TOURIST DEVELOPMENT - REQUEST WAIVER OF TERM LIMIT FOR TDC CHAIRMAN Mr. Daniel O'Byrne, Tourist Development Director, asked consideration of a request from the Tourist Development Council (TDC) to waive the two one-year term limit provision of the TDC Operations & Procedures Manual regarding the election of TDC Chairman and Vice Chairman. He reported that at its meeting on August 22, the TDC unanimously approved a recommendation to the Board to waive this provision and unanimously nominated Kathy Houchins to continue in a third term as TDC Chairman and to forward that recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners. (This item was previously before the Board on October 16 but was tabled.) Upon inguiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. O’Bryne stated he is unaware of the Board waiving any TDC policies over the last eight years. Mr. Parisot said he does not believe it is necessary to do this, adding that Ms. Houchins is doing a great job. He noted he requested this item be returned to the TDC for discussion but was unable to be present at that meeting. It was his belief there should be a turnover of TDC members in order to get fresh ideas. Mr. Parisot stated the TDC is an advisory committee and he does not believe retaining long-term membership 1s necessary. He said these policy and procedures were just approved (September 18) and questioned the request to waive the policy. Mr. Harris did not support waiving the policy and believed doing so would send the wrong message. He stated he has personally spoken with Ms. Houchins on this issue. Mr. Windes agreed that Ms. Houchins has done a good job. He said there are times when you need to waive policy but he does not think this is one of those times. Mr. Windes made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to deny the request to waive the term limit provision in the TDC Operations & Procedures Manual. 5 yeas.

The asbestos survey and abatement phase of the project took longer than expected, pushing the actual remodeling work close to the end of the fiscal year. Once it was realized the work would not be completed in Fiscal Year 2012, the opportunity to request funding for the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget had passed. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to approve the funding request. 5 yeas. FACILITIES MAINTENANCE ~ CRESTVIEW HISTORICAL PRESERVATION GROUP REQUEST TO PLACE ITEMS IN CRESTVIEW COURTHOUSE Mr. Hofstad stated at the last meeting the Crestview Historical Preservation Group approached the Board regarding placement of historical pictures, maps, documents, and other artifacts in the Crestview Courthouse. The displays will be digitally reproduced and the Facilities Maintenance Department has been asked to be responsible for mounting the items to the walls. The Historical Preservation Group will determine which artifacts to display. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the request for display in designated areas of the Crestview Courthouse. Mr. Amunds stated there should be a joint decision between the Group and the Board. Mr. Harris said the Board will have oversight. 5 yeas. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR - UPDATE ON VETERANS PARK Mr. Curry stated the Master Plan for the county’s Island Golf Property included an area to be set aside for commercial purposes as a revenue source to maintain the facilities. Contracts/leases were executed with Wild Willy’s and AquaGreen. A separate fund is to be set up for maintenance of the park facility, advising an overview will be brought to the Board at the next meeting. Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. Curry stated the Clerk’s Office can set up the account.

Mr. Parisot stated there were some misplaced modifiers in the document and posed a concern about language which allows the Town to adjust the 5% collection fee by way of a town ordinance. Mr. Parisot said he sent emails to both Mr. Dowd and Town officials regarding this issue. He recommended Section XII be amended to read: Town of Shalimar utility taxes on water and sewer services according to governing Town of Shalimar ordinances will be collected and disbursed to the Town by the County after a reasonable collection fee not to exceed 5% of collected taxes. Mr. Dowd agreed with Mr. Parisot and noted this is a minor modification. Mr. Littrell stated the modified agreement will be returned to the Town Council for approval. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the interlocal agreement with the Town of Shalimar with the modifications proposed by Mr. Parisot. 5 yeas. PUBLIC HEARING - REQUEST OF PHILLIP AND DEBORAH JENNINGS TO VACATE PORTION OF 157" STREET IN PINE CREST S/D, NICEVILLE (9:00 A.M. Mr. Stanford read the advertised legal notice for public hearing to consider the request of Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Jennings to vacate the northern one-half of unimproved 15°" Street, measuring 25 feet by 150 feet and lying west of Pine Avenue and south of and adjacent to Lots 10, 11, and 12 of Block 66, Valparaiso Realty Company’s Pine Crest Addition to Valparaiso. (This hearing was originally before the Board on October 16 but tabled until today.) Mr. Hofstad stated this item was before the commissioners last month but additional details were requested. He said a number of photographs have been taken to provide greater details of the area. November 20, 2012 -6- Minute Book 68, Page 51 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Mr. Hofstad stated the Jennings are requesting vacation of an unimproved portion of 15‘" Street measuring 25’x150’. He