Approve Funding of $17 935 to Harrington's Mobile Home Service to Move Airport Security Building (Airport Director Transmittal, Three Proposals) 2 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Three The Airport Director presented the request for approval, and said he would clarify that the concrete pad was included in the cost. In response to Mr. Paternoster, the Airport Director said he was contacted by a lessee to inform him that a family would be housed in the security building, and agreed with Mr. Paternoster that there was a lack of communication between the City and the FAA as to the use of this building. He further said, as it has been stated by the City Attorney, it is sometimes hard to have FAA declare a judgment. He then said when FAA was notified that a family was going in, they wanted the building moved. MOTION by Ms. Simchick, and SECOND by Mr. Neglia, to approve funding in the amount of $17,935 to Harrington's Mobile Home Service to move the airport security building. Roll call vote result was as follows: Ayes: Simchick, Wolff, Coy, Neglia, Paternoster Nays: None Passed 07.114 B. Resolution No. R-07-20 -Joint Participation Agreement for Airport Layout Plan 11-43 Update (Airport Director Transmittal, R-07-20, JPA) A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION JOINT PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT WITH FDOT TO PROVIDE FUNDING FOR AN AIRPORT LAYOUT PLAN UPDATE; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR EFFECTIVE DATE. The Airport Director presented the resolution approving the layout plan update joint participation agreement and responded to questions from City Council relative to frequency of master plan updates, noting by updating the layout plan he was able to move back the master plan update to 2012, and said if the City does the layout plan now, the City may be able to do another layout plan at that time as well. He further explained the Airport Improvement Plan program for grant funding, and said it would be highly unlikely that the FAA would turn down funding for the City to do the layout plan update. MOTION by Mr. Paternoster, and SECOND by Mr. Neglia, to adopt Resolution No. R-07-20. Roll call vote result was as follows: Ayes: Wolff, Coy, Neglia, Paternoster, Simchick Nays: None Passed 3 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Four MOTION by Ms. Simchick, and SECOND by Mayor Coy, to approve appropriation of $3,125.00 representing the City's match in the Airport Layout Plan Update from the proceeds of sale of fixed assets. Roll call vote result was as follows: Ayes: Coy, Neglia, Paternoster, Simchick, Wolff Nays: None Passed 07.115 C. Proposed Cemetery Rate Increase -Direct Staff Accordingly (City Clerk Transmittal, 44-81 R-02-30 Cemetery Code Sections, Cemetery Trust Fund Information, History, Other Cemetery Rates, Proposed Rate Resolution) The City Manager said lots are selling fast and rates need to be increased. The City Attorney said Council may want to restrict lots for Sebastian residents before they run out. The City Clerk explained that Roseland residents had paid the same rate as Sebastian residents due to a deed restriction which was removed in the 1950's but still honored to this date, and that staff was leaving this policy issue to Council to decide. Mayor Coy said she would like to give consideration to Sebastian residents and Mr. Paternoster and Mr. Neglia said they would like to discuss the consideration of Roseland residents at the next meeting. The City Clerk noted that the increased rates recommended by staff were on circle page 80 of the agenda packet. Mr. Wolff agreed with the recommended rate increase, and noted in this day the Roseland rate should be the same as for someone who lives in Vero Lake Estates and that the City needs to define residency. MOTION by Mr. Paternoster, and SECOND by Mr. Neglia, to approve the recommended rates. Roll call vote result was as follows: Ayes: Neglia, Paternoster, Simchick, Wolff, Coy Nays: None Passed The City Clerk said staff would bring back a rate resolution for final adoption and an ordinance for first reading to define residency to the next meeting. 4 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Five 07.025 D. Damien Gilliams - 806 Indian River Drive Sebastian Docks for Electric Permits 83-95 (Building Director Memo, City Attornev Memo, Excerpt of P & Z Minutes, Construction Board Order, Permit, City Attornev Memo, Certification Statement)(Site Plan and Electrical Plan Previously Provided Under Separate Cover Charles Sanford, special counsel for Damien Gilliams, gave a lengthy presentation relative to the docks which he believed were "grandfathered" to be rebuilt after the hurricanes. Mayor Coy asked if Mr. Sanford had documentation to back up his presentation requesting 50 boatslips. Mr. Wolff called for a point of order and requested Mr. Sanford to conclude his presentation. Mr. Sanford cited the City Attorney's memo to Growth Management dated April 23, 2007, asked Council to nullify Resolution No. R-97-27, and pass an ordinance to allow electrification of all boat slips. He asked for consideration of a third possibility which would be to amend R-97-27 to allowing the electrification of the boat slips. Damien Gilliams, 1623 US 1, Sebastian, said the pedestals were permitted and approved. Mayor Coy said the packet on this issue is extremely large, noting that Mr. Gilliams' problem was parking, and things were exchanged for parking and expanded deck space. She cautioned Council to make sure their statements are of fact and consider all the transactions that have happened between the City and Mr. Gilliams because the City has been more than fair. The City Attorney said there are two impediments, 1) the special use approval and 2) the conditions of the site plan. He further explained the special conditions of R-97-27 no longer exist so Council can nullify it but the same conditions are in site plan which can only be modified by the Planning & Zoning Commission. He clarified that site plan designates that boat slips for parking do not need electricity. Mayor Coy asked why a "transient" slip would need an electrical connection. 