COUNTY MANAGER'S DEPARTMENTAL BUSINESS

JAILS/COURTHOUSE/COUNTY BUILDINGS & GROUNDS

Mr. Mike Anderson, Director of Capital Improvements, explained this request, stating that the original contract with Barton Malow consisted of a single site and single building; however, there are now two sites and three separate structures involved, consequently, three separate Guaranteed Maximum Prices (GMPs). He stated staff would like to recognize all three of the GMPs and roll them into one. He stated they would also like to develop the seventh courtroom, as Judge Briggs has expressed a need for it. He stated

that some design changes have been drawn up, for the Board's perusal, which would make this possible, at which time he requested the Board to approve the above requests.

Mr. John Conley, Vice President of Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum, Inc. (HOK), appeared before the Board, at which time he distributed and reviewed a summary of the requested revisions which Mr. Anderson alluded to, involving the ground floor, the second floor, and the third floor of the Criminal Justice Facility, as well as reviewed several plans of the interior of the building. He then displayed a colored picture rendition of what the facility will look like, when completed, as well as the various materials which will be used for the interior of the building, such as carpeting, wallpaper, window glass, cloth, tile, wood veneer, etc., and the granite which will be used on the exterior of the building.

A brief discussion occurred regarding the granite, which will be used on the front lower level of the facility only, at which time it was noted that the granite was replacing a Mexican stone that had originally been approved by the Task Force. Mr. Conley stated the reason for the change was due to the fact that, as they got further and further into the project, they were being strongly cautioned against use of the Mexican stone for the exterior of the building, due to problems involving longevity and water tightness.

Commrs. Bakich and Hanson requested HOK to do a cost analysis of what it will cost for the granite versus a stone such as stucco.

Mr. Johnny Vernon, Project Manager for Barton Malow, appeared before the Board stating that they were running ahead of schedule and anticipate a completion date for the facility of April 10, 1992.

Mr. Andy Brooks, Assistant Project Manager for Barton Malow, appeared before the Board and distributed a handout indicating the construction GMP and project budget, as well as the final unit building costs, at which time he reviewed same. He stated the Total Construction Cost/GMP is in the amount of $40,857,000.00, with the Project Cost/Budget being in the amount of $52,138,000.00,

which he noted meets the budget which was originally established. He stated that said costs include the shelling out of the seventh and eight courtrooms, and the finishing out of the seventh courtroom.

Mr. Brooks informed the Board that in April, when the budget for the Criminal Justice Facility was first being discussed, they established a construction goal of achieving $400,000.00 in savings, using the sales tax recovery program. He stated that, as of the end of July, 1991, they had identified $432,000.00 in savings, noting that said goal has now been increased to $500,000.00.

Mr. John Dickinson, Project Administrator for Barton Malow, appeared before the Board stating that the objective for the Criminal Justice Facility was $85.00 per square foot, which has been achieved. He stated the County now has a facility that the whole County, including the users, can be very proud of. He then addressed the issue of the granite versus the stone, which is to be used on the lower level of the facility, noting the reasons they decided to go with the granite. He stated granite is a 40 year building material that will require no maintenance.

Mr. Conley, HOK, distributed a letter from the American Institute of Architects, praising the Lake County Detention Facility, stating that it has been included in the 1991-1992 Exhibition of Architecture for Justice. He stated that they have put together a Presentation Board that will tour across the United States, due to the design of this facility.

On a motion by Commr. Hanson, seconded by Commr. Bakich and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request from Capital Improvements, for the establishment of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the Criminal Justice Facilities, consisting of Prelude, the Main Jail, and the Criminal Justice Facility, in the amount of $40,857,000.00.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved the substitution of the

granite (which had been displayed) for the Mexican stone, which had originally been approved, for the exterior of the Criminal Justice Facility.

JAILS/CONTRACTS, LEASES & AGREEMENTS/COURTHOUSE

COUNTY BUILDINGS & GROUNDS

Mr. Mike Anderson, Director of Capital Improvements, explained this request.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request from Capital Improvements, to negotiate and execute an amendment to the scope of services of the Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum contract, for the Interior Design package for the Criminal Justice Facility, and to encumber and expend funds, in an amount not to exceed $40,000.00.

RECESS & REASSEMBLY

At 10:20 a.m. the Board recessed for five minutes.

CONTRACTS, LEASES & AGREEMENTS/PUBLIC HEALTH

Mr. Lonnie Strickland, Director of Health & General Services, appeared before the Board and reviewed the various sections of the contract between Lake County and Waterman Health Care Systems, Inc./Florida Regional Emergency Services, explaining what each section pertained to.