advised the adjoining portion was previously vacated in the 1990s. Mr. Hofstad stated if approved, the resolution vacating the right- of-way will reserve county access and use for drainage. If Mr. Jennings installs a fence on the vacated portion and the county needs it for drainage, Mr. Jennings will be required to remove the fence. He advised that an alternate resolution has been prepared, vacating a strip 20 feet in width rather than 25 feet. This would provide an additional five feet for public use. Mr. Hofstad added the only opposition to the vacation has been from the Watts family. Mr. Amunds opened the floor for public comment but no one came forward to. speak. Mr. Harris made motion to approve the vacation as requested by the Jennings. Mr. Windes stated that he went on site Saturday and spoke with both Mr. Jennings and Mr. Watts. He said there are no sidewalks in this area and Mr. Watts wants to protect the children by having ample space for them to walk in the neighborhood. Mr. Windes stated Mr. Jennings said it would be acceptable to decrease the width of the vacated right-of-way to 20 feet and Mr. Watts, the neighbor, agreed to that as well. Mr. Harris withdrew his motion. Mr. Windes made motion, to adopt the alternate resolution, vacating a strip 20’x150’. Mr. Parisot stated he went to the location on Sunday and it appears to him there is already enough space for foot traffic between where a fence would go and the shrubs. He stated the property owner who received vacated right-of-way in the 1990s did not give anything up. Mr. Windes noted that would be a narrow and confined alleyway. Mr. Harris stated there appears to be agreement between both parties and seconded Mr. Windes’ motion. Mr. Boyles felt Mr. Parisot’s comments were misplaced regarding the portion which was previously vacated. He said it is regrettable the previous right-of-way vacation in the 1990s had no provision for public use but there is nothing which can be done about that now. Mr. Boyles stated he is sympathetic to the Jennings’ request but he is looking how that right-of-way may have future use. Mr. Amunds reopened the floor for public comments. Mr. Jennings stated he is basically in a position of “winning 20 feet.” He said Mr. Parisot and Mr. Windes were able to see the area first November 20, 2012 -7- Minute Book 68, Page 52 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners hand. Mr. Jennings said from where the flags were set to the south there is sufficient distance for foot traffic and a bicycle path. He stated his primary concern was the motorized vehicles coming through. The vote was taken on the motion---5 yeas. RESOLUTION NO. 12-168 PUBLIC HEARING - AMENDING CHAPTERS 1A AND 2, LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE (9:00 A.M.) Mr. Stanford read the advertised legal notice for a public hearing to consider changes to the Land Development Code (LDC) Submitted by the Growth Management Department, amending Chapter 1A Code Administration and Chapter 2 Zoning Regulations. This is the second hearing. The first hearing was held on November 6, 2012 in Crestview. Mr. Elliot Kampert, Growth Management Director, provided the following staff findings: e Section 1A.02.11 “Permits from Other Agencies.” A change to this section is necessary in order to make the LDC consistent with current state law. _ During the 2012 session, the Legislature enacted House Bill 503 which amended Section 125.022, Florida Statutes. This provision prohibits counties from requiring permit approvals from other agencies as a prerequisite to issuing development orders or permits. Currently, the LDC requires permit approvals from other agencies before a development order can be approved. e The County substantially revised Chapter 2 “Zoning Regulations” in May 2010. These revisions identified permitted uses in commercial and industrial zoning districts according to the North American = Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) codes. This was done to provide a more descriptive and inclusive list of permitted uses based on the types of businesses identified in the NAICS by the U.S. Census Bureau. The NAICS is the more comprehensive and authoritative list of officially recognized businesses in the county and it is updated every five years as part of the Economic Census. The most recent update is for 2012. As a result, staff took this opportunity to re-evaluate NAICS codes in relation to those currently listed in Chapter 2. The proposed changes are: November 20, 2012 -8- Minute Book 68, Page 53 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners o references to NAICS 2002 have been changed to NAICS 2012 o Section 2.08.00 Business Office (C-1) district has been changed: Code 54, add “except 541940 Veterinary Services with outside kennels or outside boarding of animals;” Code 5611 through 5615 Administrative Support Services, delete Code 5616 Investigative and Security Services including armored cars and security services; Code 6211 through 6213 Health Care and Social Assistance, delete Codes 6214 through 6216 including outpatient care centers, medical labs, and home health care services; Delete Code 928110 National Security including military bases and training camps o Section 2.10.00 General Commercial (C-3) district: Add Code 23 Construction; Code 48-49 Transportation, add warehousing, Air Transportation add 4831 Deep Sea, coastal and Great Lakes Water Transportation, add 4881 Support activities for Air Transportation, add 4882 Support activities for rail transportation, add 4883 support activities for water transportation, and add 4879990 scenic and sightseeing, other.

