3. Staff recommends motion to approve: Legal Services Authorization 2011-0353-C for a not-to-exceed amount of $50,000 with Rose Sundstrom & Bentley, LLP for legal services related to the Glades Utility Authority (GUA). SUMMARY: On March 15, 2011, the Board of County Commissioners approved an Agreement with Rose Sundstrom & Bentley, LLP for legal services (R2011-0353) related to complex utility projects/agreements. Pursuant to the Agreements, legal services are to be assigned pursuant to task specific Legal Services Authorizations. The GUA is currently facing a financial crisis and has failed to adopt a balanced budget for fiscal year 2012. This failure to adopt a balanced budget will affect the County as a member of the GUA, as the contract service provider to the GUA, and as a guarantor to certain GUA debt. This Legal Services Authorization will be utilized to seek advice and counsel as to the course of action that the County undertakes in relation to the GUA. Countywide (MWJ)
E. COMMUNITY SERVICES
1. Staff recommends
motion to:
A) ratify the
Chair’s signature on a Refunding Grant Application to the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families, for
the period of October 1, 2011, through September 30, 2012, in the amount of
$20,158,068;
B) ratify
the Chair’s signature on a Expansion Funds Grant Application to HHS, for the
period October 1, 2010, through September 30, 2011, in the amount of
$1,354,358; and
C) delegate authority to the County Administrator or his designee to sign the
resulting carryover grant application for the Expansion funds.
Summary: The FY 2011- 2012 Full Day/Full Year Head Start/Early Head
Start Program will provide comprehensive child development services to 2,296 children
and their families in Palm Beach County. This revised application is necessary because
HHS requested that it reflect two (2) fiscal years as opposed to the customary one
(1) fiscal year. Therefore, the application which was previously approved by
the BCC (R2011-1139) was changed accordingly.
In addition, the expansion funds will need to be requested as a
carryover once the current fiscal year ends.
Delegation of signatory authority will allow the Division the
opportunity to apply for those funds expeditiously. The emergency signature process was used because there was insufficient
time to submit the item through the regular agenda process. There are additional funds in the program
budget which include obligations of County ad valorem and overmatch as
indicated below. The County share is included in the proposed FY2012
budget. (Head Start) Countywide

Grant from the DEM. Palm Beach County (County) entered into the Grant, Contract
No. 09HM-37-10-60-01-075, with DEM for this Project because DEM requires the
Grant be executed by an official government entity. The Project was initiated and funded by the
CRA based on the Grant between the County and DEM for the reimbursement of the
funds. Modification One reinstated the
expired Grant and extended the date from November 4, 2008 until July 4,
2010. Modification Two further extended
the expiration date until February 4, 2011 and increased the maximum allowable
payment to $62,400. Modification Three further
extended the expiration date of the Grant until October 4, 2011, and the CRA is
currently working on another extension with DEM. District 2 (MRE) (Engineering)

Board direction:
regarding the Glades Utility Authority (GUA).
Summary: On June 16, 2009,
the Board of County Commissioners approved the Interlocal Agreement
establishing the GUA pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes. The GUA is a regional partnership established
for the purpose of providing water utility services to the residents of Belle
Glade, Pahokee, South Bay and surrounding areas. The utility has faced many challenges,
including a decline in utility revenues due to unemployment, housing unit
vacancies, reduced business activity, and pipe breakages costing in excess of
$1 million annually. The Glades
Correctional Institution closing will have a significant effect on GUA revenues
as they are the largest customer. The
GUA is projected to have a revenue shortfall in excess of $2 million in the
upcoming year. To date, the GUA Board
has not adopted a surcharge to address the revenue shortfall.
As directed by the Board, Staff
did evaluate the ability for the County’s Water Utility Department to provide a
subsidy. It has been determined that the
Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (WUD) cannot legally do so.
As an alternative to a GUA default, Staff has developed a
plan that will allow for WUD to absorb the GUA.
The proposed conditions of the merger plan are as follows:
1. The City Commissions
approve, by December 31, 2011, a Resolution to amend the GUA Interlocal
Agreement to merge the GUA into WUD beginning October 1, 2012.
2. The County will
loan to GUA, from its General Fund reserves, an amount of up to $2 Million,
with increments of payment starting when necessary, after the City Resolutions
are passed. Repayment is proposed by
September 30, 2014;
3. To help pay for
the rehabilitation of the GUA system, the Cities agree that GUA host fees will
be eliminated over the next five (5) years as follows:
|
Year |
Amount |
|
FY 2012 – 2013 |

FY 2013 - 2014 |

3% |
|
FY 2015 - 2016 |
1% |
|
FY 2016 – Future |
No
host fees |
4.
The Cities agree that the current GUA rate structure will continue
subject to annual index increases.
Provided Conditions 3 and 4
identified above are met, the fiscal impact to WUD is tolerable.
Should the Board of County
Commissioners not approve a merger plan, Staff does not recommend further
intervention by the County. (Admin) District

