Background/History. During 2003 and 2004, the Town Council was involved in a series of meetings to address traffic on Indiantown Road which resulted in a document entitled, the Jupiter Area Study. The Town council was also working to lure Scripps Florida to the Town. To facilitate this, the Town Council discussed the creation of zoning regulations which would be complimentary to Scripps Florida and to set aside land for the Town’s build out of hi-tech business and technology uses. Eventually, the Town Council enacted the I-4 (Industrial, High Technology Limited) zoning district (see Attachment A) on December 21, 2004 (see Attachment B). Thereafter, on April 21, 2009, the Town Council rezoned 90.9 acres of the 93.5+/- acre DDR property to I-4 zoning (see Attachment C, D and E). The rezoning did not include 2.6+/- acres abutting the Jupiter Community Park that was dedicated to the Town. At the same meeting, the Town Council denied DDR’s application to rezone this same 90.9 acres of DDR’s property to the Industrial, General (I-2) zoning district (see Attachment E). On December 21, 2010, the Town Council renamed the I-4 district to “Industrial, High Technology and Employment Center” and modified the uses permitted therein (see Attachment F). The denial of DDR’s rezoning application was the impetus for DDR’s property rights claim. Through mediation the Town agreed to enter into the Development Agreement to expand the uses in the I-4 Zoning District. The additional uses were agreed to by the Council to allow several commercial uses in the I-4 Zoning District pursuant to the Development Agreement. It is important to note that any use included in a Development Agreement must be consistent with the Future Land Use assigned by the Comprehensive Plan to the property. The rationale the Council accepted to permit commercial uses with the Comprehensive Plan’s General Industrial Land Use designation was that the limited number of commercial uses would be complementary commercial uses of a business park or employment center. The Town Council held several public meetings wherein it discussed with DDR’s representatives and P&Z Director, Xxxx Xxxxxxx, and Town Attorney, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, the commercial uses DDR proposed. After several public meetings, the Council and DDR agreed to a Development Agreement which, included some, but not all of the property owner’s proposed “complementary” commercial uses. On March 15, 2011, the Town Council approved a Development Agreement between the Town of Jupit...

Background/History. The TAP grant program was established in 1988 by Wisconsin Act 339 and modeled after the national Treatment Alternatives to Street Crime (TASC) programs and later renamed Treatment Accountability for Safer Communities initiated under the Drug Abuse Office and Treatment Act of 1972. TASC programs were designed to divert drug-involved offenders into appropriate community-based treatment programs by linking the legal sanctions of the criminal justice system to treatment for substance use issues, holding offenders involved in both systems accountable through the implementation of client- specific case management. As justice involved individuals were directed to treatment, success in treatment could be taken into consideration at time of sentencing. These programs initially focused on pretrial diversion of first time offenders, yet quickly expanded to reach all drug-involved individuals that the courts were willing to divert. Today, TASC programs serve as a court diversion mechanism or as a supplement to probation or other justice-system sanctions and procedures. In addition to being an effective program model, TASC methods are utilized by programs or systems attempting to manage drug-involved offenders as they occupy places in both justice and treatment programming. In 1989 the Wisconsin Department of Health Services established Wis. Admin. Code ch. DHS 66 to implement a Treatment Alternative Program (TAP) and provide grants to local agencies to support substance use treatment options for justice involved individuals to be used in lieu of incarceration. While the exact rates of inmates with substance use disorders (SUDs) is difficult to measure, the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics reports that nationally more than half (58%) of state prisoners and two-thirds (63%) of sentenced jail inmates met the criteria for drug dependence or abuse. Another 20% percent, while not meeting criteria for a SUD, were under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of their crime. Female inmates were more likely than male inmates to have met criteria for drug dependence or abuse. Nationally, about 54% of state prisoners and 61% of sentenced jail inmates incarcerated for violent offenses met the DSM-IV criteria for drug dependence or abuse. Nearly half of all state prisoners and sentenced jail inmates who were incarcerated for property offenses committed the crime to get money for drugs or to obtain drugs. Although those with violent offenses make up t...
