He said he had suggested they look at benchmarking information going back four or five years in regard to critical areas such as unemployment, number of jobs available, etc. He said Orchid Mayor Dunlop asked for an agenda item tox�the animal control issue and asked the other municipalities to join with his community to reach a consensus and send a joint letter to the County stating we feel it is the County's responsibility and shouldn't be passed onto municipalities.

Mayor Hill asked if the letter itself would be on the next agenda and Mr. Wright clarified that it would be for direction. 0 Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Five 9. PUBLIC HEARING pgs 92-98 A. Ordinance No. 0-12-06 — Florida Model Ordinance — Fertilizer Best Manaqement Practices (Citv Manaqer Transmittal, 0-12-06) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA, PERTAINING TO ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION; AMENDING THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, CHAPTER 50 "HEALTH AND SANITATION" BY PROVIDING FOR CREATION OF SECTION 50-5 "FLORIDA-FRIENDLY FERTILIZER USE"; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT AND SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (1St Reading 4/11/12, Legal Ad 4/25/12) The City Attorney read the title of Ordinance No. 0-12-06 and Mayor Hill opened the public hearing at 7:09 p.m. The City Manager said this is the same ordinance that was bought before Council with one correction to a scrivener's error to include the definition of "fertilizer" which was inadvertently left out during first reading. MOTION by Mayor Hill and SECOND by Mr. Wright to adopt Ordinance No. 0-12-06 as amended by the City Manager. The following members of the public supported strengthening the ordinance with additional regulations beyond what is provided in the model ordinance to further regulate use of phosphorous and use of nitrogen only after testing, prohibit fertilizing during rainy summer months, expressed concern for degradation of the Indian River Lagoon and its effect on marine life, the environment and the local economy, suggested looking at stronger ordinances from other communities, and conducting a workshop to bring in someone with scientific expertise. • Brian Carmen, Board of Directors of Marine Resources Council - suggested contacting John Paxton from Sarasota County) • Russell Herrmann, Indian River Neighborhood Association - read an IRNA position statement into the record (see attached) • Kristen Beck, Pelican Island Preservation Society, and outdoor recreation business owner (invited members to come out with her to see the diminishing seagrasses) • Tom Bauer, Roseland — former river guide • Tim Glover, Friends of the St. Sebastian River • George Geiger, Sebastian — cited his email to Council (see attached) • Susan Keiffer, Florida Master Naturalist — invited members to visit Environmental Learning Center and speak to Heather Stapleton • Darryl ?, Sebastian • Dr. Richard Baker, President, Pelican Island Audubon Society, submitted a page from the Florida best management practices handbook with three asterisks (see attached) and asked that they be included in the ordinance. • Jane Schnee, Sebastian • Jim Gallagher, Sebastian — said 36 agencies in Florida have adopted stronger ordinances • Judy Evans Gallagher, Sebastian Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Six The following members of the public supported adoption of the ordinance based on the Florida best management practices model ordinance and suggested other sources of pollution such as septic tanks, agriculture, growth in population and increased boaters may have also have an effect on the lagoon: • Todd Josko, Florida Turfgrass Association. • Pete Schneider, Executive Director, Turfgrass Association, in response to questions from Ms. Coy and Mr. Gillmor said they do not promote use of phosphorous at all or nitrogen unless soil studies support it and did not support use of slow release nitrogen because it takes too long to degrade and is applied at rates above Florida friendly guidelines. • Craig Wyatt, Moorings Golf Course, and Florida Master Naturalist • Craig Domingas, St. Lucie County, Scotts Lawn Service, State BMP Instructor • John Kern • Steve Marini, Tru Green, BMP certified • Barry Bellvedere Mayor Hill called recess at 8:10 p.m. and when the meeting was reconvened at 8:24 p.m., all members were present. Mayor Hill was concerned with the perception that there are two sides, that there is not a person on Council who wants to see the degradation of the river. Ms. Coy agreed, but said if you listen there are two differences of opinion and there is room to compromise that won't hurt or offend anyone. She cited the credentials and experience of the people who spoke of their concerns and said most in favor are from businesses. She noted the Turfgrass Association states they do not