Nov 15, 2022 Finance and Audit Meeting Agenda

[1.  Agreement with Playcore Wisconsin dba GameTime for Playground Equipment (ARPA Project) (J. Pierce)]

[00:02:10]

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN THE PARKS NEED IT.

>> WE HAVE A PLAYGROUND REPLACEMENT PLAN.

WE HAVE A PLAN IN PLACE TO REPLACE THE PLAYGROUNDS.

SOME ARE OLDER, 2002 AND 2003. WE ARE WORKING A LITTLE BIT BEHIND CATCHING BACK UP. WE WORK WITH VENDORS TO ASSESS THE CONDITIONS OF OUR PLAYGROUNDS.

WE WILL RECEIVE PROPOSALS AND MOVE FORWARD FROM THERE.

WE HAVE A FEW LOCATIONS. BOX MEADOW IS ONE, THUNDERBOLT PARK IS ANOTHER. BOTH OF THOSE LOCATIONS WERE I BELIEVE 2004, 2005. ALONG WITH MOCCASIN SALUTE.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: THOSE MIGHT BE REPLACED IN THE NEXT

TWO YEARS THEN? >> IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: SO THOSE WILL BE AT THE SAME PRICE THEN?

[2.  Agreement with The Southern Group of Florida, Inc. (C. Latham)]

- - >> CHAIR RENNINGER: WE WILL PUT IT ON THE CONSENT. ITEM NUMBER TWO IS AGREEMENT WITH THE SOUTHERN GROUP. CHARLIE?

YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE CHARLIE. >> I AM NOT.

I'M GOING TO HELP CHARLIE OUT. THIS IS THE AGREEMENT BASED ON THE BOARD SELECTION OF THE SOUTHERN GROUP.

AS YOU SEE, THE FEE IS 6000 A MONTH FOR $72,000 ANNUALLY FOR A THREE YEAR AGREEMENT. CHARLIE IS READY TO GET STARTED WITH THEM AND THEY ARE SAYING PRE-SESSIONS, SCOPE OF WORK LISTED WITHIN HERE. SESSION IS MARCH THROUGH MAY 2023. AS SOON IS IT IS SIGNED, I AM SURE HE WILL START WORKING WITH THEM.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE THE IDEAS THEY, BUT IN THE RECOMMENDATIONS THEY MAKE.

[3.  Advance Payment for the purchase of a Pumper and Ladder Truck for the Public Safety Department (J. Boree)]

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: I HAVE SEEN SOMETHING FROM THEM ALREADY AND THERE ARE GOOD CLIENTS. WE'LL PUT THAT ON THE CONSENT.

THANK YOU. I WILL REPORT TO CHARLIE THAT YOU DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. ITEM NUMBER THREE IS ADVANCED PAYMENT FOR A PUMPER AND LADDER TRUCK FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY

DEPARTMENT. >> YES, SIR.

WE ARE SEEKING ADVANCED PAYMENT FOR AS YOU SAID A LADDER TRUCK AND A NEW PUMPER TRUCK. AS PER OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT

PROJECTS. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: THESE ARE PRETTY EXPENSIVE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT.

>> YES, SIR. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: THEY COME

WITH FANCY HUBCAPS? >> YES, SIR.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: HAS IT INCREASED QUITE A BIT LIKE

EVERYTHING ELSE? >> YES, AND ACTUALLY WITH THE HELP OF MRS. THOMAS AS WELL, WE WERE ABLE TO GET AHEAD OF A

6.5% COST INCREASE ON THIS. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: THAT WAS MY

[00:05:01]

1 TO AVOID THAT INCREASE. DID WE ORDER IT?>> WE DID A LETTEROF INTENT WITH AN ORGANIZATION.

YES, SIR. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SEEING IT THIS SOON IN THE BUDGET . SO WE CAN PROVIDE THE FUNDING WITH THE LETTER OF INTENT TO FOLLOW UP WITH IT.