Background/History. Interdev has provided IT support to the City of Forest Park for the past four years as a Managed ServiceProvider to help supplement the City’s internal IT staff. Interdev is able to provide resources that are either not economical or difficult to maintain as a single entity with a small IT department. This updated agreement better aligns with the needs of the City as we will continue to receive the key services an MSP can provide better than we can, while also eliminating from the agreement those services we can provide better as an internal department. The updated contract reduces the support agreement costs by roughly $6000 a month and also changes from the current 36 month agreement to a 12 month agreement with an annual renewal option. Cost: $ Budgeted for: x Yes No Reduction in cost of roughly $6000/month None
Background/History. The Amended and Restated Delegation Agreement approved by the Board on September 18, 2007 was accepted by NERC and filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on October 30, 2007. On March 21, 2008, FERC conditionally accepted the Amended and Restated Delegation Agreement, but required Texas RE make certain modifications to Attachments 1 and 2 of Exhibit D (the Texas RE Hearing Process and the Rules of Procedure to be used for federal enforcement hearings held at the Public Utility Commission of Texas) and Exhibit E (Funding) by July 18, 2008. FERC’s required modifications to the Exhibit D Attachments are primarily “clean-up,” to make certain definitions consistent with the pro forma NERC Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement Program (CMEP) definitions. FERC also requires Texas RE to exclude breaches of confidentiality from the “hold harmless” provision in the Texas RE Rules of Procedure for hearings, in accordance with the pro forma CMEP requirements. FERC does not require any modifications to the unique Hearing Process for the ERCOT Region. FERC’s required modifications to Exhibit E are to (1) address the obligations of Texas RE and ERCOT to properly transfer the Electric Reliability Organization (ERO) fee to NERC, and (2) confirm appropriate financial safeguards are in place for funds that ERCOT collects from Market Participants in the ERCOT Region. In order to avoid a separate FERC filing by ERCOT (to confirm its agreements regarding the billing and collection functions relating to the ERO fee), Texas RE proposes that ERCOT sign an attachment to Exhibit E, agreeing to the required financial safeguards, and to timely transfer the ERO funds it collects to NERC. NERC has accepted this proposal. Texas RE has no objections to any of the revisions required by FERC and has made the required modifications to Attachments 1 and 2 of Exhibit D, and Exhibit E. In addition, because FERC’s March 21st Order held that the ERCOT Bylaws would not become “rules” (and FERC would only need to approve modifications to the portions of the ERCOT Bylaws that are relevant to Texas RE functions), Texas RE can remove the note at the top of Exhibit B, Governance. The Amended and Restated Delegation Agreement (with redlines showing the changes to Exhibits B, D, and E) is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Texas RE needs to finalize the amendments to the Delegation Agreement and provide the Board-approved Amended and Restated Delegation Agreement to NERC by June 1, 2008. T...

Background/History. In July of 1997, Allegro and its parent company, Sanken, were in the process of developing similar technologies as part of their product development efforts. These technologies were to be derived from [***] BCD technology for applications in the automotive and office automation industries. Pursuant to a management decision, Allegro and Sanken shared information and cooperated in planning the development of the new technologies. The parties ultimately decided to build the new technologies from the starting point of certain technology developed by Allegro and Sanken prior to July of 1997. Thereafter, development proceeded along two separate paths as each party intended to have different applications specific to their market. In the case of Allegro, the new technology was known as ABCD3 and was intended for [***] capability, whereas Sanken's new technology was known as SBCD3 and was intended for [***] capability. After July of 1997, Allegro and Sanken coordinated their research and development activities. Their relevant new technologies of ABCD3 and SBCD3 were developed by cross-exploitation of each party's know-how, information, and assistance; however, the parties separately paid for their respective development costs. It was ultimately determined, by way of an independent valuation, that at the time of such technology exchange the value of Allegro's technology was approximately $[***] and the value of Sanken's technology was approximately $[***]. As a result, it was agreed that Sanken would recognize receipt of a net benefit of $[***] to be compensated to Allegro. The parties now wish to memorialize their understanding concerning this matter, and provide for a transfer of the applicable technology in exchange for a monetary payment.
