PAGE ITEM
25 3CC-1 DELETED FOR FURTHER STAFF REVIEW: Staff
recommends motion to: A)
accept on behalf of the Palm Beach
County Sheriff’s Office a National Institute of Justice Award Letter for a FY
2018 DNA Capacity Enhancement and Backlog Reduction Program Grant in the amount
of $312,793 for the period January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2020; and… (Sheriff)
32 5E-1 REVISED
SUMMARY:…Unlike most IST
projects, which are renewal/replacement in nature, this new facility will
require the allocation of approximately $3,966,484 in new annual programmatic,
operating and rapid re-housing expenses beginning in FY 2022 in the first
phase Phase 1 and an additional annual expense of $1,329,697 for
Phase 2. Staff estimates a total annual programmatic and operating expense of
$5,296,181 for Phases 1 and 2 and is requesting Board direction as to whether
it should be added to the five year operating budget projections beginning in
FY 2022. During the development of the facility, staff will continue to develop
strategies to create new non-County funding streams from private and public
sources, including the municipalities. If the BCC directs staff to include the
additional annual operating funding in its budget projections, then development
of the HRC2 can commence. The Phase 1 facility consists of an approximately
16,245 square foot building to support: 16 beds for adult men and 10 beds for
adult women; 14 Law Enforcement/recuperative care beds; guest support
facilities; staff and clinic support offices; a reception area; dedicated
offices for use by PBSO field personnel; and a multi-purpose room for facility
and community use, in addition to ancillary site improvements. Phase 1 can be fully
completed within the allocated IST and ad valorem funding of $6,900,000 funding.
Phase 2 would add 10 beds each for male and female youth and 14 adult male beds
for an additional $1,100,000. In order to provide the needed beds for homeless
youth at the earliest time possible and to reduce costs for Phase 2
construction, staff recommends concurrent construction of Phase 1 and Phase 2
and an additional allocation of capital funding in the amount of $1,100,000 in
FY 2020 to complete Phase 1 and 2 concurrently at a total cost of $8,000,000.

35 5H-1 REVISED SUMMARY: On June 13, 2016, the County acquired via

Street North in Royal Palm Beach. The County owned parcel is adjacent to a
parcel owned by the Lopezes and used as their primary residence. In April March 2004, the
Lopezes purchased two parcels – the County owned parcel and a 1.33 acre
adjoining parcel containing a 1,560 sf single family residence. (FDO)

connection with their funding application to the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP). SUMMARY:
The FHC has prepared an application to HUD seeking funding under the FHIP
program for its Private Enforcement Initiative Multi-Year Project. HUD requires the County to confirm that the
activities to be undertaken by the FHC are consistent with the County’s current
approved Consolidated Plan. Confirmation of this consistency is documented
through the execution of form titled “Certification of Consistency with the
Consolidated Plan.” The Department of
Housing and Economic Sustainability (HES) has reviewed the Project Abstract
from FHC application which outlines the objectives and activities to be
undertaken by FHC. The Project Abstract
states that FHC will address all forms of housing discrimination by the Fair
Housing Act and provide comprehensive services to persons with limited English
proficiency and persons with disabilities. HES has determined that these are consistent with the
overall fair housing goal broadly stated in the Consolidated Plan, and
specifically defined in the Assessment of Fair Housing as follows: (a) to
identify and ameliorate any actions, omissions, or decisions taken because
of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin
which restrict housing choices or the availability of housing choices; and, any
actions, omissions, or decisions which have the effect of restricting housing
choices or the availability of housing choices on the basis of race, color,
religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin; (b) analyze and
eliminate housing discrimination in the jurisdiction;
promote fair housing choice for all persons; provide opportunities for inclusive
patterns of housing occupancy
regardless of race, color, religion, sex, familial status, disability and national origin; promote
housing that is structurally accessible
to, and usable by, all persons, particularly persons with disabilities;
and, (c) foster compliance
with the nondiscrimination provisions of the Fair Housing
Act.