SO WE KEEP THE SAME PRICING. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: THERE

WAS A DISCOUNT I SAW, RIGHT? >> THERE'S A PREPAYMENT DISCOUNT. 72,000 ON THE LADDER TRUCK AND I BELIEVE 24,000 OR $26,000 DISCOUNT ON THE PUMPER.

THE PUMPER HAD A QUICKER TURNAROUND TIME THAN THE LATTER. THAT'S WHY THE DISCOUNT WITH THE PERFORMANCE BOND IS DIFFERENT BETWEEN THE TWO.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET IT?

[LAUGHTER] >> TWO YEARS IS ABOUT THE AVERAGE. THE PUMPER WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET A LITTLE QUICKER. BUT THE LADDER TRUCK WILL BE THE FULL 24 ? 28 MONTH TIME PERIOD.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: JUST FOR THE PUBLIC INFORMATION, THE

LADDER TRUCK WEIGHS IN AT $1.3 MILLION.>> JUST SHY OF THAT.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: THESE ARE NOT INEXPENSIVE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT. THEY COST A LOT OF MONEY TO

PROVIDE PUBLIC SAFETY. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: CONSENT.

[4.  Supplemental Agreement with AT&T for Emergency Services IP Network (ESInet) – Next Gen 911 Solution Managed Services (D. Hane / D. Barro)]

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: OKAY. ITEM NUMBER FOUR IS A SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR AT&T FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES IP

NETWORK. >> GOOD AFTERNOON COMMISSIONERS. HOW ARE YOU GUYS TODAY? WE ARE SEEKING APPROVAL TO CHANGE OUR LEVEL OF SERVICE WITH OUR EXISTING AT&T 9-1-1 TELEPHONE DELIVERY STATUS.

TO WHAT IS CALLED AN 17, ESINET, EMERGENCY SERVICES IP NETWORK. THERE ARE PLENTY OF ADVANTAGES.

I'M SURE YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: WHY? WHAT ARE WEGOING TO SEE WITH THIS UPGRADE?

>> MORE RELIABILITY, MORE RESILIENCY , AND MORE CONSISTENCY ON OUR 9-1-1 TELEPHONE DELIVERIES.

WHEN I SAY THAT, LET'S REMEMBER THAT WE HAVE FOUR DIFFERENT 9-1-1 CENTERS IN CLAY COUNTY. THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE HAS THE PRIMARY WHICH IS THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING POINT.

WE HAVE GREENCOVE SPRINGS PD , ORANGE PARK PD AND WE HAVE CLAY COUNTY FIRE RESCUE. AS OF LAST FISCAL YEAR, WE RAN JUST OVER 114,000 9-1-1 CALLS COLLECTIVELY.

ABOUT 25,000 TWO CLAY COUNTY FIRE AND RESCUE.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: HOW LONG OF A PERIOD WAS THAT?

>> IT WAS THE LAST FISCAL YEAR. WE ARE SEEING ON THE TRENDLINE OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS GROW AND GROW.

THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED WITH THE POPULATION INCREASE.

CERTAINLY WHEN WE HAD THE INTERSTATE GOING THROUGH OR WHEN 23 GET FINISHED, THERE WILL BE A TON MORE TRAFFIC.

WE EXPECT HIGHER CALL VOLUMES. WE ARE BUILDING PLENTY MORE HOUSES. I COULD TELL YOU THAT I WORK CLOSELY WITH FIRE AND RESCUE AND YOU CAN SEE THE DEMAND GOING UP. THEY ARE STAFFING UP ALREADY THIS YEAR. YOU JUST SAW EQUIPMENT PURCHASES. GETTING BACK TO THE ESINET, IT IS A PERFORMANCE SITUATION. WE NEED TO BE IN THE SPOT WHERE OUR 9-1-1 CALL DELIVERY AND PERFORMANCE IS TOP-NOTCH.

WE ARE OKAY AND GETTING BY TODAY.

