PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 5, 2008
QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING -SITE PLAN -HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS
- 50 ROOM HOTEL - 13070 US HIGHWAY #1 (directly east of St. Sebastian
Catholic Church) -PELICAN HOTELS, INC. -COMMERCIAL RIVERFRONT
(CR) ZONING DISTRICT
Mr. Cardinale opened the hearing and asked for ex parte communication. He then
swore in all persons to speak during this hearing. Mr. George White, project architect, of
Boca Raton, FL presented the application. He noted that the owners of this hotel also
own the Best Western on U.S. 1 and they have run a respectable business within the
city. Ms. King reviewed a unique situation of this property. It is located on an area that
has been designated in the comprehensive plan as an aquifer recharge area based on
the nature of the soils: Due to this it has some special constraints on it. They are limited
to no more than 35% of impermeable surface on the property. The applicant has
proposed some different materials for the drive and parking area, which must be
.reviewed and approved by the city engineer. They meet our parking requirements. This
type of business does not necessarily need a loading zone and the applicant has noted
there is adequate space without designating a specific loading zone. Ms. King noted the
conditions on page 9 of the staff report-and recommends approval with these conditions.
There was discussion regarding the Flexi-Pave material and Ms. Susan Holland with
Holland Engineering spoke about the field tests of Flexi-Pave.
The following people spoke on this application:
Mr. Bill Stuart, whose property abuts the site and is concerned about the stone wall and
noted he did not intend to remove his fence.
Dan Diamond, 130' Place, asked about dumpster location.
Ms. King summarized staff recommends approval of the site plan subject to the
conditions listed in the staff report with the addition of a seventh condition that the
applicant will work with the neighboring property owner to try to resolve the conflict
between the two fences. Mr. Stringer added a variation of this could be administratively
approved at the discretion of the Growth Management Director.
MOTION by Dodd/Buchanan to approve the site plan with the seven conditions as
presented by staff.
ROLL CALL: Mr. Dodd yes
Mr. Buchanan yes
Mr. Cardinale yes
Mr. Srinivasan yes
The vote was 40. Motion passed unanimously.
MEMBERS MATTERS:
Mr. Dodd asked why the structure came before them for approval when the slab for the
structure had already been constructed. Ms. Grohall said this may have been a property
they were bringing into code compliance. Mr. Cardinale asked what happens to
approved platted subdivisions that do not get developed. Ms Grohall said they can
request a site plan extension which could be administratively approved. However, the
2
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 5, 2008
plat extension must go before city council. There was discussion about dormant
projects.
DIRECTOR MATTERS:
Ms. Grohall welcomed Keith Srinivasan and said there are still two alternate positions
open. She followed up on the question from Chmn. Paul at a previous meeting about
the speed limit on Barber Street and how it slows just before the bend and explained that
is part of the requirements when entering a school zone. The speed limit goes from 35
to 30 then the 20-mile an hour school zone speed. Also, there will be three land
development code amendments for the next meeting. They are revisions to marina
parking, electrifying boat slips, and an amendment to the sign regulations.
CHAIRMAN MATTERS:
NONE
ATTORNEY MATTERS:
Mr. Stringer- informed the Commission that the city council has recently done a first
reading for cone-year residency requirement for planning and zoning commissioners.
Mr. Cardinale adjourned the meeting at 8:02 p.m. (06/05/08 sbl)

To: Planning and Zoning Co fission
From: Al Minner, City Manag
Date: June 12, 2008
Copies: Honorable Mayor and City Council
Recreation Advisory Board
Subject: 6-Year Capital Improvement Program
Attached is the. Recommended Capital Improvement Program for the period from FY 2008/09
through FY 2013/14. According to the City's Land Development Code, the Planning and
Zoning Commission shall approve the Capital Improvement Program before the City Council's
final adoption.
At the City Council Workshop June 11th, several adjustments were presented that had been
changed from a preliminary draft that had previously been given to the City Council. These
concerned the transfer of Local Option Gas Taxes to General Fund to cover some roadway costs
(which reduced funding available for street repaving and sidewalk repairs) and the addition of
certain projects that would be funded from Recreation Impact Fees. In the document you are
receiving, adjustments have been made to reflect those items.
For your. information, there were some other specific items brought up during the Workshop
that are not shown in the document you are receiving. One item concerns Schumann Park
which is scheduled for $80,000 in FY 2008/09 from Recreation Impact Fees. Based on the City
Council's discussion, I will be bringing back a plan to upgrade the Park with a full basketball
court and two additional tennis courts, plus new restrooms, signage and landscaping.
