and determine suitability for development. March 4, 2014 - 4- Minute Book 70, Page 266 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 75 • Participation in the program does not guarantee success but does guarantee you will receive priority consideration and be more competitive. • In the real world, the majority of projects/ clients are driven by speed - to-market pressure. • After the certification process is completed, the site will be added to a national registry of properties identified as ready for development. • Gulf Power anticipates launching a specific marketing campaign for newly certified site. • Northwest Florida is ahead of the curve as South and Central Florida are in the beginning stages of developing a similar program through Duke Energy. Mr. Sparks told the Board that Jackson, Bay, Walton, Santa Rosa, and Escambia Counties have also been invited to participate in Phase III. He further reported Bay and Escambia Counties are going forward. Mr. Amunds stated the projected costs for Phase III are "all over the board" and asked if the county will have time to advertise for a Request for Proposals (RFP) to get a more refined cost. Mr . Sparks replied the range of costs have been from $80, 000 to $228, 000 and the only way to truly determine a final cost is to go forward with a competitive proposal process. He said at that point the Board could have additional discussion on the value of pursuing participation in Phase III. Mr. Sparks stated there is a compressed timeline with a deadline line of September 9, 2 014 for completion of the application to participate in Phase III. Mr. Harris remarked there is opportunity for a substantial return on investment. He asked Mr. Sparks what is the worst case scenario for not participating. Mr. Sparks responding the county would not have an opportunity to compete and would not get attention from Gulf Power on the First Sites Program. He added that he is leery of the message it will send to Enterprise Florida and to Gulf Power. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, for Mr. Sparks to work with county staff to prepare and issue a RFP for engineering related to Phase III of the Gulf Power site certification program and to task the County Administrator with identifying the potential funding source for those services. Mr. Boyles asked if this is the right direction-should EDC have March 4, 2014 -5- Minute Book 70, Page 267 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 76 a more active role or should the county handle the RFP. Mr. Sparks answered that it is county property and the county should be in charge of this process. He said the EDC will play a partnership role, adding the county knows the Purchasing policies better than he does. Mr. Parisot amended his motion to provide direction to county staff to prepare and issue the RFP and for the County Administrator to identify a funding source. Mr. Harris confirmed his second. 5 yeas. VISITOR NATHAN SPARKS, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL, ANNUAL REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2013 Mr. Nathan Sparks, Executive Director of the Economic Development Council (EDC), stated in Fiscal Year 2013, Okaloosa County invested $120,933 in the EDC. This amount equates to 29% of the EDC's total operational budget. He listed a breakdown of how these funds were used: • 40% for existing industry retention and expansion • 20% for workforce development issues • 30% for strategic marketing/industry recruitment • 10% for defense support activities Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. Sparks stated he will work with county staff to have the EDC budget available on the county's website. Mr. Harris said he believes this is the first time the Board has been presented with such a comprehensive report on the use of these tax dollars. PROCLAMATION - RED CROSS MONTH Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Amunds, to approve a proclamation designating March as Red Cross Month . 5 yeas. CONSENT AGENDA APPROVAL Mr. Windes stated staff has pulled Item #6 (submit ted by the County Administrator's Office: Request for approval of Sheriff's Teen Driver's Challenge Budget and reimbursement request) .

Mr. Boyles stated it was a good process, noting staff took it seriously. He said these were strong proposals and he is comfortable supporting the recommendation of the review committee as a whole. Mr. Boyles added that he believes there is a clearer understanding by the staff and the contractor on what is expected. Mr. Harris asked if there was discussion on the Convention Center holding the liquor license. Mr. Schroeder answered that could be discussed next year. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to authorize staff to negotiate with ARAMARK. 5 yeas. WATER & SEWER SYSTEM - REQUEST FOR FINAL PAYMENT TO CONSTRUCTION SERVICES COMPANY OF FLORIDA Mr. Jeff Littrell, Water & Sewer System Director, requested approval of the final payment to Construction Services Company of Florida in the amount of $19,835 for the Main Island Lift Station Project.

PUBLIC WORKS SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT REQUEST BY RELEVENT ON BEHALF OF V S PINK Mr. John Hofstad, Public Works Director, stated a request for a special event permit has been made by Relevent on behalf of V S (Victoria Secret) Pink to hold a promotional event on March 13, 2014 from noon until 5:00 p.m. at James Lee Park. Proposed activities include a cooling lounge, juice bar, games, and a DJ. He advised the request has been vetted through all departments and copies of the insurance have been received. Mr. Hofstad said staff requests approval of the permit with the caveat outlined by Undersheriff Adams at the beginning of the meeting and with the applicant paying for the cost of additional law enforcement. Mr. Amunds made motion, seconded by Mr. Pari sot, to approve the special event permit request with the stipulation the applicant hire additional off - duty officers for security at a cost of $348. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - MUNICIPAL SERVICES BENEFIT UNIT POLICY REVISIONS Mr. Hofstad stated there has been a Municipal Services Benefit Unit/Municipal Services Taxing Unit (MSBU/MSTU) Policy in effect for several years. Existing MSBUs are for landscaping, sidewalks, and street lights. He reported there have been requests from residents in the Baker area to have road construction accomplished through a MSBU. Mr. Hofstad said in this specific instance there is no platted right - of - way and the county has no right to be on the property. He clarified that it is a two - rut private road. He stated the residents approached Mr. Boyles last year about road improvements funded through a MSBU. He informed the Board there was no mechanism in the current policy to allow this request. Mr. Hofstad advised the Board the MSBU policy has been revised and vetted through staff. He acknowledged the input from Mr. March 4, 2014 - 11 - Minute Book 70, Page 273 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 84 Boyles, adding Mr. Dowd also vetted the revisions. Mr. Hofstad stated the revised MSBU Policy provides a mechanism for unplatted property, through gathered efforts buying into the process, to have funding for making certain improvements. He stressed this policy is a "living document." The proposed revisions do allow for a petitioning process with property owners paying for the materials and using in - house resources to construct roadways. He said that is the basic addition to the policy. Mr. Boyles thanked staff, saying he thinks this is an innovative approach. He added that he believes this is a step in the right direction. Mr. Boyles said the revisions include an extensive petition process, conveying right - of-way, and buying the materials. Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. Hofstad stated the property owners would have to deed the right - of - way before any money goes into the MSBU. He added the policy outlines the timeframe for the process, pointing out the MSBU will come back before the Board for approval during an advertised public hearing. Mr. Harris commended Mr. Boyles for pushing this through. He also issued a challenge to the residents in The Pines Subdivision to make use of the policy for their benefit. Mr. Pari sot stated he likes the concept and giving people an opportunity to help themselves . He said the policy could be extended to creation of MSBUs for construction of sidewalks and stormwater systems. Mr. Pari sot stated there are some changes that need to be made to the proposed policy and he would rather those changes be inserted and brought back at the next meeting. Mr. Parisot made motion to make updates to the proposed policy and bring it back at the next meeting. Motion dies for lack of a second. Mr . Boyles asked the nature of the updates. Mr. Parisot replied some are legal "things" which should be addressed with Mr. Dowd. He said the policy should be expanded to other areas. Mr. Parisot said the language says right - of - way "must be deeded" but that would not work for stormwater across someone's property and would need to be an easement. Mr. Boyles stated the proposed revision policy is geared with some changes for MSBUs in general and others are specifically March 4, 2014 - 12- Minute Book 70, Page 274 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 85 for road construction. He said there is one policy for street lighting and one for road construction. Mr. Boyles recommended Mr. Parisot work with staff to create a third policy relating to stormwater and a fourth for sidewalks. He underscored the fact that the policies for each type of MSBU will vary. Continuing, Mr. Boyles stated he has no problem with correcting any technical difficulties. He said, however, if these are personal preferences, then there should be an opportunity to review individually, line - by - line. Mr. Boyles remarked that it is his understanding this was staffed through. Mr. Pari sot replied he sent 10 to 12 questions to Mr. Dowd and had significant discussion with staff yesterday afternoon. He again said he would like for the policy to be corrected and then returned for a vote. Mr. Boyles addressed Mr. Dowd and Mr. Hofstad and asked if there are any technical deficiencies and if the policy is ready. Mr. Hofstad replied that he thinks some of the questions are best answered by the County Attorney, such as whether it is a MSBU or a MSTU. He said some of the other issues can be cleared up. Mr. Dowd referred to a typo -- "MBSU" rather than "MSBU" requiring correction and in a couple of places reference to giving notice. He stated in the Statutes notification is required by "first class mail." Mr. Dowd said he did not know of any other deficiencies. Mr. Boyles made motion to approve the policy as written. Motion dies for lack of a second. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the revised MSBU Policy with corrections as mentioned by the County Attorney. Mr. Boyles said those are specifically for the typographical errors to be corrected and insertion of the proper statutory notification (first - class mail) . Mr. Harris amended his motion to reflect these specifics. Mr. Parisot remarked those are just two minor issues he raised with Mr. Dowd and staff. Mr. Amunds asked if there is anything time sensitive which would not allow the policy to be tabled until next week with the scrivener's errors corrected. Mr. Hofstad stated there are two options: make changes and bring back at the next meeting or take the motion and correct the typos which were identified. He again underlined the fact this is a living document. March 4, 2014 -13- Minute Book 70, Page 275 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 86 Mr. Dowd stated the policy as written refers to "lot owners" but Mr. Parisot wants the properties identified by addresses. He said that could be an issue in undeveloped subdivisions, adding that "lot owners" would be more appropriate. Mr. Dowd also advised that it will be difficult to come up with one clear method for various functions (street lights, road construction, stormwater, sidewalks, etc.). Mr. Windes asked Mr. Dowd if he agrees the policy is a "living document" which can be amended as necessary. Mr. Dowd replied, "Absolutely. It can be revised." Mr. Hofstad stated the policy can be cleaned up by: * correcting the typos * adding a provision of conveyance through easement * on page 6 regarding costs, clarify that one of the costs is ~% Tax Collector commission or 5% administra tive fee for collecting agency * insert that notification is by first-class mail Mr. Harris amended his motion to include Mr. Hofstad's recommendations. Mr. Boyles confirmed his second. Mr. Parisot asked what could happen in the next two weeks. Mr. Harris commented this is a living document and changes will be made. Mr. Boyles stated people will be out tomorrow collecting petitions, saying there is a reason to adopt the policy tonight. He pointed out this is the first MSBU of this type and it may require adjustments as we go forward. The vote was taken- 4 yeas, 1 nay (Mr. Parisot voted no). FACILITIES MAINTENANCE - AUTHORIZATION TO NEGOTIATE WITH AJAX AS DESIGN - BUILD FIRM FOR CRESTVIEW COURTHOUSE PROJECT Mr. Don Turner, Facilities Maintenance Director, stated last November the Board authorized issuance of a RFP for design-build services for the Crestview Courthouse Project. The deadline for submission of proposals was December 5, 2013. He noted the contractors have been patient waiting for a decision on the conceptual design for the project. Mr. Turner stated the review committee met on February 20 and AJAX received the number one ranking. He asked for staff to be authorized to begin negotiations with AJAX for this project. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Amunds, to authorize staff to negotiate with the top - ranked firm, AJAX, for the Crestview Courthouse Project. 5 yeas. March 4, 2014 - 14 - Minute Book 70, Page 276 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 87 FACILITIES MAINTENANCE - UPDATE BY LORD & SON CONSTRUCTION ON SHALIMAR ANNEX PROJECT Mr. Turner stated all projects are moving along normally and appear to be on track to make deadlines. Mr. Turner stated representatives from Lord & Son Construction and DAG Architects are present this evening to update the Board on design drawings for the Shalimar Annex Project. He said he will ask for approval of the 35% design drawings after the presentation. Mr. Charlie Clary, DAG Architects, reported they have discussed the drawings with the various tenants/departments and have been working with Mark Siner of Choctaw Engineering. He said the drawing on the screen shows 395 parking spaces and the stormwater retention areas. Mr. Clary stated the plan is for county employees to park in the rear of the building and public parking will be in the front. In addition to the materials in the agenda packet, Mr. Clary distributed the following pages: Parking Analysis and Programming Comparison . The Parking Analysis identified the number of employees for each tenant, the number of staff parking spaces, and the number of public parking spaces for each tenant. The Programming Comparison showed the existing square footage for each tenant and the proposed square footage. Existing square footage is 44,418 square feet and proposed is 51,418 square feet. Current common areas are 61,340 square feet and proposed are 63,042 square feet. Upon inquiry by Mr. Parisot, Mr. Clary stated the proposed square footage for the Tax Collector is 12,288. Mr. Boyles posed questions on the parking analysis. Mr. Clary replied the facility is within the city limits of Shalimar but the city's parking requirements are less stringent than the county's. He said this will result in "surplus" parking spaces . Mr. Clary continued his review of the drawings, pointing out the areas set aside for the County Attorney and County Administrator. He spoke about growth space and stated the Board Meeting Room is much larger and has flex space built in. Mr. Parisot asked why the Property Appraiser's and Tax Collector's Offices have private bathrooms. Mr. Clary answered they felt their staff needed to be closer to the office because of their interaction with the public. Mr. Parisot responded, March 4, 2014 - 15 - Minute Book 70, Page 277 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 88 "Yes, but the Tax Collector wants six bathrooms and the Tax Collector wants a private one in his office." Mr. Clary said that was the charge received from the working group. Mr. Amunds stated he is the Board's liaison to the working group. He explained the Tax Collector has more ladies in his office than men and that was the reasoning for the bathrooms. Mr. Harris remarked both of these offices, Tax Collector and Property Appra i ser, have a greater volume of public activities than other offices. Mr. Parisot said he does not think the taxpayers should pay for any private bathrooms. Mr. Amunds explained they tried to keep everything consistent with no big offices and getting as much sign - on by the Constitutional Officers as possible. Mr. Amunds asked when a cost estimate will be available. Mr. Steve Christopher, Lord & Son Construction, explained that while Mr. Clary and DAG were working on the drawings, Lord & Son has been working on numbers. He stated they are within 2% of where they were two years ago on this project, saying they are at $10,750,000 for the building and another $750,000 for the site work. Mr. Christopher advised the asbestos survey revealed asbestos was in the drywall joints in the entire facility. This means the drywall must be separated during demolition and taken to a specified dumpster. Mr. Parisot asked if this is new information from what he heard yesterday. Mr. Turner said there are statutory regulations to be followed, noting certain actions are required if the threshold is 1%. He stated no action is required below 1%. Mr. Turner said he did not have this information on the materials in the building yesterday when they spoke. Mr. Parisot stated he might be wrong but he heard it was less than 1%. Mr. Clary referred to the layout of the Board Chambers, saying the room could hold 100 people and will have a specific area set aside for staff and the media. Mr. Windes referred to Mr. Clary's reference of the drawings having 1,500 feet set aside for growth. He asked if that square footage could be left as white space. Mr. Clary answered in the affirmative. March 4, 2014 - 16 - Minute Book 70, Page 278 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 89 Mr. Boyles said he thinks the plan on the conceptual level looks good and approval of the drawings is an issue separate from a costs issue. He added that he is anxious for the Crestview Courthouse project to move forward. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to move forward with the plan as proposed and to proceed with the next phase of the process. Mr. Harris remarked he would like to keep the costs under $10 Million. Mr. Parisot stated that he cannot support moving the county commissioners out of a county- owned building (reference is Water & Sewer Administration Building) and then leasing that space commercially. He said he cannot go for a building of the size presented today. Mr. Harris responded the county does not own the Water & Sewer Administration Building. He said it was constructed with enterprise funds. Mr. Parisot replied he does not believe that. Mr. Windes said we are trying to create a governmental center for the next forty years. The vote was taken on the motion to approve the 35% drawings and authorize the design team to begin developing the construction drawings-4 yeas, 1 nay (Mr. Parisot voted no). FACILITIES MAINTENANCE - UPDATE ON COSTS FOR DESIGN ASSISTANCE ON CRESTVIEW COURTHOUSE PROJECT Mr. Turner reported the work of the design assistant for the Crestview Courthouse Project has completed his work. He said $32,000 was originally appropriated for this work but the final costs will be less than $16,200. PUBLIC COMMENTARY Mr. Wendell Batey, Brittany Lane, spoke about "Operation American Spring," a grass roots movement organized by Colonel Harry Riley, U.S. Army retired. The movement is to restore Constitutional Government. The event is slated for May 16 and the rally in Washington D.C. is anticipated to have participation by 10 million Americans. Mr. Batey asked the county and community for not only participants in the march but for their prayers. He referred interested persons to the following website: www . OperationAmericanSpri n g .

