DISCUSSED WITH DIRECTION 9-21-99

Commissioner Marcus recommended postponing the item. Commissioner Aaronson recommended letting the ordinance stand until the Board had a clear idea of what the entire beautification program would encompass.

Commissioner Roberts asked how the item reached the Agenda when the Board had simply asked for information on the subject. She then made a motion to remove the item from consideration.

MOTION to remove the item from the Agenda and direct staff to schedule the subject for a workshop or provide the requested information by memorandum. Motion by Commissioner Roberts.

MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND.

(CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner Masilotti rejoined the meeting.)

County Attorney Dytrych advised taking no action at all on the item. Commissioner Marcus also said staff needed to return the item, suggesting that the ordinance would perhaps be a tool to provide funds for such things as irrigation. Commissioner Aaronson agreed, recommending that the ordinance be allowed to stand as a possible vehicle for irrigation funding. He recommended scheduling a workshop after staff had returned with completed plans for beautification.

JGAA HAS SUBMITTED A PROPOSAL REQUESTING A 15-YEAR LEASE OF APPROXIMATELY 50 ACRES OF LAND WITHIN DYER PARK TO CONSTRUCT A NINE-HOLE JUNIOR GOLF COURSE. JGAA PROPOSES TO FUND THE ESTIMATED $1.7 MILLION CONSTRUCTION COST WITH A $100,000 GRANT FROM THE FIRST TEE FOUNDATION AND ADDITIONAL FUND RAISING. IF APPROVED IN CONCEPT BY THE BOARD, THE 9-HOLE JGAA COURSE WOULD HAVE TO BE DESIGNED TO ULTIMATELY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE COUNTY'S OWN PROPOSED 18-HOLE COURSE ON THE DYER SITE. IN EXCHANGE FOR LEASE OF THE LAND, JGAA WOULD AGREE TO TRANSFER THE PROPERTY IMPROVEMENTS TO THE COUNTY AT THE TIME THE REMAINING COURSE IS BUILT AND RETAIN THE RIGHT TO ACCESS THE COURSE FOR FREE PLAY FOR ITS YOUTH PROGRAM. APPROVED 9-21-99

MOTION to approve the proposal. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Aaronson.

(CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner Newell rejoined the meeting.)

Commissioner Aaronson asked for details on the extent to which Martin County youth would have access to the course and whether this would limit availability of the course to Palm Beach County youth. Chuck Reynolds, president of Junior Golf and Academics of America, assured him that the course would be used exclusively by youth from Palm Beach County.

Commissioner Roberts proposed making the course available to Martin County youth if that could be done without diminishing the availability of the course to Palm Beach County youth. Commissioner Aaronson said he had no difficulty with this proposal as long as Palm Beach County youth were not displaced. Commissioners Masilotti, Lee, and Marcus all praised this private-public project.

UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 6-0. Commissioner McCarty absent.

ITEMS PULLED FROM THE CONSENT AGENDA

3.I.6. DOCUMENT R-99-1683-D

MORTGAGE AND NOTE MODIFICATION AGREEMENT WITH LINDA HOGUE TO ADJUST THE TERMS OF THE INDEBTEDNESS CREATED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY REHABILITATION PROGRAM. THIS AGREEMENT ADJUSTS THE TERMS OF INDEBTEDNESS CREATED THROUGH A MORTGAGE FOR $21,616, EXECUTED BY MS. HOGUE IN CONNECTION WITH FUNDING SHE RECEIVED THROUGH THE PROPERTY REHABILITATION PROGRAM IN 1997. SHE IS NOW DISABLED AND, BASED ON HER PRESENT FIXED INCOME, WOULD QUALIFY AS A DISABLED VERY-VERY-LOW INCOME APPLICANT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CURRENT PROGRAM POLICIES. THIS WOULD MAKE HER ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A CONDITIONAL GRANT FOR THE ENTIRE AMOUNT. AUTHORIZATION IS REQUESTED TO MODIFY THIS INDEBTEDNESS, SPECIFIED IN ONE OF THE PROMISSORY NOTES, FROM A REPAYABLE LOAN TO A CONDITIONAL GRANT. THE REQUESTED FUNDS ARE FEDERAL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT DOLLARS THAT REQUIRE NO LOCAL MATCH. APPROVED 9-21-99

Commissioner Roberts said that only by voting against the item could she express her dissatisfaction with it. She asked Remar Harvin, director of Housing and Community Development, for an explanation of the item. Originally, the funds had been divided equally into a grant and a loan, Mr. Harvin explained. Given Ms. Hogue's disability, she would be eligible for the entire amount as a conditional grant, were she to apply today, he continued. He was therefore requesting authorization to convert the remaining unpaid balance of the original loan portion to a grant. He apologized for any ambiguity that might have resulted from the way the executive brief of the item was drafted.

