This directory will be available in the coming months throughout the county and accessible on-

line at www.martinveterans.org. If you are a veteran owned business and/or offer veterans preference, please contact Lauren Mustelier, Martin Volunteers at 772-220-4472 ext. 228 or email LMustelier@martinvolunteers.org for inclusion in this directory.

Training grant helps veterans The Business Development Board of Martin County is presenting an important fast track manufacturing training program for local veterans. Offered by Indian River State College at the Paradigm Precision Regional Training Center, this grant program offers participants the opportunity to gain targeted skills for employment in the manufacturing sector and an opportunity to earn industry certification after completion of course work. The program is open to eligible veterans who reside in Martin County. The Vietnam Veterans Chapter 1041 will provide 50% of program costs per veteran as

a match to the BDBMC funding. “This program provides entry level knowledge for veterans that can be built on to further enhance their skills and marketability. This program also fills a void in Martin County’s growing and vibrant manufacturing base,” said Frank Tidikis, Vietnam Veterans Chapter 1041. Approved by the Board of County Commissioners in May, the first program launched last week and we are accepting candidate applications for upcoming day and evening programs. Call the Business Development Board at 772-221-1380 for more information.

Local ROTC trains high schoolers to be citizen leaders The Martin County High School Air Force JROTC program has been active for over 20 years with enrollment of over 200 cadets. Retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Rick Mosby and Command Chief Master Sergeant Rod Hartsook, who have over 50 years active duty experience, build better citizens, instill responsibility, and enhance character. Through “curriculum in action” cadets are challenged in numerous ways which enhance and build the aforementioned objective areas. However, most of the development comes in the classroom, on the drill pad, or while engaged in various school and community activities. During the 20142015 school year, cadets volunteered over 3000 total hours in the community. In addition, the MCHS program has a very active Color Guard team that performed at over 50 events this year. The program also offers a running club, remote control drone/aircraft club, drill team, and an academic team. The MCHS program received the Air Force designation of “Distinguished Unit” for the past two years in a row. Established in 1993, the South Fork High School Army JROTC is the only

Army program in the county. Senior Army Instructor Lieutenant Colonel James Daly has been with SFHS since 1997. Joined by Army Instructor Command Sergeant Major Efrem Evans, at SFHS since 2012, they work to motivate young people to be better citizens and to develop leadership and citizenship skills. With enrollment of over 281 cadets, the program offers varsity level after Color Guard, Drill Team, Rifle Marksmanship Team and Raider Team (physical fitness). All teams are competitive and compete all across the state. JROTC Cadet Leadership Challenge is offered as a 5 day summer camp with high adventure training. Jensen Beach Air Force JROTC plans to build on last year’s successes and show why they were selected as a Distinguished Unit and reached the highest cadet enrollment of 164 in their history. Their Headquarters AFJROTC inspection in 2013 resulted in a rating of “Exceeds Standards” and became the new standard for the program. That was followed up with a Distinguished Unit with Merit which put JBHS in the TOP 25% of over 880 AFJROTC units around the world.

10 Best Jobs for Veterans

CareerCast Veterans Network has highlighted the 10 best jobs for veterans transitioning from active duty to the civilian workforce. Veterans return home with diverse skill sets that can easily be applied to civilian workforce, whether in a managerial position, engineering role or growing industry like logistics and transportation. Looking at growing sectors, CareerCast has identified the top 10 sectors seeking those who served in the Armed Forces that match the skill sets that veterans have acquired during their years of service. Administrative Services Manager The team-building and oversight skills required for the job should make for an easy transition. Construction Program Manager The construction industry has been recruiting from sources such as the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, and the Final Rules that went into effect last year provides disabled veterans more opportunities with federal contractors. Emergency Medical Technician Many active duty servicemen and women gain experience as emergency medical technicians, and Florida offers the Military Skills Waiver test for certification. Heavy & Tractor-Trailer Truck Driver The BLS estimates that the trucking industry is expanding extensively since 2010, and legislation passed by Congress in late 2012 eases restrictions on licensing for veterans. Industrial Engineering Technician The nation’s top energy companies have expressed great interest in hiring returning veterans, due to their efficiency, exposure to heavy equipment, and for some who have training as engineers. Industrial Production Manager Some of the top American manufacturing companies created the Get Skills to Work as a way to recruit veterans for jobs in industrial production. Paralegal and Legal Assistants A career path for veterans due to their ability to learn on the job and continuing growth in the field. Software Engineer Servicemen and women who worked in information technology acquired skills that can easily be transferred to the corporate environment. Telecommunications Equipment Installer and Repairer Military technicians who have worked with their branch’s highly sophisticated telecommunications equipment rank among the most qualified for this civilian job. Training and Development Manager The Armed Forces emphasize problem solving techniques and crisis management that can make veterans invaluable developers of talent at a company. Approximately 17,000 Veterans live in Martin County of which 50% are retired or have left the workplace. Martin County is home to over 500 unemployed veterans…help us put our Veterans back to work!