Mr. Kennedy stated Red Cross is a conduit for community helping community. He outlined the four-county area the local Red Cross chapter covers. Mr. Kennedy thanked the Board for its support. PUBLIC COMMENTS RELATING TO THE AGENDA Mrs. Rebecca Sherry, Okaloosa Island, stated she has noticed for the last several months that Tourist Development Department (TDD) financial items have been approved by the Board of County Commissioners but were not on the Tourist Development Council (TDC) agenda or discussed at a TDC meeting. She said this trend away from "sunshine" less than three months after the Auditor General's findings unsettling. Mrs. Sherry said there are two items on today's agenda which fit this bill. The first is a TDD i tern regarding cancellation of the Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) special assessment for the Western Destin Beach Restoration Project. She stated March 18, 2014 -2- Minute Book 70, Page 283 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 94 this i tern is on the Board's agenda but it bypassed the TDC. Mrs. Sherry referred to $700,000 which would then be taken from the tourist development tax to fulfill the obligation of the bank note for the Holiday Isle beach restoration project. She asked why this item is being fast-tracked and then said the recommendation on how to proceed was by unnamed staff. The second item is a $15,000 expenditure request for a Pocket Ranger advertising app which was not "noticed" at TDC. Mrs. Sherry asked why the big ticket items are bypassing TDC and who made these decisions. Mr. David Sherry, Okaloosa Island, said he read where the Board will consider repeal of the Western Destin MSBU assessment. He stated for years people from Holiday Isle demanded imposition of the assessment, as well as including people within the MSBU boundaries who did not want to be part of it. Mr. Sherry said he cannot recall anyone from Holiday Isle asking for the MSBU to be abolished. He read from the agenda request "Staff has been asked to research the feasibility of repealing the special assessment which has been levied for the Western Destin Beach Restoration Project." Mr. Sherry asked a series of questions, including: Who asked staff to do this work? Has anyone on Holiday Isle changed their mind and reneged? And, who on Holiday Isle is pushing to remove the assessment? He said if no one on Holiday Isle is asking, why is there a proposal to give away $750,000 in public money? Mr. Sherry felt if someone from Holiday Isle is asking for the assessment to be cancelled, then he should get up in public and tell why he wants it repealed. He noted there is no one here from Holiday Isle asking for this. Mr. Sherry concluded by asking why the TDC process was bypassed. PUBLIC HEARING DISCUSSION ON PROPOSAL FOR COUNTY CREWS TO CONSTRUCT NEWCASTLE AREA WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Stanford read the public notice for discussion relating to a proposal by Okaloosa County Water & Sewer (OCWS) to construct the Newcastle Area Water System Improvements with in-house staff and equipment. The estimated cost of the design-build project using OCWS staff is $450,000. Mr. Jeff Littrell, Water & Sewer System Director, pointed out the area on a map for the proposed project. The project will upgrade existing water lines from two inches to six inches which will facilitate the installation of new fire hydrants, increasing fire protection in the area. He detailed the improvements: 14 new fire hydrants; 10, 500 linear feet of six- March 18, 2014 -3- Minute Book 70, Page 284 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 95 inch water main (including eight - inch bores where necessary) ; 2,300 linear feet of existing parallel mains where services need to be switched over from the old mains, and all associated appurtenances. Mr. Littrell reported funding for this project will be supplemented by a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Recovery Fund appropriation in the amount of $252,923.30 available through the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. This grant is scheduled to expire on October 25, 2014. He advised that the remainder of the funds will come from the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Plan. Upon inquiry by Mr. Pari sot, Mr. Littrell stated they plan to do bores rather than road cuts to lay lines. No one came forward to comment on the proposal. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to authorize OCWS to construct the Newcastle Area Water System Improvement Project, using OCWS staff and equipment, as supplemented and in accordance with county ordinances and State Statutes. 5 yeas.

