Dear Chairman Bryant: The un-audited amounts returned to the Board of County Commission for fiscal year 2017-2018 are as follows:

Total County-Wide Budgets $ 1,371,856 Less Grant Funds $ (217,766) Total Count-Wide Funds $1,154,090 MSTU Budget $ 996,526 Less Grant Funds $ (226,362) Less Law Enforcement Trust Fund $ (12,054) Total MSTU Funds $ 758,109 Total Unexpended Funds Returned $ 1,912,199

Page 744, Book Y

November 20,2018

I am respectfully requesting $758,109 from the MSTU budget and $1,154,090 from the County-Wide budgets to be returned to my budget via amendment. This money will be used to purchase the foUowing:

• $664,940 from the returned county-wide funds will be used to purchase a new Records Management System.

• $758,109 from the returned MSTU for Law Enforcement and $208,205 from county-wide funds, a total of $966,314 will be used to set up a disaster recovery site at the back up Emergency Operations Center located in the new Ocala/Marion County Visitor and Convention Bureau building.

• $280,945 from the returned county-wide funds will be used towards the purchase of a new property room management system that will help manage and store inmate property when booked into the County Jail.

Your consideration and support in this matter is greatly appreciated. Respectfully, Sheriff Billy Woods

A motion was made by Commissioner Bryant, seconded by Commissioner Moore, to approve the request to return $758,109 from the MSTU budget and $1,154,090 from the Countywide budgets via budget amendments. The motion was unanimously approved by the Board (5-0). (Ed. Note: MSTU is the acronym for Municipal Service Taxing Unit.) Bureau Chief Jerry Holland, MCSO, advised that MCSO is proposing to use the returned funds for 3 items: 1) to purchase a new records management system, which is software that handles all of the records and has several modules for civil and other areas; 2) to set up a viable disaster recovery system in the new Ocala/Marion County Visitor and Convention Bureau (VCB) building; and 3) a new property room management system, which is currently managed by a detention deputy who sorts all property by hand. The new system will by a conveyer syste-n where the items are packaged, numbered and stored in the property room at the jail. This is something that has been put off for years and could be addressed this year. Chairman Stone stated she spo-re with Sheriff Woods regarding the efficiency that items 1 and 3 will bring to the jail, which will also be an enhancement for staffing with Marion County. County Administrator Mounir Bouyounes advised that a project is included in the 2018-19 Sales Tax Plan to renovate and upgrade the bottom floor at the Wells Fargo building to be a backup Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The plan includes renovating the whole floor, adding desks and works stations for Emergency Management and 9-1-1 Communications, as well as a conference room. He stated there is a lot of Information Technology (IT) work planned on that floor and recommended staff coordinate with MCSO to discuss whether some of the work could be included in the Sales Tax project. Chairman Stone stated Sheriff Woods indicated his agreement to set aside those funds for the emergency management piece until staff is able to review all the equipment and ensure those needs will be met. She recommended the $966,314 be moved into Reserves until staff works through the details. Cheif Holland concurred. Commissioner Zalak stated the Board is a few months away from receiving a jail report and opined that the best thing to do is wait 2 or 3 months for the jail report and hold a workshop to ensure all priorities are on the table before the funds are spent.

