BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Elliot Kampert
SUBJECT: Change to Land Development Code - Beekeeping
DEPARTMENT: Growth Management
BCC DISTRICT: All
PUBLIC HEARING: Consideration of a request for changes to the Land Development Code
(LDC) submitted by the Department of Growth Management revising Chapter 2, Section 2.21.00
“Accessory Uses and Structures”, Subsection 10 “Livestock; Poultry; Beekeeping.” This is the
first of two public hearings, the second hearing will be held September 16, 2014.
STAFF FINDINGS: Chapter 2 “Zoning Regulations” was substantially re-written and the revisions
approved in May, 2010, including those regulations regarding livestock, poultry, and beekeeping. Since
that time the Legislature amended Section 586.10 of the Florida Statutes (FS) to read, in pertinent part, as
follows.
The authority to regulate, inspect, and permit managed honeybee colonies and to adopt rules on the
placement and location of registered inspected managed honeybee colonies is preempted to the state
through the department and supercedes any related ordinance adopted by a county, municipality, or
political subdivision thereof.
Section 586.045, FS, further states as follows.
Each beekeeper having honeybee colonies within the state shall apply to the department, on forms
supplied by the department, for certificates of inspection and registration, and for annual renewal on the
anniversary date of the registration. An application for renewal postmarked after the anniversary date
shall be accompanied by a $10 late filing fee.
This means that the regulation of beekeeping is essentially reserved unto the Florida Department of
Agriculture which trumps county and city zoning regulations. The proposed change to Chapter 2 is
intended to promote consistency with state law and avoid potential misreading of the county’s zoning
regulations regarding beekeeping.
PUBLIC COMMENT/OPPOSITION: None to date.
PLANNING COMMISSION: The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval at
a public hearing held August 14, 2010.
MILITARY REPRESENTATIVE: No comment.
STAFF POSITION: Staff supports the requested changes to the Land Development Code.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board consider the facts presented herein, the
Planning Commission recommendation, as well as any other facts that may be presented at the public
hearing, and then make a final decision at the September 16, 2010 public hearing.

AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Kate W. Daniel, Regional Planner I , West FL Regional Planning Council
SUBJECT: Visitor - Rural County Road Needs/FDOT Rural Work Program
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board is requested to review and comment on the attached
map of rural county needs submitted by the Public Works Department. Identified projects will
be submitted to FDOT as part of the Rural Work Liaison Program. If no comments are received,
the list of projects will be submitted to FDOT as presented
BACKGROUND: The West Florida Regional Planning Council (WFRPC) serves as a liaison
between FDOT and the rural portions of Okaloosa County not represented by a Transportation
Planning Organization (TPO). The purpose of the FDOT Rural Work Program is to receive
input into the development of FDOT’s Five Year Work Program.
FDOT works annually with agencies, local governments and the public to update the Five Year
Transportation Work Program. The FDOT selects the highest priorities based on local input and
available funding and prepares the tentative work program for approval by the State Legislature
each year.
The Rural Work Program Liaison receives input and comments from rural areas on desired road
projects and communicates comments back to the FDOT District 3 Work Program Staff. Ideally,
state road projects like resurfacing, intersection improvements, on-going maintenance and bridge
replacements can be programmed into the FDOT Five Year Work Program for future funding.
Sidewalks, multi-use trails and other safety and enhancement projects can also be considered for
funding.
Also attached is a map of scheduled FDOT Work Program FY 2015-2019 projects in the rural
areas of the County.
RECOMMENDATION: Review and comment on the attached list of transportation
improvements needed in the rural area of Okaloosa County. If no comments are received, the
attached list of rural road projects will be submitted to FDOT.

