ATTORNEY (Cont’d)
4. Staff recommends
motion to approve: Settlement
Agreement in Deininger et. al. v. Palm Beach County for $600,000,
inclusive of attorney’s fees. SUMMARY: In April, 2004, the Fourth District Court of
Appeal issued its decision in Dascott v. Palm Beach County, holding that
the County’s pre-termination hearings were required to be held in accordance
with the notice and public attendance requirements of the Sunshine Law, F.S.
§286.011. Prior to May 2004, the County held at least a portion of its
pre-termination and grievance hearings in private and did not publicly notice
the hearings. Plaintiffs Marie Deininger
and Arthur Hackney are former County employees who were disciplined and
terminated under the pre-May 2004 grievance and termination process. On
September 1, 2004, Deininger and Hackney filed a class action lawsuit on behalf
of themselves and all other similarly situated former County employees who had
either been terminated or disciplined under the pre-Dascott process. The
class action suit alleged one count of Sunshine Law violations and one count
for the recovery of unpaid wages. Two classes were certified in the case – one
for those who had been terminated and one for those who had been disciplined
under the pre-May 2004 procedures. The
parties attended court-ordered mediation on April 19, 2012, and have negotiated
a proposed settlement, settling all claims, including attorney’s fees, for a lump
sum payment of six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000), which will be
distributed to the class membership by an equitable distribution methodology
that the parties will develop and present to the Court for approval, along with
all other settlement terms. Three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) of
the proposed six hundred thousand dollar ($600,000) settlement will be
reimbursed by the County’s excess carrier, United National. Countywide

approximately 57.41 acres property lying north of Wallis Road, south of the L-4
Canal, and between Military Trail and Haverhill Road. DOA is seeking to convert the property from
residential to commercial or industrial uses, and has requested a plat waiver
from the County’s Engineering Department (Engineering). As a condition of approval, Engineering
requires the dedication of right-of-way adjacent on the north side of Wallis
Road, resulting in an ultimate right-of-way of 40 feet. The Release releases the Wallis Road Property
from the terms, conditions and obligations of FAA grant assurances. The Bond Resolution is required in order that
the property may be used for non-airport purposes. The Right-of-Way Resolution
establishes certain easements, covenants and restrictions on the Wallis Road
Property (the Declaration), and designating the Wallis Road Property for use by
the general public for public street purposes, subject to the Declaration. Countywide

approximately 23.3’ in length, containing 276.6 square feet (0.006 acres). This non-exclusive easement is being granted
at no charge as relocation was required for installation of the traffic
signal. The Declaration of Easement
encumbers two (2) easement areas: i) north of the entrance road, which contains

Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) substation in the Sierra Square Plaza on
Indiantown Road in western Jupiter at an annual rate of $25,004.55. SUMMARY: Since May 22, 2007, the County has leased
1,247 SF of storefront office space at the Sierra Square Plaza on Indiantown
Road in western Jupiter for a PBSO substation serving North County/Jupiter
Farms. PBSO feels strongly that this
substation is essential to its operations in the North County/Jupiter Farms
area. No County owned space is available
to accommodate this program and the rent is comparable to other available
commercial space in this area. The Lease
expires on May 21, 2012, and this Second Amendment extends the term by four (4)
years to May 21, 2016, decreases the base rent adjustment and increases the CAM
adjustment portions of the total rent.
The effect of these adjustments is that the annual total rent will stay
at the current rate for the first year of the term extension, and increase
approximately three percent (3%) annually thereafter. The increases in future years are due

Park marina project. The Grant Agreement
has been amended twice to extend the project completion date. The County received several grants for the
DuBois Park marina project and in order to avoid confusion on overlapping grant
project elements, the scope of work for the FFWCC grant was reduced and the
percentage of reimbursement increased.
FFWCC’s maximum contribution of $500,000 has not changed. Although the Dubois Park marina project was
completed using multiple funding sources, the overall project elements and cost
remained the same. This Amendment is for
administrative/clerical purposes only and to simplify the reimbursement process. District 1 (AH)