GROWTH MANAGEMENT - FINAL PLAT APPROVAL FOR BROWNSTONES PHASE I AT KELLY PLANTATION Mr. Elliot Kampert, Growth Management Director, presented the Final Plat for Brownstones Phase I at Kelly Plantat i on for consideration. The Brownstones Phase I is a four - lot single - family attached (townhomes) residential subdivision submitted by Matt Zinke with Gustin, Cothern & Tucker on behalf of property owner KPH3, LLC. A general location of the property is north of Kelly Plantation Drive, west of One Water Place Condominium in Destin. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Amunds, to grant final plat approval for the Brownstones Phase I. 5 yeas. GROWTH MANAGEMENT TRANSIT ASSISTANCE REQUEST LETTERS TO MUNICIPALITIES Mr. Kampert stated the Board will soon begin developing the Fiscal Year 2015 budget and will need to know to what extent the cities will participate in the public transit system. He asked for approval of the draft letters to be sent to the mayors of each municipality in this regard. Mr. Kampert noted there has been much discussion at the staff level between the county's and the cities' personnel. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to authorize the Chairman to execute the letters to the mayors of the municipalit i es. 5 yeas. March 18, 2014 -7- Minute Book 70, Page 288 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 99 TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - REVISED STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN Mr. Ed Schroeder, Tourist Development Department (TDD) Director, stated any changes to the Strategic Marketing Plan must be presented to the Board for approval in the form of a resolution . He explained the Board approved a $2.6 Million Strategic Marketing Plan in November 2013; however, the department's adopted budget for promotional activities totals $3.5 Million. He said the $900,000 difference is attributable to $534,000 in marketing activities performed in - house by TDD staff and $375,000 in special event and sponsorship funding. Mr. Schroeder said in the existing $2.6 Million plan, they are going to re-allocate some marketing funds which could be better used in leisure marketing events. Secondly, there is a proposal to create an In-House Marketing Commission. And, he said the third item concerns special event sponsorship funding. Mr. Schroeder spoke briefly about a category identified as "last minute deals." Mr. Parisot commented he has been in favor of the in-house marketing/advertising concept for a long time. It was his belief it could be done in - house at a lower cost than what the consultants charge. Mr. Pari sot referred to the section on entertainment expenses/meals for meetings and urged caution, suggesting it be limited to the current per diem and meal allocations. Mr. Schroeder responded that he totally agrees. Mr. Boyles stated he appreciates Mr. Schroeder "walking the halls" to discuss this item before the meeting but he is struggling to get a level of comfort and confidence regarding the use of TDC funds. He said it is difficult to grasp and it is important for the Tourist Development Council (TDC) to review. Upon inquiry by Mr. Boyles, Mr. Schroeder verified the TDC has reviewed and recommended approval of the in-house marketing plan at the proposed expenditure levels. Mr. Boyles said he understands the Film Commission is a one - person operation and he would like to learn more about this process. He requested the contractor (Ms. Gail Morgan) come to a meeting to introduce herself, talk about the successes and the weaknesses, and help him and the public understand what she does for $67,000 a year. Mr. Schroeder welcomed that opportunity. March 18, 2014 - 8- Minute Book 7 0, Page 289 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 100 Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to adopt a resolution for the revised Strategic Marketing Plan. 5 yeas. RESOLUTION NO. 14 - 69 TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - PETER MAYER ADVERTISING TASK ORDER NO. 132 Mr. Schroeder presented Peter Mayer Advertising Task Order No. 132 in the amount of $107, 114 for consideration. This task order is for the production and execution of two new 30 - second and two new 15 - second television spots. He stated the TDC recommended approval of this task order for the "Brand Campaign Television Spots" at its February 27, 2014 meeting. Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. Schroeder told how verification will be done on running the television spots. He added that a Destin Fishing Rodeo spot will be added to the rotation. Mr. Amunds made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to approve Task Order #132 with Peter Mayer Advertising. 5 yeas. TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - FY 2013 FOURTH QUARTER EXPENDITURE REPORT Mr. Schroeder termed this agenda item and the next one to be of a housekeeping nature. He said last October the Fiscal Year 2013 fourth quarter expenditure report for tourist development taxes should have been presented to the Board but was not, perhaps, because of the change in TDD leadership. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Pari sot, to approve this report. 5 yeas. TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - TOURIST DEVELOPMENT TAX FINANCIAL UPDATE Mr. Schroeder presented the financial update for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2013 - 14. He pointed out the new format of the report was discussed by the TDC and the report was approved on February 27, 2014. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Pari sot, to approve the report. Mr. Pari sot stated he would like for the Urban Corridor Grant to be moved to the Growth Management Department in the future. Mr. Windes remarked the Board can review that suggestion. 5 yeas. TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - REALLOCATION OF FIRST PERCENTAGE RESERVES Mr. Schroeder stated the Western Destin Beach Restoration Project was not budgeted in Fiscal Year 2014 and the Fiscal Year 2013 available balance of $562,103 was carried forward. He March 18, 2014 -9 - Minute Book 70, Page 290 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 101 asked for these remaining funds to be transferred from the 1175 - 59910 Reserves Account to the 1175 - 581702 Project Expenditures Account in order to complete the project. Mr. Schroeder stated the TDC approved this item at its February 27, 2014 meeting. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the department head's recommendation. 5 yeas. TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - POCKET RANGER APP Mr. Schroeder stated the department has been presented with an extraordinary opportunity. He explained the Emerald Coast can be showcased as the signature beach in the Pocket Ranger app for the State of Florida at an annual cost of $15,000. Mr. Schroeder said this marketing opportunity is not part of the original marketing plan but can be considered with the amendments passed earlier in the meeting. Mr. Amunds posed questions about advance payments, referring to the Auditor General's Report. It was his understanding a discounted payment could be made in advance, noting payment would not be made until the app was up and live. Mr. Schroeder replied he is not sure if that applies to this type of advertising. Mr. Harris pointed out Mr. Schroeder was not here when the Auditor General's Office dinged us and said we must pay after the fact. Mr. Boyles commented that a discounted rate is not the issue for him but he would like to come to grips with the process. He said an "unanticipated activity" does not mean we bypass the TDC. Mr. Boyles stated he regrets this is a time-sensitive item, reiterating that he is not comfortable with signing off on this item without review and comment from the TDC. Mr. Schroeder said the revised Strategic Marketing Plan places a limit on expenditures of $35,000 or less. He commented that he and the County Administrator would approve any of these type expenditures ("last minute deals"). Mr. Schroeder stated anything above the $35,000 limit would go before the TDC first. He advised expenditures falling in this category would be referred to the TDC at the following meeting. Mr. Boyles asked what will happen if the TDC does not recommend approval at that time. Mr. Schroeder said they will present it to the TDC Chairman before he and Mr. Padgett sign off on it. He added if the TDC thinks it is a bad idea, they probably would not go forward with it. March 18, 2014 - 10 - Minute Book 70, Page 291 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 102 Mr. Parisot said it is basically an advertising package which would cost $40,000 and we could get it for $15,000. He also commented provision was made for this type situation in the revised marketing plan. Mr. Pari sot asked if the TDC reviews every line item of the marketing plan or approves it as a large package. Mr. Schroeder replied it is presented in detail and approved as a package. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Amunds, to approve participation in the Florida State Parks Pocket Ranger app. 4 yeas, 1 nay. (Mr. Boyles voted no.) TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - ADVERTISE PUBLIC HEARING TO REPEAL BEACH RESTORATION MSBU Mr. Schroeder requested approval to advertise for a public hearing to repeal the Beach Restoration Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) . He said staff has worked with First Southwest (financial consultant) and the legal team to determine the willingness of Hancock Bank to release the pledge of the special assessment. (The MSBU assessments and first penny of the Tourist Development Tax were pledged for the repayment of the bank note.) Mr. Schroeder advised a letter has been received from Hancock Bank relinquishing its rights to the pledge of the "Special Assessment Revenues." He asked for authorization for staff to advertise for public hearing to repeal Ordinance No. 07 - 57 which established this MSBU. Mr. Amunds stated this has been a heated issue for a long time. He noted the Board previously discussed sunsetting the assessment before the requisite eight years, if possible. Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. Dowd confirmed this to be true. Mr. Harris asked who directed staff to research this item. Mr. Schroeder replied "a county commissioner." Mr. Boyles pointed out that was in an open meeting. Mr. Harris asked if the residents of Holiday Isle have been notified of this proposal. Mr. Schroeder answered that he has not notified them. Mr. Dowd said the hearing will be advertised. Mr. Windes stated when he ran for the office of county commissioner one of the planks in his campaign was abolishing this assessment. Upon inquiry by Mr. Windes, Mr. Schroeder said the proposal will be taken before the TDC on March 27. Mr. Parisot commented he brought up this proposal previously and it was decided last fall to bring the issue back up in the spring. He said although he was not a commissioner at the time March 18, 2014 - 11 - Minute Book 70, Page 292 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 103 the ordinance was adopted, he recalls the discussion was to first use state funds; secondly, to use bed tax dollars; and lastly, to use the MSBU assessment revenues. Mr. Pari sot said he supports this measure but there are other issues to be discussed. He stated in January 2012 the Board rescinded the assessment for Okaloosa Island and refunded monies. Mr. Parisot said he feels the Board should address the issue of refunding all or a portion of the MSBU funds. He then gave a history of the MSBU boundaries. Mr. Amunds referred to his conversation with the condo alliance when he originally brought this item forward for discussion. He said he supports stopping the assessment but not a big push to give the money back. Mr. Boyles asked how this concept is different from the MSBU policy for paving private roads the county recently adopted. He said citizens must pitch in. Mr. Amunds said he believes eventually bed taxes could be set aside strictly for beach restoration. He also believed the federal government will allocate money for dredging the East Pass. Mr. Amunds noted when the discussion took place for beach restoration, the county had gone through a hurricane and implementing the MSBU for beach restoration was the only way to go. He reiterated his desire to sunset the assessment. Mr. Parisot stated a full penny of tourist development tax was carved out for beach restoration at the same time the MSBU was established. He said the MSBU was set up because there was no funding source for the bonds. Mr. Boyles stated this information is helpful and asked if there is a way to continue with the dedication of that penny for beach restoration, to accrue those revenues into a reserve account so we don't have to scramble quickly if there is an extreme weather event. Mr. Schroeder replied there is no limitation, advising there is currently $6.2 Million in this reserve. He said he has been reminded by Jim Trifilio, Coastal Management Coordinator, the cost to restore Okaloosa Island beaches was $12 Million. Mr. Boyles asked what is the average assessment for a condo unit owner. Mr. Amunds replied that he believes it is about $130 annually. Mr. Boyles repeated the cost for living on the beach is $130 a year. Mr. Amunds made motion, seconded by Mr. Pari sot, to authorize staff to move forward with drafting an ordinance to abolish the March 18, 2014 - 12 - Minute Book 70, Page 293 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 104 Beach Restoration MSBU and to authorize advertising same for public hearing. 4 yeas, 1 nay. (Mr. Boyles voted no.) PUBLIC SAFETY - E 9 - 1 - 1 EQUIPMENT HARDWARE REFRESH AND UPGRADES Mr. Dino Villani, Public Safety Director, requested approval to purchase E 9 - 1 - 1 hardware equipment and software upgrades for the Public Safety Answering Points. The cost of the purchase is $615,116.48 and would be paid with E 9 - 1 - 1 Reserve funds. This is a sole source purchase due to the fact Century Link currently holds the E 9-1 - 1 maintenance contract and is the only vendor who could meet required repair times in instances of critical outages or failures. Mr. Pari sot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to approve the purchase as outlined by the department head . 5 yeas. AIRPORTS AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE RFQ FOR AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE SERVICES Mr. Sunil Harman, Airports Director, requested approval to advertise for Request for Proposals (RFP) to provide aircraft maintenance services at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport. He also requested the following individuals be appointed to the review commit tee: Tracy Stage, Airport Deputy Director; Terry Mace, Airports Maintenance Foreman; David Miner, Airports Properties and Leases; and Jack Allen, Purchasing Services Manager. Mr. Boyles stated recently he has sat on some review committees and found that having individuals from outside the affected department provides a different, beneficial perspective. He suggested this be considered for formation of future committees. Upon inquiry by Mr. Pari sot, Mr. Harman stated currently the work was being done by an entity the airlines worked with but that company has left. Mr. Parisot commented that he will be glad to sit on this selection committee. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot to authorize the department to advertise the RFP for aircraft maintenance services and to appoint the review committee as outlined above, adding Commissioner Parisot to the review committee. 5 yeas. March 18, 2014 - 13 - Minute Book 7 0, Page 294 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 105 PUBLIC WORKS - SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT REQUESTED FOR SEADOO BOATING SAFETY EVENT Mr. John Hofstad, Public Works Director, stated WaterTop Unlimited is requesting use of a county beach area adjacent to Ross Marler Park for a SeaDoo boating safety event. The event is to be held May 2 through 4, 2014 with an anticipated attendance of 40 to 50 people per day. He advised the request has been reviewed by the appropriate agencies and found to be in compliance. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Arnunds, to approve the special event permit as presented. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS FWC 2014 - 15 ARTIFICIAL REEF CONSTRUCTION GRANT APPLICATION Mr. Hofstad requested approval for the Chairman to execute the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) 2014-15 Artificial Reef Construction Grant application. The grant would be used to deploy donated materials to populate four reefs in state waters. He reported the county has received permits from the state and the Corps of Engineers. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to authorize the Chairman to execute this grant application. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - CONTRACT RENEWAL AND AMENDMENT WITH DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS FOR INMATE WORK CREW SUPERVISOR Mr. Hofstad stated this is a contract renewal (and amendment #1) with the Department of Corrections to provide an officer to supervise an inmate work crew for the next year. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to approve the document and to authorize the Chairman to execute same. 5 yeas. INFORMATION SYSTEMS - FIBER OPTIC PRESENTATION Mr. Don Vanderhoek, Information Systems Director, and Mr. Dan Sarnbenedetto, Manager of the Geographic Information System (GIS) Division, carne forward to give the Board an overview of the Fiber Optic Telecommunications Project. Mr. Vanderhoek provided historic information on the implementation of the fiber optic network in 2001, telling not only why the county created the network but describing its strategic components and outlining how the county continues to leverage, maintain and sustain the network. March 18, 2014 -14- Minute Book 70, Page 295 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 106 Mr. Vanderhoek stated the necessity to increase bandwidth for increasing telephone and data communication needs was the impetus for the Fiber Optic Network. The county, by statutory and constitutional requirements, must pay for communications for court-related entities. He said the Fiber Optic Network was a strategic investment to save money, increase the level of service, and meet future needs. Mr. Vanderhoek's presentation explained bandwidths and the savings realized on telephone and data services. He stated this Fiber Optic Network is a county-owned and operated utility. Mr. Vanderhoek provided a map showing the existing and planned fiber routes. He detailed operation of the North and South Head End Facilities and how data traffic is beamed across the backbone fiber to its destination. Mr. Sambenedetto described how the Fiber Optic Network is maintained, stressing the importance of protecting and maintaining this utility. He said because the fiber is in the right - of -way, utility locates are a big part of what they do. Mr. Sambenedetto stated the GIS staff provides positive response on every Sunshine One Call ticket. Highly accurate network maps are maintained which is critical to accurately and timely utility locates, save time in network re - routing if required due to outage, and assists in plan review and design. Mr. Sambenedetto reviewed the importance of accurate splice diagrams when the fiber is damaged. He also cited examples of repair costs when the fiber is pinched or cut by contractors during ro~d construction. Continuing, Mr. Sambenedetto listed benefits from the investment in the Fiber Optic Network: • Significant cost savings on reoccurring data and communication charges • Dramatically increased bandwidths at a much lower cost • Brought on Constitutional Officers and others to help reduce BCC costs • Brought on partners to help offset the infrastructure and maintenance costs • Allows room to expand by utilizing additional fiber available on existing routes He also named potential partners, as well as providing an extensive list of current fiber optic - related projects. March 18, 2014 -15 - Minute Book 70, Page 296 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 107 RECESS - The meeting was recessed at 10:33 a.m. and reconvened at 10:45 a.m. Mr. Vanderhoek spoke about extending the utility to various education entities and outlined what the School Board's requirements will be for the co,ming years. He noted they have a rough implementation plan they would like to present to the School Board. The commissioners voiced support for IS to discuss a potential partnership with the Okaloosa County School Board. HUMAN RESOURCES - REQUEST TO ADD MARKETING MANAGER POSITION FOR TOURIST DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Mrs. Kay Godwin, Human Resources (HR) Director, presented for consideration a request to add a Marketing Manager position in the Tourist Development Department (TDD) . The position will work with the TDD Director and staff to set strategic direction and manage the TDD's advertising, marketing, social media, website, and public relations initiatives. Currently, those duties are being performed by an individual employed through a temporary hire agency who will be leaving the assignment in the next several weeks.

