The City Attorney informed every one of the process to adopt the tentative

maintain current spending levels for General Fund without changes for
wage increases and is recommended for Citv Council aooroval as the
Tentative Millaee which is required to be adooted in accordance with
State Statutes
The City Manager asked Council to consider the adoption of a tentative 2.9050
millage rate which is 8.26% above the rolled -back rate which is a reduction of the
first tentative millage rate of 3.0043 that was set in August.

2022
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER
COUNTY, FLORIDA, ADOPTING A TENTATIVE MILLAGE OF 2.9050
MILLS FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR 2022; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT;
PROVIDING FOR SCRIVENER'S ERRORS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
MOTION by Council Member Nunn and SECOND by Council Member
MCParthm to approve Resolution No. R-22-22.
Council Member Dodd asked how much the City has in reserves today. The CFO
responded $6.6M with a $5M level is set aside for emergencies, hurricane recovery
and staff buyouts. He explained that the financial policy describes that anything in
excess of $5M should be available for replacing and repairing the City's facilities
and for anything that might come up that isn't funded; as well as future projects
such as the public works compound. He said the CAFR shows that $IM would be
needed for everybody that is eligible to receive their payout amounts should those
employees choose to leave the City.
Council Member Dodd asked if an increase comes out of the union negotiations,
would that too come out of the reserves. The CFO confirmed it would.
Council Member Dodd said he asked in 2016, what was the minimum reserve that
they have to keep before they begin raising taxes to rebuild the reserve. His
concern is that they are talking about increasing the millage rate to 2.905 which
doesn't give them any leeway to build on the reserve account. He asked if there
was sanity in going with the 3.043 in an effort to cover those costs without
negatively affecting the reserve account which already has a lot of stuff going
against it.
The CFO explained the City's adopted financial policy that speaks about when the
reserve goes $3.5M the City should try to build into the next year's budget a
mechanism to pay back 25% of that difference which would impact the following
and future year's tax rate until the City had recovered from the deficit.
He also explained that for the last three years, the revenues have come in higher
than the expense levels which can be considered a built in cushion for the City's
ongoing obligation.
Regular City Council,

Council Member Dodd said he doesn't want to increase the millage rate but only
understand what they might be getting into.
The CFO said the City does use the DST and direct impact fees to the extent there
are improvements being made which frees up monies for repairs. He closed his
remarks to say tonight was a tentative millage rate that can be changed at the next
hearing but cannot go over the proposed millage of 3.0043 turned into the state in.
Vice Mayor Jones said the millage rate at 2.9050 is sufficient from what he has
seen and the conversations he has had.

E. Public Hearing — Consider Waste Management's Request to Increase to
Residential Collection Rates (Transmittal. Article 12. Waste Management's
Request, PPT)
Vice Mayor Jones opened the public hearing at 6:57 p.m. The City Manager said that
Waste Management has given the City a proposal to raise the rates 26.9%; however he
would only recommend a 15% increase based on his calculations. He advised that the
contract did entitle them to at least a 3% increase but the actual amount would be at the
discretion of Council. He introduced Debbie Perez, Government Affairs Manager, who
gave a PowerPoint presentation describing the extraordinary inflationary costs the
company has been incurring for the past couple of years. (See attached)
Ms. Perez said Waste Management wanted to be a continued partner and would
appreciate any consideration.
Council Member Nunn said he has received a lot of calls and messages that the residents
are unhappy with the service and he could not give such an increase. He said he would
like to hear from the other three Council Members.

Vice Mayor Jones noted the increase was for the whole company, not just our area. He
was happy with the number that staff recommends.
Council Member Dodd said he appreciated the position that Waste Management is in; he
would be in favor of the 15% until the new contract goes out to bid.
Council Member McPartlan said spoke to Ms. Perez and Mr. DeLaCruz recently who
described to him some of the complaints. For example, putting the trash can exactly back
where it was set out, or the can fell over but the senior customers couldn't pick it back up.
He said many people don't understand the things that the drivers will do for the
customersincluding putting the can back on the side of a resident's house. He said he
was okay with the increase.
Public Input
Bill Simmons, Drawdy Way, said approximately 2%2 % of the increase was to be for
salaries and he asked what the City's employees would be receiving.

