The City Manager reported on the Recreational Advisory Board meeting relative to the Schumann tennis
courts. He said in light of the absence of the County representatives, he had recommended the item be
deferred for an additional month to allow staff to get information from all three parties in a way the Board can
follow; said a citizen had discussed the Filbert Street tract and asked about developing it as passive park, and
suggested two alternatives to submit to Indian River County, suggesting it be placed on the next regular
agenda for discussion; and requested the paving program and the capital improvement program be placed on
a future agenda. He suggested he place the scheduling of these items on the April 29, 1998 public forum
agenda and City Council concurred.

Traffic; and reported that he had been contacted by a grants person with SJRWMD who said the City may be
eligible 50/50 for purchase of the Good Fellows Mobile Home Park and that he will pursue it.
The City Manager said Chief White had submitted a memo to him suggesting the City pass an ordinance
prohibiting skateboarding and bicycling on Schumam~ courts. Vice Mayor Wininger suggested Barber Street
Sports Complex be included, however, she suggested that a location be sought to allow skateboarding.
Mayor Sullivan said the law may changed relative to liability which may open up the door for this 'type of
activity; and reported on a meeting she had with Commissioner Adams and Pat Callahan regarding recreation
in the North County. Chief White addressed City Council on the need for a skateboarding ordinance and
there was a 4-1 (Paul - nay) consensus for the drafting of an ordinance.

Request from Jame~.arg[xMary Stough for Access over City Drainage ~ght-of_-Way for Five Acre
Parcel on Joy ]:]3y~r~ Driy~ (Cit~ Manager Transmittal 4/16/98,. q~toogh Letter 4/3/98, Map)
The City Manager gave a brief presentation on the request and suggested that Council consider
incorporating the property into the City.
Property owner James Stough, 7625 85th Street, Wabasso, and the prospective owners, addressed
City Council on a request for the City to allow them to construct a driveway over a City drainage
fight-of-way.
TAPE III - SIDE I (10:25 p.m.)
They said they had no plans to subdivide, did not want to be annexed, and had agreed to put in and
maintain the pipes.
Discussion took place on the City receiving services without being taxed, possibly annexing the
property, the possibility of future subdivision, and creating a provision for horses in the City on
larger tracts.
MOTION by CartwrighffNeuberger
i move to extend the meeting to 11.
VOICE VOTE on the motion carried 5-0.
A lengthy discussion continued on restricting the access to assure no future subdivision could be
developed. The City Attorney said the City can physically limit the size of the access so that no one
would want to develop there in the future, but the City could not charge for use of the access. The
City Engineer said she would like a long term agreement with the property owner that they would
maintain the pipe. The City Attorney said once access to the properly is approved, the City could not
take access away in the future.
MOTION by Cartwright/Neuberger
I move to allow access over the City's fifty foot drainage fight-of-way under the terms that
the pipes be sized specifically to the City Engineer's specifications with all costs, including
permitting, being the property owners' responsibility, not to exceed 30 foot in width.
VOICE VOTE on the motion carried 3-2. (Sullivan, Wininger - nay)
Mrs. Cartwright suggested thc remaining items be carried to thc beginning of the April 29, 1998
forum agenda. Council concurred.
Mayor Sullivan adjoumed the meeting at 11:00 p.m.
