Mrs. Cartwright said this is an issue that was brought up last year by Council and that she would like
to see a meeting with city staff, Indian River County recreation and sports and other organizations in
Sebastian to determine needs. She questioned why the City had to provide money and buildings for
further county recreation, rather, she was looking for a partnership with them.
The City Manager said Indian River County is establishing a recreation area west of the middle
school and noted it will be difficult for Sebastian youth to get to it, said there is a possibility of
acquiring a FRDAP grant for a recreation facility.
Mrs. Sullivan concurred with reestablishing the recreation committee.
Mr. Taracka suggested that each sports or other recreation organizations pick a representative and
meet with Nancy Diamond, the City's representative to Indian River County recreation committee.

athletic activities such as performing arts.
Following further discussion, Mayor Barnes said he would contact Pat Callahan, Director of Vero
Beach/Indian River County Recreation and ask to set up a meeting with user groups to determine
recreation needs in Sebastian. The City Manager suggested the tennis group be included. Mrs.
Sullivan suggested Kay Rogers be included. Mr. Paul suggested a contingent of young people not
involved in sports be included.

Strategic Planning, Dr. David Sullivan. Indian River.
Community Coileee
The City Manager recommended Council consider strategic planning to develop
goals and objectives for the City of Sebastian.
It was the conSensus of Council, rather than following the order of the agenda, that
each Council member would address one of his or her items ia rotation.
Discussion took place on public input for this workshop. Mayor Cartwright noted
that the current procedures resolution calls for no public input at workshops and
perhaps that procedure can be changed.
Dr. Sullivan gave a brief presentation on strategic planning. He distributed a City
of Sebastian Strategic Planning Proposal (see attached).
This item was placed on the June 26, 1966 agenda for formal approval.
Further discussion took place on workshops and when public input was merited.
The City Attorney suggested that the public workshop forum be used more
frequently and that input be limited at regular meetings.
Item 15.
Fund and Unm'ade Sound System and Chairs for Council
Chambers - Mrs. Damp
Mrs. Damp recommended upgrading the sound system and purchasing new chairs
similar to those used by the County Commission for City Council members. City
Council concurred in directing the City Manager to look into this.

for the sound system.

these items can be put in a format that could be available to the public, that an
organizational chart could be put together, said all matters will be reviewed for any
deficiencies.
96.122

complete in approximately two weeks.
The City Manager said that he will bring back cost comparisons relative to

Item 7b.
Recreation, Input from Middle and High School Student Re:
Possible Activities - Mr. Taracka
Mr. Taracka expressed concern for the fact that Sebastian is statistically number
one in juvenile crime in Indian River County. He requested Council approval to
set up a workshop in the fall with area youth from ages 12 to 18 to give them an
opportunity to tell Council what they would like to see in the City. Mayor
Cartwright said a group called the Youth Enrichment Foundation has formed to
come up with activities for that age group.
TAPE I - SIDE II (1:47 P.M.)
There was no objection to Mr. Taracka's idea.

Disnosition of Former Utility Building. Main and U.S. 1 - Mr.
Halloran
Discussion took place on possible uses for the city building at Main Street and
U.S. 1. The City Manager said he preferred to have city staff clustered in one area
rather than spread out and discussed needed repairs to the building.
It was the consensus of Council that a combination of users be considered to use
the building, i.e., Sebastian River Area Historical Society working with the
Chamber of Commerce and Community Affairs Council.
96.035
Item 7a. Recreation - Recreation Committee - Mayor Cartwright
Following some discussion on recreation in the City and assistance by Vero
Beach/Indian River County Recreation, it was the consensus of City Council to

bring a proposal to a Council workshop at a later date.

tnmsportation from the North County to Leisure Square and White City.

b. !!graigg - Mayor Cartwfight/Mrs. Damp
Mrs. Damp and Mr. Taracka said they would like to see burning eliminated in the
City. The City Attorney said the state has delegated environmental regulation
authority to the County, however, Council could amend the code to be make it
more restrictive but to prohibit it would require amendment to zon/ng. The City
Manager recommended strengthening the variance standards. The City Attomey
said the variance provision could be eliminated. Mayor Cartwright suggested that
"special hardship" and "large land area" be defined.
It was the consensus of Council to direct the City Attorney to draft three language
amendment alternatives for review and selection. The City Manager said the
selection would be sent to Planning and Zoning for review and recommendation if
necessary prior to Council action.
Building Code Standard & Procedures - Mrs. Damp
Mrs. Damp inquired as to the status of adoption of the 1994 standard building
code requested by Council some time ago by direction to the former City Attorney.
The City Manager explained that he had received the proposed ordinance,
however, adoption of the 1996 National Electrical Code was now being added to
the ordinance, and the ordinance would be brought to Council soon.
Mrs. Damp went on to say that other areas of the Land Development Code need
revision. The City Manager said the City Planner had budgeted funds for fiscal
96/97 for review and update.
The remaining items under this heading were, therefore, not addressed since they
will be addressed in the review of the LDC.

Airport Management/Manager - Vice. Mayor Barnes/Mr.
Halloran
Vice Mayor Barnes recommended reinstituting the position of Airport Manager or
redefining the position, stating that he's been made aware that safety rules are
being violated at the airport because there is no supervision.
The City Manager, in response to Mr. Halloran, said he had visited with airport
tenants today.
TAPE II - SIDE I (2:35 p.m.)
He said most tenants said they would prefer someone at the airport to enforce
roles. He explained that Public Works people currently do check and maintain the
airport daily, suggested he conduct regular tenant meetings no less than quarterly,
and recommended that airport rules be upgraded.
It was the consensus, of City Council that the City Manager prepare an airport
needs assessment for the budget workshop.
The City Manager reported that he was meeting with Golden Horn because its
lease is scheduled to expire at the end of this year, said Airport Drive West
construction is under way, said staff should be going out to bid on runway 4-22
any day, and that he could not devote two hours a day to the airport.
M_rs. Damp requested a copy of airport roles and inquired when the defeated ballot
question relative to the 50 year airport leases could go back on the ballot.
It was the consensus of Council that the City Clerk fred out the earliest date the
question can be put back on the ballot.
Mayor Cartwright called recess at 2:53 p.m. and reconvened the Workshop at 3:07

and then to schedule a workshop with City Council.
It was the consensus of Council to have Mr. Hill work with the City Clerk to
schedule the citizen meetings and to schedule a Council workshop on the matter

I. hae_Markiag
Mr. Taracka discussed problems relative to speed, mm markings, traffic light
adjustments and the blinking light at Delaware brought to his attention at property
owners meetings. He requested input from Council and the public to bring back to
Commissioner Adams. He recommended improved visibility of mining lanes by
using reflectors or florescent markers. He said he'd been informed by
Commissioner Adams that the traffic signals would not be readjusted.
Mrs. Damp suggested a reflector on the curb on the west of the intersection of
Fleming. Mayor Cartwright reported on a traffic light problem at CR 512 and

reflect that the board "shall" interview rather than "may", and suggested a citizen
complaint process. Vice Mayor Barnes suggested that both the board and Council
be required to interview.

Vice Mayor Barnes noted these two items will be addressed during the strategic

capital infxastmcture needs.

police departments are unionized and don't allow such boards. Chief Puscher said
procedures are handled in accordance with F.S. 112. Mr. Halloran said he was not
in favor and Mr. Barnes said such boards are more common in large
municipalities.

objection.
