RECOM MENDED ACTION Staff seeks Council direction. 1209 U8 HIGHWAY SEBASTIAN, FL 32958-3831 BUS. (772) 589-7777 ED SCHLITT, L.C. Over the course of time that we have been trying to contact the onwers of the critcal lots, there have been at least 8 written communications sent. Along with the letter there was always some information included so that owners had some education as to what was happening. A sales contract (offer) was also included at one time. Letters were sent with various return addesses....Pelican Island Audubon Society, Pelican Island School, ECO Troop, School District of Indian River County, and, my firm, Coldwell Banker. We have since learned that one of the parties, in fact, was receiving the information, but was simply not interested and therefore was not responding. None of the letters ever came back as undeliverable or return to sender. Of aH the parties that were contacted, knowing that all responded except for 3, one would suspect that, in fact, mail was being received. Please understand that we are hopeful that things can be worked out now that we have been able to speak with one of the owners, however, we feel that it would be in the best interest of the project if we could hope for a letter of support. Each Office Is Independently Owned And Operated. ED SCHLITT, L.C. 1209 US HIGHWAY #l SEBASTIAN, FL 32958-3831 BUS. (772) 589-7777 To whom it May Concern; The following is a rather lengthy yet very important chronology of the efforts of the children of ECO troop of Pelican Island Elementary School and their work to secure sensitive properties for a nature preserve and scrub jay habitat. My involvement began in wimer of 2000 when I was approached and asked to help secure lands in an area that is deemed critical for the preservation of the Florida scrub jay as well as other endangered species. The children had been involved in raising funds and were working with the Pelican Island Audubon Society, Florida Fish and Wildlife and the Indian River County School District. At that point (3) three lots had been secured. The challenge was fmding, phoning and working with the landowners in educating them to our mission and how they could help by selling their property. With over 25 initial parcels that were searched we were able to secure (4) four more lots by the end of June 2001. A few landowners did not want to sell at all (Pelican Island Place Block 579 lots 15 & 16) and Empire Terrace (Block 572 Lot 12). Due to a "glitch" in the funding we were advised that summer to stop our efforts since the situation had to be straightened out. The sad news is that the delay cost us the opportunity to secure some "critical parcels that were officially on the market. Our hands were tied. Hours and hours were spent trying to convince the owner of 2 of the still vacant parcels to work something out with a trade or purchase of other parcels. Eventually we were successful and were able to add Block 572 lots 9 + 10 to our portfolio. At this point we have acquired 15 lots, but our mission is incomplete. There are 3 lots that would "round out" the preserve with one in particular CRITICAL to the project. Please do understand that with the exception ora limited few, these parcels were NOT listed for sale. These owners are being searched out, contacted and educated as to what we are doing and why. Yes, there has been some success: Some owners have been delightful, some have been challenging, and others simply have not responded at all when the mail is the only source of contact. NO MAIL HAS EVER BEEN RETURNED! The Each Office Is independently Owned And Operated. search has educated us as to the Intemet and, in fact, I have even comacted next-door neighbors of some of the owners with listed phone numbers. I understand and know full well from experience that timing is important ....rest assured that the efforts continue on behalf of the children. Respectfully subgdtted, ouise Mu er, BROKER-SALESMAN / -,,2/- 0 3 UPDATE: We are delighted to say that we have FINALLY made contact with the owner of THE CRITICAL parcel. Our hope is that we will become successful in securing that lot. DOUGLASS SEE 19-31-39 -- ATH~ CT.

