VII. PUBLIC HEARING.
A. Applications for Development Approval
G1. An application submitted by Randall Stofft Architects as
agent for Howard and Bonita Erbstein, owners of the
property located at 3288 Gulf Stream Road, Gulf Stream,
Florida, which is legally described as Lot 28 Gulf Stream
Properties and the north 50' of Lot 27, for the following:
a. LAND CLEARING PERMIT to clear the building site and
replace and relocate other trees and plants as
listed.
b. SPECIAL EXCEPTION to permit 282 sq. ft. of covered
unenclosed roof projection that exceeds the maximum
permitted floor area ratio.
C. LEVEL 3 ARCHITECTURAL /SITE PLAN REVIEW to demolish
existing structures and construct 3 Gulf Stream
Bermuda structures, 6,605 sq. ft. two -story dwelling
with attached garage, 381 sq. ft. guest house, and
381 sq.ft. detached garage and a swimming pool.
Mr. Thrasher said that this is an Application for Development submitted
by Randall Stofft Architects as agent for Howard and Bonita Erbstein at
3288 Gulf Stream Road for a Land Clearing Permit, Special Exception and
Level III Architectural /Site Plan Review. He asked if there were any
ex -parte communications concerning this matter. Commissioner Devitt
stated that he used to own the house and had ex -parte communications
with Tom Smith and Charles Frankel, both members of the ARPB, and Bob
Souaid. Mayor Koch said it is a shame to see the house being demolished
because it was the first house built in the Core area while all of the
other homes were along AIA. He said at one time an heir to the Russian
Romanoffs, Prince Romanoffsky- Llyinsky, lived in the home with his
girlfriend and hosted many parties.
Clerk Taylor administered the oath to Randall Stofft of Randall Stofft
Architects and to Stephanie Portus, Landscape Architect with Krent
Wieland Design, Inc. Randall Stofft briefly reviewed the plans stating
that it is a beautiful site. He said they wanted to create nicely
composed facades on both streets, with single story elements on each
C side of the 2 -story structure to blend in with the single story homes on
either side of the property. He said the house is nicely framed with a
very large tree which was existing on the property and additional trees
and hedges. Mr. Stofft said the Erbsteins wanted a beautiful backyard
and garden area which will be framed by the house and the single story
pavilion. He said there were a few minor issues that were resolved at
the July ARPB Meeting.
Mayor Koch asked how many garages there are. Mr. Stofft said there are
3 garages on the side and another structure which sits back about 100
feet with a garage and cabana storage.

VIII. Reports.
C A. Town Manager
1. Undergrounding Update - Danny Brannon of Brannon and
Gillespie, LLC
Mr. Thrasher introduced Danny Brannon of Brannon & Gillespie, LLC, the
consultant firm hired by the Town to assess the process for the overhead
utility undergrounding project. He asked Mr. Brannon to attend the
meeting to summarize their findings and answer questions. Mr. Brannon
provided a hard copy of presentation which was distributed to the
Commissioners prior to calling this meeting to order.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - August 13, 2010 Page 4
Mr. Brannon said he will bring the Commission up to date on their
progress and briefly summarize some of the issues they will be facing in
the future. The consultants developed a budget projection for the
project and Mr. Brannon verified that the project opinion cost
($4,642,434.92) has not changed. Mr. Brannon said the next step was to
develop an assessment methodology for which the Town contracted with
OWilldan Financial Services. He explained that assessment methodology is
basically looking at a function of special benefits and identifying them
with each parcel. Mr. Brannon said the parcels are identified by type
of use and, in Gulf Stream, they are looking at single family, multi-
family, non residential. Willdan Financial Services has gone through
the Town and developed about 550 parcels that the property appraiser
categorizes as an individual parcel and identified the benefits to each
parcel. They have been identified relative to: safety, such as lines
falling on a property or blocking access; reliability, such as the
possibility of a power outage; and, aesthetics, such as lines becoming a
visual distraction. He said Willdan is very well versed in this work
and their process has been used all over the Country.