(Pride), to extend the Contract for a maximum six-month term, from June 6, 2012, to December 5, 2012. SUMMARY: The Second Amendment extending the Misdemeanor Probation Services contract for another six (6) months is required because the Request for Proposal (RFP) process is ongoing. The purpose of the extension is to provide time for this process to be completed without a disruption of services. Following the review of bids by the selection committee and the posting (PBC RFS No. 800108/LJ) of the award by the Purchasing Department, a formal protest was filed by the current service provider, Pride Integrated Services, Inc. As such, a formal protest hearing will be scheduled to take place before a Special Master in the near future. If the Special Master upholds the recommended bid award, staff will still require additional time to finalize the contract for the Board of County Commissioners’ approval and also transition all the clients’ records to the new company. The term of the Contract is amended to provide that the Contract shall continue for an additional six (6) months (December 5, 2012). By agreeing to this extension, Pride does not waive any of its claims in its protest of the selection process in RFS No. 800108/LJ. Countywide (PGE)

and ordinances; providing for captions; and providing an effective date. SUMMARY: On April 17, 2012, the Board of County
Commissioners (BCC) approved the first reading amending the Vehicle for Hire
Ordinance. The amendments included extending the current VFH moratorium, which
expires on May 25, 2012, to June 1, 2013. The BCC directed staff to make two
minor changes in the proposed amendments which have been incorporated in the
final ordinance amendments. The moratorium, which is being extended,
prohibits the establishment of any new companies from operating in Palm Beach
County through June 1, 2013. The other ordinance amendments include the
following: 1) provide a comprehensive definition of a vehicle for hire company;
2) provide for additional exemptions for the operation of vehicles, companies
and organizations engaged in transporting persons not subject to the Ordinance,
i.e. not for profit 501(c)(3) organizations, hotel, and motel shuttle services;
3) provide clarification concerning the requirement to submit a new business
application to the Division upon the sale, transfer and change of ownership of
a vehicle for hire business; 5) establish additional enforcement, revocation
and impoundment actions for failure to maintain commercial liability insurance;
6) provide clarification of color/signage schemes and distinct trade names for
all taxis and non-medical wheelchair/stretcher transportation service
companies; 7) establish bi-annual inspections for all vehicles over seven (7)
years old or which have exceeded 500,000 miles; 8) modify the vehicle for hire driver
I.D. badge requirements to be consistent with other Division ordinances
regulating driver I.D. badges, and the Florida Highway and Safety Motor Vehicle
rules and regulations; 9) provide a sunset date for existing vehicle for hire
companies to meet new color, signage and trade name requirements. There are
several other minor deletions, additions and clarification, including the
correction of scrivener errors. Enforcement of this Ordinance is funded
entirely through license fees. Staff will continue to work with the VFH
industry in developing procedures and guidelines for the implementation of a
lottery or medallion program which will permit new companies to operate within
Palm Beach County. Staff will report
back to the Board within three (3) to six (6) months regarding additional
changes in the VFH Ordinance. These changes will standardize the requirements
for all VFH companies serving the County and the Palm Beach International
Airport. Countywide (PGE)

