PAGE ITEM
6 2C-9A ADD-ON: Proclamation declaring May 2015 as
“Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Awareness Month” in Palm Beach County.
(Sponsored by Vice Mayor Berger)
10 3D-1 DELETED: Staff recommends motion to authorize: Anne Gannon, Palm Beach County
Constitutional Tax Collector, to identify and collect any sources of funds to
compensate the County from any damages arising from the foreclosure crisis and
to assist the County in preventing further injuries that may arise from it.
(County Attorney) (Postponed at the request of the Tax Collector)
16 3H-7 REVISED SUMMARY: Staff
recommends motion to: A) adopt a Resolution authorizing a Restated Lease
Agreement to Lutheran Services Florida, Inc., a not-for-profit 501(c)(3)
corporation (LSF) for the provision of Head Start services at 6415 Indiantown
Road, Jupiter (Jupiter);… SUMMARY: On
May 20, 2014, the Board approved Lease Agreements with LSF for space within
County occupied buildings at Jupiter (R2014-0705), Riviera Beach (R2014-0707),
and Westgate (R2014-0709) (Shared Facilities) to enable LSF to assume
responsibility for the provision of Head Start program services in Palm Beach
County. The Leases allocated repair and maintenance responsibilities between
the County and LSF and required the parties to reevaluate the facility maintenance and repair responsibilities by May 2015, in
order to evaluate the allocation of maintenance and repair responsibilities
based on actual facility usage. The Restated Leases continue the current
division of maintenance and repair responsibilities and establish an Annual
Service Charge to be paid by LSF to County. The Annual Service Charge is a pro rata share
of the County’s annual maintenance, repair and utility expenditures reported in
the Annual Maintenance Report prepared by County. LSF’s pro rata share of the annual costs is
calculated based on the proportion of the total space in the facility. County
will prepare an Annual Maintenance Report containing all of the annual
expenditures for each facility. Beginning in January 2016, and annually
thereafter, County shall notify LSF of the Annual Service Charge for each
facility, which will be payable in July. Upon Lease termination or expiration,
LSF shall pay a pro rata Annual Service Charge based on expenditures reported
from July 1 to date of termination. The annual rent is One Dollar ($1) and
the term of each Lease is to May 19, 2019. The Restated Leases clarify
various provisions regarding pest control, indoor air quality assessment and
compliance related service responsibilities and update the standard
nondiscrimination clause. In all other
respects the Restated Lease Agreements remain the same. The Resolution amends
Resolution No. 2013-1470 by amending Exhibit “A” the list of Critical
Facilities to remove Head Start facilities from the list, and to add the North
County, Mid County and West County Senior Center facilities to the list. (PREM) Districts 1, 2 & 7 (HJF) (FDO)
17 3H-8 REVISED SUMMARY: Staff recommends motion to: A)
approve a communication tower
agreement (Agreement) with the City of West Palm Beach (City) for space on a
440’ guyed communication tower and for land within the overall tower property
for construction/ installation of a County communication equipment
shelter/backup with all necessary access, utility easements and construction
easements;… SUMMARY: Since 1989, the City and the
Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) have had an interlocal agreement for
use of the City’s communications tower located at 5801 Ernest Street at the
City’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) for public safety radio equipment. The County has been administering that
agreement on behalf of the Sheriff since 2000 when the County’s public safety
radio system became operational. City is now constructing a new tower at its
sole cost and will demolish the existing tower to accomplish an expansion of
the WWTP. This Agreement replaces the
current agreement and allows the County to transfer all existing tower use
reservations to the new City tower and to construct a new communications
equipment shelter with back-up generator.
County is solely responsible for the relocation of its existing radio
equipment, for all construction and relocation costs as well as the ongoing
costs for maintenance and utilities of the County owned equipment. City agrees to perform all on-going maintenance/repair
and the renewal/replacement of the radio tower itself. County shall pay user fees ($10/yr),
maintenance fees ($3,412.99/yr $3,413.17/yr), and a
renewal/replacement fee ($2,686.37/yr) commencing on installation of the County
equipment. The maintenance fee and the renewal/replacement fees are based on
County’s pro rata share of the maintenance and renewal/ replacement costs. The maintenance fee may be adjusted annually
for the upcoming fiscal year effective October 1, by notice to the County. The renewal/replacement fee may be re-evaluated
every 3 years. The City agrees that it will not enter into an agreement with a
new user that has terms which are more favorable than those contained in this
Agreement. The term of the Agreement is for thirty years with two five-year
renewal options. The City is set to consider this Agreement on April 27, 2015.
Due to the requirement that the County remove its equipment from the existing
tower within six months, there is insufficient time to comply with the
requirements of the Purchasing Code without suffering safety impacts to the
public safety officers which utilize the County’s system. Staff is recommending
that the County’s emergency procurement be awarded to Sabre as they are the
City’s tower contractor who was selected through a competitive Request for
Proposal process and due to the timing benefits which result to the County. For
the same reasons mentioned above, Staff is requesting authorization for the
County Administrator to execute the construction contract in excess of $200,000
to expedite the ordering of the longer lead time equipment. Funding for this
project is from the 800 MHz System Renewal/Replacement Fund which is made of
annual contributions by PBSO, Fire Rescue, County departments and cities who
have direct connect agreements on the existing County system as well as PBSO
generated $12.50 funding. (FDO Admin) Countywide/District
7 (JM) (FDO)
18 3K-2 REVISED SUMMARY: Staff
recommends motion to approve: Consultant Services Authorization (CSA) No. 8 for
CD03 South County Water Services Replacement Phase 4 project with Mock Roos and
Associates, Inc. (R2014-0826) in the amount of $149,210. SUMMARY: On June 4 3, 2014, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the Water Utilities
Department (WUD) Engineering/Professional Services Contract with Mock Roos and Associates, Inc. CSA No. 8 provides for services relating to the surveying,
design, and permitting of water main replacements in the southwest area of Boca
Raton. The Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation goal
established by the SBE Ordinance (R2002-0064) is 15% overall. The contract with
Mock Roos and Associates, Inc. provides for SBE participation of 97%. CSA No. 8 includes 100% overall participation.
The cumulative SBE participation is 100% overall. Mock Roos and Associates,
Inc. is a Palm Beach County company. (WUD Project No. 15-038) District
5 (JM) (WUD)

