As a resident of Muse, a small community in Glades County northwest of LaBelle, I have had the pleasure of working closely with Mr. Threewits in his capacity as Glades County Administrator on a number of important projects. One project has involved seeking grant and legislative funds to construct a community building in the Muse area. My role in this effort was as President of the Board of Directors of the Muse Community Association. As a result of Mr. Threewits' cooperation with the Muse community, a grant application was completed but, unfortunately, not funded and a legislative appropriation was made by the Florida House and Senate. Also, unfortunately, this was one of many legislative items vetoed by the Governor. The ability of Mr. Threewits to help accomplish these efforts, which increases the likelihood of this project ultimately becoming funded, was noteworthy. In another capacity, I serve as the Glades County representative on the State of Florida District 8 Health and Human Services Board of the Department of Children and Families. When the state tried to close a local community mental health center without cause in an effort to streamline services in a way that would have been detrimental to the citizens of Glades County, Mr. Threewits cooperated with my effort to actively advocate to stop this closure and, ultimately, this problem was corrected. Additionally, I am president of a non-profit organization, Floraglades Foundation, which is located in Glades County. In this role, I have helped in the acquisition and protection of 400 acres of wilderness land in the western part of the county through obtaining donation of land and placing it under appropriate deed restrictions. I have also explored donating or selling a parcel of land to the county for government use. In both of these regards, the advice and cooperation of Mr. Threewits has been extremely helpful. Finally, I was active in advocating for the creation of an emergency medical services station in western Glades County. This project was successfully funded and is now a reality largely due to Mr. Threewits' contribution. In all of my dealings with Mr. Threewits, he has impressed me as having the highest level of integrity, competence, and interpersonal skills. I unhesitatingly recommend him for any position for which he qualifies. Thank you. Sincerely, Harris Friedman, Ph.D. (941) 946-07 1 1 FAX: (941) 946-2988 P O. BOX 399 City of Moore Haven MOORE HAVEN, FL 33471 July 19, 1999 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN RE: Jim Threewits Dear Sir or Madam: Please be advised that I have had the pleasure of working with Jim Threewits for the past year. Jim Threewits, as county manager, and I, as city clerk, work directly with the City -County Public Works Authority, a board composed of City Council members and Glades County Commissioners. This authority is committed to developing a unified plan for the sewer system that will be beneficial to our community. Jim Threewits brought to the Authority his knowledge and expertise in the development of such a system and has acted as liaison with the various vendors and governmental agencies to meet all federal and state standards of all aspects of the sewer system. It is within this year that we have completed enough phases of the system to allow us to actually begin using the sewer system in our schools and some surrounding businesses. Jim Threewits maintains professionalism, is well organized, and maintains focus on the situation at hand. It is these necessary qualities that allow Mr. Threewits to deal in a straight- forward manner and maintain his effectiveness with a board composed of ten varying personalities. It is my belief that any public or private entity would benefit from employing Mr. Threewits act in a managerial position, If I can iutswer any questions you may have, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned. Sincerely, Carmen Whitney City Clerk CW/mlc July 19, 1999 To Whom It May Concern: We have known Mr. Jim Threewits for over a year as he has carried out the duties and responsibilities of Glades County's County Manager. We were present at his interviews for this position with the County Commission and were impressed with his demearibr, courtesy, and evident professional knowledge of how our present system of government should work, both on a county and state level. His education, experience and training clearly demonstrated that he was the person for this job. Speaking for myself, Luther Oehlbeck, I spent four years on the Planning, Building, Zoning and Special Exception County Board and had occasion to talk with Mr. Threewits regarding various problems. My contact with him was handled with utmost courtesy, interest in the problem and proper dispatch. The fact that Mr. Threewits may be in the en-i ployment market in the immediate future reflects most disparagingly on the actions of three of our county commissioners, who acted illegally and extrernaly ill-advisedly for the county. If there is any question in any interviewer's mind about the true facts regarding his possibly being in the employment market pleasd.let me refer you to the Hendry -Glades Sunday News, July 18, 1999, for a most comprehensive, detailed and informative report on exactly how it was proposed that the position of county manager be abolished. As you will see, there were absolutely no verifiable charges against Mr. Threewits' performance in his position. I, Barbara Oehlbeck, a journalist, wrote a highly detailed profile on Mr. Threewits several months after he had been in office. I dug into his background, covering his education, experience, and training, then moved on to and through his first months in office, and at every juncture 1 was inspired that we —the citizens of Glades County-- had such expertise working for Lis. Not only does he have extraordinary ability and all but limitless energy and drive, he is intellectually honest. The bottom line in my mind was and still is: how can Glades County have been so fortunate as to get someone of Mr. Threewits caliber for a county not known for professional aggressiveness in hiring people to "Captain" our ship! If you whomever you may be —choose to cast his lot with yours, be assured that it is your gain and Glades County's loss, a black day in the history of a county which had been effectively turned around and was going in the right direction under the leadership of Jim Threewits.

