What happens at
Arbennie Pritchett Water
Reclamation Facility?
Wastewater treatment is a
biological process where
natural bacteria and
microorganism
breakdown(consume) organic
material and nutrient typically
found in raw wastewater.
Wastewater enters into the APWRF at the pretreatment or “headworks” where grit and garbage(inorganic
material) is removed. From there it enters the bio-reactor tanks(carrousels) where bacteria and
microorganisms await in abundance to consume nutrient and organic rich wastewater. The complete process
provides a clarified product(reclaimed water) which is sent to a golf course for irrigation and to designated
absorption fields. A computer SCADA system(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) provide monitoring
and control of the process. A state certified lab provides quality control/quality assurance testing and
analytical services required by the State.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 20, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Jeff Littrell
SUBJECT: Approval To Authorize OCWS To Construct The East County Force Main
And Repump Station Project
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: In accordance with Chapter 255, Public Property and Publicly
Owned Buildings, Florida State Statues (F.S), Section 255.20, Local bids and contracts for public
construction works; specification of state-produced lumber, the BCC must hold a public meeting
to discuss the County’s proposal to construct a new 20 inch diameter force main and a new 4.2
million gallon per day repump station to serve the East County service area using Okaloosa
County Water and Sewer Department (OCWS) staff and equipment. 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. On the
attached maps, this project is depicted as Phases 9 and 10.
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 was
available for the public to view at our office anytime between the Public Notice and the Public
Meeting. The cost includes material, labor (with fringe/insurance), 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
Packet Pg. 12
earlier, Section 255.20 F.S., Local bids and contracts for public construction works; specification
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.
F.S. 255.20 states that before the project can be constructed using the County’s forces, the
County must hold a properly advertised public meeting to discuss the project and then the BCC
must vote to approve the County constructing the project using its own forces. The meeting has
been advertised as required. OCWS will discuss the project, the estimated cost and timing of the
project as well as issues regarding why it is in the public's best interest to perform the project
using the County’s own services, employees and equipment. In short, by self-performing this
project with in-house crews, staff believes we can get it done better, faster, and more economical
than the alternatives.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff requests BCC approval to authorize OCWS to construct the
East County Force Main and Repump Station Project using OCWS staff and equipment, as
supplemented in accordance with County Ordinances and State Statutes.

meeting as required by section 225.20, Fla. Stat. The purpose of the public meeting

DON W. HOWARD
CLERK OF THE CIRCUIT COURT, OKALOOSA COUNTY, FLORIDA
April 23, 2014
To the Citizens of Okaloosa County:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of Okaloosa County, Florida for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2013, is respectfully submitted. This report was prepared by the Finance
Department under the supervision of the Clerk of the Circuit Court. Responsibility for both the
accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all
disclosures, rests with the Finance Department. This report contains four major sections: the
Introductory, the Financial, the Statistical and the Compliance Sections.
The County prepares the basic financial statements to meet the requirements of Governmental
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements - and Management’s
Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local Governments (GASB 34) reporting model requiring
the County to report in five parts, including, Management?s Discussion and Analysis,
Government-wide Financial Statements, major Fund Financial Statements, Budgetary
Comparisons for certain funds and the Notes to the Financial Statements.
The report consists of management?s representations concerning the finances of the County.
Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all
of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these
representations, management of the County has established a comprehensive internal control
framework that is designed both to protect the government?s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and
to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the County?s financial statements
in conformity with GAAP. Because the costs of internal controls should not outweigh their
benefits, the County?s comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide
reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material
misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this
financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.
The County?s financial statements have been audited by the certified public accountants of the firm
of Warren Averett, LLC. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance
that the financial statements of the County for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, are free
of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. The independent auditors concluded, based upon the audit, that
there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion that the County?s financial
statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, are fairly presented in conformity with

GAAP. The report of independent accountants is presented as the first component of the financial
section of this report.
Okaloosa County is a non-charter county established under the Constitution and the Laws of the
State of Florida. This Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) includes the funds of the
primary government (the Board of County Commissioners, the Clerk of the Circuit Court, the
Property Appraiser, the Sheriff, the Supervisor of Elections and the Tax Collector).
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
Okaloosa County is one of Florida's
youngest counties, created in 1915 by
an act of the state legislature.
Okaloosa County is located in the
Northwest Florida Panhandle and the
City of Crestview, near its
geographical center, is the County
seat. The April 2013 population was
188,349, concentrated most heavily
near its southern boundary on the
Gulf of Mexico.
Occupying a large portion of
Okaloosa County is one of the
world's largest military reservations.
Established in 1935, Eglin Air Force Base covers over 724 square miles in Okaloosa and two
neighboring counties and contains the 919th Special Operations Wing, Duke Field. Eglin Air
Force Base, the Air Armament Center, is responsible for development, acquisition, testing,
deployment and sustainment of all United States Air Force air-delivered weapons. Based upon
Eglin's wide range of activities, Eglin will continue
its major role in the defense of the United States
and in the economy of Okaloosa County. Hurlburt
Field, the headquarters of the Air Force Special
Operations Command, is also located in Okaloosa
County. Hurlburt Field occupies about 6,000 acres
in the County. The military presence is the major
income producing source for the County.
The tourism industry is the leading private income
producing source for the County. The effect of the
industry on the local economy is well above $1
billion income produced annually with the employment of 20,000+ in tourism related businesses.
The Tourist Development Council Convention Visitor?s Bureau (TDC / CVB) registered hundreds
of thousands of inquiries throughout the year. Tourists may visit Okaloosa County?s Visitor
Welcome Center for information on all local activities, area information, sightseeing and all other
things to do during their visit. More than 3.0 million visitors come to the Emerald Coast annually.
v
Packet Pg. 30
Residents and tourists in
Okaloosa County have a full
range of natural attractions
and recreational
opportunities. Mile after
mile of beautiful snow-white
beaches and emerald-green
waters attract boating
enthusiasts, swimmers,
skiers, surfers, skin-divers,
and scuba divers. Some of
the largest concentrations of
fighting game fish
congregate off Destin?s
coast. Party and charter
boats make daily runs to
favorite fishing reefs. Piers
and bridges on the Gulf of Mexico, inland bays and fresh water in lakes and streams provide
excellent fishing opportunities. Golfing, at numerous magnificent courses around the area, sailing,
and camping are other year-round activities. The hunter may try for deer, turkey, quail, dove,
duck, and wild hog in the game management areas of the northern part of the county.
The state Division of Economic
Development placed the total labor force in
Okaloosa County at 121,193 in 2013 and
the 2013 unemployment rate at 5.2 percent.
This compares favorably to the state's
annual average rate of 7.2 percent and the
national average of 7.4 percent. Okaloosa
County's cost of living is consistently
below the national average and the county
has, along with its sister counties in
Florida, no state income tax.
Seven industrial parks have been
developed with a total of over 1,100 acres
available. An industrial park near
Crestview has an 8,000-foot reinforced runway, capable of handling the largest aircraft, and it has
complete utilities and services. A municipal industrial park at Fort Walton Beach offers complete
facilities and utility services to companies supplying space-age components to the United States
Air Force.
Property valuation turned around and increased slightly this year after declining over the last
several years. The increase continues to provide the County the opportunity to maintain one of the
state?s lowest millage rates while also continuing to maintain a relatively high level of service to
County residents. Property tax values increased 1.7 percent. New construction activity in 2013
increased slightly to $125 million.

MAJOR FUNCTIONAL INITIATIVES
General Government Initiatives The County continues to study and renovate other facility space
in order to more effectively and efficiently utilize the limited governmental space available. The
immediate focus, again, is on governmental space needs now that the Annex Extension facility was
completed and the Shalimar Annex reverter clause issue was resolved at the very end of fiscal year
2013. About $55,750,000 was spent
on General Government initiatives,
or approximately 23.6% of total
expenditures, throughout the year.
Public Safety Initiatives The County
dedicates a great deal of financial
and personnel resources for public
safety initiatives. The lifeguard
and beach safety units were
enhanced during the year with
funding derived from Tourist
Development taxes. The County
Corrections Department and County
Jail continues to deal with
population increases and facility needs, also. The public safety function of the Emergency
Medical activity always stays busy providing valuable countywide service, as does the 9-1-1
operation of the county.
The Sheriff?s
operations were active
and involved in many
of these public safety
initiatives throughout
the year. The County
continued to settle into
the state-of-the-art joint
facility at Northwest
Florida State College
Emergency Operations Center(EOC) and training facility this past Fiscal Year. The facility houses
emergency staff for multiple offices from several entities of the County into this modern facility to
better protect the citizenry of the County in future disaster related events. The County funded
approximately $87,750,000 of Public Safety initiatives, or approximately 37.1% of total
expenditures, in 2013.
Physical Environment Initiatives
Physical environment initiatives
are concentrated in the areas of
water/wastewater improvements,
solid waste and stormwater. The
military, with its ever increasing
role in our area, is utilizing the
vii
Packet Pg. 32
County water/wastewater countywide service to their benefit by exploring numerous partnerships
for service. A number of water/wastewater projects and upgrades occurred throughout the year.
Solid Waste continues to place a high priority on new ideas as the County monitors and
remediates, as closure costs and long-term maintenance continue to be monitored. The County
complies with State mandates for landfill activity throughout the closed landfill facilities in the
County. Grant funds enhanced physical environment activity with the assistance from Florida
Department of Environmental Protection. About $36,500,000 was spent, plus, as always, a great
deal of capital outlay, in the area of Physical Environment initiatives, or approximately 15.4% of
total expenditures, for 2013.
Transportation Initiatives Transportation needs continue to be an area of vital importance to the
citizens of the County. Maintenance and enhancement of existing roadways and bridges continues
to be a high priority, as funds become available. Many miles of roadway were resurfaced utilizing
the “Cold Mix” and “Overlay” options that continue to be more financially feasible along with
some bridge conversion projects in 2013. The Local Option Gas Tax and the Constitutional State
Shared Gas Tax were utilized to
complete or begin construction on
many projects and other
maintenance, along with many
Emergency Watershed Projects
utilizing funds from the USDA
Emergency Watershed Program.
The area of mass transit continues
to be addressed with additional
grant-funded projects and the
ongoing service of Okaloosa
Coordinated Transportation(OCT), a nonprofit agency providing mass transportation opportunities
for citizens countywide. The Northwest Florida Regional Airport, along with the General Aviation
Airports in Destin and in Crestview at Bob Sikes, continue to be funded with fees for services,
including Passenger Facility and Customer Facility Fees, along with a significant portion of State
and Federal funding for construction activities. Projects abound at the airport operation, including,
taxiway and building renovation around the Regional Airport and taxiway and building renovation
at the Bob Sikes airport. About $32,000,000, or approximately 13.5% of total spent, was spent on
transportation expenditures in 2013.
Economic Environment Initiatives The tourism economy continues to recover and rebound after
the area suffered greatly from the devastating oil spill disaster, but with renewed effort and
changes in tourism marketing leadership record visitors travel to Okaloosa County. The 70,000
square-foot Emerald Coast Conference Center continues to provide much needed state-of-the-art
meeting space in the County for a number of events. Financial assistance to countywide citizens in
the form of housing assistance through the Community Development Corporation and assistance
related to the many veterans located in the area also are included in Economic Environmental
initiatives. Community Redevelopment agencies in several cities within the County utilize
portions of Ad Valorem Tax dollars to enhance economic development in those designated areas.
About $5,000,000 or approximately 2.1% was spent in the area of economic environment in 2013.
Human Service Initiatives The ongoing funding for human service activities by the County
included mosquito control, animal welfare, health care, Medicaid, elder services, day care service,
viii
Packet Pg. 33
mental health services and court-related child protection services expenditures. These activities,
particularly state aid for Medicare and Medicaid, account for well over half of the dollars spent in
this particular functional category. A portion of the operation of the Okaloosa County Health
Department is another human service initiative in the County. Over $4,000,000 or approximately
1.7% was spent in the area of Human Service activity in 2013.
Culture/Recreation Initiatives Several county and
city parks continue to be improved this year with
MSTU park funding. These park improvements
along with funds used to aid in the creation of
artificial reef sights for the area fishermen were
enhancements to recreational activities provided for
all citizens and tourists attracted to our area.
Tourist Development completed one beach
renourishment project this year and continues
reviewing and analyzing the beach areas needing
possible renourishment in the future. An additional
penny of Tourist Development Tax continues to be
collected to renourish all beaches within the Tourist Development boundary area. Many national
magazines proclaim the Okaloosa Island/Destin beaches as the #1 Beach in America, the #1 Beach
in the South, as well as, one of the Favorite Family Vacation spots as they have for the past several
years consecutively. The Countywide Library Cooperative continued to provide countywide
service during this year. About $15,500,000 or approximately 6.6% was spent for
culture/recreational activities throughout the year.
Future Initiatives Maintaining a high level of service the citizens expect will continue to be a major
challenge for the County. The allocation of limited resources for use on enhancements while
continuing to provide the expected services for County residents will continue to stretch somewhat
limited resources significantly. Facility and space needs continue to be a high priority for the
immediate future.
Since the Annex Extension facility has been completed, the County has turned its attention to the
renovation of the Shalimar Annex in the south end of the County, along with the review of the
Courthouse facility in the north end of the County. The primary focus of the renovation of the
Annex will be in preparation to alleviate the County of rents they pay to currently house
Constitutional and County offices.
The County will continue to monitor stormwater
needs consistent with the availability of funds.
Other major improvements in transportation will
be for ongoing and expanding airport projects and
continued evaluation of countywide transportation
systems.
Quality of life issues will continue to be debated
in the area of culture and recreation. Receipts
from the tourist development tax will continue to
provide funding for area beautification and beach
ix
Packet Pg. 34
maintenance, to enhance environmental protection efforts, and to promote tourism in the area.
Recreation activities will continue to flourish with funding made available through tourist
development and boating improvement funds, pursuing additional grant funds and any other
resource the County deems applicable to this critical area of quality of life.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Readers of this report are encouraged to read Management?s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A).
The MD&A provides basic financial information about the County and an overview of the
County?s activities. The government-wide financial statements, consisting of a statement of net
assets and a statement of activities, provide a comprehensive financial picture of the County, split
between governmental activities and business-type activities. These statements are prepared using
the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, where all assets,
liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the County are reported. The fund financial statements
provide information concerning the County?s funds and are prepared from the County?s accounting
records. The County?s accounting records for general governmental operations are maintained on a
modified accrual basis, with revenues being recorded when available and measurable and
expenditures being recorded when the services or goods are received and the liabilities are
incurred. Accounting records for the County?s proprietary funds are maintained on the accrual
basis. The County?s fiscal year is October 1 to September 30.
Section 11.45, Florida Statutes, requires an annual audit of all County agencies. The County has
directed that the annual audit be more extensive than that required by Florida Statutes by requiring
that the annual audit be a single audit covering all the funds and account groups of the County.
This requirement has been complied with, and the unqualified opinion of the auditors has been
included in this report.
AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded
a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the County for its
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
The Certificate of Achievement is a prestigious national award, recognizing conformance with the
highest standards for presentation of state and local government financial reports. In order to be
awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the County must publish an easily readable and efficiently
organized comprehensive annual financial report whose contents conform to program standards,
GAAP and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report conforms to the Certificate of Achievement Program
requirements, and it will be submitted to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another
certificate.
A comprehensive annual financial report of this nature could not have been prepared without the
dedicated efforts of a considerable number of individuals. I want to especially thank the Clerk and
the entire staff of the Finance Department for their invaluable assistance in the preparation of this
report. I would also like to thank the members of the County?s independent external auditors. I
x
Packet Pg. 35
would also like to thank the Board of County Commissioners and their staff, and the other
Constitutional Officers for their personal interest and dedicated support in planning and conducting
the financial operations of the County in a responsible manner.