Commissioner Masilotti asked whether the requirement that Ms. Hogue continue to reside in the house and not offer it for sale for a certain period would apply to the requested conditional grant. Mr. Harvin responded that the restriction would apply for 11 years from the date of approval. Should the property be sold before the expiration of that period, the County would recover funds owed it from the proceeds of the sale.

Commissioner Marcus suggested holding a workshop to review the criteria for making Community Development Block Grants. Commissioners Roberts and Aaronson asked how the condition of properties on which loans were made was monitored. The department had three inspectors, Mr. Harvin answered, but they could not conduct yearly inspections on each encumbered property. Commissioner Aaronson joined Commissioner Marcus in suggesting a workshop, adding that staff should visit all the Commissioners to learn what questions each had and then return to the workshop with answers. Deputy County Administrator Miller said there was time available on the October 26, 1999, workshop date. He also recommended conducting the workshop no later than November 23, 1999.

UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 5-1. Commissioner Roberts opposed. Commissioner McCarty absent.

11.A.2.

REPORTING OF CITY OF BELLE GLADE ELECTION RESULTS ON CHANNEL 20. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Commissioner Masilotti reported that, because the scheduling of elections in the City of Belle Glade does not coincide with elections in much of the rest of the County, election results are not broadcast on Channel 20 for Belle Glade as they are for most other municipalities. He therefore proposed that election results for the City of Belle Glade be broadcast on Channel 20 even though they were not scheduled on the same day as those in the majority of County municipalities.

MOTION to approve the broadcasting of election results on Channel 20 for those municipalities with election days different from the majority of County municipalities and to absorb the cost of such broadcasts. Each municipality will be responsible for reporting its election results to Channel 20. Motion by Commissioner Aaronson and seconded by Commissioner Masilotti.

Commissioner Masilotti explained that the scheduling of elections in the City of Belle Glade was determined by the occurrence of the fall harvest. Commissioner Roberts noted that the motion should include approval of changes in the budget for Channel 20 that are caused by the additional effort involved in reporting these results.

AMENDED MOTION to include approval of changes in the budget for Channel 20 caused by the additional effort involved in reporting these election results. The maker and seconder agreed.

FEE FOR MOTHER-IN-LAW UNITS. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF CONTINUED FUNDING FOR REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCILS. DISCUSSED WITH DIRECTION 9-21-99

Commissioner Roberts asked that a resolution be drafted and returned to the next meeting that would call for permanent and consistent funding for regional planning councils.

MOTION to draft and return the resolution. Motion by Commissioner Roberts and seconded by Commissioner Marcus.

There was a movement in the Legislature, she continued, to shift the duties of the regional planning councils to the counties: in effect, another unfunded mandate. It was her hope, she said, that the resolution would help avoid this.

Commissioner Aaronson said Commissioner McCarty had asked him to bring up the subject of this lease and request that it be returned to the Board at the next meeting. Deputy County Administrator Miller reminded the Board that it had earlier determined not to lease this property again for such a purpose. Commissioner Marcus suggested giving Commissioner McCarty a copy of that action and allowing her to bring the subject up if she chose.

DISCREPANCIES IN OCCUPATIONAL LICENSE ORDINANCE. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Commissioner Marcus noted certain discrepancies in the various categories of the County's occupational licensing ordinance. As an example she cited the requirement that the ordinance required the licensing of every broker in a mortgage broker's office but did not require that of a realtor's office. She suggested that the County Attorney and the Tax Collector confer in order to eliminate these discrepancies.

Commissioner Newell also noted that many professions were required to obtain licenses from the County as well as from certain municipalities. He suggested involving the municipalities in the process. Commissioner Aaronson warned against the possibility of what he called "gang licensing." Commissioner Roberts observed that the state required certain professionals to be licensed and asked that such a requirement be considered in the examination of the ordinance.