use phosphorous and she had the same asterisks marked as Dr. Baker, and said it appears we are all on the same page, cited the Martin County ordinance and the pending Brevard County ordinance, and asked to add those three items to the ordinance to help us get the box stores to stop selling those products and educate the public. Mr. Gillmor read that there is already language in the ordinance prohibiting fertilizing when heavy rain occurrences are anticipated. Mayor Hill said everything stated is already covered in the ordinance by reference to Best Management Practices and the Florida Administrative Code rules. He suggested when we educate the public we include the list provided on Channel 25 slides. Mr. Gillmor said he did not see the harm in putting language in that would make it clearer, noting phosphorus has been known to be a problem for many years. MOTION to amend the main motion by Mr. Gillmor to require phosphorus application only after soil testing and Ms. Coy seconded it requesting that he add "quick release". Mr. Wright said this clarification was not necessary and read the section of the ordinance and said we are picking at words to satisfy the audience, and if you look those things they are already referenced. Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Seven 8:52 pm Result of roll call on the amendment: Ayes: Coy, Gillmor Nays: McPartlan, Hill, Wright Amendment on the Main Motion Failed. Mr. Wright said he was concerned with degradation of water and urged we not pass this and forget about it. He said he would like to see follow-up by experts to know what is causing the pollution in the Indian River and go after the top polluters. He cited his experience in New Jersey where 35 years were spent replacing bad sewers and finally the waters have been cleaned up. He said if we just talk about fertilizer we might be missing other sources and was afraid the majority will be from agriculture which is typically excluded from regulation. Mr. McPartlan said we are the citizens' caretakers, and the first important step we can take is to pass this ordinance, educate our children, bring them to the ELC and recycle. He said he spent the day of service with his children picking up thousands of cigarette butts in the park and there are no smoking rules there. He said the problem is people and said we need to encourage young people like those who won a science project to work toward protecting the lagoon, and that education is on each of them to encourage people not to use companies who use phosphorous, and suggested people start a petition to submit to fertilizer companies. Ms. Coy said the FAC rule deals with requirements for fertilizer labels, doesn't tell you don't put it on there, so to say our ordinance covers these three issues is not clear. Mayor Hill read from the ordinance and said these items could be posted on a slide. Ms. Coy asked why not just put it in the ordinance, because if not, no one will understand. Result of the roll call vote: AYES: Wright, Gillmor, McPartlan, Hill NAYS: Coy Passed 4-1 10. UNFINISHED BUSINESS 12.055 A. Cavcorp Improvement Update (City Manager Transmittal. Lavouts, Cost Anal ses The City Manager introduced Frank Hickson, Infrastructure Engineers, Inc., who gave a Power Point presentation on the project and the highlighted comments he has received from members of Council (see attached). He sought direction from City Council to approve the conceptual plan as is or provide new direction, and then we can move into final design and have the public involved. 9:11 pm Mr. Gillmor commended the City Manager and Mr. Hickson for the process followed and allowing input before getting to the final design. He suggested allowing for flexibility to allow cars in the boat parking area shown on the Sebastian Boulevard side during art and craft shows and other events in Riverview Park. 7 Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Eight The City Manager responded that since these events occur in the winter months primarily when there is less boating, we could mark that area out for events, and boaters will probably lean more to the north and east side to be closer to the ramp. Ms. Coy asked what would prevent cars from parking in boat spots, and the response was that boat spots are reserved for boat trailer parking much the same as Main Street, and Mayor Hill said the simple solution is to mark those as car parking only during events. Ms. Coy said there needs to be a balance and she was not sure we need to provide boat trailer parking for everybody. Mayor Hill said when you mingle car with boat parking it is a disaster, and said pervious surFace that has to be vacuumed out is a disaster, because it crumbles. He suggested impervious surface and corral water to retention ponds. Ms. Coy asked if we considered a sod environment delineated with cement lines, and the City Manager said that