OLD BUSINESS - SHERIFF'S TEEN DRIVER'S CHALLENGE BUDGET Major J.D. Peacock stated in October 2013 the budget for the Teen Driver's Challenge was first brought to the Board. It is funded by an additional assessment on traffic citations. He reported the Sheriff's Office has worked through the regulations on how this program is to be carried out. Major Peacock said Sergeant Mark Raiche will present a short update on the program. March 18, 2014 - 16 - Minute Book 70, Page 297 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Packet Pg. 108 Sergeant Raiche reported teen drivers between the ages of 15 and 19 are three times more likely to be involved in a crash. The fatality rate for teens is high and the potential for crashes increases dramatically when the driver is distracted. The first teen driver challenge program began in May 2011 and since that time there have been 337 teens to receive training in the program. Sergeant Raiche stated this is a one-on-one training program, pointing out there are 49 deputies certified as instructors. He announced the Okaloosa County program has been recognized and recommended as a training program for other entities initiating this program. Sergeant Raiche said 31 deputies from other counties have been trained as instructors by Okaloosa County. He briefly spoke about the mobile unit, an interactive simulator and videos for YouTube and other social media. Upon inquiry by Mr. Pari sot, Major Peacock stated the program offered in the public school system is a basic curriculum on the rules of the road and the Teen Driver Challenge administered by the Sheriff's Office is an advanced class in a real world scenario.

EXECUTIVE SESSION - PROPOSED SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT Mr. Greg Stewart, Special Counsel with Nabor, Giblin & Nickerson, stated an Executive Session was held this morning to discuss a proposed settlement with regard to the Sandman LLC vs Don Am unds , et al litigation. He advised the proposed settlement agreement is subject to court ratification and giving a long - term contract for beach cleaning to Sandman which will then dismiss the case with prejudice. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to approve the settlement agreement as proposed by the plaintiff. Mr. Parisot stated he will vote against the motion because it violates the Purchasing Policy. He said the last action of the Board in October was to reject all bids and to re - bid. Mr. Harris remarked that he is torn between what Mr. Parisot has said and feeling strongly that we should bite the bullet and move on. Mr. Amunds said he cannot support the action at this time and referred to the county policy. He said if the Board wants to make modifications to the policy, he would consider the settlement at that point. The vote was taken- 2 yeas, 3 nays. (Mr. Parisot, Mr. Amunds, and Mr. Windes voted no. ) Motion fails for lack of a majority vote. Mr. Stewart referred to the Boards action taken on February 18, 2014, and asked for clarification on that motion. He asked if the intent of the motion was to allow legal counsel to resolve the issue with Sandman in conformity with policy. Mr. Pari sot replied that was his understanding and made motion, seconded by Mr. Amunds, that to the extent there is any ambiguity of the motion of February 18, 2014, the intent relating to this settlement is for the counsel for the county to work with Sandman's counsel in conformity with policy. Mr. Boyles pointed out he was the mover of that motion and it is his belief the motion of that meeting is captioned and contained in the proposed settlement agreement. The vote was taken- 3 yeas, 2 nays. (Mr. Boyles and Mr. Harris voted no.)

BACKGROUND: The original contract does not include a Motor Vehicle Release and Indemnification Form for temporary employees, assigned by Kelly Services, to operate County owned motor vehicles. The amendment will enable temporary employees, assigned by Kelly Services, to operate a County motor vehicle during the course of their assignment if needed. Also included is an updated rate sheet. The changes include: 1) reduction in the cost for Criminal County Felony & Misdemeanor checks from $9.11 to $6.96; 2) addition of the cost associated with running driving record history checks as a result of the included contract modification and as required by County policy; and 3) adding language to allow for the payment of the varying administrative fees associated with running Criminal County Felony & Misdemeanor checks. The current contract states that the administrative fee associated with the Criminal County Felony & Misdemeanor checks will vary from county to county. With over 3,000 counties nationwide, it is practically impossible to determine the administrative fee associated with each and provide that documentation for approval. Under the current contract, the Clerk of Court will not pay for these administrative fees because they are not specifically listed within the contract language. The updated language is intended to request approval to pay the varying administrative fees incurred by Kelly Services that are then passed on to the County. These administrative fees for Criminal County Felony & Misdemeanor checks are not to exceed $25.00 per name and per county. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff is requesting Board authorization to amend the Kelly Services contract by adding the motor vehicle driver release and indemnification and the revised schedule of rates to the current Kelley Services contract. Staff is also requesting Board approval to pay the varying administrative fees incurred by Kelly Services to complete Criminal County Felony & Misdemeanor checks in an amount not to exceed $25.00 per name and per county, in addition to the costs to run driving record history checks, drug screens and sex offender registry checks.

Invoice #5376 in the amount of $10,423.00. BACKGROUND: Gator Boring & Trenching, Inc. Task Order 2 on Contract C14-2094-WS was approved in the amount of $8,923.00 for directional boring. Before the task order was written, work efforts were coordinated between County departments for hand trenching within the fenced area of the work location. However, when the work was to commence the planned labor force was not available. With limited Information Systems staff and lack of other resources, and in order to stay on time with this fiber optic project, the work proceeded with Gator Boring digging the trench by hand, which resulted in the invoice exceeding the task order amount of $8,923.00 by $1,500.00. It should be noted that this was not an emergency purchase and, therefore, the Purchasing Policy guidelines for such a purchase were not applicable.

BACKGROUND: The amendment adds minor language to specify a "deliverable" and to include a project invoice to receive the grant. This change is due to new requirements by the federal government. State Aid to Libraries grants come from federal LSTA funds provided to the State. The "deliverable" is that the Cooperative has at least one library location open a minimum of 40 hours per week. Every library in the Cooperative is open more than 40 hours per week. This was already documented to the State in the OCPLC annual report of December 2013 that the State Library considers "Part 2" of the State Aid application process. Commissioner Boyles, as chair of the OCPLC governing board, is the required official signature for the amendment. The Cooperative Coordinator is approved by the State Library as a signing official for the project invoice. The State Aid amount for FY 2013-2014 is $94,700. Due to the delay precipitated by requiring this amendment of every grant recipient, all funds will be provided in a single payment rather than two payments as has been done in the past. State Aid is a continuing state grant authorized by Chapter 257, Florida Statute. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Board review the amendment to the executed State Aid Library Grant agreement.

The major exceptions are the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program, which provides assistance for bridges on and off the federal-aid highways, highway safety activities, bicycle and pedestrian projects, transportation enhancement activities, the recreational trails program, and planning, research, development, and technology transfer. Proposed projects meeting these and other planning, design, environmental, safety, etc., requirements can be approved on the basis of state and local priorities within the limit of the funds apportioned or allocated to each state. Allowable Costs: Eligible activities and allowable costs will be determined in accordance with Title 23 and Title 49 C.F.R. and the OMB cost principles applicable to the recipient/sub-recipient. Eligibility: By law, the federal-aid highway program is a federally assisted state program that requires each state to have a suitably equipped and organized transportation department. Therefore, most projects are administered by or through State Departments of Transportation (State DOTs). Projects to be funded under the federal-aid highway program are generally selected by state DOTs or Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), in cooperation with appropriate local officials, as specified in 23 U.S.C. and implementing regulations. Territorial highway projects are funded in the same manner as other federal-aid highway projects, with the territorial transportation agency functioning in a manner similar to a state DOT. Most Florida Land Highway Program (FLHP) projects are administered by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Federal Lands Highway and its Divisions or by the various Florida Land Management Agencies (FLMAs). Under the FLHP, projects in the Indian Reservation Road (IRR) Program are selected by Tribal Governments and are approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the FHWA. Due to recent legislation, Tribal Governments meeting certain requirements may now administer various IRR projects on behalf of the BIA and FHWA. The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Park Service (NPS) select projects in the Refuge Road and Park Roads and Parkways Programs, respectively. For the Forest Highway Program, the Forest Service, the States and the FHWA jointly select projects. Compliance Requirements Applicable to the Federal Resources Awarded Pursuant to This Agreement Are As Follows: The recipient of Local Agency Program (LAP) funding must comply with the statutory requirements in Sections 112.061, 215.422, 339.12, and 339.135, Florida Statutes, and Title 23 and Title 49, C.F.R.

STANFORD DEPUTY CLERK Packet Pg. 246 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: April 15, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Ed Schroeder SUBJECT: Visitors Guide RFQ & Review Committee DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department BCC DISTRICT: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval to issue a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the design and production of the 2014-2015 Visitors Guide and appoint the following members of the review committee: Tourist Development Department Director, Research and Development Manager, Marketing Manager, and a member of the Tourist Development Council (or a member of the Board of County Commissioners if so desired). The Purchasing Department will coordinate the process and serve as a facilitator for meetings of the review committee. BACKGROUND: The Tourist Development Department’s ad agency issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for design and production of the 2014-2015 Visitors Guide in late 2013 that drew three responses. The way in which the RFP was issued may not have been in compliance with County policy controls. Staff would like to issue an RFQ for the design and production of the 2014-2015 Visitors Guide in accordance with the County’s purchasing policy. The TDD will issue a letter to current advertisers informing them the process has been delayed, and they may plan to participate with ad pricing offered at a similar rate. The Tourist Development Council unanimously approved County Purchasing coordination of the 2014-2015 Visitors Guide at its February 27, 2014 meeting.

BACKGROUND: The Board approved the revised Ad Agency Strategic Marketing Plan on March 18, 2014, which included a category for Last Minute Deals in the amount of $18,813. To the greatest extent possible, such opportunities will be presented to the TDC for recommendation to the BCC for approval in advance. However, these funds are available for appropriation by the Tourist Development Director with concurrence of the TDC Chairman and County Administrator if a time-sensitive opportunity would be lost due to the timing of regular TDC and BCC meetings required to obtain advance approval. Total cost of the opportunity must be less than $35,000 and County Administrator approval is required regardless of dollar amount. Task Order 136 titled Last Minute Deals is for advertisement placements, specifically Visit Florida Meeting Magazine designed to target meeting planners and online keyword advertising designed to target leisure travelers nationally. These ads will run from April 2014 - June 2014. The deadline for the Visit Florida magazine is April 10. Although there is no specific deadline for the keyword ads, it is important to capitalize on the time period of when travelers are booking summer travel, which is now. The task order has been approved by the TDD Director, coordinated with the TDC Chairman, and approved by the County Administrator. RECOMMENDATION: For informational purposes only; no action required.