13TH STREET FUNDING. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Commissioner Marcus reported on the recommendation of the Municipal Planning Organization (MPO), which was that the County, the City of Riviera Beach, and the Port of Palm Beach each contribute $2 million to the widening of 13th Street in Riviera Beach from Alternate A1A to the Port of Palm Beach. The MPO had further recommended that any grants that became available for the funding be applied to all three parties, she said. Since that recommendation was made, she continued, the City of Riviera Beach and the Port of Palm Beach had held further discussions resulting in the city's decision to apply for a $2 million Enterprise Florida grant, which it wants credited to the city's financial commitment. Commissioner Marcus said she understood that the Port of Palm Beach had agreed to this commitment of funds but that the approval of the Board would also be required. The next meeting was scheduled for October 13, 1999, she said.

Commissioners Lee and Masilotti both assented to the commitment of funds by the City of Riviera Beach.

11.F.2.

PROPOSED REVISION TO HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION ELIGIBILITY FOR THOSE AGED 65 AND OVER. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Commissioner Lee reported that her office had received a letter from State Representative Ken Pruitt concerning a change to eligibility requirements for the Homestead Exemption. She said a number of constituents had been in touch with her office on this issue and then requested a summary of the matter from County Attorney Dytrych. Ms. Dytrych said the letter, which asserted that the County had no choice but to support the proposed revision to the Homestead Exemption, had been in error. In fact, she continued, the County could take whatever action it wished.

Commissioner Marcus said the fiscal impact of any change would need to be determined before the item was put on the agenda. Representative Pruitt, she said, was making the item a campaign issue. Commissioner Roberts said she would need to know how many units in the County would be affected.

Deputy County Administrator Miller said staff could prepare a memorandum on the effect the proposed change would have on tax revenues in the unincorporated area of the County. It was his understanding, he added, that the change would cost between $3.5 and $3.8 million. Richard Roberts, director of the Office of Financial Management and Budget said the impact would be $3.8 million, Countywide, within the Board's jurisdiction alone. The municipalities would have to take action separately, he said. The schools, he concluded, could take no action on the issue.

Commissioner Aaronson agreed that knowing fiscal impact was foremost. He said further that he did not wish to become involved in what was clearly becoming a campaign issue. How, he asked, would taxing authorities identify a household with income less than $20,000 per year; how would it be possible to guard against fraud? These questions had to be answered. Then, he concluded, it would be necessary to determine which services might no longer be provided without this revenue. Commissioner Roberts added that the sources of income that would be considered were not adequately spelled out. Commissioner Masilotti added that staff needed to report to the Board no later than December 1, 1999.

Ms. Dytrych said the Board's direction was clear.

9. MATTERS BY PUBLIC - 2:00 P.M.

9.A.

COST OF ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE LANDS BOND REFERENDUM. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Ed McJobian asked about the cost to taxpayers of the bond referendum. Deputy County Administrator Miller answered that the cost had been figured on property appraised in the $125,000-$150,000 range. Commissioner Aaronson later said the information presented on the bond issue was based on the valuation of a typical residence.

9.B.

REMOVAL OF SIGNS FROM MEDIANS. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Ed McJobian complained that the roadways were littered with signs and recommended that the County assign workers to weekend shifts in order to remove them more promptly. Deputy County Administrator Miller said staff would study flexible schedules for Code Enforcement workers, adding that these signs were not a high priority.

9.C.

EMERGENCY INFORMATION BROADCASTS ON CHANNEL 20. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Ed McJobian pointed out that, during Hurricane Floyd, Channel 20 was broadcasting employment opportunities rather than hurricane emergency information. He recommended broadcasting such information on Channel 20 from Commission Chambers. Mr. Miller responded that the broadcasts should originate from the Emergency Operations Center. Mr. McJobian complained that the announcement of resumption of services was inadequate, asking whether there had even been such an announcement.

Commissioner Aaronson pointed out that Assistant County Administrator Bonvento was on the local commercial channels every three or four hours during the emergency. He reached far more households over those channels than would have been possible over Channel 20, he said. He also said he would speak with Solid Waste Authority management about announcing resumption of services on the public media as well as on Channel 20.

9.D.

REVISION OF HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION ELIGIBILITY FOR THOSE AGED 65 AND OVER. DISCUSSED 9-21-99

Louise E. Buie asked the Board how it planned to respond to the item from the November 1998 ballot concerning a change to the eligibility requirements for the Homestead Exemption for those taxpayers 65 and over with incomes less than $20,000 per year.

Commissioner Masilotti responded by saying that staff had been directed to research the subject and return to the Board. Commissioner Lee said her office would inform Mrs. Buie when the report was in hand.

(CLERK'S NOTE: At 2:25 p.m., the Chair announced the Board would take up its 2:00 p.m. workshop item, "Traffic Performance Standards -- Public Facilities Exemption." See separate minutes of this date for adjournment.)
