REPORTS:

City Manager

· Mr. Boucher reported that the Legislative Session began today. Council members received a narrative report from the Florida League of Cities covering the various proposed Legislative Bills. He stated that the League included their position statement with each narrative.

· Mr. Boucher reported that he, Mayor Randels, and the Recreation Director attended the Florida Department of Elder Affairs, Communities for a Lifetime Seminar, at the East Orange County Senior Center. Mr. Boucher then informed how 74 percent of Brevard County residents preferred a joint-use, senior and youth, Community Center. Ms. Roberts stated that the Business and Cultural Development Board recommended such a center for the City in the 2007 Redevelopment Plan. Mr. Boucher concluded that this was something to consider as the City conducts its Comprehensive Plan.

· Mr. Boucher stated that the Brevard County Lifeguard Report was distributed for Council’s review.

· Mr. Boucher stated that the Brevard County Sheriff’s Department Annual Report was also distributed for Council’s review.

· Mr. Boucher announced that SeaFest was coming to the Port and the Council was invited to attend the Opening Ceremony.

· Mr. Boucher invited the Council Members attending Legislative Days beginning on March 25^th to the Environmental Protection Summit planned for March 27^th and to please notify his office if they cared to extend their stay in Tallahassee for the Summit.

· Mr. Boucher reported that he notified the Council regarding the Villages of Seaport north entrance gate. He informed that Brevard County Traffic Engineering investigated the issue and reported that the entrance was not permitted as a permanent ingress/ egress for the Villages of Seaport. The Building Official had issued a permit for emergency access only. The County would subsequently conduct enforcement action with the Villages of Seaport with the City concurrence.

Ms. Roberts stated that she met with that community and the access was serving as a transportation relief value for the Villages of Seaport and Mystic Vistas communities. She also stated that in consideration of the safety issues along North Atlantic Avenue, there were also issues with Oak Park. If the Villages access gate were shut down, then additional traffic problems would follow. Ms. Roberts stated that at this point the access gate was working to benefit that community. In fairness, the City needed to provide relief for those communities if the access gate were closed.

Mr. Boucher explained that continued use of the access was a safety concern by Brevard County permitting. Mr. Nicholas stated that the Planning and Zoning Board discussed these access issues, which were in such close proximity to each other, as part of development concurrency. He stated further that perhaps a perimeter road or a traffic light would help control traffic in that area. Discussion followed on the current use of the gate. Mayor Pro Tem Hoog reminded that the gate was used during the Mystic Villas construction. Fire Chief Dave Sargeant replied to Ms. Roberts that the Fire Department put no restrictions on the use of the gate. The gate had to be siren activated with a battery backup which it has; however, the Fire Department had no authorization for the gate’s use. Mr. Boucher concluded that the County desired to notify the Villages of Seaport related to the unauthorized access and for Villages of Seaport to contact Traffic Engineering related to the process of making the access legal. Mayor Randels acknowledged a representative from Villages in the audience.

· Mr. Boucher informed that Architect’s Design Group was tasked to review joint-use purposes for the Library Meeting Room. Mr. Boucher replied to Ms. Roberts that the architect would begin to make assessments by the end of March. Mr. Petsos requested a way to quantify the Library Meeting Room use. Mr. Nicholas pointed out that evening meetings required Library staffing and evenings could a viable time for the City to use the room. Ms. Roberts asked if the City Manager had received an adequate response on funding related to services. Mr. Boucher replied that his discussion with the Library Director concluded that the County did not have a mechanism to provide actual operation costs. Mr. Nicholas explained how the County Libraries were linked under one system and the City contributed to the operation of that whole system; however, the main question was if the City were contributing a disproportionate share.

· Mr. Boucher announced that the City of Cocoa would host the Space Coast League of Cities dinner on Monday, March 10^th at the Cocoa Civic Center. Please notify his office if any Council Member planned to attend.

Staff

· Chief Dave Sargeant reported that the Cape Canaveral Volunteer Fire Department was notified from the Florida Emergency Management Agency that it was awarded the Safer Act Grant for additional personnel. The costs for the first year and the remaining year to the City and the Port would be $5,000 for three additional persons.