November 20, 2018

Commissioner Gold advised that the jail management system might not be something that is addressed by the usual jail report because it is property coming in that belongs to the inmate. Chairman Zalak stated it is unclear what the jail report will hold, noting the Board does not have all the information today and may regret spending funds now. Major Clint Bowen, MCSO, Bureau Chief of Detention, advised that a warehouse of boxes containing inmate property is stacked 7 to 8 feet in the air on shelving and is unsanitary. The request is to move to a conveyor system similar to laundromat-or dry cleaners. Commissioner Gold stated when inmates are brought in their clothes are not washed; whatever they are wearing when they arrive is boxed, which can be unsanitary and has been an issue for a long time. Also, the property becomes the responsibility of the jail to maintain. Major Bowen advised that if the property is extremely soiled, such as clothing, that needs to be cleaned MCSO does clean and store the property. The property is stored in cardboard boxes, which is a fire hazard. He stated items have been stored this way for years and MCSO has never had the funding or the opportunity for funding to address the issue. Staff has received quotes, which have increased over the years and it is unclear how much more the cost could increase. In response to Chairman Stone, Major Bowen advised that the cost for the system is approximately $280,945. Commissioner Bryant stated each year the Sheriff has leftover funds and the Board has allowed him the flexibility to present those funds and then returned them to MCSO. She advised that the BCC has given the Sheriff authorization to run the jail on behalf of the Board, noting Sheriff Woods runs all of the other law enforcement operations within the county. Commissioner Bryant opined that it is in the best interest for the Board to allow the Sheriff to prioritize where the funds would be best spent, noting he has done a good job this far. Chairman Stone noted Sheriff Woods recognized there could be some opportunity with Emergency Management and is okay with the Board placing the $966,314 in Reserves to ensure that efforts are not being duplicated. General discussion ensued. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Major Bowen advised that the proposed system would store all items in plastic bags, similar to a clothing bag. The bags will be cleaned after use and integrated back into the system. Chairman Stone opined that both the 1st and 3rd bullet points will bring efficiencies to MCSO. Chief Holland clarified that the proposed funds are for a Disaster Recovery Site for IT and is separate from Emergency Management, but MCSO is willing to work with the county to ensure efforts are not being duplicated. A motion was made by Commissioner Gold, seconded by Commissioner Moore, to return unexpended funds in the amount of $1,912,199 to the Sheriff Budget for purchase of items as identified above and move $966,314 into Reserves for the time being. The motion was unanimously approved by the Board (5-0).

5. CLERK OF THE CIRCUIT COURT: 5A. Request Adoption of the Following Budget Amendment Resolutions: Clerk Ellspermann clarified that Items 5A1, 5A8, and 5A22 are related to Item 4A.

50. Present Report No. 2018-11: EDFIG Compliance Review of Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, Inc. Clerk Ellspermann presented the following recommendation from Internal Audit Director Sachiko Leon:

Description/Background: IHMC submitted their seventh and final annual report. Internal Audit concluded that IHMC was not in compliance with the applicable sections of the grant agreement and recommended that the County Administration seek a repayment of $10,450 from IHMC. The grant agreement is contractually binding. Section 2 of the agreement states that "IHMC agrees to comply with and perform" the requirements which were to concurrently meet the employee and payroll requirements. The Clerk's Office believes that not seeking the repayment specified in the agreement will create a precedent and an appearance of unfairness to other past and current grant recipients (see Exhibit) who also contribute to the community but either had to repay or accepted lower amounts due to not fully meeting the grant performance requirements. The County Administration agrees with the Internal Audit's analysis but does not wish to seek the recommended repayment based 011 the IHMC's contribution for the Marion County community. Budget Impact: None. Recommended Action: Motion to approve the Internal Audit's recommendation and seek $10,450 repayment.

Clerk Ellspermann advised that there are 6 corporations who had to either repay or accept lower amounts due to not fully meeting the grant performance requirements ranging from $8,171 to $157,929. Commissioner Moore commented on the importance of the county providing a fair and level playing field. A motion was made by Commissioner Bryant, seconded by Commissioner Gold, to approve the Internal Audit's recommendation and seek $10,450 repayment. The motion was unanimously approved by the Board (5-0).

Description/Background: The first Code Enforcement Board (CEB) lien was recorded in December 2005 for an accumulation of junk on the 0.37 acre parcel on SE 155th St., Umatilla. Additional Code Enforcement Board liens were recorded in 2010 for a repeat violation of having an accumulation of junk. Finally an abatement lien for the removal of the junk was recorded in Sept. 2010; all of which were recorded while Judith Burch owned the property. On April 14, 2011, Bedford Green d/b/a RBJ II Acquisitions LLC purchased the property on a tax deed sale for $2,841.00. On September 12, 2018, Mr. Greene appeared before the Code Enforcement Board requesting the CEB fines be rescinded; indicating he will pay for the abatement cost and interest. The CEB moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners approve a conditional release of lien subject to the condition of payment of all costs expended by the County to abate the violation with interest, plus collection agency fees and administrative costs. The party responsible for the violation, Judith A. Burch, no longer owns real property in Marion County. 447096-BP 2005 CEB lien 541045-BP 2010 CEB repeat violation lien 541045-BP 2010 CEB lien 541045-..IB 2010 Junk abatement lien Abatement interest Administrative /staff costs