BUT IT IS AN ANALOG ARCHITECTURE.

IT IS OLD AND WE HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH CALL QUALITY IN SOME CASES. DEPENDING ON WHO IS ORIGINATING THE CALL. WE HAVE A NUMBER OFWIRELESS CARRIERS THAT ORIGINATE CALLS , LAND LINES, LONG DISTANCE, BOYD CALLS. BECAUSE WE HAVE A FAIR AMOUNT OF ANALOG ARCHITECTURE WE HAVE ANALOG TO DIGITAL AUDIO CONVERSIONS AND IT IS NOT CLEAN.

MOVING TO ANOTHER ARCHITECTURE, WE GO INTO FULL ETHERNET INTERNET, THEY CALL IT SESSION INITIATED PROTOCOL FOR THE 9-1-1 CALL DELIVERY. AND THEN THE ARCHITECTURE IS A LITTLE MORE CENTRALIZED. WE ARE DEALING WITH ONE VENDOR INSTEAD OF MANY VENDORS. IN TODAY'S WORLD, WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH VERIZON PARTICULAR DROP, T-MOBILE, ALL OF THE CARRIERS. THAT IS REALLY ON US.

THAT ALL GETS CENTRALIZED MOVING FORWARD BEHIND THE AT&T

ESINET UMBRELLA. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: WHAT WE

[00:10:03]

HAVE NOW THAT IS NOT SO GOOD? >> I DON'T WANT TO SAY HODGEPODGE BUT WE CALL IT LEGACY.

WHAT THAT MEANS IS, WE HAVE A NUMBER OF CONNECTIONS THAT ARE ALL INDIVIDUALIZED AND WE HAD TO DEALWITH EACH ONE SEPARATELY . IT IS A LITTLE BIT OF A PROBLEM

FOR US. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: HOW LONG

HAVE WE HAD THAT? >> A WHILE.

I HAVE NOT BEEN HERE THAT LONG BUT I RECALL THROUGH MY CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR PHONE FOLKS THAT WE ARE PROBABLY CLOSE TO 10 YEARS WITH THIS TECHNOLOGY.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: WHY IS IT WE HAVE NOT CHANGED BEFORE

NOW? >> PROBABLY BECAUSE NOBODY HAS BEEN IN THE ROLE. CLAY COUNTY HAS BEEN GROWING RECENTLY. THERE HAS BEEN ALOT OF MOVEMENT OVER THE LAST MANY YEARS TRYING TO FILL SPOTS .

TRYING TO KIND OF GET BY. I AM GRATEFUL FOR OUR MODEL TODAY, RIGHT? WE ARE DOING WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE DONE A WHILE AGO. WE HAVE HIRED A DEDICATED 9-1-1 COORDINATOR. WE HAVE HIRED A DEDICATED PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO PERSON. ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE THE STEPS TO WHAT I WOULD CALL LEVELING UP.

THIS IS OUR PROCESS OF LIVING IT.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: AND YOU WERE HIRED, TOO.

[LAUGHTER] >> WE HAVE A GOODTEAM.

WE HAVE A GOOD LEADERSHIP GROUP .

I AM GRATEFUL FOR THAT. BUT WHAT I CAN TELL YOU ABOUT THIS IS, IT IS THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT REASON.

WE HAVE A NUMBER OF IMPROVEMENTS.

OUR TEXT MESSAGING AND OUR TEXT TO 9-1-1 WILL BE A LOT BETTER.

THIS IS THE PIPE TO PUT US ON THE PLATFORM FOR WHAT WE CALL NEXT-GENERATION 9-1-1. NEXT-GENERATION 9-1-1 ARE ALL OF THE ADDITIONAL SERVICES THAT WILL BE COMING LATER, RIGHT? AND THOSE WILL BE SENDING PHOTOS TO THE 9-1-1 CENTER.

