recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution of the Board of County
Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, adopting the FY 2015/2016 Budget
Amendment for the Air Pollution Control Program. Summary: This Resolution is required by
the August 21, 1984, Agreement between the Board of County Commissioners and
the Department of Health Palm Beach County (DOHPBC) to establish the annual
budget for the expenditure of fees deposited into the Air Pollution Control
Trust Fund. This program is solely
supported by motor vehicle license registration fees collected by the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The proposed FY 2015/2016 budget
Amendment for the Air Pollution Control Program from this funding source is $60,000.
In August 2015, the County approved the 2015/16 budget for the Air Pollution
Control Program for $960,000 $966,000. This additional $60,000 is
requested support the expenses associated with the vehicle purchase ($22,000)
and the air monitoring station relocation ($38,000). The budget for the air monitoring station is
increased due to the modifications required by the US Environmental Protection
Agency. This budget can be accommodated by future revenues and a surplus in the
Air Pollution Control Trust Fund. This is a state funding source. The amount is specifically designated by
statute for this program and is currently available. Countywide (HH) (Health Dept)

motion to approve: the write-off of uncollectible accounts receivables
in the amount of $130,435.26. SUMMARY:
The Office of Financial
Management and Budget’s Collections Coordinator has reviewed the listing of
uncollectible accounts receivables
prepared by the Clerk & Comptroller’s Finance Department and has concluded
that these accounts should be written off the active accounts receivable
ledger. These accounts were for various
accounts receivable including maintenance services, Medicaid charges and cases
and judgments owed to the County from as far back as 1991.The write-off of
these receivables to an uncollectible database is not a forgiveness of the debt
and if the opportunity to collect on any of these accounts should arise, the
appropriate action will be taken to collect on the amount due. The approval of
this item will allow the accounts to be removed from the accounts receivable
ledger and transfer them to an uncollectible debts database. Countywide (PFK)

recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution of the Board of County
Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, adopting the FY 2015/2016 Budget
Amendment for the Air Pollution Control Program. Summary: This Resolution is required by the August 21,
1984, Agreement between the Board of County Commissioners and the Department of
Health Palm Beach County (DOHPBC) to establish the annual budget for the
expenditure of fees deposited into the Air Pollution Control Trust Fund. This program is solely supported by motor
vehicle license registration fees collected by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP). The proposed FY 2015/2016 budget Amendment for
the Air Pollution Control Program from this funding source is $60,000. In
August 2015, the County approved the 2015/16 budget for the Air Pollution
Control Program for $960,000 $966,000. This additional $60,000 is
requested support the expenses associated with the vehicle purchase ($22,000)
and the air monitoring station relocation ($38,000). The budget for the air monitoring station is
increased due to the modifications required by the US Environmental Protection
Agency. This budget can be accommodated by future revenues and a surplus in the
Air Pollution Control Trust Fund. This is a state funding source. The amount is specifically designated by
statute for this program and is currently available. Countywide (HH)

Summary: The Palm Tran Service
Board is composed of 13 At-Large members with specific seat categories. There are currently three vacancies on the
Board and five members are requesting reappointment. On July 18, 2016, staff circulated a memo to
the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) requesting support of the members. The
Resolutions currently governing the Palm Tran Service Board, state that all
members shall be residents of Palm Beach County, and do not allow for
exceptions. In March 2013, the BCC adopted new uniform policies and procedures
governing advisory boards, and allowed for exemptions to the residency
requirement when circumstances warrant outside technical/professional
representation. In the case of Mr. Mattingly, staff is requesting the BCC waive
the residency requirement since Seat 10 is assigned to a fixed route bus
operator, and there are no residency requirements for Palm Tran’s fixed route
bus operators. No additional nominations were received. The diversity
composition, including the reappointments, would be Caucasian: 7 (70%),
African-American: 2 (20%) and Multicultural: 1 (10%). The gender ratio (male: female) would be 8:2.
For the three remaining vacancies, Palm Tran staff will conduct targeted
outreach in an effort to proffer candidates for appointment that will improve
the diversity composition of the Board. Countywide (DR)