8:ss,o.m. Mr. Gilliams explained boats come from up north to spend the night or a few days and juice up. He concluded that the property had 49 electrified docks and the governor issued an order to allow reconstruction. 5 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Six Mayor Coy said Mr. Gilliams has expanded transient definition to other uses which may have other Code requirements and by providing electricity to boats he may have another business situation. Mr. Neglia asked the City Attorney if the City nullifies R-97-27, can Mr. Gilliams continue rebuilding. The City Attorney said nullifying resolution is good idea because it opens the possibilities to change. The City Attorney said the issue is to enable him to keep the capability to allow him to build the dock back as it was. He further said the file points out there has always been the issue for Mr. Gilliams to look for future off-site parking solutions such as valet or land near-by. Mr. Sanford said no one cautioned Mr. Gilliams from rebuilding. The City Attorney said the real issue is to have 10 slips be electrified, nullify R-97-27, and after the site plan submittal, a variance to allow parking. Mr. Paternoster said the City is trying to draw people to our City and if the marina can bring in boaters; he asked the City Attorney what Council can do to circumvent the process, and help Mr. Gilliams so people will come visit our community. The City Attorney said Council can amend parking requirements in the Riverfront District, change laws about electrification about visiting boatslips or parking for transient live-aboards. MOTION by Mr. Paternoster, and SECOND by Mr. Neglia, to nullify Resolution No. R-97-27. Mr. Wolff congratulated City Council for spending an hour on this tedious electrical issue; stated this man's problem needs to be solved; stated Council has got to move on and get down to business. Mayor Coy said she agreed Council has to move on, but they have to do it legally and through due process. Ms. Simchick asked if Council nullifies the resolution, would Council have to readdress the parking ordinance at a waterside facility. The City Attorney advised the key problem is there is something on the books that says he cannot use the remaining dock but Council could say electrification may happen every so many feet. Roll call vote result was as follows: Ayes: Paternoster, Simchick, Wolff, Coy, Neglia Nays: None 6 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Seven Passed There was a 3-2 (Coy and Neglia -nay) consensus of Council to direct the City Attorney to draft an ordinance to allow electrification of boat slip parking at waterside commercial facilities, and to bring the ordinance language to them before it goes to Planning and Zoning. Mayor Coy called recess from 9:00 pm to 9:15 pm. All members were present when the meeting was reconvened. 9. ANNOUNCEMENTS, PRESENTATIONS 9:15 p. m. 07.122 A. Presentation by North County Relay for Life Chairman Burkeen (no backup) Mayor Coy said Mr. Burkeen had requested this item be moved to the next meeting. 07.016 B. Rex Nelson -Presentation on Proposed Ocean Concrete (no backup) Rex Nelson, Fischer Circle, Sebastian, requested Council support in the form of a resolution to the Board of County Commissioners changing County code regarding allowing concrete plants in light industrial zoning. Ms. Simchick suggested the City Manager send a letter to the County such as he did with Fleming Street. Mr. Wolff said in the future he would appreciate receiving the language he was asking Council to address ahead of time. Mr. Nelson said he had sent language within the past few days. It was the consensus of Council to direct the City Manager to send the letter to Indian River County Planning and Zoning for their June 14"' meeting, and copy it to Mr. Nelson and each Council member and bring back a resolution at the next meeting which will be sent to the County Commission. Mr. Neglia asked for an outline of what they are proposing. 07.116 C. Presentation by Curt Oxford -Council Chambers City Logo Sign (Proposal, 97-99 Renderin Mr. Oxford was not present. The City Manager said he had met with Mr. Oxford who brought him a proposal for an official City sign for the Chambers at a cost of $6700. 7 Regular City Council Meeting June 13, 2007 Page Eight Mayor Coy said she said she would like to consider this, however, if the City is in a budget crunch perhaps Council can hold off. Ms. Simchick said she would rather wait until after the 22"d. Mr. Neglia said the City is not ready and Mr. Paternoster agreed. 10.
