In accordance with Florida Statute 200.065, a tentative budget for fiscal year 2000/2001, beginning
October 1, 2000 and ending September 30, 2001, has been submitted to the City Council for review.
A Budget Workshop was held on August 16, 2000 for the purpose of providing Council
deliberations on the budget and public input. The result is the Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year
2000/2001 that has been provided to Council for review.
On September 13, 2000, the City Council adopted a tentative budget for fiscal year 2000/2001.
Following adoption of the tentative budget for fiscal year 2000/2001, a f-mai analysis was made of
the budget for final adoption. The result is included in Resolution R-00-50 and further explained
here.
~' The General Fund has been increased by $15,000 which results from including the
Administrative fees due from the Riverfront Redevelopment Fund inadvertently left out of the
budget. The corresponding increase is included in Contingency in the General Fund.
)~ The Discretionary Sales Tax Fund is increased by $30,000 which results from an
appropriation from fund balance for funding the purchase of two vehicles (small light duty
trucks) for the Engineering Department. The vehicles being replaced were included in
Appendix 1 of the budget and inadvertently left out of the funding process.
> The Riveffront Redevelopment Fund is decreased due to receipt of final information for
preliminary budgeting purposes regarding the boundaries of the district and the inclusion of
some properties and the redefining of taxable propcn~y by the Property Appraiser's office. The
result is a decrease of the Tax Increment Revenue of $31,010, gross for both the City and
County and a slight increase in interest revenue of $3,144 resulting from higher interest rates,
netting a decrease of $27,866.
~' The Golf Course Fund is increased by $3,573 which is the result of receiving a Tax Notice
for the Restaurant portion of the Club House. This is the first year of this tax and is consistent
with the rental of government owned properties to non-governmental entities.
The net increase from the tentative budget to the adopted budget is $20,707.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Move to adopt the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2000/2001.

POLICY PAPER:
The Enhancement of Sebastian's Canal System
I. OBJECTIVE - TUR_NllgG A SOW'S EAR INTO A SILK PURSE
While many times we curse the legacy of open drainage that GDC lei~ the City,
there is an opportunity to enhance the major canal system beyond its utilitarian function as
stormwater drainage. Many communities in the state have canal systems that are treated as
true assets in the quality of life for its citizens, Already our canals are teeming with all
species of freshwater fish, migratory birds flock along their banks, raccoons wander along
the water's edge and playfully wash their snacks in the canals.. , all this from a public
facility that by and large we consider,, and treat as, a mere ditch.
A quick look at a map of Sebastian reveals that the major canals -- Elkam
Waterway, Collier Creek, Schumann Canal -- nm throughout the heart of the City. While
property owners on the canals enjoy certain riparian rights in the waterways, and indeed
canal lots run at a premium to other similarly situated real estate, these canals belong to
the public and should be managed in a way that bestows to the remainder of the
community some of the recreational and aesthetic benefits enjoyed by those living along
the canal banks. The objective of this Plan is to treat ~the canals more like waterways by
protecting the existing vegetation, encouraging beneficial plantings along the banks, and
providing facilities for public enjoyment, all in a way that preserves their primary function
for stormwater discharge and enhances their filtration capabilities.
VISION STATEMENT
A Sebastian family has just finished a Sunday afternoon picnic in the park area
beside the canal. While Grandpa takes the baby under the shade of the trees overhanging
the bank for a little nap, Dad takes the little one down to the fishing dock for some bluegill
action on the canepoles. Junior and his best friend are back from dropping the SUV off at
the other park, and they're ready to put the canoes in for a lazy afternoon bird-
watching/paddling 'excursion with Mom down the waterway. Property values are rising,
and the living is easy...
1II. STEP ONE -- PRESERVATION AND RESTORATION OF TrrE, FAUNA
The current discussion about the City's stewardship over the canal system arose
over a couple of controversies involving clearing of the strip of land located between
residential lots and the adjacent seawall. The former City Manager had promulgated a
policy (attached) that sought to set parameters on the degree to which a homebuilder
could remove the vegetation from what is in truth City-owned property. Unfortunately,
confusion as to the differences between the City's authority as a regulator, versus its
authority as a landowner, has prevented the effective implementation of'the desired policy
objectives.
The proposed policy will seek to preserve most of the natural plant growth along
the canals, taking into account that canal lot owners are entitled to build docks and have a
reasonable expectati°n of some view of the water. At the same time the City will
undertake to encourage planting of desirable tree species that grow in a manner that has
the least impact on water flow (swamp bay or redbay trees if within six feet of a seawall;
pond or bald cypress also allowed if not). As they grow, these trees should have no more
impact on water flow than the pilings of the docks now allowed on the canals, and they
will provide environmental benefits of water filtration and wildlife habitat.
A. Trimming of Brush
An adjoining landowner will be allowed to obtain a permit to trim the height of
shrubs and brush Coat not desirable trees) within the middle 60% of the lot frontage. The
brush may be trimmed no lower than a total height of four feet or one foot above the level
of any seawall, whichever is higher.
B. Removal of Vegetation
A separate permitting process shall be available for any adjoining landowner
desiring to remove vegetation from the City canal frontage. Nuisance species can be
removed from any part of the canal frontage. The permit to remove vegetation will have a
fee sufficient to cover the City's expenses in inspecting the site before removal to verify
existing conditions at the site and a final inspection to ensure that the permit was followed.
The City Land Development Code already provides that a dock may be
constructed within the middle one-third of the canal frontage, and clear-cutting will only
be allowed within the area to be covered by a dock. In exchange for the privilege of
clearing an area for a dock, the landowner will be required to plant specimens of the
desirable trees either equal to the number of trees actually removed by the clearing or, if
greater, in accordance with the following formula:
. % of Frontage Cleared # of Trees
0+ to 15% 1
15+ % 2
Within the middle one-third of the frontage where no dock is to be constructed, no
desirable trees may be removed, but remaining vegetation may be cleared so long as one
,~elected tree is planted within the cleared area for every 15 feet of impacted area.
C. The City's Efforts
For its part the City shall encourage civic groups to remove nuisance plants and
plant desked vegetation, including desirable native grasses and small plants, along canal
frontage that has been cleared in the past. LDC provisions shall be amended to allow a
canal lot owner to receive tree point credits for up to two trees planted along the frontage.
An extensive public education program will be enacted.