Ms. Annette Star Lustgarten, County Attorney, referred to paragraph (f), on Page 13 of the contract, at which time she reviewed said language, which states what will need to be done should the insurance coverage provided for be reduced. She then stated the reason why the County's Risk Manager required additional coverage at this time.

Mr. Zeb Osborne, President of Waterman Health Care Systems and Florida Regional Emergency Services, appeared before the Board stating that a public hearing had been held regarding the matter of the contract, noting that the reason it is being readdressed this date is to address Commr. Swartz's concern about the complaint procedures. He stated that the contract has been changed to where there is a requirement on Waterman's end, that they provide Mr.

Strickland, or whoever is designated, with the complaints which they are receiving. He stated that, out of the 18,000 runs which they did last year, they had only 20 documented complaints, which he felt was a very acceptable number.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved the revised contract between Lake County and Waterman Health Care Systems, Inc./Florida Regional Emergency Services, to become effective October 1, 1991.

ACCOUNTS ALLOWED/PUBLIC HEALTH

Mr. Lonnie Strickland, Director of Health & General Services, explained this request.

Mr. "Skip" Babb, Lake County Public Defender, appeared before the Board stating that, in order to secure grant funds, from the Federal Government, for the 1991-92 Anti-Drug Abuse Act, the Public Defender's Office needs the Board's approval that they will provide a required 25% cash match, in the amount of $42,050.00. He stated they can receive said funds ($126,000.00), if they can obtain the County's portion. He stated the only way to solve drug and alcohol abuse is through preventive education, from kindergarten through middle school.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request from the Public Defender's Office, for the County to provide a required 25% cash match ($42,050.00), in order to receive the 1991-92 Anti-Drug Abuse Act grant funds, from the Federal Government. Said funds will come out of the General Fund of the 1991-92 budget, therefore, will not be available until October of 1991.

ACCOUNTS ALLOWED/PUBLIC HEALTH

Mr. Lonnie Strickland, Director of Health & General Services, explained this request.

On a motion by Commr. Hanson, seconded by Commr. Bakich and carried unanimously, the Board acknowledged an increase of funds to the Lake County Public Health Unit, in the amount of $10,800.00, for the Women Infant Care (WIC) Program, for contract year 1990-91.

PUBLIC HEALTH

Mr. Lonnie Strickland, Director of Health & General Services, explained this request.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board denied a request from Dr. Pellosie, Director of the County Public Health Unit, to appropriate county monies for FY 1991-92, to fund the Rabies Control Program, due to the fact that rabies surveillance is a State mandated program, and the County has yet to receive funds from the State for it.

CONTRACTS, LEASES & AGREEMENTS/EDUCATION

Mr. Lonnie Strickland, Director of Health & General Services, explained this request.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request from Health & General Services, for an interlocal agreement between Lake County and the Lake County School Board, relating to emergency use of school buses.

CONTRACTS, LEASES & AGREEMENTS/WATER AUTHORITY

Commr. Bailey requested that this matter be postponed until such time as he has had a chance to discuss it with Commr. Gregg.

Mr. Will Davis, Director of the Lake County Water Authority, indicated that he had no objection to said postponement. He stated, however, that the Water Authority is at the final year of their three year agreement, and that they wished to extend it for at least another three years, which he noted is not in the existing amendment to the interlocal agreement; therefore, the Board might want to look at it as an option.

It was noted that the salary range would also need to be discussed.

On a motion by Commr. Hanson, seconded by Commr. Bakich and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request from the Chairman, for postponement of a request to amend the existing interlocal agreement with the Lake County Water Authority, for the Geographic Information System Program (GIS), until a later date.

PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT

Mr. John Swanson, Executive Director of Planning and Development, appeared before the Board to continue a discussion pertaining to the issue of vesting rights in the Comprehensive Plan. He stated that the backup which had been given to the Board, prior to this meeting, indicates direction which had been given to staff at a previous meeting, pertaining to commercial and industrial development centers, as well as amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and the Wekiva River Protection Area.

Mr. Swanson then referred to Policy 1-4.4, of the Board's backup, pertaining to employment centers and commercial activity centers, stating that a further change needed to be made to the wording of several sentences in the policy, at which time he indicated said changes. He stated that said changes will bring the policies relating to commercial and industrial centers, as well as language within the Comprehensive Plan, into conformance and will follow direction given by the Board. He stated this change indicates that new employment centers that are contiguous to existing employment centers will not have to have a land use plan amendment; however, if a new employment center is not contiguous, it will have to go through a land use plan amendment.

Mr. Swanson stated that staff would now package said information, and send a letter to the Department of Community Affairs, indicating that there had been an error of omission contained in the transcribing of the document (the policies in particular), from the Board's wishes to what had actually been adopted, and request that the previous policies be deleted and the new policies be included.

