Commissioner Marcus recommended that the issue be discussed with the Legislative Delegation during the workshop scheduled for February 24, 1999. Commissioner Masilotti stated concern that law-abiding residents could be inconvenienced by the ordinance requirements. He agreed that gun shows should hire licensed dealers to handle sales transactions because firearms were sold at gun shows without background checks. Commissioner Aaronson contended the Board should support the ordinance because the constitutional amendment reflected the wishes of the majority of the voters and the ordinance was in compliance. MOTION to adopt the ordinance. Motion by Commissioner Aaronson and seconded by Commissioner Masilotti.

(P.O.P. 554401) APPROVED WITH DATE CHANGE TO APRIL 20, 1999, WITH DIRECTION 2-23-99 Commissioner Marcus commented there was a concern as to whether a Northlake Boulevard property owner was allowed to shape his trees in a form referred to as lollipopping. Code Enforcement Director Terry Verner explained that:
Commissioner Aaronson noted there were full-grown trees in his district that were lollipop-shaped and were beautiful. He questioned if they would be affected by the ordinance. Staff responded those trees had reached maturity and were in compliance with the code, therefore, the owners would be allowed to continue to shape them in the same manner. In response to Commissioner Roberts' query regarding the shaping of trees that did not grow to a 20-foot canopy, staff suggested an owner could submit a landscape plan to the Zoning Division. Commissioner Roberts said the requirement for a landscape plan for the shaping of one or two trees was not financially feasible. Staff explained that if a small commercial site wanted to replace or add additional trees, they were not required to have a landscape plan. The plan was required for an overall site landscaping. Commissioner Roberts asked staff to meet with her to address her concerns. Commissioner Aaronson stressed there should be a distinction in the ordinance between commercial and planned unit development regarding the shaping of trees. He recommended the language be stated so that property owners clearly understood what type of tree trimming was in violation. County Administrator Weisman stated that staff would meet with Commissioners before the second public hearing to address their concerns. PUBLIC COMMENT: None Commissioner Roberts questioned the requirement that a temporary real estate sales office should cease operation when there were less than three units remaining to be sold. Staff explained that several planned unit developments (PUD) had mobile homes or temporary structures on them for 15 years because the developer would not sell the last property in order to remain on the site. Commissioner Aaronson explained the developer remained on site in order to be the agent for the resale of the homes within the PUD. Commissioner Roberts suggested a requirement that prohibited the use of a temporary building for the sales office. Commissioner Aaronson informed the Board that he would not be present at the March 16 meeting. Staff advised that the final public hearing could be scheduled for April. MOTION to approve first public hearing and advertise for second public hearing on April 20, 1999, at 9:30 a.m. Motion by Commissioner Marcus and seconded by Commissioner Aaronson. PUBLIC COMMENT: None Commissioner Roberts stated concern with shared parking and reserved space requirements. Commissioner Masilotti requested clarification of the plan for extra space requirements. Staff was asked to meet with the Commissioners to address their concerns before the April 20 meeting. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 6-0. Commissioner McCarty absent. 4.I.

Staff responded that the foundation was entering into an arrangement to utilize the track, which belonged to the fair, when the County was not using it. The County, therefore, was not liable. (CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner Lee left the meeting.) Commissioner Aaronson queried the County's need for a resolution in support when the project was between the Marksz Foundation and the fair.

Motion by Commissioner Roberts and seconded by Commissioner Aaronson. Commissioner Newell asked the Board to be present at the state Attorney General's press conference on the issue Friday at 2:00 p.m. He suggested the Board have some indication as to its position regarding the County's proposed ordinance on title loan companies to present to Attorney General Robert A. Butterworth. Assistant County Administrator Vince Bonvento said staff was seeking Board direction regarding whether the ordinance would be Countywide; whether fee-supported or by ad valorem taxes; establishment of a maximum annual interest rate; and surety bond requirements and the amount, if any. The Board informally agreed to Countywide, fee-supported, and security bond ordinance requirements, with the interest rate to be later determined. Mr. Bonvento pointed out there were 41 registered title loan companies that would be subject to the ordinance, so the fee might have to be substantially high in order for it to be self-sufficient. Commissioner Aaronson asked staff to return with information on the fiscal impact of the ordinance. He contended it should not be subsidized by the County and to ensure the fees go up 3 percent each year to keep up with the Consumer Price Index (CPI). UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 6-0.