Management Discussion and Analysis
This discussion and analysis of Okaloosa County’s (the County) financial statements is
designed to introduce the basic financial statements and provide an analytical overview of
the County’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. This
analysis, in conjunction with additional information provided in our letter of transmittal,
should assist readers in identifying significant financial issues and changes in the County’s
financial position. In this Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), all amounts,
unless otherwise indicated, are expressed in thousands of dollars.
Financial Highlights
At the close of fiscal year 2013 the County’s assets exceeded its liabilities,
resulting in net position of $434,618. Governmental and business-type assets
exceeded its liabilities by $167,804 and $266,814, respectively.
The County’s total net position increased $755, or 0.2 percent, in comparison to the
prior year.
The County had $25,651 of unrestricted net position at the close of this year
compared to $24,147 last year that can be used to meet the County’s obligations.
Total revenues decreased ($14,145), or (7.2) percent, from $195,625 to $181,480.
Total expenses increased $3,143, or 1.8 percent, from $177,582 to $180,725.
The County’s governmental activities reported total net position of $167,804,
which is a decrease of ($7,677), or (4.4) percent, in comparison to prior year. A
deficit unrestricted net asset position of less than 1 percent exists in the
governmental activities.
The County’s business-type activities reported total net position of $266,814,
which is an increase of $8,432, or 3.3 percent, in comparison to prior year.
Approximately 9.7 percent of the total, or $25,916, is unrestricted, and thus
available for spending at the County’s discretion.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the Okaloosa
County’s basic financial statements. The County basic financial statements are comprised
of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial
statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements, as illustrated on the following page.
This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial
statements themselves.

Notes to the financial statements
Supplementary information
Government-wide financial statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad
overview of Okaloosa County’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all of the County’s assets and liabilities,
with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases
in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the County
is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government’s net position
changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as
the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash
flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will
result in cash flows in future fiscal periods.
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the County that are
principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from
other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through
user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the County
include general government, public safety, physical environment, transportation, economic
environment, human services, culture/recreation and court-related activity.
The business-type activities of the County include water/sewer services, airport services, solid
waste collection/disposal, building inspection services, emergency medical service and
conference center activities.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on Exhibit I, II-A and II-B of this
report.
Fund Financial Statements
The accounts of the County are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a
separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of
4
Packet Pg. 47
Okaloosa County, Florida
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, net position, revenues, and
expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted
for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by
which spending activities are controlled.
The County’s funds are presented in separate fund financial statements. These funds are
presented on governmental fund financial statements, proprietary fund financial statements and
a fiduciary fund financial statement. The County’s major funds are presented in separate
columns on the fund financial statements. The definition of a major fund is one that meets
certain criteria set-forth in GASB 34. The funds that do not meet the criteria of a major fund
are considered non-major funds and are combined into a single column on the fund financial
statements.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental fund financial statements are prepared on the modified accrual basis using
current financial resources measurement focus. Under the modified accrual basis, revenues are
recognized when they become measurable and available as net current assets. Although the
activity of the internal service funds is reported with the governmental activities on the
government-wide financial statements they are not combined on the government fund financial
statements.
Four of the County’s governmental funds, the General Fund, County Transportation Trust
Fund, Tourist Development Trust Fund and Capital Outlay Construction Trust Fund, are
classified as major funds. The County Transportation Trust and Capital Outlay Construction
funds have been presented as major funds at management’s discretion. All other governmental
funds are combined into a single column on the governmental fund financial statements.
Individual fund data for the non-major funds is found in combining statements presented as
supplemental financial data.
The County adopts an annual budget for all governmental funds. A budgetary comparison has
been presented for all the governmental funds, which compares not only actual results to
budget but also the original adopted budget to final budget. These budgetary comparisons for
the major governmental funds are presented as part of the basic financial statements. Non-
major governmental fund budget comparisons are presented as supplemental financial data.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary fund financial statements, like government-wide financial statements, are prepared
on the full accrual basis. Proprietary funds record both operating and non-operating revenues
and expenses. Operating revenues are those that are obtained from the operations of the
proprietary fund.
The County reports the Water and Sewer, Airport, Solid Waste and Convention Center as
major funds in the proprietary fund financial statements. The Solid Waste and Convention
Center funds have been presented as major proprietary funds at management’s discretion.
These enterprise funds are used to present the same functions that are presented in the
government-wide financial statements. The other enterprise funds are grouped together and
5

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
reported in a separate column entitled, “Other Enterprise Funds”. The internal service funds are
combined into a single column on the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual fund
data is presented in combining statements as supplemental financial data.
The internal service funds are used to account for risk management, health, including other
post employment benefits for retirees, dental and liability insurance, fleet management services
and funding of short-term compensated absence liability on a cost reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statement
Data shown on the fiduciary fund financial statement is not included in the government-wide
financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the
County’s programs. The only type of fiduciary funds the County maintains, agency funds, are
used to account for assets held by the County as an agent for individuals or other governments.
Notes to the financial statements
The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is useful for a
more complete understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund
financial statements.
Other information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also
presents certain required supplementary information concerning Okaloosa County’s
funding progress related to post employment benefits.
This report also presents combining statements for the non-major governmental and
proprietary funds and agency funds, as well as individual fund budget and actual
comparison schedules for non-major governmental funds.
Government-wide Financial Analysis
Over time, net position may serve as the most useful indicator of a government’s financial
position. At September 30, 2013, the County’s total net position or total assets less
liabilities, was $434,618. A significant portion of the County’s net position, 80.4 percent,
is identified as an investment in capital assets (such as land, buildings, equipment,
infrastructure), less related debt outstanding that was used to acquire those assets. Since
the County uses capital assets to provide services to its residents, the net position
represented by “investment in capital assets, net of related debt” are not available for future
spending. In fact, the payment of maintenance and debt service costs on those capital
assets will themselves require governmental resources. The invested in capital assets, net
of related debt balance of $349,249 decreased ($1,112) or (0.3) percent, in comparison to
the prior year.
Another portion of the County’s net position is restricted net assets which represent assets
that are subject to constraints such as by debt covenants, grantors, laws or regulations. The
6
Packet Pg. 49
Okaloosa County, Florida
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
restricted net position balance of $59,718 (13.7 percent of total net position) increased
$363 or 0.6 percent, in comparison to prior year, mainly due to decreased debt restrictions
and increased Economic Environment and increased Culture/Recreation restrictions for
Tourist Development and Convention Center activities.
Unrestricted net position is net position that is available to meet the County’s ongoing
obligations to residents, creditors, and enterprise fund customers. The unrestricted net
position balance of $25,651 (5.9 percent of total net position) increased $1,504, or 6.2
percent, in comparison to prior year although governmental unrestricted balance decreased
due to increased actuarial claim liabilities in the Self Insurance Internal Service Fund and
more restrictions, business-type activities increased due to increased activity and reduced
liabilities, especially related to debt. The deficit in unrestricted net position in the Self
Insurance Fund will be reduced significantly by approximately $3.7 million of insurance
refunds received in Fiscal Year 2014 as disclosed in Note 20 of the financial statements.
As shown on the following chart, the County reported increased balances at September 30,
2013. The components of total Net Position increased mainly due to the significant
improvement in economic activity in the business-type function related to Convention
Center early repayment of debt and overall general improvement of all business-type
activities.
The following is a condensed summary of net position for the primary government for
fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

the reduction of Operating and Capital grant activities related to housing assistance in General
Government and mass transit in Transportation. Revenues in business-type activity decreased
by ($4,998) or (6.8) percent from the prior year, mainly due to reduced capital grants and
contributions from the prior year associated with the Airport. Expenses increased by $2,726 or
2.3 percent in Governmental activities, due primarily to increased Culture/Recreation activity
for Tourist Development activity related to contributions to the City of Destin for beach
renourishment. Expenses in business-type expenses increased slightly $417 or 0.7 percent due
mainly to increased costs related to expanded activities for Emergency Medical Services
operations. Revenues in 2013 decreased from 2012 and expenses increased for the year which
caused the net position to increase slightly by 0.2 percent, from $433,863 in 2012 to $434,618
in 2013.
Governmental activities
The focus of Okaloosa County governmental funds is to provide information on near-term
inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing
the County’s financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a
useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at fiscal year end.
As of September 30, 2013, the County governmental funds reported combined fund balances
of $48,333, a decrease of ($1,611) over the prior year balances, due mainly to the use of one-
time balances in the General Fund for much needed capital, operating needs and certain
unfunded mandates utilized in order to fund those needs in the annual budget along with the
continued use of certain transportation funds for much needed capital projects.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the County. At September 30, 2013, total fund
balance in the general fund was $6,968 of which $6,595 was unassigned. The general fund
expenditures for the fiscal year exceeded revenues by $3,478, due to the continued decline in
ad valorem tax revenue and the one-time sale of property in the prior year. The Net change in
Fund Balance for the General Fund for fiscal year 2013 amounted to a decrease of ($1,455),
while the prior year showed an increase of $4,487. The decrease in fiscal year 2013 was
mainly due to the slight reduction in recurring revenue and the slight uptick in most all of the
expenditure functional categories spending pattern from the prior year.
The County Transportation Trust Fund is a special revenue fund that is used to account for
revenues and expenditures related to transportation expenditures in the County. The County
Transportation Trust Fund balance decreased ($899) from the prior year. The decrease in fund
balance occurred primarily because of the decline in local and state shared revenue support
along with an increase in transportation expenditures for reactionary capital items.
The Tourist Development Trust Fund is a special revenue fund that is used to account for the
revenues and expenditures of a portion of the Tourist Development Tax that is collected on
short-term rentals in Okaloosa County. The Tourist Development Trust Fund balance
increased over the prior year by $1,132. The increase in fund balance is primarily due to
borrowing funds for beach restoration along with a slight uptick in tax revenue and marketing
and advertising activity somewhat returning to normal trends and patterns.
The Capital Outlay Construction Fund is a capital fund that contains all general government
related capital projects related to government facilities, public safety facilities and culture and
recreation facilities. Capital Outlay’s fund balance decreased by ($273). The fund had a slight
9

decrease due to the recurring revenue for the fund diminishing to very little although the
project activity for the year decreased after many years of increased activity.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Enterprise Funds at September 30, 2013, total net position amounted to $266,814 for enterprise
funds as compared to $258,382 at September 30, 2012. Net Position balances are primarily the
result of operations and capital contributions in the Water & Sewer and Airport Enterprise
funds.
Business-type activities increased the County’s total net position by $8,432. Major components
of this increase are as follows:
The Water and Sewer Fund increased its net position by $711. Operating income was
$4,958 during the year which was greater than last year. Operating revenues increased
during the year, mainly related to the increased partnerships developed with the
military and other governmental agencies, while operating expenses, excluding
depreciation declined.
The Airport Fund increased its net position by $3,580. The Airport again had a
significant amount of capital contributions from grant and financing capital activities,
while operating income decreased slightly due mainly to operating revenues increasing
from the prior year and operating expenses decreasing significantly.
The Convention Center Fund increased its net position by $2,677. Convention Center
Operating Income increased due to slight increase in operating revenues and tourist
development tax collections increased over the prior year producing net income.
The net operating income of the enterprise funds for fiscal years 2013 and 2012, is as follows:

Budgetary Highlights
A Budget to actual statement is provided for the General Fund, along with each of the other
major special revenue funds as part of the basic financial statements. A budget column for both
the original budget adopted for fiscal year 2013 as well as the final budget is presented.
A comparison of the General Fund revenues original to the final operating budget shows an
increase of $17,118. The main area increased was a $10,332 rise in intergovernmental revenue
funded primarily from additional state and federal grants, especially related to housing
assistance, mass transit and recovery efforts assistance in economic development. A significant
portion of the increase in grants was not received or expended during the fiscal year making
the variance large. The expenditures incurred during the year were generally below budget,
except for the services primarily impacted by the need for citizen services, like physical and
economic environment. The major difference between actual and final budget totals in
expenditures were due to grants budgeted in accordance with executed documents for these
general government, public safety, capital outlay for recovery assistance and transportation,
especially related to mass transit.

Economic Factors
Local, national, and international economic factors influence the County’s revenues in a
variety of ways. Positive economic growth is correlated with increased revenues from
property taxes, state sales taxes, fuel taxes, charges for services, state revenue sharing as
well as state and federal grants, while negative economic growth generally has the opposite
reaction. Economic growth may be measured by a variety of indicators such as
employment growth, unemployment, new construction and assessed values, diversification
of the property tax base, and Enterprise Fund revenue and net asset growth.
The Florida Research and Economic Database reported that the number of
employed Okaloosa County civilian residents increased from 93,597 in 2012 to
94,042 in 2013, an increase of approximately 0.5 percent. Increasing labor force
coupled with somewhat improving economic times led to the County’s
unemployment rate falling to 5.2 percent in 2013 compared to 6.1% for 2012. The
County’s unemployment rate still remains extremely favorable compared to the
state and national rates of 7.2 percent and 7.4 percent, respectively, for 2013.
The assessed value of real property located in the County after exemptions shrank
from $13.067 billion in 2012 to $12.805 billion, while the total assessed value of
the County decreased from $13.781 billion to $13.566 billion in 2013. This
represented a decrease of ($.215) billion or (1.6) percent in property valuation.
Okaloosa County has a diversified property tax base. The ten largest property tax
payers in the County represent approximately only 3.82 percent of the total ad
valorem property tax levy.
During 2013, total value of new residential construction in the County was valued
at $121 million and total value of new non-residential construction was valued at
$30 million for a total of just $151 million in new construction. The total
construction figure for 2013 represented a $34 million increase from 2012.