was never considered, though turf block was considered and we would still need concrete for handicapped spaces. Mr. Hickson said turf blocks become tripping hazards. Ms. Coy said we have a lot that is perfect, and she never thought we were going to put this much pavement down. Mr. Wright commented on layout 11-1 stating with angled parking you would not have to be remove the sidewalk, asked if layout 11-1 is pervious or impervious and Mr. Hickson said with angled we are okay either way. In response to Mr. Wright, Mr. Hickson said all throughways will accommodate two-way traffic, that a T line on the conceptual is a utility easement. Mr. Wright said on the Sebastian Boulevard side, he was hoping that the boat trailer parking could have an access road running east and west to make them through spots and accessible by either side for car parking when needed. Discussion then turned to angled rather than perpendicular parking on the east and west sides of Indian River Drive to create more car parking, and Mr. Hickson said the swale on the west side is needed to treat runoff. Mr. Wright said we have a design in place to pipe the swale north of that area along Indian River Drive and suggested we could do that here. Mr. Hickson said there is no final design on the drainage and the City Manager said runoff in that area will be treated by a baffle box and they will have to look into whether that could be done here. In response to Mr. Wright, the City Manager said we had used a retention pond on the Main Street project not a baffle box. In response to Mr. McPartlan, Mr. Hickson said the asphalt is designed to last 20 years with proper maintenance and with pervious it depends on a maintenance plan. The City Manager said he will provide them with maintenance costs for both. 12.035 B. Authorize Proiect Budqet Increase from $75,000 to $100,000 for poq Park Restroom (Public Works Transmittal, Budaet Modification, Impact Fee Summarv) MOTION by Ms. Coy and SECOND by Mr. Wright to approve. The City Manager said the Parks and Recreation Committee didn't want to cut the restroom out after receiving significant public input, and we will need $25K for the project. Jim Sunnycalb, Sebastian, said he was the one to bring up the restroom and walking trail, the park has grown and is a big asset to Sebastian. 8 Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Nine Mr. Sunnycalb said there about 300 cars a week in response to Mr. Wright, who commented that could be the City's most regularly used park. Louise Kautenburg, Sebastian, concerned this is a cost that has grown from $25K and suggested that a park that is used for a longer duration of time such as the complex where children play ball all year long could use the restroom. Mr. Wright said the committee looked carefully, and did not think this precludes us from putting facilities in other parks, and adding to the budget, considering the use, made sense to him. Mr. McPartlan asked how long the restroom will last and are people going to take dogs into the restroom with them when they use it or will there be a hitching post. The City Manager said it will last quite a while and had no answer on the dogs. Result of the roll call vote: AYES: All NAYS: None Passed 5-0 MOTION by Mr. Wright and SECOND by Mayor Hill to continue the meeting until no later than 10:30 p.m. passed with a voice vote of 5-0. 11. PUBLIC INPUT Bruce Zingman, Sebastian, thanked everyone who participated in the the day of service, including Mayor Hill and Council Member McPartlan, Friends of St. Sebastian River, Natural Resources Board, Roseland residents, Boys and Girls Club, Womens' Club, KIRB, Walmart and Dunkin Donuts. He said volunteers are needed to sort donated food at the Stamp Out Hunger Drive at the Sebastian Post Office on May 12th. 12. NEW BUSINESS 12.044 A. Resolution No. R-12-12 - Bank Note Bond Closinq (Finance Director Transmittal, R-12-12, Analvsis) 10:00 am A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING A PROPOSAL OF TD BANK, N.A. AND APPROVING THE FORM OF A LOAN AGREEMENT WITH TD BANK, N.A.; AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A PROMISSORY NOTE PURSUANT TO SUCH LOAN AGREEMENT IN THE AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $2,296,000 TO REFINANCE PRIOR INDEBTEDNESS OF THE CITY AND TO FINANCE COSTS OF THE ACQUISTION, CONSTRUCTION AND EQUIPPING OF CERTAIN TRANSPORTATION RELATED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE CITY; AUTHORIZING THE REPAYMENT OF SUCH NOTE FROM PROCEEDS OF THE SIX CENTS LOCAL OPTION GAS TAX; DELEGATING CERTAIN AUTHORITY TO THE CITY MANAGER AND THE CITY CLERK; AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF OTHER DOCUMENTS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THIS RESOLUTION. The City Attorney read the title to Resolution R-12-12. The City Manager said by making the financial transaction, this City will be