THEY WILL BE SENDING VIDEOS. LOCATION SERVICES WILL COMPLETELY CHANGE. SO WE WILL HAVE A LOT MORE ACCURACY LOCATING CALLERS. WHEN WE ARE IN A SEARCH AND RESCUE SITUATION IN THE FORESTS, THAT IS A BIG DEAL.

INUTES AND SECONDS, IT ALL MAKES A DIFFERENCE. KIND OF FEEL BAD IN ONE SENSE THAT WE ARE A LITTLE BIT BEHIND THE CURVE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS.OST OF OUR NEIGHBORS ARE IMPLEMENTING OR ARE ALREADY ON ESINET PLATFORMS NOW.

WE HAVE A STEEP HILL TO CLIMB AT THE MOMENT.

BUT WE HAVE TAKEN IT ONE STEP AT A TIME AND HERE WE ARE.

IT IS OUR TURN TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND TAKE A SWING.

AGAIN, IT IS THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT REASON.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO IMPLEMENT THIS?

>> IT WILL BE BETWEEN NINE ? 12 MONTHS AFTER WE EXECUTE THE CONTRACT. AT&T SAYS THEY ARE GENERALLY COMFORTABLE AT EIGHT MONTHS. THIS WILL BE MY THIRD ONE AND

IT WILL BE NINE ? 12 MONTHS. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: I AM

GOOD. >> CHAIR RENNINGER:MAYBE I MISHEARD, IS THERE A BIG DISPARITY BETWEEN T-MOBILE, AT&T , COMCAST WITH CALLS COMINGIN? I THOUGHT THEY WERE ALL DIGITAL .

>> ON THE WIRELESS SIDE, IT IS NOT EXACTLY THE SAME.

THEY ARE ON WHAT IS CALLED A TDM PLATFORM, TIME DOMAIN MULTIPLEXING. THAT IS STILL IN ANALOG VERSION. THAT IS WHAT WE CALL A T-1.

THAT IS A BLOCK OF TIME WITH 24 TIMESLOTS IN IT AND YOU SHARE THAT.WE STILL RELY ON ANALOG LINES.

WE HAVE HAD PLENTY OF ANALOG LINE TROUBLES, PARTICULARLY IN GREEN COVE . AFTER THE LAST FEW MONTHS, WE WILL ELIMINATE THAT. WE WILL GET OFF OF THE COPPER LINES AND GET ONTO THE INTERNET.

PACKETS, ERROR RATES, IF WE MISS A PACKET WE CAN RESEND IT.

THIS COMES BACK TO US LEVELING UP OUR RELIABILITY AND CAPABILITIES OF OUR 9-1-1 TELEPHONE DELIVERY SYSTEM.

DEAN BELIEVES THAT 9-1-1 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SYSTEM WE HAVE HERE IN CLAY COUNTY. IT IS OUR JOB TO RECEIVE AND PROVIDE THAT SERVICE TO EVERYBODY.

AND THAT SERVICE IS MORE AND MORE IN DEMAND.

WE SEE AT ALL OF THE TIME. TRAININGS, STAFFING, ALL OF OUR 9-1-1 CENTERS ARE HAVING STAFF TROUBLES.

FIRE RESCUE HAS DONE A PRETTY DARN GOOD JOB GETTING OUT OF A JAM. IT IS A SERVICE THAT 7/24/365.

IT IS THE RESILIENCY, THE REDUNDANCY AND THE RESPONSE ABILITY TO KEEP THIS THING GOING.

[5.  Seventh Amendment to Agreement No. 2010/2011-57 with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of FL, Inc. for Administrative Services (J. Bethelmy)]

[00:15:03]

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: CONSENT. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: WILL PUT IT ON THE CONTENT. THANK YOU.

ITEM NUMBER FIVE IS SEVENTH AMENDMENT TO THE BLUE CROSS

BLUE SHIELD CONTRACT. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: JENNIFER B.

THIS AGREEMENT WE HAD ON SEPTEMBER 27 AT THE BOARD MEETING. THE BOARD DID APPROVE FOR US TO MOVE FORWARD TO CODIFY THIS AGREEMENT WITH FLORIDA BLUE.