City Council

Council Member Roberts

· Ms. Roberts recommended a City Master Plan that would convey to the citizens the City’s plans for sidewalks, bikeways, street improvements, lighting, including underground lighting, and crosswalks. Ms. Roberts recommended addressing the Master Plan during the Visioning Session.

· Ms. Roberts raised the issue of hiring a City Planner and referred to the Business and Cultural Development Board’s comment that as time expired this was a missed opportunity for possible project funding. Ms. Roberts requested to place this on the next Agenda to take action. Mr. Boucher stated that he provided Economic Redevelopment Grant information to the Building Official and the City Planner for their review.

· Ms. Roberts requested a date for the Visioning Session. Mr. Boucher replied that he would schedule a meeting following the Legislative Session. He would schedule a Visioning Meeting for some time in late April.

· Ms. Roberts requested recycling bins for all City facilities. Mr. Boucher replied that staff would assure that this was done.

· Ms. Roberts recommended more frequent community policing and regular patrols monitoring the City’s Presidential streets. Mr. Petsos added the need for law enforcement interaction in the community.

· Ms. Roberts addressed the need for a review of the roles and responsibilities
of City Boards, interfaces among the respective Boards, and a new requirement
of biographical sketches for new Board members as well as interview sessions for Board re-appointments. Ms. Roberts requested a training refresher from the City Attorney for the City Boards and City Council.

· Ms. Roberts addressed the left-hand turn signal related to State Road A1A and Central Blvd. Mayor Randels replied that the County had turned down the project. Mr. Petsos informed that he contacted both the State Senator and State Representative on this issue.

· Ms. Roberts requested a status report on Resort Rentals. Mr. Morley replied
that he would distribute a report to the Council on the following day. Mr. Boucher pointed out that the change of use subsequently caused a change of density; therefore, a resident could not transition from a conforming to a non-conforming use status. Mr. Petsos requested a report on those of non-conforming status as well.

Council Member Nicholas

· Mr. Nicholas commended the Public Works, Streets/ Maintenance Department related to the well-kept condition of the Little League field.

Council Member Petsos

· Mr. Petsos thanked Mr. Bandish for the Sand Fence estimate cost; however he found it expensive. Mr. Petsos requested to use the Inmate Crew to help build the fences. He recommended placing the fences in the re-nourished beach areas. Mr. Petsos asked for Council’s consensus to pursue the project prior to Turtle Nesting season. Mr. Bandish stated that the estimate was based on using private individuals. He stated that the previous fences were constructed through an on-board carpenter which volunteers installed in Phase I. The National Emergency Grant workers constructed and installed Phase II. Mr. Boucher stated that the material cost was $18,500 and he recommended that the Council approve $20,000 to begin fabrication during March and April for installation in late April. Mr. Nicholas suggested year-round fence fabrication. Mayor Randels clarified the consensus for the City to purchase the lumber and begin fabricating the fences for installation prior to Turtle Nesting Season.

A motion was made by Mr. Nicholas and Mr. Petsos to Appropriate up to $20,000 to Begin Fabrication Work for the Sand Fence Project. The vote on the motion carried 5-0 with voting as follows: Mayor Pro Tem Hoog, For; Mr. Nicholas, For; Mr. Petsos, For; Mayor Randels, For and Ms. Roberts, For.

· Mr. Petsos addressed the community’s youth and the use of the Youth Center. He proposed a joint-use effort at the Youth Center with the Police Athletic League [PAL] for the City’s youth between ages 15-and18-years-old. Mr. Petsos replied to Mayor Randels that he would seek funding from the Brevard County PAL. He requested agreement from the Council. Mr. Lefever stated that the Youth Center was open from 3 PM to 6 PM after-school, weekdays and 12 Noon to 5 PM on Saturdays. Mr. Lefever informed that the Recreation Department staff was collaborating to separate the time frames for 10-to 14-year-olds and 15-to 18-
year-olds. Mr. Lefever agreed with Mr. Petsos’ concept to incorporate PAL with the Youth Center. Ms. Roberts stated her agreement after a previous meeting with Sharon Horton, Cape View Elementary School Principal, saying that the parents were seeking such a youth program. She also stated that Commander Scragg had expressed his support of this concept. Council Members stated their consensus for a joint-use effort at the Youth Center with PAL.

· Mr. Petsos thanked the Sheriff’s Office Precinct for the increased monitoring of the Youth Center. He also encouraged law enforcement personnel to interact more with the community’s youth.