Mr. Brannon said that Willdan completed their assessment and Brannon and
Gillespie has their database which they will use to verify costs. He
said the benefit to the Town's undergrounding will be less for parcels
having existing underground and adjustments will be made for those
parcels. His firm is going through the database and will develop the
variations of cost, hoping to complete this process within a couple of
weeks so that Willdan can complete their report on assessment
methodology.
Mr. Brannon said they just completed this process for Jupiter Inlet
Colony and will be going out to the residents to take a vote on their
underground project. He said the next topic of discussion for Gulf
Stream will be about the process they prefer for project approval. He
will have discussions with Mr. Thrasher and come back to the Commission
with information concerning the matter. Commissioner Anderson asked if
it will be by straw ballot. Commissioner Wheeler said that the
Commission will have to make the decision as to how the Town will
proceed with approval. Mayor Koch said he would like the residents to
have all of the facts, the Town will probably hold a public meeting
where Mr. Brannon and his team will be able to answer questions and then
residents will be asked to vote.
Mr. Brannon said that Jupiter Inlet Colony recently invited their
residents to an informational meeting where the Commission established
that they would undertake the project with a simple majority of yes
votes and it would be totally dependent upon the voters. He said when
it went to a vote on Jupiter Island, which is mostly single family
residential, residents were told they would have ad valorem assessments
and the vote was 96% in favor. Mr. Brannon said that Jupiter Inlet
Colony will be non -ad valorem, which will probably be the case in Gulf
Stream due to the variation in parcel classifications, but each resident
will know what their cost will be prior to voting. Mayor Koch asked Mr.
Brannon when the information will be ready to distribute to residents.
Mr. Brannon said that Willdan Financial Services will have the
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - August 13, 2010
Page 5
information they need to complete their report in about two weeks and
estimated that it would be 2 - 4 weeks before their report will be
available. Vice -Mayor Orthwein mentioned that it would be a while
before the majority of residents would be back in Town. Mr. Brannon
said it would take 2 - 4 weeks to develop the ballot structure.
Commissioner Wheeler asked if the County would see this as an
^ opportunity to raise taxes. Mr. Brannon said he has seen nothing like
that on record so far.
After the approval process, the next step will be to obtain basic
surveys of street rights -of -way property lines, existing utilities,
driveways, sidewalks and structures to use as a base for detailed
engineering designs. Mr. Brannon said he discussed this with Mr.
Thrasher and they anticipated the cost for the surveys would be between
$20,000 and $40,000. His firm approached three different companies for
proposals and the cost was twice that amount. Mr. Brannon said his firm
felt that the scope of work was more than they anticipated so they
called some of the companies to ask why. The feedback was that some
companies do not have the plats, property constrictions, controls or the
records experience in the community to keep the price down. He said
what they typically do in this case is develop a pool of 3 or 4 survey
companies and piece meal the work out in a competitive manner to the
pool, which has been very successful with both landscape and survey
work. Mr. Brannon said that his firm has provided the Town with a draft
of the RFP and will get that out as soon as the Town approves.
Mr. Thrasher said he informed the Commission in a previous meting that
the Town was going forward with the survey. However, that was when he
thought the cost was within the amount already appropriated. He said he
has had conversations with Mr. Brannon and was informed that there will
be additional costs for a scope of work and an official RFP process.
Mr. Thrasher said the Town does not have to do the surveying at this
stage and can do the approval process first before expending additional
money. Mr. Brannon said the surveying cost would be about $100,000.00.
Mr. Thrasher explained that it includes the four phases of surveying
which are listed in the handout. Mayor Koch said he wanted to be sure
that all costs are included in the information provided to the residents
and that there are no surprises.
Mr. Brannon briefly explained that FPL has made a policy decision to not
let an applicant's contractor do primary cable terminations. He said
C that the tariffs filed with the Florida Public Service Commission
provide that the applicant may perform part or all of the underground
facilities, but this is an FPL management- driven mandate which has not
yet been challenged and will become an issue concerning efficiency and
cost effectiveness. Mr. Randolph asked Mr. Brannon if this is a new
position by FPL since the Jupiter Island project was completed. Mr.