A. ADMINISTRATION
(Cont’d)
4. Staff recommends
motion to:
A) adopt a Resolution of the Board of County
Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida approving the CareerSource Palm
Beach County (CSPBC) Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget in the amount of $13,344,844
for its programs under Public Law 113-128, enacted by Congress effective July
1, 2015 which Act is known as the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014; and
B) approve a waiver from the Statutory Individual
Training Account (ITA) requirement.
Summary: The Board of County Commissioners (BCC) of Palm Beach County has
designated CSPBC as the Workforce Development Board to design, coordinate, and
direct the local workforce development system for Palm Beach County. CSPBC
receives Federal funding through the State Department of Economic Opportunity
(DEO). Funds are received by the DEO from
the US Department of Labor and US Department of Health & Human Services.
These are formula funds which are based on the Federal budget and the local
population statistics. The DEO requires at least 50% of the Adult and
Dislocated WIOA funds to be spent on individual training activities. Due to
continued decrease in funding, CSPBC is concerned that the 50% criteria may not
be met and as a result is requesting a waiver from the requirement. Although a
waiver will be sought, CSPBC will strive to meet the 50% requirement. The Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget, in the
amount of $13,344,844, includes anticipated revenues from the U.S. Department
of Labor of $10,636,762; $2,398,478 from U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families; $57,698 from a grant with
the School District of Palm Beach County; $251,906 from Palm Beach State
College; and $13,040 from Planned Parenthood.
Approval of this budget includes an approval to request a waiver of the
statutory Individual Training Account requirement from CareerSource Florida.
Due to decreased funding, approval for a waiver is necessary to ensure that
overall services to participants are not reduced. Countywide (JB)