The Board accepted the following recommendation presented by Growth Services Director Martsolf:

Description/Background: A Code Enforcement Board (CEB) lien was recorded in January 2017 for an accumulation of junk on the one acre parcel along NW 72nd St., Ocala, then owned by Amber Horne. An abatement lien for the removal of the junk was recorded in August 2017, while still under Ms. Horne's ownership. On June 6, 2018, Candy Cloinger obtained the property via a quit claim deed as a "gift". When Ms. Cloinger applied for a permit to install a mobile home she was alerted to the liens. Ms. Cloinger stated there was no title search done; she only searched the tax records before the conveyance. On September 12, 2018, the CEB heard the owner's request for rescission of the liens and moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners approve a conditional release of lien subject to the condition of payment of all costs expended by the County to abate the violation with interest, plus any applicable collection agency fee and administrative costs.

70. Human Resources: 701. Request Approval of the Reclassification of Recreation Leader I within Parks and Recreation Budget 6118 (Budget Impact - Expenditure of $2,644) The Board considered the following recommendation to adopt Resolution 18-R-496, as presented by Human Resources (HR) Director Amanda Tart:

Description/Background: The Parks and Recreation Department (P&R) historically adapts its operations and staff to meet the needs of the community. After reviewing current workloads, the department has identified workforce shortcomings within the operations division. Currently, the department has a recreation leader I position (paygrade 4) within the recreation division which has been vacant for more than six months. The department has not been able to hire a qualified applicant to fill this position and sees an opportunity to change it from recreation leader I to park service worker II (paygrade 6). The Parks and Recreation Department is requesting to reclassify the recreation leader I position to a park service worker II position to address workload within the operations division including management of two park partnership parks (Orange Lake Community Park and John Van Fleet Park). This reclassified position would remain within the Parks & Recreation Fees fund (6118). Budget/Impact: Expenditure of $2,644

Page 756, Book Y

November 20, 2018

Neutral; additional expenditure of $550,264 as approved in FY 18/19 Infrastructure Sales Tax budget) The Board considered the following recommendation presented by Procurement Services Director Olsen:

Description/Background: On April 7, 2015, the Board awarded a project amendment to Guerra Development Corp. (GDC), for road and drainage design services associated with NW 49th/35th St. Phase 2B corridor alignment from the city line to the north edge of the lime rock pit, at a cost of $309,992. Upon encountering unexpected issues that could severely impact the project's timeline and budget, change order 1 was presented to and approved by the Board on September 7,2016. Analysis for an alternative roadway around the lime rock pit property was needed and carried an additional expenditure of $179,676. On September 27,2018, change order 2 was issued to GDC, adding 365 calendar days to the contract for additional time to adjust the design plans and carried no budget impact. Change order 3, being presented today, adds $550,264. This change order is for completion of the fina design of a new 4-lane roadway, located north of the Ocala 489 property to the northerly edge of the lime rock pit, with some modifications. In addition, an analysis and 30% preliminary design for both a bridge option and an embankment option a: the pit are included. At the time GDC began work on the final roadway design, the pit was still being operated as a lime rock mine, which continuously changed the condition of the proposed right-of-way for the project. The mining has created a deep lake that now encroaches into the proposed right-of way and requires the design and construction of either a fill embankment or a combination of a fill embankment and a bridge. BudgeUlmpact: Neutral; project cost for this additional work is $550,264. Recommended Action: Motion to approve and authorize the Chairman to execute change order for P0150719 to Guerra Development Corp. under 06Q-098-PA-15 for NW 49th/35th Street Phase 2B.

