the receipt of a Charge Resolution Contract with the EEOC. On November 26, 1996, the Board of County
Commissioners approved staff’s recommendation that future Worksharing

complaints; and
B) downward budget amendment of
$3,940 in the General Fund to adjust the budget to the actual contract.

FY 2017-2018 and is in the amount of $76,060 ($71,400 for charge processing;

C) budget transfer of $1,258,377 in the PFC fund to transfer PFC

SUMMARY: The Contract with ARINC Incorporated for the

3. Staff recommends
motion to approve: Second Amendment (Amendment) to Amended and Restated
Fixed Base Operator Lease Agreement (R2016-0759) with Galaxy Aviation of
Lantana, Inc. d/b/a Stellar Aviation of South Palm Beach (Stellar), providing
for a rental credit of $2,600 per week for the temporary relocation of aircraft
to accommodate taxilane improvements at the Palm
Beach County Park Airport (Lantana Airport). SUMMARY: West Construction, Inc. is currently constructing various
airside and landside improvements at the Lantana Airport pursuant to a Contract
(R2017-0759) entered into with the County on July 11, 2017, which includes
reconstruction of aircraft apron and taxilanes; the
construction of vehicle access roads; and parking, lighting, drainage, utility
and security improvements. In order to expedite the reconstruction of a taxilane located in front of hangar row 500, the aircraft
stored in the hangars will need to be temporarily relocated since they will not
be able to be removed from the hangars during construction. Stellar has agreed
to temporarily relocate the aircraft located in individual aircraft hangars in
hangar row 500 to shared community hangars. Aircraft located within the
community hangars will be temporarily displaced to accommodate aircraft
previously stored in hangar row 500, which will result in a loss of rental
revenues to Stellar. Aircraft located
in community hangars may only be removed by authorized staff for liability
reasons; therefore, Stellar will be responsible for towing aircraft in and out
of the community hangars, which will require additional staff to assist with
aircraft movements. Stellar has estimated the revenue and staffing costs associated
with the relocations to be approximately $2,600 per week. This Amendment would
provide Stellar with a rental credit of $2,600 per week until the taxilane reconstruction project is complete. The Department currently anticipates this
phase of the project to be completed within approximately five weeks. Approval
of this Amendment will allow the contractor to expedite the reconstruction of
the taxilane and minimize the impacts on hangar
subtenants. Countywide (HJF)

for $2,065,542.89 and exercising the first one year renewal option, bringing

(Sheriff) for the provision of food and laundry services to the County’s
Homeless Resource Center a/k/a the Senator Philip D. Lewis Center (Lewis
Center) located at 1000 45th Street in the City of West Palm Beach,
Florida. SUMMARY: Since July 2, 2012 when the Lewis Center
opened, the County has been meeting its obligation to Lewis Center’s Lead
Operator (Goodwill) to: (i) produce meals meeting established dietary
guidelines for adults and juveniles; and (ii) provide laundry service for
bedding and towels, via Agreements with the Sheriff (R2012-0885 and R2015-0483).
Staff is recommending that the County continue to meet its obligations to
Goodwill for food and laundry services through an Agreement with the Sheriff to
use his facilities at the Main Detention Center (MDC) for a five year
period. The Sheriff’s contracted food
service provider (Food Service Provider) will produce the meals on-demand for
the Lewis Center. This Agreement
requires that: (i) the Sheriff provide the County with meals and linens for use
at the Lewis Center; (ii) the County order and pick-up meals and linens from
the MDC; (iii) the County reimburse the Sheriff for out of pocket expenses
associated with production of meals actually ordered; and (iv) the County
reimburse the Sheriff for out of pocket costs for lost trays and/or
linens. The Agreement permits both the
County and the Sheriff, upon mutual agreement, to delegate each of their
administrative and logistical responsibilities to the Director of Facilities
Development & Operations and the Major, Corrections Operations,
respectively. Certain administrative responsibilities such as the ordering,
meal preparation, serving of meals and transport duties can be further assigned
to Goodwill and the Sheriff’s Food Service Provider. The term of the Agreement commences on June
19, 2018 and continues for five years, with an expiration date of June 18,
2023, or until the expiration of the Food Service Provider’s contract,
whichever occurs first. The Agreement
may be terminated by either party, with or without cause with a minimum of 30
days’ notice. Due to this being an on-demand contract with no minimum purchase
requirement, the County is free to order as many or few meals as they desire,
allowing the County to utilize alternate food production sources/approaches as
determined to be appropriate on a case by case or longer term basis. (FDO

