make it a better place.
24.046 C. Proclamation and Presentation — Meals on Wheels - Karen Diegl. the President
and CEO of Senior Resource Association
Mayor Dodd read and presented the proclamation to Ms. Diegl who described the

24.047 D. Proclamation — Flood Awareness Week — March 4th to loth. 2024 - Community

24.048 E. John Titkanich. Jr.. ICMA-CM. AICP. Indian River Countv Administrator -
Sewer Line Extension to 490 US-1. Sebastian
Mr. Titkanich said regarding the extension of the sewer line to the No Name Bar,
the County did extend a two inch forced main line in the right of way which abuts
the property line of Mr. Gilliams' establishment. It was 100 linear feet to avoid
any question that he must connect to the sanitary sewer system when it became
available.
Regular City Council Meeting
February 28, 2024
Page 3
It is important to note that the County did not connect Mr. Gilliams' establishment
to the system. Staff met with Mr. Gilliams on January 3 which is prior to him
appearing before the Commission on January 23, which is one day prior to his
appearance before City Council. In addition to discussing the connection, he
requested a fee reduction or financial assistance to which staff said wasn't
possible. He is still responsible for the private costs to connect to the system --
connection fee of $5,329 and impact fees of $8,308. He did agree to finance the
impact fee for a simple interest loan over 5 year period and there is a lien on his
property. Mr. Titkanich explained the pipe sections come in manufactured 100
foot sections which is why the 100 foot section was extended. He was issued a
utilities connection permit on January 17 but has yet to pay his connection fee
thus he is not connected to the County's system. Statutes provide that an owner
of system that needs repairs must connect to an available system within 90 days;
County code states that no connection will be required unless capacity is
available.
Additionally statutes provide that an establishment be within 50 feet of the
property line as accessed by the right-of-way. Based on the County Attorney's
opinion, staff did extend the line to the system to eliminate any argument that Mr.
Gilliams might have concerning the availability of sanitary sewer to service his
property. This was concerning given the gravity of the pending order by the
Indian River County Environmental Control Hearing Board to abate the sanitary
nuisance created by Mr. Gilliams to connect to the system and the conditions he
has created by virtue of maintaining his property in such a manner.
On January 18, unbeknownst of the pending request to speak before the Board of
County Commission, staff met with Mr. Gilliams to discuss the cost of extending
the line from the stub out along Harrison to the No Name Bar. County personnel
performed the work except for the bore. The contractor provided the bore quote
on January 18, the requisition was entered on January 19, the purchase order on
January 23 and this time, the efficiency of govemment worked and the contractor
started work on January 24. Mr. Gilliam's appearance before County had no
bearing on the decision to extend the line. He asked the Commission the same
request that staff refused. Mr. Gilliams comments to City Council do not reflect
what transpired. He exaggerated the circumstances and the events. Mr. Titkanich
confirmed that County staff was never directed to provide assistance to Mr.
Gilliams.
He said he has had conversations with staff and senior staff related to sensitive
matters and he trusts that in the future they will be elevated to County
Administration and his comments will bring clarity to Council and the citizens.
He said it was unfortunate that it came to this and he apologized for the inaccurate
information.

Mayor Dodd opened the public hearing at 7:03 p.m. and the City Attorney read the title to
Resolution No. R-24-03. There were no ex parte communications to disclose. The City
Clerk swore in those who would provide testimony.
Elliese Shaughnessy, P.E. project engineer introduced herself as well as the project
owners, Sydney Allison Stoyka and Craig Stoyka. Ms. Shaughnessy displayed a
PowerPoint indicating the project location and surrounding properties as well as their
proposed conceptual plan. (See attached) She said the special use they are requesting is
not currently allowed anywhere in Sebastian. It will be an RV park that will be more like
a luxury campground with eight RV sites in addition to approximately five cottages with
the owner's home on the property as well. She noted they are planning to keep a lot of
the trees on the property along with the dense buffering around the property. The RV
sites will have full hook-ups that will include water and electric and the owners would
like to do short term rentals for those wanting a quieter place to stay. There will also be
an amenity center on site to provide an outdoor cooking area, dining space, showers and
laundry. The owners will stay on the property to provide 24/7 service to ensure a clean
environment. The owners said they agreed to most of the Planning and Zoning
Commission's conditions except for the 30 day maximum stay for the RV rentals; in