Racquetball courts will not be included. Another item was a request made by the Boys & Girls
club for the City to consider a contribution toward their project to build a covered basketball
court adjacent to their present facility in the range of $50-75,000. Also, a comment was made
regarding planning for a new community center. There were of course, many other comments
and opinions expressed but I wanted to mention these particular items to make it clear that the
current document has not shown these possible expenditures.
If you have any questions concerning the enclosed package, please do not hesitate to give me a
call. I can be reached at (772) 388-8200.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
FISCAL YEAR 2009-14
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
City of Sebastian's adopted financial policies requires the City to coordinate the development of the Capital
Improvement Program with the development of the strategic plan and operating budget, as well as ensuring
compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvement Element. Operating expenditures and
revenues associated with new capital improvements will be projected and included in the Capital
Improvement Program Five-Year Forecast. The Capital Improvement Program is updated and approved by
the City Council annually and encompasses a period of six years.
What are Capital Improvements?
Capital improvements include streets, buildings, building improvements, new parks; park
expansions/improvements, airport runways, infrastructure improvements, and major, one-time acquisitions of
equipment. Projects in the Capital Improvement Program generally cost more than $50,000 and last at least
five years.
Policies Used in Developing the Capital Improvement Program
All capital projects submitted for approval must be justified in terms of how the project supports the
achievement of the City's Strategic Priorities. Projects are prioritized and approved based on the relevancy
of the project to the City's Strategic Plan and the impact on the end stakeholder(s).
1. The City shall adopt an annual Capital Budget based on the Capital Improvement Program. Future
capital improvement expenditures necessitated by changes in population, real estate development, or
in economic base will be calculated and included in the capital improvement budget projections.
2. The originating department of the capital improvement project will identify the estimated costs and
funding sources for each capital project proposal before it is submitted to the City Council for
approval.
3. The City shall make all capital improvements in accordance with an adopted Capital Improvement
Program budget.
4. The City will determine and use the most prudent financial methods for acquisition of capital
improvement projects based upon market conditions at the time of acquisition.
Following is a six-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project Schedule for each requesting
department/division. In addition to the Airport Fund (AP), the C1P also includes projects funded by the
Local Option Gas Tax (LOGY), Discretionary Sales Tax (DST), Recreation Impact Fee (RIF), developer
contribution, debt financing, as well as State and Federal Grants. This year, we have also included the
Riverfront CRA. The CIP is intended to be a complete listing of projects needed for replacement or
improvement of the City's major equipment, facilities, roadways, and structures. Although, potential funding
has been identified, changes maybe made in conjunction with alternative sources as they become available
or adjustments become necessary due to reductions in projected revenues. The timing of projects identified
may also be altered from year to year to meet changing circumstances.

Re: Marina Parking/Electrical Zoning Text Amendments
Enclosed are the proposed Zoning Text Amendments that will be before the Planning & Zoning
Commission for public hearing on June 19, 2008. Proposed 2008 ZTA #1 addresses the
electrification of boat docks within marinas. Proposed 2008 ZTA #2 addresses parking
requirements for marina uses.
It has been the administrative practice of the City to deny electrical permits when the only
apparent purpose for electrical service is to further a use that is either not allowed or has not been
properly permitted. One example of the application of this practice was the denial of a request to
provide 220vo1t service to a vacant parcel on the riverfront. Since there was no legitimate use
approved. for that parcel, denial of the permit was viewed as a valid tool to avoid future
enforcement problems.- Based upon similar considerations, anapplication for an electrical permit
was denied at 806 Indian River Drive because existing boat slips were being provided electrical
outlets although the governing site plan approvals had surrendered the use of these slips.
Following an appeal of the denial of the electrical permit for 806 Indian River Drive, it was the
direction of Council that a means be devised to allow electrical outlets along such a dock, with
the thought that there could be some legitimate purposes for electrical service. An example
would be use of apower-washer to clean the decking. It was discussed that a standard based
upon distance was a potential solution.
As has been discussed with Council, merely changing the rules to allow electrification of boat
slips that are not approved for use will just perpetuate an enforcement problem. Limited parking
is the basis for the restrictions on the marina uses at 806 Indian River Drive. In reviewing the
Code to determine the best means of resolving the outstanding issues involving this site, it
appeared that the existing parking requirements. for marina uses might be overly burdensome.