RECONCILIATION OF THE GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS BALANCE SHEET
TO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
September 30, 2013
Fund balances - total governmental funds (Exhibit III-A) $ 48,333,482
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of
net position are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial
resources and therefore are not reported in the governmental funds.
Those assets consist of:
Land $ 11,241,215
Construction in progress 2,082,658
Buildings, net of $22,398,522 accumulated depreciation 49,032,908
Improvements other than buildings, net of $8,888,061

accumulated depreciation 8,473,636
Infrastructure, net of $80,672,237 accumulated depreciation 66,812,907
162,703,664
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and,
therefore, are deferred in the funds. 630,254
Internal service funds (see Exhibit VIII) are used by management to charge the costs
of certain activities, such as insurance, compensated absences and fleet
maintenance, to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of the internal service
funds are included in governmental activities in the statement of net assets. Internal
service fund net assets are: (5,082,244)
Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in
the current period and therefore are not reported in the governmental
funds. Interest on long-term debt is not accrued in governmental funds,
but rather is recognized as an expenditure when due. All liabilities, both
current and long-term are reported in the statement of net position.
Balances changed at September 30, 2013 are:
Accrued interest on bonds (832,558)
Revenue bonds payable $ (29,192,000)
Notes payable (5,000,000)

TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds (Exhibit IV-A) $ (1,610,518)
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities
are different because:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation
expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays ($5,427,895) exceed
depreciation/amortization ($8,875,916) in the current period. (See Note 5.) (3,448,021)
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current
financial resources are not reported as revenues in the
governmental funds.
Grant Revenue $ 630,254
Reversal of Prior Year Deferred Revenues (691,336)
Capital Contributions 2,346,776
Gain/Loss on Disposal of Capital Assets (367,946)
Net adjustment 1,917,748
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in the governmental funds, expenditures
are not recognized for transactions that are not normally paid with expendable available
financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, which is presented on the accrual
basis, expenses and liabilities are reported regardless of when financial resources are available.
In addition, interest on long-term debt is not recognized under the modified accrual basis of
accounting until due, rather than as it accrues. This adjustment combines the net changes of the
following balances:
Accrued interest on bonds $ (832,558)
Reversal of prior year accural of interest on bonds 799,023
Deferred debt issuance costs 39,038
Amortized deferred debt issuance costs (82,436)
Claims payable 1,474,077
Compensated Absences (67,401)
Other Post Employment Benefits (46,774)
Net adjustment 1,282,969
Some capital additions were financed through notes. In governmental funds, note proceeds are
considered a source of financing, but in the statement of net assets, note obligations are
reported as liabilities. (See Note 10.) (5,000,000)
Repayment of principal on bonds and other long-term debt is an expenditure in the
governmental funds, but the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the statement of net
assets. (See Note 10.) 713,000
Internal service funds (See Exhibit IX) are used by the County to charge the costs of certain
activities, such as insurance, compensated absences and fleet maintenance to individual funds.
The net revenue or expense of the internal service funds is reported with governmental
activities. (1,532,310)
Change in net position of governmental activities (Exhibit II-B) $ (7,677,132)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of Okaloosa County, Florida (hereinafter referred to as County) have been
prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as
applied to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-
setting body for governmental accounting and financial reporting. The County uses the Uniform
Accounting System mandated by Chapter 218.33, Florida Statutes.
The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies of the County.
A. The Reporting Entity
Okaloosa County is a political subdivision of the State of Florida, governed by a five member Board
of County Commissioners, each elected by the citizenry at large for four-year terms. The Board has
no powers other than those expressly vested in it by State Statute and their governmental powers
cannot be delegated. In addition, the Clerk of the Circuit Court, Sheriff, Tax Collector, Property
Appraiser and Supervisor of Elections are elected by the citizenry at-large and function
independently of the Board.
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these
financial statements present the Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa County (the primary
government). In evaluating the Board as a reporting entity, management has considered all potential
component units for which the Board may or may not be financially accountable and, as such, be
included within the Board's financial statements. Management utilized criteria set forth in GASB No.
61 for determining financial accountability of potential component units in evaluating all potential
component units. In accordance with GASB No. 61, the Board (primary government) is financially
accountable if it appoints a voting majority of the potential component unit's governing board and 1)
it is able to impose its will on the organization or 2) there is a potential for the organization to
provide specific financial benefit to or impose specific financial burden on the Board. In addition,
component units can be other organizations for which the nature and significance of their
relationship with the primary government are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity's
financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Board evaluated the Emerald Coast Bridge
Authority (authority) in accordance with GASB No. 61. The Authority has been dormant for several
years. The Board does not believe it is financially accountable with respect to the Authority or that
financial burden relationship exists based on an evaluation of GASB No. 61. As such, the Authority
is not included as part of the Board’s reporting entity.
B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
1. Government-Wide Statements
The government-wide financial statements include the statement of net assets and the statement of
activities. These statements display information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the primary
government and its component unit. The primary government and the component unit are reported
separately with the focus of the statements being the primary government. Individual funds are not
displayed. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes, intergovernmental
revenues, and other non-exchange transactions, are reported separately from business-type activities,
which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for
each function of the County’s governmental activities and for the different business-type activities of
the County. A function is an assembly of similar activities and may include portions of a fund or
summarize more than one fund to report the expenses and program revenues associated with a

distinct functional activity. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific
function or segment. The County does not allocate indirect expenses to functions in the statement of
activities.
Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly
benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by the programs of the County and 2) grants and
contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational activities or the construction, acquisition,
or rehabilitation of capital assets required by a particular program. These revenues are subject to
externally imposed restrictions to these program uses. The determining factor for identifying to
which function program revenue pertains is which function generated the revenue in the case of
charges for service. For grants and contributions, the determining factor is to which function the
revenues are restricted.
Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as
general revenues of the County. The comparison of direct expense with program revenues in the
statement of activities identifies the extent to which each governmental function and each business
activity is self-financing and how much they draw from the general revenues of the County.
2. Fund Financial Statements
During the year, transactions related to certain functions or activities are segregated into separate
funds in order to aid financial management and to demonstrate legal compliance. A fund is a fiscal
and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. The fund financial statements are
designed to present detail information about the County’s financial activities. Separate financial
statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even though
the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. The emphasis of fund
financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate
column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor
funds.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
1. Exchange and Non-exchange Transactions
Exchange transactions are those in which each party receives and gives up essentially equal values.
An example of an exchange transaction is a charge for service, rent, in exchange for a specific
service, use of a County building. Non-exchange transactions are those in which the County gives
(or receives) value without directly receiving (or giving) equal value in exchange. An example of a
non-exchange transaction is property tax revenue received by the County which is used to fund
various general governmental services. The revenue from these exchange and non-exchange
transactions is recognized in the financial statements in varying ways depending on the basis of
accounting used.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation - Continued
2. Government-Wide and Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement
focus. All assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of the County are included on the
statement of net assets. The statement of activities reports all revenues and expenses. Fiduciary
funds are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. The statement of fiduciary assets
and liabilities reports all assets and liabilities associated with the agency funds of the County.
Agency funds are the only type of fiduciary fund used by the County.
Government-wide financial statements are reported using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues
are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of
when the related cash flows take place. Nonexchange transactions include property taxes, grants,
entitlements, and donations. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the
fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and donations is
recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. The agency
funds of the County use the accrual basis of accounting to recognize the receivables and payables
recorded in those funds.
The effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements
except for interfund services provided and used. Elimination of those charges would distort the
direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned on the statement of
activities.
3. Governmental Fund Financial Statements
All governmental funds are accounted for using a flow of current financial resources measurement
focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included
on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances reports
the sources (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and uses (i.e., expenditures and other
financing uses) of current financial resources. This approach differs from the manner in which the
governmental activities of the government-wide financial statements are prepared. Governmental
fund financial statements therefore include reconciliations with brief explanations to better identify
the relationship between the government-wide statements and the governmental fund statements.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the modified accrual basis of accounting.
Under this method, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become
both measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be
determined and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to
be used to pay liabilities of the current period. The County considers all revenues reported in the
governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual are sales tax, gasoline taxes and other intergovernmental
revenues collected and held by the state at year end on behalf of the County, special assessments,
licenses, interest revenue and charges for service. Current year property taxes uncollected at the end
of the fiscal year are generally immaterial in amount and highly susceptible to uncollectibility and
are not recorded as a receivable on the balance sheet. All other revenue items are considered to be
measurable and available only when the government receives cash.

3. Governmental Fund Financial Statements - Continued
Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. Principal and interest on
general long-term debt are recorded as fund liabilities when due or when amounts have been
accumulated in the debt service fund for payments to be made in the following year. General capital
asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of general long-
term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
4. Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
The proprietary fund financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement
focus. Under this measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of the
fund are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenue, expenses and changes in equity
reports revenues and expenses. The proprietary funds are reported using the accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are
incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating
revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods
in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. All revenues and expenses
not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
Proprietary fund operating revenues, such as charges for services, result from exchange transactions
associated with the principal activity of the fund. The principal operating revenues for the
proprietary funds are fees and charges for water and sewer, airports, solid waste, inspection services,
emergency medical services, convention center, self-insurance, compensated absence debt service
and fleet internal service operations. Operating expenses for the enterprise funds, and the internal
service funds, include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation of
capital assets.
Non-operating revenues, such as subsidies and investment earnings, result from nonexchange
transactions or ancillary activities. They include property taxes, grants, entitlements, donations and
capital contributions. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal
year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and donations is recognized
in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied.
Contributions of capital in proprietary fund financial statements arise from internal and external
contributions of capital assets or from grants or outside contribution of resources restricted to capital
acquisition and construction.

5. Other Financial Statement Presentation Information
The County currently employs an indirect allocation system. An administrative service fee is
charged by the General Fund, at the direction of the Board of County Commissioners, to several
special revenue and enterprise funds to address General Fund services (finance, personnel,
purchasing, legal, technology management, etc.) provided.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide
financial statements. An exception to this general rule is the charge back of services, such as
insurance costs, vehicle maintenance, and central costs. Elimination of these charges would distort
the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.
The County reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund
This is the County’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the
general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
County Transportation Special Revenue Fund
This fund is used to account for maintenance and in-house construction of Okaloosa County
roads. These activities include road maintenance, traffic control, engineering, right-of-way
acquisition, and construction of new roadways. Funds are provided from state shared revenue
and certain gasoline taxes collected and distributed by the State of Florida.
Tourist Development Special Revenue Fund
This fund is used to account for funds received from imposition of the 5% tourist

D. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Balance
1. Deposits and Investments
Sections 28.33, 218.415, and 219.075, Florida Statutes, require the investment of surplus public
funds and prescribe the instruments in which those investments are authorized, specifically the State
of Florida Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund; SEC registered money market funds with
the highest credit quality rating; interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in qualified
public depositories as defined in s. 280.02; direct obligations of the United States Treasury, federal
agencies and instrumentalities; and securities of or other interest in certain investment companies or
investment trusts the portfolio of which is limited to obligations of the United States Government or
any agency or instrumentality thereof and to repurchase agreements fully collateralized by such
obligations. Because the County has adopted written investment policies as provided in subsection
(1) through (15) of s. 218.415, other investments may be authorized by resolution or ordinance.
Currently authorized are investments in term repurchase agreements with primary broker/dealers
collateralized in the County’s name by securities of the United States Government or any agency or
instrumentality thereof; overnight repurchase agreements with collateral held by the custodian bank
or its trust department; tax exempt bonds, notes or obligations rated in the two highest
classifications; inventory-based domestic bankers’ acceptances eligible to qualify for use as
collateral at the Federal Reserve Bank; SEC registered open-end mutual funds whose portfolios
consist of United States Government securities and repurchase agreements secured by such
securities; and Florida Local Government Investment Trust. The County adheres strictly to the
provisions of those cited Statutes and investments authorized by resolution or ordinance, as well as
with Chapter 517, Florida Statutes, which establishes registration procedures for securities and
dealers.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
D. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Balance - Continued
1. Deposits and Investments - Continued
The Board of County Commissioners maintains a cash and investment pool available for use by all
funds of the Board. Earnings from such investments are allocated to the respective funds based on
applicable cash participation by each fund. In addition, certificates of deposits, money market
accounts and debt securities can be separately maintained by several Board funds. Other elected
officials maintain similar pooled cash accounts or individual cash accounts through which their
office activities are managed.
Each fund’s portion of the pooled cash and individual deposit type investments are displayed on the
balance sheet as “cash and cash equivalents.” For purposes of these statements, all highly liquid
investments (including restricted assets) with maturity of ninety days or less when purchased are
considered to be cash equivalents.
U.S. Treasury and agency obligations with maturities of one year or less when purchased are
reported on the balance sheet at their amortized cost. Nonparticipating investment contracts,
generally certificates of deposit, are reported at cost. All other investments are reported at fair value.
The State of Florida provides regulatory oversight for the external investment pools in which the
County invests. The pools either meet the “2A-7 like” criteria of GASB 31 or value investments at
fair value. Therefore, fair value of the position in these pools is the same as the value of the pool
shares.
During 2009, the Tax Collector participated in the Florida Surplus Asset Fund Trust (“FLSAFE”)
that was established under authority of, and in conformity with, Florida Statutes 163-01; et seq.
FLSAFE began operations in February 2008 and was formed by and for Florida local governmental
entities as a means of investing funds. The State of Florida provides regulatory oversight over
FLSAFE, and FLSAFE is not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
FLSAFE is an external investment pool, and may invest in U.S. government treasury securities, U.S.
government agency securities, commercial paper and repurchase agreements with securities valued
in excess of the repurchase agreement amount. No monies were held in the FLSAFE account during
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 or September 30, 2012.
2. Receivables and Payables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods
provided or services rendered. These receivables and payables are classified as “due from other
funds or elected officials” or “due to other funds or elected officials” on the fund statement balance
sheets. Short-term interfund loans are also classified as “interfund receivables/payables.” Non-
current portions of long-term interfund loan receivables are reported as advances and are offset
equally by a fund balance reserve account that indicates that they do not constitute expendable
available financial resources and therefore are not available for appropriation. Any residual balances
outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the
government-wide financial statements as “internal balances.”
The Emergency Medical Services Enterprise, Airport, Solid Waste, and Water and Sewer Enterprise
Funds are the only funds of Okaloosa County that provide for an allowance for doubtful accounts for
trade accounts receivables. All other funds accounts receivable write offs are insignificant.

2. Receivables and Payables - Continued
Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of the date of assessment and remain in
effect until discharge by payment. Taxes are payable when levied (on November 1, or as soon
thereafter as the assessment roll becomes available to the Tax Collector). The County bills and
collects its own property taxes, as well as taxes for the County School District and taxes for
municipalities and special districts within the County in accordance with the laws of the State of
Florida. No accrual has been made for 2013 ad valorem taxes because property taxes are not legally
due until subsequent to the end of the fiscal year. Collection of taxes and remittance of them to other
governmental agencies are accounted for in the Disbursements Agency Fund of the Tax Collector.
The following is the current property tax calendar.
Lien Date January 1, 2013
Levy Date November 1, 2013
Due Date November 1, 2013
Delinquent Date April 1, 2014
Discounts of 1% for each month taxes are paid prior to March 2014 are granted.
Revenue recognition criteria for property taxes under the Governmental Accounting Standards
Board requires that property taxes expected to be collected within 60 days of the current period be
accrued. Current year taxes that are uncollected as of the end of the fiscal year are generally
immaterial in amount and highly susceptible to uncollectibility and, therefore, are not recorded as a
receivable on the balance sheet date.
3. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Inventory is valued at cost (first-in, first-out) in the governmental funds and at lower of cost (first-in,
first-out) or market in the proprietary funds. The consumption method is used to account for the
inventory. Under the consumption method, inventory items are recorded as expenditures during the
period inventory is used.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as
prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The consumption method is
used to account for the prepaid items. Under the consumption method, prepaid items are recorded as
expenditures during the period in which they are used.
4. Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of the Water and Sewer System Enterprise Fund revenue bonds, the Airport
Enterprise Fund revenue bonds and the Convention Center Enterprise Fund revenue bonds, the
Governmental Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment,
are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their use is limited by applicable bond
covenants. In addition, restricted assets include funds set aside for repayment of customer deposits
in several enterprise funds.

