Mr. James Denslow, Clermont, was present to discuss the use of this site. He suggested the Board consider the sale of the clay pit to the Community.

2. How accessible the location is to the other counties in the region.
Mr. Jones stated that the County can redesignate site
locations.
On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Carson and carried unanimously, the Board, in order to meet the mandatory stipulations that are required by the Water Assurance Quality Act, approved to designate two S-acre sites, adjacent to each other, at the Lone Pine Clay Pit and those sites be designated as primary and secondary locations, and further stipulated that access to this property be only from Buckhill Road and that there be a minimum 200 foot buffer maintained on the perimeter edge of those five acre tracts.

She stated that area residents have made complaints regarding manure going into Lake Akron, and odor and fly problems. It was noted that the dairy has a retention pond which was designed by Lake Soil and Water Conservation in 1979. Ms. Muller stated that Mr. Watts, owner of the dairy, has not maintained the system and that he is reluctant to come into compliance with rules and regulations. She further stated that the area residents have requested to appear before the Pollution Control Board to discuss the problems.
Mrs. Muller stated that Soil Conservation is attempting to work with Mr. Watts regarding the situation.
The Board went on record supporting the Pollution Control Department in trying to work with the residents in regards to the problems at the dairy farm in Paisley, directed the Staff to encourage Mr. Watts to work with the Soil Conservation, and instructed the Pollution Control Department to keep the Board aware of the situation.
HOUSING FINANCE AUTHORITY/RESOLUTIONS
Mr. Sam Mazzotta, Orange County Housing Finance Authority,
addressed the Board and gave a brief presentation on
multifamily housing bonds. He also gave a brief review on the single-family mortgage revenue bond program. He stated that a package pertaining to the multi-family housing bonds would be sent to the Commissioners for their review.
Mr. Mazzotta explained that one difference between a single- family mortgage bond and a multi-family housing bond was that a bond issuer will not take a risk on a multi-family project, the project has to be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of bonds.
Mr. Mazzotta explained that the Board has two options:
1 . As the Board is constituted as a Housing Finance Authority, as outlined in the Florida Statute, that in the multi-family program, the Board can sit as the Lake County Housing Finance Authority and receive a credit rating on the bonds and be the issuer of the bonds, and retain the technical staff of the Orange County Housing Finance Authority to accomplish the work effort, with the Board maintaining control of the policies and the oversight of each individual project, or
2 . The Board could adopt a Resolution and an Interlocal Agreement designating the Orange County Housing Finance Authority as Lake County's agent in reviewing projects. Commr. Smoak questioned if the Board needed to do the following:
1 . Indicate by resolution that the Board wishes to participate in multi-family housing projects.
2. Designate, through an Interlocal Agreement if that is the
desire of the Board, the Orange County Housing Finance Authority as Lake County's agent in reviewing any projects. Included in the Interlocal Agreement should be language that the Board should be made aware of any applications that have been received.
Mr. Ford, County Attorney, stated that he felt that that was the only action that Mr. Mazzotta needed.
Commr. Windram informed the Board that he sits on the Board of Directors at a local bank and questioned if there would be a conflict of interest if action is taken. Mr. Ford stated that he did not feel it would be a conflict as that action was doing something in general and not specific.
On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Carson and carried unanimously, the Board authorized the County Attorney's Office to prepare a petition to the Courts for the validation of bonds for the multi-family projects, not to exceed 100 million dollars in the 7th Series.
On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Carson and carried unanimously, the Board approved and authorized the County Attorney's Office to prepare a Resolution, indicating the Board would like to participate in the multi-family program, and an Interlocal Agreement authorizing the Orange County Housing Finance Authority to act as the agent for Lake County with the multi-family program.

COMMITTEES/ORDINANCES
Mr. Dan Kotulla, Director of Planning, addressed the Board to give a report on the Impact Fee Study. He stated that earlier in the year, the Board entered into a contract with Dr. Juergensmeyer & Associates to develop a road impact fee ordinance to provide capital expenditure revenues necessary to insure that adequate roads are available to serve new developments. As a result of the study, they have recommended adoption of the road impact fee ordinance. He further stated that the report recommended the following items:
1. That Lake County collect the impact fees at the time of issuance of the building permit. Moreover, that the fees be adopted county-wide and that the municipalities collect the fees, keep a retainage of 3%, and remit on a monthly or other convenient basis to the County.
2. That special road impact fee funds be established to receive the collections. Each fund would be associated with specific geographic areas within the County. The balances within the funds should be placed into interest earning investments with all interest accruing to the funds.
3. That each year the County Administrator present to the Board of County Commissioners a proposed road capital improvement program which will allocate some or all of the balances of the several funds to specific road improvement programs that are of benefit to the district from which the revenues were derived.
4. In the event that revenues are unallocated at the end of the fiscal year following nine (9) years after receipt of the revenues, provisions should be made to refund fees to the property owners, plus reasonable interest.
Mr. Kotulla stated that there were two major items in the
proposed ordinance that needed to be resolved.
1. What actual fee does the Board wish to allocate to the
various types of land uses.
2. Determination of geographic areas or benefit zones.
Commr. Smoak informed the Board that the Committee had problems with the benefit zones. He stated that there are currently 14 benefit zones, which are the existing County planning zones. It was the feeling of the Committee members that instead of adopting the 14 planning sectors, that the benefit zones be revised to include the cities. It was the recommendation of the Staff for additional benefit zones so that the area could be more clearly identified which the cities will have specific interest in. He stated that before any action is taken, a general consensus is needed by the Board regarding the benefit zones and then those zones needed to be presented to the cities for their review.
Commr. Smoak did not recommend final action on the proposed ordinance until meetings have been held with the cities. It was noted that the cities did not have to participate in the program. It was further noted that none of the cities in Lake County have their own impact fee.
Mr. Carl Ludecke, a member on the Committee, was also present to discuss the impact fee with the Board.
Discussion occurred regarding the fee schedule. Commr. Windram questioned if the proposed fee schedule had been compared to other fee schedules in the State. Commr. Smoak stated that our fee schedule was comparable to Lee County's fee schedule. He stated that it was the Committee's intent to start the fees out low and then if additional fees are needed, increase the rates at that time.
Mr. Willett also pointed out that the fees cannot be used on dirt roads or cul-de-sacs. It was noted that these funds could only be spent on collector and arterial roads.
Mr. Minkoff, County Attorney's Office, was also present to discuss the proposed impact fee with the Board.
Commr. Windram questioned if the funds could be used for acquisition of right-of-way. Mr. Willett stated that it could be used for the acquisition of right-of-way only on collector and arterial roads.
Discussion continued regarding the benefit zones. It was the feeling of the Board that the cities should have the opportunity to look at the two proposed benefit zones prior to any decision being made.
On a motion by Commr. Smoak, seconded by Commr. Windram and carried, the Board accepted the report and recommendations of the Impact Study Committee and approved in principle, the proposed draft ordinance for impact fees for Lake County, and that the staff be directed to set up a countywide meeting with city officials and Dr. Juergensmeyer, later in January, to discuss the proposed ordinance under consideration by the Board of County Commissioners.
Commr. Carson voted "NO".
Commr. Smoak informed the Board that the Committee will meet again and report back to the Board with specific figures for the fee schedule the first or second meeting in January.
Mr. Minkoff stated that the exact figures need to be set in the ordinance and if changes had to be made to the rates, the ordinance would have to be amended.