1). Enforcement
Wrongful removal of vegetation from the canal frontage shall not only be subject
to a fine from the regulatory aspect, but vegetation will be replaced in equal size and
number and the costs thereof will be assessed against the landowner committing the
violation.
IV. STEP TWO -- RECP, EATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The public's appreciation of the waterway system can only be enhanced if an
opportunity to use them is provided. The City already has Hardee Park that can provide
access to the canal system north of C.K. 512. The County should be encouraged to restore
the connection of the canals under C.R. 512. The development of the passive water park
in conjunction with the Water Management District south of Englar Drive will provide
another prime opportunity to build amenities that could include a canoe launch and small
fishing pier. The City also owns land at the site of Elkam Dam~ and a s. ignificant park
parcel across the street, that could be used for picnic and canoe launch facilities.
Out of respect for the solitude of the homes along the canals, it is recommended
that gasoline-powered motors, now limited to 3 1/2 horsepower, be completed barred
from the waterways.
V. IB~PLEB~iENTATION
This plan will require a number of changes to the City codes that can be adopted in
short order to implement the vegetation protection provisions, and the recreational
elements can be addressed step-by-step in the budgetary process.

SUMMARY STATEMENT
In 1992, City Council adopted Resolution R-92-30 approving an intedocal agreement establishing
the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). and an Apportionment Plan. In 1999, City Council
adopted Resolution R-99-38 accepting the 1999 Appodionment Plan which reflected the same
population figures as the 1.993 plan but added the Indian River County School District as a voting
member.
On January 12, 2000 City Council, by motion, directed staff to request one additional .voting
member on the MPO for the City of Sebastian. The Indian River County Commission met on
April 12, 2000 and passed a motion that the process begin to add an additional member from the
City of Sebastian to the MPO.
Robert Keating, indian River County MPO Staff Director, in a letter dated September 5, 2000 is
now requesting that in order to finalize the process of adding the School District as a voting
member of MPO, each member approve and execute a revised Interlocal Agreement in the same
manner as the original was approved.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
In light of the City Council's recent request, I am recommending that City Council adopt
Resolution R-00-53, approving execution of the interlocal agreement,~F, ;~,c. c_~nH~,..-. :~c'. ~,;,~

