The Pledge of Allegiance was recited. 3. ROLL CALL: Present: Tom Haynes Lisanne Robinson Warren Dill Donna Keys Excused: Carolyn Anderson Staff present: Joe Griffin, Community Development Director Jan King, Senior Planner Dorri Bosworth, Planner/Secretary 4. APPOINT CHAIRPERSON & VICE -CHAIRPERSON Mr. Dill nominated Donna Keys for chairperson. All were in favor. Donna Keys nominated Lisanne Robinson for vice -chairperson. All were in favor. 5. OLD BUSINESS — Minutes of Regular Meeting of 1/9/2012 Mr. Dill verified that the money amounts shown in the minutes for Suzi's Tiki were correct with regards to the funds indicated in the summary chart. MOTION by Dill/Lisanne to accept the minutes of the January 9, 2012 meeting as submitted. Motion was approved unanimously by voice vote. 6. NEW BUSINESS A. Review of Budget and Funds Available Ms. Bosworth had previously explained that the Tiki Bar & Grill (Suzi's) had requested a six month extension, until July 2013, for their grant funds awarded for landscaping plans. These monies were set aside and not included in the available funds figure. Mr. Griffin stated that a portion of the Southern Sisters Phase 11 monies was not used and therefore now available for this year's applications. Total funds available for the 2013 applicants is $31,139. B. New Applications The Committee decided to review all the applications and then discuss allocation of the funds. Ms. Robinson stated she felt the Committee had become more of a signage group, which was disappointing, instead of reviewing projects that were geared towards the development of a Fishing Village. She was unhappy with the line-up of lit billboards along US Highway #1 and felt the signs should be establishing unity within the CRA, and that grant monies should be used on older properties or those no longer in compliance with the overlay district regulations. She preferred hand -carved, non -lighted signage that appeared small village - like. Ms. Keys gave the members a hand-out for dimensional signs (attached). Mr. Dill agreed, and stated he was looking more at the fagade and landscaping projects this year, though not disregarding signage. Ms. Robinson discussed asking City Council/CRA to allow the FSL Grant Committee to only approve a more creative type of sign if grant monies were being used. Ms. Keys was in agreement, and stated that staff has to approve signs that meet code but, as an advisory board they can approve aesthetics. She stated she would also like to get away from the internally lit, monument based signs and move towards nice sand -blasted, overhead or ground lit signs that feel like a village. Mr. Griffin reminded the Committee to keep costs in mind, and that he felt that there had been improvement in the Riverfront with the previously approved signs. Mr. Dill agreed that if grant monies were being used for the sign, an aesthetically nicer sign should be approved. River Park Plaza — 480 to 484 US Highway #1 The applicant, Mr. Jay Dick, was not present. Staff explained that the development of the 2004 site plan had been halted years ago, and the current owners were now in the process of completing the project. They had requested grant monies for landscaping and replacement of the non -conforming pole sign. Mr. Keys stated she would consider the replacement of the pole sign but felt the landscaping was a requirement of the site plan approval and didn't meet the grant criteria. Mr. Dill agreed. There was a discussion of the two proposed sign designs, which the Committee felt did not meet the Fishing Village look. Ms. Robinson understood the need for a multi -tenant sign but liked the carved, multi -tenant sign installed for Washington Plaza (Vic's Pizza) much better. Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply — 712 Cleveland Street The applicant, Ms. Edith Humphrey, was not present. Staff verified the request was for fagade improvements to a very old building, and new signage. Mr. Dill noted landscaping was lacking from the site as well. Ms. Robinson was happy to discover this building was used as the city's Post Office in the 1950's, and was excited for it to have a facelift. She felt this was the intent of the grant program. The committee had questions to ask the applicant 2 about the proposed facade changes. There was a discussion regarding tabling the application. Buried Treasures —1554 US Highway #1 Ms. Renee Powell explained that she had purchased the property across the street from her existing business location, which she was currently developing. She was requesting grant funds for signage and landscaping. She stated it was hard to get quotes from sign companies and suggested the Committee have a list available of companies that design and construct the signs they were interested in. She stated her proposed building was designed to look like an old cracker house, and the site plan should be completed within a month. Ms. Keys stated she felt the same regarding the landscaping request as with the River Park Plaza application, in that it will be a part of the approval for the site plan, but she like the direction of the