Ms. Annette Star Lustgarten, County Attorney, interjected that this would be an appropriate approach; however, DCA may view it as requiring an amendment, noting that if they did, they would advise the County of same.

Mr. Steve Richey, Attorney, appeared before the Board stating that the wording which Mr. Swanson alluded to is in the original

draft, and what the tape reflected, is that the Board did not vote to delete it. He stated said wording was actually deleted from what was transmitted, however, was not deleted by a specific vote and authorization by the Board.

Mr. Greg Beliveau, Land Planning Group, Inc., appeared before the Board stating that there is a list of criteria in Policy 1-3.9 that states what is and is not considered commercial and industrial.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request to include the language alluded to by Mr. Swanson, Executive Director of Planning and Development, in Policy 1-4.4, and that staff be directed to address DCA and show the fact that the language submitted is what the Board had included all along.

COUNTY ATTORNEY'S MATTERS

LAWS & LEGISLATURE/PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT

Ms. Annette Star Lustgarten, County Attorney, informed the Board that an appeal of a development order issued for Corinthian Park PUD has been filed by the Department of Community Affairs with the Cabinet, noting that it is property in the Green Swamp, and they are challenging it, based on the Comprehensive Plan and a number of other actions. She stated that her office will respond appropriately, as they would do in defending any development order issued by the County. She stated that it is a direct appeal to the Cabinet, and the Cabinet has the option of hearing it directly, or giving it to the Department of Administrative Hearings. She stated that her office has yet to be advised as to how the matter will be handled.

A brief discussion occurred regarding the matter; however, no action was taken at this time.

COMMISSIONERS' BUSINESS

ACCOUNTS ALLOWED

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request for ratification

of the Board on financial items which needed to be paid prior to this Board Meeting.

COMMISSIONERS/REPORTS

Commr. Bailey briefly reviewed the report which had been compiled from the workshop meeting which was held at Mission Inn, on July 30, 1991, for the purpose of setting priorities for the various projects which the County is involved in.

Mr. John Swanson, Executive Director of Planning and Development, appeared before the Board concerning the Population Study, stating that staff has received a proposal from a consultant (RDL & Associates), and requested the Board to take action indicating that this is the sole source contract, noting that the County has gone through this procedure in the past. He stated that this would help staff's process, in eliminating the need to go out for a competitive bid on the issues. He stated that the consultant is utilizing the Hank Fishkind people to make the projections. He noted that the amount of the contract is $9,500.00, which is under the $10,000.00 limitation that the County Manager can authorize, for signature.

A brief discussion occurred regarding the matter.

Ms. Annette Star Lustgarten, County Attorney, informed the Board that she would need to review the agreement before it is executed.

On a motion by Commr. Bakich, seconded by Commr. Hanson and carried unanimously, the Board approved a request for a population study to be done, for an amount not to exceed $9,500.00, based upon the County Attorney's approval of the agreement.

COMMISSIONERS/REPORTS

On a motion by Commr. Hanson, seconded by Commr. Bakich and carried unanimously, the Board accepted the Chairman's report concerning the actions which were taken at the Workshop Meeting held on July 30, 1991, at the Mission Inn, in Howey-in-the-Hills.





OTHER BUSINESS

MEETINGS/ELECTIONS

Commr. Bailey brought up the matter of the redistricting workshop meeting which is to be held in the near future. He noted that the Board would not be taking any comments during said workshop, but would hope that when the Board gets through with their comments and discussion, that they set aside a time for public comments.

PROPERTY APPRAISER

Commr. Bailey stated that Mr. Ed Havill, Property Appraiser for Lake County, had informed him that he would like to meet with the Board concerning what they had done regarding the fire tax.

Ms. Annette Star Lustgarten, County Attorney, stated that she had sent the Board a copy of a memo which she had sent to Mr. Havill, summarizing her understanding of what the Board's actions were regarding the matter, and requested that they read the memo before meeting with Mr. Havill.

COMMISSIONERS' BUSINESS

LANDFILLS/COMMITTEES

Commr. Bakich brought up the matter of possibly putting together a negotiating team, or committee, to readdress the incinerator issue, noting that if it is approved, it needs to be done as soon as possible, because there are individuals that are waiting for direction regarding the matter.

A brief discussion occurred; however, no action was taken at this time.

COUNTY ATTORNEY/COUNTY MANAGER

Commr. Bakich reminded the Board that it is time to evaluate the County Manager and the County Attorney - sometime between now and the beginning of September.

It was noted that a time to do so would be set at the Board Meeting of August 20, 1991, noting that the evaluations would actually occur sometime in September, 1991.

There being no further business to be brought to the attention of the Board, the meeting adjourned at 11:25 a.m.