Mr. Tencnce Moore

Dear Mr. Moore:
As per your request, I am writing ~ letter to provide suppl~nental information
regarding my recent request for the City of Sebastian to authorize the mayor to
execute the Interlocal Agreement for the Creation of the Indian River .County
MetroPolitan Planning Organization~
The 'referenced interlocal agreement is a document wkich must be executed by the
MPO's member jurisdictions .and the no,ida Department of Transportation (FDOT)
to change the voting membership of the MPO. In this case, the change.is to add the
lucian Kiver County School Dian-itt as a voting member of the MPO. It is important
to note that execution of the interlocal agreenmnt 'is one of the last steps in a long
process thai must begin'with the'MPO's adoption of a revised apportionment plan.
For your information, I la~ attached several doc~ to this letter. These inchdc:
a copy.of the MPO's adopted 1999 apportionment plan, a Copy of'an axccrpt from.
Chapter 339 of Florida Statutes, and a chronology of the I999 apportionment pla~
rehtcd activities. Hopefully, these documents will put in perspective the ~me~r~me.s
assoc/ated with the City of Sebastian's request for an additional representative on the
MPO.
As indicated by the 1999 apportionment plan chronology, the'process is time
consuming. Not only must plans and agreements be drafted, reviewed, .and approved,
but various jurisdictions, agencies, and offices must take action. For those reasons,
I have attempted to complete the 1999 apportionment Process before formally
initiating the effort to again revise the MPO's apportioned representation. Even
though it has taken longer than anticipated .(because of FDOT not providing the
necessary detail information to ~e the interlocal agreement) to complete the
1999 Apportionme-ut process, MPO staffhas started work on the new apportionment
plan which must be prepared to add another Sebastian voting member to the MPO.
The City of Sebastia~ irfi~ted its request for additional MPO representation with a
· February 23, 2000 letter to MPO Chairman John Tippim On April 12, 2000, the /--A
MPO approved the Ci~s request and directed staff to initiate the process of rexSs/ng
the MPO's apportioned representatio~
$iuce the April MPO meeting, staff h~ worked on preparing a revised MPO apportionment plan.
Because of the pro,,_vi~__'.on of Section 339.175(2)(a) of Florida Statutes that requires that MPO's be
apportioned om an eq~t, ablc geographic-population ratio basis," thc MPO may not have the ability
to just increase the MPOs membership by adding another Sebastian representative. There may have
to be other changes to ensure the required equitable geographic-population ratio.
For that reason, IvlPO staffhas identified several MPO apportionment options, each having different
representatiom ~rom the member loc~ governments. After doing a sta~'tiea~ analysis of these
option.~, we ha-~e started working on the draft apportionment plan.
(]ivem those considerations, I anticipate briuging a revised draft apportionment plau before the MPO
at its November me. ting. B~ that t~me, the 1999 Apportionment Plan process will be completed,
the analy~ dome, and the revised plan drafted.
i hope that th~s informatiom adequately explaius the apportionment process and timefi'ames. With
that, leu me emphasize that the only issue before the City Council now is whether or not to appro'~e
and authorize the n~yor to axeaute the Inteflocal Agreement that will provide voting membership
to the Indian P, iwer county School Dh'trier.
i trust that this iuformation is ~eut to address any issues that may arise at the September 27,
2000 Sebastian City Council meeting and that you do not ~aeed me to attend. If any questions do
arise prior to the meeting, please do mot he.ate to contact me.

