Item O8 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Meeting Date: July 17, 2013 Division: County Administrator
Bulk Item: Yes x No Department:
Staff Contact Person/Phone#: Lisa Tennyson x4444
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval to submit County projects for RESTORE Act funding in
Local and Consortium Pots.
ITEM BACKGROUND: In preparation for the availability of RESTORE Act "local pot" funding,
staff has identified three projects to potentially be submitted, on behalf of Monroe County BOCC, for
RESTORE Act local pot funding: storm water, canal restoration, and mooring fields.
The size and number of these requests was limited in consideration of the potential funding that will
be available in the local pot(mid-range estimate is $11 M), and the number of other potential applicants
seeking funding from this pot. Another consideration for submitting these projects is that if funded,
local pot funding will serve as "local match" bolstering our federal pot requests for these projects; and
potential consortium pot requests for the same projects.
Staff has also begun to identify potential projects for the "consortium pot." (We do not know when
this funding, and how much funding, will be available in this pot yet.)
A matrix of identified local and consortium projects is attached. Capital Improvement Project
worksheets are attached for each project, providing a brief project description.
Also, a spreadsheet of projects submitted to date for all Mon-roe County projects across all available
funding pots is also attached.
PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION:
• May 15, 2013 BOCC reviewed project selection criteria and requested that the Committee consider
them.
• March 20, 2013 BOCC approved its six appointees to Committee; the five municipalities have also
appointed their representatives to Committee.
• February 20, 2013 BOCC adopted Resolution 094-2013 creating Monroe County Restore Act
Advisory Committee, and its purpose, duties, and responsibilities.
• September 21, 2012 BOCC approval of Inter-local agreement to join the RESTORE Act Gulf Consortium;
• September 21, 2012 BOCC selection of Mayor Neugent as representative and Commissioner Rice as the
alternate representative to the RESTORE Act Gulf Consortium.

NOTES:
Funding availability and amounts have not yet been determined.
The limited number and size of these proposed requests are based on the anticipated size of the local pot
(mid-range estimate is$11M) and the number of other applicants.
The proposed water quality projects for the local pot, if funded, may serve as local match for our federal
and consortium requests.
The "consortium pot" has not opened yet, and no date is currently anticipated, but we would like to start
identifying potential projects. Above are the projects identified todate.
C|P Detail Sheets follow for the above projects.

PROJECT NAME: Keys-Wide Mooring Field Project
PROJECT NUMBER:
PROJECT LOCATION: Keys-wide
ACCOUNT NUMBER:
PROJECT INFORMATION
DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
Monroe County is addressing vessel impacts in unmanaged anchorages by implementing a Keys-wide
system of mooring fields. Mooring fields are a proven method of reducing anchoring impacts by
eliminating the use of traditional ground tackle,requiring sewage pumpouts,and providing appropriate
shoreside service facilities,as well as reducing derelict and abandoned vessels. Mooring fields will
provide convenient,environmentally sound infrastructure for both cruising and local boaters. Mooring
fields are proposed for Jewfish Creek,Buttonwood Sound and Boca Chica Basin(see attached proposal)
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS I
The County is currently pursuing the implementation of a public/private partnership mooring field. The
cost for Design/Permitting($250,000)and Construction($250,000)of that mooring field,already
approved and underway,will serve as match funding for the Restore Act funding request for two
additional mooring fields.