Indiantown site development Local chocolatier wins contract awarded to minority international awards women-owned firm

Skyfarm Strategic Capital, a Miamibased diversified development and acquisition company, today announced that it has awarded PRP Construction a multi-million dollar contract for the site development of Florida Commerce Park, a 100-acre industrial park in Martin County.

PRP Construction is a South Florida minority women-owned business involved in road building, excavation and site-work. Florida Commerce Park, located in Indiantown, is one of the largest industrial developments ever undertaken in Martin County. The park is fast-tracked with “permit-ready parcels” so businesses can begin vertical development immediately following initial infrastructure work. PRP Construction will begin site development immediately, working alongside Mancil’s Complete Sitework, a premier regional earthwork contracting firm.

“PRP Construction and Mancil’s are well qualified to deliver on our aggres-

sive site-timelines, which will help enable businesses to be up and operating at Florida Commerce Park in less than a year,” said Jeremy Shapiro, Director of Corporate Real Estate Development for Skyfarm Strategic Capital. Florida Commerce Park is situated at a crossroads of commerce in South Florida. The industrial park is located in a secure, inland location, adjacent to CSX’s main rail line and critical intermodal roadway systems, and the park is within close driving distance to ports in Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Furthermore, the park is situated in a strong path of regional growth, providing easy access for companies operating within Florida. The park also features exceptional broadband capacity and uninterrupted and redundant clean energy sources. Peggy Sheltra, President of PRP Construction, stated, “Indiantown is like a diamond in the rough that has not been fully developed, and this industrial park is the right asset that will bring the area to polished prominence.”

These volunteers operate two help desks located in Stuart and Indiantown. The volunteers are available to assist residents and business owners with finding new Florida-friendly plantings, starting a garden, planting trees, identifying plants and pests, and managing

their landscapes in a sustainable manner. Master Gardeners provide one-on-one consultations and can analyze plant, soil and insect samples. This assistance is also provided to local landscapers and growers in partnership with extension agents from UF/IFAS. The Florida Yard and Neighborhoods Program offers information on horticulture, regional plant life and yard maintenance. This program consists of an installed vegetable garden area, including hyrdroponics, hydro-Stackers, aeroponics, floating gardens and several other unique sustainable gardening techniques. Led by Fred Burkey, a Martin County native and second generation flower grower and horticulturist, the FYN program provides onsite demonstrations at the Stuart facility beginning in late September through April, in addition to year-round individual growing assistance, lectures and presentations.

USDA announces funding for green projects ranchers and small businesses conduct energy audits and operate renewable energy projects.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that rural agricultural producers and small business owners can apply for resources to purchase and install renewable energy systems or make energy efficiency improvements. These resources, made possible by the 2014 Farm Bill, help farmers, ranchers and other small business owners save money on energy bills, reduce dependence on foreign oil, support America’s clean energy economy, and cut carbon pollution.

The REAP program was created in the 2002 Farm Bill, building on historic economic gains in rural America over the past six years while achieving meaningful reform and billions of dollars in savings for taxpayers. Since 2009, USDA has awarded $545 million for more than 8,800 REAP projects nationwide. This includes $361 million in REAP grants and loans for more than 2,900 renewable energy systems. When fully operational, these systems are expected to generate more than 6 billion kilowatt hours annually – enough to power more than 5.5 million homes for a year. Visit usda.gov for more information.

“Developing renewable energy presents an enormous economic opportunity for rural America,” Vilsack said. USDA is making more than $280 million available to eligible applicants through the Rural Energy for America Program, offering grants for up to 25 percent of total project costs and loan guarantees for up to 75 percent of total project costs for renewable energy systems and energy efficiency improvements. USDA is offering a second type of grant to support organizations that help farmers,

The sky’s the limit for local grade-schoolers The students at J.D. Parker School of Science, Math and Technology have been working on projects such as engineering helicopters and rockets, the impact of aviation on wildlife, and engaging in simulated business ventures to create a commuter airline of the future. As part of “JDP Blast Off – Full STEAM Ahead,” a school-wide problem-based learning unit, students focus on all elements of science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics. The unit has been enhanced by a collaborative hands-on experience with Stuart Airport and Stuart Jet Center, funded through a grant by the Education Foundation of Martin County. Airport manager George Stokus worked with JDP educa-

tors to plan an exciting learning event at the local airport. Dan Capen, president of Stuart Jet Center, was also an active partner in planning and coordinating the project. Students learned about all phases of aviation, including aircraft maintenance and fueling, force and motion, and air traffic control. Students also learned from biologists about efforts to protect wildlife on the airfield and from a meteorologist regarding the impact of weather on air travel. Junior pilots donned a Go-Pro camera and put their own piloting skills to the test on a miniature aircraft. This special project prepares students to become competitive as future innovators in a global market.