BACKGROUND: On April 21st 2009, the Tourist Development Council and the Emerald Coast Convention Center requested approval for the ceding of approximately 2.44 acres of land directly north of the Emerald Coast Convention Center of parcel # 00-2S-24-2185-0018 for the purpose of constructing a 150’ x 200’ hard surface area in order to accommodate the expansion of current events and the creation of additional event activities for the Convention Center. Subsequently all other approvals were obtained leading to the construction of the outdoor exhibit area which is to be completed on or about April 20th, 2014. The Tourist Development Department and the Emerald Coast Convention Center are requesting that a name be assigned to this area. The requested name assignment is "Bayview Plaza" at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. OPTIONS: Approve /Disapprove RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the name "Bayview Plaza" at the Emerald Coast Convention Center for the north outdoor exhibit area at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: Ernie Padgett, County Administrator Packet Pg. 259 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: April 15, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Jeff Littrell SUBJECT: REPI Phase 4 Agreement between OCWS and the Air Force DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer BCC DISTRICT: 1 STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Staff requests that the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approve and authorize the Chairman to execute the "Cooperative Agreement" between the County and the United States of America acting by and through the Secretary of the Air Force. This is a $200,000 Readiness and Environmental Protection Initiative (REPI) grant to go towards land acquisition of a Shoal River buffer, which benefits both the Air Force (Duke Field flight path) and Okaloosa County (watershed protection for future water supply). The Cooperative Agreement also consolidates this new REPI grant with three previous REPI agreements BACKGROUND: The attached agreement is indirectly related to future water supply planning for Okaloosa County. This agreement further formalizes the partnership between the County and Eglin AFB. Both entities have the same objective of being protective of the environment, specifically north of Duke Field and south of Interstate 10. Because of Duke Field’s flight path, Eglin would like to limit development in this area and create a natural buffer. Specifically, sound attenuation is an issue that would affect the public, and light pollution is an issue that would affect the various military missions at Duke Field. This buffer area is in the same vicinity that the Board and OCWS have been committed to utilizing for future water supply. We are currently at the land acquisition stage in order to secure land to be used for an offline reservoir, water treatment plant, wetlands mitigation, and associated infrastructure such as pipelines, pump stations, an intake structure, and the needed utilities. The REPI grant funds cannot be used for acquisition of land for the offline reservoir. Other grant funds will be used for the reservoir property. The benefit to the County is that the land acquired with these REPI funds can be used for expanded watershed protection for future water supply, as well as additional acreage for wetlands mitigation, access, and utilities. In August 2011, the BCC approved and executed the first Readiness and Environmental Protection Initiative (REPI) for $500,000. In January 2012, the BCC approved and executed another REPI Agreement for $200,000. In January 2013, the BCC approved and executed the third REPI Agreement for $200,000. The current agreement under consideration is for further Air Force REPI money in the amount of $200,000 to be used for a land purchase for buffering and environmental conservation in the same Shoal River vicinity as mentioned above (see Exhibit B). Okaloosa County’s “match” is another $200,000 Defense Infrastructure Grant (DIG), which has recently been awarded and is expected to go to BCC for approval in the next 1- 2 months. The three previous REPI agreements were each titled "Agreement for a Deed of Easement". The Packet Pg. 260 Air Force views these as individual purchase agreements; they now desire to consolidate and replace these three agreements into one new agreement, titled a "Cooperative Agreement". This Cooperative Agreement also makes another $200,000 of REPI funding available; the total of all REPI funding is now $1,100,000. The Agreement is attached, along with the County Contract Review Coordination Sheet and the following exhibits: Exhibit A - Legal Description Exhibit B - Map Exhibit C - Property Information Sheet (Proposed Acreage) Exhibit D - Existing Acreage Exhibit E - Property Information Sheet (Existing Acreage) Staff also requests that the BCC authorize the Chairman to execute subsequent Cooperative Agreement related documents and any future modifications related to this Agreement. For example, the Air Force has requested the County provide written permission for the Air Force to enter the property already owned by the County; a Restrictive Use Easement on this Existing Acreage will be utilized as the match for the first $500,000 REPI funding. This letter providing written permission, along with the County Contract Review Coordination Sheet, is attached for the Chairman's signature OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends BCC approval for the Chairman to execute the "Cooperative Agreement" with the Air Force. Staff also requests that the BCC authorize the Chairman to execute subsequent Cooperative Agreement related documents and any future modifications related to this Agreement.

In the event the Eligible Entity fails or refuses to deliver the Easement in accordance with this Agreement, the Air Force may resort to the remedy of specific performance if permitted by the State of Florida, or the Air Force may terminate this Agreement. In the event the Air Force fails or refuses to complete this transaction, the Eligible Entity may terminate this as its sole remedy upon written notice to the Air Force within five (5) business days of the failure or refusal. In the event of termination as set 1 Packet Pg. 262 forth in this section, the Eligible Entity shall return to the Air Force any of the unspent or not incurred portion of the grant funds identified in Section 101.d., less one-half of the Allowable Transaction Costs spent or incurred to date. f. The Eligible Entity shall not be obligated to perform under this Agreement if, through no act, omission or fault on its part, and notwithstanding its reasonable best efforts to obtain the same, governmental funding or private foundation grants that had been committed to it for the purchase of the Real Property Interest shall be withdrawn, frozen or otherwise not made available to the Eligible Entity to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Furthermore, the Eligible Entity’s obligations for acquiring and conveying the Easement pursuant to this Agreement are conditioned on ( i), the Eligible Entity obtaining all necessary internal approvals for the acquisition and disposition of interests in a particular parcel of real property, and (ii), the Eligible Entity being able to acquire the necessary Real Property Interests from the landowner.

Section 102. Authority. a. 10 U.S.C. § 2684a, as amended, authorizes the secretary of a military department to enter into agreements with a state or political subdivision of a state, or a private conservation organization (the “Eligible Entity”), to limit the use or development of real property in the vicinity of, or ecologically related to a military installation or military airspace, including, but not limited to, a training or testing range or Military Training Route (MTR). b. These agreements are intended to (a) limit development or use of the land that would be incompatible with the mission of the installation; or (b) preserve habitat on the land compatible with environmental requirements and which may eliminate or relieve environmental restrictions that could restrict, impede, or interfere with military training, testing, or operations on or near the Installation. c. Agreements under this authority must provide for the acquisition by the Eligible Entity (a) of all right, title, and interest in and to any real property (fee simple), or any lesser estate or interest in the land (e.g., conservation easement or restrictive use easement) (the Real Property Interest as defined herein) as may be appropriate, and (b) the sharing by the United States of Acquisition and Allowable Transaction Costs of acquiring any Real Property Interest, as may be agreed to by the Parties. d. The Eligible Entity is authorized by its Charter, Code of Ordinances, or State law to perform and discharge its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the acquisition and disposition of Real Property Interests, and to preserve and protect conservation values of the land acquired in perpetuity, and is a county as defined in Florida Statutes. ARTICLE II – OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES Section 201. General. a. The Air Force and the Eligible Entity agree to cooperate in limiting development that is incompatible with the mission of the Installation and to protect open space and agricultural uses around the Installation by acquiring Real Property Interests in certain lands located in the vicinity of the Installation or its military airspace, or those which are ecologically related to the installation, in Okaloosa County, Florida. This Agreement in no way restricts the Air Force or the Eligible Entity from 2 Packet Pg. 263 participating in similar activities with other public or private entities or persons. The parties acknowledge the Eligible Entity is planning on utilizing the Real Property Interests acquired for various activities which will not be incompatible with the mission of the Installation nor inconsistent with the protection of open space and agricultural uses. This Agreement shall in no way restrict the Eligible Entity from pursuing such uses of the Easement Area including, but not limited to, wetlands mitigation banking, construction and maintenance of all-weather two lane roads, and utility infrastructure, provided that such infrastructure shall not be incompatible nor interfere with the mission of the Installation. Any provision of this Agreement that would hinder or prevent the use of the Existing Acreage for the purposes of wetland mitigation banking shall be null and void. b. The Eligible Entity and the Air Force further agree the limitations placed on development or use of lands around the Installation will serve the interests of the Air Force and the Eligible Entity in a manner to eliminate or minimize encroachment upon, and provide a protective buffer zone for the Installation, its mission and operations. c. Unless otherwise agreed, the Eligible Entity shall convey all of its right, title and interest in and to any alleys, streets, ways, strips, or gores abutting or adjoining the land that constitutes the Real Property Interest to the Air Force, in the event the Real Property Interest is acquired by the Air Force pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. d. Unless otherwise provided by law, the Eligible Entity may transfer any portion of the fee interest acquired under this Agreement or a lesser interest therein to the United States at fair market value of the Eligible Entity share at the time of acquisition, subject to the Eligible Entity being able to pursue passive recreational uses of the Real Property Interest, including, but not limited to, construction and maintenance of all-weather two lane roads, utility infrastructure not incompatible nor inconsistent with the mission of the installation, and wetland mitigation banking. Any such transfer shall be limited to the minimum Real Property Interest necessary to ensure the property concerned is developed and used in a manner consistent with the purposes of 10 U.S.C. § 2684a, as amended. e. After recordation of the Deed or Easement document by the Eligible Entity, the Eligible Entity shall take responsibility for long-term monitoring of the Easement Area to verify compliance with the terms and conditions of the Easement, and to take any necessary enforcement action, as agreed to in Section 716 hereof. The Air Force will have the right to enforce the terms of the Easement when appropriate. Section 202. Obligations of the Eligible Entity. a. The Eligible Entity agrees to exercise its best efforts to supervise, manage, and operate the Real Property Interest(s) acquired within the scope of this Agreement according to sound, efficient, commercial practice, and the terms, conditions, and specifications of this Agreement. b. The Eligible Entity agrees to pay its share of the costs for the acquisition of Real Property Interests in the manner set forth in Section 101 d., and to contribute funds sufficient to pay related Allowable Transaction Costs as defined in Section 602 of this Agreement. c. The Eligible Entity shall not be obligated to perform under this Agreement if, through no act, omission or fault on its part, and notwithstanding its reasonable best efforts to obtain the same, governmental funding or private foundation grants committed to it for the purchase of any Real Property Interest are withdrawn, frozen, or otherwise made unavailable to the Eligible Entity to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 3 Packet Pg. 264 Section 203. Obligations of the Air Force. a. The Air Force agrees to contribute sufficient funds to pay its share of Acquisition and Allowable Transaction Costs incurred in performance of this Agreement according to the terms and conditions for payment under Article V. b. Whenever the terms of this Agreement require the coordination, concurrence, or approval by the Air Force, it will not be unreasonably withheld. Any request by the Eligible Entity for action by the Air Force shall be considered and acted upon in a timely fashion. c. The obligations of the Air Force are subject to the availability of Federal funds for purposes of this Agreement. No provision in this Agreement should be interpreted to require obligation or payment of funds by the Air Force in violation of the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 U.S.C. § 1341, or other applicable Federal law. Additionally, the performance of the Air Force under this Agreement is contingent upon its being allocated funds by the Department of Defense under its Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) Program. Section 204. Acquisition Process. a. The Eligible Entity and the Air Force acknowledge the location and suitability of the Existing Acreage and agree to establish procedures and criteria for the identification of land that will be the object of the acquisition of a Real Property Interest in the Proposed Acreage by the Eligible Entity. b. Acquisition of a Real Property Interest in land by the Eligible Entity may only be accomplished with the voluntary consent of the landowner. c. Title to the Proposed Acreage acquired first by the Eligible Entity for conveyance of the Easement to the Air Force shall comply with the United States Department of Justice Title Standards and must be acceptable to the Air Force. d. The Eligible Entity will ensure the immediate recording in the county land records of any Real Estate Interest acquired by it. The Air Force will be responsible for the cost of recording any deed of conveyance or deed of easement subsequently assigned to it by the Eligible Entity. The Eligible Entity will obtain a derivation of title clause ((i.e., refer to the deed(s) to the grantor(s) or other source of grantor’s title, by book, page, and place of record)) wherever customary or required by statute. e. The Parties shall provide land surveys, environmental surveys, documents obtained from the applicable county real estate records, title insurance reports or commitments, and other documentation either Party may find necessary to fulfill the purpose of this Agreement. f. The amount of the contribution of the Air Force toward a specific Real Property Interest acquisition will be negotiated by the Parties; however, by Federal statute, the contribution by the Air Force cannot exceed the appraised fair market value of the Real Property Interest acquired by the Eligible Entity, exclusive of the Allowable Transactional Costs. g. The Air Force and the Eligible Entity agree to share equally the Allowable Transactional Costs in support of these acquisitions, such as, by way of example and not of limitation, appraisal reports, land surveys, escrow agent fees and expenses, real estate agent fees, environmental assessments, title insurance, and recording fees, as agreed by the Parties. h. Each Party agrees to bear its own labor cost in implementing this Agreement. In the event a landowner of the parcel(s) identified on Exhibit A and depicted in Exhibit B refuses to accept the final offer of the Eligible Entity, the Air Force will still share in the related Allowable Transaction Costs. 4 Packet Pg. 265 Section 205. Real Estate Appraisal Reports. a. All Real Property Interests acquired by the Eligible Entity shall be supported by an appraisal report. The Air Force and the Eligible Entity agree to establish procedures and criteria for obtaining an appraisal report and the equal sharing of costs associated with it, as agreed by the Parties. An appraisal report will serve as the basis for determining the share of the Real Property Interest being funded by the Air Force. b. For purposes of the acceptance of property or interests under this Agreement, the Air Force may accept an appraisal or title documents prepared or adopted by a non-Federal entity as satisfying the applicable requirements of section 301 of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C. § 4651) and 40 U.S.C. § 3111 if the Air Force determines the appraisal or title documents substantially comply with the requirements. c. Appraisals supporting acquisition of a real estate interest shall also meet the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (the “Yellow Book”). Should the cost of obtaining a Yellow Book appraisal exceed the cost of a standard appraisal, the Air Force agrees to pay the incremental increase. The date of the Appraisal must be less than 12 months from the date of Fee or Easement closing. Section 206. Land Surveys. The Air Force and the Eligible Entity agree to establish procedures and criteria for the survey of the parcels and payment of associated expenses. The survey shall determine the exact acreage and location of the parcels and identify and locate all existing encroachments, easements, and any other encumbrances affecting the parcels. The survey shall be sufficient to enable title insurers to delete all standard boundary exceptions to coverage under the title policy relating to surveys. Section 207. Title Insurance. Unless otherwise agreed, any Easement transferred under this Agreement shall be delivered to the Air Force with policy of title insurance having the United States of America as a named insured. The Parties shall establish procedures and criteria for acquisition of a title insurance policy, its allowable exceptions, and the allocation of the associated costs and expenses associated with it. ARTICLE III – COSTS Section 301. Air Force. a. This Agreement will serve as the basis for the Air Force to issue obligation document(s) for funds allocated to the Installation for which this Agreement is made.