FROM: Rick Owen
SUBJECT: Matrix Payment Approval
DEPARTMENT: County Administrator
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Payment of the May 1 to July 2, 2014 contract payment invoice
from Matrix Design Group requires Board approval.
BACKGROUND: Matrix Design Group is under contract by Okaloosa County to provide
consulting services related to the RESTORE Act. As a result of an additional opportunity to
submit environmental projects for consideration under the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation
grant program, staff requested Matrix to provide additional consulting that would not exceed the
total amount of the company’s contract.
The attached invoice reflects this additional consulting service under Task 2, surpassing the total
fee in this task by $2,675.18. Since Matrix did not expend the total amount in the project
expenses line, this overage amount can draw from this line and not exceed to total contracted
amount of $147,436.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove Matrix contract payment
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends Board approve payment of the May 1 - July 2,
2014 invoice from Matrix Design Group.

SUBJECT: Disk Backup Solution
DEPARTMENT: Information Systems
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board is requested to approve the purchase of a Disk Backup
solution from Catalogic under Florida State Contract 250-000-09-1 in the amount of $75,162.68
from United Data Technologies. Quote #OC082214-01 is attached.
BACKGROUND: Information Systems (IS) needs to replace the current legacy (2006) Tape
Library for backup of County data with a new larger disk device to be able to meet a retention
period of approximately 60 days. IS cannot store 30 days of data due to exceeding the limit of

the current Tape Library that supports 9 TB and give an offsite disaster recovery solution.
The purchase of this item has been discussed with staff from Purchasing.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the purchase of a Disk Backup solution from Catalogic
under Florida State Contract 250-000-09-1 in the amount of $75,162.68 from United Data

SUBJECT: Cox Communications PRI Commercial Services Agreements
DEPARTMENT: Information Systems
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board is requested to grant permission to enter into
Commercial Services Agreements with Cox Communications for our Primary Rate Interface
(PRI) lines and authorize the Chairman to sign each Agreement.
BACKGROUND: Information Systems would like to extend three of four Cox
Communications PRIs for a period of three years; the fourth PRI will be disconnected. Each PRI
will cost $400 per month plus the added surcharges. The total for two of the Agreements will be
$454.45 per month and the total for the third Agreement will be $469.45 per month. The
difference of $15.00 per month for the third Agreement is the DID 100 Number Block for the 50
2nd Street, Shalimar location.
A one-time cost rate sheet is attached for work performed by Cox employees during the life of
the agreement. This rate sheet is current costs and may fluctuate during the contract life. There
may be additional agreements, for added services, that we request permission to sign in
accordance with Purchasing policies.
The Agreements have been through the Purchasing review process.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the three Commercial Services
Agreements with Cox Communications and requests the Board authorize the Chairman to sign
each of the three Agreements.

I'm sorry but we can't am end anything in the terms and cond it ions. We typically do not assign early termination charges
to government accounts and the majority of the services on these accounts are free so terms wouldn ' t apply. The

OUR MISSION
The Okaloosa County Public Library Cooperative (OCPLC) provides convenient, free
access to information, ideas, books and technology that enriches, educates and
empowers the residents of Okaloosa County.
OUR VISION
The Okaloosa County Public Library Cooperative will foster the spirit of exploration, the
joy of reading, and the pursuit of knowledge for all ages and cultures. It will offer
individual enlightenment in every aspect of information and technology in a welcoming
environment that provides challenge, collaboration and entertainment through proactive
service that exceeds customer expectations.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The Okaloosa County Public Library Cooperative values free public access to
information resources collected to satisfy all segments of our service area, provided
through exceptionally personal and innovative public service. We recognize and respect
diversity of cultures, thinking, literacy, learning styles, age, background and talents. We
recognize the value of rapidly changing technological, economic, political and social
environments, and strive to incorporate the changes wherever it is feasible and
appropriate for our library culture and operations.

Understanding library users guides our strategy:
Surveys of library customers provide insight into how people use libraries, their
expectations for service, and how they view the importance of libraries. We use this
data to ensure we are providing the most-desired services, and to benchmark our
libraries against those across the nation. National comparison positions us to meet the
needs of people moving into our county as well as the needs of current residents.