IT IS A THREE YEAR AGREEMENT AND CAPTURES THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES THE COUNTY PAYS FOR THE USE OF PROCESSING CLAIMS THROUGH THE FLORIDA BLUE NETWORK.

IT ALSO INCLUDES A THREE YEAR WELLNESS MONIES AT $100,000 EACH YEAR FOR THE LIFE OF THE AGREEMENT.

AS WELL AS ANY PHARMACEUTICAL ARRANGEMENTS THAT WE HAVE WITH

FLORIDA BLUE. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: I DO NOT

HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.>> CHAIR RENNINGER: THE WELLNESS PAYMEN

, WHAT IS OUR PLAN FOR THAT? >> WE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO A VACANT POSITION THAT WE HAVE. WE ARE RECRUITING FOR.

THAT IS TO INCLUDE MORE WELLNESS INITIATIVES WITH THE COUNTY. WHETHER IT IS THROUGHOUT THE ACTIVE STAFF BASE AND THE GOAL IS TO USE THOSE MONIES THAT WE WOULD GET THROUGH THE CONTRACT TO HELP IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS OF OUR POPULATION. THE EXPECTATION IS THAT IT WILL HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON THE LEVEL OF CLAIMS THAT WE HAVE.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF IT.

[6.  First Amendment to Agreement No. 2021/2022-208 with the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection regarding the Flooding Vulnerability Assessment Grant (M. Mosley)]

THANK YOU.ITEM NUMBER SIX, FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT NO. 2021/22-208 STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. >> THIS AMENDMENT WAS ACTUALLY INITIATED BY DEP. THERE ARE THREE ATTACHMENTS TO OUR GRANT AGREEMENTS. THEY HAD REVISIONS FOR THE REQUEST. ATTACHMENTS NUMBER ONE AND TWO ARE STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE GRANT.

THE GRANT DIVISION AND OUR COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE HAVE REVIEWED THESE AND HAD NO CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS REGARDING THEM. AND THEN ATTACHMENT THREE ISTHE GRANT WORK PLAN . THE ONLY CHANGE HERE WAS THE CLAUSE ABOUT CONSEQUENCES FOR NONPERFORMANCE.DEP IS SAYING WE MUST PROVIDE 100% DELIVERABLES TO RECEIVE 100% REIMBURSEMENT. THAT IS TYPICAL WITH MOST OF OUR GRANT AGREEMENTS. AT THIS POINT, WE ARE JUST ASKING TO EXECUTE THE AMENDMENT TO UPDATE THE LANGUAGE.

ANY QUESTIONS? >> CHAIR RENNINGER: THIS STUDY IS BEING DONE BY JONES EDMUNDS? IS THAT CORRECT? GIVE ME A THUMBNAILSKETCH OF WHEN THEY START AND FINISH.

I SAW THE PLAN . >> YES

[LAUGHTER] >> CHAIR RENNINGER: TAYLOR IS GOING TO GIVE US THE PLAN. I THOUGHT YOU DIDROADS ?

>> AND ALSO WATER. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: WATER IS THE ANTITHESIS OFROADS. IF YOU HAVE TOO MUCH WATER YOU

DON'T HAVE ROADS. >> TAYLOR ABERNATHY , JONES EDMUNDS IS OUR CONSULTANT WHO IS CONDUCTING OUR STORMWATER MASTER PLAN. WE SIGNED, THE CONTRACT WAS SIGNED AND APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR.

WE HAVE ALREADY STARTED INTO THAT PROCESS.

WE WILL BE BRINGING AN UPDATE TO THE COMMISSION HERE NOVEMBER 22. TO KIND OF GO OVER WHAT WE'VE DONE SO FAR. VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS IS ONE OF THE COMPONENTS OF THAT PROGRAM.