Center Circle Jensen Beach, Florida, 34957 June Is, 1999 Re: letter of recommendation - Richard Donnell To whom it may concern, The purpose of this letter is a recommendation for Mr. Richard Donnell. I have known Mr. Bonne]] for over 8 years. My knowledge of Mr. Donnell is a result of work which he performed as a contractor on several construction projects in which my company, Florida Land and Agriculture, lac., designed and acted as the design engineer and construction manager. Mr. Donnell performed his work on time and within budget. He always conducted himself in a professional manner and was willing to give the extra effort to get the job done. He was able to react positively to unusual circumstances that would sometimes arise and focus on the solution rather than dwell on the problem. My impression of Mr. Donnell was that he acted as a team player and his contributions were well received by his peers. He was willing to come early and stay late and performed at a high level of competence. I can recommend Mr. Donnell without reservation. If you have any further questions regarding this recommendation please contact the at your earliest convenience at (561) 871-7662 or (561) 334-5353. Sincerely, Gary N. Roderick Clemons Construction Company P. O. Box 613 Okeechobee, Fla. 34973 July 5,19" To Whom It May Concern: Richard P. Bonneff was employed by my husband's construction company from Oct. 1978-1988 and again by Clemons Ranch from July 1991- Oct. 1993. During Mr. Bonnell's tenure with our companies, he preformed the following duties for the construction company: 1. Bid jobs which included tabulating bids. 2. Ran jobs that included overseeing 8 - 10 men crews. 3. Billed jobs which included keeping up with eq)enses and tabulating monthly draws. 4. Worked with engineers. 5. Did job layouts and blueprint reading. 6. Did surveying. 7.Operated and was responsible for proper maintenance on backhoes, draglines, cranes, Pans, bulldozers, graders, and loaders. 8. Installed hundreds of culverts. When we sold our company to Rockaway, Mr. Bonnell went to work for them. After approximately three years, he returned to work for us at the ranch and supervised maintenance there including but not limited to: 1. Replacing culverts. 2. Replacing fence. 3. Feeding and care of livestock. I can truthfully say that my husband, Oscar Clemons, regarded Ricky as his most dependable, trusted and loyal employee and that he showed a much greater knowledge of an aspects of the business world than his limited college courses would suggest.

This amendment will serve as a recapitulation of our agreement for the two year renewal period. We arc pleased to confirm our understanding of the services we (AUDITORS) are to provide for the City of Okeechobee (CITY) for the three years ending September 30, 2001. We will audit the general purpose financial statements of the City of Okeechobee as of and for the years ending September 30, 1999 and 2MO. The document AUDITORS submit to CITY will include the following additional information that will not be subjected to the audit procedures applies: Summary of Insurance coverage; schedule of assessed values, tax levies and rates; and schedule of certain revenue. The audits will be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing StandAWs issued by the Comptroller General of the Untied States; and will include tests of the accounting records of the CITY and other procedures we consider necessary to enable us to express an unqualified opinion that the financial statements are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to report on the Schedule of State Financial Assistance and on CiTY's compliance with laws and regulations and its internal controls as required under Gent Auditintr Standards. If in the course of the audit AUDITORS discover factors which would prevent them from issuing an unqualified opinion on these statements, beyond the exception for fixed assets, as has been in the past, AUDITORS will discuss the qualification with appropriate management. AUDITORS' procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the accounts, and may include tests of the physical oxistence of inventories, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals, creditors, and financial institutions. AUDITORS will also request curtain written representations from CITY about the financial statements and related matters.