A. A motion was made by Mr. McPartlan and seconded by Mr. Nunn to approve the
June 8, 2022 BOA meeting minutes.
B. RONALD AND JANET ZOLL, IN REGARDS TO LOTS 13 AND 14, BLOCK 335,
SEBASTIAN HIGHLANDS UNIT 13, LOCATED AT 1493 BEVAN DRIVE, IS
REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO ALLOW THE ROOF MATERIALS OF AN
ACCESSORY STRUCTURE THAT IS OVER 750 SF IN SIZE TO BE DIFFERENT
THAN THE PRINCIPLE STRUCTURE WHEREAS THE LAND DEVELOPMENT
CODE SEC. 54-2-7.5(c) (7) REQUIRES THE MATERIALS TO BE THE SAME.
The City Attorney read the request by Mr. and Mrs. Zoll.
Regular City Council,
1" Budget Hearing & BOA Meeting
September 13, 2022
Page 9
There were no ex parte communications to disclose by the board members. The City
Clerk swore in those who would be providing testimony.
Mr. Zoll stated the main house is 20 years old and it was time to replace the roof. He
would like to replace it with a metal roof which will last longer and hold up better
however he has a shingled garage that does not need to be replaced for another ten years.
He said the garage is 26 feet away from the house, in the back, and blocked by trees; he is
retired and on a fixed income consequently he is requesting a variance from the code
requiring the roofs to match. He presented a petition signed by 13 of his neighbors
indicating they didn't have a problem if the roofs didn't match. (See attached)
The Community Development Manager asked that the staff report and board criteria
requirements be entered into the record. She also disclosed that staff received a letter
from one of his neighbors at 1491 Bevan Drive stating that she was okay if the roofs did
not match.
The Community Development Manager presented that Mr. ZoB is seeking a building
permit to re -roof his house. In 2013 he went before the Planning and Zoning
Commission to receive approval for his 26 fl x 30 R custom garage which required the
roofs to be similar or matching to the house to prevent industrial looking buildings in the
residential neighborhoods. She noted it is Mr. Zoll's choice to choose the metal roofing
as opposed to asphalt shingles and come before the board for the variance.
She went over the board criteria required to meet the variance and said staff was
recommending denial. (See attached)
Mr. McPartlan asked if the board could approve metal roof for the house and when the
garage roof gives out, require it to match at that time.
Mr. Dodd said if they approve this, there will be any number of residents to come
forward especially since the insurance companies are forcing the replacement of a lot of
roofs right now. There are considerations on both sides of this.
The Community Development Manager said she wasn't sure if the board could put a
covenant on the property by requiring the garage to be a metal roof in the future. The
City Manager said the challenge becomes if Mr. Zoll was to sell the property, how the
City would ensure the new owner will match the roofs.
The City Attorney said he concurred with the Community Development Manager and the
City Manager and noted the code requires that they must follow the criteria and he didn't
see how they could enforce changing the roof material on a new property owner.
In response to Mr. Nunn, the Community Development Manager said when permits come
in for roofing a house there isn't any information on the application asking there is a
Regular City Council,