WE HAVE MERGED THEM TOGETHER. IT IS KIND OF COMPREHENSIVE FOR OUR STORMWATER MODELING. THE COMPONENTS OF OUR STORMWATER MODELING PLAY INTO HOW WE LOOK AT THE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY.

LIKE I SAID, WE HAVE ALREADY STARTED INTO THAT.

IT IS A TWO YEAR LONG DELIVERABLE.

THE VULNERABILITYPORTION WAS STARTED AT THE ONSET OF THE PROJECT BACK IN JULY. AND IT WILL RUN FOR 16 MONTHS , GOING THROUGH FEBRUARY 2024. LIKE I SAID, MOST OF THE INPUTS WE ARE COLLECTING AS PART OF THE DATA GO INTO MAKING THOSE DECISIONS ON VULNERABILITY AND HOW WE HAVE ADDRESSED THAT IN THE LONG TERM. THE FINAL DELIVERABLE FOR THE PROJECT IS JUNE 2024 WHEN WE WILL HAVE THE ENTIRE MASTER PLAN. ALL OF THE COMPREHENSIVE

COMPONENTS OF THAT.>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: DOES THIS

[00:20:02]

>> SHED ROAD WE HAVE INITIATED A TASK ORDER WITH JONES EDMUNDS WHICH IS ONE OF OUR CONTINUING CONTRACTORS THAT WE HAVE.

THAT IS BEING ANALYZED SEPARATELY.

IT WILL BE INCORPORATED WITHIN THE MASTER PLAN AS A WHOLE.

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: I'M GOING TO ASK YOU ABOUT THAT

LATER ON BY THE WAY. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: THAT WAS A FOCUS OF MY QUESTIONING. WE ALREADY KNOW WHERE WE HAVE SOME REAL SERIOUS ISSUES. WHERE WILL THAT BE REVEALED TO

MAC THROUGH PUBLIC MEETINGS? >> THAT IS ONE OF THETOPICS IN NOVEMBER.E HAVE IDENTIFIED SOME EARLY OUT PROJECTS , THINGS THAT WE HISTORICALLY KNOW AS A STAFF OF ISSUES THAT ARE THERE. WE WILL GO THROUGH A LIST OF THE THINGS WE ARE LOOKING AT. WE ARE TRYING TO GET THOSE THINGS WE CALL EARLY OUTS. WE ARE TRYING TO GET DELIVERABLES FASTER THAN THE TWO-YEAR ANALYSIS.

SHED ROAD, BECAUSE OF ITS IMPORTANCE AND ARLEY BEING IDENTIFIED, WE HAVE A SEPARATE SCOPE DOING THAT PROCESS.IT WILL BE INCORPORATEDINTO THE MASTER PLAN BUT WE ARE ALREADY LOOKING AT THAT . THE THREE THAT ONE WILL BE DONE

QUICKER THEN? >> THAT IS ACTIVELY BEING TAKEN ON BY JONES EDMUNDS AND HIS IS A SEPARATE SCOPE OF THE LONG-TERM PROGRAM. IT WILL HAVE SOME ANALYSIS TO LOOK AT HOW WE WANT TO PROCEED AND WE WILL HAVE SOMETHING FOR

THE BOARD. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: I AM DYING TO WAITMY QUESTION ABOUT THAT .

SHOULD IWAIT ? >> CHAIR RENNINGER: YOU CAN ASK IT NOW.> COMMISSIONER BURKE: WE HAVE RESIDENTS SAYING THAT WE ARE WASTING A LOT OFTIME AND MONEY CONSTANTLY WORKING ON IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN . I HAVE LET THEM KNOW THAT IS ALL WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW UNTIL WE GET THIS BACK.

WOULD YOU AGREE? >> SHED ROAD IS A UNIQUE SITUATION IN THE COUNTY. IT IS A PRESCRIPTIVE ROAD.

THE COUNTY DOES NOT ACTUALLY OWN THE ROAD.

WE DO NOT HAVE ALL OF THE OWNERSHIP RIGHTS.

