[1. Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) presentation. At the April 6 Board of County Commissioners meeting, the Board received a request from Attorney Erin Deady to initiate a commercial PACE program in St. Johns County. The Board requested additional information on the PACE program. Ms. Deady has prepared a presentation with information on the commercial PACE program, including background on the applicable law, steps to implement the program, and examples of PACE projects from around the state. If the Board were to direct staff to take steps to implement the program, staff would bring back a resolution and interlocal agreements for consideration at a future Board meeting.]

WHITEHURST SEEING NONE PLEASE VOTE.

PASSES 5-0. FIRST AGENDA ITEM.

GOOD MORNING. >> GOOD MORNING, COMMISSIONERS, SENIOR ASSISTANT COUNTY ATTORNEY.

AGENDA ITEM 1 PRESENTATION BY ATTORNEY AARON DEEDY.

ALSO KNOWN AS THE PACE PROGRAM. AT YOUR APRIL 6TH IMMEDIATING ERIN DEADY SPOKE DURING PUBLIC COMMENT AND REQUESTED THAT THE COUNTY A COMMERCIAL PACE PROGRAM.

AT THAT TIME THE BOARD REQUESTED MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAM. MISS DEED ERIN DEADY IS HERE TO PROVIDE A PRESENTATION WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

>> IS THERE A CLICKER? >> GOOD MORNING.

MY NAME IS ERIN DEADY. I AM AN ATTORNEY WITH PET ROWS PACE FINANCE. WHAT OUR REQUEST IS OF YOU.

COMMERCIAL PACE HAS BEEN PRETTY ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES TWO BILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF FINANCING FOR BUILDING NEW CONSTRUCTION AND RETROFITS. BREAKS DOWN TO A LOT OF DIFFERENT PROJECTS. MOST PROJECTS HAVE BEEN IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY. FLORIDA'S PACE LAW PASSED 2010.

IT WAS UNANIMOUS OUT OF OUR FLORIDA LEGISLATURE WHICH WAS VERY RARE. THIS IS A VOLUNTARY PROGRAM.

[00:50:03]

PROPERTY OWNERS ARE NOT GOING TO UNDERTAKE FINANCING IF THEY CAN FIND CHEAPER FINANCING IN SOME PLACE ELSE.

WHAT CAN BE FUNDED UNDER COMMERCIAL PACE.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES, WATER CONSERVATION CAN BE MEASURED. CAPTURING CONDENSATION.

ROOFS, WINDOWS, THOSE TYPES OF THINGS TO FORTIFY A HOME FROM STORM DAMAGE. REPAYMENT ATTACHED TO PROPERTY TAX BILL IT IS A LIEN AND REPAID OVER THE FINANCING.

IT CAN'T EXCEED THE USEFUL LIFE OF THE PROJECT.

WE DON'T FINANCE A SIMPLE AIR CONDITIONER FOR OVER 25 YEARS.

WE USE UNIFORM METHOD OF COLLECTION THROUGH AGREEMENT WITH TAX COLLECTOR. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH MR. HOLINGS WORTH AND THIS IS ONLY A COMMERCIAL NOT RESIDENTIAL ONE.

MULTIJURISDICTIONAL PACE PROGRAMS FORMED THROUGHOUT FLORIDA. ST. JOHNS COUNTY WOULD JOIN THROUGH INNER LOCAL AGREEMENT. THAT WOULD BE THE MECHANISM TO LAUNCH PACE. PROJECTS THAT MAYBE LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING OR CHEAPER CAPITOL.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL PUSH INTO REALM OF FEASIBILITY.

THERE IS INSURANCE BENEFITS. MAKING BUILDING STOCK MORE EFFICIENT. AGAIN COMMERCIAL PROPERTY OWNERS THEY ARE GOING TO USE THE PROGRAM OR THEY ARE NOT.

WE DO HAVE DEALS THAT ARE READY TO GO WITHIN ST. JOHNS COUNTY AND REQUESTS. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS GOING TO SAVE THE BUILDING OWNER MONEY ON OPERATIONS OF ENERGY OR MECHANICAL SYSTEMS. STEP ONE WOULD BE THAT THE COUNTY WOULD AUTHORIZE PROGRAM THROUGH RESOLUTION, EXECUTE AGREEMENTS WITH FOUR LOCAL ENTITIES.

TAXABLE AGREEMENTS WOULD BE UNDERTAKEN WITH MR. HOLINGS WORTH. THEY CONNECT WITH THE PACE PROGRAM. NEGOTIATE FINANCING TERMS STEP TWO. EXECUTE FINANCING AGREEMENT.

STEP THREE UNDERTAKE THE PROJECT.

RECEIVE ALL THE PERMITS. THEY HAVE TO RECEIVE THEIR PERMITS AND CONSTRUCTION APPROVALS AND THAT TYPE OF THING. WORK COMPLETED ON THE PROJECT AND PACE PAYS CONTRACTOR. THAT MONEY DOES NOT MOVE THROUGH THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT. STEP FOUR IS PACE PROGRAM PREPARES ASSESSMENT ROLE FOR THE PROPERTY OWNERS THAT DECIDED TO PARTICIPATE. ONLY THOSE PROPERTY OWNERS.

I AM GOING TO RUN THROUGH A COUPLE OF QUICK EXAMPLES.

THIS IS THE PROJECT FACILITATING WHY I WAS HERE.

THEY WANTED TO KEEP INFORMATION CONFIDENTIAL.

IT IS FOUR TO FIVE MILLION DOLLARS OUT OF 25 MILLION DOLLAR CONSTRUCTION BUDGET. THEY WANT TO USE C PACE FINANCING. ANOTHER ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY OUTSIDE PENSACOLA. HILTON IN OCALA.

ROOF RETROFITS IN CORAL GABLES. I WANT TO SPEND A MINUTE ON THIS ONE, THIS ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY UNDER NEW CONSTRUCTION AND RECAPITALIZED USING C PACE TO INSURE FINANCING.

WINDING UP THIS IS MY SECOND TO LAST SLIDE.

AGAIN FOUR PACE PROGRAMS WITHIN FLORIDA.

YOU WOULD JOIN THROUGH THE INNER LOCAL AGREEMENT AND THERE HAVE BEEN 22 INQUIRIES WITHIN ST. JOHNS COUNTY.

ONE IS TRACKING PHONE CALLS. WE DON'T HAVE THE DISTINCTION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THAT IS RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL.

IT IS THE INDICATION THERE ARE PROPERTY OWNERS.

I KNOW OF TWO PACE PROVIDERS THAT HAVE PROJECTS READY TO GO.

OURS IS ONE OF THEM. WE DON'T PREDICT A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF PROJECTS EACH YEAR. IT IS NOT THE VOLUME THAT YOU WOULD HAVE WITH RESIDENTIAL. IT IS A DIFFERENT MODEL.

SUPER OPTIMISTICALLY 10-20 ESTIMATED A YEAR.

THAT WOULD BE GREAT. WE WOULD BE THRILLED WITH THAT.

NOT ALL OURS. AT THE ENDS OF THE DAY, COMMERCIAL ONLY PROGRAMS DON'T HAVE THE SAME CONSUMER

[00:55:04]

PROTECTIONS. THESE DEALS TAKE A LONG TIME TO GIN UP. PEOPLE ARE SOPHISTICATED AND LOOKING FOR CHEAPER COST OF FINANCING.

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO UNDERTAKE PACE IF IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE AND PENCIL OUT. COMMERCIAL PACE PROJECTS TAKE LONGER TO GET CLOSED YOU HAVE MORE SCRUTINY IN TERMS OF CAPITAL STACK. COMMERCIAL PACE PROJECTS ALSO REQUIRE ANY EXISTING MORTGAGE LENDER THEY HAVE TO CONCEPT TO THAT. THAT IS DIFFERENT MODEL.

LEGISLATIVE OUTCOMES I PUT THAT ON THERE.

EASILY, A BIG ZERO ON PACE THIS SESSION.

THERE WAS A BILL FLOATED TO DEAL WITH RESIDENTIAL CONSUMER PROTECTIONS. DIDN'T HAVE EFFECT ON COMMERCIAL. IT DIED IN THE WINNING DAYS OF THE SESSION. THAT IS MY PRESENTATION.

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> OKAY T. THANK YOU.

QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD? COMMISSIONER SMITH?

>> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. HOW ARE THE LOANS APPROVED WHO

IS INVOLVED IN THAT PROCESS? >> A LOT OF LAWYERS, A LOT OF CAPITAL PROVIDERS. GOVERNMENT HAS NO ROLE IN APPROVING THE PROJECTS. IT IS A PRIVATE SECTOR TRANSACTION BETWEEN A BUILDING OWNER AND FINANCING ENTITY.