ADOPTED: February 10, 1999

tVIETROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION
1999 APPORTIONMENT PLAN
Background
Based upon 1990 Census data. the City of Vero Beach and the densely populated land surrounding
the City was designated as a Census urbanized area. With a total 1990 population of 64,707, the
urbanized area includes ttmee general purpose local governments. These are: the City of Vero Beach,
the Town of Iud/an River Shores, and the Board of County Commissioners (unincorporated area).
While the Vero Beach Urbanized Area includes only those areas in and around the City of Vero
Beach, the area expected to be re:ban within twenty years includes much of the land within the
County east'of 1-95.. Considered as the trarmitioning urbauized area, that portion of the County
includes four of the co,tory's fiVe'incorporated areas. The only mmficipality within the County which
is not within the tramitioz_ing urban/zed area is the City of Fellsmere,
As per the requirements of 23 USC 134(c) and 23 CFR 450.308, the metropolitan (PL) area shall at'.
a minimm include the existing urbanized area and the area e.xpected to become urbanized within
twenty.years. According to federal regulations, the PL areamay include all oz. part Of a county.
Accordingly, the metropolitan (PL) area boundary was established pursuant to those requirements.
As established, the metropolitan (PL) area includes all land within the transitioning urbanized area
as well as the City of Fellsmere, the area around the City of Fellsmere, and a corridor along CR 512
extending from the transitioning urban/zed ~ea boundary to the City of Fellsmere.
'Description
The MPC (PL) area is depicted on Map 1. As shown on that map, the MPC area includes only the
easternmost portion of the. coupty, comprising approximately 25 percent of the land in the .county.
While the MPC area'~C.arporates only 25 percent of.the county's'land area, it includes virtually all
of the county's population.
According to the 1990 Census, the County's 1990 population was 90,208. Of that number, 64,707
were within the Census urbanized area. Most of the land outside of the metropolitan area boundary
is undeveloped marshland, agricultural land, or natural areas, with only scattered homesites, farms
and ranches. 'For this reason, it is assumed that the entire County population .is with/n .the
metropolitan area boundary. '"
Besides showing the MPC boundarY, Map 1 also depicts municipal boundaries as well.as County
Commission district boundaries. The 1990 population for each of these areas is also shown °n the
map.
As indicated, all five of the county's municipalities are within the metropolitan (PL) area. The five
incorporated areas are: City of Vero Beach, City of Sebastian, Town of Indian River Shores, City
of Fellsmere, and Town of Orchid. Of these, Vero Beach is the largest; it is also the County seat.
With a 1990 population of only 10, the Town of Orchid is the smallest, Table 1 identifies existing
(1990) and projected population for the County and e~zh Of the municipalities.
Besides size, there are other differences among the county's municipalities. Probably the most
significant are geography and affluence. Both the Town of Orchid and the Town of Indian River
Shores are located entirely on the barrier island. These communities have limited transportation
facilities within their jurisdictions, with SR A1A being the only state maintained roadway within the
two communities. Both towns m'e predorninately residential, with only minor retail commercial
uses, and both have affluent residents and high median family incomes.
Vero Beach is not only the largest municipality in the County; it is also the most diverse. Including
both mainland and barrier island areas, Vero ·Beach has significant residential and non-residential
areas. While almost built-out, the City has a significant amount of redevelopment activity. Various
state roads (SR 60, SR A1A, US 1), non-state arterials, a bruited public transportation system, a
public use airport, and the railroad constitute the major components of the transportation system
within the City~ . ' "
Both Sebastian and Fellsmere are. comPletely mainland communities. Fronting on the Indian Rivei'
Lagoon, Sebastian is the larger of the two, and the fastest growing of the county's municipalities.
With more than 10,000 vacant platted lots, Sebastian is expected to continue to grow at a. rapid rate.
Sebastian has a public use airport and a portion of US 1 within its boundaries. Fellsrnere is the only
municipality located west of 1-95, and.the only municipality without any state roadways w!thin its
'boundaries.
1993 A/pportionment Plan Alternatives
Section 339.175, Florida Statutes identifies MPO apportionment reqUirements. Of these
requiremgnts, the three most important are: the size requirement; the proportionality requirernent;
and the requiremer~t that (with minor exceptions) only elected officials of general purp.ose local
governments may serve on the MPO Policy Board. ..
When the MPO was formed in 1993, an apportiomnent plan was developed for the M"PO Policy
Board in accordance with Section 339.175, F.S. The development of the apportionment plan
involved an altematiws analysis regarding the number and geographic distribution of the MPO
Board members. In order to provide for a manageable goveming body in relation to the relatively
small population included within the MPO, alternatives were considered which limited the size of
the MPO Policy Board to 7, g, or 9 members. In assessing the board membership alternatives, a
major consideration was the proportionality requirement. From a proportionality perspective, the
most equitable alternative in terms of population and.geo~orapkic representation was found to be the
me member option.
The nine member option, which was subsequently adopted, consisted of an iV[PO Policy Board with
four County Comm~ issioners, two Veto Beach City Councilmen, one Sebastian City Councilman,
one Fellsmere City Councilman, and one Indian Riv. er Shores Town Councilman. Besides those
voting m~mbers, two nonvoting members were appointed to the MPO Board. These were
r~resentatives of the Town of Orchid and the indian River County. School District (IRCSD). With
this option, the unincorporated County representation (based upon the four County Commission
representatives) was close to the unincorporated proportion oft. he total County population. Another
advantage of this alternative was that the smaller municipalities, with the exception of the Town of
Orchid, had direct representation on the MPO Board.
Each of the other options considered resulted in inadequate representation on the lviPO .Board for
the smaller municipalities. While the seven member option would have included the three smallest
municipalities (Town of Indian River Shores, City of Fellsmere, and Town of Orchid) with
unincorporated residents and provide them representation .through County Commission
representatives, eight and me member alternatives would have assi~ned a shared representative for
the three .smallest municipalities. Became of the dissimilarities among these municipalities, it was
determined that a shared representative approach would not be feasib'le. AtSer careful consideration,
it was determined that ali municipahties except Orchid should have voting representation on the
lvl~O Board. '
When the initial lVl?O apportionment plan was developed in 1993, an important consideration was
whether the IRCSD could be represented ~ a voting member of the M~O Policy Board. Although
representatives of the general purpose local governments .witkin the lvl~O area agreed that the.
IRCSD should have voting representation on the Iv[PO Board, FDOT disagreed..According to
FDOT, Chapter 339, F.S. specifically listed criteria for IV[PO membership and that criteria would
not allow a school board to have voting representation on an IvlPO Board.
1993 ApPortionment Plan
Table 3 depicts the MPO Policy Board structure established by the 1993 Indian River County MPO
apportionment plan. As indicated in that table, the MPO Policy Board had nine voting members.
These included four County Commissioners, two Vero Bea~-h City Councilmen, one Sebastian City
Councilman, one F,.,llsmere City'Cotmcilman, and one Indian River Shores Town Councilman. The
Iv[PO Board also included as nonvoting'members one representative oft. he ToTM of Orchid and one
representative of the IRCSD. As structured., the MPO Board had direct representation from five of
the six general purpose local governments within the MPO area. Only the Town of Orchid, which
had a 1990 population of 10, did not have direct representation on the MPO Board.
1999 Apportionment Plan Analysis
Since 1993, FDOT's position regarding school board voting representation on MPO Policy Boards
has changed'. Fox example, FDOT, in addressing initiatives by the Broward MPO to add a school
board member to its MPO Policy Board, has interpreted Chapter 339, F.S. to.allow school board
representatives to serve as voting members of MPO Boards. This is based on Chapter 339's
provision that representati'ves of agencies operating major modes of transportation may have voting
representation orr MPO Boards, and a recognition that school boards are agencies operating a major
mode of transportation.
As written, Chapter 339.175(2)a, F.S., states that au MPO "may include, as part of its apportioned
voting members, an...official of an agency that operates or .administers a major mode of
Xansportafion." In Indian River County, the Indian River County School District (H1.CSD) provides
a greater number of trips over a greater number of miles with a larger fleet than any other
transportation provider, including the County's public transportation provider. Unlike the County,
3
municipalities, and other major transportation providers, such as the Community Coach public
transportation system and the County. '~ three public airports, all of ~,vhich have direct or indirect
voting representation on the MPC Policy Board,. the IRCSD does not have direct or indirect voting
representation on the MPC Board.
Although adding an IP,.CSD voting member to the MPC Board does not affect the population or
percent distribution of the MPO's 1993 apportionment, it does require updating the MPO's original
1993 apportionment plan because it changes the. structure of the MPC Board. This 1999
apportionment plan addre.~ses the addition of an n~CSD voting member to the MPC Board and
contains the information required in an apportionment plan by Chapter 339.175, F.S.
Table 4 depicts the Policy Board structure established by the Indian River County MPO's 1999
apportionment plan. The 1999 plan differs from the 1993 plan by the addition of one voting member
from the iRCSD. As a comparison of Table 4 and Table 3 indicates, providing the IRCSD wilh
· voting representation on the MPC Policy Board does not affect the population or percent
distribution of the MPO's 1993 apportionment, This.is'because the iRCSD serv~ the entire County
rather than a geos-raphic subarea. Therefore, the geographic population and the percent
representation served by the MPC Boacd's 1993 members will not change, in fact, the MPC Board'
will more accurately represent and reflect the major transportation providers in the County without
reducing the representation of the current MPC Board members.
1999 Apportionment Plan .Appro~,al
In accordance with Chapter 339.175, F.S. and FDOT policies and procedure, s, the MPC um_uimously
.approved the 1999 apportionment plau at its regularly:scheduled February 10, 1999 meeting. Once
approved by the lVIPO, the 1999 apportionm~nf Plan was then approved by resolution by each
member local government and subsequently transmitted to FDOT District Four and the Governor's
Office.

