MEETING: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, REGULAR 1. CALL TO ORDER: February 3, 1998, at 9:37 a.m., in the Palm Beach County Governmental Center, West Palm Beach, Florida. 1.A. ROLL CALL MEMBERS AND OFFICERS PRESENT: Chair Burt Aaronson Vice-Chair Maude Ford Lee Commissioner Ken L. Foster - Arrived later Commissioner Mary McCarty - Absent Commissioner Karen T. Marcus Commissioner Warren H. Newell Commissioner Carol A. Roberts County Administrator Robert Weisman County Attorney Denise Dytrych Deputy Clerk Carla Zafra 1.B. INVOCATION - Commissioner Roberts 1.C. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE 2. AGENDA APPROVAL 2.A. ADDITIONS, DELETIONS, SUBSTITUTIONS County Administrator Weisman noted the Agenda changes as follows: PAGE ITEM 8 3C-8 REVISED TITLE: a $430,823.61 20 4G ADD-ON: Proclamation declaring the week of February 22 - 28, 1998, as "National Engineers Week" in Palm Beach County. (Sponsored by Commissioner Roberts) 20 4H ADD-ON: Proclamation declaring the week of February 9, 1998 as "Wellington Equestrian Awareness Week" in Palm Beach County. (Sponsored by Commissioner Foster) 21 6A-3 ADD-ON: Staff recommends motion to approve: Budget Transfer of $150,000 to the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County, Inc., Cost Center from the General Fund Contingency Reserves to provide funding for Lagging Regions Development and Training Services. SUMMARY: On November 26, 1996, the Board of County Commissioners approved a two (2) year contract (R96-1942D) with the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County, Inc. in the amount of $775,000 to provide certain business recruitment and technical assistance programs for Palm Beach County. Funds for the first year of this contract came from the General Fund and $150,000 from the Economic Development Reserves Fund. When the funding was designated for this contract year, the $150,000 from the Economic Development Reserves Fund was inadvertently omitted. This budget transfer provides the balance of funds necessary to fully fund this contract. The Board provided no new funding for Economic Development except for $1,000,000 for the Job Growth Incentive Grant Program. The remaining funding for Economic Development Program activities came from rollover monies in the Economic Development Reserves Account. All of these funds have been allocated for program activities and there is no availability to fund a $150,000 contribution to the Business Development Board contract. Countywide (HF) (Admin) 23 6E-4 ADD-ON: Staff recommends a motion to approve an amendment to the Agreement with the law firm of Boose Casey Ciklin Lubitz Martens McBane & O'Connell to provide bond counsel services for the proposed refunding of County General Obligation Bonds, Series 1994 and General Obligation Bonds, Series 1991. SUMMARY: The law firm of Boose Casey Ciklin Lubitz Martens McBane & O'Connell was selected as bond counsel by the Board at the November 4th meeting. This amendment confirms that action by amending the bond counsel agreement between Palm Beach County and the law firm of Boose Casey Ciklin Lubitz Martens McBane & O'Connell, Resolution R-97-97-1192-D. Because the structure of the refunding requires a supplemental opinion by nationally recognized tax counsel, the amendment provides for reimbursement to the law firm of Fulbright & Jaworski, L.L.P., of up to $30,000 for the fee and expenses of rendering such opinion. The bond underwriter has agreed to reimburse the County $15,000 of the cost of the supplement opinioin. All attorney fees and costs are contingent upon closing and will be paid out of bond closing proceeds. Countywide (PFK) (Co Atty) 23 6E-5 ADD-ON: Staff recommends motion to approve an Agreement with the law firm of Quarles & Brady for legal services in an amount not to exceed $75,000 to assist the County Attorney in negotiating contract documents for the County's Justice Information System (JIS) between the County and Science Applications International Corporation. SUMMARY: The JIS Policy Board met on January 14, 1998 to discuss negotiating a contract with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) for upgrading the County's Judicial Information System. The JIS Policy Board agreed with staff's recommendation that the County Attorney should have the assistance of a law firm experienced with information technology contracts to assist the County Attorney's Office in reviewing the proposal made by SAIC and assisting with contract negotiations. The attorneys who will provide the expertise required by the County are J. Rodman Steele, Jr. and Robert J. Sacco. Countywide (PFK) (Co Atty) 23 6E-6 ADD-ON: Staff recommends motion to approve: A) an Amendment to the Agreement with the law firm of Cutler & Stanfield to serve as primary trial counsel in airport noise litigation. The Agreement with Cutler & Stanfield is amended to expand