City Council Information Letter
July '19, 2002
Schumann Drive Irri.qation System
As referenced in the attached Notice of Award/Notice to Proceed, please be
advised that the Schumann Drive Irrigation System Installation Program will
officially begin Monday July 22"d, pursuant to the Agreement with Irrigation
Consultants Unlimited, Inc. authorized during your June 26th regular
meeting. This arrangement will also incorporate additional plantings to
accommodate and beautify Schumann Drive medians and the thoroughfare
itself. Work is anticipated to take approximately five weeks. By contract
however, Irrigation Consultants Unlimited, Inc. has six weeks to complete
the job.
Runway 4-22 Li,qhtin.q Installation
As referenced in the attached second Notice to Proceed, please be advised
that the Sebastian Municipal Airport (SMA) Runway 4-22 Edge Lighting
Program will begin Tuesday July 23rd. This project will take a considerable
amount of time to implement, approximately five months or so. As such,
Runway 4-22 will cease operations for brief periods of time during
construction. In addition, all SMA runways may have to be closed for a few
hours to accommodate specific improvement activities between the Runway
13-31 and 4-22 intersection. Airport Director Jason Milewski will maintain
communication with all tenants and airport users for the duration of the
project, so as to provide continuous updates accordingly.
Lund Property on Louisiana Avenue-
You will recall a presentation during your last meeting by Louisiana Avenue
resident Mark Lund relative to his request to have the City of Sebastian
City Council Information Letter

Page 2
waive a four-year-old $7,500 lien levied against his single-family residence
located at 1053 Louisiana Avenue. My office has recently learned that the
house is for sale. As such, in addition to his unwillingness to work with the
Code Enforcement Division to address additional violations that may exist at
and around his property, I cannot recommend working with his family to
forgive the lien. As I am sure that you are aware, liens and other
assessments are typically required to be satisfied prior and/or during such
real estate transactions. Accordingly, the City of Sebastian should not be
subjected to a contrary practice.
Parks Improvement Public Workshop
Various staff members, including myself will likely participate in tomorrow's
Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee Workshop. This arrangement
will be extremely helpful in that specific plans can be formally considered by
administration in compiling cost figures and overall scope of development
for future parks. Such dynamics are necessary to incorporate respective
final recommendations into the City of Sebastian's Capital Improvement
Program and Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Recommended Budget. As such, you
will notice a Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee report regarding the
July 20th workshop listed in your July 24th meeting agenda. Hopefully, both
meetings will foster solid productivity.