The issue of marina parking was studied by P&Z at their meeting of March 6, 2008, and the
minutes of that meeting are attached.
While the proposed zoning text amendments probably will not provide a complete solution to the
issues at 806 Indian River Drive, changes to the parking standards should more accurately reflect
the actual needs of these uses.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA, AMENDING
CODE OF ORDINANCES SECTION 54-3-11.4(f) COASTAL RESOURCE
IMPACT ANALYSIS: MARINAS AND DOCK FACILITIES TO ADDRESS
ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING PLANS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY,
CONFLICTS AND EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, it is the desire of City Council to address the issue of electrical service to
marina dock;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, as follows:
Section 1. That Section 54-3-11.4 of the Code of Ordinances, City of Sebastian,
Florida, is hereby amended to read as follows:
Sec. 54-3-11.4. Coastal resource impact analysis.
(f) Marinas and ~ faclhties. The city shall not approve or marina
improvements until the applicant demonstrates compliance with all applicable
federal and state laws and administrative rules, as well as applicable policies of
regional agencies. Site plans shall include an environmental impact component
..................
..................
for all d~~l~ and marinas, which adequately address marina siting criteria cited
...............::.
herein. These plans must demonstrate to the city's satisfaction that the facilities
shall not adversely impact living marine resources, including, but not limited to,
seagrasses, estuarine waters, manatees and other living marine organisms. The
plans shall comply with the following criteria:
(1) The plan shall indicate the following:
a. Location relative to all potentially impacted natural marine resources.
b. Structural specifications.
c. Description of all impacted natural marine resources, including their
location and physical characteristics.
...............
d. The location of multi-slip clock or marina facilities shall be located so as
...........
to prevent or minimize dredging and shall not disturb seagrass beds or
adjacent wetlands.
e. Availability and location of sewage pump-out facilities.
f. Hurricane contingency plans.
g. Mitigation techniques proposed to compensate for any potential
environmental disruption.
h. An electrical and lighting layout plan. Docks may provide an outlet to
service each available boat slip or, otherwise, for every ten linear feet of
the dock. In addition to immediate environmental impacts, lighting shall
also be sensitive to the nearby nesting turtle population.
(2) New marinas shall not be allowed in or immediately adjacent to the
following sensitive areas
• Aquatic preserves;
• Marina sanctuaries;
• Estuarine sanctuaries; and
• Areas of essential manatee habitat, as determined by DEP.
(3) Marinas must have sufficient upland area for all non-water-dependent
uses. Dredging and filling of wetlands or open water in order to
accommodate uses that are not water-dependent shall not be allowed.
Exceptions may be granted in cases shown to be overwhelmingly in the
public interest, such as the presence of sensitive upland systems.
(4) Cumulative effects of several marinas and/or boat ramps in one area shall
be considered in the review of proposed marina projects.
(5) All new and expanded marinas shall provide a demonstration of
compliance with state water quality standards by maintaining a water
quality monitoring program approved by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (DEP).
(6) Grassbeds and other submerged habitat deemed valuable by DEP will be
subject to protection regardless of their size. DEP frequently imposes their
jurisdiction based on size and connection to other wetlands, so this may be
contradictory.
(7) In reviewing applications for new or expanded docking facilities, ways to
improve, mitigate, or reverse adverse environmental .impacts caused by
previous activities shall be explored. This may include shallowing dredged
areas, restoring wetland or submerged vegetation, or marking navigational
channels. Such mitigation or restoration may be a condition of approval of
new, renewed, or expanded facilities.
(8) Immediate access (ingress and egress) points shall be delineated by
channel markers, indicating speed limits, manatee area warnings, and any
other applicable regulations.
(9) All new or expanded marinas must provide treatment of stormwater run-
off from upland areas to the extent necessary to ensure that state water
quality standards are met at the point of discharge to waters of the state.
In addition, all requirements of the water management district and DEP
shall be met.
(10) Boat maintenance activities in new or expanded marina facilities shall be
located as far as possible from open water bodies in order to reduce
contamination of water bodies by toxic substances common to boat
maintenance. Run-off from boat maintenance must be collected and treated
prior to discharge.
(11) Open wet slips will be preferred to covered wet slips in marina design to
reduce shading of water bodies which result in lowered biological
productivity.
(12) Marina design shall incorporate natural wetland vegetative buffers
whenever possible near docking area and in access areas for erosion and
sedimentation control, run-off purification and habitat purposes.