Also, AUDITORS will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. However, because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because AUDITORS will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that the material errors, irregularities, or illegal acts, including fraud or defalc:utiuns, may exist and not be detected by AUDITORS. AUDITORS will advise CITY, however, of any matters of that mature that come to our attention. The responsibility as auditors is limited to the period covered by the audit and does not extend to matters that might arise during any later periods for which AUDITORS are not engaged as auditors. It is understood that CITY will provide AUDITORS with the basic information required for the audit and that CITY is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that information. AUDITORS will advise CITY about appropriate accounting principles and their application and Will assist in the preparation of the CITY's financial statements, but the responsibility for the financial statements remains with CITY. This responsibility includes the maintenance of adequate records and related internal control structure policies and procedures, the selection and application of accounting principles, and the safeguarding of assets. The CITY understands that this agreement does not include services to be rendered for the CITY's three pension funds, (retirement system and employee pension trust funds). Our audit will not include fiduciary funds or disclosure items in the financial statements related to those funds. References will be included in the AUDITORS' report on the responsibilities of the pension auditors. The CITY understands that the fee quoted is based upon no significant changes in operations of the CITY, adequate internal control and proper maintenance of accounting records. Should the CITY be required to obtain an audit under OMB Circular A-133 ("Single Audit"), we will negotiate an addition to our fee to cover these additional procedures. The CITY agrees that additional time incurred related to any significant changes in operations, material weaknesses in internal control or significant deficiencies in the accounting records will be billed separately at our standard hourly rates. It is understood that the CITY's employees will type all cash or other confirmations AUDITORS request and will locate all invoices, agreements, and canceled checks selected by AUDITORS for testing.

However, during the audit, if AUDITORS become aware of such reportable conditions or ways that they believe management practices can be improved, they will communicate them to CITY in a separate letter. AUDITORS expect to begin each audit on approximately September 15, and to issue the report no later than March 29 of the following year. Fees for the audits of the financial statements discussed above will not exceed $16,000 each year. A payment of $8,000 will be due by December 31 each year. The remaining fee will be due when the AMLqg}LLocal Govemment FinandgLRep9d and the CITY's Annual Audit Report are complete and presented to the CITY- Either party may terminate the agreement with notice before July 1 each year. Additional fees due to an early termination by the CITY will be $2,000 for the second year of the contract. AUDITORS agree to present to CITY one completed Aytual local Government Financial Report and fifteen bound and one master copy of the CITY Annual Audit Report on or before March 29. Failure of AUDITORS to present the above named reports on or before March 29 will result in liquidated damages as follows: From March 30 to April 30 $5/Day From May 1 to June 30 $100/Day From July 1 and Beyond $150/Day CITY will subtract the liquidated damages from the final payment to AUDITORS. If AUDITORS should encounter a problem with the audit reasoruably beyond their control where the March 29 deadline cannot be met, the CITY may extend the deadline date that is agreeable to both parties and waive the liquidated damages through the agreed upon new deadline date. The CITY will not unreasonably withhold the extension of the deadlines. Reasonable cause for delays would include, among others, such issues as failure of timely responses or representations from actuaries, attorneys, other CPA firms involved with the CITY's financial statements or problems with the financial record keeping of the CITY.

The effects of this problem will vary from system to system and may adversely affect an entity's operations as well as its ability to prepare financial statements. An audit of financial statements conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards is designed to detect whether an entity's information systems are Year 2000 compliant. Further, we have no responsibility with regard to your efforts to make your information systems, or any other systems, such as those of your significant suppliers, service providers or any other third parties, Year 2000 compliant or provide assurance on whether you have addressed or will be able to address all of the affected systems on a timely basis. Huwevrr, fur the benefit of management, we may choose to communicate matters that come to our attention relating to the Year 2000 issue.

Bradshaw Date: August 11, 1999 Re: Amending the Residency Requirement to include Buckhead Ridge After discussion regarding the Personnel Policy Manual residency requirement, City staff recommends amending the residency requirement in Chapter 11, Qualifications #3, page 8 to include the Buckhead Ridge area. Amending the Personnel Policy Manual will correct past residency requirement discrepancies. In addition to this, residents of Buckhead Ridge are essentially members of the Okeechobee community frequenting Okeechobee area businesses, having Okeechobee addresses and telephone numbers as well as utilizing OUA services and Okeechobee County Public schools. As such, this area should be included in the policy manual. As per City policy, this amendment can be adopted by a motion. • CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MEMORANDUM To: Mayor, Council Members, and City Clerk From: Robert J.