IT WOULD GO THROUGH A NORMAL PROCESS TAX DEED SALE.

THERE IS NOTHING DIFFERENT OR UNIQUE ABOUT PACE.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNERS SHOULD THE PROPERTIES SALE.

>> THIS IS A PRIVATE TRANSACTION.

>> WHY IS PACE A PRIVATE ENTITY WANT A COUNTY TO HELP THEM WITH LIENS FROM THE GET GO DOES IT LOWER THEIR RATE?

>> YES. >> IF I CAME TODAY WHAT WOULD

THE RATE BE? >> DEPENDING ON FINANCING TERM

AS LOW AS 5% AND HIGH AS 8%. >> COMMERCIAL LOANS AROUND 3.

>> THAT'S RIGHT YOU ALSO HAVE A DEBT WITH PACE FINANCING.

>> THIS IS STILL A DEBT AND LIEN.

>> CORRECT. THEY MAY NOT WANT TO CARRY THAT MUCH DEBT ON THE BOOKS FOR COMMERCIAL PROJECT.

PACE MAY BENEFIT THEM BECAUSE THEY TAKE OUT A LESSER BANK LOAN. TOTALLY UP TO THE PROPERTY OWNERS TO WHETHER OR NOT THEY WANT TO USE THEM.

>> BACK TO COMMISSIONER SMITH. >> EVERYTHING I READ HIGHER INTEREST RATE. I ASKED THE QUESTION HOW THESE LOANS ARE APPROVED. GO TO A LOWER INTEREST RATE.

ADDITIONAL EXPENSES NOT AS DESIRABLE AS SOMEBODY SEEK AGO LOAN. IS IT TRUE? FROM WHAT I READ GENERALLY A HIGHER INTEREST RATE.

>> IT DEPENDS. WE OPEN UP THE PAPER.

WE LOOK AT INTEREST RATES, WE THINK THAT IS A CONSTRUCTION LOAN INTEREST RATE IS. THAT IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE.

DEALING WITH, BIGGER TERMS, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO END UP WITH TWO OR THREE PERCENT YOU ARE READING IN THE

[01:00:03]

NEWSPAPER RIGHT NOW. IT IS MORE COMPATIBLE.

>> THAT IS A STATUTORY REQUIREMENT THEY CAN CHARGE UP TO 2% IN THE COLLECTION OF AN ASSESSMENT.

THEY CAN CLARJ FOR THEIR SERVICES TO LEVY AND COLLECT ASSESSMENTS, PACE IS NO DIFFERENT.

>> COMMISSIONER WALDRON? >> WHEN THEY DO THE LOAN THERE WON'T BE A LIEN OWNER DEBT JUST THROUGH ACCOUNTING.

WHEN THEY RUN A CREDIT SCORE IT WILL NOT SHOW UP?

>> CORRECT, SIR. >> CORRECT.

>> ANYTHING FURTHER FROM THE BOARD? DIRECTION OF THE BOARD REQUESTED?

>> PUBLIC COMMENT? >> NOW HAVE PUBLIC COMMENT ON

ITEM ONE. >> NO FURTHER COMMENTS.

>> LET'S GO TO LEGAL. >> THANK YOU.

IF I MAY THROUGH THE CHAIR I THINK YOUR POWERPOINT MATERIALS WITHIN THE AGENDA I THINK THEY MAKE IT CLEAR IT IS NOT PURELY A PRIVATE PROGRAM. THERE ARE PUBLIC ENTITIES SPECIAL DISTRICTS THE COUNTY WILL DO INTERLOCALS WITH.

IT IS FINANCED THROUGH THOSE. >> CORRECT.

PRIVATE CAPITAL. ALL THE PACE PROGRAMS HAVE UPWARDS 100 LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. ST. JOHNS COUNTY WILL BECOME

ANOTHER GOVERNMENT. >> RIGHT.

IF I MAY ONE MORE TIME THROUGH THE CHAIR IN YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH PACE COMMERCIAL PACE ANY INSTANCE OR COULD THERE BE ANY INSTANCE WHERE THE HOSTING LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND I MEAN IN THIS INSTANCE ST. JOHNS COUNTY COULD EVER BE LIEABLE FOR THE DEBT THAT ESSENTIALLY WAS INCURRED THROUGH A PACE?

>> NO, SIR. THAT IS VERY CLEAR.

ALL OF THE PROGRAMS HAVE UNDERTAKEN BOND VALIDATIONS.

THAT IS VERY CLEAR. I THINK IT IS SECTION 163.01 PARAGRAPH 7 THAT SAYS WHEN YOU HAVE INTERLOCAL ENTITY, DEBTS AND OBLIGATIONS DO NOT IMPORT TO THE PARTICIPATING LOCAL

GOVERNMENTS. >> THANK YOU MR. CHIRMAN.

>> OKAY. THANK YOU COMMISSIONER DEAN.

>> I HAVE TWO COMMENTS. ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO APPROACHED BY A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PACE PROGRAM.

I LOOKED AT THAT. I REACHED OUT TO OUR TAX COLLECTOR DENNIS HOLINGS WORTH. HE FELT THERE WERE SIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS WITH THAT PROGRAM AND RECOMMEND WE NOT PURSUE THAT.

WHEN I WAS APPROACHED REGARDING COMMERCIAL PACE, I REACHED OUT TO EARLIER TO DENNIS HOLINGS WORTH THE TAX COLLECTOR.

HE SAID BECAUSE THIS PROVIDED ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR OUR COUNTY HE DID NOT WANT TO STAND IN THE WAY TO PREVENT THAT AND DIDN'T WANT TO -- BASED ON THAT I WANT TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING MOTION, I WILL DIRECT STAFF TO TAKE STEPS TO IMPLEMENT THE PROGRAM AND STAFF CAN BRING BACK RESOLUTION FOR CONSIDERATION AT

A FUTURE BOARD MEETING. >> SECOND.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER DEAN, SECOND BY

[01:05:04]

COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST. PUBLIC COMMENT, ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONER SMITH.

>> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. IN MY OPINION THIS IS FUNDAMENTALLY A PRIVATE MATTER. THERE ARE A LOT OF THE OF TOOLS FOR COMMISSIONERS TO UTILIZE AND APPEARS TO BE PUBLIC BENEFIT AND POTENTIAL CREATION OF JOBS. HOWEVER, I HAVE A RESERVATION ABOUT THE BENEFIT THAT DOESN'T OUTWEIGH THE CONSEQUENCES, I

WILL VOTE AGAINST IT. >> THANK YOU, ANY FURTHER COMMENT FROM THE BOARD? SEEING NONE, PLEASE VOTE.

>> IF I MAY MAKE A RECOMMENDATION, WE ARE GETTING TO THE MEAT AND SUBSTANCE OF DISAGREEMENT.

THIS IS NOT PART OF OUR NEGOTIATIONS.

ANY OTHER DIRECTION FROM THE BOARD, WE CAN TAKE A QUICK RECESS SO WE CAN NEGOTIATE TO ESSENCE OF THE DIRECTION FROM THE BOARD AND BRING IT BACK SHORTLY AFTER.

>> OKAY BEFORE WE DO THAT. LET'S GO TO OTHER COMMISSIONERS.

COMMISSIONER SMITH? >> I HAD A QUESTION.

IS THAT A PRESENTATION OR QUESTIONS?

>> GOOD MORNING MR. CHAIRMAN, FOR THE RECORD ELLEN AVERY SMITH HERE IN ST. AUGUSTINE HERE ON BEHALF OF THE PGA TOUR.

I THINK MISS ANDREWS DID A GREAT JOB OF SUMMARIZING THE AGREEMENT AND I AM HERE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AND REPRESENTATIVES OF

THE TOUR HERE AS WELL. >> THANK YOU, MRS. SMITH.

NO. 1, I APPRECIATE WHERE WE ARE TODAY.

I WANT THE PUBLIC TO KNOW APRIL 6TH, I FELT MAYBE THE ONLY ONE, I FELT THIS WAS AN INCOMPLETE APPLICATION PREMATURELY BROUGHT BEFORE THE BOARD. WE DID NOT HAVE JOB'S NUMBERS.

WE DID NOT HAVE THE MARKETING AND PROMOTION CONTENT ASSISTANCE AT THAT TIME. PLUS WE HAD COMBINATION OF TWO DIFFERENT FACILITIES TOGETHER. I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR ADHERING TO THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT AND MAKING THIS A SEPARATE ONE. I WOULD LIKE IF YOU DON'T MIND FROM A VERBAL STANDPOINT. WHAT I HAVE DONE IS TAKEN THREE DIFFERENT RESOLUTIONS. ONE FROM PGA TOUR.

THIS ONE PRESENT. ONE FROM NORTH DRUMMOND.