Commissioner Zalak advised that the county has an agreed upon deal for purchase of the quarry. Ms. Straub clarified that staff is currently fine tuning the agreement to go through the mine parcel. The proposed agenda item provides for a 30% set of plans to get through the mine. There are 2 alternatives; one is adding more fill and the second is creating a bridge. Staff will need surveys to determine what they are up against in order to make a decision. Commissioner Zalak commented on the amount of back fill needed for the project and expressed concern with the potential cost. He stated once the county gets to 30% of the plan GDC should have an idea of what the bridge and back fill will look like and provide options to the Board. Commissioner Zalak opined that before the county can move forward with the project it needs a commitment from a contractor securing the cost of the dirt. Juan Guerra, GDC, NE 3rd Street, advised that this project is different than 90% of the projects they have done due to the potential for changes and uncertainty. Instead of designing the project at 30%, 60%, 90%, or completing the design, GDC is designing 2 projects at the same time; one with a bridge and one without a bridge. The design will stop at 30% and will be a preliminary design that will allow them to estimate a precise cost. The project will then be presented to. the Board to determine which of the 2 options the Board prefers based on cost and other factors. He stated the only way to ensure the decision is valid is to firm out the price for dirt, noting the estimate is uncertain due to fluctuations in

Book Y, Page 757

November 20, 2018

costs for dirt in the area. The difference in cost could potentially cause a swing of $2,000,000, to $3,000,000 to the end project. In response to Commissioner Moore, Ms. Straub advised that the Board authorized staff to proceed with reviewing another alternative, which brought us further north and around the mine, but negotiations have continued with the parcel to the south through the mine property. There is a point where staff considers which option is more financially affordable and the component with the mine is still the preferred route. The cost has not tipped to force going the extra distance to the north. Commissioner Zalak commented on the benefits if right-of-way (ROW) were to be donated to the county by surrounding land owners. General discussion ensued. Ms. Straub advised that the approvals received by the county for the road is due to relief it will provide to the existing 1-75 interchanges. The route may not produce the same type of relief by going around the mine. Mr. Bouyounes advised that staff has been working with the Department of Transportation (DOT) to expedite the interchange, noting if the alternatives are changed it will delay the interchange. Commissioner Gold questioned if any discussion has taken place with the business stakeholders in the area. Ms. Straub advised that staff has not had active conversations recently with the landowners, but developers in the area are aware and have been engaged in conversations with the county. The attorney's representing the developers are also representing the Baldwins and the owners of the mine parcel. In response to Commissioner Gold, Ms. Straub stated staff does recognize the benefit from a traffic standpoint that the mine route is the best option and will continue to pursue that option. Mr. Bouyounes advised that every model DOT has run for the traffic shows going through the mine as the most efficient route. Mr. Guerra advised that going through the mine will have the biggest impact on what the county wants to address. GDC will come before the Board again after 30% design is completed and a decision on which route to take will need to be made. He stated going through the mine has a positive impact, even though it presents a lot of challenges. The 2 options are not mutually exclusive. Ms. Straub stated staff is working with Legal Staff to wrap up the purchase agreement with the property owners and plan on bringing it before the Board at the December 4, 2018 meeting. The property owners have advised staff that the December 4th meeting is a critical date and if delayed they may not necessarily be at the table again. She advised that everything is agreed to, including the area the county wants to acquire the property and at the agreed upon amount. The agreement will be brought before the Board at the next meeting and Mr. Guerra will proceed forward with the design options as indicated, which will move the county to a 30% level. Ms. Straub advised that the matter will be brought back before the Board for a final judgment. Based on what is known about the cost and design implications staff can meet with Procurement Services to consider the county's options. OCE is pressuring DOT to be under construction in 5 years, which will affect the ability to secure a price on materials. Commissioner Gold out at 10:02 a.m. Commissioner Zalak opined that it will be difficult to make a decision at 30% without a fixed dirt price. Ms. Straub advised that staff considers those variables and will be able to present