Mayor Pro Tem Hoog

· Mayor Pro Tem Hoog addressed lighting along Thurm Blvd. and West Central Blvd. He informed that residents in that area continue to express concern over the area lighting.

· Mayor Pro Tem Hoog related on how a City Board Member responded to a direction from the Council and how that Board Member campaigned against an issue which the Council gave the Board to review. He stated that while a Board Member might have an opinion, he did not think it proper to publicly campaign against a project. Ms. Roberts responded that the Board Member was speaking
as a resident and made that position known from the beginning.

DISCUSSION:

7. Building Heights in Commercial Districts along State Road A1A.

Mayor Randels explained how the Planning and Zoning Board held several meetings for building height discussion. At their meeting on February 27^th, the Board recommended to City Council that the building height in the C-1 and C-2 zoning districts be limited to five-stories, but allowed an increase to 65-feet. Mayor Randels clarified that these zoning districts did not include ocean or river properties.

Ms. Jamie Coker of Miller, Legg and Associates, Inc., addressed the Council on behalf of City Planner, Todd Peetz. Ms. Coker pointed out how the maps in the City Council packet depicted an allowance in Section C-7 for 50-feet of height at 200-feet or greater from existing residential. Ms. Coker explained how the height varied at each footage from residential and explained the depiction of 55-feet of height at 300-feet or greater from residential, and 60-feet of height at 400-feet or greater from residential.

Mr. Art Berger, Contractor for the Sheldon Cove Project, explained how a 12-foot ceiling was proposed for the retail shops. These higher ceilings would sustain the ductwork and suspension as there were no load-bearing, interior partition walls as in condominiums and residences. Mr. Berger concluded that the planned ceiling heights were 12-to14-feet for the retail shops and 9-to10-feet in the Class A offices with a glass dome top. The total height compressed came to 64-feet, 9-inches; therefore, they made a request for a 65-feet height and only in the C-1 zoning district in the State Road A1A corridor. Ms. Coker affirmed that the area in discussion was along State Road A1A only and in the C-1 and
C-2 zoning districts.

Mayor Randels replied to Ms. Roberts that C-2 zoning was included. Mr. Boucher affirmed for Ms. Roberts that this would impact the Aerospace Business Park in the Center Street area. Ms. Roberts thanked the Planning and Zoning Board for their recommendation. Ms. Roberts stated that in order for the community to deal with some of the improvements of the May 2006 Business Survey, she regarded the discussion as a positive that the City was considering potential changes. This will provide an opportunity for the City to enhance its services to the community and bring in the desired retail shops.

Ms. Dianne Marcum related how the Redevelopment Plan addressed a desire for mixed-use and professional office space in the City. Mr. Nicholas asked how the proposed height limitation impacted green space and he asked if the Planning and Zoning Board had taken green space into consideration during their discussion. There was no response to Mr. Nicholas’ question. Mr. Nicholas also brought up if this would become the town center. Ms. Roberts responded that residents referred to the project as a town center for retail purposes. Mr. Boucher stated that staff required direction from the Council on this issue.

Mr. Petsos stated that: 1) he favored looking at the building height issue from a city-wide perspective, 2) he favored the proposed height increase with a reduced footprint, and 3) the project had city-wide potential impact; therefore, he desired a Referendum on the issue. Ms. Roberts stated that the traffic assessment was yet a concern of development. In light of the forthcoming discussion on the Citizens Participation Program, she hoped that the Council would complement the referendum with a series of Workshops. Mayor Pro Tem Hoog stated that he desired public meetings and not a Referendum. Discussion followed on how the City staff should conduct informational sessions for the public, aside from Mr. Mays’ project, but inclusive of other City areas in the C-1 and C-2 zoning districts. Mayor Randels presented a synopsis of the discussion as: 1) review the effects of building height city-wide, and 2) consider the effects in the C-1 and C-2 zoning areas, and 3) progress in a timely manner.

Discussion continued related to developing language to establish a specific zoning district related to building height. Ms. Roberts requested a schedule from staff with steps related to time frames to reach closure. Council then discussed traffic concurrency and its impending impact in relation to the proposed improvements on State Road 528. Mr. Nicholas asked the City Attorney for the time frame to place a Referendum on the ballot. Attorney Garganese replied generally late August or early September; however, the Supervisor of Elections office could provide a specific date.