5. Staff recommends
motion to receive and file: a list of Clerk & Comptroller (Clerk) Finance
Department records which have been converted to an electronic format. SUMMARY: Pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 119 “Public Records”, Florida
Statutes Section 257.36 “Records and Information Management”, Florida
Administrative Code, Chapter 1B-24 and Florida Administrative Code, Chapter
1B-26, the Clerk & Comptroller’s Office has partnered with the County’s Information
Systems Services (ISS) Department to convert Clerk & Comptroller (Clerk)
Finance Department records into an electronic format. ISS maintains an in-house
scanning service which the Clerk’s office elected to use instead of contracting
with an outside vendor. After the paper format of the record is converted into
an electronic format, and the completeness and accuracy of the electronic
version has been verified, the paper format will be destroyed. Each quarter,
the Clerk’s Office will provide the Board with a list of those records
converted from paper to an electronic format. The electronic records will be
maintained according to their required retention schedule under the State of
Florida’s General Records Schedule GSI-SL for State and Local Government
Agencies. Once the electronic records have met the required retention schedule
of the Florida Division of Library and Information Services, the Clerk’s Records Management Liaison Officer will
ensure proper disposition of eligible records upon receiving a written approval
of certificate of destruction from the Clerk Finance Department’s appointed
custodian. Annually, the Clerk’s Office will provide
the Board with a list of electronic documents destroyed. Countywide

1. Staff recommends
motion to approve:
A) Work Order 2013052-030 utilizing Palm Beach County’s (County) Annual Asphalt Milling and Resurfacing Contract R2013-0235 (Contract) with Community Asphalt Corp. (Community) in the amount of $258,000 for County Road 880 from Main Street to the east for approximately two miles; and
B) Work Order 2013052-031 utilizing the County’s Contract with Community in the amount of $268,000 for Corkscrew Boulevard from Ritta Village Boulevard to the south for approximately 1.7 miles.
SUMMARY: Approval of these two Work Orders will allow the contractual services necessary to construct all the improvements. Funding is provided through the ‘Glades Area Roads Repair/Reconstruction’ account within the Five Year Road Program. Per County PPM CW-F-050, these Work Orders exceed the threshold relating to staff approvals of contracts, thus requiring approval from the Board of County Commissioners. District 6 (MRE)
2. Staff recommends motion to approve: an Interlocal Agreement (Agreement) with the City of West Palm Beach (City) to provide for street light repairs on the Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard bridge over the FEC Railway (Project). SUMMARY: Approval of this Agreement will allow the City to reimburse Palm Beach County (County) for making street light repairs along the Project. The County owns and maintains the bridge, but the City owns and maintains the street light system within and upon the bridge. The City does not have the expertise and desires to reimburse the County for making the needed street light repairs. District 7 (MRE)

authorize: Anne Gannon, Palm Beach County Constitutional Tax
Collector, to identify and collect any sources of funds to compensate the
County from any damages arising from the foreclosure crisis and to assist the
County in preventing further injuries that may arise from it. SUMMARY: Approval of this motion

1. Staff recommends
motion to receive and file: Business Associate Agreement with Southeast Florida Behavioral Health Network, Inc. (SEFBHN). SUMMARY: Under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, a HIPAA
business associate agreement involves a HIPAA covered
entity and a HIPAA business associate. The Agreement protects personal health
information in accordance with HIPAA guidelines and facilitates the sharing of
protected health information among and between SEFBHN and the County. The Board of County Commissioners has
delegated authority to Brad Merriman, Assistant County Administrator to
sign these agreements relating to HIPAA.
This item is being submitted in accordance with Countywide PPM No. CW-O-051 to allow the Clerk’s Office to note and receive the
executed agreement. (FAA)

2. Staff recommends
motion to approve: Amendment No. 2 to Contract for Provision of Ryan
White Part A HIV Health Support Services with
FoundCare, Inc. (R2014-0584), for the period March 1, 2014, through February
28, 2015 to increase funding by $20,300, for a total not to exceed $3,507,423
to reallocate budget between service programs. Summary: This Amendment is
necessary to allow for payment of services rendered during the grant year. The reallocation of funds is necessary due to
the unexpected demand for housing services during the month of February 2015. Additional funds of $20,300 will be
reallocated to Housing Services from the Ryan White program administrative
dollars. FoundCare, Inc. Lilia Perez and Quinton Dames serve on a
County Advisory Board, the HIV CARE Council.
The HIV CARE Council provides no regulation, oversight, management, or
policy-setting recommendations regarding the agency contract listed above.
Disclosure of these contractual relationships at a duly noticed public meeting
is being provided in accordance with the provisions of Sect. 2-443, of the Palm
Beach County Code of Ethics. No County funds