Page 758, Book Y

November 20, 2018

the Board a feel for those numbers based on what is believed to happen with a bridge price and material prices in the future. Mr. Minter clarified that the negotiation process is just that, a negotiation, and this is regarding a voluntary transaction, which is not an eminent domain acquisition. The possibility that there is another route has facilitated the county from not having to go through the eminent domain process at this point. As a result of these negotiations the numbers that are being discussed for the acquisition have dramatically trended in the county's favor. He stated the county is avoiding the litigation aspect, which can dramatically increase the costs. Mr. Minter stated regarding the issue of securing a price for materials the county can do that, but has to keep in mind any contractor who is a supplier of materials is going to hedge their bets and will tend to provide a higher price. All material suppliers realize that they have to protect their own pocketbook in these kinds of situations. He advised that for an eminent domain case the courts will require the county to consider 5 categories: 1) long range area planning; 2) environmental factors; 3) costs; 4) safety; and 5) availability of alternate routes. He advised that cost and long range planning are the balancing issues that the county is dealing with in this assessment. Mr. Minter stated it is prudent for the county to make an effort to lock in a price to ensure the Board knows the worst-case scenario. Commissioner Zalak requested staff bring back an option on dirt and an agreement with a company so that the county can move forward, as well as for the Ocala/Marion County Chamber & Economic Partners-up (CEP) to work with the Baldwins to donate land if the county creates a route through mat property. Commissioner Gold returned at 10:05 a.m. Mr. Bouyounes advised that when GOC comes back at 30% of the project the Board will have enough information on filler material, quantities needed, and layout, that they can go out to bid to secure a price and l1ake a decision at that time based on the best interest for the county. Commissioner Zalak opined that the Board should issue a Request for Proposals (RFP), which will give them a number and a hard bid can be issued after the Board decides which option to take. Mr. Minter questioned if Commissioner Zalak is expecting a material supplier to provide a guaranteed cost based on the request. In response to Commissioner Zalak, Ms. Straub advised that the project is roughly 5 years out and it is not likely DOT will move faster. She stated the Marion County side of the project will be done sooner than 5 years. Mr. Bouyounes advised that when staff has the information a hard bid can be done and brought back to the Board. Commissioner Zalak requested staff not bring it back to the Board until there is a hard bid. V1s. Straub clarified that the hard bid would be on the dirt and the Board will still need to pick the alternative. Ms. Straub advised that staff will work with Procurement Services and Legal to get more information. Mr. Bouyounes stated the item today is to choose between a bridge or an embankment, noting if the Board's wishes are to consider Alternative E then the agreement cannot be signed with the property owner to purchase the ROW. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Ms. Straub advised that the legal agreement is due back this afternoon and some fine tuning is required to the language on the Purchase Agreement. Negotiations are complete, the value of the property has been determined and staff is just working on agreeing to dates and legal terminology. She noted originally the

Book Y, Page 759

November 20, 2018

property owner requested roughly $20,000,000 and has been negotiated to $6,000,000, which staff believes is appropriate for the property. Mr. Bouyounes advised that the property owner agreed to $6,000,000. The county expanded the need for additional ROW, which the owner also agreed to. Ms. Straub advised that a wider ROW was requested because of the uncertainty with mine excavation and what will happen between fill and the bridge, noting the owners have agreed. Commissioner Bryant stated when the county originally started the process the price was considerably higher than what the Board was willing to discuss and getting down to the accurate price was a very important piece of this project moving forward. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Mr. Guerra stated the ROW acquisition cost for the alternative route would be approximately $5,500,000. Ms. Straub advised that it would also be double the length. Commissioner Bryant noted since it would be double the length it would be double the construction cost. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Mr. Guerra advised that as of August, 2018 the cost of Alternate E, which would be going around the mine, not through it, will cost approximately. $15,000,000 total, including an estimated ROW cost of $5,500,000. There are 2 options if the county goes through the mine; a bridge or no bridge, and both will cost roughly $9,500,000, which does not include ROW costs. If the ROW cost is added in the amount of $6,000,000 then the costs are about the same. He stated the costs are not estimated at worst case scenario, but are based on today's market and without the benefit of the studies that will be completed. Commissioner Bryant questioned when the property owner will quit mining. Ms. Straub advised that mining has already stopped. Mr. Guerra stated GDC intends to perform a detailed topography of the mine via aircraft because the mine is too irregular and is not feasible by hand. Also, a sophisticated machine will be used to map underwater, which is anywhere between 50 to 70 feet deep. He advised that the numbers will be precise by the time GDC comes back to the Board at 30% of the project. He noted they can tell how much dirt is needed, but cannot control the cost of the dirt. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Mr. Guerra stated once GDC receives the Notice to Proceed it will take approximately 2 to 3 months before the county can go out to bid. Ms. Straub advised that 30% gets the county to March and then GOC expects to have the final design completed by this time next year. Commissioner Zalak stated staff is bringing back an agreement next month for the Board to spend $6,000,000 on ROW. Ms. Straub concurred and advised that the commitment from the property owner is they will not mine if the agreement is completed in December; otherwise, mining will resume. Commissioner Zalak asked if the agreement is signed is the Board obligated to go that route. Ms. Straub advised that it is a Purchase Agreement. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Mr. Guerra advised that unless the property owner continues to mine once the mapping is complete they will know for certain how much dirt is needed. Commissioner Zalak expressed opposition to signing the contract prior to mapping completion. Mr. Guerra stated GDC does not have an agreement with the county for this project, but they have already ordered the mapping and aerial topography. The study should be ready