Ms. Virginia Hickman stated she lives in East Pass Towers and represents a number of residents. She complained about the use of a barge near the front of this property being used for helicopters landings. Ms. Hickman was concerned about the small boat traffic in the area. She also said she is unable to sit on the balcony because of the noise from the helicopters. Ms. Hickman said it was her understanding there was a moratorium on these type operations and asked how the helicopter company can do this. Mr. Amunds replied the county does not regulate the waterways. He explained the provisions of the Land Development Code do not cover the water. Mr. Dowd added that he is currently researching the issue to see what can be done. Mr. David Powell, attorney with the Ward & Ketchersid Law Firm and representing Timberview Helicopter and Destin Helicopter, stated his clients don’t want to land on barges. He said they want a place to do business and the airport is not feasible. Mr. Powell stated the site previously used by his clients did not require a development order because they were not developing anything and under the C-3 Zoning their helicopter operation was an accepted use. Subsequently, Mr. Powell said they found themselves going to the county when FDOT required approval from the county. He pointed out they were using a temporary permit at that time. Mr. Powell said Timberview was making application when the moratorium was adopted by the Board. He stated his clients had no prior notice the moratorium ordinance would be adopted on an emergency basis on June 19. Mr. Powell commented “They were told not to apply.” Mr. Amunds asked for Clarification on who told Timberview not to apply. Mr. Powell replied, “Let me think how they phrased it.” Mr. Harris asked Mr. Powell if he is saying when his clients went to FDOT they were told to go the county for a permit. Mr. Powell answered that he has not spoken with FDOT directly but did see a letter from FDOT requiring local zoning approval. Mr. Kampert noted that is no longer a requirement in Section lA. The new requirement is to comply with other agencies for permits and the county cannot predicate a permit on other agencies. Mr. Parisot referred to Judge Remington’s order of July 30 which stated that neither of the plaintiffs submitted an application. November 20, 2012 -10- Minute Book 68, Page 55 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners The application was made by the owner of Destin Commons. Mr. Powell confirmed that the landowner did file. He also advised the court case referenced by Mr. Parisot is not his lawsuit. Continuing, Mr. Powell stated his clients were caught in “no man’s land” with FDOT and then could not file when the moratorium was adopted. He advised that FDOT read this conservatively and told his clients FDOT could not approve the permit request. Mr. Powell asked why there are no moratoriums on any other proposed changes. He said the only opportunity his clients may have to file is in the “gap” between the effective date of the moratorium and the effective date of the proposed ordinance. Upon inquiry by Mr. Harris, Mr. Powell said his clients were flying from a C-3 parcel at the time of the moratorium. Mr. Parisot noted they were flying out of the Destin Commons parking lot. Mr. Powell stated the other company (competitor) was developing raw land and received approval during a public hearing. He said they will have protection under the current code. Mr. Dowd stated Mr. Powell’s clients were parties in the lawsuit referenced by Mr. Parisot earlier and in that lawsuit’ the grandfathering-in issue was addressed. Mr. Parisot said the judge’s order clarified the issue and there was no application for permanent relief. Mr. Windes stated he spoke with FDOT’s Airport Regional Manager on public and private airports. He detailed the information provided to him about the 14 facilities in the region. Mr. Windes said between the court case and the information he obtained, it appears there has been a lack of effort on the part of these businesses to qualify and follow the proper procedures. Mr. Dowd noted the issue before the Board is not about helicopter operations but about amending the Land Development Code. He said there could be a “window” for application if the board agrees to that provision. Mr. Windes replied that he has concerns about that provision which would allow anyone in after all that has taken place. He pointed out this has already been to court and been denied. Mr. Windes stated this iS an important issue for the Destin area. He said it affects the people who live here and diminishes “our product.” Mr. Windes asked who will protect our November 20, 2012 -11- Minute Book 68, Page 56 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners people if the Board does not. Mr. Windes made motion to approve the proposed amendments to the LDC. Mr. Harris said he will play the devil’s advocate for a moment. He said previously helicopter sightseeing operations were allowed in a C-3 zone but the proposed changes