planning organizations, referred to in this section as
M.P.O.'s, shall develop, in cooperation with the state
and public transit operators, transportation plans and
.programs for metropolitan areas. The plans and pro-
grams for each metropolitan area must provide for the
development and integrated management and opera-
tion of transportation systems and facilities, including
pedestrian walk'ways and bicycle transportation faclli-'
ties that will function as an intermodal transportation
system for the metropolitan area, The process for
developing 'such plans and programs shall provide for
consideration of all modes of transportation and shall
be continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive, to the
degree appropriate, based on the complexity of the

(a)l. An M.P.O, shall be designated .for each
urbanized area of the state, Such designation shall 'be
accomplished by agreement between the Governor
and units of general-purpose.local government repro.
seating at least 75 percent, of the population of the
urbanized area; however, the unit of general-purpose
local government that represents the central City or cit-
ies .within the M.P.O. jurisdiction, as defined by the
United States Bureau of the Census~i must be a party to
such agreement. '"
2, More than one M,P.Oi may be'designated
within an existing metropolitan planning area only if the
Governor and the existing M.P.O. determine that the
size and complexity of the existing metropolitan plan-
ning area makes the designation of. more than one
M.P.O, for the area appropriate.
(b) Each M.P.O. 'shall be created and operated
under the provisions of this section pursuant to an
interlocal agreement entered into pursuant to s.
163.01. The signatories to the interiocal agreement
shall be the depattr~'ent and the governmental'en..tit~es
designated by.the Governor.for membership on the
M.P,O. if there is a conflict between this section and s.
163.01, this section prevails,
(c} The jurisdictional boundaries of an' M.P.O. shall
be determined .by agreement between the Governor
and the .applicable M.'P.O. The .boundaries must
include at least the metropolitan planning area, which
is the existing urbanized area and the contiguous area
expected to become urbanized w~thin a.20-yasr fore-
cast period, and may encompass the entire metropoli-
tan statistical area or the consolidated'metropolitan.sta-
tistical area.
(d) In the case of an Urbanized area designated as
a nonattainment area for ozone or carbon monoxide
unde~ the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. ss. 7401 etseq., the
boundaries of the metropolitan planning area in exist-
ence as of the date of enactment of this paragraph shall
be retained, except that' the boundaries may be
adjusted by agreement of the Governer'and affected
metropolitan planning organizations in the manner
described in this section. If more than one M.P.O. has
authority within a metropolitan area or an area that is
designated as a nonattainment area, each M.P.O. shall
consult with other M.P.O.'s designated for such area
and with the state in the coordination of plans and pro-
grams required by this section.

