Item 9 - First Reading of the Amended and Restated Solid Waste Ordinance. The various
St. Johns County ("County") ordinances on the management, collection, and disposal
of Solid Waste and Recyclable Materials were last comprehensively reviewed and
revised in 1999, which resulted in the adoption of the consolidated Solid Waste
Ordinance, Ord. No. 1999-27. The Solid Waste Ordinance has since been amended
and further updated, including in Ord. No. 2006-98, leading again to multiple
operative ordinances in the area of solid waste. The Solid Waste Department,
meanwhile, continues to monitor developments in the relevant statutes and
regulations and to identify efficiencies and other practical considerations that require
further revision of the Solid Waste Ordinance. To eliminate the patchwork of
ordinances relating to solid waste, staff proposes that the Board adopt an ordinance
that would address the statutory and practical considerations and serve as the
comprehensive Solid Waste Ordinance. This proposed ordinance would regulate the
management, collection, and disposal of Solid Waste and Recyclable Materials within
St. Johns County, including solid waste collection franchises, harmonize the
conflicting language and requirements of the existing solid waste ordinances, and
update guidelines and standards. The proposed ordinance, including any revisions
the Board may direct staff to make at this July 18, 2017 meeting, will be presented
for second reading and potential adoption by the Board at a future meeting.

Item 10 - Public Hearing * Second Reading of Amendments to the St. Johns County
Animal Code. At its June 20, 2017 meeting, the Board heard the first reading of
proposed amendments to the St. Johns County Animal Code. The proposed
amendments, drafted as a repeal-and-replace of the current Animal Code, would (1)
bring the Animal Code provisions on aggressive and dangerous animals in line with
recent statutory changes, (2) remove language regarding an expired feral cat pilot
program, (3) clarify procedures for issuing warnings and citations and for contesting
and appealing citations, and (4) make certain formatting and structural changes for
clarity and consistency. During the June 20 meeting, the Board directed staff to
research a possible exemption from the provisions on aggressive animal proceedings
for certain incidents involving agricultural working dogs and, if appropriate, to
prepare draft language. The Board also directed staff to research and prepare draft
language expressly requiring Animal Control to consider the date of an alleged
animal control violation in determining whether to issue a citation. The revised draft
ordinance includes language addressing these two concerns.

Item 12 - FY 2018 Recommended County Budget Presentation. The annual County budget
process requires a number of steps, ranging from its preparation through adoption.
Florida Statutes (F.S. 129.03(3) and F.S. 200.065, Truth in Millage (“TRIM”)
requirements) specify that a tentative balanced County budget must be submitted to
the Board of County Commissioners as the next step in the budget process. At this
point in time, the FY 2018 recommended County budget has been balanced with
expenditures and adequate reserves within each County fund equal to projected fund
revenues. County Administration believes the recommended County budget
represents a funding level that can reasonably assure the achievement of St. Johns
County’s operational needs while minimizing the tax impact on its citizenry. A
follow-up Board meeting on the FY 2018 recommended County budget will be
scheduled for August 1, 2017, at which time, the Board will be asked to set the
tentative FY 2018 County millage rates in order to accomplish the required mailing of
notices of proposed property taxes under TRIM. For practical purposes, once the
tentative millage rates are set, they can still be decreased by the Board, but not
increased.
