CITY COUNCIL VACANCY (City Clerk Transmittal 1/5/05, Applications, Eligibility
Forms)
A. Consider Fillin.q Vacancy
There was no public input.
Mayor McCollum said he has received many phone calls on this issue, that it is difficult to
select someone for the position because there are only four meetings left before the election
and it would take someone a long time to catch up. He said there are no decisions to be made
in the coming weeks on annexations until after the March election, only land use applications
tonight which will not come back to Council until probably April with the annexations.
He recommended, to meet Charter requirements, whoever is elected on March 8t~ be
appointed on March 9th to fill the vacancy; and said he would not be in a position to support
anyone tonight nor will obstruct the land use issues.
The rest of Council agreed to wait to appoint the vacancy and thanked all applicants who
expressed an interest in the position.
On a MOTION by Mayor McCollum and SECOND by Mr. Coniglio the filling of the vacancy
was tabled until Mamh 9 and at that time the appointment of the individual elected to Council
on March 8~ will be placed first thing on the agenda on a roll call vote of 4-0.
B Swearing in by City Clerk if Applicable
Not applicable.

Item C
The City Attorney noted that the easements have not yet been received and recommended
that the motion be changed to "acceptance upon receipt of Louisiana Avenue easement
dedications per approved engineering plans from the above mentioned property owners."

budget.
On a MOTION by Mr. Barczyk, and SECOND by Mr. Coniglio item D was approved on a roll
call of 4-0.
Item E
Mr. Barczyk said Council decided that all read closings for events are supposed to come before
council and all businesses notified, and asked if it is necessary to block off all of Indian River
Drive.
Ms. Monier and Beth Mitchell addressed City Council citing the agreement in place for this
event.
Mayor McCollum said Council had previously required that business owners be notified of these
uses, though he had discussed this issue with the City Manager yesterday who admitted it was
a ~confusion in instructions" thinking the City would notify for unscheduled events or non City-
sponsored events and that now, no matter what event, everyone will be notified.
Sal Neglia asked if beer and wine sales were always on the east side of the river, and
suggested using the park rather than the east side.
Beth Mitchell said traditionally they have served beer and wine, and the east side is used so
there can be a roped off area specifically set out for this use.
Ms. Monier reiterated that no changes have been made for this year's use. She apologized to
Mr. Gilliams for not notifying him but did recall noting the event at a past Council me~.
Mayor McCollum said this will be the first major event since the hurricane, an event the city is
ready for.
In response to Mr. Barczyk, the Chief said this is not something his department can't handle.

a later quasi-judicial hearing. He said the financial analysis submitted can be considered.
The Growth Management Director said that Council received conceptual layouts for
two of the three properties but he will limit his input to the land use. He recommended
approval for transmittal to DCA. He explained the reason for delay of submittal of
these applications in response to Mr. Barczyk based on many factors. In response to
Mayor McCollum, the Growth Management Director said reduction to three units per
acre for Iow density land use will go before Planning and Zoning in February and then
on to Council to be part of the City's comprehensive plan and eliminate the need for
executed covenant agreements.

INTRODUCTION OF NEW BUSINESS FROM THE PUBLIC
Item that has occulted or was discovered within the previous six months which is not othen~ise on the agenda -
sign-up required - limit of five minutes each speaker
Mary Ann Krueger, Sebastian, reported on problems with the clearing of the Ashbury
Subdivision.
Ann Putman, Sebastian, reiterated the concerns about Ashbury Subdivision. She asked Mr.
Moore the meaning of "clear cutting ten feet plus or minus' and recommended a citizens
oversight committee.
Sal Neglia, Sebastian, questioned why the City received a complaint on December 27 for an
unlicensed land clearing contractor and the Building Official refused to stop the work.
Andrea Coy, 333 Pineapple Street, Sebastian, exhibited photos of the clearing of Ashbury
Subdivision, and also questioned why the land clearing company was not stopped. She cited
other issues for which complaints were made and no action was taken by the City. She asked
Council to look into these allegations and a cease and desist on the Ashbury Subdivision until
it can be looked into.
The City Manager said he responded in wdting and shared them with Council. He said there
are several other agencies involved in this and the Building Official did a great job in his
response.
The City Attorney said the lack of tree survey, and not registering the license are violations of
code, clear cutting ten feet plus or minus is violated if you're getting into the forty foot area, so
clearly there are violations there and you can be taken to the Code Enforcement Board.
Damien Gilliams, Layport Drive, and Mr. Coniglio had an exchange of words and Mr. Giliams
then addressed the next agenda item.

Mr. Coniglio said the item should be tabled until the church is contacted. Ms. Monier said