and federal requirements. The long-range transporta-
tion plan must be consistent, to the maximum extent
feasible, with future land use elements and the goals,
objectives, and policies o4 the approved local govern-
ment comprehensive plans of the units of local govern-
merit located within the jurisdiction of the M.P.O. The
*approved long-range transportation plan must be con-
sidered by local governments in the'~jeveiopment of the
transportation elements .in local government compre-
.hensive plans and any amendments thereto. The long-
range transportation plan must, et a minimum..:
· (al identify transportation facilities, including, but
not limited to, major roadways, airports, seaports,
spaceports, commuter rail systems, transit systems,
and interrnodal or multimodal terminals that·will func-

able. For the purpose of developing the' long-range
transportation plan,.the M.P.O..and the department
shall cooperatively develop estimates of funds that ~11
be available to support the plan implementation. Inno.
vative financing techniques may be used to fund
needed projects and programs. Such techniques n~j
include the assessment of tolls, the use of value ca~
lure financing, or the use of value pdcing.
(c) Assess capital investment and other measures
necessary to:

Dear Mr, Moore:
Thank you for your recent letter notifying me of the City of Sebastian's request to
acid a voting member to the MPO Board, This request would require consideration
and approval by the MPO Board to initiate the process. I would suggest that, since
meeting packets for the March 8, 2000 MPO meeting have already been distributed,
this issue be placed on the April .I2, 2000 MPO meeting agenda. At that time, MPO
staff and. FDOT representatives can. provide more detailed information about MPO
Board appo~onment requirements and procedures.
Changing the MPO Boa-td's composition is a lengthy process that requires close
coordination with and endorsement by each MPO member local government, FDOT'
C~ntral and District Four offices, and ultimately, approval by the Governor' s Office.
Without objection, I will schedule this item for discussion during the April 12, 2000
MPO meeting. In the meantime, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you
may have.