Airport of the Year Martin County Airport/Witham Field has been named General Aviation Airport of the Year by the Florida Department of Transportation. General aviation airports from around the state are considered for this prestigious award based on the categories of safety, aesthetics and airport management. The winners were announced last month at the Florida Airports Council awards ceremony. “Everything from the condition of the runways to the professiona lism of airport staff is taken into account,” Airport Manager George Stokus said. “We are proud to have earned this award and to be recognized statewide as providing outstanding aviation transportation services.” A patriotic history As with many rural airports in the 1930s, Martin County Airport was just a grass landing strip and was originally known as MacArthur Field. With a pending war overseas in the 1940s, a group

of visionary, private landowners offered their property to the county as way to serve their county. The airport was later named Witham Field in honor of Homer Witham who was the first Stuart aviator to die in World War II. During the 1950’s and 1960’s Northrop Grumman leased the property, conducted flight-testing and manufacturing various aircraft for the US Navy. In 1994, Northrop Grumman downsized t hei r Wit ha m Field operation and much of the property was returned to Martin County, including the responsibility for the airport’s air traffic control tower. Although there is no commercial service, the airport is home to more than 200 private and business aircraft and serves most of the general aviation needs for Martin County and surrounding areas. The airport is also home to two fixed based operators, Atlantic Aviation and Stuart Jet Center, which act as local terminals for its users and those visiting Martin County.

Triumph Aerostructures – Vought Aircraft Division, adjacent to Witham Field, is a global leader in manufacturing and overhauling aerospace structures. Triumph designs, engineers, manufactures, and repairs a broad portfolio of aircraft components, accessories, and systems. With a facility in excess of 485,000 square feet, Triumph announced earlier this year the completion of an agreement with Spirit AeroSystems to assume production of Gulfstream G650 and G280 wing programs.

ITEM #6a

BDBMC Update Tim Dougher reviewed the BDBMC’s Draft Fiscal Year 2015/2016 budget, noting the organization will see a dramatic reduction in funding from Martin County. He added the funding will be solely derived from a portion of Business Tax Receipts. Tim discussed the organization’s private funding initiative, and introduced the program’s information for membership opportunities. Tim asked for consideration in supporting the BDBMC through this initiative. Larry Crary noted the IDA has the authority to promote business and a membership or donation to the BDBMC would be appropriate. Bill West added the IDA had approved a $10,000 donation to the BDBMC approximately three years ago but the contribution was never made. George Haley asked if the IDA can contribute $5,000 in this fiscal year and $5,000 in Fiscal Year 2015/2016. Further discussion was had regarding the private funding levels and membership benefits. George Haley made a motion to contribute $5,000 as a marketing contribution to the BDBMC in June of this fiscal year, and a second contribution in the amount of $5,000 in October, 2015. Dan Morris seconded the motion. The motion to approve a $10,000 marketing contribution to the BDBMC in June of this fiscal year and October of Fiscal Year 2015/2016 was approved unanimously. Sunshine Law Larry Crary led a discussion on Florida’s Government in the Sunshine law. Mr. Crary reviewed the documentation provided by Martin County and further discussed ethics of the sunshine law. He expressed to members that should a member have a particular item they wish to discuss with the board and/or cannot be present at a meeting, members may at any time communicate with staff. He added that staff can then distribute the information to members for the next scheduled meeting for discussion. Further discussion was had by members regarding specific guidelines for meetings and public comment. Mr. Crary noted that many boards implement public comment time limitations and the IDA may want to consider developing a standing rule policy for public comment. He noted Martin County has a 3 minute timeline. Dan Morris added that Sewall’s Point has a similar policy allowing for public comment at the beginning of meetings and limited to three minutes. Tim Dougher shared that the Business Development Board of Martin County also has a three minutes public comment policy at the beginning of board meetings. Tucker Johnson made a motion to adopt a public comment policy allowing for public comment at the beginning of each meeting limited to three minutes per speaker. Dan Morris seconded the motion. The motion to adopt a Public Comment policy passed unanimously. Mr. Crary expressed that he is available, as well as the County Attorney’s office, for any questions or concerns regarding the sunshine law if any member should need in the future. The IDA members executed their sunshine certification documentation. Audit Joseph Grasso, auditor from Hill Barth & King, presented the IDA’s Fiscal Year 2013/2014 financial audit.