Meridan Street Tallahassee, FI 32399 To Whom It May Concern; November 26, 2001 This letter arrives on behalf of the children of Pelican Island Elementary School, it's Eco-Troop, and ALL the people involved in the continuing efforts to acquire land for the sole purpose of use as a nature preserve with a particular focus on the endangered scrub jay. Last Mamh ] was approached by a representative of the group for professional assistance fo act as a liaison to search out and contact owners of specific parcels and to secure as many of these lots as possible. Through their hard work the children had already acquired THREE and hoped to secure as many as 10 to 15 more,,....all in a very specific grid that would encompass well studied criteria and locations. Success was met on FOUR more units and we are closing on ANOTHER this week. That bdngs a total of EIGHT, What a wonderful story....BUT.., it could have had an even happier ending, Due to a last minute problem with the land acquisifion grant source, we were fearful that the four that were scheduled to close on May 29 would never close. As a REALTOR it was very embarrassing to tell those four property owners that were contracted to close on a specific date that there would be no dosing and we were not sure where the funds were and when they would arrive. We almost lost 2 of the lots to other buyers since we were 'out of conlract" The tTansfers finally did take place at the end of June to the delight of all involved, Unfortunately, these circumstances led to a call advising me to wait to contact the other owners in our specified and environmentally sensitive gdd ut~fil we knew that more money was HERE AND AVAILABLE. The fear being that once promises were made to sellers and contracts signed, we could be in jeopardy of losing more property, not to mention credibility. Finally in late August I was told to move fo~ard, that it was "full steam ahead"..., we did succeed on one more lot that will close this week. The very sad news is that due to this delay, four pdme lots were indeed lost to other buyers....we can talk all we want about the good that is being accomplished here. but in the real world it is about the money and most sellem will sell to whomever contracts first. Once we did get the committed funds, we approached buyers of two of these parcels (no houses had been started yet) and were told they were not interested in looking for other land or selling to us. So. the mission continues, Presently the ECO Troop has purchased 8 lots and we are making every attempt to pumhase a minimum of 10 more lots contiguous te the existing Aloa Lorton Nafure Treil. During a meeting today with seine of the principals of the group, I was authorized to work on securing more parcels...., a somewhat revised plan because of the loss of the pdme parcels on our previous wish list. Time is of the essence due to the rapid pace of growth in this particular area of SebsslJan. Our hope is that we can continue our efforts with success in working with the children for such a worthwhile cause. We must not delay....the future is the focus, but the future is now. , For the children. Louise Muller, GRI BROKER-SALESPERSON cc: Bonnie Swanson David Cox United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE ,~ou~h Flori~ Ecosystem Offlc~ Ootober 19, 1999 Mr. Oleg Smith: 1990 2$th St. Varo Beach, Florida 3~960 Smith: Thank you for ~he opportunity to discuss the possibility ofsecurlng Federal funding to asset ,Pelican Island lglamanta~y studm~ with ~cquisifion of habitat for thc threatened lS]orida scrub- jay. We believe file mos~ ap~opriatc source of fundlng would be through the Fish and Wildlife Service's Habitat Comervation Plans l'~,,a Acquisition Prol~am, which provides up to a 75 perc.cat match of non-Federal moniet for the acquisition of habitat for threa/ened and endangered species. Although we recol/llize the shld~li's efforts a~ b~ing independcnt o£th¢ nearly complete Habitat Conservation Plan for northern Indian River County, the propm'ties identified by the sl~lents/'or acquisition would augmelli habitat acquired under the.Habitat Colgservatioll Plan to protect scrnb-jays. ~ __ From our perspective, the proposed acqutsiliona appear to rne~t or exceed mary or,he criteria used in ranking fimding propoaals at the National lcvcl. ~ai ~alI~o'm-Ul~-fe~fla-l- funding f~z acclui~itions ihat will augm~ larger scalc Habkat Conservation Plans wkh many partners such as Cotmly m~t local goverrmaents have a better chancc of securiug funding than o~ers. I~ this ~egard, we believe the students' acquisition proposal, i, cornbiuaiion with the habita! acquisiti6m completed as pa~ of the northern India~ River County Habilat Con~ervatio,~ Plan, is an appropriate candidate fez funding under ou~ Acquisition Program. ~Fundi~g requcsts ate cumantly bcing solicited within our agency for Habitat Conservation Pla. us Land Acquisition and it is likely our timely response to this request will help the studcnts achieve their goals, tkovided the School Board approves the student,s proposed habi[at cqmsition efforts, the Fish und Wildlife Sorvicc stands ready ~ a~sist i~ th~ d~vclopment of a funding proposal. In the event the above rncntioned funds ar~ not secured, we wiU also belgu e.~loriug othcr possible funding sources for this importimt conservation effort. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION - JUSTIFICATION OF PROPOSAL L How does the proposed acquisition complement the HCP? Early ia the development of~e HCP, the Service and Applicants recogo.ized the biological importance habitat surroundiag P__~elican Island Elementary School The Applicants attempted to acquixe 47 residential lots,.including those currently proposed to be acquircd by the Pelican Island Elementary School Eeo-Troop, The Applicants had contacted every lot ow~ner and received affirmative responses from about one-half of thc owners who indicating a w~agness to sell. However, additional costs associated with local water son, icc fees for each undeveloped lot were established concurrent with efforts to acquire these lots. The increased cost of acquisition resulted in a recommendation by Indian River County's Land Acquisition Advisory Co~mnittee not to approve the pttrchase otthese 47 lots. As a result, the Applicm~t's abandoned acquisition of 47 undeveloped res/dential lots surrounding Pelican Island Elementary School end/ncluded them/n the HCP as occupied scrub-jay habi~t that would be impacted rather than protect¢cI. Therefore,._(~L~._~.l~t~s proposed to be acquired by the PeJican Island Elementary School. Eco- .~t a_p~ortion ortho. !o~_previously identified by the Applicants and Se~'~e as ,h . portan 3i t ida scrub- _ays- these lots are'contiguous with scr i6--j -y protected unde~'the HCP and would be i~lcluded trader the existing lmxd managemen~ program. Since none of these lots are currently identified for ~cquisition ~mder the HCP, efforts by Pelican Island Elementary Eeo-Troop to secure this habitat will enhance a~ augment habitat acquisition completed under the existing HCP. 2. Benefits of the land acquisition for listed, proposed, and candidate species. The area covered by the bICP encorapasses the southern periphery cfa scrub-jay n~etapopulafion in east- central Florida. Recent viability analyses indicate that this metapopulation is susceptibk to quasi-extinction and substantial population decl/n¢..Model projections with extensive habitat acquisition through, out:the metapopulation greatly reduced the quasi-extinction risk. l~abitat a~cquisition in the viciaiW o.f Pelican Island Elementary School was recommended as one of t~te ~tions to Inimmize risk to the southern subpopulati~ns of this t~aetapopulat~' The subpopulation of scrub-jays occupying the Pelican Island Elementary School property,and adjacent undeveloped residential lots represent five of the eight ka~own fangli~s of scrnb-jays withhi the southern most su, bpopulation of the east-central Florida scrub-jay metapopulation. The acquisition oftJle 1:8 residential lots will reduce _fu._t~oss of habit,at_due .to ant__i~c~Ea_t.e_d ~tial construction and create a buffer between occupied habitat and ur~ba_u -~._.ncroactunan, t~ The acquisition and protection of these 18 lots is expected to protect habitat ctu~rantly occupied by S~rub-jeys, result J.u the perpetual managentent of these habitat patches and decrease the risk of extirpation of scn~b:jays from southern subpopulation of this metapoptflation by iacreashag demograpl~ic colmectlvity, between subpopulations. 3. Benefits of the land acquisition for ecosystems. Scrub-jays occupy xeric uplands dominated by shrubby oaks. These habitat .types have decided dreanaticalJy over the past 100 years due to urball and agricultural uses - the dry, sandy softs are pre/erred to more hydric soils and wetlands that predomiaate much of Florida. Historically, xeric uplands along Florida's east ~1/29/~999 10:46 §615624288 USFWS PAGE 05 coast span nearly 200 miles from Flaglcr County south to Bmward Cotmty in a series of nearly continuous parallel narrow ridges. Much of what now remains are small, isolated patches of xeric uplands with tar~c gaps of urbau dcvclopmant between them. It has been estimate that 80- 95 percent or,he xeric uplands of thc east coast o£Florida have been lost or arc so degraded that their ecological functions and values are greatly reduced. This c. ommtmity type typically was subjected to intense periodic fires which reduced the tree canopy cover, allowing the proliferation of shrubby oaks. The natural f~re return interval for coastal xeric uplands varies betw~'n 3 and 50 years. Natural fires are now ra~e in this vegetative community due to human ,'md property safety concerns and the inability of small habitat patches to ignite and support sufficiently intense ..The acquisition of the 18 lots by Pelican Island Elementary Eeo-Troop represents an i~vestment. in a rare vegetative commlufi_l~. Although recent efforts by local, county and State entities have 'begun aggressive acquisition campaigas to protect and manage xeric uplands along Florida's east coast, current estimates indicate that less than five percent office historic acreage of this vegetative connnunity is now under public protection and management. The rernaini~.g undeveloped pstches of xeric uplands arc under increasing developiuent presst~re as Florida's htunan population contindes to grow. ~-.The acquisition of the 18 lots will protect a portion of the small remaining oak doininated scrub ',lin no. rthem Indian River County. In addition to the benefits to scrub-jays, the acquisition will /provide habitat for the threatened eastern indigo snake, the State listed gopher tortoise, as well as ~x numexous State listed Plants..

EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: None AMOUNT BUDGETED: None APPROPRIATION REQUIRED: None SUMMARY Presentation by Deborah A. Bradley, CPA, Audit Partner for Hoyman, Dobson & Company, P.A. independent auditors for the City of ~ebastian, regarding the Comprehensive Annual Financial Repor~ (CAFR) for the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2002. The CAFR has been provided to you under separate cover for review prior to presentation. RECOMMENDED ACTION None. lAD In order to procure our financing by receiving local government support, we would propose that the City defers the impact Fee as follows: Total Number of Units: 152 Total Fee: $146,200 - 152 * $9?5.00 Option A Defer the entire Impact Fee for a period of 15 years. During that period, the deferred fee will bear an interest rate of two percent (2%) which would accrue until the end of the 'i4:h year. At that time, the entire deferred Impact fee amount, plus the accrued interest would be due to the City. Option B Defer the entire impact Fee for a period of 13 years. During that period, the deferred fee wi[[ bear an interest rate of zero percent (0%) which would accrue until the end of the 11th year. At that time, the entire deferred Impact fee amount would be due to the City. To guarantee the City's receipt of the deferred impact Fees, we would agree to place the entire deferred Impact Fee (as well as accrued interest if that is the case) in escrow at the time of the issuance of building permits. That way, there can be no issue as to whether the fee will be paid at the expiration of the deferral period. The package that I have enclosed contains a project overview, site plan, unit plans, building elevations, site and unit amenity overview and a package on our company describing our commitment to quality developments. Additionally, a section of the Florida Housing Finance Corporation's Tax Credit Application showing the necessity of the local government support is enclosed. Lastly, I have included the State's form that must be signed showing the City's acknowledgment of an impact fee deferral. Please be certain to note in your discussion that we are NOT a non-profit entity and we DO pay annual real estate taxes, utility taxes and sales taxes. We strongly believe that the net long-term economic benefit to the City from our development far outweighs the short-term impact of the deferral of recreation fees, especially when considering the direct economic impact our development would have on the Louisiana Avenue corridor. I look forward to the opportunity to present my company's proposed development to the City Commission on February 12~h. Thank you for the opportunity. Ptease do not hesitate to call me with any questions regarding the enclosed information. Sincerely, 'ad Housing Partn rs, LLC lAD January 2, 2003 Via FedEx Mr. Terrence Moore, City Manager City of Sebastian 1225 Main Street Sebastian, FL 32958 Re: ,New Housing Development, Louisiana Avenue, Sebastian, FL Dear Mr. Moore! We met in November and have had several discussions since about my company's desire to develop a new housing development along Louisiana Avenue just south of Main Street in Sebastian. I would like to take an opportunity to describe our development plans with you. I am forwarding you a package on the development, to be known as Pelican Isles. The development will consist of 152 apartment units and eighteen (18) for sale townhomes situated in a well-landscaped setting with ample parking and a private lake. Apartments will be of high quality concrete construction with concrete roof tiles and will consist of one, two and three bedroom units. The units will be sized as follows: Unit Type Size 1 BR / 1 BA 762 2 BR / 2 BA 1 ~065 3 BR / 2 BA 1,277 Quantit~ 32 8O 40 There will be a series of ten (10) two-story buildings and a 3,156 square foot clubhouse. The development will have its own pool, tot !ors and a car care area. The clubhouse will feature a [ib. rary, tele~/ision room, computer-c-eoter arid-~xe~ise ~eom, -There*w~JJ.be.an on-site-manager and full time maintenance person to ensure that the development is maintained at all times. It should be noted that the zoning will permit a density of over 217 units on the apartment site (where we are only planning to develop 152 units) and a density of over 29 units on the townhome land (where we are only piannin§ to develop 18 units). As such, the open space on the site will be aesthetically pleasing and extremely generous. The development is to be financed with an allocation of low income housing tax credits (LiHTC) issued by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. In order to receive this allocation of iow income housing tax credits, the development must first show that there is ample ]ocaI government support for the planned development. Local government support is defined as anything from impact fee waivers to actual grants made by the local government for the project. We believe that City's the most practica] and least intrusive means of showing local support for the development would be in the form of a deferral of the Recreation impact Fee currently charged by the City (City of Sebastian Code Section 74-50, $975.00 per dwelling unit).