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE OBSERVATIONS.

HELPFUL FOR ME AND WANT OTHERS. I WANT MISS ANDREWS.

IF I AM INACCURATE ON ANY OF THIS, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME, CORRECT ME. I DON'T WANT TO BE INACCURATE.

I WANT FOLKS TO KNOW THE MIDDLE IS WHERE WE ARE TODAY.

TO THE LEFT IS PGA TOUR ECONOMIC INCENTIVE DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE DONE IN 2017 FOR GLOBAL HOME TO THE FAR RIGHT IS NORTH OF DUMB MONDAY'S AGREEMENT FROM 2013 MODIFIED BECAUSE OF LACK OF COMPLIANCE IN 2018. I WANTED TO WORK OUR WAY DOWN ON

[01:15:03]

THE LEFT ALL NEW FACILITIES BUILT.

PGA TOUR 2017, 339, ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT NORTH OF DRUMMOND ABOVE 130 MILLION DOLLARS. THERE IS A MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENT FOR MAINTENANCE TO RETAIN JOBS.

THIRD LINE TO CREATE NEW JOBS. PGA TOUR CREATE 307 NEW JOBS.

THIS WAS TO CREATE 45 NEW JOBS. NORTH OF DRUMMOND 400 NEW EMPLOYEES. THAT IS NEW HIRES.

WAGES ARE CERTAINLY SOMETHING POWERFUL TO LOOK AT AS WELL.

79,442 WAS THERE. THIS AGREEMENT SAME.

NORTH OF DRUMMOND 44,943. JUST WANT YOU TO RECOGNIZE, TOO, REDUCTION OR LESS PRESENTATION OF NEW JOBS TO BE BROUGHT FORWARD. NEXT LINE ONE THAT IS MOST OUTSTANDING TO ME. GENERAL 25 YEARS OF TAXES ON REAL PROPERTY IMPROVEMENTS. THAT IS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME. NOTICE THERE IS NO TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY THERE. I HOPE THAT IS ACCURATE.

MOVING ALONG THE NEXT SLIDE. THE BOTTOM TO ME IS WHERE THE SIGNIFICANT OUTSTANDING LIAR IS. REACHING EXTENSIVE INCREASE IN REGARD TO THE OBLIGATION AND ALSO INVALUE AND WHAT YOU ARE GETTING WHEN YOU GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT, CREATION OF JOBS IS DEFINITELY LESS THAN THE OTHERS AS WELL.

TANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. >> MR. CHAIRMAN DO YOU MIND IF I RESPOND WITH A COUPLE OF QUICK FACTS? DO YOU MIND IF I BORROW THIS PIECE OF PAPER.

IF YOU PUT THAT BACK UP THERE ALSO THE VALUE OF THE MARKETING AND PROMOTION CONTENT ASSISTANCE.

I PUT IN THERE SECTION 15 COMMISSIONER WALDRON ALREADY ADDRESSED. THERE IS A MONETARY VALUE NOT CLEARLY DEFINED. REDUCE SOME OF THE ESTIMATED

VALUE. >> CORRECT, WE APPRECIATE YOUR THOROUGHNESS AS USUAL. I WANT A COUPLE OF QUICK NOTES TO GIVE A PERSPECTIVE. WE ARE TALK ABOUT A CORPORATE

[01:20:02]

CITIZEN OF ST. JOHNS COUNTY WHO HAS BEEN A FAITHFUL PARTNER TO THE COUNTY MORE THAN 40 YEARS. BRINGING LOTTEDS OF HIGH PAYING JOBS AND IN LOOKING AT YOUR LIST THEIR JOBS ARE ALMOST TWICE THE VALUE OR WAGE I WOULD SAY OF NORTH OF DRUMMOND.

YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT INTERNATIONAL TOUR, SEVEN DIFFERENT TOURS. BEING PRODUCED AND TRANSMITTED FROM ST. JOHNS COUNTY. THIS IS AGAIN A GREAT ASSET TO ST. JOHNS COUNTY. DIFFERENT STATES AND CITIES THROUGHOUT THE NATION VYING FOR DIGITAL MEDIA ESPECIALLY 100 MILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT. I WOULD ASK YOU TO CONSIDER TALKING ABOUT RETAINING HIGH PAYING JOBS,100 MILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT. CREATION OF 145 MILLION JOBS.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT DISCLOSED.

SCHOOL IMPACT FEES PAID INTO THE COUNTY.

OVERALL ECONOMIC IMPACT WE CAN EXPECT IF WE APPROVE THIS PACKAGE TODAY. WHAT WE HAVE BEEN TOLD WILL BE THE OVERALL ECONOMIC IMPACT ON THE COUNTY.

SCHOOL OVER ALL OF THE YEARS WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT FOR THE TAX REBATE. I THINK THAT IS GOOD INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC TO HAVE AND APPRECIATE THE COMMENT.

I DON'T THINK YOU CAN TAKE FOR GRANTED PGA TOUR HAS HAD A HOME 30 YEARS THEY WILL BUILD SOMETHING AS BIG AS PROPOSED HERE. THAT IS ALSO FACTORED IN THE THOUGHT PROCESS. THAT IS ALL I HAVE FOR NOW MR.

CHAIRMAN. >> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER W.

WE ARE GOING TO COMMISSIONER WALDRON.

[01:25:48]

>> THAT IS THE IDENTICAL SLIDE. THAT IS WHAT COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST REFERRING TO, 304 MILLION DOLLARS DIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT HOME TO 300 PLUS JOBS, 724 CONSTRUCTION JOBS.

16.7 MILLION DOLLARS IN SCHOOL TAXES OVER 30 YEARS.

OBVIOUSLY THE CREATION OF NEW TECH AND CONTENT AND INDUSTRY-RELATED JOBS. NATIONAL BROADCAST EXPOSURE FOR ST. JOHN'S COUNTY. 3375 TOTAL JOBS FOR PGA TOUR.

2028 CONSTRUCTION JOBS, 7.2 BILLION DOLLARS IN EMPLOYEE PAYROLL OVER THE NEXT 20 YEARS, 44.7 MILLION DOLLARS IN SCHOOL TAXES OVER 30 YEARS. 200 MILLION DOLLARS IN TWO NEW WORLD CLASS BUILDINGS. OBVIOUSLY THE GLOBAL HOME AND NOW DIGITAL MEDIA. 500 MILLION DOLLARS PLUS IN PROPERTY VALUE IN ST. JOHNS COUNTY.

70 MILLION DOLLARS IN LOCAL TAXES OVER THE NEXT 20 YEARS PAID BY THE TOUR. AND 33 BILLION DOLLARS IN LOCAL ECONOMIC OUTPUT FOR ST. JOHNS COUNTY OVER 30 YEARS.

>> WE ARE HAVING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WE ARE GOING TO REBOOT. MISS ANDREWS REQUESTED A BRIEF

BREAK. >> MY QUESTION FOR MISS ANDREWS.

WE KNOW NUMBERS ON THE TOP PART OF THE SLIDE THAT IS FOR THE BROADCAST BUILDING ONLY. NUMBERS ON THE BOTTOM PART OF THE SLIDE COMBINED NUMBERS SHOULD THIS BE APPROVED?

>> PGA TOUR. >> THE JOBS ON THE TOP PART OF THE SLIDE 180 JOBS NOW. IS THAT RIGHT IT IS NOT NOW 300.

IT IS 180? >> YES.

I WANT TO ADDRESS CONCERNS. >> MR. MAYS INTRODUCE YOURSELF.

>> PHIL MAYS. 309 EAST PACE ROAD ATLANTA, GEORGIA. ON THIS SLIDE CORRECT TOP PORTION FOR PGA TOUR DIGITAL MEDIA BROADCAST FACILITY.

THIS IS BASED OFF ERKG. BOTTOM IN -- THE FEELING IS OVER A NUMBERER OF YEARS, EVENTUALLY 300 PEOPLE WOULD OCCUPY AND IN AND OUT OF THE BROADCAST BUILDING? OVER TIME THAT IS THE BELIEF WE WERE TALKING ABOUT NOW.

[01:30:08]

BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WAGES AND OFFERING TO PROVIDE DIGITAL MEDIA INDUSTRY AND BUILDING VERSES NORTH OF DRUMMOND NUMBERS. SPIN-OFF JOBS ARE ALSO.

INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE. BENEFIT OF ECONOMIC ANALYSIS LOCATING THIS TYPE OF INDUSTRY IS TREMENDOUS AND WHY COMMUNITIES GO AFTER THIS TYPE OF INDUSTRY.

YOU REFERENCED PALM BEACH TO FRISCO, TEXAS.

WE WERE A BIDDER ON DEVELOPING THAT FACILITY OUTSIDE OF DALLAS.