the scope of services in which Cutler & Stanfield will represent Palm Beach County and to amend the budgeted contract amount; B) Budget Amendment in the Airports Operations Fund (Fund 531) in the amount of $1,800,000; and C) Budget Transfer in the Airports Improvement and Development Fund (I and D Fund 533) in the amount of $1,800,000, resulting in a reduction of Airports I & D Capital Reserves in the amount of $1,800,000. SUMMARY: Cutler & Stanfield currently represents Palm Beach County in the case of The Mar-A-Lago Club, Inc. and Donald Trump vs. Palm Beach County and Bruce Pelly. The County has been advised of potential noise litigation related to airport noise being brought by Palm Beach Neighborhood Association, Inc. and a group of 42 private property owners in Palm Beach. Cutler & Stanfield is familiar with legal issues surrounding airport noise, and represents the County in the Mar-A-Lago airport noise litigation. Staff recommends that the Agreement with Cutler & Stanfield be amended to expand the scope of services and amend the budgeted contract amount for noise litigation. This amendment provides for Cutler & Stanfield to continue representation of the County in the Trump lawsuit and represent the County in the potential litigation being brought by Palm Beach Neighborhood Association, Inc., until conclusion of both cases for a total contracted amount. The Amendment provides that Cutler & Stanfield will perform all legal services for these actions, exclusive of appeals, for a total amount not to exceed $1,200,000, plus costs and expenses. Costs and expenses shall not exceed $600,000. Countywide (GPS) 24 6G-1 DELETED: a Deposit Receipt and Contract for Sale and Purchase with J.H. Norman Construction Company. (FD&O) 24 6G-2 ADD-ON: Staff recommends motion to approve: A) a Parking Agreement with Jupiter Stadium, Ltd., Abacoa Development Company, and North County Land Holdings, Ltd; and B) a Second Amendment to Declaration of Easements for Offsite Parking between Abacoa Development Company, North County Land Holdings, Ltd., Jupiter Stadium, Ltd., and Palm Beach County. SUMMARY: The initial parking plan for the spring Training Facility was that 3,000 spaces would be provided within the Town Center commercial areas at Abacoa. The 3,000 spaces would be in addition to what is required by Jupiter zoning codes to service the Town Center commercial areas. The Teams, the Town of Jupiter and the Developer of the Town Center have agreed upon a reduction from 3,000 to 2,020 in the number of spaces to be provided for the Stadium. This reduction is based upon a detailed analysis of the projected parking demands and the ability to share parking spaces with the other Town Center uses. Staff's opinion is that the parking plan will provide adequate parking, but will require visitors to the Town Center and the Stadium to spend more time looking for a parking space and to walk further that South Florida residents have been accustomed to. However, such "urban" development characteristics are exactly what the Developers of Abacoa and the Town Center are trying to create, and what the Town of Jupiter is supporting. The Parking Agreement and Second Amendment to Declaration of Easements effectuate the above described changes to the parking plan. (PREM) District 1/Countywide (HJF) 26 6I-1 DELETED: Staff recommends motion to approve: Resolution authorizing the issuance of General Obligation Refunding Bonds, in the aggregate principal amount of not exceeding $34,000,000 (estimate) for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the County's General Obligation Bonds, Series 1991 and the County's General Obligation Bonds, Series 1994, that remain outstanding; pledging the full faith, credit and taxing power of the County to secure repayment of the bonds; making certain covenants and agreements in connection therewith; awarding such bonds and authorizing execution and delivery of a bond purchase contract for such bonds; authorizing the execution of an escrow deposit agreement or agreements with the Bank of New York Trust Company of Florida, as escrow agent; authorizing the execution of a purchase instruction agreement, an acknowledgement agreement and certain other agreements in connection therewith; fixing the date, denominations, maturities, interest rates, redemption provisions and other details with respect to such bonds; authorizing the use of an official statement in connection with the distribution of such bonds and other action in connection with the issuance and delivery of such bonds; designating a paying agent and registrar for such bonds; adopting a book entry system of registration for the bonds; authorizing the proper officials of the County to do all other things deemed necessary or advisable in connection with the issuance of such bonds; providing for certain other matters in connection therewith; and providing an effective date.