1. Staff recommends
motion to approve: a Contract with Community Asphalt Corp. in
the amount of $3,984,047 for the Miscellaneous Pavement Rehabilitation and
Reconstruction project at Palm Beach County Park (Lantana) Airport. SUMMARY:
This project was advertised utilizing the County’s competitive bid process. On
February 24, 2015, five bids were received for the Miscellaneous Pavement
Rehabilitation and Reconstruction at Lantana Airport. Of the five (5) bids, Community Asphalt
Corp., a Palm Beach County company has been identified as the lowest
responsible/responsive bidder in the amount of $3,984,047. The Disadvantaged

2013-1470, the resolution identifying the County facilities determined to be
critical to public safety or security and critical to criminal justice
information security, by amending Exhibit “A”,
the list of critical facilities, by deleting Head Start facilities and
by adding Senior Center facilities.
SUMMARY: On May 20, 2014, the Board approved Lease Agreements with LSF for space
within County occupied buildings at Jupiter (R2014-0705), Riviera Beach
(R2014-0707), and Westgate (R2014-0709) (Shared Facilities) to enable LSF to
assume responsibility for the provision of Head Start program services in Palm
Beach County. The Leases allocated repair and maintenance responsibilities
between the County and LSF and required the parties to reevaluate the facility
maintenance and repair responsibilities by May 2015, in order to evaluate the
allocation of maintenance and repair responsibilities based on actual facility
usage. The Restated Leases continue the current division of maintenance and
repair responsibilities and establish an Annual Service Charge to be paid by
LSF to County. The Annual Service Charge
is a pro rata share of the County’s annual maintenance, repair and utility
expenditures reported in the Annual Maintenance Report prepared by County. LSF’s pro rata share of the annual costs is
calculated based on the proportion of the total space in the facility. County
will prepare an Annual Maintenance Report containing all of the annual expenditures
for each facility. Beginning in January 2016, and annually thereafter, County
shall notify LSF of the Annual Service Charge for each facility, which will be
payable in July. Upon Lease termination or expiration, LSF shall pay a pro rata
Annual Service Charge based on expenditures reported from July 1 to date of
termination. The annual rent is One Dollar ($1) and the term of each Lease
is to May 19, 2019. The Restated Leases clarify various provisions
regarding pest control, indoor air quality assessment and compliance related
service responsibilities and update the standard nondiscrimination clause. In all other respects the Restated Lease
Agreements remain the same. The Resolution
amends Resolution No. 2013-1470 by amending Exhibit “A” the list of Critical
Facilities to remove Head Start facilities from the list, and to add the North
County, Mid County and West County Senior Center facilities to the list. (PREM) Districts 1 & 7 (HJF)

SUMMARY: Staff
recommends motion to:
A) approve a Communication Tower
Agreement (Agreement) with the City of West Palm Beach (City) for space on a
440’ guyed communication tower and for land within the overall tower property
for construction/ installation of a County communication equipment
shelter/backup with all necessary access, utility easements and construction
easements;
B) approve
an emergency procurement with Sabre Communications Corporation (Sabre); and
C) authorize
the County Administrator or his designee to execute the construction and
equipment relocation contract with Sabre in an amount not to exceed $550,000.
SUMMARY: Since
1989, the City and the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) have had an
interlocal agreement for use of the City’s communications tower located at 5801
Ernest Street at the City’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) for public safety
radio equipment. The County has been
administering that agreement on behalf of the Sheriff since 2000 when the
County’s public safety radio system became operational. City is now
constructing a new tower at its sole cost and will demolish the existing tower
to accomplish an expansion of the WWTP.
This Agreement replaces the current agreement and allows the County to
transfer all existing tower use reservations to the new City tower and to
construct a new communications equipment shelter with back-up generator. County is solely responsible for the
relocation of its existing radio equipment, for all construction and relocation
costs as well as the ongoing costs for maintenance and utilities of the County
owned equipment. City agrees to perform
all on-going maintenance/repair and the renewal/replacement of the radio tower
itself. County shall pay user fees
($10/yr), maintenance fees ($3,412.99/yr $3,413.17/yr), and a
renewal/replacement fee ($2,686.37/yr) commencing on installation of the County
equipment. The maintenance fee and the renewal/replacement fees are based on
County’s pro rata share of the maintenance and renewal/ replacement costs. The maintenance fee may be adjusted annually
for the upcoming fiscal year effective October 1, by notice to the County. The renewal/replacement fee may be
re-evaluated every 3 years. The City agrees that it will not enter into an
agreement with a new user that has terms which are more favorable than those
contained in this Agreement. The term of the Agreement is for thirty years with
two five-year renewal options. The City is set to consider this Agreement on
April 27, 2015. Due to the requirement that the County remove its equipment
from the existing tower within six months, there is insufficient time to comply
with the requirements of the Purchasing Code without suffering safety impacts
to the public safety officers which utilize the County’s system. Staff is
recommending that the County’s emergency procurement be awarded to Sabre as
they are the City’s tower contractor who was selected through a competitive
Request for Proposal process and due to the timing benefits which result to the
County. For the same reasons mentioned above, Staff is requesting authorization
for the County Administrator to execute the construction contract in excess of
$200,000 to expedite the ordering of the longer lead time equipment. Funding
for this project is from the 800 MHz System Renewal/Replacement Fund which is
made of annual contributions by PBSO, Fire Rescue, County departments and
cities who have direct connect agreements on the existing County system as well
as PBSO generated $12.50 funding. (FDO