Page 760, Book Y

November 20, 2018

in 3 to 4 weeks, which means GDC could possibly have a number for the Board around the time the agreement is signed. Commissioner Gold out at 10:15 a.m. Mr. Guerra advised that instead of March, 2019 the information may be available in January, 2019. Ms. Straub stated the property owner is only giving the county until December 4, 2018, noting the owners have to make changes to their mine permit and if not approved by December 4, 2018 they are walking. In response to Chairman Stone, Mr. Bouyounes stated if the Board decides to go with Alternate E then DOT will have to run their study again and change from the alignment, which will add another 4 to 6 months to their schedule. Commissioner Zalak advised that he is not willing to allow any landowner to put him into a box where he could make a $5,000,000 mistake. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Mr. Guerra stated information from the study could be available sometime in January. A consultant will need to be hired to design the preliminary design for the bridqe, which is beyond their control and the county will have to work around the consultant's schedule. Commissioner Bryant acknowledged all the hard work staff has done for the project, but agreed with Commissioner Zalax. The property owner has continued to mine knowing the intended use of the property. She stated the more materials removed from the location the more it will cost for the county to build the road and the Board cannot blindly make a decision. Commissioner Gold returned at 10:18 a.m. Commissioner Zalak recommended the Board approve the contract with GDC and allow them to continue their work. Staff can continue to work both sides and if the mine property owner opts out on December 4,2018 the county can go the other route. Mr. Bouyounes clarified that GDC will begin the design, staff will speak with the property owners and advise that the Board is not willing to bring the contract forward until the county has the 30% plan, the amount of fill dirt is known, and the cost of that dirt. At the same time staff will begin evaluating Alternative E and speak with the Baldwins. Commissioner Gold out at 10:19 a.m. Commissioner Bryant stated staff will have to have a conversation with the property owner and make them understand the county cannot blindly go into an agreement. The Board has to have factual numbers in order to make a decision. She advised that if the property owner is willing to give the county one more month so the Board can make an educated decision then it will be fine to continue moving forward. Commissioner Gold returned at 10:20 a.m. Commissioner Zalak concurred, noting staff can have a contract ready for GDC on December 4, 2018 to consider the new alternative. Commissioner Bryant opined that the county needs to stay the course because it shows good faith on the county's part with the property owner and there should be enough information in January to know what is needed. Commissioner Zalak stated both courses need to be evaluated, going through the Clifton Mine and going around the mine. If the county can make a deal with the Baldwins for the ROW it could be a game changer. Commissioner Bryant commented on the impact changes to the route could have on DOT. Commissioner Zalak stated it may delay the project a little bit, but the county can still meet all of the deadlines, especially wth a ROW donation.