In response to Mayor Randels’ inquiry of additional questions, Ms. Roberts recommended contributions from the developer toward additional green space and to seek examples of that being done in other communities. Mayor Pro Tem Hoog inquired about the rear parking garage and asked if that would be considered part of the project. Discussion affirmed that parking was included. Mr. Petsos asked the City Manager to make note of the increased height with a reduced footprint. Mr. Petsos also requested to include the vacant and potentially vacant mobile parks.

Mr. Berger informed that developer’s now build green, using recycled products, which adds to the environment. Mr. Berger reviewed properties on the State Road A1A corridor and stated that there were no other 5-acre parcels along State Road A1A. Mr. Tom Hermansen of the Residence Inn by Marriott asked if the Council planned to include Industrial zoning. Mr. Boucher replied that the recommendation did not include the Industrial zoning district, just the C-1 and C-2 zoning district.

Ms. Marcum presented an example on how to increase General Fund revenue from Ad Valorem taxes through increased property values. Mr. Nicholas stated, however, that the City did not receive its General Fund revenue from Ad Valorem taxes. Ad Valorem taxes were derived from Police, Fire, Beautification, and Library taxes. Mr. David Shirtzinger, a Canaveral resident, stated his hope for the Council to task the City Planner and Planning and Zoning Board to develop options to accomplish what was presented related to the building height issue. Ms. Joyce Hamilton added that business and sales tax meant increased revenue.

Mr. Harry Pearson, Planning and Zoning Board Member, stated that permitting 65-feet would set a precedent to consider higher buildings. At this time, Mr. Berger inquired about a time frame to proceed with construction. Mr. Boucher referred to the C-2 Zoning District development and reminded how a draft amendment was distributed to the property owners for their input. If the Council desired to hear from the community, then Mr. Morley could present height amendment information at the Community Celebration in order to gain public feedback. Mr. Boucher stated that he and staff would: 1) gather the sample maps, 2) develop the proposed Ordinance language, and 3) draft meeting notices. He recommended the first week in April for a Town Meeting on building height. Mayor Pro Tem Hoog suggested coverage in the Hometown News.

Mr. Pearson stated the need for further study and discussion on the option presented to setback the footage from residential zoning based on increased height. Mayor Randels stated that the Council was not prepared to make a decision on that option at this time. Mr. Morley reviewed the shadow casting chart and concluded that this was intended to provide an idea of how far the building would cast a shadow.

A motion was made by Ms. Roberts and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Hoog to Extend the Meeting for 15 Minutes. The vote on the motion carried 5-0 with voting as follows: Mayor Pro Tem Hoog, For; Mr. Nicholas, For; Mr. Petsos, For; Mayor Randels, For and Ms. Roberts, For.

Mr. Bill Mays first commended Ms. Roberts for her appointment as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention. He also thanked Mayor Randels for referring to him as an Investor. Mr. Mays stated the importance of understanding the dynamic of time and he expressed his agreement with Mr. Berger’s idea of a schedule. Mr. Mays asked the Council to keep in mind that in the year 2010, the community would experience some impact. In summary, he stated why this was a good economic time to proceed with the construction.

Mr. Boucher clarified that: 1) Mr. Morley would set up a public feedback table with maps at the Community Celebration on Saturday, March 8th, 2) staff would schedule a meeting in early April inviting the C-1 and C-2 property owners along State Road A1A to discuss the proposed code amendment and obtain their feedback, and 3) the Building Official and City Planner would establish a schedule for public hearings to coincide with the amendment. In conclusion, Mayor Randels stated that Council would continue to discuss the progress of the amendment at each City Council meeting up to its conclusion.

8. Citizen Awareness and Participation Plan.

Mayor Randels stated that the Planning and Zoning Board provided a recommendation to not add another level in the process. Ms. Roberts requested to table the Item until the next City Council meeting.

A motion was made by Ms. Roberts and seconded by Mr. Nicholas to Table Item
No. 8 until the Next Regular City Council Meeting. The vote on the motion carried
5-0 with voting as follows: Mayor Pro Tem Hoog, For; Mr. Nicholas, For; Mr. Petsos, For; Mayor Randels, For and Ms. Roberts, For.
