County Attorney Dylan Reingold introduced the item by informing that the 2020  
Census data officially had been released. He outlined the next steps and criteria in  
the redistricting process, as approved at the August 17, 2021 Board meeting.  
Attorney Reingold made mention that there had been no input from the Board,  
and reminded the public that the County was not district sensitive; any citizen  
could vote for any prospective Commissioner regardless of their address.  
Information Technology Director Dan Russell introduced Paige Lester, GIS  
Analyst, who created the three (3) redistricting proposals. Using PowerPoint  
slides, Ms. Lester reviewed the criteria, drivers for change, and provided analysis  
of the redistricting maps.  
The Commissioners gave their initial impressions of the proposals, and agreed to  
weigh public comments before making any decisions. The Board also dispelled  
the rumor that the Gifford neighborhood would be divided.  
The Chairman called for a recess at 10:33 a.m., and resumed the meeting at  
10:46 a.m. with all members present.  
The Chairman opened the public hearing.  
The following County residents addressed the Board with their  
concerns/suggestions:  
Anthony Brown  
Ed Dodd, Mayor, Sebastian  
Joseph Paladin, President, Black Swan Consulting  
Anthony Stewart, President, Southern Christian Leadership Conference  
Edward Dillard  
Pastor Myra Ferguson  
Valerie Brant-Wilson  
Freddie Woolfork  
Wilfred Hart  
Kevin Browning  
Wanda Mosley Scott  
Valerie Brant-Wilson read a text from Rashawn Green  
Robert Gelsimino  
There being no further speakers, the Chairman closed the public hearing.  
Commissioner Adams received clarification from Attorney Reingold that the  
schedule called for the final district boundaries to be voted on at the December 7,  
2021 meeting. Suggestions were made to have another meeting in advance of the  
final vote, and possibly a community outreach effort. Director Russell provided  
information regarding an app that would allow the Commissioners to examine  
different district scenarios.  
The Board entered into lengthy discussion of the proposals with consideration for  
public comments, and the goal of providing staff with clear direction. There was  
general agreement that the geography of the districts was more important than  
perfectly equalized population counts. The Commissioners then debated the pros  
and cons of having the barrier island in one district, as was preferred by some  
speakers who were concerned with socioeconomic disparity. The Board was in  
favor of splitting the barrier island due to the differing needs of the north and south  
beach areas, and to minimize the sprawl of District 5. Vice Chairman O'Bryan  
then suggested using Proposal 1 with modifications to keep the McAnsh Park  
neighborhood together, limit the City of Vero Beach to be encompassed by no  
more than two (2) Districts, and square off District 3. The Board reiterated that a  
Commissioner could serve any district.  
Discussion returned to the suggestion of additional meetings in advance of the  
December 7th deadline. The Board noted that several speakers who represented  
the Gifford neighborhood expressed a need for empathy for their concerns, and it  
was agreed that staff should conduct an informational meeting in Gifford. The  
Commissioners also requested to have the revised map of Proposal 1 brought  
back before the Board in advance of the December vote.  
Board consensus was reached to move forward with a modified Proposal 1 map,  
with the exception of Commissioner Moss who stated she was not yet ready to  
commit to any one proposal.  
A motion was made by Vice Chairman O'Bryan, seconded by Chairman  
Flescher, to approve Redistricting Proposal Map Number 1 with the following  
modifications: 1) lower the population's deviation from the average, if  
possible; 2) ensure the Municipalities are not split among more than two (2)  
Districts; 3) keep the McAnsh Park neighborhood in one (1) District, with the  
western boundary along 27th Avenue; and 4) square off District 3. The Board  
also directed staff to organize a presentation of the revised Redistricting  
Proposal Map 1 in the Gifford neighborhood, as well as returning before the  
Board to present the revisions in advance of the December 7, 2021 meeting.  
The motion carried by the following vote:

Finished Water Quality Audit Presentation from Kimley-Horn and Associates  
Recommended Action:

Attachments: Staff Report  
Finished Water Quality Audit Report  
Interim Utility Services Director Matthew Jordan presented the Finished Water  
Quality Audit report prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates (KHA) for the  
Indian River County Department of Utility Services (IRCDUS). He stated that  
the purpose of the audit was to evaluate the County's distribution system, water  
quality, and to address customers' concerns regarding corrosion and leaks in their  
plumbing.  
Nick Black, KHA, provided an overview of the County's water system, and  
concluded that IRCDUS was compliant with the provisions of the Safe Drinking  
Water Act (SDWA) which called for minimal amounts of corrosive elements such  
as lead and copper.  
Next, Dr. Steven Duranceau, PhD, examined the causal factors of copper pipe  
corrosion which he described as being a complex issue. Dr. Duranceau  
presented research and case studies, and listed possible causes of leaks such as  
electrical systems, lightning strikes, and thin-walled copper pipes. The report  
wrapped up with advice for IRCDUS to address residents' concerns.  
Director Jordan returned to summarize the report which showed that IRCDUS  
remained compliant with the SDWA and thresholds for mineral content, and that  
most plumbing failures occurred from issues related to construction and modern  
plumbing materials rather than corrosive water.  
Under discussion, the Board and staff discussed water quality, the lower caliber  
of modern plumbing materials, and complaints received from residents. Dr.  
Duranceau provided answers to questions regarding the effects of electrical  
charges, and plastic versus copper pipes.