THAT KIND OF COMPLICATES WHAT THE COUNTY CAN DO.

WE CAN MAINTAIN IT WHICH IS WHATEVER PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT DOES. EVERY OPPORTUNITY OUT THERE GRADING THE ROAD AND TRYING TO MAINTAIN THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE HAVE. BUT THAT IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT FROM THE SHED ROAD STUDY. WHAT ARE THE MORE GLOBAL IMPACTS TO THE AREA? HOW DO WE ADDRESS THAT? AND WHAT IS A PATH FORWARD FOR THE COMMISSION TO CONSIDER AS TO WHETHER YOU WANT TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE ROAD? THAT IS SOMETHING WE HAVE NOT DONE HISTORICALLY.

WHAT ARE THE PATHS FORWARD TO HELP SERVE THE CONSTITUENTS?

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: THANK YOU.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: I'M GOING TO BRING US BACK TO THE MATTER AT HAND. PTHAT IS THE APPROVAL OF THE CONTRACT. WE WILL FORWARD THAT TO THE

PCONSENT AGENDA. >> COMMISSIONER BURKE: YOU WILL BE GIVING AN UPDATE AGAIN ON PTHE 22ND MEETING ON ALL THAT?

>> YES, MA'AM. THERE IS A DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS STUDY ON

THE BCC MEETING NEXT TUESDAY. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: ITEM NUMBER

[7.  Executive Compensation Attestation for the Grant Agreement with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, FDACS No. 27937 (M. Mosely)]

CONSUMER SERVICES. >> THIS ATTESTATION IS PART OF OUR COMPLIANCE FOR THE GRANT AT THE FAIRGROUNDS.

IT DOES NOT APPLY AS LOCAL GOVERNMENT BUT THERE ASKING ALL GRANTEES TO DISCLOSE WHETHER YOUR BUDGET INCLUDES 50% OR MORE OF FEDERAL FUNDS. OURS DOES NOT.

IF SO, TO DISCLOSE THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION FOR YOUR TOP FIVE PAID EMPLOYEES. AGAIN, NOT REALLY APPLICABLE TO US. IT'S SOMETHING WE NEED TO EXECUTE AND SEND BACK TO FLORIDA DEPARTMENTOF

[8.  FY 22-23 TDC Event Grant Request (K.Morgan)]

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: BUT THE REPORT IS APPLICABLE ?

>> YES. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: I RECOMMEND CONSENT. ITEM NUMBER EIGHT IS TDC EVENT,

CATTLE AT THE COVE.>> GOOD AFTERNOON COMMISSIONERS.

THE TDC IS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDING A GRANT AWARD OF $4000 TO THE CATTLEMEN'S ASSOCIATION FOR THEIR JANUARY 2023 EVENT AT THE CLAYCOUNTY FAIRGROUNDS , CATTLE AT THE

COVE.>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: SOUNDS GREAT TO ME.

>> THAT IS A SPORTS GRANT, A REIMBURSABLE SPORTS GRANT.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: WHAT KIND OF SHOW IS IT?>> IT IS A CATTLE SHOW WHERE THEY WILL COMPETE NOT ONLY BY THE TYPE OF

COW IT IS. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: BREED.

>> BREED, BUT IT IS ALSO FOR SHOWMANSHIP.

SO STUDENTS WILL BECOMPETING . STUDENTS AS WELL AS THE CATTLE ARE COMPETING. SFA, FOR AGE, A VARIETY OF

[00:25:03]

>> COMMISSIONER BURKE: SO THEY HAVE SCHOLARSHIPS?

>> I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP PART BUT THERE ARE AWARD CEREMONIES AFTER EACH LEVEL OF COMPETITION .

GIVING RIBBONS AND TROPHIES AND ALL KINDS OF GOOD STUFF.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: JUST AS AN ASIDE, I SAW A VIDEO OF AN OX.