APPROVED 2-23-99 MOTION to approve Ernst and Young as first-ranked proposer and authorize staff to negotiate a contract with the firm. Motion by Commissioner Roberts and seconded by Commissioner Marcus. Commissioner Masilotti stated he would like to have been present during the presentations of the top-ranked firms because it was a very important long-term contract. Commissioner Roberts interjected that the Board had been invited to the presentations. Commissioner Newell said that he was unaware of the invitation. He agreed with Commissioner Masilotti and suggested the top-ranked firms make a presentation to the Board. Chief Deputy County Attorney Gordon P. Selfridge advised that the selection process allowed the Board to either accept the recommendation of staff and the Purchasing Committee or hear presentations by the top two firms. Commissioners Aaronson and Marcus stated approval of staff's recommendation. SUBSTITUTE MOTION to have both firms make a presentation to the Board at a date to be determined. Motion by Commissioner Newell, seconded by Commissioner Masilotti and FAILED 3-3. Commissioners Aaronson, Marcus and Roberts opposed. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, on the original motion, the motion FAILED 3-3. Commissioners Lee, Masilotti and Newell opposed. County Attorney Dytrych advised that the item could be reconsidered when all Commissioners were present. It was determined that all of the Commissioners would not be present until April. Commissioner Aaronson said an item was brought back whenever someone contested the selection process; this, however, was not the case. It was brought out postponement of the item until April could cause problems because of the time frame of the current contract. Commissioner Masilotti said selection of audit consultants was a high-profile issue with a contract of approximately $12 Million. The public might want to view the presentations and know why the selection was made. He did not desire a hardship for the Finance Department by not having the auditing matter concluded. MOTION to approve Ernst and Young as first-ranked proposer and authorize staff to negotiate a contract with the firm and approve KPMG as the second-ranked proposer. Motion by Commissioner Marcus and seconded by Commissioner Roberts. Commissioner Roberts commented that both firms were excellent. She chose Ernst and Young because they were a local company whose managers would be available when needed; KPMG's managers would not. Commissioner Aaronson noted the Board had approved many requests for proposal at costs of approximately $12 Million without having viewed presentations by the firms.

CODE ENFORCEMENT ISSUES TO BE HANDLED ADMINISTRATIVELY. DISCUSSED WITH DIRECTION 2-23-99 Commissioner Newell stated he had been contacted by people who wanted to settle Code Enforcement liens that had been levied due to minor technicalities. The liens had gone unaddressed until the fines had reached enormous amounts. He requested staff develop a process whereby such matters would be handled administratively instead of property owners contacting Board members. County Administrator Weisman stated that staff would address the matter and report back to the Board. No backup submitted. 8.D. COMMISSIONER BURT AARONSON 8.D.1. JURY TRIALS AT THE SOUTH COUNTY COURTHOUSE. DISCUSSED 2-23-99 In response to concerns from residents regarding having jury trials at the South County Courthouse, Commissioner Aaronson reported he had met with Chief Judge Walter N. Colbath, Jr., to discuss the matter. Judge Colbath said he would submit recommendations as to cost and associated issues.

Chief Deputy County Attorney Selfridge commented that:
Commissioner Aaronson concurred with the use of special masters. Commissioner Marcus asked the issue be placed on a future Board Agenda for consideration. No backup submitted. 8.E.3. MUTUAL OF NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY'S OFFER. DISCUSSED WITH DIRECTION 2-23-99 Commissioner Marcus reported Mutual of New York Life Insurance Company had offered to review the County's benefit program and explain to employees what actual benefits they have. The services were offered at no cost to the County. She requested Board authorization to allow the company to provide its services. MOTION to allow Mutual of New York Life Insurance Company to provide its services to County employees. Motion by Commissioner Marcus and seconded by Commissioner Roberts. County Administrator Weisman stated the company provided the services as indicated by Commissioner Marcus, but as a part of that program, tries to sell insurance to the employees. The County had received similar competitive offers in the past which the Board did not pursue. He had submitted information to the Board on the issue several months ago. Should the Board decide to move forward with the program, staff recommended that it go out for competitive proposals. Commissioner Aaronson maintained employees should be informed they were not obligated to purchase insurance. Any other company proposing like service should be given the same opportunity. Mr. Weisman asked for authorization to place the item on a future Agenda. He said the Board would have to make a sole source determination as well as whether there would be mandatory attendance by employees. Commissioner Roberts interjected that she did not see a need for a sole source determination when the services were offered at no cost. Commissioner Marcus suggested moving forward with the proposal, and asking the company to submit a contract detailing its services and stating no cost to the County. Commissioner Newell said the issue should be placed on a future Agenda to allow for proper review and discussion. Commissioner Aaronson said mandatory employee attendance should not be required. Staff was authorized to place the item on a future Agenda. (CLERK'S NOTE: There was not a withdrawal of the motion.) No backup submitted. 8.E.4.