June 20, 2016, Minto West utilized unique provisions in Chapter 165.0615
Florida Statutes, created in 2012, that allowed it to incorporate as the City
of Westlake. Beginning in mid-2013, County staff and Minto worked on a mixed-use
residential and commercial development project within the Central Western
Communities (CWC) portion of the County. The 3,800 acre project, then
known as Minto West, obtained Comprehensive Plan amendments, Unified Land
Development Code amendments, a Zoning Development Order and use approvals. In addition, Minto entered into a proportionate
fair share agreement with the County, all to help achieve a long-standing
County vision to help balance uses, provide for public benefits, and the
requisite infrastructure within the CWC. Within the amendments, approvals, and
agreements Minto West made numerous commitments to the County regarding public
benefits, roads, drainage and other items. The County expects Westlake to adhere to the items within the development
order. At the direction of the Board, staff reviewed the fiscal impacts
of the municipal incorporation and provided the information via memorandum of

Fire-Rescue Station No. 22 Minto Westlake project in the amount of $375,398. SUMMARY:
Staff has prepared this item for Board consideration given the longstanding
interest in this facility and the desire to expedite its delivery. This contract provides for the design,
permitting and construction administration services for a 4 bay fire station,
approximately 10,000 sq. ft., on Seminole Pratt Whitney Road in the City of

was identified by County staff and committed by Minto Communities for approval
of the Minto West Development Order granted by the Board on October 29, 2014
(R-2014-1646). Conveyance of that site
to the County is due no later than May 31, 2017, which was intentionally timed

E) a Budget Amendment of $1,463,025 within the Fire Rescue Capital
Improvement Fund (Fund 3700) to recognize revenue from the Fire/Rescue MSTU
(Fund 1300), establish budget to fund the purchase of Village Station No. 1 and
Village Station No. 2, and transfer $283,640 from the Fire Rescue Capital
Improvement Fund’s contingency reserves to fully fund the purchase of both fire
stations.
SUMMARY: The County
currently provides fire-rescue services to the Village through the Village’s
participation in the Fire Rescue MSTU.
The Village owns two fire stations: Village Station No. 1 (also known as
County Station No. 28), located at 1040 Royal Palm Beach Boulevard; and Village
Station No. 2 (also known as County Station No. 29), located at 10055 Belvedere
Road. Pursuant to the Interlocal Agreement, the County uses both stations to
provide fire-rescue services to the Village. The existing Interlocal Agreement
requires monthly rental payments totaling $225,000 per year to the Village for
use of these two fire stations. As it is
expected that Fire Rescue will provide service to the Village for at least the
next 10 years, it is more cost effective for Fire Rescue to purchase the stations. These new Agreements provide for Fire Rescue
to purchase the two stations at their assessed value totaling $1,746,664.48,
and rental payments will terminate at closing.
The properties will be deed restricted principally for fire-rescue
purposes. On June 13, 2016, the Property
Review Committee reviewed the proposed transaction and concurred with using the
assessed value of the fire stations as opposed to obtaining appraisals. Closing of Village Station No. 2 is expected
to occur by September 30, 2016 and Village Station No. 1 is anticipated to
close by April of 2017. This purchase must be approved by a supermajority
vote (5 Commissioners). (PREM) District 6 (HJF)