NUMBERS WERE CONSIDERABLE. ACCORD USGA MOVING LOCATION FROM NEW JERSEY INTO NORTH CAROLINA AGAIN WITH A VERY FORMIDABLE PACKAGE INCENTIVES. IT IS NOT A SITUATION ON THIS BUILDING NO TAXES BEING PAID. ALMOST 50% OF TAXES PAID ON THIS BUILDING ALONE. ALL THE SCHOOL TAXES, COUNTY HEALTH. THIS IS A PORTION OF THAT THAT WOULD BE USED TO HELP PAY FOR THE BUILDING OVER A NUMBER OF

YEARS. >> WE HAVE ASKED OUR FINANCIAL ADDS ADVISE TO DO A COURTESY FACT CHECK.

WE DO NOT STAND BY THE NUMBERS HOWEVER WE HAVE DONE ALL THE NUMBERS PROVIDED ON THE BOARD. IT IS FACTUAL.

WE HAVE RUN THE TAX VALUE PROPOSED BRING TO ST. JOHN'S COUNTY OVER 25 YEARS AND I CAN PROVIDE THAT NUMBER QUICKLY.

THIS IS OUR OWN ANALYSIS. OVER 25 YEARS SCHOOL TAXES VALUED 14 CLOSE TO 15 MILLION DOLLARS OVER 35 YEARS SCHOOL TAXES VALUE 21 MILLION DOLLARS. BENEFITS GENERATED FROM THE TAXES. IF WE ARE LOOKING OVER 35 YEARS, THERE IS A POSITIVE NET BENEFIT TO ST. JOHNS COUNTY.

>> THANK YOU MISS ANDREWS. TO REALLY VALIDAE THE NUMBER OF JOBS. THAT IS THE PERFORMANCE THAT IS EXPECTED THROUGH THIS GRANT AGREEMENT.

THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER DEAN NEXT.

I WANT TO REFLECT ON SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO ME.

I ALSO WANT TO KEEP IN MIND THE LONG STANDING RELATIONSHIP, PARTNERSHIP HARD TO PUT A DOLLAR FIGURE ON AND I WILL TELL YOU WHY IN A MINUTE COUNTY AND PGA TOUR.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL OF YOU WERE DOING 30 YEARS AGO TODAY, MAYBE THIS MONTH, I WAS ON A PLANE.

I WAS ON A PLANE WITH ON THE WAY TO NEW YORK FROM ST. AUGUSTINE WITH THE MAYOR OF JACKSONVILLE, A BOARD MEMBER FROM ST. JOHN'S

[01:35:08]

RIVER WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT AND COMMISSIONERS OF PGA.

FLYING TO NEW YOK TO MEET WITH THE LANDOWNER THAT WAS GOING TO OFFER THE LOCATION FOR THE WORLD GOLF HALL OF FAME.

GOOD DISCUSSION, GOOD AGREEMENT FROM THE LAND ACQUISITION.

THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE'S POSITION YES, WE WANT THE HALL OF FAME HEAD WATERS PENINSULA. WE ARE ONLY GOING FORWARD WITH APPROVALS IF THE PGA AGREES TO MOVE ITS HEADQUARTERS TO THAT LOCATION. COURAGEOUS CORRECT DECISION.

TO KEEP PGA HEADQUARTERS. HE STUCK BY THAT AND FUTURE COMMISSIONERS STUCK BY THAT. WE HAVE HAD AN UNBELIEVABLY SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIP AS A COUNTY WITH THE PGA TOUR.

THERE ARE INCALL CUEABLE BENEFITS THE CITIZENS HAVE RECEIVED BASED TON LOCATION AND PLAYER'S CHAMPIONSHIP IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE BENEFITS AS FAR AS TO PUT A NUMBER ON THOSE BENEFITS, SO IN CONSIDERING THIS ITEM, I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW, I DIDN'T REACH THIS DECISION IN A CAVALIER MANNER IN A GENERALIST MANNER. WHAT I HAVE LOOKED AT IS THE BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP PGA TOUR HAD HAD WITH THIS COUNTY AND THE RESIDENTS OF THIS COUNTY DERIVED NOT ONLY IN BUSINESS BENEFITS FOR ALL THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED AND ALL THE BENEFITS WE GET FROM THE NATIONAL PRESS, INTERNATIONAL PRESS AND PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP BUT THE DONATIONS PGA TOUR MAKES MULTIMILLION DOLLAR DONATIONS OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS THIS BENEFITS FROM.

WHEN I DID STUDY IT. I DIDN'T ARRIVE AT MY CONCLUSION BASED EXCLUSIVELY ON THE SPECIFIC NUMBERS.

I FELT COMPELLED TO SHARE THAT TODAY BECAUSE OF MY IN RECOGNIZING WE ARE LUCKY TOP PGA HEALTH CARE.

>> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER DEAN. COMMISSIONER SMITH.

ZO >> I HAVE A QUESTION IN REGARD TO ITS COMPETITIVENESS. I WANT TO CITE AN ARTICLE BY BOB ESPN SENIOR WRITER, MAY 4TH 2021.

PREMIER GOLF LEAGUE PROMISING MULTIMILLION DOLLAR GUARANTEES TO TOP RANKED GOLFERS TO BREAK AWAY HAS REEMERGED.

DAILY TELEGRAPH REPORTED THAT THE WORLD TOUR WOULD BEGIN IN SEPTEMBER 2022 LIKELY FORCING PLAYERS TO CHOOSE BETWEEN PGA TOUR AND CIRCUIT BACKED BY SAUDI ARABIA AND MONEY INTERESTS.

SAUDI ARABIA MONEY INTERESTS FROM THIS ARTICLE ARE GOING TO JUPITER, FLORIDA. WHICH IS PALM BEACH COUNTY WHERE PGA AMERICA LEFT FROM AND LOOKING FOR FAST DECISIONS FROM PLAYERS IN ORDER TO GET THE TOUR UP AND RUNNING.

IS THAT SOMETHING YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT?

>> NO PUN INTENDED. >> NOT CONCERNING.

>> THANK YOU FOR THE ANSWER. [LAUGHTER].

>> YOU HAVE TO MAKE PAR. >> THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER

[01:40:01]

SMITH. ANY FURTHER COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD? OKAY.

STAFF, YOU ASKED FOR A FEW MOMENTS.

WE HAD A RECOMMENDATION FROM COMMISSIONER WALDRON?

>> I MIGHT BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THAT.

I THINK THE ANSWER IS SIMILAR. 25 YEAR AGREEMENT FOR ALMOST ANYTHING IS WHERE IT IS CONSULTING IN TWO PARTIES AND COUNTY. FIVE YEARS WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATE. IF THAT WORKS OUT WELL, THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE THE COUNTY AND PGA TOUR WORKED TOGETHER ON A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT ITEMS WITHIN PGA TOUR AND COUNT. THAT MIGHT BE THROUGH THE AGREEMENT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

AT THIS POINT TO MAKE 25 YEARS PART OF THIS AGREEMENT ISN'T SOMETHING WE THINK WOULD BE A SMART THING TO DO WHEN WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SEE HOW FIVE WORKS.

I THINK 25 WOULD BE MUCH AND RESPECTFULLY ASK IT STAY FIVE WITHIN THE NEGOTIATED AGREEMENT. I DO THINK IT CAN COME UP IN OTHER FORMS AS THE COUNTY AND TOUR WORK TOGETHER AS THEY DO THROUGHOUT ALMOST EVERY MONTH. THEY WILL BE RE-EVALUATED EVERY FIVE YEARS. THAT IS TOUGH.

NONE OF US WILL BE HERE FIVE YEARS.

IT IS TOUGH DOING A 25-YEAR -- THIS IS WHAT IT SAYS.

NOT UP FOR AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN COMMISSIONER.

THEY GET FORGOTTEN. WHAT WERE Y'ALL THINKING AT THE TIME. WHAT WAS GOING ON YOU MADE THAT

DECISION. >> I THINK WE WOULD BE AMIDABLE TO RIDE IN THERE AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE FIVE-YEAR PERIOD PARTIES WILL REEXAM THE AGREEMENT AND DETERMINE A MUTUAL FASHION. HOW BEST TO CONFORM.

>> IT WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE AN EXTENSION AT THE MUTUAL

AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES? >> CORRECT.

[01:46:19]

$3,384,893 GROSS RECEIPTS, THIS IS A WEALTHY CORPORATION.

SUPREME COURT HELD IN THE CASEY MARTIN CASE COMMERCIAL ENTERPRISE RUN FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITS OWNERS.

THEY HAVEN'T EARNED THE RIGHT TO 16 MILLION IN CHANGE FROM ST.