reducing the annual interest rate from approximately 4% to 1.99% and extending the debt term for one year. The City Manager said this action will provide approximately an additional $175K in new debt proceeds, which can be used for street paving this year and reduce the annual LOGT debt payment by approximately $21,000 per year. The City Manager also reported that the lower debt payment will help offset the loss in LOGT revenue that started in FY 12. G� Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Ten Finally, the City Manager relayed that he anticipated providing, at the next Council meeting, a staff recommendation on street surfacing improvements to be financed with the new debt proceeds. MOTION by Mr. Gillmor and SECOND by Ms. Coy to approve Resolution No. R-12-12. Result of the roll call vote: AYES: All NAYS: None Passed 5-0 12.074 B. Award Annual Sod Contract to Aq Scape Services Based on Bid Prices Submitted — Low Bidder and Local (Public Works Transmittal, Bid Tabulation) The City Manager said that the annual sod contract has expired and recommended approval of the new contract with Ag Scape Services. MOTION by Ms. Coy and SECOND by Gillmor to approve the contract. Result of the roll call vote: AYES: All NAYS: None Passed 5-0. 12.059 C. Resolution No. R-12-14 — Smart Meters (Council Transmittal, R-12-14) A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, IN SUPPORT OF THE RIGHT OF CITIZENS IN SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA TO OPT OUT OF FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT'S SMART METER PROGRAM; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. The City Attorney read the title to Resolution No. R-12-14. The City Manager said Mr. Gillmor requested this item to be on the agenda. Mr. Gillmor said he looked at the County's resolution, saw it was unanimously approved, noted it gave them no jurisdiction but liked the way it was worded so he wanted folks to have a chance to talk about it; that he did not specifically request a resolution, and would suggest instead we send a letter. Mr. Wright said he got a correspondence from Amy Brunjes, FPL, who suggested a letter be sent to the FPL president and request a response within 30 days, they are going to try to comply with people's requests, and he would rather not have resolution on something that we have no control over. Mr. Gillmor said he would support a motion to send a letter to the Public Service Commission asking them to support the County resolution. Mr. Wright said either FPL or PSC. The City Manager suggested sending it to FPL and copying the same letter to PSC. Ms. Coy said that makes sense since we have no authority. It was the consensus of Council to send the letter. Amy Brunjes, FPL, recommended sending the letter to the FPL President for a response, that the FL PSC has said they will formalize a process to take public input and provide full stakeholder participation and this may take it out of the hand of local bodies. 10 Regular City Council Meeting May 9, 2012 Page Eleven The following individuals expressed strong concerns about smart meters, the need to opt out and request for a resolution: • Phyllis Frye, Vero Beach — said this violates State and Federal laws and gives government control over us with ability to ration our use • Stephanie Austin — said she wants full public hearings, other states are offering lifetime opt-out and distributed a paper from Wave-Guide.org (see attached) and said this is a change of America as we know it and is unconstitutional • Mary Ingui — urged sending a powerful letter calling for hearings, said this is another type of pollution, asked if someone would knowingly put something in their home that would harm them and coupled with wi-fi and cell phone this is a future health hazard and they are a surveillance device, and cited the website www.thepowerfilm.com • Robert Ciccio, said he was able to opt out by calling the customer service hotline, said FPL was sneaky in the way they installed the meters, and read from a letter from Congressman Posey (see attached). • Susan Keiffer, Florida Master Naturalist and herbologist, said smart meters have a thousand times more radiation than cell phones, affect many bodily functions, in California cost three times as much and give power to a global power matrix which can shut power off with one flick of a switch. Amy Brunjes, FPL, responded that FPL was ordered in 2009 by PSC to install smart meters and said Congressman Posey sent a retraction to the letter cited by a citizen and she would provide it to Council (see attached). She left a large binder of studies conducted for each member of Council (copy available in Clerks office). At 10:30 pm, Mayor Hill adjourned the Regular Meeting and the remaining items were not addressed. 13. CITY ATTORNEY MATTERS 14. CITY MANAGER MATTERS 15. CITY CLERK MATTERS 16. CITY COUNCIL MATTERS A.