5. Capital Assets
Capital assets are not capitalized in the governmental funds used to acquire or construct them.
Instead, capital acquisition and construction are reflected as expenditures in governmental funds, and
the related assets are reported on the government-wide statement of net assets of Okaloosa County.
Capital assets acquired by proprietary funds are reported in those funds.
Property, plant and equipment purchased or acquired is carried at historical cost or estimated
historical cost. Contributed assets are recorded at fair market value as of the date received. The
County’s capitalization levels are $1,000 on tangible personal property and $5,000 on buildings,
improvements other than buildings and infrastructure. The Sheriff maintains a tangible personal
property inventory and uses a $1,000 capitalization level. Other costs incurred for repairs and
maintenance are expensed as incurred. General infrastructure assets acquired prior to July 1, 1980
are included in the capital asset inventory and are reported at estimated historical cost using deflated
replacement cost.
Depreciation on all assets is provided on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful
lives:
Assets Years
Buildings 10-50
Improvements Other Than Buildings 7-25
Intangibles 5
Equipment 3-7
Vehicles 2-15
Roads and Bridges 10-75
Wastewater Lines and Pump Stations 10-50
Other Infrastructure 10-50
6. Compensated Absences
The liability for compensated absences reported in the government-wide and proprietary fund
statements consists of unpaid, accumulated annual and sick leave or compensatory time balances.
The liability is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial
statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds financial statements only
if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements.
7. Accrued Liabilities and Long-Term Obligations
All payables, accrued liabilities and long-term obligations are reported in the government-wide
financial statements and the proprietary fund financial statements.
In general, governmental fund payables and accrued liabilities that, once incurred, are paid in a
timely manner and in full from current financial resources are reported as obligation of these funds.
However, compensated absences and claims that will be paid from governmental funds are reported
as a liability in the fund financial statements only to the extent that they are “due for payment”
during the current year. Bonds and capital leases are recognized as a liability in the governmental
fund financial statements when due. At the inception of capital leases reported in governmental
funds, expenditures and an “Other Financing Source” of an equal amount are reported at the net
present value of future minimum lease payments.

8. Bond Premiums, Discounts and Issuance Costs
On the government-wide statement of net assets and the proprietary fund type statement of net
assets, bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the
life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the
applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and
amortized over the term of the related debt. Unamortized losses on bonds are presented as a
reduction of the face amount of bonds payable. The Water and Sewer Enterprise Fund is the only
fund that has unamortized losses on bonds. The County has no unamortized losses on bonds as of
September 30, 2013.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts,
as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported
as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing
sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs,
whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service
expenditures.
9. Fund Balance
In the fund financial statements, GASB Statement 54 establishes fund balance classifications that
comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which a government is bound to observe
constraints imposed up on the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. Fund balance
classifications under GASB 54 are nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned.
These classifications reflect not only the nature of funds but also provide clarity to the level of
restriction placed upon fund balance. Fund balance can have different levels of restraint, such as
external versus internal compliance requirements.
Nonspendable – Comprised of amounts that are (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or
contractually required to be maintained intact. “Not in spendable form” includes items that are not
expected to be converted to cash (such as inventories and prepaid amounts) and items such as long-
term amount of loans and notes receivable, as well as property acquired for resale. The corpus (or
principal) of a permanent fund is an example of an amount that is legally or contractually required to
be maintained intact.
Restricted – Component consists of amounts constrained for a specific purpose by external parties,
constitutional provision, or enabling legislation.
Committed – Component consists of amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes
determined by a formal action, in the form of ordinances, of the Board, the highest level of decision
making authority. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the board taking the same formal
action that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned – Component consists of amounts that are constrained by the County’s intent to be used for
specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by (a) the Board of
County Commissioners or (b) a body (for example: a budget or finance committee) or official to
which the County has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes.
This indicates that resources in those funds are at a minimum, intended to be used for the purposes
of that fund. The Board has delegated to the County Administrator and Finance Officer in
accordance with the County’s fund balance policy.

9. Fund Balance - Continued
Unassigned – Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification of the general fund. This
classification represents spendable fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds and that
has not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific purposes within the general fund.
Unassigned fund balance may also include negative balances for any governmental fund if
expenditures exceed amounts restricted, committed, or assigned for those specific purposes.
Designations of fund balance, if any, represent tentative management plans that are subject to
change. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the policy of the
Board to use restricted resources first, and then unrestricted resources as they are needed. In
circumstances when an expenditure is made for a purpose for which amounts are available in
multiple fund balance classifications, fund balance is generally depleted in the order of restricted,
committed, assigned, and unassigned. The County does not have a formal minimum fund balance
policy. However, the Board does target 10% of the General Fund budget to set aside for reserves
during the annual Budget Policy meeting.
10. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2 – STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
A. BUDGETARY INFORMATION
Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Annual
appropriated budgets are adopted for all governmental and proprietary funds; however, budgets for
proprietary funds are not required to be reported on and are not included in these financial statements. All
appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end. Budgetary data reflected in the financial statements are established
by the following Board procedures.
On or about June 1 of each year, proposed budgets are received by the Board of County Commissioners
from its department heads, from all other constitutional officers, and from other agencies requesting
funding for the ensuing fiscal year. These proposed expenditures, along with all estimated receipts, taxes to
be levied, and balances expected to be brought forward are considered by the Board of County
Commissioners in a series of workshops beginning on or after July 15. The Board of County
Commissioners requires such changes as deemed necessary, sets proposed millages and establishes dates
for tentative and final public budget hearings as prescribed by Florida Statutes. Proposed budgets are
advertised in a newspaper of general circulation in the County. Public hearings are conducted in Crestview
and Shalimar for the purpose of receiving input, responding to complaints and providing reasons and
explanations for intended actions to all citizens participating.
In the event the final budget has not been adopted by October 1, the beginning of the fiscal year, Florida
Statutes provide for expenditures based on the adopted tentative budget or the Board re-adopts its prior
year’s adopted final budget, as amended, and expends monies based on that budget until such time as its
tentative budget is adopted pursuant to law. The final appropriations budget is adopted by resolution of the
Board of County Commissioners.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 – STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY – CONTINUED
A. BUDGETARY INFORMATION - CONTINUED
Florida Statutes require that the individual budgets of several of the constitutional officers must be
approved by the State of Florida. The “fee” portion of these budgets is not a part of the appropriations
budget passed by the Board of County Commissioners. The budgetary information shown in these
financial statements includes the entire budget for each constitutional office. The level of budgetary control
(that is the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed appropriations) has been established at the
fund level. The County Administrator is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within departments of a
fund and between departments of a fund; however, the Board of County Commissioners must approve any
revisions that alter the total expenditures of any fund. Each constitutional officer is authorized to make line
item transfers but must request approval from the Board for increases in appropriations.
Budget amounts are originally adopted amounts as amended by action of the Board of County
Commissioners by revision of fund totals. Supplemental budgetary appropriations of $20,048,779
representing a 10.10 % increase over the original adopted budget were necessary during the fiscal year. All
amendments to originally adopted amounts were made in a legally permissible manner.
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, encumber contracts and other commitments for the
expenditure of resources are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is
employed in the governmental funds. Encumbrances at fiscal year-end do not constitute expenditures since
the commitments will be honored during the subsequent year.
B. DEFICIT FUND BALANCE/NET POSITION
The Solid Waste Enterprise Fund reported deficit net position of $1,473,140 as of September 30, 2013.
The deficit is caused by changes in reporting closure costs and long-term care costs for the solid waste
landfills of the County. Further description of these costs and methods of funding them are discussed in
Note 7.
The Self Insurance Internal Service Fund reported deficit net position of $4,363,695. Claim liabilities for
workers’ compensation, general and automobile liabilities and property damage are funded by actuarially
projected budget requirements for expected yearly cash payouts. This funding method results in a deficit
fund equity which will be charged back to the other funds over a reasonable period of time so that service
fund revenues and expenses will be equal.
The Sheriff’s Self-Insurance Fund is reflecting a deficit net position of $955,902. This is the result of the
implementation of GASB 45 which requires the unfunded liability for future employee benefits (OPEB) to
be recorded at September 30, 2013.
NOTE 3 – DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS
Deposits
The County maintains a cash and investment management pool in which each fund participates on a dollar
equivalent and daily transaction basis. The County’s cash and investment management pool is considered
to be cash equivalent for reporting purposes because it is an internally managed fund, which allows
individual funds to, at any time, deposit additional cash or make withdrawals without prior notice or
penalty. The County’s cash and investment management pool includes pooled cash maintained in interest-
bearing demand deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, and pooled investments of the Local Government

Surplus Trust Fund. Interest income (which includes unrealized gains and losses) is distributed monthly
based on balance at date of distribution.
Custodial Credit Risk. The County maintains its deposits only with qualified public depositories as
defined in Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. The provisions of this statute generally require public funds to be
deposited in a bank or savings association designated by the State Chief Financial Officer as a “Qualified
Public Depository”. All qualified public depositories must maintain deposit insurance. They also must
place with or in the name of the Chief Financial Officer of the State of Florida, collateral in the amount of
the greater of the average daily balance of public deposits multiplied by the average monthly balance of
public deposits or 125 percent of the average daily balance of public deposits greater than capital.
Collateral requirements may be increased according to statute if specified conditions exist. Eligible
collateral includes federal, federally-guaranteed, state and local government obligations and corporate
bonds. In the event of default by a qualified public depository excess losses over insurance and collateral
will be recovered through assessments to all qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository
in default. Under this method, all County deposits, including certificates of deposit, are considered fully
insured.

* Fund B cash holdings are being distributed to participants as they become available from maturities, sales
and received income. The investment objective for Fund B is to maximize the present value of the
distributions.
State Statutes and the formal investments and portfolio policies adopted by the Board of County
Commissioners restrict the types of investments that can be made by the County. A description of the
requirements and the types of investments allowed as well as information about valuation and other
investment policies can be found in Note 1.D.1.
The investment policy manual details the methods used to manage the risks inherent to the investment
process. The authority for investment of County funds rests with the Clerk of the Circuit Court who has
delegated management of the investment program to the Finance Director. Investments can only be made
by majority vote of the investment committee appointed by the Clerk. Although the policies allow
investments in many types of instruments, the investment committee has chosen to limit investment risks
by investing mainly in allowed investment pools. The pools are 2a7-like investment pools and manage
interest rate risk by limiting the weighted average maturity of their portfolios, manage credit risk by
investing in mainly governmental and other highly rated securities, manage concentration of credit risk by
limiting investment in any one issuer to less than 5% of the portfolio and manage custodial credit risk by
requiring collateral for investments held by counterparties.
Interest rate risk. In accordance with the investment policy, the exposure to declines in fair value of
investments outside of the pools is managed by matching the investments to a specific cash flow
requirement. The repurchase agreement and instrumentalities are matched to the timing of required debt
service payments.
On November 29, 2007, the State Board of Administration implemented a temporary freeze on the assets
held in the Florida Local Government Investment Trust Pool due to an unprecedented amount of
withdrawals from the Fund coupled with the absence of market liquidity for certain securities within the
Pool. On December 4, 2007, based on recommendations from an outside financial advisor, the State Board
of Administration restructured the Pool into two separate pools. Pool A consisted of all money market
appropriated assets, and Pool B consisted of assets that either defaulted on a payment, paid more slowly
than expected, and/or had any significant credit and liquidity risk.
Credit risk. As of September 30, 2012, Standard & Poor’s rated the investment in Florida Local
Government Investment Trust investment pool AAAf, Florida Local Government Investment Day to Day
AAAm, Florida Local Government Surplus Fund Trust AAAm, and STI Classic Institutional Cash
Management AAAm. The Florida Local Government Surplus Fund Trust Fund B investment pool was not
rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating agency as of September 2013. As of September 30,
2013 all U.S. Instrumentalities held by the County were rated AAA. The investment policies of the County
manage credit risk by limiting investments in U. S. Instrumentalities to the two highest ratings issued by
nationally recognized statistical rating organization.
Concentration of credit risk. The investment policies of the County diversify the portfolio by limiting the
maximum percentage of various types of investments that can be purchased. The investment policy
maximum percentages for the current portfolio are 50% for U.S. agencies and instrumentalities and 50%
for repurchase agreements. More than 5% of the County’s investments are in the Federal Home Loan

NOTE 7 - LANDFILL CLOSURE AND POST CLOSURE CARE COSTS
The Board is required to study, estimate, and certify to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency through
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection the estimated cost to close and to perform certain
maintenance and monitoring functions at Baker Landfill and Wright Landfill for thirty years after closure
and Niceville Landfill for twenty years after closure. One hundred percent of the landfill capacity has been
used in the landfills and they have all been permanently closed.
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection approved termination of long-term care at the
permanently closed Laurel Hill Landfill effective September 25, 2006.
The Board is required by state and federal laws and regulations to develop its estimates using rates normal
to commercial contracting firms and is based on the amount of the landfill capacity used to date, 100%.
The landfill closure and post closure costs are reevaluated each year. The estimate is subject to changes
resulting from inflation, deflation, technology, or changes in applicable laws or regulations. The effect of
this change in estimates has been reflected in the operations of the Solid Waste Enterprise Fund and has
increased net income by $178,106. The estimated liability for landfill closure and post closure care costs
has a balance of $3,401,208 as of September 30, 2013.

NOTE 14 - PENSION PLAN
Florida Retirement System
Plan Description
Okaloosa County contributes to the Florida Retirement System (FRS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer
defined benefit pension plan administered by the State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of
Management Services. The FRS provides retirement, disability or death benefits to plan members or their
designated beneficiaries. Florida Statutes Chapter 121 provides the authority under which benefit
provisions are established. The provisions may only be amended by legislative action.
Beginning in 2002, a defined contribution plan alternative to the existing defined benefit plan known as the
Public Employee Optional Retirement Program or the FRS Investment Plan became available to FRS
members. Members in either plan who have reached normal retirement age may retire and continue
employment with the County for up to 60 months. During that period the member’s retirement benefits
accumulate in the FRS Trust Fund increased by a cost-of-living adjustment each July and earned interest at
an annual rate of 6.5%. The FRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial
statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained on the State of Florida
Department of Management Services website at www.dms.myflorida.com.
FRS Plan Changes
Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100 that made substantive changes to the
Florida Retirement System (FRS). The new Bill requires all FRS Investment and Pension Plan members
(except those in Deferred Retirement Option Program, DROP) to now pay a 3% employee contribution, on
a pretax basis, beginning on or after July 1, 2011. Cost of living adjustments (COLA) on or after July 1,
2011 are not automatic at 3%, but based on total years of service earned prior to July 1, 2011 to total years
of service at retirement, multiplied by 3%.
New members enrolling into FRS for the first time after July 1, 2011 will be subject to additional changes
including 1) an increased vesting period from 6 years to 8 years, 2) a change calculation of benefits using
Average Final Compensation (AFC) on the highest eight years of compensation as compared to highest five
years. In addition, the normal retirement date for Regular, Senior Management Service, Elected Officers’,
and Special Risk Administrative Support Classes was modified to be age 65, with 8 years of service or 33
years of service regardless of age. Normal retirement for Special Risk Class members now at age 60, with
8 years of service, or 30 years of special risk class service or age 57, with 30 years of combined special risk
class service and military service. For those members participating in the DROP program, the Legislature
reduced the annual interest rate used for benefits from 6.5% to 1.3%. The funding policy relative to the
FRS plan is disclosed below.

