He invited Council Members to participate in the next count and reflected on how important it is to help people. Parking at Pelican Diner Greg Hepler, owner of the Pelican Diner, brought up that he is having some problems with parking. Some fencing was put up near the diner for safety reasons, but this has taken away the extra parking. The speed limit is 18 mph, but he suggested that another speed bump could be placed in the parking lot near the entrance to slow drivers down. He needs enough parking to for the golfers and for the restaurant patrons. He also suggested that additional parking for golfers could be created near the Golf Shack. The City Manager gave his card to Mr. Hepler so they could discuss ideas to improve the parking issues at the Pelican Diner. Richard Gillmor of Sebastian reiterated that there are problems with the parking at the Pelican Diner and that an accident could happen because of some visibility issues. Signs can be put up but sometimes people just do not notice them.

Pruning of Shade Trees and Planned Renovations at Riverview Park Charlene Fuhrman brought up the recent pruning of the shade trees at Hardee Park. She thinks all of the parks need more shade trees. She is concerned about the upcoming renovations planned for Riverview Park that might take away more of the shade trees. She would like to see the addition of ping pong tables made out of concrete or the creation of bocce ball courts. The City Manager explained that some of the trimming of the oak trees is done for wind mitigation and to prevent hazards. 8. COMMITTEE REPORTS & APPOINTMENT - None 9.

Consideration of Ordinance No. 0-25-01 — Pron_ osed Future Land Use Map Amendment of 3.96 Acres off Dav Drive from Institutional to Low Densitv Residential The City Attorney read the title of Ordinance No. 0-25-01. Mayor McPartlan asked if anyone had any ex parte communication to disclose and no one responded. He then asked if the applicant was present and wished to make a presentation. Mr. Wesley Mills with Mills, Short, & Associates, representing the applicant, Kevin Hawkins, came forward and reviewed that the site is part of the Sebastian Highlands Unit 17 and is referred to as Tract N. This property currently has an Institutional Land Use classification, and his client proposes to change that land use to a low -density residential classification. The property directly north of the site is classified as low -density residential where a new subdivision will be constructed. The property directly south is also low - density residential. The property to the west is multifamily or medium -density residential. The Community Development Director explained that the applicant plans to construct no more than seven single-family homes on this parcel. The infrastructure is already in place. The parcel is surrounded by residential property and this change is in alignment with the surrounding area. Mayor McPartlan opened the public hearing for public input at 6:32 p.m. and asked if anyone wanted to speak in favor or against the request, and there was no response. MOTION by Vice Mayor Jones and SECOND by Council Member Dodd to approve Ordinance 0-25-01 changing the classification of Tract N of Sebastian Highlands Unit 17 from Institutional to Low -Density Residential with a second reading and public hearing scheduled for March 12, 2025. Council Member Dodd commented that this is the type of application that Council likes to see because the addition of seven houses on this parcel will not be intrusive at all for the Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 6 people that live on Day Drive. He said at some point Council will have to determine who will be responsible for the little section of road that comes off of Day Drive and goes into the new subdivision north of this parcel, but that is an issue for down the road. Roll call: Council Member Nunn - aye Mayor McPartlan - aye Vice Mayor Jones - aye Council Member Dixon - aye Council Member Dodd - aye Motion carried. 5-0 Mayor McPartlan closed the public hearing on Ordinance No. 0-25-01 at 6:34 p.m. 25.031 B.