26-110; authorizing the Board to levy and collect a special assessment to fund
fire hydrant maintenance and rental fees charged to the County by the City of
Riviera Beach or its Utility Special District in a certain area within the
County’s Fire-Rescue jurisdiction and the City’s Water Utility Services area;
providing procedures and notice requirements to levy and collect the special
assessment, including adoption of the rate resolution, adoption and
certification of the assessment roll,

motion to:
A) adopt resolution authorizing the conveyance of the County’s interest in 0.13
acres of surplus property to Larance Ford for $861.43
without reservation of phosphate, mineral, metals, and petroleum rights; and
B) approve County Deed in favor of Larance
Ford.
SUMMARY: On March 14, 2016, the County
acquired by Escheatment Tax Deed a 0.13 acre vacant parcel of land located at Bacom Point Road in Pahokee. In December 2014, Ford
purchased two parcels – the surplus parcel and a 0.69 acre adjoining parcel
containing a 2,529 sf single family residence, located at 785 Bacom Point Road, Pahokee.
Palm Beach County property tax records did not reflect Ford as the new
owner of the surplus parcel and the Property Appraiser Office, the Tax
Collector and Clerk’s Office failed to provide Ford notice of the taxes due and
the tax sale pursuant to Florida Statute Chapter 197. As a result, the surplus parcel was
foreclosed upon and ultimately escheated to the County. Staff is recommending the County re-convey
the surplus parcel to Ford, the owner of record at the time of issuance of the
tax deed, without competitive bidding under the alternative disposition
procedures established by Ordinance 2002-067.
This requires a finding by the Board that Ford is the only person capable
of reasonably utilizing the property.
Staff recommends this finding to correct the procedural errors and to
ensure that Ford retains access to the property immediately behind his home
(his backyard). Mr. Ford will pay
$861.43, equal to the taxes for the years 2015, 2016 and 2017. This conveyance
must be approved by a Supermajority Vote (5 Commissioners). (PREM) District 6 (HJF)

B) approve
Fifth
Amendment to Lease Agreement with Bedner Farm, Inc. (R2001-0582) of 262 acres
in the Ag Reserve.
SUMMARY: On April 17, 2001, the Board
approved a contract with Bedner Farm, Inc. to acquire approximately 262 acres
in the Ag Reserve (R2001-0582).
Simultaneous with the closing, the County leased the property back to Bedner
Farm for a term of ten years at an initial rental rate of $550/acre/year. The
First Amendment approved on May 15, 2007 (R2007-0827) extended the term for 12
years to 2023. The Third Amendment approved on February 4, 2014 (R2014-0190)
extended the term for ten years until 2033. The Fourth Amendment approved on
July 21, 2015 extended the term for ten years until 2043. Bedner Farm is operated by the Bedner family
which wants to ensure that the younger members of the family will have the
ability to continue farming. The Bedners are concerned about incremental changes to the land
use and zoning regulations for the Ag Reserve, and the potential impact of such
changes on the Bedners’ ability to continue farming
and have requested the County extend their Lease. Extending the Lease will provide the Bedners the legal right to farm as long as it remains
economically viable to do so. This Fifth Amendment to Lease Agreement provides
Bedner Farm, Inc. ten additional options to extend the term of the Lease, each
for a period of one year. The extension
options shall be automatically exercised each year unless Bedner provides 60
days prior notice that it does not wish to exercise the then current
option. If all options are exercised,
the term would extend to 2053. Rent is
currently $500/acre/year and will be periodically adjusted to fair market value
as determined by appraisal. The Resolution finds that the extension of the
Bedner Lease is in the best interests of the County based upon the following
facts: 1) a major element of the Ag Reserve Acquisition Program was to ensure
continued agricultural operations in the Ag Reserve; 2) continuity of farming
operations assists in preserving agricultural operations in the Ag Reserve; 3) the
extension of the Bedner Lease will maintain continuity of existing farming
operations; and 4) the County will receive fair market value rent as determined
by appraisal during the extensions. (PREM) District 5 (HJF)