will not allow them. Mr. Kampert confirmed that C-3 did allow helicopter Sightseeing businesses. Mr. Harris said both Timberview and Destin Helicopter did what was allowed at the time. He also asked the question how one company had sufficient time to make application but the others did not. Mr. Harris then asked if this action is interfering with commerce. Mr. Amunds responded that if Timberview would have made application instead of the owner of Destin Commons, then Timberview would have a site. Mr. Harris said he does not want to pick winners and losers and asked if the Board is changing the law in the middle of the stream. Mr. Boyles stated he was in the audience when the previous public hearing took place and pointed out that Timberview was also in the audience. He said he came away from that meeting with the understanding things were about to change. Mr. Boyles stated he cannot take the position that Timberview did not know change was coming and coming quickly. He added that the county is not running them out of Destin or the county because they can move their operations to the airport. They also have the option of finding another site and having it rezoned. Mr. Parisot said he will support the amendment with an effective date as soon as possible. He added that he believes the Board is responsible for ground safety. Mr. Windes reiterated his motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to adopt the proposed amendments to Chapters 1A and 2 of the LDC. 5 yeas. ORDINANCE NO. 12-24 PUBLIC HEARING - AMENDING CHAPTER 9 OF LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, ABANDONED VEHICLES, BOATS AND/OR TRAILERS (9:00 A.M.) Mr. Stanford read the advertised legal notice for public hearing to consider changes to the LDC as submitted by the Growth Management Department. These changes are to revise Chapter 9 Operational Performance Standards regarding the definition of an abandoned and nuisance vehicle, boat or trailer. This is the November 20, 2012 -12- Minute Book 68, Page 57 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners second hearing. The first hearing was held on November 6, 2012 in Crestview. Mr. Kampert provided the following background and _ staff commentary: e Under the definition of an abandoned vehicle provided in Section 9.03.01.1, vehicles on car dealer lots, repair yards and other accepted and otherwise legal areas, would be considered abandoned. The proposed change corrects this oversight by recognizing various uses at which unlicensed vehicles may be kept. e Section 9.03.12.2 does not allow the common practice of leaving vehicles with relatives or friends while away (e.g. service men and women leaving vehicles with relatives while deployed or students leaving a car with parents while at school) unless the vehicle has a current tag or in a garage or carport if not being used. Also, a vehicle without a current tag cannot be kept behind an opaque privacy fence even if it is in perfect running order. The amendment clarifies the conditions under which vehicles without tags may be kept on properties without creating a nuisance. e As the subject matter deals with storage of vehicles and does not provide standards for the development of property, it is not clear why it was included in the LDC. The subject matter would be more appropriately located under “Traffic and Motor Vehicles.” Staff recommended including the subject in a new Article III of Chapter 21 of the “County Code.” It would follow Article II on stopping, standing and parking. e Inclusion of abandoned vehicles within the LDC has created confusion as to enforcement authority. Under the proposed new article, the responsibility would clearly rest with the Sheriff'‘s office. Mr. Kampert stated Mr. Boyles has requested consideration for an exemption for large tracts of agriculturally zoned land outside the Urban Development Boundaries. He advised that staff has no objections. Mr. Amunds stated this is the first the Board has heard of this suggestion. He commented that he believes in consistency and said as former law enforcement officer, consistency with the law is important. November 20, 2012 -13- Minute Book 68, Page 58 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Mr. Harris stated these are living documents and he has no Opposition to Mr. Boyles’ recommended change. However, he said how will the determination be made, asking if a five-acre lot in Holt would allow for someone to put an old car up on blocks. Mr. Harris stated this could be problematic. Mr. Amunds asked Mr. Boyles to pitch his idea. Mr. Boyles explained that when he read the proposed ordinance he developed concerns about nuisance vehicles. He said he understands the purpose of the ordinance is to correct deficiencies in existing conditions. Mr. Boyles cited examples. He stated that he has a camper he intends to renovate but it is not registered. Across the road, he can see an old Chevy in a neighbor’s barn. Mr. Boyles stated this standard applies more to urban area. He advised that he is not tied to this implementation but cannot support the draft ordinance. Mr. Kampert pointed out Code Enforcement will enforce whatever policies the Board adopts. Mr. Amunds asked if another hearing is required to consider this change. Mr. Kampert replied in the negative. He said the ordinance would be revised to include language saying the nuisance vehicle requirements would not apply to agriculturally zone properties outside the urban boundaries. Mr. Windes stated Mr. Boyles makes a good point, noting the diversity of our county. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to adopt the ordinance with an amendment exempting the nuisance vehicle requirements for properties with agricultural zoning and are outside the Urban Development Boundaries. 5 yeas. ORDINANCE NO. 12-25 WATER & SEWER - LEASE AGREEMENT WITH SKYETECH, LLC Mr. Littrell requested approval of a lease agreement with Natalie and Jeff Hendricks II of Skyetech LLC for lease of an Okaloosa County Water & Sewer owned building at 1310D Oddfellow Road in Fort Walton Beach. He also asked for approval of a resolution authorizing lease of the property. Mr. Parisot noted that Skyetech’s insurance coverage does not list Okaloosa County as additional insured. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the resolution and lease agreement with the stipulation Okaloosa County is added to the insurance policy. 5 yeas. RESOLUTION NO. 12-169 November 20, 2012 -14- Minute Book 68, Page 59 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners WATER & SEWER -— AMENDMENT TO INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT AND SALE AGREEMENT WITH CITY OF NICEVILLE FOR RECLAIMED WATER SERVICES FACILITIES Mr. Littrell requested approval of an amendment to the Interlocal Agreement and Sale Agreement (and associated documents) with the City of Niceville for transfer of the reclaimed water facilities. He advised Okaloosa County is no longer part of the NVOC Regional Sewer Board. The Niceville City Council unanimously approved the documents on November 13, 2012. Mr. Windes made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to approve the department head’s recommendation. 4 yeas, 1 nay. (Mr. Parisot voted no.) PUBLIC WORKS ~ STEPPING STONES AT SURF DWELLER CONDOMINIUM Mr. John Hofstad, Public Works Director, stated a request has been received from Jan Heisterman, owner of a unit within the Surf Dweller Condominium, to reinstall 12-inch diameter stepping stones on county property on the south side of the complex. The stepping stones were originally installed in 1983 by the contractor to provide unobstructed travel for the ground units to the beach walkover. The stones were removed for Hurricane Ivan in September 2004. They were replaced in April 2012 but after being replaced, Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) received a complaint and FDEP required the stones to be removed. Mr. Hofstad advised that staff has discussed this issue with Ms. Heisterman and FDEP. FDEP recognizes the area where the stepping stones are to be placed is county property and will require approval by Okaloosa County and a written request from the Surf Dweller Condo Association. He advised that the Public Works Department supplied FDEP with a letter of approval on October 8, 2012 but he does not believe the Condo Association has considered the item. Mr. Hofstad provided a number of slides of ground unit patios, county property and the dune walkover. He reported receiving a number of emails, both for and against the request. Consequently, staff felt it should present this issue to the Board for direction. Mr. Amunds commented if the stones are replaced, they should be recessed to avoid tripping hazards. Mr. Dave Sherry stated he is not currently on the Board of Directors for Surf Dweller but he is speaking on behalf of his November 20, 2012 -15- Minute Book 68, Page 60 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners wife, Sherry, who could not be present. He said Ms. Heisterman is not requesting approval to install the steps herself but seeking for the Condo Association to install the stepping stones along the entire length of the complex at the expense of the other condo owners. Mr. Harris asked what the big objection is to this request. Mr. Sherry replied it is potential damage to the vegetation. Mr. Harris pointed out people would be walking on the vegetation anyway. Mr. Sherry said ground unit owners can go out their front doors and through the breezeway to get to the dune walkover to the beach. Discussion ensued about the partitions and patios on the ground floor units. Mr. Harris commented we appear to be making a mountain out of an ant hill about this. Mr. Windes suggested the Surf Dweller homeowners association decide what they want to do as a body and the Board could go along with that decision. Mr. Dowd stated that would be authorizing people to build on public property. He also cited liability concerns about people tripping over the stepping stones. Mr. Brance Parker, Vice President of Surf Dweller Board, stated he agrees with Mr. Harris