Eligible Entity. a.

ARTICLE IV – FUNDING Section 401. Funding Limitations. a. Funding by the Air Force is subject to the availability of funds annually appropriated by Congress for the purpose of carrying out the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) REPI Program. However, the Air Force is under no obligation to allocate or obligate these funds until or unless the annually appropriated funds have been allocated to the Air Force by OSD under the OSD REPI Program. Funds may also be provided by the Air Force from other appropriated O&M funds. b. This Agreement may be used as the basis for Air Force obligation and Eligible Entity expense of appropriated funds only for acquisition of Real Property Interests and Allowable Transaction Costs as provided in this Agreement. c. Funds received by the Eligible Entity in any given year must be placed in an interest bearing account and may be used by the Eligible Entity for such purposes as provided in this Agreement until the end of five (5) years after the end of the Fiscal Year in which they were obligated for use by the Eligible Entity, at which time the appropriation is automatically cancelled. Funds not used (both principal and interest accrued) by the Eligible Entity by the date of funds cancellation must be promptly returned to the United States Treasury as directed by the Air Force. d. Generally, funding provided for any Fiscal Year must be spent by the Eligible Entity before the next or subsequent Fiscal Year’s funding is spent by the Eligible Entity. An award based on a REPI challenge submittal must be spent on the parcels listed in the REPI challenge submittal package. 6 Packet Pg. 267 e. Other than the use of funds for acquisition of the Real Property Interest(s) and Allowable Transaction Costs, including costs for easement compliance, oversight, and enforcement, if applicable, the Air Force intends it shall have no other financial obligations under the terms of this Agreement. (For example, no relocation costs or other incidental expenses shall be due the landowner from the Air Force or for any payment(s) to a third-party unless expressly agreed to by subsequent written agreement of the Parties.) ARTICLE V – PAYMENT Section 501. Timely Payment by the Air Force.

The Air Force and the Eligible Entity acknowledge the Real Property Interest(s), if successfully negotiated for acquisition by the Eligible Entity, cannot be acquired until the funds are first obligated by the Air Force, and the Air Force has expressly authorized the expenditure of those funds. c. Appropriate payment documents, such as vouchers, or closing statements, shall be submitted to the Air Force at least twenty-one (21) days prior to closing scheduled for each transaction acquisition of a Real Property Interest. Failure to submit these documents within that time period shall not affect the entitlement of the Eligible Entity to receive the costs in question, but may delay payment beyond the scheduled closing date of the transaction.

In no event shall the Air Force make direct payment to any contractor, employee, contractor employee, or vendor of the Eligible Entity for any costs incurred under this Agreement.

Specifically, the statute states that a County government may “self-perform” public works projects valued at greater than $300,000... “When the governing board of the local government, after public notice, conducts a public meeting under s. 286.011 and finds by a majority vote of the governing board that it is in the public's best interest to perform the project using its own services, employees, and equipment.” BACKGROUND: In April of 2012, OCWS entered into an interlocal agreement with the City of Niceville and City of Valparaiso to transfer its ownership and treatment capacity at the NVOC Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility. As part of this agreement, OCWS transferred its cost sharing responsibility of the NVOC facility, upon relocation of all of its flows from the East County/Bluewater Bay Service Area to the Arbennie Pritchett Water Reclamation Facility (APWRF). As part of this relocation, OCWS would need to construct a new sanitary sewer force main and repump station to convey its flows to the APWRF. The force main and repump station will convey all wastewater flows from the East County service area to the Eglin Main pump station being constructed on Eglin AFB Main Base then to the County’s APWRF. OCWS is proposing to self-perform the construction of the new force main and repump station. OCWS plans to use OCWS staff and equipment to expedite completion of the project. OCWS estimates that using their own forces and equipment to construct the project will shorten the construction schedule and will reduce the project costs over contracting with an outside construction company. OCWS has estimated the construction project to cost approximately $4,169,312.14. As stated in the attached Public Notice, a cost breakdown of the project can be viewed by the public at our office anytime between now and the Public Meeting. The cost includes material (with fringe/insurance), labor, equipment (with maintenance), and subcontracted work. OCWS has reviewed the construction requirements for the project and has determined that we have the necessary qualifications, labor and available time to complete the project. As presented earlier, Section 255.20 F.S., Local bids and contracts for public construction works; specification Packet Pg. 291 of state-produced lumber includes specific requirements for County governments that choose to construct projects valued at greater than $300,000 using their own forces and equipment. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff requests BCC approval to advertise and hold a public meeting at the May 20, 2014 BCC meeting to discuss and to vote on approval for OCWS to self-perform construction on the new force main and repump station for the East County Force Main and Repump Station Project. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: Ernie Padgett, County Administrator Packet Pg. 292 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa County, Florida, on May 20, 2014 at 9:00 A.M., or soon thereafter, at the County Commissioners meeting room, Water & Sewer Annex, 1804 Lewis Turner Blvd., 3rd Floor, Ft. Walton Beach, Florida will hold a hearing to discuss the County’s proposal to construct the East County Force Main and Repump Station Project using Okaloosa County Water and Sewer Department (OCWS) staff and equipment. The public hearing shall constitute the public meeting as required by section 225.20, Fla. Stat. The purpose of the public meeting is to consider whether it is in the public’s best interest to perform the project using the local government’s own services, employees, and equipment. The scope of work generally consists of the construction of a new 20 inch diameter sewer force main (totaling approximately 6.7 miles in length) and a new 4.2 million gallon per day sewer repump station. The estimated cost of the design-build project using OCWS staff is $4,169,312.14. ALL INTERESTED PERSONS ARE INVITED TO ATTEND AND BE HEARD REGARDING THE PUBLIC HEARING. The proposal and cost estimate breakdown may be inspected by the public at Okaloosa County Water & Sewer, 1804 Lewis Turner Blvd., 3rd floor, Engineering Office, 850-651-7504. If any person decides to appeal any decision made with respect to any matter considered at these hearings, such person will need a record of the proceeding and may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the proceeding is made which record includes the testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to be based. Okaloosa County adheres to the American Disabilities Act and will make reasonable modifications for access to these hearings upon request. Requests may be made to the Water & Sewer offices described above and must be made at least 48 hours in advance of the hearings in order to provide the requested service.

Packet Pg. 297 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: April 15, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Jeff Littrell SUBJECT: Trailer Mounted By-Pass Pump - Emergency Sole Source Purchase DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer BCC DISTRICT: 5 STATEMENT OF ISSUE: OCWS staff is requesting BCC approval for an emergency sole source purchase of a 12" Diesel Powered Trailer Mounted By-Pass Pump to be utilized at Post Office Lift Station and other lift stations in the long-term future. The sole source form and documents from a previous bid process are attached for your review. BACKGROUND: The Post Office Lift Station, located on 37th Street in Niceville, is one of our oldest and largest lift stations in our entire service area. It pumps approximately 800,000 gallons per day from the East County Service Area (Bluewater Bay, Lancaster, Raintree, etc.) to the Niceville Valparaiso Regional Sewer Plant in Niceville. In the modern era, a station of this magnitude should be built with three or four pumps. Being an old lift station, it was only designed to have two pumps. Unfortunately, only one pump is in service - the other aging pump exploded on 3/27/2014. With a few sewer spills in the past year at this lift station (they were reported properly and the spills did not get into a body of water or wetlands), we need a reliable solution. Per state regulations, any public lift station shall have a minimum of 2 pumps in it. We feel that it is not responsible to operate this lift station with only one pump in operation. In addition, this lift station will be no longer be needed after Phases 1-5 and 9 are completed of the East County Master Sewer Plan (attached) - approximately 8 months from now. Instead of spending over $60,000 for a new pump for Post Office Lift Station, where lead time for the pump is approximately 6 months, we feel that a better alternative is to purchase a trailer mounted by-pass pump to be utilized at Post Office Lift Station, in the case of failure of the remaining pump which is currently in service. In the future, when Post Office Lift Station is eliminated, this can be used at other lift stations during emergency conditions. With so many large lift stations aging, the need for a second large horsepower trailer mounted by-pass pump is increasing. On Dec. 18, 2012, the BCC approved a bid award of the first large horsepower trailer mounted by-pass pump to the low bidder meeting specifications - Thompson Pump (Pensacola), in the amount of $97,750.00. We have since found that pump to be very useful; however, we need it to be utilized at other lift stations for emergencies, and we can't use it for other emergency needs if is it sitting stationary at one station (Post Office Lift Station) for a long period of time. Thompson Pump is willing to provide the same pump in the 2014 model for the same price - $97,750.00 (see attached quote). Since we have an emergency, time constraints, and since this has been competitively bid out, staff is recommending the purchase of this second large trailer Packet Pg. 298 mounted bypass pump from Thompson Pump for $97,750.00. A Sole Source Form requesting the emergency procurement is attached to this agenda request. With our responsibility and stewardship to our customers in mind, we feel that this is the best and quickest option from an environmental and financial perspective. Should the BCC approve this request and Purchasing issue the subsequent purchase order, the new trailer mounted bypass pump should be here in approximately 30-45 days. If we were to go through the process of obtaining quotes or the bid process, the timeline would be extended anywhere from 1-3 months in order to go through procurement, subsequent BCC agenda requests, submittals, and final approvals. By issuing an emergency purchase order now, this will help meet our time constraints - essentially of needing this pump "yesterday". This piece of equipment is not in the approved Capital Outlay portion of our FY2014 budget. The Water & Sewer fund has sufficient amounts to pay for this emergency purchase. A budget transfer will be required and that transfer will be brought before the BCC for approval. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize Purchasing to issue an emergency purchase order to Thompson Pump in the amount of $97,750 for a large (12") diesel powered trailer mounted by-pass pump per the attached quote.

BACKGROUND: Okaloosa County entered into contract with Layne Christensen Co., Inc. on April 3, 2013 for the construction of the Del Cerro II Public Water Supply Well in the amount of $934,895. During the test well construction and testing, it was observed that the water bearing formation exhibited low yield and sand. Additional pumping and analysis was performed and a determination was made to continue with the development of the permanent well despite these obstacles in hopes that despite the low yield, a satisfactory well could be obtained though there was a real possibility that a gravel pack (filter) and screen or other measures might be required to abate the sand. The full diameter well has now been completed and test pumping has showed an improved yield, though the formation still produces sand. Change Orders #1 and #2 have been executed, for $20,640 and $10,740, respectively. The change orders are for the extended pumping and unforeseen circumstances with the surface casing. To remedy the high sand concentration and allow the well to be developed to produce water of such quality required by a public water supply well, a gravel pack (filter) and screen is required and has been recommended by the Contractor with concurrence by the project’s engineer. In addition to this requirement, realizing the well hydraulic losses that will be caused by the filter and screen, it is recommended that the capacity of the well be decreased from a minimum of 1,000 gpm to 750 gpm. 750 gpm is a satisfactory capacity for the needs of our system. Further, because much of the sizing and procurement of the electrical equipment is dependent on the measured hydraulics of the well which has been delayed due to the unforeseen problems, an increase in overall project time is requested by the Contractor and concurred by the project’s engineer. The above items will be accomplished via Change Order #3, which would add an additional $99,530 in scope of work. The resulting new contract price would then be $1,065,805. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATION: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute Change Order #3 with Layne Christensen Company on Contract #C13-2026-WS for the Del Cerro II Public Water Supply Well, which authorizes the gravel pack and screen at a cost of Packet Pg. 315 $99,530, increases the total new contract price to $1,065,805, revises the minimum capacity of the well from 1,000 gpm to 750 gpm, and revises the contract time by adding 153 days to Substantial Completion and 122 days for Final Completion.