best interest of the County; and
B) approve First Amendment to Lease Agreement
(R2011-1108) of 195 farmable acres in the Ag Reserve.
SUMMARY: On July 19, 2011, the Board
approved a Lease Agreement with T&D to lease the Amestoy
farm property for a term of five years with successive one year extension
periods through June 30, 2031, at an initial rate of $500/gross acre. Rent is currently $500/acre/year. T&D is
operated by the Bowman family. T&D
is concerned about incremental changes to the land use and zoning regulations
for the Ag Reserve, and the potential impact of such changes on T&D’s
ability to continue farming and have requested the County extend their Lease in
line with the proposed extension of the Bedner’s
lease. Extending the Lease will provide
T&D the legal right to farm as long as it remains economically viable to do
so. This First Amendment to the Lease Agreement provides T&D 22 additional
one year options, extending the term through June 30, 2053. The extension options will be automatically
exercised each year unless T&D provides 90 days prior notice that it does
not wish to exercise the then current option. Rent be periodically adjusted to
fair market value as determined by appraisal.
The Resolution finds that the extension of the T&D Lease is in the
best interests of the County based upon the following facts: 1) a major element
of the Ag Reserve Acquisition Program was to ensure continued agricultural
operations in the Ag Reserve; 2) continuity of farming operations assists in
preserving agricultural operations in the Ag Reserve; 3) the extension of the
T&D Lease will maintain continuity of existing farming operations; and 4)

SUMMARY: The County acquired the 938-acre Bowman property in 2001 for $38,461,000
($41,000/acre) as part of the Ag Reserve program for preservation of
farmland. Simultaneous with the closing,
the County leased the property back to Bowman Growers pursuant to three
different Leases with terms extending through June 30, 2023 at an initial
rental rate of $551/acre/year. Rent is currently $500/acre/year. The First
Amendments approved on February 27, 2007 (R2007-0347) extended the term for all
three Leases to June 30, 2025. The Second Amendments approved on January 12,
2010 (R2010-0085-86) reduced the rents for all three parcels to $500/gross
acre. The Third Amendments approved November 16, 2010 (R2010-1185-1186) reduced
the premises to allow for the Lyons Road Expansion. The Bowmans
are concerned about incremental changes to the land use and zoning regulations
for the Ag Reserve, and the potential impact of such changes on the Bowmans’ ability to continue farming and have requested the
County extend their Leases in line with the proposed extension of the Bedner’s lease. Extending the Lease will provide the Bowmans the legal right to farm as long as it remains
economically viable to do so. This Third Amendment to Parcel A
and the Fourth Amendments to Parcels B & C to the Lease Agreements provides
Bowman Growers 28 additional one year options extending the term through June
30, 2053 for all three Leases. The extension options will be automatically
exercised each year unless Bowman provides 60 days prior notice that it does
not wish to exercise the then current option. Rent is currently $500/acre/year
and will be periodically adjusted to fair market value as determined by

upon the following facts: 1) a major element of the Ag Reserve Acquisition
Program was to ensure continued agricultural operations in the Ag Reserve; 2)
continuity of farming operations assists in preserving agricultural operations
in the Ag Reserve; 3) the extension of the Bowman Leases will maintain

motion to approve: Amendment
No. 1 to the Agreement for Purchase and Sale with Transit Village, LLC.
(R2012-1158). SUMMARY: The February 27th workshop on the
Downtown West Palm Beach County Facilities Master Plan update addressed the
City’s proposed extension of Fern Street across the railroad tracks to
Clearwater Drive and the anticipated negative impacts upon Palm Tran operations
at the Intermodal Center. As such, Staff recommended that the Board postpone
consideration of Transit Village’s (TV) extension request until the City and
County reach an agreement on the Fern Street crossing. Staff requested a workshop between the Board
and the City Council, but the Mayor declined.
Instead, Staff will make a presentation to the City Council on June 25th;
however, it appears unlikely that the County and City will reach an agreement
on the crossing at any time soon, if at all. Staff will continue to raise
objections to the extension/crossing with SFRTA and FDOT unless and until the
City obtains a traffic report demonstrating that the crossing will not impact
Palm Tran operations. The Agreement with
TV requires TV close by August 13, 2018, and TV has advised it is unable to
meet that deadline. This Amendment No. 1
provides TV with a two year extension to August 2020. Staff also recommended that as consideration
for the extension, TV convey a .4 acre outparcel at the corner of Tamarind and Datura at no cost to the County, and that TV agree to
extend the time frames for Staff review of TV’s submittals during the review
process. TV will not agree to convey the
outparcel, but instead has agreed to construct four additional Workforce
Housing units for a total of 42 units and has further agreed to subject all 42
units to the rules, regulations and requirements of the County’s Workforce