proposed sign. Ms. Robinson liked the logo and wanted to possibly add funds for landscaping around the sign. The Committee discussed recommending an award amount tonight, but wanted to work with the applicant in tweaking the sign design. Sebastian Vacation Rentals — 1301 US Highway #1 Mr. John Conway stated he currently had a small business located in town since 2008, but now wanted to start his new business venture at a location that needed much renovation. He had worked with city staff regarding the zoning change of use, site plan, and approval of colors, and had been working with a structural engineer regarding building permit requirements. He was requesting grant funds for facade, signage, and landscaping, and although the signage costs were a high part of his application, it was not what he wanted to spend the most money on. He would rather use grant monies for facade and landscaping, if awarded. The Committee discussed with staff how the grant program allowed monies to be divided between the three items. Mr. Conway explained his facade improvements on the overhead projector, and went over the condition of the building. Mr. Dill stated he thought this application had the potential to be the best project the grant program had ever funded as it was removing blight that was in the center of the city, and should be considered for maximum award. He verified that Mr. Conway had a long-term lease with the owner. Ms. Robinson and Mr. Haynes also agreed with awarding the maximum amount however the applicant wanted to break it down. Ms. Keys asked if the applicant would consider down -sizing the 10'X 10' sign to being more in proportion with the building. Mr. Conway stated he would consider not using an internally lit sign, and would like to incorporate the proposed shell into the design. Ar -Pat's Dry Cleaners — 720 Harrison Street Mr. Sam Desai explained that he had other various businesses between West Palm Beach and Daytona, but loved Sebastian, and actually bought the property and building at this location. In the past few years, he has been continuing site improvements. He felt a monument sign would be appealing to his freestanding building, which the site has never had. He also stated he would be adding landscaping around the sign and to the front area. 3 Ms. Keys asked if an irrigation system existed on site. Mr. Desai stated it did on the east and north side of the building. She discussed with Mr. Desai if any existing signage would be removed if a monument sign was installed. He stated if the monument sign was big enough he would consider removing the signage on the canopy. The Committee discussed the amount of existing signage, and if additional signage was necessary. Ms. Robinson stated she would not like to see a lit sign next to the city's park, and would consider a grant if the sign was re -designed, blending more in with the district. Mr. Dill agreed, and would also like to see some of the existing signage removed, and possibly help with costs to re -paint the canopy. The Committee and staff discussed the LDC requirement of having signage reflect the design of the building. The Committee then discussed which existing signage they would like to have Mr. Desai remove, and consideration of approving funds for a non -internally lit sign. The Committee then had a general discussion on which applications should be awarded grant monies and how much. It was agreed by all that Sebastian Vacation Rentals should receive maximum amount based on its blighted condition, and the following applications in following priority: 2) Alpha Hardware, 3) Buried Treasures, 4) Ar -Pat's, and 5) River Park Plaza. Staff and the Committee discussed language in the grant program with regards to how many times the applicants could apply, which was until the maximum amount was awarded to them, and then they were not eligible for another three years. The city attorney would be asked for his opinion of this verbiage. There was also a discussion with staff regarding the LDC and internally lit signs. Ms. King stated the code listed signs that were "encouraged", such as the wood -carved signs the Committee was interested in, but it was hard to enforce because of the way it was worded. Staff suggested asking the CRA to allow the condition that if you receive grant monies for a sign, it would have to be of a certain design that the Committee was looking for. After discussion, the Committee decided to recommend grant awards to the CRA so that a meeting could be scheduled for final decisions in order not to further delay projects that wished to begin, but that they would like to meet with the applicants at a future meeting date to work on and approve final sign designs. Ar -Pat's Dry Cleaners: Motion by Robinson/ to award $4,320 [for a sign] contingent upon further design review. Motion died for lack of a second. It was discussed that when the sign design was brought back for further review, the Committee could then decide if or which existing sign might be required to be removed. 