8. 17353   9:01 a.m. Public Hearing for consideration of adopting an Ordinance creating the Graystone Estates Phase Two Subdivision Street Lighting Municipal Service Benefit Unit.

Recommendation: That the Board adopt and authorize the Chairman to sign the Ordinance creating the Graystone Estates Phase Two Subdivision Street Lighting Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU), and all related documents, and make the following findings of fact:

A. Lots in the District are specially benefited since street lighting not only increases the market value of an individual lot, but also increases safety in the District surrounding individual lots, and the ability of lot owners to use their individual lots after dark;

B. The benefit from improved street lighting varies according to the relative size of the affected lots. Residential lots benefit from improved street lighting uniformly because of the small variation in size throughout the District;

C. The non-ad valorem special assessments levied represent a fair and reasonable apportionment of the cost of the special benefit received by each lot, and do not represent a fair share of the cost of general governmental service provided to residents in the unincorporated areas of Escambia County; and

D. Lots which do not receive a special benefit have been and shall be excluded from the non-ad valorem special assessment for street lighting.

That the Board approve and authorize the County Administrator to sign the Amendment of Agreement for PD 17-18.022, Video Visitation Solutions, retroactive to December 9, 2019, which will result in the elimination of approximately $30,000 per year in expenditure for the Corrections Department.

PD 17-18.022 includes a cost from the vendor (Global Tel*Link) for their employee to maintain and repair the Video Visitation stations on an as-needed basis. On November 7, 2019, Global Tel*Link was awarded the agreement for PD 18-19.075, Inmate Telephone Services and their proposal included a full-time staff member to maintain and repair the phone systems. Since there would be a full-time staff member on-site, the proposal from Global Tel*Link for PD 18-19.075 included the waiving of the repair and maintenance fees related to PD 17-18.022.