on this. He said the contractor installed the pavers to provide a logical flow to the dune walkover. Mr. Parker stated the first floor unit owners are going to take the quickest egress to the dune walkover. He pointed out people are going to walk this path whether the pavers are there or not. Mr. Parker commented that the stepping stones are stored on site, Saying this was never an issue before, Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to approve placement of the stepping stones. Mr. Boyles stated this issue should not have been on the agenda and staff should have made the decision. He added the request should come from the condominium association and not an individual. Mr. Curry said he would like to clarify that the Public Works Director did make the decision but felt it was important to have the Board uphold his actions. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - APPOINTMENT TO PARKS ADVISQP™“ COMMITTEE AND APPROVAL OF CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 WITH GUM CREEK FARMS FOR OLD ANTIOCH ROAD RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Harris, to approve the following items Public Works: November 20, 2012 -16- Minute Book 68, Page 61 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners (2) District I Appointment of Jody Smallwood to Parks Advisory Committee (3) Change Order No. 1 with Gum Creek Farms, Inc. for the Old Antioch Road Reconstruction Project, adding 10 days and $60,450 to the contract 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - RECOMMENDATION TO AWARD BID AND EXECUTE CONTRACT FOR BEACH CONCESSION SERVICES Mr. Hofstad recommended the bid for beach concession services be awarded to Island Sands Beach Service of NW Florida, LLC as highest bidder meeting specifications with an annual bid of $30,000. He also requested the Chairman be authorized to execute the contract. Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to award the bid to Island Sands Beach Service and to authorize the Chairman to execute the contract. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - INFORMATIONAL ITEM REGARDING PAYMENT TO GULF COAST TRAFFIC ENGINEERS FOR ROAD STRIPING The final invoice for road striping for FY 2011-12 in the amount of $379,905.39 has been presented by the vendor for review and payment. The work has been field verified and staff agrees with the work which has been completed. Sufficient dollars remaining in the FY 2011-12 budget to pay the total amount of the invoice. Due to the timing of the approved striping list and the contractor’s workload, not all of the list was completed. Those roads remaining on the 11ist will be completed in FY 2012-13. Gulf Coast Traffic Engineers was approved as the low bidder for road striping projects for FY 2012-13. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve the explanation. 5 yeas. PUBLIC WORKS - INFORMATION ITEM REGARDING EXPANSION OF EBNHANCED RECYCLING SERVICE Mr. Hofstad stated currently the county has a 2-1-1 program (two trash, 1 recycling, 1 yard waste pickups per week). A pilot program for enhanced recycling services (referred to as 1-1-1 program) has run since February in the Shalimar area. He termed the pilot project as “largely successful.” Mr. Harris noted only 20% of the the pilot program participants responded to the survey. Mr. Hofstad stated the majority of those responding were in favor or supportive. November 20, 2012 -17- Minute Book 68, Page 62 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Mr. Hofstad reported staff is currently working with Waste Management about restructuring an amendment to the contract that would be in the best long-term interest for citizens. He advised Waste Management wants additional time to review the data. Mr. Hofstad was hopeful that he could bring back additional information by the second meeting in December and this item could be resolved once and for all. Mr. Amunds asked a series of questions: 1. How much additional revenue will be brought in if the program is implemented countywide? 2. Can that revenue be used to offset the purchase of the trashcans? 3. Will there be a reduction in rates? 4. Are there options for citizens who would have trouble with moving the larger trashcans around? Mr. Hofstad stated residents can notify Waste Management if they have problems and arrangements can be made for the drivers to provide assistance. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles for discussion, to extend the pilot program in the Shalimar area until the end of December. Mr. Boyles noted this issue is not as simple as comparing apples to apples. The disposal of garbage is a regional issue. The vote was taken on the motion to extend the enhanced recycling pilot program in Shalimar until the end of December—5 yeas. OLD BUSINESS - VOLUNTEER DUNE PLANTING Mr. Dave Sherry, Okaloosa Island, stated the Volunteer Dune Planting event held earlier this year was the biggest yet, planting 20,000 sea oats. He said they hope to expand the 2013 event and plant 100,000 sea oats. Mr. Sherry stated sponsors are already signing up and their group has applied for a NRDA grant. Efforts are being made to coordinate with the county’s Okaloosa Island Dune Flora Restoration Project. He said if $40,000 in bed tax dollars can be contributed for the purchase of these 100,000 plants, the volunteers will be able to plant 1% miles on Okaloosa Island. Mr. Sherry said the condo alliance would provide the labor and permit for free. Mr. Sherry said he and his wife met with county staff and consulting engineer and they are concerned about volunteers being on the dunes after the county project is completed. November 20, 2012 -18- Minute Book 68, Page 63 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Likewise, they are concerned if the volunteer event occurs prior to commencement of the county project there could be damage by the contractor employees stepping on the sea oats planted by the volunteers. Mr. Sherry advised they could lose their sponsors if they stop now and if the plants are damaged by the contractor, it is a chance they will have to take. Continuing, Mr. Sherry said another concern is the county project has been delayed until April or May 2013. He felt this is late for planting and stated the turtle nesting season begins May 1. Mr. Sherry stated they do not want to be the cause for delaying the county project. He said the issue is whether or not the county wants to make TDC funds available for the purchase of the sea oats. Mr. Amunds stated the county does want to encourage volunteers and said perhaps there is a way for the contract to carve out an area for them to plant. He said the county is not just going to hand over $40,000 to the condo alliance and any distribution of county funds would have to go through the purchasing process. Mr. Sherry replied it was their intent to go through Purchasing Department and the county could send the check directly to the supplier. Mr. Parisot expressed concern about going from Seaspray Condominium to El Matador. He said the first option is not to have the volunteer planting in 2013. Mr. Parisot stated if a section of the project is carved out for volunteer planting, then a letter should be received from those beachfront properties saying they want the volunteer planting. He pointed out the plants to be used by the volunteers are inferior in size to the ones to be purchased for the county project. Mr. Jim Trifilio, Coastal Management Coordinator, stressed that staff would never be against any volunteer efforts. He said the Coastal Engineer for the project would have to sign off on the engineering design and this could cause a delay in the county’s Dune Flora Restoration Project. Mr. Trifilio also cited concern about the use of inferior plants. Mr. Matt Trammel, coastal engineer with Taylor Engineering, advised there are a number of issues. He said he is tasked with developing contract drawings and carving out a section to be planted with inferior plants will increase the difficulty of the job for the contractor. This could lead to an increase in costs and time for the project. Setting aside portions for volunteer November 20, 2012 -19- Minute Book 68, Page 64 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners planting would require additional surveys, pre-construction meetings, and time to flag off those areas. Mr. Trammel stated it would be necessary to verify the volunteer plantings were done according to specifications before the contractor comes out and plants. He said, “I must certify. We are looking at more work.” Mr. Amunds asked Mr. Trammel for his recommendation. Mr. Trammel said they want to provide an opportunity for everyone. He said perhaps the volunteers could supplement the contractor by doing plantings on the upland areas. Mr. Harris stated it 1s great the volunteers want to provide this assistance but pointed out the jeopardy it puts on the engineer because he must sign off on the work. Mr. Amunds noted the Board must provide direction and he feels the state-funded project should be the priority. Mr. Harris concurred that the professionals should do the work. Mr. Boyles added the volunteer planting event is noble but the $1 Million project needs to move on unimpeded. He said perhaps funds can be made available in 2014 for the volunteer event. Mr. Parisot stated he fully agrees with Mr. Boyles, saying we do not need to do anything to delay this State/County partnership. Mr. Windes echoed Mr. Parisot's comments. Mr. Curry confirmed the Girection of the Board is for the county to proceed with the county project and work with the volunteers for an after-project event. PUBLIC COMMENTARY Mr. Brance Parker commended the volunteers desiring to assist with the dune planting but said the risks could throw the project into disarray. He felt delaying the volunteer planting event wasS appropriate. Mr. Trip Tolbert stated his issues regarding the volunteer plantings were addressed during the discussion. He welcomed Mr. Boyles and Mr. Windes and said he believes this will be one of the best functioning Boards the county has ever had.