motion to:
A)
adopt resolution authorizing the conveyance of the County’s interest in a
vacant 0.14 acre parcel of County-owned land located on Edham
Drive, West Palm Beach, to Tiger Real Estate Development, LLC for $5,000 with
reservation of mineral and petroleum rights, but without rights of entry and
exploration pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 270.11;
B)
approve Deposit Receipt and Contract for Sale and Purchase with Tiger Real Estate
Development, LLC for the sale of 0.06 acres of vacant County surplus property;
and
C)
approve County Deed in favor of Tiger Real Estate
Development, LLC.
SUMMARY: The County acquired a 0.14 acre parcel of
land located on Edham Drive, north of Wallis and west
of Haverhill Roads, in unincorporated Palm Beach County, by Tax Deed in
September 1996. This property is unbuildable, serves no present or future
County purpose and has remained on the surplus property list since it was
acquired. The parcel is t-shaped in
nature, cannot be developed as a standalone parcel and is of use only to the
adjoining owners. In December 2017, PREM
was contacted by an adjacent owner expressing an interest in the parcel. The
2017 Property Appraiser assessed value of the parcel is $42. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section
125.35(2), the Board may effect a private sale of the parcel upon a finding
that the value of a parcel is $15,000 or less, and when due to its size, shape,
location, and value, it is of use only to one or more adjacent property owners.
In accordance with Florida Statutes, Section 125.35(2), notice of the County’s
intent to sell this parcel was sent to all adjacent property owners. Two
adjoining owners responded that they were interested in the surplus
parcel. One bid was received from Tiger
Real Estate Development, LLC with a proposed purchase price of $5,000. Tiger
Real Estate Development, LLC will pay documentary stamps and recording costs,
and accept the property in “AS IS” condition.
The County is reserving, for the benefit of the abutting properties and
their current owners, a utility easement and an access easement across the
property for ingress and egress purposes.
The County will retain mineral rights in accordance with Florida
Statutes, Section 270.11, but will not retain rights of entry and
exploration. Closing will occur within
30 days of Board approval. This conveyance must be approved by a
Supermajority Vote (5 Commissioners). (PREM) District 2 (HJF)
7. Staff recommends
motion to:
A)
adopt resolution authorizing the conveyance of the County’s interest in a 0.21
acre parcel of surplus property improved with a 1,232 SF manufactured home to
the City of Belle Glade without charge pursuant to Florida Statutes Section
197.592(3), with reservation of mineral and petroleum rights, but without
rights of entry and exploration; and
B)
approve County Deed in favor of the City of Belle Glade.
SUMMARY: In July 2017, the County acquired a 0.21 acre
parcel of surplus property improved with a 1,232 SF manufactured home located
within the municipal boundaries of the City of Belle Glade by Tax Deed. The parcel serves no present or future County
purpose. A recent appraisal valued the
property at $35,000. The parcel is being conveyed to the City pursuant to
Florida Statutes Section 197.592(3), which requires the conveyance of surplus
properties acquired by tax deed to the municipality in which it is located.
This conveyance will relieve the County of potential liability for occurrences
on the property. The County will retain
mineral and petroleum rights in accordance with Florida Statutes Section
270.11, without rights of entry and exploration. This conveyance must be
approved by a Supermajority Vote (5 Commissioners). (PREM) District 6

motion to approve:
A) Proposed allocations for funding following
an RFP process for the service categories of Domestic Abuse/Sheltering and
Homelessness, under the Financially Assisted Agencies (FAA) Program, for the
period of October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019, in a total amount not to
exceed $1,615,920; and

under the FAA Program, for the period of October 1, 2018 through September 30,
2019, in a total amount not to exceed $11,255,152.
SUMMARY: This
item provides the recommended FY 2019 funding allocations for the FAA Program.
The FAA recommendations in the Domestic Abuse/Sheltering and Homelessness
categories reflect the results of an RFP process initiated in March of this
year. On June 4, 2018, a second RFP for FY 2019 FAA funds was released. A panel
review will convene on July 2, 2018 to score and rank the proposals.
Public meetings were held on January 30, 2018 through January 31, 2018 and the
funding priorities were established for the initial RFP. The initial RFP had
three funding priorities: Housing, including permanent housing and Rapid
Rehousing, Case Management, and Homeless Prevention. The second RFP was
released to request projects in the funding priority of Rapid Rehousing and
Case Management supporting a Rapid Rehousing program or a combination of both.
Allocations in the other FAA categories are based on prior year’s funding as
this is a renewal year in the three-year cycle for those categories. The total amount of funding being allocated
in this item is $12,871,072. Funding for these allocations is included in the
County Administrator’s proposed FY 2019 budget and is subject to approval by
the Board of County Commissioners. (Financially Assisted Agencies) Countywide