A. Commissioner Joseph E. Flescher, Chairman  
21-0970  
14.A.1.  
Chapter 164 Mediation Update, October, 2021  
Discuss  
Recommended Action:  
Attachments: Commissioner's Memo  
Chairman Flescher opened discussion by describing the previous meeting with the  
City of Vero Beach (the City) on October 6, 2021. At the conclusion of that  
meeting, both the Chairman and the City's Mayor, Robert Brackett, agreed to  
return to their respective Board/Council with the question of whether the County  
should take over the water delivery system to the Town of Indian River Shores  
(the Shores).  
The Commissioner restated the County's position that it had no intention of taking  
the water service business from the City, and noted that the lack of detailed terms  
was an impediment to moving forward. He added that water service to County  
residents on the south end of the barrier island was still of concern due to supply  
line issues, and lack of rate protection. The Chairman requested input from the  
rest of the Board on whether to continue negotiations on the matter.  
Vice Chairman O'Bryan agreed to continue to share information with the City and  
the Shores, but felt it was premature to make a decision in the absence of a  
feasibility study and a realistic estimate of the costs involved in moving the City's  
water treatment plant. He also stated the importance of obtaining a rate  
protection agreement for south beach residents.  
County Administrator Jason Brown stated the County's goal was to avoid  
litigation, and to continue discussions. However, he observed that the decision to  
serve the Shores was not the County's to make, and the City would have to  
define terms before a commitment from the County could be given.  
Commissioner Moss stated her view that it was the County's responsibility to  
avoid litigation.  
Commissioner Adams expressed her frustration with the lack of progress during  
mediation, and observed that the City seemed intent on litigation rather than  
negotiation. Nonetheless, she was in favor of continuing efforts to resolve the  
matter.  
County Attorney Dylan Reingold sought direction for the next meeting which  
would be used to discuss the terms of a transfer, if continuing the discussions was  
approved.  
Commissioner Earman expressed exasperation at being pulled into the middle of  
an issue between the City and the Shores. That notwithstanding, he supported  
further talks with the City to obtain specific terms.  
Bob Auwaerter, Councilmember, Town of Indian River Shores, advised that  
County staff had been helpful in providing information for the Shores' feasibility  
study, clarified the terms of their franchise agreement with the City, and expressed  
skepticism of the City's estimated cost to relocate their water treatment plant.  
Board consensus was reached to continue negotiations with the City of Vero  
Beach.  
B. Commissioner Peter D. O'Bryan, Vice Chairman  
Request the Board consider directing the County Attorney to start the process to  
establish a Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) for the Oslo Park area to raise  
funds for future road paving projects  
21-0984  
14.B.1.  
Recommended Action:  
Discussion and give County Attorney direction to begin the formal process of  
establishing a MSBU for Oslo Park.  
Attachments: Commissioner's Memorandum  
Vice Chairman O'Bryan presented a proposal to establish a Municipal Service  
Benefit Unit (MSBU) to raise funds for road paving in the Oslo Park  
neighborhood, similar to a streetlight district already in effect for the area. The  
Vice Chairman used maps to illustrate the proposed roads and their priority. He  
requested support from the Board to direct staff to begin the process of planning  
and estimating costs.  
Director of Public Works Rich Szpyrka offered clarification to Commissioner  
Earman regarding a nearby unpaved road subject to flooding.  
County Attorney Dylan Reingold provided information on the timing and next  
steps to establish a MSBU. He also discussed seeking extensions from the  
Property Appraiser and Tax Collector to achieve a March 2022 deadline.  
Commissioner Adams received confirmation that there was no threshold for  
community support in this type of project, and advised tempering expectations  
regarding the time it would take to complete paving projects.  
Lonnie Ingram, Oslo Park resident, discussed the safety issues and long-standing  
attempts to pave roads in the area. He provided a petition of support signed by  
approximately 25 percent of residents in the neighborhood, noting that the  
majority of residents were renters. Commissioner Adams commented that she  
was satisfied with the level of resident support shown.  
County Administrator Jason Brown echoed Commissioner Adams' advice to be  
clear regarding what can be accomplished once the costs are known, and  
provided suggestions to manage expectations.  
A motion was made by Vice Chairman O'Bryan, seconded by Commissioner  
Earman, to direct the County Attorney and Public Works Director to initiate  
the process of creating a Municipal Service Benefit Unit (MSBU) for the Oslo  
Park area to raise funds for future road paving projects, with a timeline that  
would allow final approval in March 2022. The motion carried by the  
following vote:  
5 -

Commissioner Earman, and Commissioner Moss