4 Motion by Dill/Robinson to recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Ar -Pat's $4,320 subject to further review of the signage by this Committee. A voice vote was taken. All were in favor. Buried Treasures: Motion by Dill/Robinson to recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Buried Treasures $4,320 subject to further review of the signage by this Committee. A voice vote was taken. All were in favor. Sebastian Vacation Rentals: Motion by Dill/ that we recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Sebastian Vacation Rentals $15,000 subject to further review of the signage by this Committee. Motion died for lack of a second. There was discussion with the applicant if grant money was wanted for the proposed sign, and a review of the grant program verbiage regarding the amounts allowed for each element ensued. Mr. Conway stated if money was awarded for his proposed signage, he was agreeable to return with a new design, especially if it may be less expensive. Motion by Dill/Keys to recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Sebastian Vacation Rentals $15,000 subject to further review of the signage, landscaping, and facade improvements by this Committee. A voice vote was taken. All members were in favor. Alpha Hardware: Motion by Dill/Robinson to recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Alpha Hardware and Marine Supply $7,499 subject to further review of the signage, landscaping and facade improvements by this Committee. A voice vote was taken. All members were in favor. It was discussed by staff and the Committee that Ms. Humphrey could apply for an additional $7,501 through the next grant cycle. River Park Plaza: Motion by Dill/Haynes to recommend to City Council [CRA] the denial of a grant to River Park Plaza, LLC. A voice vote was taken. All members were in favor. The Committee stated the denial was based on that they felt the landscaping was a part of their approval for the site plan, and that grant monies would be spent better on other properties that met the intent of the program. 9 Ms. Keys and Ms. Robinson offered to meet with the applicants to help design and discuss revisions to their sign details. The next FSL Grant Committee meeting to review final designs was tentatively scheduled for the first week of March. 7. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 6:55 PM.

The CRA minutes portion of the February 13, 2013 CRA meeting are presented again for approval by the Community Redevelopment Agency. 8. CONVENE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING (CRA Packet Under Separate Cover) A. Mayor McPartlan called the Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting to order at 7:26 p.m. B. Roll Call CRA Members Present: Mayor Bob McPartlan Vice -Mayor Don Wright Council Member Jerome Adams Council Member Andrea Coy Council Member Jim Hill C. Approve January 9, 2013 CRA Minutes MOTION by Mr. Wright and SECOND by Mr. Adams to approve the January 9, 2013 minutes passed with a voice vote of 5-0. D. Facade Siqn and Landscape Grant Awards The Community Development Director said the Committee met January 30, there were five applications considered and two Committee members were currently present to address the Board. Mr. Wright asked the Board to consider the general comments the Committee members were about to give along with their individual comments on each application. Ms. Keys, Chair of Committee, displayed improved sign pictures of previous grant recipients and noted as the program continues, the Committee has been seeing trends in that requests coming in are for monument signs with plastic fronts, internal lighting which does not encourage the fishing village theme noting they do not have authority to enforce the fishing village look. She displayed a few conforming sign pictures. She said another trend is the business owners are changing the signs after they are paid for and installed. She suggested that changes be approved noting the Committee can meet quickly if needed. She also said the Committee is concerned with the lack of maintenance to approved projects. COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING Wednesday, February 13, 2013 Page Two Warren Dill, Member of the Committee, said the applications are often approved with conditions and the property owners have a responsibility to comply with them. He suggested having a written contract with each applicant requiring them to pay the money back if the conditions aren't met; future changes would have to be reviewed by the 7:39 pm Committee; or have Code Enforcement enforce the rules through an ordinance. He said this will ensure better compliance in the future. The Community Development Director noted the program was not drawn up by ordinance and staff has noticed the non-cdmpliant recipients and used Code Enforcement in the past. He noted some of the altered signs displayed by Ms. Keys have been approved by the Community Development Department. Ms. Keys interjected that staff only has the right make sure the sign meets code, the Committee looks at the design of the sign. The Community Development Director said the program instructions are not the best and they