4. WORKSHOP ITEMS
03.007
A. Riverview Park Expansion - Pier Improvements (backup to be provided at workshop)
The City Manager stated the City is finally able to look toward construction of the twin pier
project and several months back City Council asked that a floating dock be investigated but
neither the Florida Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) or Army Corp of Engineers is
willing to allow such a structure however, it could be added in the future.
The City Engineer addressed City Council stating Kimley-Horn has preserved the City's best
interest at every step of this process and that a particular agency is requiring a decision be
made which is either to proceed as previously decided or go with a modification which will give
up rights for future growth.
Mike Kieffer, Kimley-Horn addressed City Council, stating Council had given them direction,
after which they proceeded with permitting a fixed fishing pier on the north, and a small
temporary mooring facility for a minimum number of boats on the south pier. He said the Army
Corps of Engineers needs a final detailed permit application and the state is.asking the City to
modify the submerged lands lease and possibly limit increasing future dock use. He requested
direction from Council on whether they wish to move forward as previously planned or modify its
submerged lands lease or negotiate. He further stated negotiations would hurt the grant time
frame and construction must begin.
The City Manager said if the direction was to maintain the original 64 slips, the City does not
have to construct the entire 64 slips at this time. The City Attorney said the basic infrastructure
for the pier would have to be constructed but the boat slips would not have to be operational.
Mr. Kiefer said in his opinion, DEP may ask why the use would be changed from commercial
marina to public facility but the permit is still valid.
The City Engineer clarified that if the City requested time to negotiate to have future expansion,
it would jeopardize the grant schedule.
Mr. Keiffer explained that DEP was concerned with the possibility of future sea grass growing at
the pier location. The City Attorney explained that DEP equated boat slips to manatee deaths
and future boat slips will not be allowed and an ADA concern could be remedied in the future.
Ed Majcher, 688 Fleming Street, implored City Council to spend time on the water and see what
is visionary for the future, and act on the permits that were given to the City at the beginning,
instead of limiting what we can do in the future.
Discussion followed on floating docks allowing easier handicapped access. Mr. Kieffer said
ladders could be added to access boats if floating piers are not constructed.
City Council Workshop
June 11,2003
Page Three
Mayor Barnes asked if the City goes with the original permit, could the City apply for floating
piers or other means to make access easier. Mr. Kieffer replied modifications could be
negotiated in the future.
It was noted the submerged lands lease prohibits live-a boards and designates boat size.
The City Manager reiterated that if the Council directs going with the original permit, he would
come back with a recommendation on how to proceed on June 25, 2003.
Mr. Kieffer stated the fish cleaning station would have to be on the land so that waste is
deposited onshore.
4. Being no further business, Mayor Barnes adjourned the workshop at 6:42 p.m.

INTRODUCTION OF NEW BUSINESS FROM THE PUBLIC
Item that has occurred or was discovered within the previous six months which is not otherwise on the
agenda - sign-up required - limit of ten minutes for each speaker
Damian Gilliams, said he wished to speak on 4th of July street closings. The City
Attorney said if Mr. Gilliams was very persuasive he could ask Council to reconsider its
previous motion on this consent agenda item. The City Manager reiterated the approved
street closings. Mr. Gilliams expressed concern that Indian River Drive will be closed all
day on the 4th of July between Coolidge and Harrison. He recommended that this
portion of Indian River Drive not be closed for the whole day and just shut it down prior
to the fireworks. He asked that Council monitor the road, and said that no one uses it
during the day.
Mr. Coniglio said the 4th of July festivities enhance businesses in the area and that there
is a safety issue on that road.

Consider Request by Sebastian Property Owners to Publish City Council
Agendas in Newspaper (SPOA Letter, Clerk Letter, 7/24/02 Transmittal &
Minutes)
Sal Neglia, Sebastian Property Owners Association, requested that agendas be
placed back in the newspaper, due to people who do not have computers and
cable.
Baxter Coston, Sebastian, SPOA, said the agenda and the things that the
Council does is the most important thing they do. He said the public needs to
have a reminder that there is a meeting, and to get more people at meetings.
Mayor Barnes said he does not disagree that more people should come and he
cited that only 18 or 19% of registered voters come out to vote, the City only
received two phone calls when agendas stopped, and that if people are
interested in what is going on they will come.
Mr. Coniglio noted that the advertised agendas were abbreviated, that meetings
are broadcast, and in the past, when meetings were full nothing got done.
Mr. Barczyk suggested trying to reach more people and if it doesn't work then
stop it again.
Mr. Hill said that someone reading a paper might become interested if he saw
something he was concerned with in the paper, and would not be opposed to
putting it back in the paper.

Subject: Solid Waste Collection Franchise
Date Submitted: 6/1903
For Agenda of: 6/25/03
SUMMARY:
Since the prior solid waste franchise was adopted pursuant to Ordinance, and an ordinance will
allow the City to make it a punishable offense to collect within the City without the franchise, it
is preferable that the Franchise be enacted by this method.
Section three provides that staff should hold the heating and give the three-year notices required
to end any existing contracts for commercial collection so that the franchise can truly become
"exclusive", and the number of haulers on the streets of the City eventually reduced.

Re: Fourth of July road closure
m
Dear Mr. Moore:
This office represents the Riverview Restaurant and Flagship Marina located on Indian
River Drive in the City of Sebastian. Mr. Damien Gilliams, on behalf of the restaurant,
appeared at the last Council meeting to address the issue of road closure on Indian River
Drive during the upcoming Fourth of July celebration. I am given to understand that action
was taken on the matter prior to the time Mr. Gilliams was given an opportunity to speak
to the issue as the matter appeared on the consent agenda.
The purpose of this letter is to request that this matter be placed upon the agenda for the
meeting of June 25, 2003. I am informed that Council action may be taken only on matters
which appear on the agenda. The purpose of this letter is to request reconsideration of
Council's decision regarding road closure as taken at the previous meeting.
To be specific, the road closure plan as proposed bythe Lions Club involves closing Indian
River Drive from Coolidge to Harrison for the entire day. While there appears to be a valid
reason for closing this portion of Indian River Drive during the morning Fourth of July
parade and also during the evening firework show, there does not appear to be a reason
to keep it closed all day, especially during the high traffic periods from mid-day through the
afternoon. Automobile traffic approaching the restaurant on Indian River Drive from the
south is totally obstructed during these hours under the current plan. It is understood that
the current plan has been in existence for a number of years, however, the face of
Sebastian is changing as it is in every other community and it is not unreasonable to
suggest that traffic handling methods should be reassessed from time to time so as to
insure that they apply fairly to all segments of the community.

Access by road and traffic count are fundamental to the business interests of the
restaurant. It is respectfully suggested that these interests should be weighed equally
along with all the other interests of the public when making a final determination as to
traffic flow during a major holiday.
I look forward to discussing this matter with you at the upcoming meeting. Please do not
hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.
Thank you for your attention.
Very truly yours,