set forth in the FHC application is consistent with the County’s Consolidated

4. PUBLIC HEARINGS – 9:30 A.M. (Motion to receive and file:
Proof of publication)
A. PUBLIC SAFETY
1. Staff recommends
motion to adopt: an ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners of
Palm Beach County, Florida, amending Palm Beach County Code, Chapter 13,
Article II, Division 1, (Ordinance No. 2017-030); amending Section 13-22
(Application for COPCN); providing a savings clause; providing severability;
providing inclusion in the Code of Laws and Ordinances; providing captions; and
providing for an effective date. SUMMARY: On November 20, 2018, the
Board of County Commissioners held a preliminary reading of the Emergency
Medical Services (EMS) Ordinance revisions.
The EMS Ordinance establishes standards for issuing Certificates of Public
Convenience and Necessity (COPCN’s) for Advanced Life Support service (ALS)
which applies to the unincorporated and incorporated areas of Palm Beach
County. All entities applying for a
COPCN are required to have experience providing ALS services and have staff who
have experience providing ALS services.
This amendment permits entities applying for a Special Secondary Service
Provider COPCN who have experienced staff but that lack experience providing
ALS services as an entity, to obtain a Special Secondary Service Provider COPCN
with conditions require: 1) successful provision of service for six-months; and
2) implementation of a formal quality assurance program meeting at least three
times during the six-month period. All
other requirements of the Ordinance apply to Special Secondary Service Provider
COPCN applicants. The six-month
condition is documented by letter of the primary provider and the primary
provider is invited to the quality assurance meetings. Special Secondary Service Provider COPCN holders
are companies that contract with a Homeowner’s Association to provide services
within a community. They are also
required to contract with the primary provider of ALS services, and adhere to
the primary provider’s ALS protocols and they must be licensed by the
State. The Special Secondary Service
Provider COPCN holder will report to the County Administrator, or designee,
(Public Safety Director) at the end of six-months with the letter from the
primary provider and evidence of the formal quality assurance program. The County Administrator, or designee, will
determine if the conditions have been met and if so, the COPCN shall remain in
effect until the contract with the community expires or is terminated. If the conditions have not been satisfied,
then the Special Secondary Service Provider COPCN shall be in violation of the
EMS Ordinance and the COPCN shall be subject to immediate suspension by the
County Administrator, or designee and revocation by the Board of County
Commissioners (BCC). The County
Administrator, or designee, may permit an additional 30 days to satisfy
conditions if the Applicant has demonstrated good faith efforts towards
satisfaction of the condition. Special
Secondary Service Provider COPCN experience does not meet the criteria to
establish the necessary ALS or Basic Life Support experience for a Primary or
Secondary Provider as they are not providing the full continuum of patient care
since patient care is transferred to the primary Provider, no transportation is
provided, and Special Secondary Provider’s do not provide patient care during
transport. This proposed amendment to
the EMS Ordinance was presented to the League of Cities on October 24, 2018,
and was unanimously approved. The EMS
Council has reviewed and recommends the BCC approval of the Ordinance revisions
at the November 14, 2018 EMS Council meeting. Countywide (LDC)

Cambridge Security Services Corporation (Cambridge) for The Club at Admirals
Cove. SUMMARY: Cambridge has applied
to provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) first response, non-transport services
for The Club at Admirals Cove. The
Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management (DEM) has
reviewed the application and recommends approval of a Special Secondary Service
ALS Provider – Non-Transport COPCN with conditions. Cambridge has not previously provided ALS
services but has employees on staff with ALS service experience. The Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
Ordinance authorizes a COPCN with conditions for companies with ALS experienced
staff but lacking entity performance history.
A Special Secondary COPCN with conditions is subject to review for
compliance after the initial six-months of operations. The COPCN is continued until termination of
the contract with the homeowner’s association if the six-month review of
conditions is satisfactory. The
conditions established by the EMS Ordinance are: 1) confirmation from the
Primary ALS Provider that the ALS services were satisfactorily performed during
the initial six-months of operations, and 2) documentation of entity
implementation of a formal quality assurance program including at least three
quality assurance meetings with invitation to the Primary ALS Provider. If the conditions are not satisfied, the
COPCN is subject to immediate suspension by the County Administrator, or
designee, and is subject to permanent revocation by the Board of County
Commissioners (BCC). The EMS Council reviewed the application on September 20,
2018, and recommended the BCC approval of the COPCN with conditions subject to