CALL TO ORDER
Commissioner Tippin called the meeting to order and acted as
Chairman, at which time, it was determined a quorum, was present.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Chairman Tippin asked if there were any additions or corrections to the
Minutes of March 8, 2000. There were none.
· ON MOTION by Kenneth. Macht,. SECOND.ED by
Fran Adams, the members unanimously (9-0)
voted to approve the Minutes of March 8, 2000, as
re-presented and re-distributed.
DISCU$.~iON OF MPO BOARD MEMBERSHIP A, Np APPORTIONMENT
Mr. Keating stated a staff report addressing the issue of M.P.O
membership and reapportionment came about as a result of the City of
Sebastian's request that.the MPO 'add an addi,fiOnal' member to'the Governing
Board',
He then gave a presentation with staff's recommendations concerning
this issue, a copy of which is on .file in the County Commission Office.
Mr. Keating pointed out at the time the School District asked to be a
2 April 12, 2000
member of the MPC, there was a state-level interpretation they could be
members, which was not the case in 1993 when the MPC had to be
comprised of elected officials and transportation authorities.
.He stated that in.the case of the City of Sebastian, if the MPC were'to
go through reapportionment again, it would probably take about a year, and
the steps that would need to be taken would be as follows:
·. Preparation of the AppOrtionment Plan and approval by the MPC.
.,, Adoption of Resolutions by the Board of County Commissioners, the
School District and ali the municipalities in the County.
· Submission of the Plan to the Central Office of the FDOT and the
Governor's Office.
° After the above procedure took place, the lnterlocal Agreement'
· would' need to be amended by the MPC, approved by the Board of
CoUnty Commissioners, the School DiStrict and' all of the
municipalities.
He said Staffs recommendation was for the MPC to postpone any
changes to the MPO's membership until after the 2000 census data became
available.
Commissioner Macht felt there was enough evidence Sebastian was a
3 April 12, 2000
rapidly growir~g area and would be needing an additional seat.
Commissioner Adams commented, if the process were to begin, it could
always be amended, if necessary.
Mr. Keating remarked the population percentage distribution within the
unincorporated County was currently about 65%; therefore, using the. criteria
of Florida Statutes 339 which states each jurisdiction should have
representation comparable to its population, the County should have about
65% of the representaiton on the MPC Board. He said,.dght now, the County
had four.representatives on a nine-member board, which was essentially less
than 50%, and if you added another member, the County's representation
would be diluted.
Commissioner Adams felt if ratios were .a concern, a fifth commissioner
could be added to keep '-the percentages up, because despite the
discrepancies shown from the' census and the' Bureau of Economics and
'~Bu s'in'ess 'Research (B EB R.). projections,'~he Sebastian population ,would' be
somewhere in the' middle.
Mayor Bowden wondered how the City of Vero Beach would figure in
on another county or municipality being.added as a member,
Commissioner Ginn stated the Council of Public Officials (COPO) was
4
April 12, 2000
/'-'" given the responsibility of looking at reapportionment, and discovered it was
not really possible to do i.t until after the.census counts were in. She felt the
MPC should follow Staffs recommendation to have actual numbers to go on,
which would not be in until 2001; however, someone could come.on as a non-
Voting member. She commented the SchoOl: Board was a d~fferent case
altogether, because it Wasa body that wanted representation 'because of the
waythe roads Were used. ' .': '.. ' '
Vice Chairman WUrmstedt said if you went strictly by population,
Fellsmere and Indian :River Sh°res sh°ul~ Pr°~ably n°t be represented' '
· 'COmmissioner Ginn a~ked how 'ind~an' R~ver Shores'became a part of
the MPO if it was based solely on population. ": '
Mr. Keating replied the MP0 :Governing Board Sh°uld rePresent the
percentage distnbution- of the local 'governments Within' the area as.closely as.
possible, and althoUgh there coUld be some divergence from the strict nUmber
· representation; the fu..~her' you' moved away from 'it, 'the'..more closely the
FDO'r and Governor's Office would be looking at-it and not approve
it.'
Commissioner- Stanbridge brought up the fact that before the MPO was
formed, the Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) was in existence,- and
,.__...the members included were Indian River Shores, the School Board, and
Feilsmere, and everyone was represented very well for a number of years
before the MPC was established.
Councilman Hill was concerned if we waited for the census information
at the end of 2001, it would be toward the end of.2002 or 2003 before there
was another seat on the MPC, because possibly by then, the :population in
Sebastian would be greater than ~/ero Beach.
Councilman Fletcher insisted the proper procedure would be to wait until
the census figures came in because it was inappropriate to do it now.
Commissioner Tippin clarified for purposes of the new members
present, that although there had been differences 0f..opinion .in the past,
matters concerning Sebastian :had been supported by the MPC, and at one
point in time, when Sebastian's one representative opposed the FDOT's plan
on widening certain roads, it was voted down. by this group.
ON MOTION by Fran Adams, SECO.NDED
'. Kenr~eth ,Macht,
by
it'was.,recommended...,.th~at 'the
process begin to add'an additional member from
the City of Sebastian to the MPO.
Under discussion, Commissioner Ginn asked if the FDOT was going to
be working on. an interlocal agreement before there was proof it was
i 6 April 12, 2000
,
necessary. .~.
· Mr. Keating Stated the interlocal agreement took place after approval of
the a.ppodionment process.
THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION,
and the Vote was 8-1. in favor of the'Motion, with
Councilman Fletcher opposing. '.
~'~---'" STATUS REPORT OF MPC ADVISORY COMMITTEE~
Mr.' Keating mentioned the information was contained in the backup.
OTHER BUSINESS
5000 EnhanCement Program Update
Mr. Keating reported a memorandum had been recently distributed to
the members, along with a copy of the application and rUles.

transportation system, such as sidewalks and bikeways, and $240,000 Would

'SUMMAKY
As you are well aware, the City recently adopted the revised Land Development Code (LDC), which
included the new County Road 512 Performance Overlay District. Additionally, a primary objective
of the Growth Management Department's Fiscal 2000-2001 Budget is the process of holding a series
of open public forums to solicit resident and business community participation (a.k.a. Charette
Process) for establishing guiding principles for future development and streetseape beautification
improvements along the CR 512 corridor. In light of recent events .concerning the City Council's
denial of a proposed Car Wash facility on County Road 512, staff wishes to move this project to the
forefi'ont so as to not encounter such problems in the future. With the impending development flourish
inevitable, it is very.important that the City begin the visioning process for C.R. 512 to avert any future
plan submittals that may be inconsistent with the C.R. 512 vision.
It is our hope that we can accomplish this activity without imposing severe economic development
restrictions. However, we are well aware that the visioning process can be rather lengthy and time
consuming and will take all necessary precautions to insure protection against unwanted or undesirable
development. One precaution that has been suggested is the imposition of a moratorium on certain
categories of development until the visioning process has been completed.
Included with this transmittal is a copy of the C-512 zoning regulations and the C-512 Overlay District
requirements. Please review these documents prior to the September 27, 2000 City Council meeting,
at which time we can begin preliminary discussions concerning the future direction of development
along the C.R. 512 corridor.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Review the attached documents and direct staff accordingly.