The payment stream for ali present value calculations (if contribution consists of a loan or defen-ed fee) should be provided behind the applicable exhibit tab. In order to be eligible for points for _a Local Government contribution, the contribution must provide a tangible economic benefit that results in a quantifiable cost reduction and must be given specifically because the D_development w/il provide affordable homing. Local Goverm'nent contributions that are not specifically made' for the benefit of affordable housing but are instead of general benefit to the area in which the Development is located will NOT qualify as a contribution to the Development. Further, the fact that no impact fees or other such£ees are.levied by a local jurisdiction for ANY type of development DOES NOT constitute a "Local Government Contribution" to the proposed Development. Similarly, if such fees ARE lev/ed by the local jurisdiction but the nature of the proposed Development exempts it (e.g., typically, a Rehabilitation Development is not subject to impact fees), for purposes of this form, no "Local Government Contribution" exists and no points will be awarded. State, federal, or Local Government funds initially obtained by or derived from a Local Government qualify as a Local Governmental contribution even though the funds are directly administered by an intermediary such as a housing finance authority, a community reinvestment corporation, or a state-certified Community Housing Development Organization, provided that they otherwise meet the requirements set forth in this Application, including those relating to the executed verification form. Local Government contributions that have not received final approval will not qualify as a Local Govermment contribution for ptuposes of th/s Application. HOPE VI ftmds may be used as a Local Government contribution. UAI016 IRcv 52 12-19-02 Dr~t~ The only Local Government contributions that will count for the purpose of scoring are: Monetary grants Loans with the exception of USDA RD funds '-' A one-year or more deferral ora fee beyond the date that it is routinely due Waiver of fees The contribution may not be included on the Development Cost Pro Forma nor may it be considered part of Development Cost for purposes of calculating HC basis or Developer's fee. The exception to the previous sentence is deferred Local Government fees, which may be shown on the Development Cost Pro Forma. All loans and fee deferrals must be present valued to determine the value of these contributions. Calculate the net present value of the payments using the discount rate, the 10 year Treasury note in effect as of the date of the >,@&P~ mnfi S,~ '~L ,Notice: cf Fund-,~ .......... j ~ ...... j and HC Notme of Credit Availability (NOCA) plus 285 basis points. Tkis figure may be obtained from the Corporation prior to the Application Deadline. A loan with a forgiveness provision requiring approval of the Local Government will be treated as a loan, rather than as a grant, for scoring purposes. The "Loan" verification form should be used. Grams that are provided after 12 months from the placed-in-service date must be present valued using FHFC's discount rate. To calculate the value of a Local Government below market interest rate loan: Calculate the net present value of the payments due to the Local Govenunent including any balloon payment of principal due on a non-amortizing or non-fully amortizing loan.