OCWS has requested the services of Polyengineering under Task Order 115 per the terms of Contract #C05-1175-WS. Revision 2 (attached) adds $27,592.00 in scope of work to the current Task Order amount, for a new Task Order total of $166,432.00. BACKGROUND: Polyengineering Task Order 115, for $128,702, was approved by the BCC in February 2012. Polyengineering’s overall scope of work is to furnish engineering design, bid documents, and construction phase services for a new public supply well, Del Cerro II. Layne Christensen Company was the low bidder of the project and is under contract with Okaloosa County for the construction of this project. During the construction of the test well, a lower than expected yield was observed and the water bearing formation was producing sand in sufficient quantities to be of concern. Extensive discussions and evaluations were made on whether to further pursue or abandon the project; this additional work was covered in Polyengineering Task Order 115, Revision 1 for $10,138.00. The economics of abandoning the project were found untenable and despite the problems observed with the test well, it was believed a permanent well could be developed through several possible avenues (i.e. gravel pack, above-ground filter, or below-ground filter). The permanent well has subsequently been drilled and results obtained that prove a gravel pack and screen/filter will be required. The Contractor has submitted a change order for this work (Change Order #3 on this same BCC Agenda). Because of future maintenance on a gravel packed well, the well head needs to be housed outside of the on site building to minimize future well rehab costs. For example, the well may need to be re-chlorinated or acidized about 10 years from now. Since the well head was originally designed to be inside the building, changes are necessary in the engineering and architecture plans to move the well head outside of the building. Moving the water supply well head outside the building will necessitate both a revision to the previously approved site plan and also the redesign of the building to be in line with an outside well head configuration. In addition to new architectural drawings, the electrical and mechanical drawings will also require revision. Also, the Contractor, via his Change Order #3, requests an additional 4-month time extension. Additional time/costs are allotted within this task order revision to continue administering the project and provide continued on-site observation. Task Order 115 Revision 2 adds $27,592.00 in scope of work as outlined above. Packet Pg. 321 OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute Polyengineering Task Order 115 Revision 2, adding $27,592.00, for a total not to exceed amount of $166,432.00 on the Task Order.

Concurrently, approve Change Order #2 to add additional scope of work for rehabilitation of gravity sewer lines in the Garniers Service Area (Phase III of this maintenance contract). For your review, attached is the Contract Renewal Form which includes Consumer Price Index (CPI) backup information and Certificate of Insurance, Change Order #2 Form, and Change Order #2 Breakdown. BACKGROUND: An annual maintenance contract with a two-year initial contract period for the rehabilitation of gravity sewer lines was awarded on May 24, 2012. As noted in the preceing paragraph, the contract language allows for a two year renewal. The initial phase, which included the rehabilitation of the main transmission lines along Santa Rosa Blvd. on Okaloosa Island was completed during the summer of 2012. OCWS staff was satisfied with the quality of work performed on the original phase and added to the contract. The next phase, adding scope of work with Change Order #1 (for $193,820.00), consisted of pre-rehabilitation cleaning and CCTV video inspection of an additional 45,000+ LF of gravity sewer previously identified as problematic, primarily on the Island and in the Ocean City/Wright areas. In addition, two heavily corroded cast iron pipe lines (one under Eglin Parkway in Shalimar) will be cleaned with specialty equipment, then relined in this phase. This work is scheduled to begin in April 2014. Upon completion of the work in Change Order #1, the next phase of the project will be the repair by either point repair or complete relining of problematic sections of pipe. The costs for the expected repairs in the area inspected in Change Order #1 will be added to the contract in Change Order #2 with an amount of $636,408.73. Simultaneously, the contract needs to be renewed for an additional two years, as outlined in the original contract. The current contract also allows for CPI increases with the contract renewal. As such, Insituform has requested a modest CPI increase - per the established CPI the past 2 years (1.7% in 2012 and 1.5% in 2013). This renewal will "lock in" unit prices through May 24, 2016. The contract was awarded to Insituform Technologies, LLC. of Chesterfield, MO. in the amount of $288,383.00 in May 2012. Change Order #1 added $193,820.00 to the original contract, for a revised contract total of $482,203.00. Change Order #2 will increase the total contract price to $1,118,611.73. Although this is called a "change order", no changes are being made to the contract terms and conditions, or unit prices (except for contract sanctioned CPI increases). This change order simply adds scope/quantities, as was originally intended to be Phase II of this Packet Pg. 326 mission critical work to address major issues related to aging sanitary sewer collection system infrastructure. OPTIONS: Approve or deny. RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute the Contract Renewal and Change Order #2 to Contract # C12-1955-WS with Insituform Technologies LLC, adding $636,408.73 in scope of work for the rehabilitation of gravity sewer (Phase II of maintenance contract).

BACKGROUND and ANALYSIS: The pedestrian bridge across Memorial Pond has deteriorated and is need of repair. In the past, the bridge was used as a cart path for patrons of the old par 3 golf course. The closure of the golf course after Hurricane Ivan left most of the site and support facilities, including the pedestrian bridge, in disrepair. The Gulf Coast Marine Life Center has agreed to provide the labor for the repairs to the bridge with Okaloosa County supplying material. The existing bridge was 8 ft wide and 170 ft long. As part of the Phase I improvements to Veterans Park, plans call for reconstructing the bridge to its original width and length. The bridge, when repaired, will tie into the newly constructed pedestrian walkway on the east and west side of the pond allowing pedestrians to cross over the pond. A materials cost estimate has been prepared and the linear foot estimate is $61.73, for a total cost of $10,500.00. Funds for the materials are available utilizing the existing Facility Lease fees for the two leased parcels fronting US Hwy 98. In addition to this project, Public Works staff is in the process of completing the Phase 1 walking trail through the east end of the Veterans Park property ($26,068 spent to date). As our staff neared completion of the project, some concerns were raised as to the ability of the path to accommodate disabled patrons. While staff cannot change the topography of the parcel to meet ADA construction standards, further hardened improvements can be made to the path to accommodate disabled patrons. This modification would require decking the recently installed walking path at a cost of $20,000. It should be noted that decking the walking path will not ensure full compliance with ADA standards. However, this would be considered a “reasonable” accommodation given the site constraints on the property. As stated above, the County cannot secure permits through the State or US Army Corps of Engineers to alter the topography of the land since it is considered a protected Coastal Dune system. This alone would make it nearly impossible to meet grading requirements consistent with ADA standards. OPTIONS: Approve/disapprove the purchase of materials needed for the pedestrian bridge Packet Pg. 434 repairs and modifications to the Phase 1 walking trail. RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve purchase of materials at an estimated cost of $10,500.00 for the pedestrian bridge across Memorial Pond and $20,000 for modifications to the Phase 1 walking trail on the east end of the property utilizing Facility Lease fee funds.