JOHNS COUNTY TAX PAYORS. THIS WOULD BE A SERIOUS BREECH OF FE DUTY. LOBBYIST INFORM TALLAHASSEE FOR THE PGA TOUR ALSO LOBBYIST FOR ST. JOHNS COUNTY AND ST. JOHNS COUNTY SHERIFF AND JACKSONVILLE AND JTA AND ALL THE DEVELOPERS.

THE PARK GROUP. THIS STINKS ON ICE.

PLEASE VOTE NO. >> THANK YOU.

>> FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT ON ITEM 2?

[APPLAUSE] >> BJ WEST CITY OF ST. AUGUSTINE A PHUT -- A PUTT-PUTT GOLFER. 16.7 MILLION DOLLARS FOR HIS COMPANY TO BUILD A MEDIA BUILDING FOR A PGA TOUR.

THE GLOBAL HOME RECEIVED TAX BREAKS ALSO KNOWN AS INCENTIVES FOR GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS. HAS A SELLING POINT COUNTY CAN USE FOR MEDIA OUTREACH. COMMISSIONER MAYS DID NOT SPEAK AT THE MEETING. AT LEAST HE SPOKE TODAY.

LET ME ENCOURAGE -- YOU GET A REAL FEEL WHEN YOU SIT IN THIS ROOM. 23.3 MILLION TO 16.7 MILLION.

LET'S HOPE THIS DEVELOPER WILL NOT RETURN WITH CHANGES AS THE COST OF LUMBER INCREASES. THIS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE PLANNING WITH CONSIDERATION FOR QUALITY OF LIFE RESIDENTS.

THIS IS NOT WORLD CLASS LIVING. MOST OF US ARE NOT FARMERS, HOWEVER WE KNOW A 50 POUND BAG OF POTATOES WILL NOT FIT IN A FIVE POUND BAG. THERE IS NO EX PARTE.

THEY HAVE BEEN TALKING WITH YOU SINCE APRIL.

I WANT TO THANK COMMISSIONER SMITH FOR YOUR HOMEWORK AND FOR YOUR PRESENTATION AND THERE NEEDS TO BE MORE HOMEWORK BY OUR STAFF. WE NEED TO EITHER TABLE AND BRING THIS BACK NEXT BCCC MEETING OR ELSE THERE WILL BE HOPEFULLY A 3-2 VOTE IN FAVOR. 3-2 VOTE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF VOTING DONE BY THIS COMMISSION WHICH IS FINE.

IT IS NOT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.

LET'S GET BACK TO THE EX PARTE. IT IS NOT JUST SOME APRIL, MAY.

HOW MANY CONVERSATIONS HAVE YOU HAD WITH THIS DEVELOPER AND

[01:50:04]

LAWYER? TOO MUCH TALKING BEHIND THE SCENES THERE ARE NO SECRETS. WE THE PUBLIC NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON AND HOW YOU ARE SPENDING OUR TAX DOLLARS, THIS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE SPENDING. FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT ITEM 2 SEEING NONE MR. CHAIRMAN COMPLETES PUBLIC COMMENT.

>> MR. CHAIRMAN IF I MAY. >> WE ARE BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. I WANT TO MENTION EX PARTE DISCLOSURES REQUIRED WHICH YOU WILL HAVE IN THE AGENDA COMING UP. THIS IS AN EXECUTIVE BOARD

ACTION. >> THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT BACK TO THE BOARD. MOTION BY COMMISSIONER DEAN SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST.

>> JUST FOR CLARIFICATION. I THINK COMMISSIONER WALDRON TALKED ABOUT A COUPLE OF THINGS, ONE WAS USING THE MORE GENERAL AGENT, I THINK FOR THE COMMUNICATIONS.

OTHER WAS AT THE END OF THE FIVE YEARS THAT THE PARTIES WILL RECONSIDER. DOES THE MAKER OF THE MOTION IS THAT THE INTENT? THANK YOU, WE ARE GOING TO

COMMISSIONER SMITH. >> JUST IN DISCUSSION.

>> I VOTED FOR RESOLUTION 2017 FOR A GLOBAL HOME.

I VOTED FOR THE RESOLUTION FOR NORTH OF DRUMMOND.

THERE WERE FOUR-YEAR AGREEMENTS CONTRACTS THIS IS 25 YEARS.

I HAVE TREMENDOUS RESERVATIONS IN REGARD TO THAT.

THAT IS A LONG TIME. I JUST CANNOT IN GOOD CONSCIENCE DO THAT AT THIS POINT THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN.

>> THANK YOU, SIR. ANY FURTHER COMMENTS?

>> COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST? >> VERY QUICKLY.

I WANT TO POINT AGAIN TO THE OVERALL ECONOMIC IMPACT THAT THIS IS, I WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR ANYTHING I WASN'T CONVINCED A FINANCIAL BENEFIT TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT I THINK WARRANTS THE ECONOMIC PACKAGE. I AM GOING TO VOTE YES.

>> COMMISSIONER SMITH? >> EVEN MR. MAYS' COMMENTS HE WAS NOT WILLING TO DO 25 YEAR AGREEMENT BECAUSE OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN IN THAT LENGTH OF TIME. HOWEVER FIVE YEARS AND FIVE YEARS. OUR COUNTY CAME OUT OF SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC DOWN TURN. WE ARE WORKING DAILY ACTIVELY.

I AM GOING OVER VERY BRIEFLY. THIS IS 304 MILLION DOLLAR DIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT. IT IS GREAT AS FAR AS NEW HOMES TO OVER 300 JOBS. 724 CONSTRUCTION JOBS.

READING OFF OF THE SLIDE PRESENTED BY STAFF.

THIS IS 16.7 MILLION SCHOOL TAXES OVER 30 MILLION YEARS.

NOT NEW RESIDENTIAL GROWTH. SCHOOL TAXES COMING IN.

BEST SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA AND WANT TO CONTINUE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. ALMOST 45 MILLION SCHOOL TAXES.

[01:55:16]

THIS BOARD MADE A COMMITMENT RECENTLY TO ECONOMIC GROWTH AND JOB CREATION. I AM VOTING YES THAT MEANS THERE ARE BOARD GUIDELINES. ANY FURTHER COMMENTS?

3, THIS IS A QUASI-JUDICIAL MATTER THAT REQUIRES PUBLIC COMMENT AS WELL AS DISCLOSURES FROM THE BOARD COMMISSIONER

WHITEHURST? >> NONE.

>> COMMISSIONER WALDRON? >> NONE.

>> COMMISSIONER DEAN? >> NONE.

>> I HAVE NONE AS WELL. >> GOOD MORNING.

SHANNON, THIS IS THE SILVER CREEK COMMERCIAL MAJOR MODIFICATION. AND MY CLIENT IS DANIA BEAT COMPANY MY CLIENT IS HERE SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IS A FOUR-ACRE PARCEL.

NORTH SIDE OF STATE ROAD 207 AS YOU CAN SEE ALONG SILVER LANE.

IT IS IN THE MIXED USE DISTRICT. AS I MENTIONED IT IS WITHIN THE SILVER CREEK PUD. PROVIDED THIS MAP WITHIN THE BOUNDARY. THIS IS THE SITE.

IT IS AN L-SHAPED SITE ALONG STATE ROAD 207.

PUD PARTIALLY DEVELOPED OUT WITH ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY AS YOU CAN SEE. PROJECT SUMMARY FOR THIS PARTICULAR MAJOR MODIFICATION TWOFOLD.

ONE TO INCORPORATE TINY 0.3 ACRE SITE INTO THE PUD BOUNDARY.

LEFT OUT FOR A SITE FOR THE COUNTY SINCE THEN DISCOVERED MORE LAND AREA NEEDED FOR THE COUNTY AND DEVELOPED THEIR UTILITY FACILITY. IT NEVER MADE IT INTO THE DESCRIPTION. OTHER PIECE OF THIS MODIFICATION REQUEST REDUCE A USE BUFFER FROM 20 FEET TO 10 FEET MEETING TYPICAL PERIMETER BUFFER AND SIMILARLY TO REDUCE FROM 20 FEET TO EIGHT FEET WHICH IS TYPICAL OF A LANDSCAPE BUFFER TO PARKING AREAS ALONG THE NORTHERN BOUNDARY WHICH FACES A POND ALTHOUGH IT IS A POND INTERIOR TO PUD.

THIS MODIFICATION DOESN'T INCREASE SQUARE FOOTAGE.

REMAINING 7740 AFTER THIS PARTICULAR PIECE IS DEVELOPED.

THIS IS THE SILVER CREEK COMMERCIAL SITE.

THERE IS ALSO ENCOMPASS HEALTH UNDERWAY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF SILVER LANE. THIS GIVES YOU AN IDEA WITH RELATION TO BUFFER REDUCTION REQUEST.