should probably work with the Committee, public, and staff to improve the instructions. He pointed out that the program has had some great success stories. Ms. Keys requested the authorization to have a workshop with staff to improve language to give them the ability to control some of this. Ms. Coy said she liked the suggestion to come up with more signs like Southern Sisters'. Mr. Hill said the program has really enhanced the CRA district, they are talking about a few isolated incidents, and it already falls upon the City to make sure all properties are compliant and maintained, not just those in the CRA district. Ms. Keys clarified that a sign change can be approved by staff as long as it meets code but the Committee is needed to make sure it complies with the grant. The City Manager said the City does need to use Code Enforcement on some of the nonconforming businesses. He suggested changing the program by setting specific stylistic modifications that provides more of the fishing type feel; they could consider liening the property which would make a contract part of the program; and one of the requirements could allow a new sign to be erected for a business that didn't have one. Mr. Wright said any property owner can request a sign, but when the City pays for it and the Committee has ideas that exceed the code, they should go along and maintain their ideas as well. Mayor McPartlan pointed out there are always a few bad apples in the bunch and suggested requiring maintenance of the sign for three to five years as opposed to eternity. Mr. Adams asked if the money is paid before or after the work is completed and why the business is reimbursed if they aren't compliant. Ms. Keys explained the City reimburses the applicant after the work is done and the changes normally occur after payment. The City Manager noted in pictures displayed by Ms. Keys, the City did an inspection and it was good that day, the landscaping was fresh. In the Squidly Books case, the COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING Wednesday, February 13, 2013 Page Three copy changed and the City didn't have ability to stop that because the sign didn't change but the displayed Man Cave sign was non-compliant. Mr. Adams said he agreed if there is a particular style they want to maintain. Ms. Keys displayed pictures of businesses along U.S. 1 that are supposed to have landscaped buffers. It was the consensus of Council to allow staff to conduct a workshop with the Committee. Damien Gilliams, 1623 US Hwy 1, said the agendized applicants should be tabled until the City Attorney can review program wording to hold the businesses' feet to fire. He did not want to see more money spent when there are problems with the existing signs. He also said they should be getting the highest and best use by matching the program with other funding such as the SBA. He said Council should take Ms. Key and Mr. Dill's advice. Mr. Wright asked the Board to discuss each application individually, the majority of the program has been successful, and to stop completely would be a shame. Mr. Hill agreed. Mr. Adams asked if the Committee works on the rules, can they be retroactively applied to tonight's applicants. Mr. Wright suggested having the City issue a memorandum of understanding with each applicant. The City Manager said of the 15-20 completed signs, three are delinquent, and the City should have been more active. He said if they want to ensure the code is followed, the sign is maintained, the lien is the way to protect the City's investment, but they have to consider how friendly they want to conduct business. He advised the program is very successful and they should move forward. The Applicants 8:13 pm Mr. Wright noted what is depicted for Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply in the packet is not how the sign will end up looking. Ms. Keys explained every applicant asked a sign company for a sign and they were given standard design that they didn't care for so the Committee thought they should receive approval and meet again with them to come up with a final design. She continued to explain that the Committee felt Buried Treasures and Ar -Pats were non -conforming signs that should be tabled but the Committee was happy with Alpha Hardware and Sebastian Vacation Rentals. MOTION by Mr. Wright and SECOND by Mr. Hill approve the Alpha Hardware and Sebastian Vacation Rentals applications as expressed by Committee with a final review and hold the other applications until the Committee has further discussion with the business owners. Mr. Adams noted Riverview Park Plaza did not have a recommended award for landscaping but asked about the sign. Ms. Keys said the program ran out of money, the COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING Wednesday, February 13, 2013 Page Three applicant was not at the meeting; his project site is being planned which requires landscaping so the Committee would like to see what is installed first before making any decisions. Ms. Keys offered to contact the owner. Result of the roll call vote: AYES: All NAYS: None Passed 5-0. E.