A. ADMINISTRATION
1. Staff recommends
motion to adopt: Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of
Palm Beach County, Florida, authorizing the use of Pollution Recovery Trust
Fund monies for climate change action planning and environmental sustainability
coordination activities. Summary: This Resolution will authorize disbursements
from the Pollution Recovery Trust Fund for a two-year period to fund a
professional staff position for climate change action planning and
environmental sustainability coordination.
Miscellaneous expenses associated with the position, including travel
expenses, as approved by the County Administrator, are also authorized by this
Resolution. The position level and work location would be determined by the
County Administrator. There are
sufficient unobligated funds in the Trust Fund to accommodate this purpose. Countywide
(PE)
A) recommends motion to receive and file the efficiency study presented by Gerstle, Rosen & Goldenberg, P.A., Certified Public Accountants (GRG); and
B) requests Board direction on the recommendation to outsource 696 County
jobs, mostly field operations, to potentially save $12,000,000 annually.
SUMMARY: GRG was retained
to conduct a study of the countywide ad valorem-equivalent departments.
Objectives included to identify: possible efficiencies and cost reductions,
potential areas of consolidation, new and additional revenue sources,
efficiency/effectiveness measures to be utilized in rating departmental
performance. The study concludes that
$29.4 million could be saved through a variety of means including the
elimination of 921 positions, with much savings from reducing/eliminating
compensation/benefits for outsourced employees.
The remaining savings from operating efficiencies and staff reductions
are currently being reviewed by staff on a case-by-case basis for future budget
consideration. Constitutional Officer administrative cost review will be
separately addressed. Countywide
(PFK)
3. Staff requests
Board direction: regarding the findings in the Gerstle, Rosen &
Goldenberg, P.A., Certified Public Accountants (GRG) report regarding duplicate
operating functions and related costs of certain Constitutional Officers, to
potentially save $5,786,939 annually. SUMMARY: GRG was retained to conduct a study of the
countywide ad valorem-equivalent departments. Objectives included
identification of possible efficiencies and cost reductions, potential areas of
consolidation, new and additional revenue sources, and efficiency/effectiveness
measures to be utilized in rating departmental performance. As part of the overall project, GRG conducted
a review of the Constitutional Offices (except the Sheriff’s office)
administrative costs, primarily related to central services, and identified
$5,786,939 as duplicate operating functions of the Board of County
Commissioners. The Constitutional
Officers of Palm Beach County are all independent entities and cannot be
compelled to use the central services of the BCC. Each of them have different systems,
policies, and processes, and are separate employers. For these reasons, it would not be practical
to assume that many of the 74 positions identified in the report as redundant
could be eliminated or have the corresponding workload absorbed by the existing
County workforce. Staff believes that
the findings in the report are not supportable and that the anticipated savings
would not be achievable. Consideration
should be given to discuss with the Constitutional Officers the feasibility of
participating with the County for central services to determine if any
organizational efficiencies and cost savings could be realized. Countywide

motion to approve: removal of the listed members from their respective
boards/committees for non-compliance with the revised Palm Beach County Code of
Ethics Ordinance training requirements. SUMMARY: In
December 2009, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) adopted the Palm Beach
County Code of Ethics (Code) to help ensure that public officials and employees
abide by the highest ethical standards. On May 17, 2012, the BCC adopted
revisions to the Code. Under the revised Code, any individual appointed by the
BCC is considered an “official” and is required to comply with the Code. In
August 2011, notices were sent to committee members with instructions on
accessing the on-line training program; and reminder notices were sent in
mid-November. In addition, in February 2012, County Administration contacted
department/division committee liaisons requesting the need to follow up with
their respective committee members. One final notice was sent on April 16,
2012, with an established deadline of April 30, 2012 for compliance. The
attached list represents those committee members who have still not satisfied
the revised ethics training requirements, and are being recommended for removal.

Staff recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida approving the issuance of revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 (the “Bonds”) by the Palm Beach County Educational Facilities Authority (the “Authority”). SUMMARY: If issued, the proceeds of the Bonds will be loaned by the Authority to Lynn University, Inc. (the "University"). The University will use the proceeds to pay costs of issuance and to acquire assets (the "Assets") consisting of a new central chilled water plant, replacements of deteriorating infrastructure associated with the chilled water system, existing building retrofits for energy efficiency, improvements to electrical infrastructure on campus and metering of existing buildings to trend performance the University's educational facilities located at 3601 North Military Trail, Boca Raton, Florida. All Assets will be owned and operated by the University. Approval by an elected body is required by the Internal Revenue Code; however, adoption of this resolution does not in any way obligate the County. Neither the taxing power nor the faith and credit of the County, nor any County funds, shall be pledged to pay principal or redemption premiums, if any, or interest on the Bonds. District 4 (PFK)