SO IN TERMS OF THIS WAIVER WE ARE REQUESTING IT WOULD ALLOW A 10-FOOT BUFFER ALONG THIS SIDE. HERE IS THAT FDOT POND.

IT WOULD BE A LANDSCAPE BUFFER. WE DO BELIEVE THERE IS EFFICIENCY TO BEY BEING ABLE TO CIRCULATE THE PARKING AND SUCH. HERE IS THAT LITTLE SQUARE WE TALKED ABOUT. INCORPORATING THAT INTO THE PUD

[02:00:06]

MORE EFFICIENCY TO CIRCULATE BUILDINGS ABOVE THERE.

NORTHERN BOUNDARY THIS WOULD BE THAT LANDSCAPE BUFFER.

HERE IS THE EXISTING POND FOR PUD.

THERE WOULD BE A FENCE ALONG THE NORTHERN BOUNDARY AS WELL.

THAT JUST GIVES YOU A VISUAL TO SHOW HOW THOSE BUFFERS WOULD BE LAID OUT FOR THAT WAIVER REQUEST.

TO ALLOW FOR THESE REDUCED BUFFERS AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, PROPOSED MODIFICATION DOESN'T CAUSE ANY KIND OF INCOMPATIBLE CONCERNS FOR ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT.

BOTH WAIVERS NEXT TO PONDS ALREADY DEVELOPED.

IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND PERMITTING AGENCY REQUIREMENTS. WE REQUEST APPROVAL OF THIS MAJOR MODIFICATION. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

>> THANK YOU, ANYTHING FROM STAFF? SEEING NONE. ANYTHING FROM THE BOARD.

OPEN UP TO PUBLIC COMMENT. >> WE NOW TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT ON ITEM 3. THIS IS QUASI-JUDICIAL, I SEE NO COMMENTS. IT WILL BE AN OPENING OF A KNEW COMMUNITY OUTREACH FOR OUR VETERANS.

I CAN SEE A LOT OF DANGER NOT ONLY OUR VETERANS BUT ALL OF OUR CITIZENS THAT ARE USING THAT INTERSECTION THE ONES COMING OUT OF SILVER CREEK SENIOR RETIREMENT COMMUNITY THERE.

THE ONES COMING OUT OF THE DEERFIELD COMMUNITY AS WELL AS OUR VETERANS WHO ARE UTILIZING AND PASSING THROUGH THAT INTERSECTION. I AM HERE THIS MORNING TO ASKED THE COUNTY COMMISSION BOARDS. SUMMER LAST YEAR I APPROACHED THE D DOT. THEIR HEALTH CARE AND COME OUT AND BE INJURED OR KILLED AT THAT INTERSECTION.

I AM REQUESTING THAT THE COUNTY BOARD THIS MORNING TAKE UNDER ADVISEMENT A REQUEST FOR A TRAFFIC STUDY WITH F DOT TO PUT AND INSTALL A TRAFFIC LIGHT AT THAT INTERSECTION.

THANK YOU. THE SITE SUBJECT IS HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW. THE SUBJECT MAJOR MOD.

C BOCK -- IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE COUNTY ROAD 207 FROM THAT

PARTICULAR LOCATION. >> LET'S COME BACK TO THAT FOR A

[02:05:12]

MINUTE. I THINK THE F DOT HAS BEEN RATHER POULTRY IN ALLOCATION FOR FUNDS.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE RECORD, THERE IS AN AREA CALLED DEADMAN'S CURVE. F DOT DOESN'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THE VALUE OF HUMAN LIFE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE HISTORY UNDER THE REAGAN AND BUSH ADMINISTRATION -- MR. FOX AND MR. PIT. MR. FOX ASKS MR. PIT WHAT HE ENJOYS, I ENJOY A GOOD BALANCE SHEET.

GIVING AWAY THAT MUCH MONEY TO A MULTIBILLION DOLLAR ORGANIZATION AND BUILD THAT BUILDING ANY WAY, IT IS JUST WRONG I TOTALLY AGREE. THANK YOU.

>> BJ CLADY. TRAFFIC LIGHTS.

SINCE YOU ARE ASKING FOR THEM, $130,000.

I DON'T KNOW WHO WOULD DO THIS STUDY FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC WANTS TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION WE'LL FIND OUT LATER ON SOME PLACE. YOU ARE DOING THIS BIG WORK FORCE PRETTY SOON. THIS IS INFORMATION PROVIDED AT ONE OF THE BOARD COUNTY COMMISSIONER MEETINGS ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON UP THERE. I WOULD LIKE TO BE ON THE RECORD TO REMIND YOU ALL THERE HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTS AND DEATHS AT STOKES LANDING. STUDIES CAN OR CANNOT PROVE.

>> YES, THANK YOU. I'LL GIVE A QUICK SUMMARY WITH THIS PROJECT PLANNING, BY NO MEANS TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER.

I'LL GIVE A GENERAL SUMMARY. WHAT WE HAVE HERE.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR ANY ADDITIONAL COMMERCIAL SQUARE FOOTAGE WITHIN THIS PUD THAT IS ALREADY APPROVED.

THE REASON FOR THIS MAJOR MODIFICATION IS TO INCORPORATE A 0.30 ACRE PIECE OF PROPERTY. WE ARE CLARIFYING THAT WITH THIS MODIFICATION, REDUCTION IN BUFFERS.

HOWEVER WE ARE PLANNING PART OF THE ENGINEERING WE WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT TRIP GENERATION AND TRAFFIC.

AT THIS TIME IT IS NOT EXACTLY KNOWN WHAT THAT TRIP GENERATION WILL BE. THIS PROJECT WILL BE A COMBINATION OF MEDICAL AND GENERAL OFFICE.

THOSE HAVE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT TRIP GENERATIONS.

[02:10:06]

AS FAR AS THE TRAFFIC SIGNALIZATION WE DID HAVE A PREAPPLICATION HOWEVER IT IS KIND OF A COMPLICATED METHODOLOGY THAT HAS TO BE DONE FIRST WITH TRAFFIC SITE ANALYSIS. THEN A MORE, AS I UNDERSTAND IT ADVANCED STUDY WOULD BE DONE AFTER THAT CALLED ICE WHICH LOOKS AT NOT ONLY TRIP GENERATION BUT THINGS LIKE SAFETY CONCERNS. CURVATURE OF THE ROAD.

POPULATION. PATHS TO SCHOOL BUSES.

ALL TYPES OF THINGS FACTOR INTO WHETHER OR NOT A SIGNAL SHOULD BE WARRANTED FOR A PARTICULAR LOCATION.

AT THIS TIME I DO NOT BELIEVE IT WOULD BE WARRANTED.

HOWEVER WE WOULD HAVE TO DO A FULL TRAFFIC STUDY TO UNDERSTAND

THAT BETTER. >> THANK YOU.

COMMISSIONER DEAN. >> FIRST OF ALL IT IS AMAZING, RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL BUSINESS GROWTH EXPONENTIAL.

IT AIN'T LIKE IT WAS FIVE YEARS AGO.

MY QUESTION. I DON'T KNOW IF HE HAD COMMENT OR SUGGESTIONS ABOUT A TRAFFIC STUDY TO DETERMINE WHETHER A TRAFFIC LIGHT IS WARRANTED AT THIS TIME.

THAT WOULD BE MY REQUEST. >> I THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD TO

HEAR FROM STAFF RIGHT NOW. >> GOOD MORNING MR. CHAIRMAN, COMMISSIONERS. FUNG WANG.

RELATING TO 207. WE HAVE BEEN MONITORING THAT SEGMENT OF ROADWAY FOR THE PAST OVER 12 YEARS.

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WITH THE INTERSECTION FOUR QUADRANTS THERE. TO DETERMINE WHETHER SIGNAL WARRANTS HAVE MET AND THEN IT TAKES ANOTHER AT LEAST 18 MONTHS AFTER THAT TO PROGRAM FOR SIGNALIZATION.

THOSE ARE FOR THE PUBLIC 207 WILL BE RESURFACED SOON WITHIN A YEAR OR SO. TRY TO AVOID 207 AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. SO.

DOES STAFF HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD? OKAY THANK YOU. MR. MCCORMICK.

>> SEEING HOW THZ THIS IS QUASI-JUDICIAL.

FOR THE RECORD ASK IF THERE IS ANY OTHER REBUTTAL TO PUBLIC COMMENT BY THE APPLICANT AT THIS TIME.

MR. CHAIRMAN, IT IS JUST MY SENSE AS YOUR COUNTY ATTORNEY.

I DO THINK THE REQUEST FROM COLONEL DUDLY RELATED TO THIS IN THE SAME INTERSECTION AREA. I DON'T THINK THIS POINTS TO THIS APPLICATION SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE.