matching accessory structure. Staff had only caught this application because the custom
garage went before Planning and Zoning Commission.
Mr. Nunn said while there is a code that the accessory structure must match the main
dwelling, but there isn't a code that if you re -roof your house, you must now re -roof the
accessory structure. The challenge is that the City is aware of the accessory structure and
in the future the disclosure of an accessory structure might be added to the building
permit application.
He stated that maybe it could be approved based on the fact there isn't a code saying that
when re -roofing a house it has to match the accessory structure. The code deals with
building a new accessory structure not with re -roofing the house.
Vice Chairman Jones agreed, the code does speak to building the structure
The City Manager said the intent of the code is that the accessory structure should match
the ancillary structure.
The Community Development Manager said the Cade provides that an accessory
structure between 501 and 750 sq. ft. shall be compatible with the primary residence. In
another case, there was an accessory structure that was just approved by the Planning and
Zoning Commission with different materials with the condition that the applicant will
paint the metal roof.
Mr. Dodd said from what he is hearing that he was inclined to approve the variance.
Mr. Nunn started to make a motion to approve. The Community Development Manager
asked that a condition be that the metal roof be painted to match the garage roof.
Mr. Zoll said it was his understanding that painted metal roofs have to be re -painted from
time to time. He said that he would install a metal roof on the garage when it was
needed.
Mr. McPartlan noted that he didn't have a chance to speak to his wife about painting the
metal roof.
Mr. Nunn withdrew his motion.
Gary Raymond said he supported Mr. Zoll's application.
Mr. Nunn said this might be unenforceable or tough to enforce; they might have to go
with the code.
Kelly Dixon said there are lesser grades of metal that might be less expensive or a higher
grade of shingles which might be a solution for the applicant.

Mr. Zoll said he would just like to get the metal roof; the detached garage has another ten
years of life and when it goes, he will put a metal roof on it. He doesn't plan on moving.
The Community Development Manager said staff recommended denial because it doesn't
meet criteria; if it was approved staff recommended that the colors match.
Vice Chairman Jones said he was concerned with difference in age with the roofs.
MOTION by Mr. McPartlan and SECOND by Vice Chairman Jones to approve the
variance at whatever color Mr. Zoll would like.
Mr. Nunn said while you can put any kind of roof you want on your house but when you
build an accessory structure, the code provides that it match. While it was not the friendly
answer, he was concerned with the larger picture in making future decisions
Mr. Dodd said while previously he was inclined to approve but upon reviewing the
criteria with the Community Development Manager, he was probably going to vote no.

MOTION by Mr. Nunn and SECOND by Mr. Dodd to deny Mr. Zoll's request for a

circumstances, and it was the right thing. Mr. McPartlan noted that Mr. Zoll could have
just applied for the roofing permit.

quickly such as the financial director, the city manager and city clerk. He said Council is
being short sighted in not providing backup for the CFO and City Manager.
He said with the upcoming election, they need to replace two out of the five council
members to maintain the excellence they have been experiencing in the coming years.
Vice Mayor Jones asked him to avoid his commentary on who should serve.
Mr. McGinn said they should be committed to attending County and district meetings and
be proactive in the support on what is happening in the County. Vice Mayor Jones
advised that Council Members do attend those meetings.
Mr. McGinn's final comment was that it was important that the public understood how
the upcoming Community Development District (CDD) will impact the City. Vice
Mayor Jones advised the CDD public hearing has been rescheduled to October 181h.
Dr. Graham Cox said with regard to the Constitution Week Proclamation, he
recommended that the public read the fascinating book First Principles: What America's
Founders Learned from the Greeks and Romans and How That Shaped Our Country by
Thomas E. Ricks.
Dr. Cox commended the City for completing the quality of life survey and thanked
Council for moving the annexation hearing to December.

The City Attorney advised staff is moving forward with labor negotiations; the police
have voted in International Union of Police Associations to begin negotiations on
September 15 at 9:00 am then the Public Employees Relations Commission will approve
the contract for the general employees and they will have an election to begin
negotiations.

A. Council M
Council Member Dodd said at the Budget Advisory Review meeting it was referenced by
a board member that there have been 17 years where the new millage rate for the next
fiscal year was less than the millage rate for the prior fiscal year. It doesn't mean that
they didn't increase taxes; it meant that the millage rate increased at a rate less than the
previous year's millage rate. The interesting thing is the City has grown quite a bit and it
was financed out of new construction.
He said with regard to the citizen's survey, the City Manager has developed metrics on
how the City staff is operating and with the results of the Citizens Engagement Survey he
would like to sit down as a Council and develop a series of statements to go into the
construction of a strategic plan. The mission statement drives the objective that Council
wants and the City Manager drives those objectives into staff to accomplish those. He
asked for a consensus if they should ask the City Manager to set that process up with
members of the Chamber of Commerce and members of the citizenry to provide input.
It was the consensus of Vice Mayor Jones, Council Member Nunn and Council Member
McPartlan to set something up after the election.