3. Staff recommends
motion to receive and file: Staff responses to the Inspector General
reports received as follows:
A) 2010-0008 - Office of
Small Business – Road Construction Hauling and Preference for SBE; and
B) 2010-0010 - Office of
Small Business – Line Tec, Inc.
SUMMARY: In
September 2010, County Administration and the County Attorney’s Office brought
forward to the Inspector General a concern regarding the possible use of an SBE
trucking sub-contractor performing as a conduit for prime contractors on road
construction projects. Because of their
investigation, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) released two (2) reports
relating to the Office of Small Business during FY- 2011. The scope of the first report was limited to
road construction hauling and preference given to Prime contractors because of
the partnership with the SBE. The report identified recommendations that
included but was not limited to modifying the SBE Ordinance, SBE Policies and
Procedures (PPM), certification process and excluding road construction hauling
from being eligible for SBE certification.
Staff concurred with and implemented a number of recommendations within
the first report as reflected in staff full response in Attachment A of the
Agenda Item. However, staff disagreed with some of the conclusions and
recommendations made by the OIG such as the Ordinance/PPMs lacks clarity and
leads to confusion; SBE program is subjectively administered resulting in
questionable certifications/re-certifications and de-certifications. The OIG
report states that confusion exist as to whether the 15% SBE participation in
the bid process is mandatory or a goal. Furthermore, staff disagreed with
eliminating trucking as an area eligible for small business certification as
recommended by the OIG based on the facts that county road projects range from
small to very large projects and a small trucking firm would possess the
ability to fulfill a commercial useful function on small jobs. In addition, the small trucking firm has the
ability to joint venture with other small trucking businesses in an effort to
increase capacity and compete for larger jobs as well. However, it was necessary to implement
additional measures to require the Prime and the SBE to attest to their
representations made during the bid and payment processes. The second report,
OIG-2010-0010, was regarding Line-Tec, Inc. submitting misleading documents
and/or falsifying documents to obtain certification. When the OIG provided new evidence to OSBA
regarding altered documents Line-Tec, Inc. had submitted as part of their
latest request for re-certification
as an SBE of supplies. OSBA conducted an
independent investigation and took the appropriate actions by decertifying
Line-Tec Inc. for supplies. As a result
of this action, the company was suspended from doing business with the County
for two (2) years. However, staff maintains that Line-Tec, Inc. met the
eligibility criteria when originally certified and all related complaints
investigated. The OIG made a brief
reference to the January 15, 2009 court decision denying Corcel Corp petition,
citing that the courts did not have authority to substitute its judgment for
that of OSBA. While this is correct, the
Judge’s ruling was substantive in its reasoning. The Court listened to all the
arguments and reviewed all exhibits introduced into evidence by Corcel Corp.
and OSBA and opined that OSBA staff had conducted a thorough job of
investigating this matter and it was not a perfunctory effort. The Court further stated OSBA fulfilled their
obligation by conducting a well documented investigation in which all elements
were met and carefully considered. The
Court noted that the behavior of OSBA was exemplary and in total conformance
with the code and under the law. The
Court concluded that the explanations given by OSBA representatives were
extremely plausible and totally in line with the clear language of the relevant
ordinances, and in this light, there was absolutely no basis on which the Court
could substitute its judgment for that of the agency. A full response to this report is included in
Attachment 2 of the Agenda Item. Staff will continue to review and modify the
Ordinance and PPMs to maintain the integrity of the program. It is our goal to
ensure Palm Beach County’s small businesses fully participate in County
procurement. Countywide (TKF)

Board direction on:
A)
adopting a Resolution to approve
Amendment Number Eight to the County Incentive Grant Program Agreement
R2001-2157 (Agreement) with the State of Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) to provide for a reallocation of up to $1,000,000 of the existing
matching roadway construction funding for median beautification on Okeechobee
Boulevard from State Road 7 to Florida’s Turnpike (Improvements) and a
Maintenance Memorandum of Agreement (MMOA) to ensure the maintenance of the
Improvements;
B)
approving an exception to the 2002
policy that restricts Palm Beach County’s (County) installation of median
beautification to areas that are unincorporated and not contiguous to a
municipality;
C)
approving an Interlocal Agreement
with the City of West Palm Beach (City) under which the City agrees to accept
all maintenance obligations for the Improvements; and
D)
authorizing the County Engineer or
his designee to issue a Task Authorization not-to-exceed $1,000,000 to
construct the Improvements utilizing the Annual Roadway Landscaping Contract.
SUMMARY: If the funding is not approved, the FDOT
will be responsible for mowing the medians and swales along this 3+ mile
stretch of road. They currently mow approximately seven (7) times per year. Adoption
of the Resolution to approve Amendment Number Eight and approve the MMOA will
establish a reallocation of up to $1,000,000 of budgeted but unused roadway
construction funding for the Improvements and will obligate the County to
maintain the Improvements. The County will then pass the maintenance
obligations to the City. Approval of the Interlocal Agreement will obligate the
City to accept all maintenance responsibilities for the Improvements. In
accordance with the terms of the original Agreement, 50/50 (County/FDOT)
matching funding would be utilized to install the Improvements. The County’s