NOTE 14 - PENSION PLAN - CONTINUED
Funding Policy
Contribution requirements of the plan are established in Florida Statutes Chapter 121 and may only be
amended by legislative action. Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100
requiring all employee members to contribute 3% to the Plan. Formerly, only employers were required to
contribute to the FRS Plan. The FRS funding policy now provides for monthly employer and employee
contributions at actuarially determined rates that, expressed as percentages of annual covered payroll are
adequate to accumulate sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. Level percentages of payroll employer
contribution rates, established by state law, are determined using the entry-age actuarial funding method. If
an unfunded actuarial liability re-emerges as a result of future plan benefit changes, assumption changes, or
methodology changes, it is assumed any unfunded actuarial liability would be amortized over 30 years,
using level dollar amounts. Except for gains reserved for rate stabilization, it is anticipated future actuarial
gains and losses are amortized on a rolling 10% basis, as a level dollar amount.
In July 2002, the Florida Legislature established a uniform contribution rate system for the FRS, which
remained in effect with the passage of Senate Bill 2100. The uniform contribution system covers both the
FRS Pension Plan and the FRS Investment Plan. Employers and employees contribute a percentage of
the total payroll for each class of FRS membership.
The current actuarially determined contribution rates expressed as a percentage of covered payrolls are for
regular employees 6.95%, special risk employees 19.06%, special risk administrative support 35.96%,
elected judges 28.28%, elected county officers 33.03%, senior management service class 18.31%, and
12.84% for the Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP). The County’s contributions to the plan for
the years ended September 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, listed below were equal to the required contributions
for the year.

Effective July 1, 2013, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 1810 that sets the employer-paid
contribution rates for both FRS and HIS system. The employer-paid contribution rate to pay the normal
costs and amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability of the FRS increased. The established rates are
based on the rates recommended in the “Blended Rate Study” associated with the 2012 Actuarial Valuation
of the FRS. The “Blended Rate Study” covers a thirty-year period, with rates adjusted annually. The
contributions will be deposited into the FRS Trust Fund to fund retirement benefits to members

Health Insurance Subsidy
Plan Description
The Board of County Commissioners contributes to the Florida Retirement System Health Insurance
Subsidy (FRSHIS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the
State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services. Florida Statutes provides
the authority under which benefit provisions are established. The provisions may only be amended by
legislative action. The FRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements
and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained on the State of Florida Department
of Management Services website at www.dms.myflorida.com.
The FRS provides assistance to retirees of all state-administered retirement systems in paying health
insurance costs. Eligible retirees received an extra $5 per month for each year of creditable service
completed at the time of retirement with a minimum monthly payment of $30 and a maximum payment of
$150. To be eligible to receive the Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS), a retiree under any state-administered
retirement must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which can include Medicare. Any spouse or
financial dependent who receives a monthly retirement benefit may also receive the HIS.
Funding Policy
The HIS program is funded by required contributions from FRS participating employers. According to the
FRS actuarial valuation of HIS completed July 1, 2012, the unfunded actuarial liability of the HIS program
was $8.8 billion. The annual required contribution (ARC) calculated in July, 2012, for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 2013 is 1.71% of active payroll. Effective July 1, 2013, with the passage of Senate Bill
1810, the employer-paid contribution rate for the HIS program increased from 1.11% of the employer’s
payroll to 1.20% of the employer’s payroll. This contribution is added to the amount submitted for
retirement contributions but is deposited in a separate trust fund (The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy
Trust Fund) from which Health Insurance Subsidy payments are authorized. If these contributions fail to
provide full subsidy benefits to all participants, the subsidy payments may be reduced or canceled.
NOTE 15 - POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Board of County Commissioners
Plan Description
In addition to providing the pension benefits described, the Board of County Commissioners and all other
elected officials except for the Sheriff (County) provides post-employment health care and dental insurance
benefits (OPEB) for eligible retired employees and their spouses through a single-employer defined benefit
plan administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida (BCBSFL). Pursuant to the provision of Section
112.0801, Florida Statues, employees who retire from the County and eligible dependents, may continue to
participate in the group insurance plan. Retirees and their eligible dependents shall be offered the same
health and hospitalization insurance coverage as is offered to active employees at a premium cost of no
more than the premium cost applicable to active employees. The County subsidizes the premium rates paid
by the retirees by allowing them to participate in the plan at blended group (implicitly subsidized) premium
rates for both active and retired employees. These rates provide an implicit subsidy for retirees because, on
an actuarial basis, their current and future claims are expected to result in higher costs to the plan on
average than those of active employees. Benefits, benefit levels, employee contributions and employer
contributions are governed and amended through its personnel manual by the County’s Self Insurance Fund
with approval by the Board. The plan does not issue a separate report.

Benefits Provided
The County provides post-employment health care and dental benefits to its retirees. To be eligible for
benefits an employee must retire under the County’s retirement plan and must have been covered under the
medical plan as an active employee immediately prior to retirement. Elected officials are not eligible for
benefits if they qualify for retirement.
All health care benefits are provided through the County’s health care provider, BCBSFL. The benefit
levels are the same as those afforded to active employees. Benefits include general inpatient and outpatient
medical services; dental care; and prescriptions. Upon a retiree reaching age 65 years of age, Medicare
becomes the primary insurer and the County’s plan becomes secondary.

Funding Policy
The County contracted Insurance Broker negotiates the premium rates with BCBSFL. The County has not
advance-funded or established a funding methodology for the annual OPEB costs or the net OPBE
obligation. Rather, the required contribution is based on pay-as-you-go financing requirements. Retirees
and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits are required to contribute 100% of their current premium
costs which for fiscal year 2013 was $484,392. The County contributes the remainder to cover the costs of
providing the benefits to the retirees via the insured plan. Active employees do not contribute to the plan
until retirement.
Annual OPEB Costs and Net OPEB Obligation
The County annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the
employer (ARC) amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45.
The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost
each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a closed period not to
exceed 30 years. The following shows the components of the County’s net OPEB obligation:

Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of September 30, 2013, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was 0% funded. The actuarial
accrued liability (AAL) for benefits was $3,788,681 and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in an
unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $3,788,681. Actuarial valuation of an ongoing plan
involves estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of
events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the
healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the ARCs of the
employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new
estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required
supplementary information following the notes to financial statements in the government-wide financial
statements of Okaloosa County, Florida, presents multi-year trend information that shows whether the
actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued
liabilities for benefits.
Actuarial methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as
understood by the employer and the plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of
each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan
members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to
reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets,
consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.

In the September 30, 2013, actuarial valuation, the projected unit credit actuarial cost method was used.
The actuarial assumptions included a 4.0% investment rate of return, which is a blended rate of the
expected long-term investment returns on the employer’s own investments calculated based on the funded
level of the plan at the valuation date, and an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 6.1% initially, reduced by
decrements to an ultimate rate of 4.7% in 2082. The Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAAL) is being
amortized using an open amortization period of 30 level annual payments. The remaining amortization
period at September 30, 2013, was 24 years.
Sheriff
Background
Certain Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) are available to all employees eligible for disability, early
or normal retirement after terminating employment with Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO). The
OPEB benefits include lifetime coverage for the retiree and dependents in the medical/prescription plans as
well as participation in the dental group plan sponsored by the Sheriff’s Office for employees. Beginning
in fiscal year 2008, the Sheriff implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
Statement No. 45 for the OPEB offered to retirees. This standard addresses how local governments should
account for and report their costs related to post-employment health care and other non-pension benefits,
such as the Sheriff’s retiree health benefit subsidy. Historically, the Sheriff’s subsidy was funded on a pay-
as-you-go basis but GASB 45 requires the Sheriff to accrue the cost of the retiree health subsidy and other
post-employment benefits during the period of employees’ active employment, while the benefits are being
earned, and disclose the unfunded actuarial accrued liability in order to accurately account for the total
future cost of post-employment benefits and the financial impact on the Sheriff.
Plan Description
The OCSO administers a single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan (“the Plan”). The Plan provides
healthcare insurance for eligible retirees and their spouses through the Sheriff’s group health insurance
plan, which covers both active and retired members. Employer contribution rates for retirees vary based on
the type of retirement, years of service, and type of coverage. The Plan does not issue a publicly available
financial report but OPEB expenses are reflected in the Sheriff’s internal service fund within the County’s
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR).
Benefits Provided
Eligible retirees may choose among the same medical plan options available for active employees of the
employer. Dependents of retirees may be covered, at the retiree’s option, the same as dependents of active
employees. Prescription drug coverage is automatically extended to retirees and their dependents who
continue coverage under any one of the medical plan options. Covered retirees and their dependents are
subject to all the same medical and prescription benefits and rules for coverage as are active employees.
Retirees and their dependents are eligible to participate in the employer-sponsored dental plans. Retirees
may elect any combination of plans (i.e. only dental, medical/prescription, etc.). Retirees and their
dependents that are over age 65 must enroll for Parts A and B under Medicare in order to remain covered
under the program. All post-65 medical coverage is secondary to Medicare.

Funding Policy
Retirees and beneficiaries currently receiving medical/prescription benefits are required to make monthly
premium contributions in order to maintain their coverage. The single retiree premium is paid by the
OCSO for retirees with at least 20 years of service, until the retiree reaches age 65. Effective October 1,
2010 that benefit is no longer available except to retirees that met the criteria as of September 30, 2010.
Effective June 2011 the OCSO instituted a policy whereby retiring members with thirty years of service
with the agency will receive a 50% premium subsidy on their retired employee coverage. This subsidy is
limited to five years from their retirement date or until they reach age 65, whichever comes first.
Dependent coverage is paid by the retiree. The amount of the premium contribution may change from time
to time. Surviving spouses of retirees are eligible to continue coverage under the plan, but must continue to
pay the full premium. However, the premiums for health coverage for surviving spouses and any
dependent children of officers who had sustained catastrophic injuries or death in the line of duty are paid
fully by the OCSO as prescribed by FS Sec 112.19(g) and 112.19(h)1.
Annual OPEB Costs and Net OPEB Obligation
The Sheriff’s annual OPEB cost (expense) is the actuarially required contribution (ARC) of the employer
determined in accordance with the provisions of GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of

Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of July 1, 2011, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the actuarial accrued liability of benefits of
$2,873,292 was unfunded. Actuarial valuation of an ongoing plan involves estimates of the value of
reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future.
Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend.
Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the ARCs of the employer are subject to
continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about
the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following
the notes to financial statements in the government-wide financial statements of Okaloosa County, Florida,
presents multi-year trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or

Actuarial methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as

each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan
members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to
reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets,
consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
In the July 1, 2011, actuarial valuation, the individual entry age normal cost method was used. The
actuarial assumptions included a 4.0% investment rate of return, which is a blended rate of the expected
long-term investment returns on the employer’s own investments calculated based on the funded level of
the plan at the valuation date, and an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 8.5% initially, reduced by
decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.5% in 2020. The Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAAL) is being
amortized assuming 30 level annual payments. The remaining amortization period at September 30, 2013,
was 25 years.
NOTE 16 - RISK MANAGEMENT
The County is exposed to risk of loss for claims and judgments for public liability, workers’ compensation,
employee medical benefits and other special risks. The County uses the Self Insurance Internal Services
Fund to account for all risks from workers’ compensation loss, general liability, and medical benefit claims
for all County employees except those of the Sheriff, from catastrophic damage to real and tangible
property and from special risk policies for the Board. A mixture of commercial insurance coverage and
self-insurance, which is described below, manages the risk to the County. There has been no significant
reduction in insurance coverage from the prior fiscal year, and insurance coverage has been sufficient to
cover all claims made in the prior three fiscal years.

NOTE 16 - RISK MANAGEMENT - CONTINUED
A. Method of Risk Management
Public Liability
Florida Statutes 768.28(5) limits the maximum County liability for claims and judgments by
any one person and any one incident to $200,000 and $300,000, respectively. The County
self-insures public liability claims for automobile, general and professional liability. A third
party administrator manages claims. Currently, the County retains the risk for the first
$100,000 ($50,000 for automobile liability, $5,000 for hired automobile physical damage) of
each claim or incident. In 2013, the County elected not to renew a Stop Loss Aggregate
insurance policy which covered losses over $2,200,000 ($50,000 for automobile liability,
$1,000 for physical damage.
The Sheriff maintains a commercial insurance policy for public liability and bears no risk of
loss under this type of coverage.
Property Insurance
The County self-insures the risk of physical loss to its real property, business property and
equipment. The County retains the risk of the first $50,000 of physical damage to County
property. In the case of a named storm, the self-insurance retention changes to a 3%
deductible on each structure with a minimum deductible of $100,000 on all damaged
structures for a capped deductible of $5,000,000 per storm. Excess insurance is purchased to
cover the physical damage exposure over the self-insured retention amount.
Workers’ Compensation
The County contracts with a Third Party Administrator to have its workers’ compensation
claims processed. The County retains risk for all claims up to $350,000 per incident. Excess
insurance is purchased to cover losses up to a statutory limit for workers’ compensation and
$1,000,000 for employers’ liability. The County retains no liability for claims that have been
settled by purchase of annuity contracts.
The Sheriff participates in the Florida Sheriff’s Association Workers’ Compensation Program.
It is a fully insured, guaranteed cost program with a deductible trust fund and insurance with a
commercial carrier. The Sheriff retains no risk.
Employee Medical Benefits
The Board of County Commissioners and all other elected officials of Okaloosa County,
except the Sheriff, use a fully insured commercial insurance plan to fund employee medical
benefits. The Board of County Commissioners or elected official pays the premiums for the
employees while the individual pays for dependent and retiree coverage. The County bears
no risk of loss under this type of coverage.
The Sheriff utilizes a self-funded health plan to provide comprehensive medical benefits to
the employees, retirees and their dependents. It is funded by contributions from the Sheriff’s

Excess insurance is purchased from a commercial carrier to provide a specific claim and

additional corridor of $125,000. Aggregate limits coverage limits the Sheriff’s total risk
exposure. This coverage provides the Sheriff with an additional $1,000,000 in coverage for
the coverage year when total claims paid less the total paid under the specific claim excess
coverage exceeds 125% of the expected claims for the current plan year.
The Sheriff uses an internal service fund to account for risks from medical benefit claims.
Claim expenditures and liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and
the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. At September 30, 2013, the amount of
these liabilities was $658,809. This liability has been determined based on an actuarial
evaluation of all claims reported and all claims incurred but not reported (IBNR) as of
September 30, 2013. Claim liabilities are calculated considering the effects of inflation,
recent claim settlement trends including frequency and amount of payouts and other economic
and social factors.

County Commissioners purchases a commercial policy. The County bears no risk of loss
under this type of coverage. The Sheriff insures this exposure separately.
B. Claim Liabilities for Retained Risk
Claim liabilities for workers’ compensation, general liabilities (including errors and omissions), and
auto liability (both bodily injury and property damage) have been determined based on an actuarial
evaluation of all claims reported and all claims incurred but not reported (IBNR) as of September 30,
2013. Claim liabilities are calculated considering the effects of inflation, recent claim settlement
trends including frequency and amount of payouts and other economic and social factors. The
actuarial estimation of ultimate losses does not include any future recoveries from the Florida
Special Disability Fund, subrogation or third party liens, etc. except to the degree they are implicitly
included in the trending process of estimating ultimate losses. The ultimate loss calculation does
take into consideration specific excess reinsurance recoverable. Claims liabilities recognized in the
Self Insurance Fund of the Board of County Commissioners at September 30, 2013 were as follows:
Current Long-term Total
Workers' compensation $ 1,133,245 $ 1,414,985 $ 2,548,230
General liability 691,516 1,192,005 1,883,521
Auto liability 15,284 6,792 22,076
Property 41,176 - 41,176
Total claims liability recognized $ 1,881,221 $ 2,613,782 $ 4,495,003
C. Funding of Claims Liabilities
The Self Insurance Fund charges the other funds of the Board and other participating elected
officials for the cost of claim liabilities based on actuarially projected budget requirements for
expected yearly cash payouts. This funding method results in a deficit fund balance that will be
charged back to the other funds over a reasonable period of time so that service fund revenues and
expenses will be approximately equal.