Council Member Dodd asked if Council would like to discuss the proposed Community
Development District (CDD) noting that Liberty Park will be the tipping point for
Schumann Drive and Barber Street. He suggested they draft a response to the CDD
attorney that the City would like to use some of the transportation impact funds to correct
problems that are going to occur at Barber and Schumann.
Vice Mayor Jones noted that Liberty Park was approved in 2008 and if they did a traffic
impact study at that time, we need another one.
It was the consensus of Council to have the City Manager contact the CDD attorney.
Council Member Dodd thanked staff for their work on the annexation agreement. Staff is
doing everything they can to protect the citizens and the owner of the property.

D. Council Member McPartlan
Council Member McPartlan said recently he spoke about an elderly senior that the
Veterans Council assisted with and he reported that in addition to helping her with her
water bill and re -roofing her house, they installed grab bars for her safety in the
bathroom. He encouraged those that might benefit from assistance to contact the Veterans
Council.
E. Council Member Nunn
Council Member Nunn also reported that he worked with the Veterans Council to help a
resident with two months of rent. The Council is there to help if needed.
Council Member Nunn explained that discretionary sales tax (DST) funds are revenues
received from people paying sales tax when they shop and the beauty of it is that tourists
and visitors are contributing to the increased account as noted on page 33 of the agenda
backup.

CITY ATTORNEY'S SCRIPT FOR THE SEPTEMBER 13, 2022
ls` MILLAGE AND BUDGET HEARING
Thank you Mr. Mayor, Vice Mayor & Council Members:
This is the first of two (2) Millage and Budget Hearings. Tonight you are dealing with tentative
millage and tentative budget. During the next Budget Hearing tentatively set for September 28,
ZQ22, subject to Council approval, you will be considering the final millage rate and final budget.
This Hearing is IAW Florida Statute 200.065 — Method of Fixing Millage. In Subsection (2)
(c) which reads in part:
"Prior to the conclusion of the hearing, the governing body of the taxing authority shall
amend the tentative budget as it sees fit, adopt the amended tentative budget, re -compute
its proposed millage rate and publicly announce the percent, if any, by which the re-
computed proposed millage rate exceeds the rolled back rate computed pursuant to
Subsection(]). That percent shall be characterized as the percentage increase in
property taxes tentatively adopted by the governing body."
Further, Subsection (2) (d) reads in part:
"Within 15 days after the meeting adopting the tentative budget, the taxing authority shall
advertise ... its intent to finally adopt a millage rate and budget " along with the final
hearing date .... In no event may the millage rate adopted pursuant to this paragraph
exceed the millage rate tentatively adopted pursuant to paragraph (c) ".
Further, Subsection (2) (e) (1) indicates that in these Hearings:
"The first substantive issue discussed shall be the percentage increase in millage over the
rolled -back rate necessary to fund the budget, if any, and the specific purposes for which
ad valorem tax revenues are being increased. During such discussion, the governing
body shall hear comments regarding the proposed increase and explain the reasons for
the proposed increase over the rolled -back rate. The general public shall be allowed to
speak and to ask questions prior to adoption of any measures by the governing body. The
governing body shall adopt its tentative or final millage rate prior to adopting its
tentative or final budget."
So while I am reading them together, the law requires that you must consider the millage rate
first before the budget.
So tonight you will be considering Resolutions No R=-22-22 & R-22-23
Read titles of two resolutions:
R2T2 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY,

INFLATION INDICATORS
• Inflation fell slightly in the beginning of the pandemic but
then rebounded and rose quickly in the United States as
well as in many other countries.
• Widespread shortages early in the pandemic affected
nearly all categories of consumer goods.
• A hot housing market, component shortages and supply
chain disruptions are some of the reasons inflation is
likely to stay elevated.
• Prices of new cars, trucks, appliances and computers
continued their upward march because of a shortage of
needed semiconductors.
• Rising wages for workers amid a labor shortage are
likely behind the steady increase in frontline labor costs.
• Shipping capacity constraints also find their way into
price increases as businesses pass on cost increases to
consumers.
• Gasoline experts see prices rising to $5 or more per
gallon, and JPMorgan analysts are even forecasting a
national average of $6.20 per gallon in August 2022.