“In more than 16,000 public libraries across the U.S., librarians offer a lifeline to
people trying to adapt to challenging economic circumstances by providing
technology training and online resources for employment, access to government
resources, continuing education, retooling for new careers and starting a small
business. More than 74 percent of libraries offer software and other resources to
help patrons create resumes and employment materials, and 72 percent of
libraries report that staffs help patrons complete online job applications. Libraries
have also fueled renewed interest in and use of library services. Americans are
capitalizing on free access to books, magazines, e-books, DVDs, the Internet
and professional assistance.”
-- Maureen Sullivan, president, American Library Association, July 2012

Our environment influences our strategic plan:
Decreased Revenue – During FY2008-2013, the library cooperative suffered a
59% decrease in county-allocated dollars. From the FY08 high of $1,304,000 to
the FY13 low of $513,600, the annual budget shrank by $790,400. State Aid to
Libraries decreased 19% from $113,464 in FY2008 to $91,258 in FY2013.
Flat Economy – Successive years of economic hardship have led to residents’
increased reliance upon public resources and services, such as library internet
access, cultural programs and leisure activities, and borrowing materials rather
than purchasing for personal use.
Population Growth – In March 2013, the U.S. Census Bureau ranked the
Crestview-Fort Walton Beach-Destin Metropolitan Area as the third-fastest
growing region in the United States with a 3.6% increase in population from 2011
to 2012. Okaloosa County ranked 59th nationally in growth from 2010 to 2012;
the Census Bureau estimates county population increased by 5.1% to just over
190,000 by July 1, 2012.
Core Operations – While revenues and budgets have decreased, the needs in
our communities have not decreased. Maintaining core operations at the current
level is a challenge. Expanding services at current funding levels is not realistic.
Sustaining core operations such as facility hours, courier service, relevant
lending collections, children’s literacy programs and the technology infrastructure
are a priority.
Technology –Technologies change rapidly and frequently; there is no indication
that this will change. We rely heavily upon the internet and computers to support
core operations yet the Cooperative’s network infrastructure is aging. Outdated
hardware and software limits functionality for both staff and customers. The
public looks to libraries to provide exposure to, and training for, new
technologies.
Geography – Okaloosa residents are distant from large cities with major
museums and cultural events. Libraries play an important local role in making the
arts accessible both geographically and financially.
Focus areas of our strategic plan
TECHNOLOGY ▲ COLLABORATION ▲ CREATION
EDUCATION ▲ SPACES ▲ SERVICE ▲ AWARENESS

SUBJECT: SCS Engineers - Task Order 45 Fund Transfer
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BCC DISTRICT:
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Task Order 45 - 2012 VZA Injection and Extraction Operations -
was estimated in five separate Tasks. Task 5 - Data Assimilation and Reporting expenses
exceeded the estimated costs by $2,905. Other tasks on the project were completed below their
respective estimated costs.
BACKGROUND: During the data collection component of the project, initial results indicated
that the pilot test was producing less than desirable results. A similar pilot project at a site in
Pensacola was concluding with similar results. The reporting component of the VSA Pilot Test
was subcontracted to the University of Florida Hinckley Center (UF) who had also initiated
interest with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) for the VZA
technology. Once field work concluded and testing results indicated that the VZA technology
would not produce the desired result, it was discussed that the FDEP would forgo a full report.
However, the FDEP determined that full reporting would ultimately be required. By the time this
decision was made, several of the UF core staff on the project were no longer associated with the
project. SCS Engineers stepped up and provided the expertise to complete the report to FDEP
expectations.
Task 04 - Groundwater sampling was originally estimated at $26,792 and was completed for
$18,048.80 leaving a balance of $8,743.20. Staff recommends transferring $2,905 from Task 04
to Task 05 to cover the additional expenses incurred by SCS Engineers. Attached is the formal
request for this transfer from SCS and the project budget provided by the Okaloosa County
Finance Department.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends transferring $2,904 from Task 04 to Task 05 to
cover the additional expenses incurred by SCS Engineers.