Book Y, Page 761

November 20, 2018

Ms. Straub advised that staff had some conversations with DOT, noting if the route is changed again the county will not gain from what DOT has already done. Commissioner Zalak questioned whether the county is hooking up with DOT at the same location. Mr. Bouyounes stated the alternate route changes DOT's analysis in regard to traffic and will require them to reevaluate all those numbers and what needs to be designed. Ms. Straub advised that when the county moved them to Alternate E the traffic analysis was concerning, and DOT was not comfortable with the findings. Mr. Bouyounes advised that the county cannot keep pressuring DOT to expedite the project if the route keeps shifting. Commissioner Bryant opined that if the Board continues in the direction they are going and asks the property 'owner for one more month to finalize numbers shows good faith that this is the direction of the county and allows them to make an educated decision. In response to Ms. Straub, Commissioner Bryant advised that if the property owner decides to walk then the Board knows what has to be done. Commissioner Zalak advised that if the property owner's concern is related to a tax issue then the Board could mitigate that issue. Ms. Straub advised that the property owner has to make modifications to their mine permit, which is overdue and in jeopardy with the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). Mr. Bouyounes stated staff will offer the discussion options with the property owner and if they are unable to wait then staff will move on to another alternative. A motion was made by Commissioner Zalak, seconded by Commissioner Moore, to approve Change Order No. 3 to POI 150719 to Guerra Development Corp, pursuant to RFQ NO. 06Q-098-PA-15. The motion was unanimously approved by the Board (5-0). Commissioner Bryant requested staff reach out to the property owner to discuss the Board's intent to move forward and come back before the Board at the start of the Zoning meeting, noting the BCC will consider mitigation of any of the property owners other issues.

7G6. Request Approval of Selection Committee Recommendation: 19Q-026, Additional Electrical and Instrumentation Engineering Services Firm - Verrando Engineering Co., Inc. (Ocala) and McKim & Creed, Inc. (Clearwater) (Budget Impact - None) The Board accepted the following recommendation as presented by Procurement Director Olsen:

Description/Background: At its January 12, 2016 meeting, the Board approved a contract with Bailey Engineering Consultants, Inc. in response to Marion County Utilities' (MCU) need for a firm with specific knowledge in electrical and instrumentation (E&I) engineering. E&I services are used with relation to design, assessment, maintenance, and construction of power systems, devices, and networks which provide for MCU's industrial process control and site security. Since award, Bailey has been issued task orders totaling $134,579; Procurement recommended advertising a Request for Qualification (RFQ) to add other firms to enhance E&I consultant support. Only Verrando and McKim & Creed submitted qualification packages, and were short-listed for discussion questions in accordance with FS §287.055 (CCNA). The Selection Committee deemed both firms qualified to work task orders under the RFQ's scope. Both Verrando and McKim & Creed were presented Bailey's 16Q-019 contract for consideration; with the exception of recent legal modifications, the contracts for all three (3) firms will be identical, which simplifies task order assignment. Acting Utilities Director, Bob Titterington supports the Selection Committee's recommendation. Attached for review.is Verrando's draft

7G8. Request Approval to Reject all Submittals: 18B-043 Quad Box Hangar Construction (Budget Impact - None) The Board accepted the following recommendation as presented by Procurement Director Olsen:

Description/Background: On behalf of Parks & Recreation (P&R), Procurement advertised a bid for the construction of a 257LF x 60LF, four (4) unit corporate hanger building for Design Group II Aircraft at the Marion County Airport. The project was to be funded thro.iqh a Joint Participation Agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT). Four (4) submittals were received and all were significantly over the estimated budget of $880,910. At the request of P&R, Ethridge Construction of Marion County (the lowest, responsive bidder) began value engineering parts of the project in an effort to bring the cost down closer to the estimated budget. Unfortunately, the steel tariffs began, further impacting the project and driving the costs higher and discussions between P&R & FOOT for additional funding to cover the increasing prices were unsuccessful.

7G9. Request Approval to Rescind Bid Award: 19B-019, Silver Springs Shores Unit 19 Stormwater Retrofit Project CP76 - Hartman Civil Construction Co., Inc., Ocala, FL (Budget Impact - None) The Board considered the following recommendation as presented by Procurement Director Olsen:

Description/Background: At the November 6, 2018 meeting, the Board approved a contract with Hartman Civil Construction Co., Inc. to retrofit three (3) DRAs in Silver Springs Shores Unit 19 with Bold & Gold® CTS Filtration Media. During a November 5th meeting, a dispute arose regarding a pay item. It was thought to have been resolved and clarified during that meeting, but was brought up again at a November 7th on-site meeting. The issue cannot be resolved between Office of the County Engineer (OCE) staff and the Contractor.