3. Staff recommends
motion to approve: the issuance of a Special Secondary Service
Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (COPCN) with conditions to Titan
International Security Services, Inc. (Titan) for Admirals Cove Golf Village. SUMMARY:
Titan has applied to provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) first response,
non-transport services for Admirals Cove Golf Village. The Department of Public Safety, Division of
Emergency Management (DEM) has reviewed the application and recommends approval
of a Special Secondary Service ALS Provider – Non-Transport COPCN with

the contract with the homeowner’s association if the six-month review of
conditions is satisfactory. The
conditions established by the EMS Ordinance are: 1) confirmation from the
Primary ASL Provider that the ALS services were satisfactorily performed during
the initial six-months of operations; and 2) documentation of entity
implementation of a formal quality assurance program including at least three
quality assurance meetings with invitation to the Primary ALS Provider. If the conditions are not satisfied, the
COPCN is subject to immediate suspension by the County Administrator, or
designee, and is subject to permanent revocation by the Board of County
Commissioners (BCC). The EMS Council
reviewed the application on September 20, 2018, and recommended the BCC approve
the COPCN with conditions subject to BCC approval of the EMS Ordinance revision
on December 4, 2018. Agenda item 4A-1 allows for the approval of this item. District

A. OFFICE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
1. Staff recommends motion to approve on preliminary
reading and advertise for Public Hearing on December 18, 2018 at 9:30 am: an ordinance
of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, amending
the Palm Beach County Unified Land Development Code, Ordinance 2003-70, as
amended, by amending Article 13, concerning countywide impact fee amounts and
certain benefit zones, as follows:
Chapter B – County district, regional, and beach parks impact fee;
Chapter C – Fire-Rescue impact fee; Chapter D – Library impact fee; Chapter E –
Law enforcement impact fee; Chapter F – Public buildings impact fee; Chapter G
– School impact fee; Chapter H – Road impact fee; providing for repeal of laws
in conflict; providing for severability; providing for inclusion in the Unified
Land Development Code; providing for an effective date. SUMMARY: Based on the impact fee study, fees would be
increased or adjusted to the full amount allowed under the ordinance (95% of
the amount calculated in the methodology) with the exception of general office
which would be phased in over a two-year period up to the 95% amount allowed
under the ordinance. This would result
in increases for all of the fees except for road impact fees for residential
and general retail. In addition, fire
rescue impact fee collections would resume.
The fire rescue fee was discontinued after the previous impact fee
update because there were no new fire stations proposed in the 5-Year Capital
Plan. The methodology provides the
appropriate credits for other revenue sources that help fund capital facility
infrastructure including ad valorem taxes, debt service payments, federal,
state, and local grants, and gas taxes.
Adjustments would also be made to the road, parks, and school impact fee
benefit zones. Countywide (LB)

employees and three relatives of County employees to receive State Housing
Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program funds under the Purchase Assistance
Program, the Veteran’s Homeownership and Preservation Program and the Emergency
Repair Program as administered by the Department of Housing and Economic
Sustainability (HES). SUMMARY: Funding from the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018
SHIP Fiscal Years, will be used to support the requests received from all
applicants. Between January 8, 2018 and June 8, 2018, HES accepted names for
the SHIP Program waiting list. During
this period, 3,624 applicants were placed on the waiting list. Staff subsequently contacted all of the
applicants to advise them that the SHIP applications would be available on June
11, 2018 through July 13, 2018. During this period, 1,136 applications were
distributed for the Purchase Assistance Program, Veteran’s Homeownership and
Preservation Program and Emergency Repair Program. To date, 218 applications have
been received which included nine from County employees and three from
relatives of County employees. Under these three SHIP Programs, no loan
repayment is due as long as the home remains the homeowner’s primary residence.
If the homeowner rents, sells, or otherwise conveys the home during the term of
the mortgage, then the entire principal amount of the loan will become due and
payable. The Purchase Assistance Program (PAP) provides assistance in the form
of a deferred forgivable loan, which is secured by thirty-year second mortgage.
Funding for the PAP is committed once an executed sales contract is received. The
Veteran’s Homeownership and Preservation Program (VHPP) provides assistance in
the form of a deferred forgivable loan, which is secured by a fifteen-year
second mortgage. Funding for VHPP buyers
who are looking to purchase a home, is committed once an executed sales
contract is received. The Emergency Repair Program provides assistance in the
form of a deferred forgivable loan, which is secured by a fifteen-year second
mortgage. Applications for this program
are accepted year round, as funding remains available. These are State SHIP funds which
require no local match. Countywide (JB)