Shalimar / Port Dixie Park for a community block party.
BACKGROUND: County Ordinance #13-07 (regulation of county recreational areas, including
parks and beaches) addresses Special Events at county parks, beaches or recreational areas
within Okaloosa County.
A request was received from the Shalimar United Methodist Church Outreach Team to use a
portion of Shalimar / Port Dixie park for a picnic and movie on the lawn with other associated
activities available free to the community. They have held similar events at the park the last
four years. The Playground Area Soccer Association (PASA) has a Lease / Maintenance
Agreement with the County for the use of the park and has agreed they can accommodate this
request with their schedule. The use of electrical power for the movie will be provided at the
park. Expected attendance is up to 250 people.
In accordance with approved BCC policy, the Special Event fees have been waived due to the
non-profit status of Shalimar United Methodist Church. All required documentation has been
provided.

SUBJECT: Annual Write Off of Accounts Deemed Uncollectible
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: OCWS staff requests BCC approval for the annual write off of
accounts deemed uncollectible
BACKGROUND: The employees of Okaloosa County Water and Sewer System have worked
diligently at collecting past due final bills. However, there comes a time each year when we
must adjust the accounts to reflect estimated "uncollectibles". The past policy of the County is to
write off the accounts that are past due more than twelve months, which in this instance is
through September 30, 2012. The attempt to collect by the water and sewer department is an
ongoing process. The Collection Bureau of Fort Walton Beach, Inc. has been contracted to assist
in the collection of terminated accounts 60 days past due. The attached letter from Jodi Gates,
Financial Services Manager for the Clerk of Circuit Court, addresses the past policy of the Board
of County Commissioners. As stated in her letter, the current balance of accounts receivable for
to be written off for FY2012 as of September 30, 2013 was $240,167.64. The updated amount
after further collections since September 30, 2012 is $186,487.56 (See attached report). The
write-off will represent approximately 80% of water and sewer fees and approximately 20% will
represent third party payments collected by water and sewer. Therefore, for FY2012 the actual
write-off for water and sewer will be approximately $149,992.88 and the third party payments
will be approximately $36,494.68. The FY2012 operating revenue budget exceeded $26 million
dollars. Therefore, the total estimated uncollectible amount is equal to 0.72% of the annual
operating budgeted revenue.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommend that the Board of County Commissioners
authorize the write off of delinquent accounts in the amount of $186,487.56.

to Sunshine State One-Call of Florida service location tickets. This project continues to
authorize Constantine Engineering to perform the SSOCOF services. This project is necessary to
comply with the Underground Facility Damage Prevention and Safety Act, Florida Statute 556,
Sunshine State One-Call of Florida Requirements. The scope of services for this project includes
professional and technical services for locating, verifying, installing permanent markers, ticket
management, and line location services for responding to Sunshine State One-Call of Florida
service location tickets for components of the water and sewer systems.
This Task Order/Engineering Scope of Services negotiated with Constantine Engineering
includes the necessary work tasks to complete the scope of work and is for a not to exceed cost
of $400,000. This is an increase from FY2014 budget amount to account for the increased
number of locate tickets being received over the past 18 months. Funds are available in the
FY2015 budget. The amount spent on this Task Order is a direct reflection on the amount of
construction occurring in our service area - when a contractor digs, by law he must notify
SSOCOF, and by law the underground utilities must be marked. Staff will monitor the budget
closely. If construction continues to pick up, a Task Order Revision may be necessary.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute
Constantine Task Order 11, for a not to exceed amount of $400,000.00.

AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Jeff Littrell
SUBJECT: Constantine Task Order 12
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: OCWS staff requests BCC approval for Constantine Engineering
Task Order 12 per the terms of Contract #C13-2068-WS for a total not to exceed cost of
$125,000. Task Order 12, for Subsurface Utility Engineering Services (AKA "SUE" or
"mapping"), is attached for your review.
BACKGROUND: OCWS staff has a need for Constantine Engineering to assist the County to
perform services for collecting information and data about buried and above ground components
of the water and sewer system. The Water and Sewer Department staff uses this information and
data daily to protect the existing utilities, plan for future growth, react during emergencies to
minimize service outages, and to plan for preventative maintenance and scheduled
repair/replacement of these assets. This Task Order provides professional and technical services
for locating, verifying, installing permanent markers, and acquiring information and data for
components of the OCWS System. OCWS continues to collect information and data regarding
the water and sewer system to populate the geographic information system (GIS) and to develop
maps of the existing water distribution and wastewater collection systems.
To date, Constantine has performed these SUE services to locate, map, and document the water
and sewer assets associated with approximately 558 miles of water lines, 115 miles of sewer
force mains, and 30 miles of gravity sanitary sewer. Greater than 23,750 water and sewer assets,
including buried pipelines, fittings, valves, water meters and fire hydrants have been located,
mapped using sub-meter accuracy and uploaded into the County's GIS data base. This accurate
information about the existing system allows the County to maximize the capacity of the existing
systems to meet current and future demands while minimizing the investment in new assets. The
County's engineering staff and consultants rely on this information to evaluate the availability of
water and sewer services and their capacity to deliver these services to existing and new
customers.
Accurate, up-to-date information, data and maps enable the Water and Sewer Department to
more efficiently identify, mark, and therefore protect the County’s water and sewer assets.
Every year, careless construction activities damage buried water and sewer pipelines and valves.
Up to-date maps allow the County to react quickly during emergencies to isolate damaged areas
from the rest of the system and thereby minimize the impacts of system outages on other non-
affected customers. Accurate information that is easily assessable will improve the ability of
staff to protect these assets.
This Task Order/Engineering Scope of Services negotiated with Constantine Engineering
Packet Pg. 366
includes the necessary work tasks to complete the scope of work and is for a not to exceed cost
of $125,000.00. Funds are available in the approved FY2015 budget for this task order. This is
a 50% reduction from the FY2014 budget amount for this category of work.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommends BCC approval to authorize the Chairman
to execute Task Order 12 with Constantine Engineering, Inc. for a not to exceed amount of
$125,000.00.