The premise of the program is to help business, in the CRA District, to 'improve the aesthetics of their properties and buildings. Since the creation of the annual budget, staff and the Chamber of Commerce have completed a draft program, which is now ready for your approval. Growth Management Director Rebecca Grohall has significant experience in this endeavor and has created/implemented this type of program in her previous communities. Rebecca had outstanding insight and was able to greatly assist in putting together the enclosed program pamphlet, In short, the program will match up to $15,400 for specific improvements. Eligible project applicants are businesses located in the CRA district that are (1) licensed through the City's Occupational Licensing Division; (2) performing permitted/conforming uses; (3) current with all property taxes; and, (4) not possessing outstanding code enforcement issues. Matching funds to applicants are slated for a 2 to 1 ratio. In other words, if a business owner contributes $1,000 they can receive $500 from the CRA. However, caps of $5,000 for landscaping/signage grants and $15,000 for Iandscapingfsignageffacades grants are established. To award such grants, staff will establish a review committee which will ultimateiy make recommendation to the CRA. Then in their CRA capacity, the City Council will review, approve, and award all grants. If approved by Council, the program will be ready to start immediately and the first submittal deadline can be scheduled for June 15t. It is anticipated that 2-3 projects could be approved this year. RECOMMENDED ACTION Approve Sebastian CRA Eagade, Sign and Landscaping Grant proposal. Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) April 12, 2006 Page Four ON a MOTION by Ms. Coy, staff was directed to conte back with additional alternatives to the uncolored Main Street option using the current ramp. The City Manager requested that Ms. Coy put a dollar figure on her motion, noting he had gotten additional conceptual plants out of Neel -Schaeffer and could not expect them to do further conceptual designs at no cost. Ms. Cray said if Neel -Schaeffer could give Council three more options she would authorize up to what they spent so far - $4,550, noting it should be kept under $5,000. The MOTION DIED for lack of a second. Mr. Paternoster asked that renderings be provided to Council prior to the scheduled meeting. Mayor McCollum said he would support the cast to $2,500. The City Manager said he had authority up to $15,000 but would not spend that amount. A new MOTION was made by Ms. Coy and SECONDED by Mr. Neglia to have staff to get with planners to redo renderings of Main Street boat ramp improvements in color with narrative attached; delivered to Council ahead of the meeting. The motion carried on a roll call vote of 5-0. Mr. Burkeen clarified for the record, that the City Manager has the authority to spend up to $15,000 but would make an effort to keep it to $2,500 and the City Manager said that is what he hoped for. Mayor McCollum asked Council if they agreed that parking should be addressed as a last concern. Council concurred with the Mayor. The City Manager said that put in question what improvements Council would like to see on the south side. He stated there has been a lot of time and money spent on ideas for the south side and staff felt the parking was needed. He said there has been money appropriated for a portable band shell and he was directed to begirt the RFP process. The Mayor requested the (John Dean) south side renderings be brought back to Council next week for another review. B. Facade. Sian & Landscape Grant Application (Growth Manaaement Transmittal Grant Information and Application) The City Manager reiterated his report to Council in the agenda packet, and said the review committee would be him, the Growth Management Director, and the Chamber of Commerce Director. The CIA would then review the applications. Mr. Neglia requested that Mfr. Paternoster be included on the selection committee because he is the Chamber's liaison. Damien Gilliams stated high school kids could have designed the Main Street boat ramp in a contest. The Mayor asked Mr. Gilliams to speak on the landscaping program. 111 Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) April 12, 2008 Page Five Mr. Neglia asked if the timeframe for a certificate of occupancy could be shortened to six months and the City Manager explained how they arrived at the one year timeframe to accommodate the bigger projects. On a MOTION by Mr. Burkeen and a SECOND by Ms. Coy staff was directed to proceed with the program. 6.