(13) The West Indian manatee shall be afforded protection from boating
activities that may have an adverse impact upon the species. The following
criteria apply in the implementation of this policy:
a. Marina operators shall undertake the following manatee protection
measures in areas where manatees are known to occur:
1. Implement and maintain a manatee public awareness program which
will include posting signs to advise boat users .that manatees are an
endangered specie which frequents the waters of the region's estuaries
and lagoon;
2. Declare the waters in and around marinas as "idle speed" zones; and
3. Post phone number(s) to report an injured manatee.
b. Local manatee protection plans shall be included as part of the coastal
management and conservation elements of the comprehensive plan. The
plan should:
1. Assess the occurrence of manatee activity within the jurisdiction;
2. Document the number of manatee accidents and deaths;
3. Identify manatee habitats;
4. Determine the potential for adverse impacts to the manatee population
from various activities and identify the level of protection necessary to
ensure least possible interference; and
5. Recommend local mitigative actions to be undertaken in support of the
regional policy.
(14) In addition to the above listed criteria, accessory €~ and unwalled
.:...:..:.:.:..:.
boat shelters, davits, lifts and pilings shall be permitted and erected in
accordance with the following regulations.
..............
..................
a. All dock, piers or wharves and associated pilings, and all davits or lifts

DISCUSSION - CHANGES TO LDC SECTION 54-3-15.2, PARKING
REQUIREMENTS 8~ DEFINITIONS FOR MARINA USES
Chmn. Paul stated this is just discussion and review to see what direction the
commission would like to go with regard to this section of the regulations. Mr. Stringer
explained that there had been a site that was approved and it had in it~transient boat
slips. However, the P&Z minutes showed they talked about using the boat slips in lieu of
land parking spaces. This was confusing as there are provisions in the code for
transient live-aboards. Some discrepancies are aone-to-one parking for every slip. Ms.
Grohall ran a calculation showing what the current code requirements would be for a
1,200 sq. ft. commercial marina with 50 wet slips, 6 transients, a party boat that holds a
max of 45 people, 5 six-pack boats and a kayak rental facility with 16 kayaks. Their
parking needs would be 76 spaces. Two big issues with that is the marina-she felt they
could downsize the parking requirements for the marina itself. The other area where the
restrictions could be lessened is what is called transient slips, which are for overnight
types of boats that come in use the facilities, restaurants, bar, etc. Changing them from
a 1 to 1 to a 1 to 3 would give some relief.
Ms. Grohall explained a-new category she,-is suggesting, called "Temporary". In the past
the board has given some marinas a credit on their surface parking if they provide
spaces for boats to pull up and enjoy the restaurant or bar or other amenity. This would
codify that issue. She kept wet slips basically the same; as well as dry slips, charter
parry boats, six-pack. The one she did suggest a change is the rental facilities for small
water craft like kayaks, citing one parking space per one vessel a tough standard, so she
lessened that to 1 per 3 as a starting point for discussion.
There was discussion about the impact of the change to any facility currently operating.
Ms. Grohall said there are two that would have a positive impact. She did feel, however,
that the six-pack party boat rentals should be kept at two parking spaces for every six-
pack boat.
Ms. Grohall explained how the marina calculations would tie into an adjoining
restaurant's calculations. Mr. Stringer gave an explanation of the various boat slips and
parking requirements. One is the classic wet slip where a person leaves their boat at a
marina. The transient is a tourist who goes up and down the intercoastal with their boat
and stops at different towns along the way and spend a few days walking around
whatever is on the riverfront. Then there are slips for commercial or charter or six-pack
boats. Right now the marina office is held to a separate set of parking requirements. He
added that they are looking at a marina as a conglomerate of mixed uses. Marinas that
also have a restaurant, what percentage of customers are coming by water and how
2
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH 6, 2008
many parking spaces would you allow for dockage. As an example, if a restaurant needs
50 parking spaces and we think 10% of their business will be from water rather than
land, then they could set aside 5 slips without amenities for people to tie up and go to
the restaurant instead of 5 on the land. So you would have 45 spaces on land and 5 on
water.
Also discussed was parking requirements for employees of the marina, whether office.or
retail. Mr. Stringer explained that current regulations have one parking space for 300 sf
of marina office space and over 300 sf requires two spaces. He asked the Commission
at what square footage level do they want to increase the parking spaces. Ms. Grohall
suggested just requiring a flat two spaces for marina office facility.