These services have been procured in accordance with County purchasing policies. Two vendors
responded to the Purchasing Department’s request for quotes:
iMap NewMarket
Software Development $9,800 $9,170
Annual License Fee $1,960 $5,110
First-Year Total $11,760 $14,280
iMap’s proposal includes payment of 33% of the $9,800 software development cost along with
the first year’s $1,960 license fee upon agreement acceptance. The balance of 67% of the $9,800
software development cost will be invoiced upon completion and acceptance of the project.
Pursuant to Section E.700(2) of the Tourist Development Department Operations and Procedures
Manual, no advancement of funds will be issued unless specifically approved by the Board.
Pursuant to the State Chief Financial Officer’s Reference Guide for State Expenditures, advance
payment may be made if the payment results in savings equal to or greater than the amount
earned by investing the funds and paying later or if the payment is essential to the operations of
the agency and the goods or services are available only if advance payment is made. In this
particular case, the services of the lowest-priced vendor are available only if advance payment is
made.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Sunil Harman
SUBJECT: Stipulation for American Airlines for satisfaction of bankruptcy pre-
petition claims
DEPARTMENT: Airport
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Department of Airports requests that the Okaloosa Board of
County Commissioners approve a Stipulation and Settlement of Claims for American Airlines.
BACKGROUND: As it relates to American Airlines Bankruptcy matters, the salient facts are as
follows:
• American Airlines as part of its bankruptcy filing published schedule # 2040598 on
2/27/2012 for $32,730.88 in favor of Okaloosa Regional Airport as claimant.
• Northwest Florida Regional Airport formerly known as Okaloosa Regional Airport
filed claim # 2090 on 4/11/2012 for $32,314.31.
• Invoices that comprise a schedule of payments covered the period and invoices save
adjustment for partial payment on the post-petition portion of invoices show that the
debt was cured.
• However, a name change of the airport from Okaloosa Regional Airport to Northwest
Florida Regional Airport during the ensuing period resulted in confusion and the
claim being listed as a continued indebtedness.
• Scheduled claim # 2040598 was not matched to claim # 2090 due to two different
names being used for Northwest Florida Regional Airport.
• Claim # 2090 was expunged on or around April 5, 2013 in connection with a lease
cures payment paid to the airport which resolved the claim as verified by a payment
schedule rum of the time-frame from the Clerk's office.
• The stipulation and settlement of claims is necessary for the airline to have the court
discharge the bankruptcy obligation.
OPTIONS: Approve, Deny or Table the requested recommendation.
RECOMMENDATIONS: The Department of Airports recommends that the Okaloosa Board of
County Commissioners approve the Airline requested stipulation and settlement. As the pre-
petition
claim has been cured and the stipulation is necessary for the airline to seek discharge from the
bankruptcy court. Furthermore, the airline is current and in good standing with the County.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Turner
SUBJECT: OC Admin Building C.O. #4
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: 2
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: (FM) Requests BCC approval of Change Order 14-04 to the D-B
Contract for the new Okaloosa County Administration Building in the amount of $4,024,754.21.
BACKGROUND: The demolition of the five main buildings of the former Shalimar Courthouse
Annex is nearly complete. The debris pile is shrinking as the remnants from the demolition
activities are being hauled away. The construction of the new administration building is about to
begin in earnest.
To keep the construction of the new building on track to be completed sometime around mid-
August of 2015, the Design-Build team needs BCC approval to the asbestos abatement contract
for the abatement of some additional materials that were discovered during the abatement
activities and to enter into several new contracts for the construction of the new building. Those
contracts are for the site work package, concrete package, masonry package, and the structural
steel package.
At previous BCC meetings, the Board has given approval for the D-B contractor to move
forward with letting certain portions of the project out for bids. The results of those bids are
represented in this change order. This is not a funding request, it's a request for BCC approval
for the contractor to enter into the contracts represented by this Change Order.
RECOMMENDATIONS: (FM) Requests BCC approval of Change Order 14-04 to the D-B
Contract for the new Okaloosa County Administration Building in the amount of $4,024,754.21
and authorize the Chairman to execute all related documents.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Turner
SUBJECT: SO Reno - BT to SO
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: 4
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: (FM) Requests BCC approval to transfer the remaining Renovation
Project Budget of $123,058.48 to the Sheriff's Budget to offset costs associated with the
renovation.
BACKGROUND: At the February 4, 2014, BCC meeting, the Board approved a budget of
$150,000 to renovate portions of the Sheriff's Shalimar administrative building to provide
operating space for the three SO units remaining at the former annex. The remaining operations
had to be out of the former annex by May 5th to allow the new construction to begin. That goal
was accomplished.
As the space at the Sheriff's site was renovated, it became clear that some new work stations and
other furniture would be needed to optimize the utility of the renovated space. The Sheriff
proceeded to purchase the needed furniture believing that those purchases were part of the
renovation. However, the Board's action on February 4th didn't specifically address FF&E for
the renovation project.
As evidenced by the attached spreadsheet, the Sheriff has submitted over $119,000 worth of
receipts for expenses incurred for the renovation. Some of these receipts predate the Board's
funding of the renovation project. Sheriff's staff have said that they still have over $30,000
worth of receipts that have not yet been submitted for reimbursement. Combined, the receipts
exceed the amount of funds remaining in the renovation budget.
Staff recommends that the $123,058.48 remaining in the Capital Outlay (301-3160-562248) be
transferred to the Sheriff's budget to offset the Sheriff's expenses related to the renovation
including those expenses for the renovation that predate the Board's approval of the funding on
February 4, 2014.
RECOMMENDATIONS: (FM) Requests BCC approval to transfer the remaining Renovation
Project Budget of $123,058.48 to the Sheriff's Budget to offset costs associated with the
renovation.

