Portions of this alley were vacated by Resolution No. 09-43. The McArdles’ requested vacation lies west of the previously vacated right-of-way. Mr. Autrey reported a site visit revealed an encroachment of an existing building into the unopened alley. The vacation would resolve the encroachment issue. He advised that if this request is approved, there will still be property issues to be resolved with adjoining property owners. Mr. Autrey showed photographs of the area, pointing out’ the encroachments and the centerline of the alley. He stressed the disputed property issues must be settled by the affected property owners. Mr. Robert Becker asked if the alley adjoining his property could be vacated at this time. Mr. Autrey explained the public hearing and consideration today is for a specific, advertised portion of the alley. He told Mr. Becker he and others can make a similar request. Mr. James Wahl and Mr. Robert Wahl came forward and stated the McArdles are their backdoor neighbors. Mr. Robert Wahl asked what this vacation will mean for them. Mr. Amunds answered if the request is approved, the vacated alley will be split with the adjoin property owners. Mr. Autrey added that any deal the October 15, 2013 ~6- Minute Book 70, Page 96 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Wahls make with the McArdles is a separate and private matter. Mr. Dowd commented the Board will be divesting public ownership if the vacation request is approved. Upon inquiry by Mr. Rudy Archer, Mr. Autrey said the entire 20- foot wide by 95-foot long portion of the alley was advertised for vacation. If approved, the alley will be split down the middle between adjoining property owners.

ORDINANCE NO. 13-24 PUBLIC COMMENTS RELATIVE TO CURRENT AGENDA Mr. Amunds opened the floor for public comments relative to the current agenda. No one came forward. CONSENT AGENDA APPROVAL Mr. Amunds pulled Item #8 for comments.

October 15, 2013 -7- Minute Book 70, Page 97 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners 13. Approval and authorization for Chairman to execute a resolution to refund 2003 Airport Bond and a Florida Association of Counties Commercial paper loan and schedule a related public hearing Mr. Parisot stated that he has spoken with Sunil Harman, Mark Galvin, and Mark Mustian on this agenda item and said he would like for it to be tabled. He recommended consideration be given to bank financing rather than issuance of bonds, saying he believes the county will save a substantial amount of money. Mr. Amunds asked if there are any problems with pulling this item from consideration. Mr. Sunil Harman, Airports Director, requested the process continue and not be tabled. He advised there are potential problems with seeking a bank loan because the county does not own the property but has a 25-year lease. Mr. Harman said he has also spoken with Mark Galvin, Financial Advisor with First Southwest, and there is no certainty commercial institutions will be interested. Further, he said it would require a formal Request for Proposals (RFP) to obtain a guaranteed proposal. Mr. Harman stated banks typically look at a ten-year term while the bond issue would be for 17 years. He noted there would also be closing costs and fees with a bank loan. Upon inquiry by Mr. Windes, Mr. Harman stated he has been in the airports business for 26 years and has financed projects totaling $4.5 Billion. Mr. Harris commented the county has nothing to collateralize. Mr. Dowd said a statement was made the bank would rely on the full faith and credit of the county and that is not something we will give. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Windes, to approve Item #13 and to provide staff with instruction to review alternatives. Mr. Parisot expressed concern about the number of blanks in the exhibits attached to the proposed resolution. Mr. Mark Mustian, attorney with Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, reported this is a delegate award issue. The Chairman and Clerk will be asked to sign documents when certain parameters are reached. He advised a public hearing must be held because part of the bonds were used for private purposes. Mr. Amunds commented that as Chairman he will not sign anything until all blanks are filled and the County Attorney reviews the final documents. 5 yeas. RESOLUTION NO. 13-148 October 15, 2013 ~8- Minute Book 70, Page 98 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners #19. Request to rebid Misdemeanor Probation Services Contract and appoint review committee Currently, Judge Patterson Maney, Commissioner Parisot, and Trial Court Administrator Robin Wright have been suggested for the review committee.

Award contract for State Lobbyist Services to the Advocacy Group Mr. Parisot stated the proposed contract with the Advocacy Group is for one year with two optional one-year renewals. He said they have worked for the county for three years and he sees value in having a long-term contract. Mr. Parisot made motion to amend the term of contract to three years with two optional one-year extensions. Mr. Boyles stated he is more comfortable with the one-year term and cannot support the proposed change to the contract. Mr. Parisot pointed out there are still provisions to terminate the contract even if it is changed to a three-year term.