B) budget
transfer of $119,167 from the Head Start Match reallocation (Unit 1451) for
evidence-based/promising programming to the CHS program (Unit 2531) to fund the
cost associated with this Contract.
SUMMARY: When the Youth Services Department
(Department) was created, the Board of County Commissioners assigned a number
of responsibilities to the Department, one of which was a Family
Visitation/Exchange program. The program
need was identified by Juvenile Court judges and ChildNet, Inc. A subcommittee
of the Community Alliance researched a location that could accommodate the
need. The subcommittee identified the
former Nelle Smith Group Home at CHS, which has been remodeled to include eight
age-specific rooms, shared space where educational programs and group meetings,
as well as a full kitchen and outdoor playground. Students from the Florida Atlantic University
School of Social Work will be supervising the visitations, which provides the
needed services to the children and families and provides for the required
experience for the students. Approval of the Contract will provide much needed
resources to those Palm Beach County children and families in the dependency
system. The effective date of service for the above contract submitted for
approval is prior to this meeting date. Countywide (HH)

1. Staff requests
Board direction:
A) on the inclusion of new operating
expenses, currently estimated at $5,296,181 annually, associated with the
second Homeless Resource Center (HRC2) beginning in FY 2022; and
B) on the allocation of additional
capital funding in the amount of $1,100,000, estimated to occur in FY 2020, to
accommodate the concurrent build-out of Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the HRC2.
SUMMARY: In November
2016, Palm Beach County voters approved a referendum to raise the sales tax
rate by one penny to address backlogged infrastructure renewal, replacement,
and construction, for a ten year period. The Infrastructure Surtax (IST)
Project Plan, approved by the Board on April 4, 2017, allocates $5,700,000 in
FY 2019 toward the construction of an HRC2 to supplement the County’s Senator
Philip D. Lewis Center (Lewis Center), as well as $1,200,000 for a PBSO
satellite office facility to be located in the western Lake Worth area. Unlike
most IST projects, which are renewal/replacement in nature, this new facility
will require the allocation of approximately $3,966,484 in new annual
programmatic, operating and rapid re-housing expenses beginning in FY 2022 in the
first phase Phase 1 and an additional annual expense of $1,329,697
for Phase 2. Staff estimates a total annual programmatic and operating expense
of $5,296,181 for Phases 1 and 2 and is requesting Board direction as to
whether it should be added to the five year operating budget projections
beginning in FY 2022. During the development of the facility, staff will
continue to develop strategies to create new non-County funding streams from
private and public sources, including the municipalities. If the BCC directs
staff to include the additional annual operating funding in its budget
projections, then development of the HRC2 can commence. The Phase 1 facility
consists of an approximately 16,245 square foot building to support: 16 beds
for adult men and 10 beds for adult women; 14 Law Enforcement/recuperative care
beds; guest support facilities; staff and clinic support offices; a reception
area; dedicated offices for use by PBSO field personnel; and a multi-purpose
room for facility and community use, in addition to ancillary site
improvements. Phase 1 can be fully completed within the allocated IST and
ad valorem funding of $6,900,000 funding. Phase 2 would add 10 beds
each for male and female youth and 14 adult male beds for an additional
$1,100,000. In order to provide the needed beds for homeless youth at the
earliest time possible and to reduce costs for Phase 2 construction, staff
recommends concurrent construction of Phase 1 and Phase 2 and an additional
allocation of capital funding in the amount of $1,100,000 in FY 2020 to
complete Phase 1 and 2 concurrently at a total cost of $8,000,000.

June 13, 2016, the County acquired via Escheatment Tax Deed a vacant 1.33 acre
County owned parcel located at 40th Street North in Royal Palm
Beach. The County owned parcel is adjacent to a parcel owned by the Lopezes and
used as their primary residence. In April
March 2004, the Lopezes purchased two parcels – the County owned parcel
and a 1.33 acre adjoining parcel containing a 1,560 sf single family
residence. Due to an economic hardship
and the failing health of Mr. Lopez, the Lopezes were financially unable to pay
taxes on both parcels and chose to only pay taxes on their homesteaded
residence. The Lopezes have recovered economically and request that the County
re-convey the County owned parcel per Florida Statutes, Section 197.592(1),
which allows for the conveyance to the prior fee simple title owner. The County
owned parcel has a 2018 assessed value of $19,811. The Lopezes will pay
$22,524.87, equal to the taxes for the years 2007 through 2018. Staff
recommends the conveyance of this parcel to the Lopezes as: (i) the parcel
serves no present or future County purpose; (ii) the County will receive
payment of all delinquent taxes; (iii) the property will be returned to the tax
roll; and (iv) it will relieve the County of potential liability for
occurrences on the property. This
conveyance must be approved by a Supermajority Vote (5 Commissioners). (PREM) District 6 (HJF)