Wastewater Service Interlocal Agreement with Fort Walton Beach
In 2009, the Board adopted the Wastewater Service Interlocal Agreement with the City of Fort Walton
Beach (Agreement). The Agreement outlines a long-term association for the treatment of the City’s
influent wastewater flow at a set percentage of the County’s base sewer rate plus a locked-in annual rate
escalator. The agreement provides other ancillary benefits to the City such as the provision of “no cost”
tertiary treated effluent for use as irrigation water at the City’s 36-hole municipal Golf Club. The
Agreement is effective for 30 years and can be automatically extended for up to two additional terms for a
period of ten years for each extension term.
The City will be billed monthly at a rate equal to $2.46 per each 1,000 gallons of wastewater flow.
Additionally, the City will pay to the County the Sewer Readiness to Serve Fee, which is equal to $3,750
per month. Beginning March 2011, and each year thereafter, the Readiness to Serve Fee will increase by
3% annually. Service to the City began March 2010. Fees of $2,331,997 paid by the City during 2013 are
reflected as Charges for Services in the Water and Sewer fund. The minimum commitment to the County
under the Agreement is as follows:

Convention Center Expansion
Okaloosa County contracted with a company for construction of additional boat ramp parking and an
outdoor exhibit area for $1,064,464. The Convention Center will expand the outdoors facilities by adding
a fenced 30,000 square feet concrete pad with a small building to provide utilities and audio services. The
Convention Center’s $974,577 portion of the project will be provided by Tourist Development Tax
Revenue. The project began in 2013 with $46,649 reported in construction in progress. The project is
scheduled to be completed in April 2014.
Customer Facility Charge Agreement
As of December 1, 2004, the County entered into a Customer Facility Charge Agreement with the on-
airport rental car companies. In accordance with Ordinance No. 04-64, the County imposes and the rental
car companies collect on behalf of the County, a Customer Facility Charge (CFC). Effective July 2007,
Ordinance 04-64 was amended to increase the CFC charge from two dollars and fifty cents ($2.50) to
three dollars and twenty-five cents ($3.25) per rental car transaction day on all rental car contracts. In
December 2010, Ordinance 10-16 was implemented increasing the CFC charge from three dollars and

twenty-five cents ($3.25) to three dollars and seventy-five cents ($3.75). CFC revenue will be utilized by
the County to construct, operate and maintain facilities and services for the rental car operators and their
customers at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport. The facilities were completed and began operations
in fiscal year 2009. CFC collections for the year ended September 30, 2013 were $1,570,156 and will be
used for debt service on the Series 2007 taxable airport revenue bonds. In fiscal year 2013, the Airport
used $518,767 of CFC revenue generated from the rental car companies for abatement of certain facility
rent.
Emergency Operations Center
Okaloosa County and Northwest Florida State College executed a memorandum of understanding in 2005
for a joint use facility which would house the College’s Community Life, Safety and Military Science
programs, and the County’s Public Safety Administration, Emergency Operation Center, and the 911
Dispatch Center. The facility also may serve as a hurricane evacuation shelter. The County’s rent is $10
per year for the facility located on the College’s Niceville, Florida campus. The County funded
approximately $7,000,000 in contributions to the project. The joint use facility was completed and
operations began in December 2010.
Grants
Amounts received or receivable from grant agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor
agencies, principally the federal government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already
collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures which
may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the Board expects such
amount, if any, to be immaterial.
Lawsuits
The Board is a defendant in various lawsuits. Although the outcome of these lawsuits is not presently
determinable, it is the opinion of the Board’s management that resolution of most of these matters will not
have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Board.
Arbitrage Rebate
Section 148(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the proposed and temporary
regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service on May 15, 1989, and made final effective May 18,
1992, require the rebate to the United States government of the excess of earnings on non-purpose
investments over earnings which would have been made on such investments if they had been made at
bond yield, together with earnings on all future rebate amounts. Although rebates need not be remitted
until five years after issuance of the bonds and each five (5) years thereafter, computations must be made
annually to show financial position at fiscal year end. Okaloosa County has six bond issues and one note
falling within the purview of the above directives - $26,615,000 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2009;
$3,600,000 Capital Improvement Revenue Bond, Series 2011; $13,450,000 Fourth Cent Tourist
Development Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2000; $10,860,000 Airport Revenue Bonds, Series 2003;
$31,170,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2004; $65,150,000 Water and Sewer Revenue
Bond, Series 2006; and $15,605,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Note Series 2012.
According to the calculations, the Board has no rebate liability with respect to the bonds at September 30,
2013. This determination reflects the liability on that date only and does not represent any amount that
may be due at the end of the five-year period from the delivery date of the bonds.

Florida Department of Juvenile Justice Reconciliation
The State of Florida Department of Juvenile Justice changed the manner in which it shared costs with
Counties for juvenile detention in FY08-09 and as a result a greater share of costs were passed on to the
Counties. Various counties, including Okaloosa County, have filed administrative challenges to the
reconciliations of the Department of Juvenile Justice. Rule challenges have been filed to the Department’s
reconciliation for FY09-10 through 11-12. The rule challenges were affirmed on appeal and Okaloosa
County has overpaid the Department of Juvenile Justice $2,415,023 for the three years at issue. The
Department has admitted that this overpayment calculation is correct but has taken the position that there
is no legislative funding for this overpayment, and therefore it cannot credit or refund Okaloosa County
for this amount. An additional credit for FY-12-13 has been calculated at $682,841; however the
Department has taken the same position. No amounts have been recorded in the financial statement for
these credits or refunds since realization is uncertain.
Medicaid County Billing Retrospective
In accordance with section 409.915, F.S., Okaloosa County must contribute a portion of the cost for State
Medicaid for county “resident” Medicaid patients. House Bill 5301 pledged the Agency for Health Care
Administration (AHCA) would certify and identify the county costs of unpaid retroactive amounts owed
from November 2001 thru April 2012 and allow the County to either pay or petition for hearing. July
2012, AHCA certified open claims of $839,540 with net payments, credits, and transfers of $562,436
resulting in a preliminary certification of $277,104. After final certifications, AHCA certified the
County’s portion of the retroactive amounts to be $265,850. The Board approved the final certification of
$265,850 resulting in reduction of the State Revenue Sharing of $6,277 per month for 2013 and $3,139 per
month for the following four (4) year period.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 20, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Sunil Harman
SUBJECT: Supplemental JPA for Security Surveillance Systems
DEPARTMENT: Airport
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board of County Commissioners is requested to approve the
acceptance of a Supplemental Joint Participation Agreement (SJPA) Number Two that amends
the funding share of a previously approved SJPA.
BACKGROUND: The original SJPA was amended to include security surveillance for the
passenger exit late at Northwest Florida Regional Airport in addition to security systems at the
two General Aviation Airports (Bob Sikes and Destin Fort Walton Beach). Since the Florida
Department of Transportation funding for commercial service airports cannot exceed 50% of the
eligible costs, while GA airport funding may be as high as 80%; this increased the County's share
of the project costs from $260,360.00 to $463,913.00. The intended source for local funding
share is Passenger Facility Charges (PFC) for both the Northwest Florida Regional Airport and
GA airports. This is included in PFC Amendment No. 6 which will be submitted to the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) for approval when consultation with the Airlines is completed.
OPTIONS: Approve, Disapprove, Table
RECOMMENDATIONS: Airport Staff recommends approval of the Supplemental Joint
Participation Agreement and the required Signature Resolution which are attached.

SUBJECT: EMS Billing Contract with Intermedix
DEPARTMENT: Public Safety
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request Board approval to award and execute the contract for EMS
billing services with Intermedix for a total estimated cost of $370,000 annually.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The purpose of the contract is to provide professional billing
services for EMS. The scope of the contract includes, but is not limited to, patient care
reporting, data sharing with key hospitals and reporting to the Florida Department of Health
Bureau of EMS, compliance auditing, fee collection, insurance claims, and direct revenue
payments. Proposals from six billing companies were submitted on March 7, 2014. The Board
approved selection committee met on March 24, 2014, to review and rank the proposals.
Through the RFP process, Intermedix proposed continuing and enhancing services at a
substantial savings compared to the current contract. Currently, Intermedix charges 8.58% of
collections, which includes ToughBook field computers for electronic patient care reporting. In
this proposal, they reduced their collections fee to 5.53% providing the same services for an
approximately $110,000 annual savings. The committee unanimously recommended that

to be effective May 19, 2014.
OPTIONS: Approve or Reject the request to award and execute the contract with Intermedix.

SUBJECT: School Bus Transportation Lease Renewal
DEPARTMENT: Public Safety
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval of the lease renewal between the Okaloosa
County Board of County Commissioners and the School Board of Okaloosa County, which
establishes procedures for utilizing school buses for emergency transportation. These buses are
to be provided to the Board of County Commissioners before and after a hurricane or other
disaster. Per Purchasing guidelines, lease renewals must be approved by the Board.
BACKGROUND: Disaster response operations require the county to possibly provide
transportation to individuals to and from county shelters. Currently, the county provides
transportation to special needs residents without transportation to the special needs shelter. This
transportation is provided by Okaloosa Coordinated Transportation (OCT). OCT is limited to
the number of people they can transport due to the size of the OCT buses. The agreement with
the School Board will provide larger buses to the county, which will allow the county if needed
to transport larger numbers of individuals to county shelters. The renewal of a written agreement
with the School Board will also allow for possible reimbursement from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove.

BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval of the contract renewal with TLT Transport,
LLC, for the transportation of non-emergency Baker Act patients for one additional year from
October 1, 2014, through September 30, 2015. Per Purchasing guidelines, contracts/agreements
initially approved by the Board must be approved by the Board upon renewal.
BACKGROUND: In accordance with Florida Statues 394.462, if neither the patient nor any
person legally obligated or responsible for the patient is able to pay for the expense of
transporting a voluntary or involuntary patient to a treatment facility, the governing board of the
county in which the patient is hospitalized shall arrange for such required transportation and shall
ensure the safe and dignified transportation of the patient. The governing board of each county
is authorized to contract with private transport companies for the transportation of such patients
to and from a treatment facility. Currently, EMS transports Baker Act patients that are in need of
medical care and require medical clearance to local hospitals. Once a patient is medically
cleared or found not to have a medical condition requiring EMS transport, a non-emergency
transportation service is utilized. This type of arrangement enables EMS resources to be utilized
in the most appropriate manner enabling them to be more available for emergency calls. The
recovery of the transportation expenses are provided for in Florida Statutes 901.35. The County
has utilized TLT Transport, LLC, for the transport of non-emergency Baker Act patients since
2007.

SUBJECT: Airport Emergency Flooding Repairs
DEPARTMENT: Purchasing
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request the Board review and ratify procurement for the
emergency repairs for Bob Sikes, Destin, and Northwest Florida (NWF) Regional Airports due
to the flooding event on April 29 & 30, 2014.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: Bob Sikes, Destin, and NWF Regional Airports sustained
considerable damage due to the heavy rains received on April 29 & 30, 2014. Some areas of
damage were adjacent to runways and facilities. Airports contacted Purchasing with concerns
that subsequent rain events posed a considerable threat of further damage to the airport runways
and facilities; therefore, direction was sought from the County Administrator. Per Section H of
the Purchasing Manual, emergency procedures allow Purchasing to deviate from normal
solicitation procedures. In order to expedite the repairs, quotes were solicited in lieu of bids for
repair of the damage. Three (3) construction vendors were contacted, with one declining to
provide a quote. The lowest of the quotes was submitted by Gum Creek Farms; Bob Sikes
Airport $435,000, Destin Airport $100,000, and NWF Regional Airport $250,000. Purchase
orders #21401297, #21401298, & #21401299 were processed on Friday April 9, 2014 to Gum
Creek Farms and they were asked to mobilize immediately. A hold harmless and conflict of
interest form has been signed for the file. All insurance requirements have been approved by

Project Description: The applicant proposes to establish a nearshore artificial reef
area, which would be named “Crystal Beach Reef”. It would consist of a 200’ x 590’
deployment area, totaling 118,000 square feet (2.7 acres), which would provide habitat
and recreational fishing and diving opportunities. Material to be deployed would consist
of fifty-two (52) tiered reefs modules (also known as Walter Eco-System Reef Modules).
Each tier reef module would be 5 feet in diameter and would be mounted on 10-inch
diameter piles. The material to be deployed would have a maximum profile height of no
more than 11 feet at the deepest water depth and would result in a minimum authorized
depth of -6 feet at mean low water (MLW).

Vessel Strike Avoidance Measures
and Reporting for Mariners
NOAA Fisheries Service, Southeast Region
Background
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has determined that collisions with vessels can
injure or kill protected species (e.g., endangered and threatened species, and marine mammals).
The following standard measures should be implemented to reduce the risk associated with
vessel strikes or disturbance of these protected species to discountable levels. NMFS should be
contacted to identify any additional conservation and recovery issues of concern, and to assist in
the development of measures that may be necessary.
Protected Species Identification Training
Vessel crews should use an Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico reference guide that helps identify
protected species that might be encountered in U.S. waters of the Atlantic Ocean, including the
Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico. Additional training should be provided regarding
information and resources available regarding federal laws and regulations for protected species,
ship strike information, critical habitat, migratory routes and seasonal abundance, and recent
sightings of protected species.
Vessel Strike Avoidance
In order to avoid causing injury or death to marine mammals and sea turtles the following
measures should be taken when consistent with safe navigation:
1. Vessel operators and crews should maintain a vigilant watch for marine mammals and
sea turtles to avoid striking sighted protected species.
2. When whales are sighted, maintain a distance of 100 yards or greater between the whale
and the vessel.
3. When sea turtles or small cetaceans are sighted, attempt to maintain a distance of 50
yards or greater between the animal and the vessel whenever possible.
4. When small cetaceans are sighted while a vessel is underway (e.g., bow-riding), attempt
to remain parallel to the animal’s course. Avoid excessive speed or abrupt changes in
direction until the cetacean has left the area.
5. Reduce vessel speed to 10 knots or less when mother/calf pairs, groups, or large
assemblages of cetaceans are observed near an underway vessel, when safety permits. A
single cetacean at the surface may indicate the presence of submerged animals in the
vicinity; therefore, prudent precautionary measures should always be exercised. The
vessel should attempt to route around the animals, maintaining a minimum distance of
100 yards whenever possible.
NMFS Southeast Region Vessel Strike Avoidance Measures and Reporting for Mariners; revised February 2008.
Packet Pg. 701
6. Whales may surface in unpredictable locations or approach slowly moving vessels.
When an animal is sighted in the vessel’s path or in close proximity to a moving vessel
and when safety permits, reduce speed and shift the engine to neutral. Do not engage the
engines until the animals are clear of the area.
Additional Requirements for the North Atlantic Right Whale
1. If a sighted whale is believed to be a North Atlantic right whale, federal regulation
requires a minimum distance of 500 yards be maintained from the animal (50 CFR
224.103 (c)).
2. Vessels entering North Atlantic right whale critical habitat are required to report into the
Mandatory Ship Reporting System.
3. Mariners should check with various communication media for general information
regarding avoiding ship strikes and specific information regarding North Atlantic right
whale sighting locations. These include NOAA weather radio, U.S. Coast Guard
NAVTEX broadcasts, and Notices to Mariners. Commercial mariners calling on United
States ports should view the most recent version of the NOAA/USCG produced training
CD entitled “A Prudent Mariner’s Guide to Right Whale Protection” (contact the NMFS
Southeast Region, Protected Resources Division for more information regarding the CD).
4. Injured, dead, or entangled right whales should be immediately reported to the U.S. Coast
Guard via VHF Channel 16.
Injured or Dead Protected Species Reporting
Vessel crews should report sightings of any injured or dead protected species immediately,
regardless of whether the injury or death is caused by your vessel.
Report marine mammals to the Southeast U.S. Stranding Hotline: 877-433-8299
Report sea turtles to the NMFS Southeast Regional Office: 727-824-5312
If the injury or death of a marine mammal was caused by a collision with your vessel,
responsible parties should remain available to assist the respective salvage and stranding network
as needed. NMFS’ Southeast Regional Office should be immediately notified of the strike by
email (takereport.nmfsser@noaa.gov) using the attached vessel strike reporting form.