The City Attorney read the title of Ordinance No. 0-25-02. The Mayor asked Council if they had any ex parte communication to disclose on this matter, and no one did. Mr. Wesley Mills, representing the applicant, and the Community Development Director had no new information to review. Ordinance No. 0-25-02, if approved, will change the zoning for Tract N from Public Service to Single Family Residential. Mayor McPartlan asked if anyone wanted to speak in favor or against the request, and there was no response.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS — None Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 7 13. NEW BUSINESS 25.034 A. Consideration of Ordinance No. 0-25-07 Amending- Chanter 70 of the Code of Ordinances to Include Provisions for Public Camninp- and Public Sleeping The City Attorney read the title of Ordinance No. 0-25-07. She explained that new legislation was passed at the state level via House Bill 1365-2024 which forbids municipalities from allowing public camping or public sleeping on any public properties. Therefore, Ordinance No. 0-25-07 makes clear how the City will address the potential for grievances related to public camping or public sleeping and comply with the requirements of Florida House Bill 1365-2024. Council Member Dodd noted that it appears from a reading of 0-25-07 that any individual can file a complaint against the City for not enforcing this and that there is a fine within the state statute. The City Attorney confirmed that is the case and that is why passing 0-25-07 is important in preventing litigation. , Council Member Dodd said he will vote in favor of the ordinance to be compliant with the state requirements but he is not in favor of someone being able to lodge a complaint against the City because they encounter someone asleep on a bench. - MOTION by Council Member Dodd and SECOND by Vice Mayor Jones to approve Ordinance 0-25-07 amending the Code of Ordinances to include provisions for public camping and public sleeping on City properties, with a second reading and public hearing scheduled for March 12, 2025. Mayor McPartlan asked for public input on this item, and there was none. Roll call: Vice Mayor Jones - aye Council Member Dixon - aye Council Member Dodd - aye Council Member Nunn - aye Mayor McPartlan - aye Motion carried. 5-0 25.033 B. Consideration of Acceptance of the 5-Year Sustainable Sebastian Action Plan The Community Development Director stated that this is the plan that was approved by the Natural Resources Board on February 4, 2025. This includes the goals and objectives that they will be working on over the next five years. Staff asked for approval from Council. MOTION by Council Member Nunn and SECOND by Council Member Dixon to approve the 5-Year Sustainable Sebastian Action Plan. Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 8 Roll call: Council Member Dixon - aye Council Member Dodd - aye Council Member Nunn - aye Mayor McPartlan - aye Vice Mayor Jones - aye Motion carried. 5-0 25.032 C. Consideration of a Purchase Order for $14.720.92 for Konica Minolta Business Solutions to Purchase the Leased Printers and Multifunction Devices and Consideration of Resolution R-25-05 Annroviniz a Piizavback of the Konica Minolta Business Solutions Sourcewell Contract (#030321-KON) for Maintenance Service and Suunlies The Procurement and Contracts Manager requested approval of this purchase order. The City is coming to the end of its lease for all of its printing devices. A request for information was sent out to see what other contracts were available for the City to piggyback on. After reviewing and comparing the options, staff felt it would be in the interest of the City to purchase the devices they had been leasing to save money in the long run. Council Member Dodd asked if the plan is to continue purchasing devices as needed or will the City at some point go back to leasing. The Procurement and Contracts Manager explained that in conversations with the City Manager they have decided to reconsider the needs of the City every two to three years. The goal is to provide printing in the most cost-effective manner until the City decides to enter into another five-year lease. Council Member Dodd clarified his question by asking if Council should be planning for the purchase of copy machines as a budgeted item under capital improvements. The City Manager said he anticipated when the City goes out to bid again that lease or buy options will be considered and budgeted for, and they will determine what is the most cost effective at that time. Vice Mayor Jones noted that most of the devices are now five years old and different departments have heavier copier needs than others. He asked if copiers and printers can be swapped around in order to make them last longer? The Procurement and Contracts Manager responded that machines are swapped around with that in mind. There are still leases that do not end until 2028 on the newer printers at the Public Works Department that may be switched to the higher -use locations within the City, which would be Finance Department and the Clerk's Office. Vice Mayor Jones asked if his understanding was correct that this will help save the City to save $13,000 to $14,000 each year and then in subsequent years as well. Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 9 The Procurement and Contracts Manager confirmed that is correct. The City will no longer be paying for leasing of the devices. In addition, to meet Sustainable Sebastian goals, the City is looking to reduce the amount of our printing and the number of printers needed. MOTION by Council Member Dodd and SECOND by Council Member Nunn to approve Resolution R-25-05 authorizing a piggyback on the Konica Minolta Business Solutions Sourcewell contract and approving the purchase order to purchase the formerly leased printers. Mayor McPartlan asked for public input, and there was none. Roll call: Council Member Dodd - aye Council Member Nunn - aye Mayor McPartlan - aye Vice Mayor Jones - aye Council Member Dixon - aye Motion carried. 