Unfortunately I was disappointed by the depth of, or even the lack of due diligence undertaken by cauncil on such a critical issue prior to taking a public position on the proposed Florida Friendly Fertilizer Ordinance. 1 believe when questioned by council Mr. Min#or had to respond, but to his credit applied a strong caveat to his comments which should have tipped the council off that more, and certainly more current information regarding the health and vitality of the lagoon was necessary. Scientific information from the Marine Resources Couneil was presented and more was a�ailable. As well, I believe it would have been in the best interests of the council to at least receive more tirnely testimony from state persannel working directiy on the sea grass die off issue, as well as the Department of Environmental Protection. Mr. Jeff Geal is a sea grass scientist with the Florida Wildlife Research Institute, Habitat Branch and works out of Harbor Branch, and is the source of my comments about the total die off from South Mosquit� Lagoon to Vero Beach, when I questioned him about the die off around Sebastian. He used the word "catastrophic", he said the recovery potential is "unknown", and the die off event is being attributed to "a rare zoo plankton bloom facilitated by high salinity levels attributable to the 2 year drought". Mr. Geal's phone number is 772 - 242 -2561. The issue becomes recovery; algae bfooms resultant from Phosphate and Nitrogen rich storm water run- off will reduce the sun light reaching the re-emerging sea grass hindering re- growth and any recovery. In an attempt to provide an opportunity for each of you to witness for yourself what has happened 1 will rent the Environmental Le,arning Center Pontoon Boat and take up to 16 people to see first- hand the sea grass die off, with comparisons to aerial photos. If the Sunshine law precludes this, i will be pleased to take each of you individually wi#h whomever else you choose to bring, up to 4 people, in my personal boat. This problem is reaf folks! I strongly urge each of you to do more in-depth research and work necessary to make, or at least give the impression, of an informed decision. The Lagoon is the GoosE, our locai economy the golden egg. You all are tempting fate giving lip service to the health of the Goose.

Sally From: Leslie Herrmann [mailto:capepondil@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2012 12:25 PM To: Sally Maio Subject: A favor from Buzz Herrmann Hi Sa11y...I am going to give the attached speech at the May 9th City Council meeting and wanted all the Council people to have a copy. Unfortunately I do not have all their e-mail addresses. Is it possible for you to see this on to each of the City Council people? Thanks so much. Buzz Herrmann For many reasons, I am very concerned about the degradation of the Indian River Lagoon. The Coastal Conservation Association states "The Indian River Lagoon, one of the most diverse estuaries in North America to 4500 differenct species of plant and animal life, is probably the biggest reason the Treasure Coast is in a class all it's own. This complex natural ecosystem is the backdrop for upscale developments and the lifeline for hundreds of businesses. Commercial and recreational fishing and boating in the Indian River Lagoon contribute millions of dollars each year to our local economies. It's estimated that some $90 million dollars was spent last year alone on recreational fishing in the lagoon with more than 100,000 boats registered in the region and 1.5 million boat trips to and from the lagoon yearly. Additionally, there are nearly 100 resorts, fish camps, and bait and tackle shops that benefit from recreational fishing in the lagoon. Sales tax from restaurants along 5/10/2012 Page 2 of 3 the lagoon is two to four times more than that in adjacent counties on a per resident basis. It is blatantly obvious that our local resources are indeed an integral part of both the character and economic development of the Treasure Coast! Protecting our natural resources is paramount to maintaining the quality of life along the Treasure Coast." The Indian River Neighborhood Association is dedicated to preserving our quality of life, protecting our natural resources and ensuring a sustainable economy for future generations. To accomplish these goals, the Indian River Neighborhood Association has a Position Statement on Fertilizer Ordinances. I quote: "We believe that a great deal of economic activity stems from the Indian River lagoon and that each of us has an obligation to do what needs to be done to eliminate the pollution that has now become a threat. We believe that each governmental unit within the county should adopt a fertilizer ordinance that should, at a minimum, include th following: 1. Allow the use of phosphorus in lawn fertizers ONLY after a soil test confirms its requirements. 2. A requirement for fertilizer to contain at least 50% slow release nitrogen. 3. A requirement for those who spread fertilizer to receive standardized education and receive a License indicating that they have received the necessary training. 4. That each governmental unit adopts a series of best practices, based on DEP Guidelines, and in accordance with Florida statutes with regard to the use of fertilizers containing phosphorus and nitrogen. 5. That the adopted ordinance not provide exceptions for 5/10/2012 Page 3 of 3 pesticide/fertilizer mixes such as "weed and feed" products. 6. That the adopted ordinace provide penalties for violations. We believe that this type of ordinance should be adopted as soon as possible to minimize any further damage to the lagoon. Our lagoon is in trouble. We can and must control the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus that enters the lagoon. We cannot gamble with our children's future when the river becomes more polluted. Due to the pollution of the river, jobs may be lost and this huge financial impact will be felt by all Sebastian residents. The Lagoon is responsible for 1/7 of our region's economy. PLEASE adopt a strong fertilizer ordinance that truly will protect our Lagoon, protect our financial future and protect the value of our homes. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