HC NoUce of Credit Availability (NOCA) plus 285 basis points. This figure may be obtained from the Corporation prior to the Application Deadline. Subtract the net present value of the loan payments from the original loan principal anaount. The remaining number is the Local Government contribution. 53 12-19-02 Draft Example: If the discount rate is assume~l to be 9% and the _btocal G~ovemment will provide a fully amortizing $1,000,000 loan at 3% for 15 years, the contribution is calculated as follows: Calculate the monthly payment of the $1,000,000 loan at 3% ($6,905.82). Calculate the net present value of the stream of $6,905.82 monthly payments over 15 years (180 months) using a 9% discount rate ($680,868.33). Subtract the net present value amount fi.om the okiginal principal loan amount m arrive at the value of the contribution ($1,000,000 - $680,868.33 = $319,131.67 value). Example: If the discount rate is. assumed tO be 9% and the Local Goverrnnent will provide aa interest only $1,000,000.00 loan at 3% for 15 years, the contribution is calculated as follows: Calculate the monthly payment of the $1,000,000 loan at 3%. Multiply the $1,000,000 by 3% and divide the result by 12. The answer is $2,500. As such, the loan payments for the fLrst i79 months are $2,500. The 180~ payment is the $2,500 plus the balloon payment of $1,000,000, which is $1,002,500. Calculate the net present value of the stream of the various monthly payments over 15 years (180 months) using a 9% discount rate ($507,032.96). Subtract the net present value amount from the original principal loan amount to arrive at the value of the contribution ($1,000,000 - $507,032.96 -- $492,967.04 value). SCORING: Local Government _eGontributions may be verified by Florid~ Housing Staff during the scorkig and appeals process. The governmem contact person listed on the Verification of Local Government Contribution Form(s) may be contacted to verify the nature and the amount of the contribution. If the amount and type of contribution is verified to be less than that represented in the Application, the Applicant will receive points only for the lesser amount. [f the amount and type of contribution cannot be verified, the Applicant will receive zero points for that contribution. In either case, the Applicant may also be subject to the consequences set forth in section 420.507(35), P.S., and Rule Chaptem 57 21 mud 67-48, F.A.C, as Scorers will use the Hewlett Packard 12C calculator or a sinfilar Hewlett Packard calculator m calculate the present value of a loan in order to determ/ne the amount of 4 I2-19-02 Draft the Local Government contribution. Scorers, where applicable, will adjust the amount of the Local Government contribution up or down depending on the results of these calculations. NOTE: Funds admirdstered by the Local Government, including federal funds and SHIP funds, may be included in the contribution as long as the appropriate verification form and ail required supporting documentation are included. For purposes of this form, USDA-RD funds will NOT count as a 'Local Government contribution'. NOTE: For waiver of fees, attach a sheet behind the Local Goverm-nant Verification of Contribution Form detailing how the amount of savings was calculated. For waivers of fees that are determined on a per unit basis, calculations should show for ct. ch ':,':iv:d f::, the amount waived per unit for each waived fee. Failure to attach a sheet showing these calculations will result in the contribution not being considered. NOTE: For loans and fee deferrals, attach a separate sheet behind the applicable Local Government Verification of Contribution Form showing the payment stream used to calculate the net present value of the conffibution. For example, a sheet of paper that stated the following would be acceptable: "The net present value of the Manatee County $500,000 loan was computed using a payment stream of $2,000 for 60 months, $3,000 for 60 months, and $5,000 for 60 months." Failure to attach a sheet that provides this information will result in the contribution not being considered. In order for an Application to achieve the max/mum 5 points, the Applicant must provide evidence of a contribution whose dollar amount is equal to or greater than the mount listed on the County Contribution List for the county in which the proposed Development will be located. Those Applications that do not have the necessary contributions to achieve maximum points will be scored on a pro-rata basis. Example: A Development is to be located in Sarasota County and has achieved a $75,000 .Local Government contribution. The County Contribution List states that a Development to be located in Sarasota County must obtain $150,000 in contributions to achieve 5 points. Therefore, in this example, the Development would receive 2.5 points (($75,000/$150,000) X 5). NOTE: Points will be rounded to two decimal places pc~ntz (3.345 rounded up to 3.35 and 3.3449 rounded down to 3.34).

The City Attorney responded that until the lot is used the easement could be required but it may remain vacant and council may grant approval upon the condition of requiring a 10 foot easement. The Growth Management Director stated the easement on the vacant lot may be in existence and that approval could be conditional if there is an easement and if there is not, a 10 foot easement would be required. Mr. Hill also asked about the meter boxes which would have to be relocated at the owner's expense. MOTION by Hill/Coniglio "1 would be inclined to approve this under the stipulation that if the owner of lot 8, block 170 does not have a 5 foot easement along that portion of the property line, then we would require a 10 foot easement on lot 8, block 170 actual western half."