1. Staff recommends
motion to approve on preliminary reading and advertise for public hearing on
September 27, 2016 at 9:30 a.m.: an Ordinance
of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, amending Chapter
19, article IX (Ordinance No. 2008-43) of the Palm Beach County Code, as
amended, the Palm Beach County Vehicle for Hire Ordinance; amending Section
19-213 (definitions); amending Section 19-217 (reciprocity); providing for
repeal of laws in conflict; providing for a savings clause; providing for
severability; providing for inclusion in the code of laws and ordinances;
providing for captions; and providing an effective date. SUMMARY: Previously,
the Board of County Commissioners directed staff to work with nearby counties
on the recommendation from the vehicle for hire industry to modify the language
in the Vehicle for Hire Ordinance with regards to reciprocity. Currently, the majority of vehicle for hire
companies licensed in Palm Beach County cannot operate in some nearby Counties
due to restrictions set forth on the number of companies permitted to operate
in those counties, specifically Broward and Miami-Dade. Palm Beach County does not restrict the
number of companies permitted to operate. The Public Safety Department’s
Division of Consumer Affairs met with Broward and Miami-Dade County staff to
review and discuss the proposed changes and agreed to provide reciprocity for
vehicle for hire companies that are licensed in Broward, Miami-Dade, St. Lucie
and/or Martin counties as long as those Counties have enacted a vehicle for
hire ordinance with business permit reciprocity in substantially the same form
as Palm Beach County’s Vehicle for Hire Ordinance. The vehicle for hire companies applying for a Palm Beach County business permit reciprocity would still
be subject to payment of all applicable fees and comply with all provisions of
the Ordinance. Staff has determined that
this change would be a minimal impact to Palm Beach County since most companies
in nearby counties already hold a Palm Beach County business permit. If other counties do not enact similar
changes to their reciprocity language, companies that hold a Palm Beach County
business permit may still not be allowed to operate in those Counties and
continue to be subject to restrictions set forth on the number of companies
permitted to operate. This proposed amendment to the Vehicle for
Hire Ordinance was presented to the League of Cities on August 24, 2016, and
was unanimously approved. Countywide (LDC)

2. Staff recommends
motion to approve on preliminary reading and advertise for public hearing on
September 27, 2016 at 9:30 a.m. an Ordinance of
the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, amending Palm Beach
County Code, Chapter 4 (Ordinance 98-22, as amended by Ordinances 2001-065,
2003-27, 2005-44, 2008-004, 2009-019, 2011-005 and 2015-027) pertaining to
animal care and control, amending Section 4-1 (short tile); amending Section
4-2 (definitions); amending Section 4-23 (kennel, excess animal habitat,
commercial breeder, pet dealer, pet shop, grooming parlor, and commercial
stable permits); amending Section 4-26 (animal agencies); amending Section 4-27
(aggressive dogs, dangerous dogs and vicious dogs); amending Section 4-28
(sterilization program for dogs and cats); amending Section 4-29 (hobby breeder
permits); amending Section 4-30 (animal care and control special master
hearings); providing for repeal of laws in conflict; providing for savings
clause; providing for severability; providing for inclusion in the code of laws
and ordinances; providing for enforcement; providing for penalty; providing for
captions; and providing for an effective date. SUMMARY: The
Animal Care and Control Ordinance provides laws that
govern the regulation and protection of animals in Palm Beach County. The first category of ordinance revisions
reflect direction from the March 22, 2016 Board of County Commissioners meeting
which was to strengthen regulations on the sale of dogs and cats and on the
issuance of pet shop and pet dealer permits in Palm Beach County. To accomplish this request, the proposed
changes were made: prohibit the issuance of new pet shop and pet dealer commercial
operating licenses and grandfathering in of existing licensees that remain in
good standing; require pet shops and pet
dealers to obtain dogs and cats from USDA licensed breeders, dealers and
transporters that have no record of animal cruelty or neglect and have not
received certain USDA violations within the past two years; and exempt pet
shops from certain regulations when rescue dogs are offered for adoption in the
store. The next category of revisions support the Countdown to Zero mission to
allow for better monitoring on adoptions and animals entering our County as
well as supply critical data necessary to measure success of Countdown to Zero.
Changes include: require Animal Agencies
to provide adoption records to ACC monthly; and require that any animal adopted
out unsterilized by an Animal Agency due to heath concerns be brought back to
the Animal Agency or veterinarian as soon as possible for sterilization. The final category includes minor revisions
which are the following: amend regulations pertaining to dangerous and vicious
dogs for consistency with Chapter 767, Florida Statutes; and prohibit the
breeding of cats other than registered pedigreed cats. Staff determined that current resources are
not sufficient to ensure compliance and provide enforcement for these proposed
ordinance changes; therefore we will request a part-time Animal Control Officer
II position at final adoption of the Ordinance on September 27, 2016. This proposed amendment to the Palm Beach
County Animal Care and Control Ordinance was presented to the League of Cities
on August 24, 2016, and was unanimously approved. In addition, the League of Cities made a
motion to request the County to allocate additional resources to support these
changes. Countywide (SF)