Brannon said his company did everything in Jupiter Island and this is a
new FPL position. He said the crews they hire for this type of
construction are FPL approved as far as insurance, training and safety
practices and these crews include workers that are on FPL's switching
list, which means that than can call dispatchers and execute switching
orders. Vice -Mayor Orthwein asked if there are ways to get around this
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - August 13, 2010 Page 6
or challenge it. Mr. Brannon said he believes it will be challenged and
it could be Jupiter Inlet Colony, the Town of Gulf Stream or MUCC who
challenges them. Mr. Thrasher asked if MUCC is aware of this situation
and Mr. Brannon said it has not yet been sent out to them.
Mr. Brannon said another issue is that FPL continues to reduce staff,
O which has resulted in a slower and longer response time. He said his
firm provided a binding cost estimate deposit to FPF at the beginning of
June for a very small project. FPP did not assign an engineer for that
project until July 11`h. Mr. Brannon said it will take about 6 months to
develop a binding cost estimate and about 6 months to get cost estimates
from FPL, but they are getting good response from Comcast and AT &T.
Commissioner Devitt asked about assessing each homeowner for these
improvements and wanted to know if a cost range is available yet for
those who have everything in place for undergrounding versus those that
do not. He asked if the assessment could be between $8,000 and $30,000.
Mr. Brannon said that the average cost could be around $15,000 or maybe
a little more or less, but the cost for those who already have
undergrounding will be about half that amount or less. Mayor Koch asked
which power lines will remain on poles. Mr. Brannon said the lines
north of The Little Club and south of Pelican because they are out of
the Town limit. He said there will be 7 or 8 switch cabinets which will
provide fuse locations for loops that will reach out in both directions
along A1A. Mayor Koch asked if the wiring will be deep enough so they
do not interfere with the Australian Pines and Mr. Brannon confirmed
that.

1. Meeting Dates
a. September 23, 2010 @ 8:30 A.M.
b. October 28, 2010 @ 8:30 A.M.
c. November 18, 2010 @ 8:30 A.M.

C. Finance Director
1. Financial Report for July 2010
Mr. Thrasher requested that the Financial Report for July 2010 be
approved as submitted. Commissioner Anderson inquired about a $98.00
payment to Bob's Quick Print which is on Page 5 of the Report. Clerk
Taylor explained that the payment was for a combination of printing
jobs, including business cards for the Police Department and Building
Permit Receipts. Commissioner Devitt asked Mr. Thrasher if there was a
page in the Report that would show where we are in this year's budget.
�4 Mr. Thrasher said the General Fund is on Page 2 which indicates that we
have collected 91% or our expected revenue and we have spent 78% of what
we anticipated in expenditures. He said we would typically have spent
83% of anticipated expenditures at this point, but we are below that.
Commissioner Devitt asked Mr. Thrasher if there was something coming up
that he expects to spend the extra 5% on before the end of the Fiscal
Year. Mr. Thrasher said there is. He said any expenditure the Town has
that is un- appropriated would still be classified in a manner that fits
the budget. He added that he would prefer to put money into the fund
balance rather than go over budget based on the appropriation amounts.
Commissioner Devitt asked for the amount of the fund balance and Mr.
Thrasher said it was $1.3 or $1.4 million. He said although it was
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - August 13, 2010 Page 7
anticipated that we would take money from the fund balance, we have not
done so as of this date. Commissioner Devitt moved and Commissioner
Anderson seconded to approve the Financial Report for July 2010. There
was no further discussion. All voted AYE.