EXPLANATION SHEET
FOR THE ARTIFICIAL
REEF MATERIALS CARGO MANIFEST FORM
The attached artificial reef cargo manifest has been developed in compliance with subsection
379.249(6)(b), Florida Statutes, which states that:
“It is unlawful for any person to: store, possess or transport on or across state waters any materials
reasonably suited for artificial reef construction and stored in such a manner providing ready access for use
and placement as an artificial reef, unless a valid cargo manifest issued by the commission or a
commission-certified inspector is onboard the transporting vessel. The manifest will serve as authorization
to use a valid permitted site or land-based staging area, which will validate that the type of artificial reef
construction material being transported is permissible for use at the permitted site, and will describe and
quantify the artificial reef material being transported. The manifest will also include the latitude and
longitude coordinates of the proposed deployment location, the valid permit number, and the copy off the
permit conditions for the permitted site. The manifest must be available for inspection by any authorized law
enforcement officer or commission employee.”
This requirement for a cargo manifest became part of the statutory revision of the artificial reef
program statute Section 379.249 Florida Statutes (F.S.), modified during the 2000 State of Florida
Legislature. The statutory language allows a “commission certified inspector” to complete and approve the
artificial reef materials cargo manifest. Therefore, we are providing the attached cargo manifest form to all
local coastal government artificial reef coordinators and eligible non-profit corporations who may physically
construct artificial reefs with the approval of the permit holders.
INSTRUCTIONS
A separate cargo manifest form is to be completed for each load to be transported offshore
(i.e., one manifest per voyage). The manifest is to list all, and only, the reef materials onboard.
The top of the form is to be filled out by the reef builder with his/her contact information and
the information about the proposed reef materials to be deployed written into the boxes. If several
materials are identical but have different tag numbers, please write “SAME” in the box for the other
materials. Also put “SAME” under additional coordinates if all materials are going to the same
deployment site.
The shaded portion of the form at the bottom is to be filled out by the materials inspector.
The cargo manifest must be completed by an entity representing the holder of the applicable
artificial reef permit to assure that all materials meet the requirements of the permit.
Completion of the artificial reef materials cargo manifest is required for all construction activities.
The requirement to complete this document is not intended to be an undue burden on entities
wishing to legally construct artificial reefs within permitted sites, but is a tool to assist law enforcement
personnel in preventing the illegal construction of artificial reefs without the knowledge of the permit holder
or in areas outside of legally permitted sites. It is intended to allow law enforcement staff to determine
whether or not a load of materials is legal under the permit conditions. Without a properly completed Cargo
Manifest Form on board, reef builders will be returned to port pursuant to Chapter 379.249 (6) (b). It is not
necessary to send a copy of the Cargo Manifest Form to the FWC artificial reef section in Tallahassee.
Documentation of the reef building activity should be maintained by the entity issuing the manifest in the
event of any FWC inquiries.
Reminder: the placement of all public artificial reefs in state or adjacent federal waters requires the
submittal of a Materials Placement Report to the FWC artificial reef program within 30 days of public reef
deployment in accordance with s. 379.249 F.S.

Project Description: The applicant proposes to establish a nearshore artificial reef
area, which would be named “Okaloosa Island Reef”. It would consist of a 200’ x 590’
deployment area, totaling 118,000 square feet (2.7 acres), which would provide habitat
and recreational fishing and diving opportunities. Material to be deployed would consist
of fifty-five (55) tiered reefs modules (also known as Walter Eco-System Reef Modules).
Each tier reef module would be 5 feet in diameter and would be mounted on 10-inch
diameter piles. The material to be deployed would have a maximum profile height of no
more than 8 feet at the deepest water depth and would result in a minimum authorized

Vessel Strike Avoidance Measures
and Reporting for Mariners
NOAA Fisheries Service, Southeast Region
Background
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has determined that collisions with vessels can
injure or kill protected species (e.g., endangered and threatened species, and marine mammals).
The following standard measures should be implemented to reduce the risk associated with
vessel strikes or disturbance of these protected species to discountable levels. NMFS should be
contacted to identify any additional conservation and recovery issues of concern, and to assist in
the development of measures that may be necessary.
Protected Species Identification Training
Vessel crews should use an Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico reference guide that helps identify
protected species that might be encountered in U.S. waters of the Atlantic Ocean, including the
Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico. Additional training should be provided regarding
information and resources available regarding federal laws and regulations for protected species,
ship strike information, critical habitat, migratory routes and seasonal abundance, and recent
sightings of protected species.
Vessel Strike Avoidance
In order to avoid causing injury or death to marine mammals and sea turtles the following
measures should be taken when consistent with safe navigation:
1. Vessel operators and crews should maintain a vigilant watch for marine mammals and
sea turtles to avoid striking sighted protected species.
2. When whales are sighted, maintain a distance of 100 yards or greater between the whale
and the vessel.
3. When sea turtles or small cetaceans are sighted, attempt to maintain a distance of 50
yards or greater between the animal and the vessel whenever possible.
4. When small cetaceans are sighted while a vessel is underway (e.g., bow-riding), attempt
to remain parallel to the animal’s course. Avoid excessive speed or abrupt changes in
direction until the cetacean has left the area.
5. Reduce vessel speed to 10 knots or less when mother/calf pairs, groups, or large
assemblages of cetaceans are observed near an underway vessel, when safety permits. A
single cetacean at the surface may indicate the presence of submerged animals in the
vicinity; therefore, prudent precautionary measures should always be exercised. The
vessel should attempt to route around the animals, maintaining a minimum distance of
100 yards whenever possible.
NMFS Southeast Region Vessel Strike Avoidance Measures and Reporting for Mariners; revised February 2008.
Packet Pg. 737
6. Whales may surface in unpredictable locations or approach slowly moving vessels.
When an animal is sighted in the vessel’s path or in close proximity to a moving vessel
and when safety permits, reduce speed and shift the engine to neutral. Do not engage the
engines until the animals are clear of the area.
Additional Requirements for the North Atlantic Right Whale
1. If a sighted whale is believed to be a North Atlantic right whale, federal regulation
requires a minimum distance of 500 yards be maintained from the animal (50 CFR
224.103 (c)).
2. Vessels entering North Atlantic right whale critical habitat are required to report into the
Mandatory Ship Reporting System.
3. Mariners should check with various communication media for general information
regarding avoiding ship strikes and specific information regarding North Atlantic right
whale sighting locations. These include NOAA weather radio, U.S. Coast Guard
NAVTEX broadcasts, and Notices to Mariners. Commercial mariners calling on United
States ports should view the most recent version of the NOAA/USCG produced training
CD entitled “A Prudent Mariner’s Guide to Right Whale Protection” (contact the NMFS
Southeast Region, Protected Resources Division for more information regarding the CD).
4. Injured, dead, or entangled right whales should be immediately reported to the U.S. Coast
Guard via VHF Channel 16.
Injured or Dead Protected Species Reporting
Vessel crews should report sightings of any injured or dead protected species immediately,
regardless of whether the injury or death is caused by your vessel.
Report marine mammals to the Southeast U.S. Stranding Hotline: 877-433-8299
Report sea turtles to the NMFS Southeast Regional Office: 727-824-5312
If the injury or death of a marine mammal was caused by a collision with your vessel,
responsible parties should remain available to assist the respective salvage and stranding network
as needed. NMFS’ Southeast Regional Office should be immediately notified of the strike by
email (takereport.nmfsser@noaa.gov) using the attached vessel strike reporting form.

quantify the artificial reef material being transported. The manifest will also include the latitude and
longitude coordinates of the proposed deployment location, the valid permit number, and the copy off the
permit conditions for the permitted site. The manifest must be available for inspection by any authorized law
enforcement officer or commission employee.”
This requirement for a cargo manifest became part of the statutory revision of the artificial reef
program statute Section 379.249 Florida Statutes (F.S.), modified during the 2000 State of Florida
Legislature. The statutory language allows a “commission certified inspector” to complete and approve the
artificial reef materials cargo manifest. Therefore, we are providing the attached cargo manifest form to all
local coastal government artificial reef coordinators and eligible non-profit corporations who may physically
construct artificial reefs with the approval of the permit holders.
INSTRUCTIONS
A separate cargo manifest form is to be completed for each load to be transported offshore
(i.e., one manifest per voyage). The manifest is to list all, and only, the reef materials onboard.
The top of the form is to be filled out by the reef builder with his/her contact information and
the information about the proposed reef materials to be deployed written into the boxes. If several
materials are identical but have different tag numbers, please write “SAME” in the box for the other
materials. Also put “SAME” under additional coordinates if all materials are going to the same
deployment site.
The shaded portion of the form at the bottom is to be filled out by the materials inspector.
The cargo manifest must be completed by an entity representing the holder of the applicable
artificial reef permit to assure that all materials meet the requirements of the permit.
Completion of the artificial reef materials cargo manifest is required for all construction activities.
The requirement to complete this document is not intended to be an undue burden on entities
wishing to legally construct artificial reefs within permitted sites, but is a tool to assist law enforcement
personnel in preventing the illegal construction of artificial reefs without the knowledge of the permit holder
or in areas outside of legally permitted sites. It is intended to allow law enforcement staff to determine
whether or not a load of materials is legal under the permit conditions. Without a properly completed Cargo
Manifest Form on board, reef builders will be returned to port pursuant to Chapter 379.249 (6) (b). It is not
necessary to send a copy of the Cargo Manifest Form to the FWC artificial reef section in Tallahassee.
Documentation of the reef building activity should be maintained by the entity issuing the manifest in the
event of any FWC inquiries.
Reminder: the placement of all public artificial reefs in state or adjacent federal waters requires the
submittal of a Materials Placement Report to the FWC artificial reef program within 30 days of public reef
deployment in accordance with s. 379.249 F.S.

SUBJECT: Purchase Emergency Police Dispatch Protocol System
DEPARTMENT: Public Safety
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: To purchase and implement Emergency Police Dispatch call taking
protocol system for the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office 911 operation.
BACKGROUND: Currently, the County Warning Point utilizes the Emergency Medical and
Emergency Fire Dispatch protocol systems from Priority Dispatch, Corp., for emergency and
non emergency call taking. The protocol system was created to effectively deliver the best
possible level of public care while protecting dispatchers and their centers from liability.
The Police Priority Dispatch protocol system is designed to improve the speed and accuracy of
the caller interrogation process. The protocols cover most if not all of the possible scenarios
encountered in law enforcement call centers and provide a measurable and equalized standard of
law enforcement practice for the public for each call taken. The project includes software,
backup flip card chart sets, project implementation and course certification for the Sheriff’s
Office communications center employees.
The protocol system will allow the Sheriff’s Office to process emergency and non emergency
calls in a standardized process, providing better customer service and life safety instructions.
The cost for the project is $112,656.00. The project would be paid with $60,000 of FY14
budgeted 911 funds and $52,656 of reserve 911 funds.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove.

Dispatch protocol system.

SUBJECT: Future Water Supply Land Acquisition Program Update
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Staff is providing an overall update to the Board on land acquisition
related to future water supply planning. OCWS is requesting approval from by the Board to
move forward with the Shoal River Reservoir Land Acquisition with funds freed up by grant
funding that has been obtained.
BACKGROUND: On December 3, 2013, staff provided the Board with an overall update on
future water supply planning efforts and obtained permission to move forward with the Shoal
River Buffer Land Acquisition. That Agenda Request, along with supporting documentation is
attached, for your review. Since that approval, staff has been hard at work with the many
moving parts. Progress has been made on the following: 1) identified the parcels to purchase, 2)
obtained an asking price from the seller, 3) coordinated with other agencies such as Eglin AFB,
AFCEC (Air Force Civil Engineering Center), Northwest Florida Water Management District
(NWFWMD) , and Enterprise Florida Inc., 4) retained attorney (Nabors, Giblin, Nickerson) and
worked closely with them on items like the Restrictive Use Easement, and 5) secured agreements
for fourth phases of REPI (Readiness & Environmental Protection Integration) and DIG
(Defense Infrastructure Grants).
We are now moving forward with surveying (with in-house crews), environmental work, and
appraisals. Because the actual purchase acreage is dependent upon available funding, appraised
values, and negotiations, we are having more land appraised than what may actually be
purchased. Upon completion of the initial appraisal, staff will negotiate with the property owner
and bring back a contract to the BCC for approval and execution. If/when we are under contract,
the appraisal would be updated to the exact acreage we intend to close on.
At the May 5, 2014 meeting, the Board approved a Grant Agreement with the NWFWMD for the
Mid-County Elevated Tank #4 project, related to water supply in our Mid County Service Area
(unincorporated Crestview). Because of this grant funding, there is now additional money
available in the Water & Sewer 5-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Staff is recommending
to utilize the funding freed up by the grant, along with other DIG funding, to move forward with
the Shoal River Reservoir Land Acquisition. Please note that the above-mentioned update in the
first two paragraphs is for the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition; where the primary purpose
is buffering for the Eglin Mission and the secondary purpose is watershed protection and
potential wetlands mitigation. On this proposed Shoal River Reservoir Land Acquisition, the
primary purpose is future water supply, and a secondary purpose is buffering. The Shoal River
Reservoir Land Acquisition involves purchasing land from multiple property owners for the
future construction of a reservoir, surface water treatment plant, roadways, pipelines, and other
Packet Pg. 805
related infrastructure. Nabors, Giblin, Nickerson has been retained as the real estate attorney to
manage the closing and ensure all local and state requirements are met.
The following are the recommended steps to move forward with the Shoal River Reservoir Land
Acquisition:
- Obtain asking prices from property owners.
- Obtain land appraisals in conformance with State Statutes. If the purchase price is expected to
be over $500,000 for a parcel, 2 appraisals are required per F.S. 125.355.
- Staff to negotiate with property owners and sign Option contracts (each contract will be
brought back to BCC for approval & execution).
- During contract period, survey would continue along with title work, title insurance, addressing
any liens and encumbrances such as utility easements and mineral rights, and other due
diligence.
- Coordinate funding from REPI and DIG grants and OCWS sources.
- Closing. Note that property purchased under the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition project
will have a Restrictive Use Easement on it, but land purchased under this Shoal River Reservoir
Land Acquisition project will not have a Restrictive Use Easement on it.
- Staff will also negotiate with multiple property owners for easements related to utilities or
access. If any payments are required for these easements, they will be brought to the BCC
individually for approval.
In moving forward with this process, OCWS assumes the financial risk of any expenses, should
we not close on the property. These expenses are minimal compared to the benefit and value of
the land to be purchased.
Regarding the multiple property owners, staff may bring multiple "Option to Purchase Real
Estate" contracts to the BCC for approval and execution at different times; however, we plan to
close on all properties on the same day.
Please note that, because we may be beginning the early stages of negotiating a land purchase,
the dollars, acreage, and property owner names are not being publicly disclosed at this time.
This process is very similar to the process the State goes through when purchasing land.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommends BCC approval for OCWS staff to move
forward with the Shoal River Reservoir Land Acquisition activities as outlined above.