SUBJECT: Approval of Site Survey Expense for SO Building
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: 4
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: (FM) Requests BCC approval of the Site Survey Expense for the new
SO Building that predates the letting of the Design Services and CM contracts.
BACKGROUND: In 2013, the Board made a major shift in the future use of the former Shalimar
Courthouse Annex. The current buildings were going to be demolished and a new building
meeting the current and future need was to be constructed. Originally, the Sheriff's operation
that were currently located at the old annex were to be incorporated into the new space. Lord &
Son had the construction contract for the work at the annex.
After a few discussions with the work group, it became clear that a better option might be to
renovate a portion of the current space at the Sheriff's Shalimar campus and to build a new
10,000 + s.f. building to provide space for all the Sheriff's operations at the annex and in rented
space. The BCC agreed with that recommendation.
Lord & Son proceeded to begin work on the Sheriff's new building, believing that their contract
at the old annex that included providing space for Sheriff's operations in the new building carried
over to providing that space at the Sheriff's campus. They hurried into action on the Sheriff's
new building before it was determined that the new building at the SO campus was a separate
project and had to be bid out. During the time leading up to this determination, Lord & Son had
ordered a site survey from Choctaw Engineering in November 2013. Lord & Son was successful
in being awarded the CM contract for the Sheriff's building through the competitive bidding
process.
At the time Lord & Son ordered the site survey, they believed that they were authorized to do so.
Choctaw performed the work believing that Lord & Son was authorized to act on the county's
behalf in the matter. All actions taken were done in good faith and without any intent to hide any
action or to deceive the BCC or any person in the doing of it.
The quote for the site survey services from Choctaw was for $1950. The county would have had
to order the work done as a normal part of the new building project, if it had not already been
done under an unauthorized request. Therefore, staff recommends the BCC approve payment of
$1950 to Choctaw Engineering for the site survey performed at the Sheriff's Shalimar campus
that is already completed (quote attached).
RECOMMENDATIONS: (FM) Requests BCC approval of the Site Survey Expense in the
amount of $1950 for the new SO Building that predates the letting of the Design Services and
Packet Pg. 589
CM contracts and authorize paying Choctaw Engineering for the work already done from Capital
Outlay Fund - Capital Projects Reserves or other such funding as the Board my choose.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 2, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Kay Godwin
SUBJECT: Human Resources Policy Manual Updates
DEPARTMENT: Human Resources
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request BCC approval of the Human Resources Policy Manual
changes identified on the attached pages and outlined below. Changes are clearly identified
with strikeout for deleted language and underline for new language.
BACKGROUND: The Human Resources Policy Manual requires periodic updates to remain
current and relevant. Below is a brief synopsis of the changes in the order they appear on the
attachment.
Code of Conduct and Outside Employment & Contractual Relationships - In the December 2013
Auditor General Report, it was recommended that Okaloosa County "enhance its policies and
procedures, as needed, to identify and prevent potential conflicts of interest." This policy is
intended to define what constitutes a conflict of interest, the steps employees must take to
disclose an actual or perceived conflict of interest and reiterates the requirements as outlined in
112.313 Florida Statutes. These revisions have been reviewed and approved through
management staff and the County Attorney.
Fluid Positions - During the FY15 budget process, Fleet Operations requested the creation of a
Certified Equipment Technician. This policy change allows for the addition of the Certified
Equipment Technician to fall within the already existing Equipment Technician/Master
Equipment Technician fluid position structure. Traffic Operations has also requested during the
FY15 budget process the reclassification of the Traffic Signal Technician and Senior Traffic
Signal Technician positions to Traffic Signal Technician I and Traffic Signal Technician II
positions, respectively. This policy change would allow for these positions to be considered fluid
and the employee's classification would be based on the level of certification they hold.
Drug-Free Workplace Policy - Request modification of the drug testing policy to be consistent
with provisions of a drug free workplace program as prescribed by Florida Statutes Chapter 440;
specifically, the definition of job applicant for a public employer. Applicants for safety sensitive
positions will successfully complete a pre-employment drug test prior to beginning employment.
OPTIONS: Approve/Provide other direction as needed.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the Code of Conduct and Outside Employment & Contractual
Relationship policy changes effective September 2, 2014. Approve the following policy changes
to be effective September 29, 2014: Fluid Positions Policy, provided the FY15 budget is
approved to implement the affected positions; and Drug-Free Workplace Policy.