• Inflation drivers include: 1) increase in LNG exports with US export
0 infrastructure at max 2) higher demand outside the power sector
Natural Gas ' Natural gas prices have been racing higher on a combination of
Wksupply concerns and rising demand
• Natural gas is expected to keep rising with events such as the ,
Russia/Ukraine war pressuring the supply market
Demand is up, supply is flat, and inventories are down. This is
exacerbated by falling refinery capacity and geopolitical events
adversely affecting supply
Oil OPEC is gradually increasing oil production after limiting it due to a
Diesel Fuel decreased demand for oil during the pandemic. Some capacity
being converted to Renewable Diesel
• National driver shortage continues to put pressure on labor and
driving increase in rates
Transport & CPI / Fuel Increase in fuel costs drive transportation rates. Industry general i
Logistics guidelines indicate fuel makes up 5% of hauler cost
Fort congestion, spot market rates, and equipment shortages also
impacting costs

CDL AVAILABILITY - EXTERNAL CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
�riri scirrauu tiva 19� tr
The industry has seen a 40 % drop
in CDL training due to CDL school
closures.
20 % of truck schools are still
closed, while those open graduate
fewer students due to social
distancing.
The Commercial Vehicle Training
Association (CVTA) shares the
closure of these agencies and
leaves many future drivers (up to
40,000) unable to obtain
commercial learners permits and
CDLs.
Employers apprentice programs are
creating training opportunities for
internal and external talent.
up DEMAND
Demand for Drivers has tripled
due to drastic changes in the
economy caused by the pandemic
such as increases in online
shopping.
Drivers for Amazon, FedEx, and
UPS, local or last mile delivery do
not require a CDL.
This is reducing the number of
CDL applications in every State,
as workers who would typically get
a CDL, are not.
Many recruiting agencies will not
support Driver roles given the
shortage in the labor market.
NE&M di iel66%iIH
Federal unemployment subsidies
(up to $400/wk) added to State
unemployment insurance exceeds
Drivers' pay in some locations.
Federal stimulus increased
unemployment benefits which
has "couched" many drivers who
discovered they could earn more by
staying home rather than being on
the road. (Bureau of Labor
Statistics).

40,000 drivers were removed (-1
of driving tome) from January —
September 2020 due to failed drug
test results, most of which were
from marijuana use.
Recreational Marijuana is legal in
14 States and 4 territories in the
US and Canada.
Reduced commercial driver training
and licensing due to the pandemic
and the Drug & Alcohol
Clearinghouse have resulted in
nearly 200,000 fewer drivers as
we enter 2021. (U.S. Xpress)
WM's LABOR SHORTAGE MITIGATION EFFORTS
Truck driver shortages: Driver requirements have become more stringent, and
the driver workforce is aging, attracting fewer younger drivers. There is
extreme competition in industry.
SOLUTIONS: Waste Management focused on five main levers
- Improve Compensation - Increase pay; offer sign -on and retention bonuses;
employee referral bonuses and referral retention bonuses. Introduced free
education for all employees
- Streamline area hiring processes - Identify dedicated interviewers and Area
Hiring Teams; provide candidates immediate feedback
- Source candidates faster - Leverage a centralized advertising strategy; build
targeted campaigns; hosted in -person hiring events with proper safety
protocols
- Re -open the Arizona and FL Training Centers - Train new drivers in person
with the proper safety protocols
- Improve On the Job Training - Increase connection and retention of new
drivers to increase retention rate