5-0 25.036 D. Consideration of a Purchasing order for JL Midas Breathe Kleen Aire Not to Exceed $28,255 for HVAC Remediation and Authorize the Citv Manap-er or Designee to Execute The City Manager explained this is a purchase order for HVAC remediation in the Sebastian Municipal Airport Terminal Building. The second part of the request is asking for the utilization of Airport Reserve Funds. This is an emergency measure, and this amount was not budgeted in this fiscal year. The Airport Reserve Fund Balance of $483,940 will be reduced to $455,685 if this purchase order is approved. MOTION by Council Member Dodd and SECOND by Vice Mayor Jones to approve the purchase and the utilization of funds from the Airport Reserve Funds. Mayor McPartlan asked for public input, and there was none. Roll call: Council Member Nunn - aye Mayor McPartlan - aye Vice Mayor Jones - aye Council Member Dixon - aye Council Member Dodd - aye Motion carried. 5-0 25.035 E. Consideration of the Budp-et Calendar for Preparation of the Annual Budget and Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 The City Manager reviewed that the document before them is the FY 2025-2026 Budget Calendar and it shows the processes and deadlines that will be followed in the development of this year's annual budget. Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 10 He highlighted the dates of the City Council Budget Workshops are planned for July 17, 2025 and July 18, 2025. He noted that last year all of the workshops were done on the same day, but this year he would prefer to hold them over the course of two days in order to have more discussion in regard to budgeting within specific departments. He asked if anyone had a conflict with those dates. Council Member Dodd and Council Member Dixon both had a conflict on July 18, 2025. The City Manager asked if the workshops could be rescheduled to July 16, 2025 and July 17, 2025, and everyone was in agreement with those dates. The City Manager also stated they tried to schedule better to give Council about a week to review the budget numbers before the workshops, but the City does not receive the certified property values until the end of June. He plans to get the budget numbers to Council by July 9, 2025. MOTION by Council Member Nunn and SECOND by Council Member Dixon to approve the FY 2025-2026 Budget Calendar with the change of the City Council Budget Workshops being scheduled for July 16, 2025 and July 17, 2025. ; Mayor McPartlan asked for public input, and there was none. Roll call: Mayor McPartlan - aye Vice Mayor Jones - aye Council Member Dixon - aye Council Member Dodd - aye Council Member Nunn - aye Motion carried. 5-0 14. CITY ATTORNEY MATTERS The City Attorney stated that the Charter requires that the she come to City Council when there is a need to hire outside counsel. The City Manager had asked the Finance Director to look into pensions plans and what could be made available for the general employees of the City. They have gathered enough information that they now need some advice from a pension attorney. The City Attorney asked for direction and approval to retain outside counsel in an amount up to $15,000 to assist with pension questions. The Finance Director was also available for questions. The City Attorney added that the City can retain the same firm used previously. She also received confirmation from other city attorneys that the background of this firm is satisfactory. There was a consensus from Council to hire outside counsel for the pension questions. Vice Mayor Jones agreed and specifically commented on how important this matter is to protect City employees. Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 11 15. CITY MANAGER MATTERS The City Manager gave an update on the issues of speeding and traffic in the Layport Drive area. There was a speed study completed in the area from January 7, 2025 through January 14, 2025 and for that full week there were 589 trips in one direction and 629 trips in the other direction. The study was done on Layport right in the middle between the two curves between Fleming and Barber Street. The study was very close to the residence of the resident who had asked for the speed limit to be decreased in that area. The speed limit on this street is 30 mph. The average speed of the drivers was 26 mph. However, the City also takes into consideration the 85`h percentile, which is the speed at which 85% of the drivers feel is a safe and adequate speed, and during the speed test this was 33.7 mph for eastbound traffic and 34.6 mph for westbound traffic. This number is typically plus or minus 5 mph of what the speed should be. Staff will continue to evaluate and consider the addition of more speed limit signage for this portion of the roadway. Portable radar signs could be put out in the area as well for a period of time. After those measures have been taken, selective enhanced enforcement from the police department can be implemented and then follow up with another speed study to see if the measures made a difference. The 85`h percentile numbers are not alarming, but he also knows there are a small percentage of drivers who have been driving in the range of 45 to 49, which is about 6% of the traffic in this area. Mayor McPartlan asked if the speeding was happening at specific times. The City Manager responded that the speeding mostly took place between noon and 2:15 p.m. and again from 3:45 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Council Member Dodd suggested a sign like he has seen in Collier Creek that lists the fines which increase the more a driver's speed is above