THAT WAS MORE OF MY SENSE WAS A GENERAL REQUEST.

FOR THIS TRAFFIC STUDY. OR PERHAPS AN ACCELERATED REVIEW. I THINK ANY DIRECTION THE BOARD MIGHT WANT TO GIVE ON THAT CAN BE HANDLED SEPARATELY THAN ON A

[02:15:05]

MAJOR -- THANK YOU. >> COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST, I APPRECIATE COLONEL DUDLY BRING THIS UP.

>> I WAS GOING TO MAKE A MOTION? >> I'LL LET YOU DO THAT.

COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST FIRST. >> WHO WOULD PAY FOR THE TRAFFIC STUDY? DEVELOPER IN THIS CASE OR DOT? COUNTY ON THE HOOK? ANYBODY HAVE THE ANSWER?

>> MAY I MAKE A SUGGESTION. PART OF THIS APPROVAL TO HAVE THE APPLICANT CONDUCT SIGNAL WARRANT STUDY.

WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL DOT CAN COME THROUGH THERE.

JUST TO SEE THE IMPACT OF THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE INTERSECTION.

>> WITH ALL DO RESPECT TO MR. FONG.

IF THIS WERE A SPECIAL USE APPLICATION OR VARIANCE APPLICATION. I THINK THE BOARD COULD ATTACH A CONDITION LIKE THAT ON TO THIS FOR THE APPLICANT.

THIS BEING A PUD MAJOR MOD. IT WOULD BE MY ADVICE NOT TO REQUIRE THAT THE APPLICANT PAY FOR THAT IS PART OF THIS MAJOR MOD DECISION. THANK YOU.

>> WE ARE GOING TO COMMISSIONER DEAN NEXT.

312 INTERSECTIONS ALL THE WAY TO 95.

THIS PARTICULAR AREA IS GETTING CRAZY.

PERSONALLY, I WOULD NOT BE IN FAVOR OF TRYING TO REQUIRE OR OTHERWISE CON JOL THE APPLICANT. WHICH IS THE BUSY B.

THEY LOOK INTO THAT CONSIDERATION.

THE IMPACT OF THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENTS TO THAT PARTICULAR INTERSECTION. ALSO AS A RESULT IT MAY NOT WHEN DOT STUDIED THAT LIKE THEY HAD TO GO THROUGH ICE INTERSECTION

CONTROL EVALUATION. >> THE CLOSENESS OF LIGHTS, DOES THAT EFFECT FOR THE INTERSECTION.

>> YES. THEY LOOKED AT ADJACENT EXISTING

SIGNAL. >> IF I MAY ASK A QUESTION

[02:20:21]

THROUGH THE CHAIR. MR. DEWIN, OTHER THAN JUST A TRAFFIC COUNT FDOT CONSIDER NATURE OF THE TRAFFIC FOR EXAMPLE, THIS IS A VETERAN'S C BOCK AND ACROSS ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY IN OTHER WORDS, THERE COULD BE SOME FACTOR OF THE EXPECTED TRAFFIC OR DRIVERS. DO THEY LOOK AT QUALITATIVE STUFF OR JUST ON THE TRAFFIC NUMBERS?

>> THEY DO. THEY LOOK AT DAILY VOLUME.

CERTAIN PEAK HOUR VOLUME. WEEKEND VOLUME AND ALSO THE USE SURROUNDING THE INTERSECTION AND ALSO THEY LOOK AT FATALITY BASED ON ACCIDENTS ON THAT. THEN WHEN THEY LOOKED AT ALL THAT, THEY WILL BASICALLY LOOK AT TYPICAL HISTORICALLY TRAFFIC SIGNAL WILL RESOLVE MOST OF THE ISSUES.

NOW THEY WOULD LOOK AT WHAT WOULD BE BEST SUITABLE TO LOOK IN THE LONG TERM LIKE 30 YEARS FROM NOW WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST USE TO HAVE AT THIS INTERSECTION.

>> I AM PREPARED TO MAKE A MOTION? MOTION TO ENACT ORDZ NANS ORDNANCE.

2021-25. BASED ON SEVEN FINDINGS OF FACT.

As part of the recovery process, the County continues to complete projects that were included in FEMA’s Public Assistance Program. It is estimated that FEMA will reimburse up to 90% of eligible expenditures and the State will reimburse up to 5% of eligible expenditures, leaving St. Johns County to fund the remaining 5%. Summer Haven emergency beach berm project is estimated to cost $201,500 it is anticipated that FEMA and the State will reimburse $163,350 and $9,075 respectively, for the approved area and the County would be responsible for $20,000 of the area not approved. In total the County’s portion to complete this project would be $29,075. The County’s portion is requested herein to be transferred from the General fund.]

MITIGATION PROJECT MOST OF YOU HEARD ABOUT FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

>> ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU, WE APPRECIATE YOUR

[02:45:01]

HARD WORK. THANK YOU.

>> WHY DON'T WE MOVE INTO AGENDA ITEM NO. 10 AND ASSESS IF WE

WANT TO KEEP MOVING HERE. >> GOOD MORNING COMMISSIONERS, I AM HERE TO TALK ABOUT A SMALL BEACH PROJECT PART OF A LARGER PROJECT. THIS IS A SMALL PIECE.

REASON WHY I AM BRINGING IT TO YOU IS WE HAVE AN ABILITY FOR COST SAVINGS. WE HAVE A CONTRACTOR ALREADY WORKING ON A PROJECT TO DO A CHANGE ORDER TO BRING ON BOARD TO DO THIS SECTION WE HAVE. I APOLOGIZE THIS SLIDE IS MESSY.

IT IS THE AREA WE ARE TALKING ABOUT R MONUMENT 203 TO THE SOUTH, 202 TO THE NORTH. TO THE NORTH 202 WATERWAY DISTRICT PROJECT COMPLETED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO.

IRMA WE PUT IN A PROJECT FOR BETWEEN BASICALLY THE SOUTH AREA BASICALLY THE REASON WE WENT TO R 202 WE UNDERSTAND THE PORT WATERWAY DISTRICT WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO 202.

HOWEVER IT FELT SHY. 166 FEET DIFFERENCE NORTH OF 202. PROJECT CURRENTLY IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE FEMA REIMBURSEMENT BETWEEN R 203 AND R 202.

THAT IS THE 191 MILLION DOLLARS, 90% COST SHARE WITH THE STATE.

5 PERCENT FOR THE COUNTY. QUESTION I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT BETWEEN 202 AND 201.8, 166 FEET. THAT IS NOT CURRENTLY COVERED BY EITHER STORM EVENT HOWEVER WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT TO FEMA SPECIFICALLY ON THE IRMA -- THEY ARE LOOKING TO ALLOW US TO ADD THIS PIECE TO THE CLOSE OUT PROJECT.

WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSEMENT AT THE 9010 SPLITTER, 9055. HOWEVER WE DON'T HAVE THAT CURRENTLY. WE ARE WORKING AND TOLD IT IS LOOKING LIKE IT IS POSSIBLE. THAT IS THAT SEPARATE PIECE OF IT. SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR THAT.

SO WITH THAT, I HAVE A MOTION AND I AM HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.

>> ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? OKAY.

COMMISSIONER WHITEHURST? >> IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THROUGH RECEIVING SEVERAL E-MAILS THERE ARE PARTS OF OUR COASTLINE WHO NO LONGER WISH TO HAVE SAND THAT WE ONCE THOUGHT MAY HAVE WANTED SAND AND BOUGHT WITH FUNDING.

THERE HAS BEEN FUNDING ALLOCATED.

COULD SOME OF THAT FUNDING BE USED TO FUND THIS PROJECT TO

PROJECTS LIKE THAT? >> NO.

PROJECTS ARE VERY SPECIFIC WHERE THEY ARE ALLOCATED FOR CERTAIN

PROJECTS. >> I M COMING FORWARD WITH A LARGER PROJECT FEMA BEACH BIRM. ANSWER IS NO.

THAT IS WHAT IS COVERED. RESIDENTS OR FOR SOME REASON WE DON'T DO THAT PROJECT THERE, WE DON'T SEEK REIMBURSEMENT, THANK YOU. SIR.

>> COMMISSIONER DEAN? >> I AM SOME WHAT PUZZLED ABOUT THE FACT THIS PARTICULAR -- I AM SORRY? I THOUGHT I WAS SPEAKING INTO THE MICROPHONE.

I AM SOME WHAT PUZZLED AND DISAPPOINTED THIS PARTICULAR GAP THAT IS BEING PROPOSED DOESN'T RISE TO THE LEVEL OF 12 FEET BECAUSE PROBABLY DON'T SEE WAY TO CHANGE FEMA.