THEY ARE HUGE ANIMALS. THEY AR TWICE THE SIZE OF A

[COUNTY MANAGER]

RECOMMEND CONSENT. >> THANK YOU.

>> CHAIR RENNINGER: AND WE ARE ONTO CONNICK COMMISSIONER COMMENTS. OR COUNTY MANAGER.

>> COUNTY MANAGER WANNAMAKER: I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT LAST WEEK WAS PRETTY BUSY. IT STARTED OFF WITH ELECTIONS AND FOLLOWED BY THE BCC MEETING AND RIGHT INTO TROPICAL STORM NICOLE. EIGHT HOMES IN OUR COMMUNITY IN THE COUNTY WERE FLOODED. WE ARE WORKING WITH THOSE INDIVIDUALS TO KIND OF MOVE FORWARD.

STAFF IS REALLY TAKING A LOOK ATTHESE REPEAT FLOODED AREAS .

OUR TACKLES ALL IN PLAY WITH RESILIENCY IN THOSE AREAS AND THE DOLLARS IN FEDERAL DOLLARS THAT WE CAN POSSIBLY ATTACH.

AND ALSO STATE DOLLARS FOR THAT.

A LOT OF DAMAGE TO DOCKS AND BULKHEADS.

EVEN TODAY I NOTICED SOME DEBRIS FLOATING IN THE ST.

JOHN'S. JOHN AND HIS TEAM ARE WORKING WITH FEMA ANALYZING THESE PARTICULAR AREAS.

THERE'S A GENTLEMAN ALONG AN ISLAND IS A BEAUTIFUL NEW BOAT AND IT IS CRISSCROSSING HIS DECK.

WE ALSO SEE AT THE ELKS AND THAT.

THERE IS A TASK FORCE AND 18 TO GO THROUGH AND HELP US OUT WITH THAT. YOU CAN IMAGINE THOUGH, ALL OF THE ASSETS DONE AT FORT MYERS AND WE ARE TRYING TO WORK THROUGH THAT. WE ARE VERY, VERY FORTUNATE.

I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE FOR BEING PATIENT.

PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH US. I SEE MILTON IS OUT THERE AND I'M SURE HE IS THE LATEST AND GREATEST FOR YARD WASTE PICKUP.

I BELIEVE THE DAY - - DELAY IN ONE DAY PICKUP.

IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME HERE. WE HAVE SOME TRUCKS TO ATTACK THE HEAVY LIFT THERE. PROBABLY NOT AS MUCH.

WHEN I WENT TO ROSEMARY HILL, I TURNED OUT THERE WAS 300 POUNDS AND I WOULD'VE NEVER GUESSED IT IN THE BACK OF MY TRUCK.

I DID NOT SEE A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE.

BUT MILTON CAN SAY, HAS IT BEEN AS MUCH AS EN THAT YOU'VE SEEN? A BIT LIGHTER BUT I THINK IT HAS BEEN HELPFUL TO THE COMMUNITY. WE WILL GET THROUGH THE YARD WASTE PICKUP FROM TROPICAL STORM NICOLE.

OTHER THAN THAT, A COUPLE OF BOATS SUNK.

IN SOME DAMAGE TO OUR DOCKS. PLEASE BE CAREFUL AROUND OUR DOCKS AND THE BOAT RAMPS. THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAVE,

PENDING ANY QUESTIONS. >> CHAIR RENNINGER: JUST TO AMPLIFY THE NICOLE ISSUE, AS WE EXIT THE 2022 HURRICANE SEASON WE ONLY EXPERIENCE ONE THIRD OF THE EFFECT OF A HURRICANE.

WE EXPERIENCE THE STORM SURGE. WE DIDN'T HAVE THE WIND FOR THINGS THAT ACCOMPANIED A HURRICANE.

WE SHOULD FEEL VERY FORTUNATE IN THE SENSE THAT WE HAD VERY LITTLE DAMAGE.TORM SURGE IS PROBABLY THE WORST ONE.

IT IS UN