the limit. He slows down every time he sees that sign because he does not want to pay a $200 fine. Council Member Dixon recalled there used to be a similar sign on Indian River Drive. She comments that those signs were effective in slowing her down. Council Member Jones said you have to be careful with that because when the fines change, the sign has to be updated, and we do not want to be replacing signs all the time. 16. CITY CLERK MATTERS - None 17. CITY COUNCIL MATTERS A. Council Member Dixon encouraged everyone to slow down on the road and be kind to each other. She shared that at her full-time job, at the suggestion of the Student Resource Deputy, she is making how-to videos with her film students specifically on what to do if you get pulled over and what to do if you are in an accident. B. Council Member Dodd brought up that Members of the House and Senate in Tallahassee are about to begin their legislative session, and there are many Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 12 obtrusive bills being introduced in the Legislature right now that will impact municipalities, such as dramatically increasing exemptions on ad valorem taxes. There is talk of changing the way municipalities can control development. He urged everyone to contact Representative Brackett and Senator Grall. C. Vice Mayor Jones - None D. Mayor McPartlan said a gentleman he was out with the other night was talking about the crosswalks at Barber Street and Joy Haven Drive, as well as Barber Street and Concha Drive and noticing people driving a little more than 40 mph in these areas. He went down to the County Commission meeting along with the City Manager yesterday. The County Commission was discussing the joint meeting with the City of Sebastian in the fall of 2023. The County Commission was open to the County Administrator and the Chairman meeting with the city managers and mayors within the county. Mayor McPartlan would like the City Manager to request a meeting so that Sebastian can get an update on what is going with the sewer issues and asked if there was a consensus from Council for such a meeting to be planned. Council Member Dodd said he was not opposed to requesting the meeting, but he is not convinced that any action will come from such a meeting. He noted that there was also conversation about having a Mayor's Council. He was on the Council of Local Governments up until this last year and there were plenty of conversations, but no action was ever taken. He believes some of the city managers meet with other city managers within the county, but nothing has come out of that either. He would like to see honest, open dialogue between the County Commissioners and the City Council on the septic -to -sewer issues, not PowerPoint presentations. He would like to directly ask the County Commission if they will provide sanitary services to the City of Sebastian. He noted that a letter from the Sebastian Mayor was sent to the County Commission on January 27, 2025, asking the County to work with Sebastian on septic -to - sewer issues, and there has been no official response or even an acknowledgement that the letter was received. Council Member Dodd noted that there had been a previous meeting between himself, the City Manager, a County Commissioner, the County Administrator, and the head of the County Utility Department four months ago in which they discussed septic -to -sewer issues in the CRA and within Sebastian. The meeting resulted in an agreement that certain things would be done, but there has still been no action on those items. Council Member Nunn recalled that Sebastian assisted the County with putting a sewer pipe on Roseland Road. He recalls a meeting that the County had in Sebastian's Chambers and the County had expressed willingness to put anyone on Roseland Road on sewer service. He knows of two individuals on Roseland Road that contacted the County for sewer service, but they were told by the County they could not be set up with service because they are within the City of Sebastian. It seems the County has forgotten that the Regular City Council & CRA Meeting February 26, 2025 Page 13 City of Sebastian sits within Indian River County and assisted with the installation of the pipe along Roseland Road. Council Member Dodd reiterated his concern about the County public utility is not providing service to Sebastian and not communicating about whether they intend to provide service. City Council does not know what will be the cost for residents when they are required by the state of Florida set up sewer service or to install new septic tanks. This is a public utility refusing to provide service. Such a denial of service would not be acceptable if it were from Florida Power and Light, a natural gas company, or AT&T, and complaints could be brought before the Public Service Commission. Council Member Nunn pointed out they are obligated to serve the entire county and the City of Sebastian is part of the county. Mayor McPartlan and the City Manager will reach out for a meeting with the County and see what they can do on the septic -to -sewer issue. E. Council Member Nunn thanked everyone that had reached out to him after his father passed away recently. Council Member Nunn also brought up that when you drive through Cocoa Beach on state road Al A, there is a sign that says for the next 2 miles the entire road is a crosswalk area. This is an area where there is a lot of beach access, and he wondered if that would be appropriate in Sebastian for the mile and a half near the river to protect pedestrians. Vice Mayor Jones asked if that might conflict with state law. 18. Being no further business, Mayor McPartlan adjourned the Regular Council meeting at 7:17 p.m. Approved at the March12, 2025 Regular City Council meeting. 1AW�* Mayor Bob McPartlan ATTEST.• #1nette Williams