motion to approve a preliminary reading and to advertise for Public Hearing on
October 18, 2011, at 9:30 a.m.: an Ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County,
Florida, amending Chapter 27, Article IV, “Sewers and Sewage Disposal” of the
Palm Beach County Code; providing for repeal of laws in conflict; providing for
severability; providing for inclusion in the Code of Laws and Ordinances; and
providing for an effective date. Summary: The
Florida Department of Environmental Protection conducted a Pretreatment Program
Audit of the Water Utilities Department’s Pretreatment Program. Part of the
audit was the review of the Wastewater Facilities Use Ordinance (Ordinance),
codified at Chapter 27, Article IV of the Palm Beach County Code, for legal
sufficiency. This Ordinance gives the
Water Utilities Department the authority to administer the Pretreatment
Program. The Program’s objectives are to prevent the introduction of pollutants
to the wastewater collection system that if inadequately treated, can endanger
the wastewater treatment process, plant operators, transmission workers, and
the public with harmful pollutants. In
addition, the Program improves the opportunity for the utilities to improve the
quality of reclaimed water, domestic wastewater sludge, and promote the
preservation and enhancement of the regional ecosystem. The changes to the Ordinance include updating
references to provisions of the Florida Administrative Code, modifying
definitions, relocating the numeric local discharge and surcharge standards to
the Water Utilities Department’s Uniform Policies and Procedures Manual,
revising requirements of the pretreatment application, modifying industrial
wastewater discharge permit conditions, updating self-monitoring requirements,
altering the certification statement, amending notification requirements of
accidental discharge upset or bypass, modifying notification of discharge of
hazardous wastes, and revising penalties for failure to comply with provisions
in the Ordinance. Countywide

Board direction: regarding a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the South Florida Water
Management District (District), Palm Beach County, Lake Worth Drainage District
(LWDD), and the City of Fort Lauderdale regarding multiple use C-51 Water
Supply & Water Quality Reservoir Planning and Development. Summary: This non-binding MOU provides for the
cooperative planning of a regional reservoir in the C-51 Basin as well as
related pumping and conveyance improvements.
The proposed reservoir provides both environmental and water supply
benefits. Environmental benefits are realized by helping to stabilize flows to
the Stormwater Treatment Areas that feed Water Conservation Area 1, and by
reducing excessive and damaging stormwater flows to the Lake Worth Lagoon.
Water supply benefits are realized through the recharge of surficial aquifer
wellfields. The current concept
of using the LWDD to convey this water south assures that Palm Beach County’s wellfields
get recharged first, regardless of other participants.
District
responsibilities under this MOU require the District to identify the
sustainable surface water yield from the C-51Basin, perform hydrologic
modeling, determine the water needed for environmental restoration and the
quantity of water available for regional water supplies. The municipal utilities responsibilities
include determining the potential users and projected long term water demands. This information, in addition to feasibility
studies already completed by the municipal utilities, will be used to determine
the initial project feasibility.
The MOU contains a
joinder provision for other parties to sign on as the project becomes better
defined. Any financial contributions to
subsequent studies will be subject to approval by the Palm Beach County Board
of County Commissioners. The term of the MOU is until March 30, 2012, or
until execution of a separate agreement, whichever occurs first. There is no
cost to the MOU, except for staff participation included in current approved

Board direction:
regarding a request by the City of Boynton Beach to modify a deed restriction
on a portion of 17.5 acres donated by the County to the City. SUMMARY: In 1987, at the City’s request, the
County conveyed 17.5 acres within the Quantum Park planned development at no
cost to the City, subject to a deed restriction limiting the use thereof to
park and public purposes. The City has
not developed the park and does not expect to have funding to develop the park
within the next ten (10) years. The City is proposing to lease approximately two
(2) acres of the park property to EWE Warehouse Investments XI, Ltd. for 20
years for construction of 200 parking spaces to serve EWE’s adjoining
warehouse/office building. EWE is in the
process of finalizing a lease with a call center operator to relocate from
outside the County to EWE’s building, and the tenant requires additional
parking. The City is proposing that EWE
not be charged rent for this use, but they will be required to construct an
additional 30 parking spaces to serve the park at such time, if ever, as the
City constructs park improvements. The
City believes that this is adequate consideration. Staff has concerns regarding the proposed
length of term not being consistent with an “interim use” and has suggested that some level of rent be
charged. Board direction is required as
to whether the Board desires to modify the deed restriction to permit this use
and the terms and conditions, if any, to be placed on that modification. (PREM) District 3 (HJF)