SUBJECT: Future Water Supply Planning Update
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Staff is providing an overall update to the Board on future water
supply planning efforts. OCWS is requesting approval from by the Board to move forward with
the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition with grant funding that has been obtained.
BACKGROUND: See attached files:
"OCWS Future Water Supply Update" - explains the need, background/history, and next steps.
"OCWS Future Water Supply Plan (Map)" - depicts the current plan/strategy, after years of
planning. This map shows potential locations for the following infrastructure: surface water
treatment plant, off-line reservoir, river intake structure, raw water pumping station, transmission
lines, roads, and the Gulf Power transmission line relocation.
"2010 Implementation Plan (Updated")" - the BCC approved this plan in February 2010. At the
time, it was an unfunded road map. Since then, we have entered into as many partnerships as
possible - Northwest Florida Water Management District (NWFWMD), Eglin Air Force Base,
and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - to accomplish many items on this Implementation Plan.
Items highlighted in green are completed, and items highlighted in yellow are underway.
"REPI Map" - this is Exhibit B of the REPI agreements (Readiness & Environmental Protection
Initiative) and functions as a road map for the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition.
The following is the recommended steps to move forward with the Shoal River Buffer Land
Acquisition:
- Retain real estate attorney to manage closing and ensure all local, state, and federal
requirements are met.
- Obtain asking price and questionnaire form from property owner.
- Conduct 2 land appraisals in conformance with State Statutes & Air Force standards.
- Negotiate with property owner and sign contract (will bring back to BCC for approval &
execution).
- During contract period (6-12 months):
- Survey
- Environmental Baseline Survey
- Title work & insurance
- Restrictive Use Easement reviewed & signed by Air Force
- Obtain money from Eglin AFB for the land purchase and allowable transaction costs.
Packet Pg. 808
- Closing
- Okaloosa County would now own the property.
- Restrictive Use Easement to the Air Force would be executed by
Okaloosa County.
All land acquisition costs and closing costs are reimbursable through the REPI and DIG grants.
However, in moving forward with this process, OCWS assumes the financial risk of any
expenses, should we not close on the property. These expenses are minimal compared to the
benefit and value of the land to be purchased.
Please note that, because we may be beginning the early stages of negotiating a land purchase,
the dollars and acreage are not being publicly disclosed at this time. This process is very similar
to the same process the State goes through when purchasing land. In putting together the above-
mentioned steps, staff consulted with the state, Purchasing, Eglin, and the Clerk of Court.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS staff recommends BCC approval for OCWS staff to move
forward with the Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition with grant funding that has been obtained.

Packet Pg. 813
The Need
Water customers in
Okaloosa County are
served by OCWS and
several other utilities
Drinking water supply
relies on wells in the
Floridan Aquifer
Water levels in the
Floridan Aquifer have
been declining since the
1950’s and further
declines are not
sustainable
Packet Pg. 814
The Need
Okaloosa County will need additional water sources to:
– Sustain County’s economic and population growth
– Protect Floridan Aquifer and prevent saltwater intrusion
– Provide for conjunctive use
Packet Pg. 815
Planning Background and History
Early 1990’s – Northwest Florida
Water Management District and
OCWS began to foresee the need
for future water supply planning
Mid 1990’s thru Mid 2000’s –
Initial studies were performed by
various groups (USACE and
NWFWMD primarily) on potential
sources throughout Okaloosa
County.
1999 – Creation of the Regional
Utility Authority (RUA)
Packet Pg. 816
Planning Background and History
2004 – Construction of a 21-mile
30-inch pipeline with two 1-MG
tanks thru Eglin AFB.
2006 – Northwest Florida Water
Management District contracted
with PBS&J to study potential
water supply alternatives.
2006 – Purchased 353 acres
along the Shoal River for future
utilization.
2008 – OCWS formed a Future
Water Supply Committee
consisting of local concerned
citizens.
Packet Pg. 817
Planning Background and History
2008 – OCWS contracted CH2M HILL to assist OCWS and
the Future Water Supply Committee with studying future
water supply.
2009-10 - Two Riverbank Filtration Studies Performed to
Evaluate Suitability of Shoal River.
2010 – In February, Okaloosa Board of County
Commissioners Approved a 4-Year Implementation Plan.
2010-13 – In partnership with the USACE and OCWS, CH2M
HILL has performed three tasks under the USACE’s
Planning Assistance to States Program which provides for a
50/50 cost-share for work performed. In total, the
partnership has performed almost $700,000 in studies with
OCWS contribution $350,000.
Packet Pg. 818
Planning Background and History
2013 – OCWS met with NWFWMD to discuss status of land
acquisition. NWFWMD has not budgeted for land acquisition
in their FY14 budget and has no firm timeline when or if land
acquisition will be funded. NWFWMD preference is for
OCWS to lead this effort.
Packet Pg. 819
Planning Background and History
2013 - Shoal River Land Acquisition was submitted to the
FDEP for consideration for Pot #2 of the RESTORE Act and
NFWF funding.
Packet Pg. 820
Next Steps
Safe Yield Analysis on Shoal River (aka Water Use Permit) -
Perform preliminary analysis to determine the feasibility of
withdrawing up to 10-million gallons per day from the Shoal
River.
Utilize existing REPI and DIG Grants obtained in partnership
with Eglin AFB to purchase land parcels north of Eglin AFB,
south of I-10 and near the Shoal River for both source water
protection, military buffer, and potential water treatment plant
site.
Packet Pg. 821
Next Steps
All three REPI Grants require a match
– The match for REPI 1 is the OCWS’s existing 353 acres along the Shoal
River.
– The match for REPI 2 and 3 is the DIG Grant 2 and 3.
DIG 1 is also available and is intended to partner with NWFWMD to
purchase the reservoir property.
Grant Utilization Plan
– Utilize REPI 2 and 3 matched with DIG 2 and 3, respectively, to purchase
land in the targeted area and place all land within a restrictive use easement
with Eglin AFB. The land acquisition may also include additional phases of
REPI & DIG.
– Seek an extension for DIG 1 from current expiration date of 12/23/13 to
allow for more time to coordinate with the NWFWMD and determine
whether they are going to assist with the land acquisition. Land purchased
with DIG 1 will not be required to be placed within a restrictive use
easement, thus it has more flexibility. Packet Pg. 822
Next Steps
Packet Pg. 823
Shoal River Buffer Land Acquisition –
Moving Forward with REPI & DIG
- Retain real estate attorney to manage closing and ensure
all local, state, and federal requirements are met.
– Obtain asking price and questionnaire from property
owner.
– Conduct 2 land appraisals in conformance with State
Statutes & Air Force standards.
– Negotiate with property owner and sign contract (will
bring back to BCC for approval and execution).
Packet Pg. 824
(continued)
– During contract period (6-12 months):
• Survey
• Environmental Baseline Survey
• Title work & insurance
• Restrictive Use Easement reviewed & signed by Air Force
– Obtain money from Eglin AFB for the land purchase and
allowable transaction costs.
– Closing
• Okaloosa County would now own the property
• Restrictive Use Easement to the Air Force would be executed
* Note: All land acquisition costs & closing costs are reimbursable through REPI &
DIG grants. However, in moving forward with this process, OCWS assumes the
financial risk on any expenses should we not close on the property. These
expenses are minimal compared to the benefit.

BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 20, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Jeff Littrell
SUBJECT: American Suncraft Change Order #2
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Staff requests BCC approval to extend the contract time and
approve Change Order #2, Repair and Paint Countryview and Bluewater Tanks (2014) for
American Suncraft Construction, Inc.
BACKGROUND: Bids were taken on February 5, 2014 for the painting and minor repairs of the
Countryview and Bluewater Tanks. The lowest responsive and responsible bidder was American
Suncraft Construction, Inc. of Medway, OH. A contract in the amount of $543,475.00 was
awarded to American Suncraft in March 2014. Work is now under way, and American Suncraft
is almost complete with the painting of Countryview Tank; Bluewater Tank painting has not yet
begin. In addition, early in the project several repair items were discovered and were added in
Change Order #1 (total addition of $4,800.00).
The original intent of the contract time of only 120 days to substantial completion was that the
contractor would be able to paint both tanks simultaneously (as they are in separate service
areas) and be finished with both by early summer and the beginning of hurricane season.
However, due to delays in relocating antennas (for the OCWS radio read meters and the Sheriff’s
Department communications) from the Bluewater Tank to the monopole co-located on the tank
site, the Contractor was unable to begin work on the Bluewater Tank in a timely fashion. In
addition, the extraordinarily cold, then wet weather we have had during late winter and spring
greatly delayed the progress of the project.
It is standard practice in coastal areas to drain and paint water tanks during the winter months
and have them back in service by the beginning of hurricane season. Although water tanks are
designed to withstand strong winds empty, they are infinitely sturdier when filled with water.
OCWS would prefer not to have the Bluewater Tank empty during the coming hurricane season.
American Suncraft has volunteered to de-mobilize from the project and re-mobilize to Okaloosa
County in the winter of 2014 to complete the paint and repair of the Bluewater Tank at no
additional expense to Okaloosa County. In addition, there are four tanks in the system that will
be due for their FDEP required five year cleaning and inspection by late 2014 and early 2015 and
Suncraft has agreed to add the cleaning and inspections (as outlined in the attached summary) to
their contract for $19,220.00. These prices are well within line with those of similar cleaning
and inspections in prior years’ contracts.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute
Packet Pg. 826
Change Order #2 for $19,220.00 and add 240 days to the total contract time to accommodate
completion of the Bluewater Tank and cleaning and inspection of four other tanks in the winter
of 2014-15.

AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 20, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Jeff Littrell
SUBJECT: Harcros Chemicals, Inc - Contract Amendment
DEPARTMENT: Water and Sewer
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: OCWS staff desires to amend the contract with Harcros Chemicals
(Contract #C13-2072-WS) to include the price per gallon of $1.63 for 55 gallon drums of sodium
hypochlorite.
BACKGROUND: Okaloosa County has a contract with Harcros Chemicals to provide chlorine-
related commodities to our water and sewer system. Primarily, it is utilized for gas cylinders:
150-lb cylinders at well sites and 1-ton cylinders at the Russell Stephenson Water Reclamation
Facility (WRF). At the Arbennie Pritchett WRF and the Bob Sikes WRF (BSWRF), sodium
hypochlorite (liquid bleach) is utilized for disinfection purposes.
BSWRF is a 1.0 million gallon per day (MGD) annual average daily flow (AADF) design
capacity, membrane bio-reactor (MBR) wastewater reclamation facility. The BSWRF operating
permit #FLA010181-006 issued by the Florida Dept. of Environmental Protection (FDEP)
requires the effluent discharge to be disinfected to meet parameters set by the permit. The
BSWRF was designed to utilize sodium hypochlorite for its disinfection requirement. Bleach is
sold and delivered in two ways which are compatible for usage and offloading at the OCWS
wastewater reclamation facilities: 275 gallon totes and 55 gallon drums. The BSWRF does not
have the capability nor the applicability to utilize the 275 gallon tote containers and hence, can
only use the 55 gallon drums.
Being that BSWRF is a relatively small facility and a relatively small amount of sodium
hypochlorite is used (compared to Arbennie Pritchett WRF), we have been purchasing this
commodity via credit card with each order. We would like to add this commodity to the existing
contract with Harcros Chemicals. This line item is estimated to be 120 drums per year, which
equates to $10,758 per year.
OPTIONS: Approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATIONS: OCWS requests BCC approval to authorize the Chairman to execute
a contract amendment to Contract #C13-2072-WS with Harcros Chemicals, Inc. which would
add 55 gallon drums of sodium hypochlorite at $1.63 per gallon.

3- New Business:
Everyone was provided copies of information ofthe issue being brought before the Board by Ann Halbert.
Amy Allen led a discussion explaining the SHMSBU Board needed to approve a fee increase due to an arrearage. She
explained that there are a total of 228 Units in the community but onty 169 of them were paying units- This has
created a negative cash balance. The negative balance for 2013 is 54,923 and as of Aprit 10th the 2014 negative
balance is S1,132. This puts the sHMsBu at a negative cash carry forward of 56,055' ln order to balance out the
SHMSBU there will have to be an increase to the current rate. As of lune 1, 2014, the monthly cost will be 511.12 for
the remainder of the year. This rate increase will bring the SHMSBU into current balance. ln January 2015 the rate
will decrease to S7.50 per month.
Lisa payton volunteered to draft a notice for the Chairman's signature, to notify the 59 property owners who are not
participating in the program but are reaping the benefits of it, in an attempt to 8et them to contribute to the
program.
Amy Allen will check with the Water & Sewer Department to obtain a list of the properties not participating and
determine the best way to allow payment for these properties.
Discussion ensued.
Motion to approve the rate increase made by Barry Gray and seconded by Richard Hawthorne. Motion carried.

TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Turner
SUBJECT: Shalimar Annex Project - Asbestos Abatement
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request Board approval of a Change Order in the amount of
$170,854.54 to the Lord & Son contract for asbestos abatement of the former Shalimar Annex.
BACKGROUND: An asbestos survey was conducted on all five of the main buildings at the
former Shalimar Annex on March 3, 2014. The survey revealed the presence of asbestos
containing materials (ACM) in several parts of the buildings. Before the start of any work that
may disturb any of the ACM, the ACM must be properly abated by a qualified contractor and
properly disposed of.
The abatement was not a part of Lord & Son's original contract. To keep the project moving
forward to completion before the deadline, Lord & Son is being charged with the responsibility
to get the abatement done. The costs for the abatement, air monitoring, and administration is
$170,854.54 (documentation attached). Until other financial arrangements are determined for
complete funding of the current major construction projects, staff recommends utilizing the
current funds allocated in the 301-3160-562132 account (Capital Outlay Fund - Shalimar Annex
- Phase II) to fund the CO.
RECOMMENDATIONS: (FM) Request Board approval of a Change Order in the amount of
$170,854.54 to the Lord & Son contract for asbestos abatement of the former Shalimar Annex
and authorize the Chairman to execute all documents.