SECTION 54-2-5.3CO~vI~IERCIA.L DISTRICTS (Subsections 54-2-5.3.1 through 54-2-5.3.3)
GEN'ERAL INTENT OF CON~'M~RCIA_L DISTRICTS
The overall pm-pose and ~tent of the commercial d.i~-icts is to provide a management framework for
implementir~g Comprehensive Plan commercial development objectives and policies. The location and
disla-ibution of speCific types of commercial activities shall be determined based on the following considerations:
Trip generation characteristics, including impact on transportation facilitie~ and off-street parking systems;
Location and site requirements based on specific needs of respective commercial activities, their market area,
anticipated employment generation and floor area requirements;
Compatibility with and impact on nearby residential and other sm-rounding ¢ornmercial activities;
Relationship to sur'rounding land uses and natural sysrem~; and
Impact on exis.tmg and plazmed community services and utilities.
.Ail commercial development shall comply with the Comprehensive Plan, performance criteria in Chapter LTl, as
well as all other applicable land development regulations. Following is a description of the purpose of each
zoning district herein established, ~ctudi.ng reference to the Comprehensive Plan Furore Land Use Map
designation which shall be implemented, through the land development regulahons..
SUBSECTION 54-2-5.3.1 COMI'VlrlgRCIAL-512 DISTRICT (C-512)
INTENT. The C-512 district is established to implement. Comprehensive Plan policies for managing
land designated for commercia! development, along segments of C.R. 5 I2. ·
Traffic impacts Along C.R. 512 Corridor. The purpose and intent of the C-5 t2 district is to
provide a well-plan.ned and equitable growth management policy for directing fat'are
development within the C-512 district boundaries. The existmg pa~em of development without
such regulation violates accepted principles and practices of traffic engineering, comary road
policies and standards, and adversely impac~ the safety, wetfare,~ and convenience of the
motoring public. This statement acknowledges the fact that C.R. 512 is identified as an arterial
highway on the major thorougtzfare plans of both the City of Sebastian and Indian River
County. Both acknowledge that C.R. 512 is a major regional transportation facility linkmg U.S.
I and 1-95, and als° linking the cities of Sebastian and Fellsmere with Indian River County, mad
the City of Vero Beach urban areas to the south.
Plan for Off-Street Parking and Controlled Curb Cuts. The purpose and intent of the C-512
d/strict is also to restrict the location of curb cuts within the district, require compliance with a
master plan for parking and curb cut control, and regulate the timing and intensity of land
development in order to alleviate potential Ixaffic congestion along the C.R. 512 corridor.
Although presently land within this district is relatively undeveloped, if the regulations
prescribed herein were not duly adopted, future development w/thin this district would generate
unsafe and dangerous conflicts [n traffic flow along C.R. 512.

approval is sought, which would be contingent on approval of the proposed FY 2000-2001 budget.

SUM!MARY
On October 1, 1998, the City of Sebastian entered into a two year rate guarantee contract for Property,
Casualty & Liability as well as, Worker's Compensation Insurance with the Florida League of Cities. The
policies terminate on September 30, 2000. Pursuant to good policy, the City engaged the Getting Group as
Agent of Record, similar to the Health Insurance process last year in September, 1999, to facilitate a Request
for Proposal for General Liability and, separately, for Worker's Compensation Insurance. The results of their
analyses and recommendations accompany this agenda item under separate cover.
We have analyzed our past insurance and Risk Management policies and procedures to insure that our
insurance coverage is .the best available. The Coregis quote is substantially lower in premium with a large
number of enhancements not provided by the League, therefore, we are recommending the Florida Cities
Program offered by Coregis Insurance. We believe this will provide the best possible Property, Casualty &
Liabihty coverage to the City in the event of catastrophic losses.
For Worker's Compensation Insurance, even though the Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT)
quote is lower (by $720), we feel that our working relationship with the Florida League is such that it would
not be cost effective to change now and recommend staying with the League for one more year, however, we
will be reviewing and analyzing the costs of doing business periodically over the next year in preparation of
re-quoting the two coverages in August, 2001. In addition, PGIT has been in business for one year only. We
believe there is insufficient track record to justify changing the policy now, however, that may change in 2001.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Move to authorize the City Manager to executi~e Year Agreements between The City of Sebastian and
Coregis Insurance for Property, Casualty & Liability Insurance and the Florida League of Cities for Worker's
Compensation Insurance effective~October\~l~ 1, 2000. ~