City of Sebast Growth Management Department 1225 MAIN STREET ❑ SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA 32958 TELEPHONE (772) 589-5518 0 FAX (772) 388-8248 DATE; June 20, 2007 TO: At Minner, City Manager FROM: Rebecca Grohall, Growth Management Director SUBJECT: Fagade, Sign and Landscape Grant , Staff Recommendations Last year, the City established a Fagade, Sign and landscaping grant program to assist property owners for improvements within the CRA boundary. The program was fronded through the GRA budget to provide $30,000 to property owners as a matching grant. Funds have been budgeted for both 1=Y 2006146 and 2006107. To be eligible, property owners within the CIA area must be currently paid onproperty takes, and must have the correct and current occupational licensing. Up to $5,000 is available for signage and landscaping improvements, and up to $15,000 for improvements to the facade, signage and landscaping. The funds must meet other criteria including renovating the fagade to create the "Old Florida Fishing Village" theme, fagade improvements that maintain the historic character of the property and projects that remedy a non -conforming sign. Additionally, funds may be awarded for landscaping projects that go above and beyond the requirements of the landscape code. At the ,lane 28th, 2006, the CRA awarded the following grants, I've included the current status of each 1) Award $15,000 to Bettina Boudrot for fagade improvements to the property located at 1302 Indian River Drive, This is a fagade renovation that will preserve the historic character of the "River douse" while making much needed improvements. Total cast of the proposed improvements is $66,000. Ms. Boudreat's funds were never expended since the City purchased her property for the Main Street boat ramp improvement project. 2) Award $5,000 to Sebastian Oaks Plaza for a new monument style sign and corresponding fagade signage for each unit located at 1317-1331 North Central Ave. The sign will replace a f non -conforming sign. Total cost of the proposed improvements is $20,400. Sebastian Oaks Plaza is currently considering doing the fagade signage only and not doing the monument style sign, 3) Award $5,000 to The Davis Inn for a new monument style sign and landscaping improvements located at 607 Davis Street, The sign will replace a non -conforming sign. Total cost of the proposed improvements is $17,240. The Davis Inn has declined the grant due to lack of insurance availability for the improvements (see attached letter). 4) Award $5,000 to Buena Vista Eyeland for a new monument style sign and facade signage located at 1619 US Highway 1. The sign will replace a non -conforming sign. Total costs of the new signage is $12,100. Buena Vista Eyeland received site plan approval for a new building, however, construction has not yet started. Having completed the first year, Staff recommends the Council approve the following changes to the program: * Increase the amount available for signage and landscaping projects from $5,000 for to $7,500 when a new sign is fabricated, however, if the applicant is retrofitting the existing sign, then the $5,000 max award would be applicable. * Decrease the match requirements from 2:1 to 1:1 match. This would mean that to receive $5,000 under the current match requirements, the applicant would have to provide $10,000, under the new match the applicant would provide $5,000. Staff has seen an increase in the cost of materials for new signage, and in most cases to meet the wind load required by the Building Code engineering work is involved that increase the price. Staff is also recommending a change to the match requirement to make the grant more financially feasible to grant applicants. Staff is also recommending you approve these changes retroactive to the 2005106 grants as well as the current round. The CRA currently has enough funds to provide the grants at the higher match. The higher match rate increases the amount of the five projects from a total of $17,913 to $26,990. There is currently $60,000 available for the two program years. Totals $63,967 $17,913 $54,890 $26,990 0 G FAPAD,E SIGNAGE AND LANDSCAPING GRANT • Replacement of windows and doors; Exterior painting or siding as part of an overall facade renovation program.