2nd OCE requests the low bid for the construction project be rejected as its construction costs were nearly double, far exceeding the $660,000 budget. Rescinding this award also reverses the Board's approval of an accompanying purchase order approved at the November 6th meeting to ECS for the direct purchase of the media at a cost of $751 ,647.05 Budget/Impact: None. Recommended Action: Motion to approve recommendation to rescind award to Hartman Civil Construction, Co., Inc., reject the bid from Art Walker Construction, Inc., cancel purchase order 190282 to ECS, and allow OCE staff to rework the bid scope, and Procurement to re-advertise when presented.

Mr. Bouyounes advised that this Item was withdrawn by staff. Ms. Straub stated staff addressed Mr. Hartman's concerns and the contract was able to move forward. Commissioner Moore out at 10:25 a.m. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Ms. Straub advised that the Board agreed to a direct buy of Bold & Gold material. The county is direct buying the Bold & Gold and for the past year the county has provided an alternate regarding hauling. Some companies are able to haul the material themselves others are not and the county provides the hauler. The county has agreed to provide the hauling for Mr. Hartman. She commented on previous issues with Bold & Gold and advised that no issues of that magnitude have shown up on any other project. Those who used Bold & Gold had a need to work through some of the material issues, but everyone overcame and resolved the issues amongst themselves. Staff did change specifications to give the contractor better guidance regarding compaction and spoke with the contractors to determine what equipment works and does not work, as well as what materials not to be placed in the bottom of the pond. She stated there is a loss with the material due to movement of the product and the way it is dropped off at the job site and transported back to Drainage Retention Areas (DRAs). Commissioner Moore returned at 10:27 a.m. Ms. Straub advised that there is some waste, but the county's private supplier has worked that out with the contractors.

Commissioner Bryant commented on the cost of the material and questioned if there is an alternative product that could be used by the county. Ms. Straub advised that staff has continued to pressure this particular vendor for local resources. The mixture of the product is tire crumbs, clay and sand. She stated there are specifications regarding each of the products, the tire crumb has to come from a particular location because an arrangement has been made through the patent, noting there are consistencies about the sand and clay that the vendor has to produce. Some changes have been made by working through some of the issues experienced by one of the local contractors. Staff has continued to ask questions and retest the material. Changes were made to the sand that is brought in as part of the product, which makes more local sand available. Ms. Straub advised that the vendor has been told that if they continue to do business they need to get more plant availability and recourses, noting Marion County is not the only one asking for this. The vendor has not come up with a quality product that has the same treatment quality that the Bold & Gold is producing. Staff is seeing water quality improvement, reducing nitrogen amounts by more than 70% on a regular basis. There is not another product that is hitting that high with the same 50 year life. Another product in conversations is wood chips, but they do not have the life or good specifications identified. In response to Commissioner Bryant, Ms. Straub advised that approximately 50% of funding for these projects comes from grants, noting this particular project grant funding is roughly $330,000. Staff was able to lower the cost by hauling the Bold & Gold material, but the county may have to make up some of the funding. She stated Bold & Gold is sold by the ton, but is unsure of the unit cost at this time. Commissioner Bryant opined that the provider is charging the county an outrageous amount of money for this project and are taking advantage of the system. General discussion ensued. Ms. Straub advised that the county is mandated by the Water Management District (WMD) to meet a certain percentage reduction and are on a 5 year cycle with the Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP). Staff has informed the WMD that based off the concerns with the Bold & Gold other options are needed. She stated the WMD has not mandated which projects need to be completed, but have advised that the county is part of BMAP and will need to meet this percentage reduction. Staff has questioned what will happen if the reduction is not met. Chairman Stone questioned whether the wood chips are being tested. Ms. Straub advised that there has been success in septic systems and water retention areas, but there were also mixed results. Staffs concern with the wood chips is there is not a true product, it is not clear what is wanted out of the wood chips being tested, and they disintegrate requiring the pond to be rebuilt in less than 20 years. Mr. Bouyounes advised that staff initiated conversations with the University of Florida (UF) to determine if they are willing to perform some testing and develop a different product. During every discussion UF refers staff to the University of Central Florida (UCF) study and the product they created. He stated this does not mean no one will come forward and be willing to go through the expenses, noting UCF went through 5 to 7 years of testing before they perfected this material. The county needs somebody who is willing to do the work and work with another university or research entity to develop a different material. Ms. Straub stated now that the new septic systems rules are in place it will force some of these conversations to start happening.