Staff and commissioners discussed extensively the boat to parking space ratio. The
consensus was 1:3 for wet slips. They then went back to the issue of transient dockage.
Ms. Grohall said it would be easier to enforce if the transient ratio were the same as the
wet slip ration, 1:3. Ms. King added that this would also make it easier from a code
enforcement perspective as to a transient and permanent live-aboard, which is not
allowed. Ms. Grohall agreed that the city should encourage redevelopment along the
riverfront, especially the Florida fishing village theme and to do that they need to be very
friendly to fishermen and boaters. Mr. Stringer added that staff will look within the
general parking requirements, not for marinas but for waterside restaurant and hotels,
and come up with credits for that portion.
The outcome of the discussion was to suggest two spaces for employees per marina.
Staff will work to have a distinction between something purely servicing the marina
versus a retail operation/gift shop. Wet slips, rental facilities and transient all 1:3. Dry
slips at 1:4 and keep charter boats and' six-pack the same as currently stated in the
code. Mr. Stringer said they will prepare a draft ordinance and bring it back to the
commission. The definitions will be on the agenda in about a month.

DISCUSSION - CHANGES TO LDC SECTION 54-3-15.2, PARKING
REQUIREMENTS 8 DEFINITIONS FOR MARINA USES
Chmn. Paul stated this is just discussion and review to see what direction the
commission would like to go with regard to this section of the regulations. Mr. Stringer
explained that there had been a site that was approved and it had in it~transient boat
slips. However, the P&Z minutes showed they talked about using the boat slips in lieu of
land parking spaces. This was confusing as there are provisions in the code for
transient live-aboards. Some discrepancies are cone-to-one parking for every slip. Ms.
Grohall ran a calculation showing what the current code requirements would be for a
1,200 sq. ft. commercial marina with 50 wet slips, 6 transients, a party boat that holds a
max of 45 people, 5 six-pack boats and a kayak rental facility with 16 kayaks. Their
parking needs would be 76 spaces. Two big issues with that is the marina -she felt they
could downsize the parking requirements for the marina itself. The other area where the
restrictions could be lessened is what is called transient slips, which are for overnight
types of boats that come in use the facilities, restaurants, bar, etc. Changing them from
a 1 to 1 to a 1 to 3 would give some relief.
Ms. Grohall explained a new category she is suggesting, called "Temporary". In the past
the board has given some marinas a credit on their surface parking if they provide
spaces for boats to pull up and enjoy the restaurant or bar or other amenity. This would
codify that issue. She kept wet slips basically the same; as well as dry slips, charter
party boats, six-pack. The one she did suggest a change is the rental facilities for small
water craft like kayaks, citing one parking space per one vessel a tough standard, so she
lessened that to 1 per 3 as a starting point for discussion.
There was discussion about the impact of the change to any facility currently operating.
Ms. Grohall said there are two that would have a positive impact. She did feel, however,
that the six-pack party boat rentals shou-d be kept at two parking spaces for every six-
pack boat.
Ms. Grohall explained how the marina calculations would tie into an adjoining
restaurant's calculations. Mr. Stringer gave an explanation of the various boat slips and
parking requirements. One is the classic wet slip where a person leaves their boat at a
marina. The transient is a tourist who goes up and down the intercoastal with their boat
and stops at different towns along the way and spend a few days walking around
whatever is on the riverfront. Then there are slips for commercial or charter or six-pack
boats. Right now the marina office is held to a separate set of parking requirements. He
added that they are looking at a marina as a conglomerate of mixed uses. Marinas that
also have a restaurant, what percentage of customers are coming by water and how
2
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH 6, 2008
many parking spaces would you allow for dockage. As an example, if a restaurant needs
50 parking spaces and we think 10% of their business will be from water rather than
land, then they could set aside 5 slips without amenities for people to tie up and go to
the restaurant instead of 5 on the land. So you would have 45 spaces on land and 5 on
water.
Also discussed was parking requirements for employees of the marina, whether office or
retail. Mr. Stringer explained that current regulations have one parking space for 300 sf
of marina office space and over 300 sf requires two spaces. He asked the Commission
at what square footage level do they want to increase the parking spaces. Ms. Grohall
suggested just requiring a flat two spaces for marina office facility.
Staff and commissioners discussed extensively the boat to parking space ratio. The
consensus was 1:3 for wet slips. They then went back to the issue of transient dockage.