services providers, first responder organizations, and other emergency medical
service related organizations with funds for projects to acquire, repair,
improve, or upgrade emergency medical services systems, or equipment. Fire Rescue submitted an application for Stryker
Power-Pro stretchers and stretcher loading systems. If awarded the grant request, Fire Rescue
will purchase eight Stryker Power-Pro stretchers with an expandable patient
surface and stretcher loading systems. By
strategically placing a rescue with a Power Load unit in each battalion of the
department we will ensure a quick response due to the extremely large
geographic area of the county we provide service. The total weight of the Stryker Power Pro
stretcher with the average patient and equipment is approximately 350 pounds.
Our crews are loading and unloading patients with this amount of weight
numerous times per day. The Power Load system supports the weight of the
stretcher, patient and equipment during loading and unloading until the wheels
are on the ground. By installing a stretcher loading system we will reduce the
injuries to our personnel and improve patient safety by minimizing the
potential for patient drops. The grant
application requests $234,642 from the grant program. Fire Rescue will be responsible for 25% of
the local match, or $78,214. The local
match shall be funded from Fire Rescue’s contingency reserve. Grant rules
require submission of grant applications by mail in order to assure an
efficient review and competitive scoring of all funding requests submitted
under this program. The deadline for
submission of this Grant Application to the grantor agency was 4:00 p.m. on
March 13, 2015. Due to the preparation
time, submittal deadlines, and BCC meeting dates, the Grant Application had to
be submitted prior to full Board approval.
Pursuant to Section 309.00 of the Palm Beach County Administrative Code,
the Mayor approved this Grant Application, which now must be ratified by the
Board. The Grant Application includes
certifications of compliance with required assurances and certifications, as
stated in the application and related program guidance. Countywide (SB)

C. CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMMISSION
1. Staff recommends
motion to adopt: a Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of
Palm Beach County, Florida, to support a new initiative to reduce the number of
people with mental illnesses housed in local jails. SUMMARY: The
National Association of Counties (NACo), the Council of State Governments (CSG)
Justice Center, and the American Psychiatric Foundation (APF), in partnership
with the U.S. Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Assistance, will launch a
new initiative to support counties of all sizes in reducing the number of
people with mental illnesses in jails. Stepping
Up: A National Initiative to Reduce the Number of People with Mental Illnesses
in Jails will provide assistance to counties that want to see
better results—in diversion, reduced recidivism and recovery—for people with
mental illnesses by drawing on the expertise and experiences of state and local
policymakers, criminal justice and behavioral health professionals, and
individuals with mental illnesses and their families. As part of the Call to Action for Stepping Up, NACo and
partners are calling on counties to pass a resolution to reduce the number of
people with mental illnesses in the county jail. Statistically, county jails spend 2 to 3
times more on adults with mental illnesses that require interventions compared
to those without those treatment needs. Countywide (JB)