working environment, we have implemented a pre-employment drug testing policy.
AllSafety-sensitive job applicants shall undergo screening for the presence of illegal
drugs as a condition of employment. Safety-sensitive Jobjob applicants will be required
to voluntarily submit to a urinalysis test at a laboratory chosen by the County after
signing a consent and release form. Safety-sensitive Jobjob applicants must
successfully pass the drug screen urinalysis prior to beginning work.
The County will not discriminate against applicants for employment because of past drug
abuse. This Drug-Free Workplace Policy concerns current abuse of drugs that may
prevent employees from properly and safely performing their job duties.
All testing will be done by certified laboratories. All test results will be checked by a MRO
to assure accuracy. All testing, sample collection, storage, handling and chain of custody
will be done in accordance with the Florida Agency on Health Care Administration rules
and regulations.

absence of six (6) months will be required to take a drug test comparable to the pre-
employment screening.
Section C – Substance and Alcohol Misuse Policy DOT FTA – For Employees Performing
Maintenance on Revenue Service Vehicles or Equipment (Revised: August 7, 2007)
7) Circumstances Requiring Testing
a) Pre-Employment Testing
Drug tests will be performed for all selected applicants. In order to be hired, an individual
must pass a drug test with a negative test result.
All applicants for safety-sensitive positions shall undergo urine drug testing prior to hire
or transfer into a safety-sensitive position.
All offers of employment for safety-sensitive positions shall be extended conditional upon
the applicant passing a drug test. An applicant shall not be hired into a safety-sensitive
position unless the applicant takes a drug test with verified negative results.
A non-safety-sensitive employee shall not be placed, transferred or promoted into a
Packet Pg. 598
covered position unless the employee takes a drug test with verified negative results.
If an applicant for a safety-sensitive position fails a pre-employment drug test, the
conditional offer of employment shall be rescinded.
If an employee being placed, transferred, or promoted from a non-safety-sensitive
position to a safety-sensitive position fails to pass a drug test, they shall be subject to
disciplinary action up to and including discharge.
If a test is cancelled, the applicant/employee will be required to re-test with a negative
test result. A negative dilute test result on a pre-employment test will not require a re-
test.
When a covered employee or applicant has previously failed or refused a pre-
employment drug test administered under this part, the employee must provide the
employer proof of having successfully completed a referral, evaluation and treatment
plan.
Applicants are required to report the name and contact information for all DOT covered
employers for the previous two (2) years. The applicant is required to provide a consent
statement permitting the previous DOT covered employers to release drug and alcohol
test results to the County.
If more than 90 days have elapsed between the time of successfully completing pre-
employment tests and the assignment of safety-sensitive duties, another pre-
employment test will be required prior to the individual being assigned safety-sensitive
duties.
Safety-sensitive employees who have been off duty for 90 days or more for any reason,
and have been out of the random pool, must successfully pass a pre-employment drug
test prior to the performance of a safety-sensitive function.