Ms. Grohall said it would be easier to enforce if the transient ratio were the same as the
wet slip ration, 1:3. Ms. King added that this would also make it easier from a code
enforcement perspective as to a transient and permanent live-aboard, which is not
allowed. Ms. Grohall agreed that the city should encourage redevelopment along the
riverfront, especially the Florida fishing village theme and to do that they need to be very
friendly to fishermen and boaters. Mr. Stringer added that staff will look within the
general parking requirements, not for marinas but for waterside restaurant and hotels,
and come up with credits for that portion.
The outcome of the discussion was to suggest two spaces for employees per marina.
Staff will work to have a distinction between something purely servicing the marina
versus a retail operation/gift shop. Wet slips, rental facilities and transient all 1:3. Dry
slips at 1:4 and keep charter boats and six-pack the same as currently stated in the
code. Mr. Stringer said they will prepare a draft ordinance and bring it back to the
commission. The definitions will be on the agenda in about a month.

MEMORAI\TDUM
DATE: April 7, 2008
TO: Al Minner, City Manager
FROM: Rebecca Grohall, Director
SUBJECT: Signage in Commercial Districts
I am presenting you with several ideas for signage for City Council input. These ideas have
the potential to provide relief to local businesses in the form of increased advertising options
for businesses located both within our Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) and the other
commercial corridors.
Sandwich board signs
These are currently prohibited by the Code. However, I am recommending they be
considered for use within the CRA area (east of the FEC tracks). Sandwich board signs are
self supporting A-frame free standing temporary signs with two visible sides.
Sandwich signs, which are on the street/pedestrian level, would also have a secondary
impact by encouraging and promoting "walkability" of our downtown and historic districts.
Sandwich signs can be extremely functional for local businesses, esp. with tight budgets for
media advertising -they can advertise a "daily special", promote a specific item or just
encourage folks to stop in.
These signs would be limited to 7 square feet per side (ex. 3 ` x 4 `) and placed in proximity to
the primary entrance to the business during business hours only. They must be placed in a
manner as to not impede pedestrian, bicycle or vehicular access. Each business would be
limited to one sandwich board sign. Materials should be wood or wood-like materials that
promote the "Florida fishing village" theme or an aesthetic style compatible. Please refer to
Illustrations A and B for samples.
Page 2
Grand Opening and Special Event signs
Currently our code prohibits banners and portable signs, except fora 30 day "Grand
opening" event (which is anticipated to be a one time event) and for short periods of time (i.e
up to 3 times a year, but not to exceed a cumulative fourteen days for each event). Currently
the code does not allow for pennants (flags).
I am recommending Grand Opening signs be allowed fora 60 day period (double the current
code) and that Special Event signage be allowed to include the use of pennants (flags) as
part of the event (subject to the same 60 day criteria). This would not be limited to the CRA
district, but in effect for ALL commercial districts.
"Sidewalk" Sale events
While this isn't strictly related to signage, currently there is no code provision for "Sidewalk"
sales. However, many "Main Street" revitalization programs utilize this as a tool for promoting
local businesses and consideration could be given to legalizing these type events. A
suggestion would be to develop two dates per year for coordinated sidewalk sales, perhaps
in conjunction with a community festival. This would not be limited to the CRA district, but in
effect for ALL commercial districts.

08.054 A. Land Development Code Business Sign Change Recommendations (GMD
Transmittal, Memo -Same Backup as Provided for April 23, 2008 Meeting)
The City Manager briefly presented staff recommendations to change code provisions to
allow sandwich board type signs.
Beth Mitchell, Sebastian River Area Chamber of Commerce, submitted a handout from
Smal{ Business Administration on the importance of signage (see attached), and thanked
Council and staff for being responsive to businesses.
Cindy Falco-DiCorrado, concurs with allowing this type of signage.
Damien Gilliams, 1623 US 1, commended staff for getting this done, however, a lot more
needs to be done, and recommended a summit, said we need more parking, said
homeowners are also hurting and suggested a big garage sale in our park once per month
until things turn around.
Mr. Paternoster said he is all for this and talked about permanent signs much like those in
the historic area of Melbourne. He asked the City Manager if signs have to be according to
the old fishing village theme.
The Growth Management Director recommended wood framed, chalk board style or white
board style, not plastic.
Mr. Neglia agreed, but was concerned about pennants and flags.
Mayor Coy thanked staff for getting this back and said she was in favor