2. Water Usage as of July 31, 2010
Mr. Thrasher said the amount of water usage which the Town cannot bill
out is 2.6 %. Commissioner Wheeler asked what the amount was before
repairs were made. Mr. Thrasher said it was in the teens. He said the
Town is still opening the hydrants for flushing and to maintain the
proper amount of chlorine residual levels throughout the system and we
cannot bill that out. Considering these factors, the 12 -month average
is 2.6 %. Commissioner Wheeler asked Mr. Thrasher if he could provide an
analysis of how long it will take to pay for the repairs if we continue
at the same rate of savings. Mr. Thrasher said he would prepare an
analysis.
D. Police Chief
1. Activity for July 2010
Chief Ward asked that the Activity Report for July 2010 be accepted as
submitted. The Report was unanimously accepted.
IX. Items for Commission Action.
A. Appointment of Alternate Member for ARPB
1. Letter of interest -Bill Coleman
Clerk Taylor stated that the Town received a letter of interest from Mr.
Bill Coleman who would like to be appointed as an Alternate Member of
the Architectural Review and Planning Board. The letter was included in
the Commission packet. Commissioner Devitt asked if Mr. Coleman was in
town all year. Mayor Koch said he would be in Town for all but one
month each year. Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved and Commissioner Wheeler
seconded to appoint Bill Coleman as an Alternate Member of the
Architectural Review and Planning Board. There was no further
discussion. All voted AYE.
B. Proposed Agreement for Actuarial Services - Foster & Foster,
Inc.
Mr. Thrasher said that staff is asking the Commission to approve a
contract with an Actuarial that will perform services as it relates to
retirement benefits for Town retirees. He explained that by state law
we must offer the option to our employees to purchase our health
insurance upon retirement and all governments are required to do that.
The recent GASB Rule 45 requires that even though there may be no one
/1 exercising the option to take part in the insurance, there is an
intangible cost with a possible liability and it has to be calculated.
If we do not do it, we will not receive a clean opinion on our audit.
He said it is another unfunded mandate and we have been advised by our
Auditor that for a smaller municipality the Rule takes affect this year.
Commissioner Wheeler asked what the downside would be if the Auditor
states that he has audited everything, but the Town did not abide by
GASB 45 and, therefore, he does not know if our unfunded health care is
in line. He also asked if we need someone to audit our unfunded health
care if no one has taken the option. Mr. Thrasher said it is a policy
decision, but if we have an unclean opinion there may be some negative
affect or connotation and, therefore, it would be his recommendation to
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - August 13, 2010 Page 8
do this. Commissioner Wheeler said it would not bother him if our
Auditor stated that the Town did not abide by GASB 45 and did not have a
clean opinion. Mayor Koch agreed. Commissioner Devitt asked Mr.
Thrasher if this item could be tabled until the next meeting and if he
could find out what the downside would be if the Town did not do this.
Mr. Thrasher said the downside would be having a qualified opinion that
is not a clean opinion, and anyone looking at our financial statements
will see that disclosure and question the integrity of those statements.
Commissioner Wheeler asked Mr. Thrasher to have the Auditor show us the
disclaimer sentence they would write in the Audit if we did not do this.
Mr. Randolph said he must go along with Mr. Thrasher's recommendation.
However, he said he feels the liability is limited and does not believe
the Statute carries any liability with it, and it may be limited to
exactly what Commissioner Wheeler has indicated. Mr. Thrasher said the
cost is $3,650 over three years and it is an annuity. Mayor Koch said
they will table this item until the Auditor provides some answers.
Everyone was in agreement to table the matter.
C. Proposed Agreement for Auditing Services- NoWlan, Holt, Miner
Mr. Thrasher said that our contract with our Auditors, Nowlen, Holt &
Miner, P.A. will expire on September 30, 2010 and this agreement is a
continuation of their services through the year 2013. He said Mr.
Randolph has reviewed the contract for legal sufficiency and the Auditor
has not added to the contract fee. Commissioner Wheeler moved and
Commissioner Anderson seconded to accept Mr. Thrasher's recommendation
to renew the contract for Auditing Services with Nowlen, Holt & Miner,
P.A. There was no further discussion. All voted AYE.