FACADE & LANDSCAPE GRANT (GII Q Memo, Revised Application, Stoutenbug Letter, Applications) The Growth Management Director briefly reviewed the proposed grantees and changes to the program to increase participation as set out in her memo to City Council dated June 20, 2007. Jackie Patrone, Professional Animal World, thanked Council for their time, said their business also conducts animal rescue, and said her goal is to receive support for proposed improvements. Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting June 27'30O8 Page Two Mayor Coy asked ifanyone would like b»speak. LisanneMonier, downtown Sebastian, asked if there kssome way the City can landscape the strip of concrete on U9 1 to designate the CRA District with additional funding. The Growth Management Director said it could be looked at with the greater budget process. Ms. Simchichamid she had been speaking with Phil Matoon, Indian River County Metropolitan Planning OrQan|za1ion, who said the City may be eligible for greenways funding for aD historical walking trail which could pay for pavers. landscaping, etc. K8a. Monier said each business may participate |fthey were mvvmre of the plan. Nqc NeQ(ka asked if anyone has talked to FDOTnagardinQ what they allow. The City Manager said they would dictate landscaping. Mr. Paternoster cited circle page 7^and asked where the fishing village theme is. He said he would think @ sign would be the responsibility of the business. Ms. Gn)haU said with better signage, the fishing village theme can bGmet with color and finishes. The City Manager said the purpose of the smaller, detailed monument sign is to take your attention from tall signage which is obtrusive, Mr. Paternoster said the City should take the money toincrease signs and put it toward facades and did not think the Animal World's fencing should be considered. Ms. Sinoohiok said she also had concern for fencing, She said she had received e-nnoUs inwhich people expressed concern for spending this money inthese times ofconcern for increased taxes. She asked the City Manager toexplain tax increment funding which must be used in the redevelopment district under Florida law. Mr. Wolff agreed with Nis. Monier's concept of doing something for the greater good of the district. He said he would like to hear ideas from the business district and then Council could rate them. Hesaid when Council goes outside the boundaries ofthe grant, Council needs to be clear what the criteria is and that there is a level playing field, and tread carefully infunding the improvements tosomeone's business. Heagreed with Animal World's application, but was not sure government should bepromoting irrigation with landscaping funding. He said he was in favor oythe other recommended grants. Mayor Coy said the community put together charrettes for a fishing village plan. She said she was infavor ofall ofstaff's recommendations. Mr. Neg|(m said he would like the business community oorna before Council and let us know what kind 0fhelp they need. He asked iYthe County can help uamore |nthe CRA 2 Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting June 27, 2008 Page Three District. He said Buena Vista Eye Center has not done anything in a year and should not be retroactive with the one-to-one match and Wendy's colors do not fit in the district. The City Manager pointed out only signage applications have come in. The Growth Management Director said a previous Council designed and adopted the grant program. Mr. Paternoster said he was supposed to be on the Fagade and Landscape Board and was not notified of their meetings. He expressed concern for the precedent that would be set if Animal World's fencing was approved. Ms. Simchick said she would like to see the one-for-one in the following year and everyone stay in their application year, and she too had concern for approval of the fencing. Ms. Simchick said Council might want to think of an architectural board to set standards for example McDonald signs without the arches. Mr. Wolff said he would agreed with clearing, landscaping and approving a percentage of the fence for Animal World. Mayor Coy requested clarification as to whether under the current system says it must be for all landscaping, facade and signage. The Growth Management said while the applications are not for facade, the properties are very visible in the City. Ms. Grohall said a facade is considered to be part of the structure but the Animal World fence could be considered an extension of the facade. Mr. Paternoster reiterated that Ms. Grohall said the fence would be the extension of the fagade and the City Attorney clarified it comes within the broad listing of eligible improvements (exterior architectural amenities examples improvements to balconies, arcades). The Growth Manager Director explained that the Wendy's franchise owner is a small business owner and asked Council if they wanted to meet him. Mike Allen, Wendy's franchisee, said in conforming to the district he will lose the reader board and needed the financial help with the sign. On a MOTION by Ms. Simchick it was moved to award the applicants minus Professional Pet World as stated in the recommendation with a SECOND by Mr. Paternoster. Discussion followed on a required time limit for the applicants. Mayor Coy directed everyone to look at page nine for the three recommended actions. Ms. Simchick then rescinded her motion. 3 Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting June 27, 2008 Page Four MOTION by Mr. Wolff and SECOND by Ms. Simchick, to decrease the match requirements from two -to -one to one-to-one, and increase the amount available for signage and landscaping projects from $5,000 to $7,500.