addition, they are also hoping for more flexibility on the unit count to make the best use
of the land as they map out the sites.
The Community Development Manager said for a special use permit they are just
considering the use with some of approvals shown in the conceptual plan. If it is
approved, the next step is for them to bring in a full site plan. On pages 107 & 108, there
are six conditions that staff requested and from the Planning & Zoning hearing, the
commission added six additional conditions. She said when this application came in they
examined the code for vacation rentals for less than 30 days. She said if a longer stay
was sought for the RVs, they would like advice from the City Attorney with regard to the
RVs versus the cottages. She said staff was okay with the 13 units but if the number is
changed, it would need to go back to Planning and Zoning. She went over the following
conditions:
1. The special use is granted for the proposed amount of RV pads and cottages as
shown on the 8/9/2023 Conceptual Plan for Sebastian RV Park (13). Any
proposed increase to that amount will require additional approval by City Council
and Planning and Zoning.
2. The maximum length of stay shall be limited to 90 days per state statue.
3. A traffic analysis would be required.
4. A full tree survey is required with submittal of the site plan that includes a
construction tree preservation plan and a long-term tree maintenance plan to be
approved as part of the site plan.
5. The RV Park shall be in compliance with all applicable Environmental Health
Department and Florida Statute regulations that apply to RV Parks and cottage
rentals.
6. No pads or cottages to be constructed on the east side of Indian River Drive.
7. Rules of operation shall be established by the owner and submitted to staff with
the site plan.
8. Stand-alone tent camping would be prohibited.
9. A minimum of one car parking space shall be provided for the RV pads, two for
the cottages and eight for the amenity center.
10. The size of the cottages shall not exceed 1,250 square feet in size.
Council Member Jones asked the City Attorney what number of units would trigger a
different statute. The Community Development Manager said if it remains a transient
type of use like a hotel/motel there are no density issues —they could have 40 or 50
Regular City Council Meeting
February 28, 2024
Page 10
rooms. If they are there for long term then density issues would kick in and there could
only be 8 units per acre.
Vice Mayor Dixon asked if they considered parking for the extra recreational amenities.
Ms. Stroyka said the RVs lots are oversized but they do need to consider adding spaces
for the extra amenities.
Mayor Dodd said he still has questions about waiting to set the number of units until the
submittal of the site plan. The City Attorney said Council has the ability to make the
recommendation as they see fit.
Mayor Dodd suggested they change the 30 day limit to what is in state statute. Council
Member Nunn agreed with Mayor Dodd. It was noted that the applicants originally
proposed 90 day stays.
The Community Development Manager pointed out that the application would expire
three years from the effective date if the RV Resort is not operational by that time.
Harry and Sarah Marshall, 825 Bailey Drive, own a property on Jackson Street, said she
was concerned about saving the lagoon and recommended that a full evaluation of the
water and sewer be done prior to the approval of the special use permit to help decide
how many units will be placed on the property. Mr. Marshall said the streets on Jackson
and north Central are not built for the behemoth trailers. He objected to the RV pads but
not the cottages.
The Community Development Manager stated that Mr. Marshall's concerns would be
considered and addressed during the site plan review along with the traffic analysis.

Resolution R-24-03 with the documented amendments for a special use RV Park.

given the disparity between the submitted quotes.

the other quotes were from general contractors. She said they cannot exceed the price
that they have submitted and she planned to hold them to it.
John Heath, Heath Monument Company, said he is familiar with AGG Restoration and
advised against moving forward with them. The City Manager assured Council that the
City will not pay the company unless we receive the services that we want.