[02:50:07]

I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO DISCUSSION TODAY TO DISCUSS WHAT WOULD BE A MAJOR BUDGET IMPACT WITHOUT HAVING IT THOROUGHLY VETTED BY STAFF UNTIL THE TIME WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE FACTS COMMISSIONER SMITH CONSIDER BUDGET ITEMS WHEN THEY ARE WELL VETTED AND WELL REPAIRED. I WANT TO EXPRESS MY DISAPPOINTMENT. THIS GAP IS ONLY SIX FEET AND GOING TO CONNECT AS I UNDERSTAND IT.

>> TO THE SOUTH YOU ARE CORRECT BEACH BIRM WE PUT TOGETHER.

SO WE, IRMA TO GO BACK MATTHEW WE HAD A BREECH THERE.

THIS PROJECT WAS TO REPLACE PROTECTION FOR IRMA.

THERE WAS TWO PROJECTS IN THE LOCATION.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SOUTH, SOUTH IS IS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PROJECT. STARTED AS A ROAD PROJECT TALKED ABOUT PUTTING A ROAD IN A DUNE. THIS AREA ONLY QUALIFIES FOR BIRM SAND. ALREADY HAD A PROJECT WITH THE BREECH WE COULDN'T ADD TO IT. ONLY COULD GO UP TO THE FIVE-YEAR STORM LIMIT. I KNOW I AM GETTING MORE TECHNICAL. ONLY QUALIFIED UP TO SIX CUBIC

YARDS. >> BASED ON THAT OUR HANDS ARE TIED WITH RESPECT TO ADDITIONAL FUNDING.

THAT JUST REINFORCED MY POINT. MAYBE IN THE NOT TOO DISTANCE FUTURE CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGE. IT IS GOING TO BE A HUGE DIFFERENCE BASED ON STORMS WE DON'T EVEN PREDICT TODAY NEXT SIX MONTHS, NEXT YEAR, TWO YEARS.

STORM SURGE ON THIS PARTICULAR SECTION SIX FEET VS. TWELVE AND HIGHER. MAYBE WE WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO VISIT THIS WHEN TIMING IS APPROPRIATE.

I WANT TO BE TON RECORD. >> THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.

ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE BOARD? OPEN THIS UP TO PUBLIC COMMENT ITEM 10? PLEASE APPROACH THE PODIUM MISS

LINDA. >> IS IT MORNING OR AFTERNOON?

>> MORNING. >> GOOD MORNING MR. CHAIRMAN FELLOW COMMISSIONERS, LINDA GEN. PRESIDENT FRIENDS OF THE SUMMER HAVEN RIVER, 9051 JIM JOHNSON ROAD ST. AUGUSTINE.

I APPRECIATE YOU TABLING THIS. WE HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO GET WITH OUR CONSTITUENTS. WE HAVE PEOPLE PREPARED TO SPEAK IF NECESSARY. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE AT SUMMER HAVEN.

IT IS A SMALL HAMLET BUT A VERY VALUABLE PLACE.

IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN THERE INVITE YOU TO COME WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A COUPLE OF BRIEF COMMENTS. I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU VERY QUICKLY THE VOLUME AND I'LL TRY NOT TO TALK ABOUT SUMMER HAVEN RIVER. I NEED A SOAP BOX FOR THAT.

ANYHOW, BIRMS PROTECT HOMES NOT JUST 1A 1 BUT SUMMER ISLAND.

THEY PROTECT SUMMER HAVEN RIVER WHICH EFFECTS -- PROVIDES ENVIRONMENTAL RECREATIONAL, ECONOMIC AND HISTORIC BENEFITS.

PROTECTS A 1 A WHICH IS AN EVACUATION ROUTE.

I AM LOCAL, BORN AND RAISED IN ST. AUGUSTINE.

I HAVE SEEN TIMES WHEN IT WAS USED WHEN THEY HAD FIRES IN PALM COAST. THEY MADE BOTH LANES NORTHBOUND TO GET PEOPLE OUT BECAUSE THEY VERY IMPORTANT ROAD.95.- THESE DUNES PROTECT IT. DURING MATTHEW CAME RIGHT OVER A 1 A, WATER FROM THE OCEAN. IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT SUMMER HAVEN IT IS ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY. THE DUNES ALSO PROVIDE HABITAT.

TWO LISTED SPECIES THAT USE THE DUNES THERE.

[02:55:04]

SEA TURTLES AND LEASE TURNS PIPING CLOVERS, THERE IS A BENEFIT TO HABITAT AS WELL. I AM TELLING YOU THIS SO YOU CAN BE THINKING ABOUT IT WHEN YOU TALK TO PEOPLE AND WHEN YOU BRING THIS UP AGAIN. AND THE WAY TO PROTECT THIS AREA IS TO PUT IN A SUBSTANTIAL DUNE SYSTEM.

IT IS NOT HARDENED THERE. SHORELINE IS NOT HARDENED THERE.

ALL COASTLINES IN FLORIDA NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINED.

FROM WHAT WE CAN SEE AS PEOPLE WHO LIVE DOWN THERE IF YOU COULD REGULARLY MONITOR THE DUNE IF THERE IS A LOW AREA.

BRING IN SAND AND FILL THE LOW AREAS IN.

WATCH IT. BE PROACTIVE AM I DONE? UGH UGH. OKAY.

I CAN WRAP IT UP QUICKLY. IF THERE IS A BREECH THE SIZE OF THIS PODIUM, BRING SAND IMMEDIATELY UNDER EMERGENCY DEP PERMIT AND HEAL THE BREECH WHILE IT IS COST EFFECTIVE AND GET IT

CHEAPLY AND QUICKLY. >> WE ARE DONE.

>> OKAY, OKAY. THANK YOU.

>> NEXT SPEAKER. >> I AGREE WITH THE LADY AND VICE CHAIRMAN DEAN. ULTIMATE SOLUTION IS ONE PROPOSED BY THE MAYOR. IF WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT A 1 A. IF WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT OUR ECONOMY WE HAVE TO TAKE INITIATIVE TO GET CONGRESS TO PASS FIRST NATIONAL PARK SERVICE STUDY ACT.

PROVIDE FOR HEARINGS. AND IN TWO YEARS OR SO, MAYBE LESS CONGRESS WOULD GET RECOMMENDATIONS FROM NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, TWO, THREE, FOUR RECOMMENDATIONS.

I THINK WHAT IT NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE THOUGH IS PROPOSAL WE CAME UP WITH IN 2006. THAT WOULD TAKE ACRES.

HALF LAND ACQUIRED BY AND REDEEMED FOR HOT WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT. PUT THAT ALTOGETHER.

140,000 ACRES IN TWO COUNTIES. WE CAN PRESERVE AND PROTECT OUR SYSTEM PUT IT IN THE HANDS OF THE PROFESSIONALS.

SEE THE BOOK CADILLAC DESERT. DESCRIBES WHAT THE ARMY CORP DID TO THE WEST. NATIONAL PARKS SERVICE BEEN DESCRIBED AS AMERICA'S BEST IDEA.

IF YOU LOOK AT KEN BURN SERIES, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE PARKS WAS THE RESULT OF LOCALS. PEOPLE WHO SAW A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET WHERE THEY SAW A BEAUTIFUL FOREST OR GRAND CANYON. THEY SAID WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT THIS. WE HAVE TO MAKE THAT DECISION, GENTLEMAN. FASTER THAN THE SPEEDING DUMP TRUCK DEVELOPERS ARE MAKING ST. JOHNS COUNTY GOD'S COUNTRY.

FUTURE AGENDA, LET'S TALK WITH OUR CONGRESSMAN.

LET'S GIVE THEM WORK TO DO. WORK THAT IS BENEFITTING THE PEOPLE RATHER THAN VOTING TO SACK LIZ CHENEY OR RIDICULOUS STUFF OR SUPPORTING INSURRECTIONIST OR SAYING TO SAY BIDEN WASN'T ELECTED. LET'S GET ST. JOHNS COUNTY TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE PEOPLE. HISTORICAL PARK.

WOULD PRESERVE WHAT WE KNOW AND LOVE.

PROTECT US FROM FLOODING. HELP TO INCREASE BARRIERS.

PROTECT US IN THE EVENT OF ANOTHER HURRICANE OR OCEAN LEVEL RISE. WE HAVE TO DO IT, FOLKS.

DEVELOPERS ARE NOT GOING TO DO IT FOR YOU.

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN CONTINUE TEARING DOWN NATURE AND DESTROYING WHAT WE KNOW AND LOVE. TO PRESERVE AND VALUE PEOPLE'S HOMES. WE HAVE TO HAVE.

THANK YOU, YES. YES, SIR.

NAME AND ADDRESS PLEASE. >> GOOD MORNING, MR. CHAIRMAN, COMMISSIONERS, ST. JOHNS COUNTY STAFF.