The FBI number is one of several options that will help ensure that only eligible inmates are entered into the SCAAP application, as the FBI number is automatically assigned to each individual arrested and convicted of a felony or two misdemeanors. Per the SCAAP Program Guidelines, eligible inmates are defined as those who have one felony conviction or two misdemeanor convictions. In addition, the FBI number could help decrease the number of unknown inmate records paid each year with SCAAP funds. PART I: SCAAP Guidelines SCAAP Overview The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice, administers SCAAP, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (OHS). SCAAP provides federal payments to states and localities that incurred correctional officer salary costs for incarcerating undocumented criminal aliens who have at least one felony or two misdemeanor convictions for violations of state or local law, and who are incarcerated for at least 4 consecutive days during the reporting period. SCAAP Legislative Authority SCAAP is governed by Section 241 (i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1231 (i), as amended, and Title II, Subtitle C, Section 20301, Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, Pub. L. 103-322. In general terms, if a chief executive officer of a state or a political subdivision exercises authority over the incarceration of undocumented criminal aliens and submits a written request to the U.S. Attorney General, the Attorney General may provide compensation to that jurisdiction for those incarceration costs. SCAAP is subject to additional terms and conditions of yearly congressional appropriations. Eligible Applicants States and local units of government that have authority over correctional facilities that incarcerate or detain undocumented criminal aliens for a minimum of 4 consecutive days are eligible to apply for SCAAP funds. States and local units of general government include the 50 state governments, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the more than 3,000 counties and cities with correctional facilities. Regional jails, special jail districts, or regional jail authorities and boards do not qualify as political subdivisions of a state for purposes of SCAAP, and therefore are not eligible to directly apply for SCAAP funds. Each unit of government that houses inmates at a regional facility must apply independently for SCAAP funds, based on its own costs of housing its undocumented aliens in the regional facility. Regional facilities may not submit SCAAP applications on behalf of jurisdictions in its service area, nor may a regional facility submit one application for all participating jurisdictions, using one jurisdiction's name as the recipient. FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 1 Packet Pg. 453 Authorized Officials SCAAP payments must go directly to eligible states and localities. Authorized jurisdiction employees for SCAAP purposes must be listed as either the Authorized Representative or Alternate Contact in the GMS User Profile. The chief executive officer (CEO) of an eligible jurisdiction may apply directly or delegate authority to another jurisdiction official. The CEO is generally considered the highest ranking elected or appointed official of a unit of government. Use of SCAAP Awards The Department of Justice Reauthorization Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109-162, Title XI) included the following requirement regarding the use of SCAAP funds: "Amounts appropriated pursuant to the authorization of appropriations in paragraph (5) that are distributed to a State or political subdivision of a State, including a municipality, may be used only for correctional purposes." Beginning with FY 2007 SCAAP awards, SCAAP funds must be used for correctional purposes only. Jurisdictions receiving SCAAP awards will be asked to report the projected use of these funds at the time the award is accepted. Minimum Period of Incarceration Only eligible persons who were incarcerated for 4 or more consecutive days between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013 may be included in the FY 2014 SCAAP application. Multi-Jurisdictional Issues • Eligible inmates housed in the applicant's facility exclusively on behalf of another jurisdiction may only be reported by the sending jurisdiction, regardless of whether the applicant received reimbursement for related incarceration costs. • Unless otherwise covered by a cost reimbursement agreement, inmates who are ready for release once qualifying charges or convictions are concluded, and who are temporarily held in the applicant facility on the basis of outstanding warrants or detainers from other jurisdictions, including federal law enforcement agencies, are SCAAP eligible. The applicant jurisdiction may claim the total number of days the inmate was in custody, including the days the inmate was held on the detainers or outstanding warrants. • Detention or incarceration days attributable to otherwise qualifying inmates held on federal charges, convictions, or detainers and covered by cost reimbursement agreements are not SCAAP eligible. • Juveniles adjudicated delinquent, regardless of the charges or length of custody, are not SCAAP eligible. Only juvenile offenders who are convicted as adults and who meet the qualifying SCAAP criteria may be eligible. Eligible Inmates Applicants may submit records of inmates in their custody during the reporting period who: • Were born outside the United States or one of its territories and had no reported or documented claim to U.S. citizenship. • Were in the applicant's custody for 4 or more consecutive days during the reporting period. • Were convicted of a felony or second misdemeanor for violations of state or local law. • Were identified and reported as undocumented, using due diligence. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security will make the final determination on the status of submitted inmate records for undocumented alien purposes. Inmates may qualify for SCAAP purposes if they were: • Persons who entered the U.S. without inspection or at any time or place other than as designated by the Attorney General. • Persons in deportation or exclusion proceedings at the time they were taken into custody. • Non-immigrants who failed to maintain their non-immigrant status at the time they were taken into custody. • Certain Mariel Cubans who otherwise meet these requirements. FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 2 Packet Pg. 454 Total All Inmate Days The "total all inmate days" is the cumulative number of incarceration or detention days attributable to all inmates housed in the jurisdiction's facilities during the reporting period. It includes all inmates, regardless of their status, citizenship, disposition, or length of stay, including inmates held at contract facilities. A jurisdiction can use the sum of all nightly, facility head counts for the 365 days in the reporting period. EXAMPLE TOTAL DAYS A Jurisdiction detained or incarcerated 400 inmates during the current reporting cycle. 2,800 Each inmate was held for exactly 7 days. (400 inmates x 7 days) Criminal Charges and Convictions To be eligible for reporting, inmates must have been convicted of a felony or second misdemeanor for violations of state or local law, and housed in the applicant's state or local correctional facility for 4 or more consecutive days during the reporting period. All pre-trial and post conviction time served from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013 may be reported to BJA. EXAMPLES REPORTABLE DAYS An alien was convicted of a felony during the reporting period and spent 20 days in pretrial detention and 60 additional days from the conviction. All 80 days occurred during 80 the reportinq period An alien was convicted of a felony during the reporting period and spent 20 days in pretrial detention and 60 additional days from the conviction. The 20 pretrial detention 60 days and 40 of the sentenced days occurred in the reporting period; the remaining 20 davs were served after June 30, 2013. An alien was convicted of a felony several years ago and is being held in pretrial detention on new charges. As this alien already qualifies based on the prior felony As calculated conviction, once he meets the minimum of 4 consecutive days in custody during the reporting period, the pretrial days may be reported to BJA, regardless of the outcome of the pendinq charqes. An alien was convicted of a second misdemeanor and served 3 consecutive days as of June 30, 2013, and 20 additional days after June 30, 2013. This inmate cannot be 0 reported for FY 2014, but will qualify for FY 2015. NOTE The first 3 days of the sentence are not reoortable. regardless of what occurs with this inmate in the future. Required Inmate Data Format The detailed inmate file reflects the jurisdiction's good faith and due diligence efforts to identify and list undocumented criminal aliens housed in its correctional facilities. Required inmate data elements include the A- Number, if known; last, middle, and first names; date of birth; unique inmate number assigned by the applicant jurisdiction; foreign country of birth; date taken into custody; date released from custody; and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) number, if known. For inmates with aliases or multiple periods of incarceration: Creating a separate and distinct inmate record for each qualifying period of incarceration may include eligible inmates incarcerated more than once during the reporting period. Similarly, inmates with known aliases may be reported by creating a separate and distinct inmate record for each name. The same unique inmate identification number must be used for all records associated with a single inmate, regardless of the name under which the inmate was incarcerated. Applications submitted without complete facility data and inmate records will not be considered for SCAAP funding. FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 3 Packet Pg. 455 Country of Birth Codes Generally, a person born in the U.S. or a U.S. territory is a U.S. citizen and should not be reported. Any submitted inmate record that includes a country code not on the official ICE country codes list will be rejected. Any record with an official country code that does not specifically represent a foreign country (unknown) will only be considered in the award calculation if determined the inmate is undocumented or otherwise qualifies. If the country provided by the inmate is not on the official ICE country codes list, a country with close geographic proximity should be selected. Alternatives to Traditional Incarceration Inmates are not eligible if they served their incarceration incrementally, such as through weekend incarcerations that enabled them to maintain employment. Qualifying periods of incarceration must occur consecutively over the course of 4 or more days. Parole and Probation Violators Eligible inmates on parole or probation from qualifying convictions who are subsequently returned to the custody of a state or local correctional facility may be eligible. Correctional Officers Correctional officers include employees, officers, and contractual staff whose primary responsibility is the control, custody, or supervision of persons detained and incarcerated, including correctional officers, deputy sheriffs, correctional/jail supervisors, shift commanders, chiefs of security, assistant wardens, and wardens. Transportation officers and others providing control, custody, or supervision of inmates who are temporarily outside the maintaining facility are also eligible. Employees, officers, and contractual staff whose primary responsibility is providing noncustody services to the facility or its inmate population are not SCAAP eligible, including office and secretarial support, administrative, housekeeping, maintenance, food, health, education, training, vocational, counseling, and medical staff. Staff who function independently or outside the correctional facility, including parole and probation agents, hearing officers, court commissioners, judicial, prosecutorial, and public defenders, warrant and apprehension units, and others are not eligible. Correctional Officer Salary Calculation Salary information reported in the SCAAP application must reflect the total salaries and wages paid to full- and part-time correctional officers and others who meet the SCAAP definition. The reported sum should total the jurisdiction's actual salary expenditures for the reporting period, not an estimate or average. Correctional officer salary costs may include premium pay for specialized service, shift differential pay, and fixed-pay increases for time in service. It may also include overtime required by negotiated contract, statute, or regulation such as union agreements, contractual obligations, and required post staffing minimums. Benefits should not be included in the provided salary costs. Per Diem Costs Per diem cost is calculated by the SCAAP system, dividing the jurisdiction's "total all inmate days" into the "total correctional officer salary costs." During the FY 2013 reporting period, jurisdictions reported an average per diem cost of $31.97. BJA may require documentation to validate per diem costs or impose limits on the costs. SCAAP Award Calculation Once SCAAP data has been validated and analyzed, applicants will receive e-mail notification that awards are ready for online acceptance and drawdown. Formal acceptance of an award via GMS is necessary for the electronic transfer of funds into the applicant's bank account of record. Applicants have 45 calendar days to accept awards through GMS once notice is provided. SCAAP payments must go to the jurisdictions' general fund. Payment Formula The following provides an overview of the method used to calculate SCAAP payments FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 4 Packet Pg. 456 1. Using financial data from applicants, a per diem rate is calculated for each jurisdiction. For FY 2013 the average per diem rate was $31.97 per inmate. 2. Inmate data is provided to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to validate inmate data for eligible and invalid records. 3. Each jurisdiction's total eligible inmate days are totaled then multiplied by the applicant's per diem rate to derive the total correctional officer salary costs for eligible inmate days. 4. The value of each applicant's correctional officer salary costs associated with its eligible inmate days are totaled. This total value reflects the maximum amount for SCAAP reimbursement. A percentage factor is used to reflect the relationship between the maximum reimbursable salary costs and the appropriation. For FY 2013, this factor was approximately 19 percent. Variances A variance will exist between the total salary costs reported by a jurisdiction and the final SCAAP payment amount, due to adjustments for ineligible or invalid inmate records and the annual appropriation. Both the SCAAP system and BJA check for variances from prior year submissions for correctional officer staffing and salary levels, total bed count, and number of total inmate days. PART II: Applying for FY 2014 SCAAP Funds FY 2014 Reporting Period The FY 2014 SCAAP reporting period is from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013. FY 2014 Registration and Application Deadlines Applications will be accepted through the online Grants Management System (GMS) beginning April 1, 2014, and ending at 6:00 pm. e.d.t. on May 13, 2014. The deadline for submitting all completed SCAAP applications is, May 13, 2014 at 6:00 p.m. (e.d.t.). Extensions or exceptions to this deadline cannot be granted. Because of the volume and complexities involved in verification of all submitted inmate data and the fact that BJA transmits this file to OHS immediately after the close of the solicitation, it is not possible for additional applicant data to be reviewed and sent to OHS after the deadline. GMS Application Process The SCAAP Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number is 16.606. For questions or concerns at any point in the GMS process, call the SCAAP Help Desk at 1-202-353-4411. 1. Access GMS at https//grants.ojp.usdoj.gov. 2. If you already have a GMS user ID, proceed to the GMS sign in. Even if your organization already has a user ID, you will not be considered registered for the solicitation until you have signed on to GMS and entered the appropriate solicitation. 3. If you do not have a GMS user ID, select "New User? Register Here." After you have completed all of the required information, click "Create Account" at the bottom of the page and to note your user ID and password, which are case sensitive. Within a few days, BJA will send an e-mail confirmation to newly registered applicants that their user ID and password have been approved and they are eligible to submit an application. 4. Beginning October 1, 2003, a Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number must be included in every application for a new award or renewal of an award. The DUNS number will be required whether an applicant is submitting an application on paper, through OJP's Grants Management System, or using the government-wide electronic portal (Grants.gov). An application will not be considered complete until the applicant provides a valid DUNS number. FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 5 Packet Pg. 457 Organizations should verify that they have a DUNS number or take the steps necessary to obtain one as soon as possible. Applicants can receive a DUNS number at no cost by calling the dedicated toll-free DUNS number request line at 1-800-333-0505. 5. After you have logged onto the system using your user ID and password, click on '·Funding Opportunities.". Additionally, click on 'A-Z' for more search functions. 6. Select the "Bureau of Justice Assistance" from the drop-down list and click "Search." This will narrow the list of solicitations within the Office of Justice Programs to those in BJA. 7. From the list of BJA grants, find "State Criminal Alien Assistance Program" and click "Apply Online." 8. Confirm that your organization is eligible to apply for this program by reading the text on the screen. If eligible, proceed by clicking "Continue." 9. Once you have reached this point, you are considered successfully registered. Online Inmate Data Reporting Process Select the file upload process below that best meets your needs. While you may change the method prior to submitting the completed application to BJA, note that the change from one process to another will overwrite and delete all previous inmate record submissions. • Direct File Upload: The direct file upload function allows you to submit inmate database records in a single ASCII-formatted file directly into GMS. File uploads must contain the mandatory data fields in the required format. File uploads that do not include the necessary information will be considered incomplete and not eligible SCAAP funding. The SCAAP system provides you with an opportunity to correct files or add missing data prior to finalizing the application. • Direct Data Entry: The direct data entry function allows you to manually enter inmate data directly into an online inmate data template, instead of creating a separate ASCII file. This approach may be best suited for jurisdictions with smaller facilities or small criminal alien populations. Drop-down menus are provided for selecting incarceration dates, date of birth, and country of birth (complete country names are listed). During the file upload process, a red flashing bar will appear at the bottom of the applicant screen. This bar will continue to flash until the inmate file upload is complete. Upon completion of the inmate file upload, SCAAP GMS will provide the applicant with a "File Upload Status Report." This report will list the number of inmate records in the upload and the number of inmate records that are complete. In addition, the report will provide a detailed list of inmate records (by file number) that are incomplete or have data format errors and the nature of the error. Print this file upload status report for your records. If during the file upload process, your Internet browser times out or is disconnected, your inmate file upload may not be complete. It is important that you check the "File Upload Status Report" and verify that all of your inmate records have been uploaded. When initiating a file upload, there is an approximate 10 second start-up delay. Once the file upload has actually begun, the estimated times for file uploads: 300 inmate records = less than 1 minute; 7,800 inmate records= 3 minutes; 54,600 inmate records = 15 minutes. Technical System Requirements Internet access is required to apply for SCAAP funding. Generally, Netscape Communicator 4.7 and Internet Explorer 5.5 are the earliest versions of the respective Internet browsers that may be used for successful SCAAP application system access. Contact your agency network administrator to determine if an internal firewall or agency Internet security system may be preventing direct access to the application system, or contact the GMS Help Desk for information regarding correct port settings. If you are a prior SCAAP user, the browser bookmark may not work properly and an attempt to access the SCAAP application site may generate a message advising that the "page cannot be displayed." Delete the bookmark and manually type the URL into the browser address line. Internet User Accounts Government officials from the applying jurisdictions must establish the OJP GMS user accounts for SCAAP. Non-government officials may not establish user accounts on behalf of applying jurisdictions. When establishing FY 2014 SCAAP Guidelines and Application Page 6 Packet Pg. 458 a user account, sheriffs or chiefs of police are not considered CE Os, but they may serve as the contact persons establishing the SCMP user accounts on behalf of the CEOs. All applications must be filed in the name of the state or unit of government and must include the jurisdiction's CEO's name, official title, and e-mail address. Application Resubmissions BJA may return a submitted application with incomplete or inaccurate data to the applicant for corrections, and will notify both the CEO and the SCMP contact, via the e-mail address of record, that their application needs to be corrected and resubmitted by a certain date to be considered for SCMP funding.