She read from a prepared statement expressing her concern for the approach used by school representatives, whether it ethical, and stated that people in her neighborhood want to understand the need for 4 DRAFT RegularCi~Council Meeting Janua~22,2003 Page Five propedies that are seeded throughout the neighborhood. She asked the Council to consider the ramifications to the landowners themselves. Mayor Barnes responded that it was his understanding that the students were interested in pumhasing the remainder of lots to fill in properties adjacent to what they have already purchased. The City Manager said he had spoken to Pelican Island Elementary Principal Bonnie Swanson today and subsequent efforts have developed amicably between the landowners and the students. He further stated the Eco Troop will provide a presentation to answer Council's concerns at the February 12, 2003 meeting. Mrs. Mueller said she understands the students' passion, yet there is a proper way to approach people; and she handed out a summary of her statement (see attached). Mayor Barnes noted that the School Board meeting will be held in the Council Chambers on January 28, 2003 with a brief ceremony relative to the lots. 11, OLD BUSINESS 03.025 59-60 Ancillary Presentation by Camp, Dresser and McKee, Inc. Relative to the Master Stormwater Plan (Enqineerin.q Transmittal 1/15/03) The City Manager introduced Eric Groetke, Camp, Dresser and McKee, Inc., and noted that the final master plan will be brought back at a later date for formal adoption. Mr. Groetke introduced Doug Multon and Mike Schmidt, and noted they had distributed an updated version of the plan. He then gave a presentation on primary system conceptual costs at a total of $4.4 million; problem areas; estimated conceptual costs; SJRVVMD issues; alternatives analysis - pollutant load reduction; front yard swale problem areas; replacement scenarios; assumptions; permitting considerations and treatment costs; and recommendation for use of Easy Street as a pilot study for the Miami curb system. Mr. Groetke responded to questions from City Council relative to swale drainage vs. curb, and wet detention, and the need to move away from the swale system to take the City into the future. DR:AFT Regular City Council Meeting January 22, 2003 Page Six The City Manager said the most recent update does incorporate curb and gutter. Mr. Hill reiterated that there needs to be an outline of how the City's drainage will be addressed over a twenty year period. Russ Owen, Columbus Street, Sebastian, suggested installation of pumps to push water to retention areas. Robert Pliska, Sebastian, said Miami curbing will break off the edge of roads, and that building codes relative to driveways will have to be changed. The City Manager said Schumann Drive has had curb and gutter since the 1950's. The Finance Director gave a brief presentation on the re-evaluation of the stormwater bond, stating it was more applicable to apply for available funds from Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) and bond the balance if necessary. He explained the $48 stormwater assessment per ERU was not designed to put Miami curbing in front of everyone's houses. He said staff would not proceed with the bond until they come back to Council with an evaluation of the needed bond amount. It was noted that the newer developments have curb and gutter. The City Manager said later in 2003 once the plan is adopted, discussions relative to grant funding will be held with EPA and St. Johns. It was suggested that Planning and Zoning and Growth Management meet with the City Attorney to start the process of amending the future subdivision requirements to include curb provisions. Mayor Barnes called recess at 8:28 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at 8:41 p.m. All members were present. 03.026 6'~-62 Parking on Coolidqe Street (Enqineerinq Transmittal 1/15/03) The City Engineer recommendation was to permanently prohibit parking on the south side of Coolidge Street and the Public Works Director recommended the north side.

Mayor Barnes said he had discussed this matter with Supervisor of Elections Kay Clem and she had advised him that the City seats may appear at the end of very full ballots in November and that a new proposal forming super voting areas that would allow people to vote a week prior to an election might be more helpful with the City's intent to increase voter turnout.

He also advised that the Supervisor would be happy to speak to Council if requested to do so.

When the current contract was approved through City Council sidewalks were not included.

Regan Masonry has performed many jobs for the city in the past and has always done good work and in a timely manner. Staff is currently asking that an amendment to his current contract be approved to include concrete work "form, pour, and finish" at the same rate as "pour and finish", $1.60 per SF. This is an excellent deal for the city. Staffwill upon Council approval, initiate all concrete work with Regan Masonry on future budgeted projects for the stated $1.60 per square foot price.

Physically, the property is located to the east of U.S. 1 across from the St. Sebastian Catholic Church, immediately north of the Sebastian Heart Center. On February 21, 2002, Dr. Shalhoub obtained site plan approval for a 1,925 SF medical facility for lot 19 located immediately east of the subject property. The property is very long and narrow and triangular in shape. Due to lot characteristics, Dr. Shalhoub was very limited in designing his proposed medical center. Realizing this, he decided to buy lot 18, which he now desires to annex to provide ample area for a second medical building, along with associated parking, and other required site improvements. Adding lot 18 will provide Dr. Shalhoub with the ability to des/gu a more efficient, and logical site plan. Furthermore, the City Council passed the first reading of Ordinance No. O-03-01 at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting held January 22, 2003.