The program was funded through the CRA budget to provide funding to property owners as a matching grant. Funds have been budgeted for both FY 2005/06, 2006/07, and 2007/08 for a total of $90,000 available for the program. To date there has been $35,995 awarded, and $54,005 is available so the City Council approved opening a second funding round. Roca p: To be eligible, property owners within the CRA area must be fully paid and current on property taxes, and must maintain compliance with their local business tax requirements (formerly occupational licensing). In 2007, Staff recommended some program changes that increased the amount of grant funds and lowered the match requirements. These changes were supported and approved by City Council. Up to $7,500 is available for signage and landscaping improvements, and up to $15,000 for improvements to the facade, signage and landscaping. The funds must be used for criteria that help create/expand the "Old Florida Fishing Village" theme, fagade improvements that maintain the historic character of the property and projects that remedy a non -conforming sign. Additionally, funds may be awarded for landscaping projects that improve the project and fulfill the requirements of the landscape code_ Ina funding cycle, applications are solicited from property owners within the CRA district. Applications are open to any property owner in the CRA and are advertised primarily through the City's website and through the Chamber of Commerce. Applications are reviewed by the grant review committee. This committee is currently comprised of Al Minner (City Manager), Rebecca Grohall (Growth Management Director), Beth Mitchell (Chamber of Commerce) and Al Paternoster (Councilmember). The committee reviews the applications and forwards a recommendation to the CRA Board (City Council) for final approval. Current Application cycle: The grant committee met on July 1st, 2008, to review the three applications received (Captain Hiram's, Anchor Plaza and VFW). Further information was asked to be provided for Anchor Plaza and the VFW and the committee reconvened on August 8th, 2008. Each grantee met the threshold criteria: • Current with local business tax requirements • No outstanding code violations • Current on property taxes within the City municipal limits. There was consensus on the committee to recommend to the City Council that all three applications be awarded the grant. Although it should be noted that there was dissent regarding the recommendation of the VFW to City Council for the grant. Discussion about the VFW ensued regarding their status as a not-for-profit with an ad valorem tax exempt status. However, there was the counter argument that the VFW has considerable street frontage along 512 in the triangle portion of the CRA district. The grant would be used to improve the overall appearance of the VFW property and also the 512 right of way. The details on each: 1) Captain Hiram's complex: Two separate grants were applied for signage for the resort (hotel) and restaurant. Overall, Captain Hiram's has indicated that $71,492.00 was expended replacement of their signage in January 2007. They are requesting consideration for two grants in the amount of $7,500 each for a total of $15,000.00. 2) Anchor Plaza: Landscaping, including a well and irrigation for $10,498.70 and new signage in the amount of 7,275.00 Total requested is $17,774, the maximum eligible for new signage and landscaping under the program guidelines is 50% or maximum of $7,500. Therefore, the committee recommends the Council consider funding in the amount of $7,500.00. 3) VFW: new signage and landscaping totaling $13,741.77, and the committee recommends funding for 50% of that amount: $6,870.50. For all three grants, the committee recommended a total of $29,371 be awarded. That would bring the total to date awarded to $65,366 and still have a balance of $24,625 (not including any future CRA budget annual funding). This is shown on the table on the following page. After the grant applications were reviewed, there was discussion about the composition of the review committee. Beth Mitchell resigned (her letter is attached) and the meeting was adjourned.

The review committee submits to Council the following discussion points to modify the program: • The Growth Management director and/or City /Manager fulfill an advisory role to the Committee (not be voting committee members). • City Council should solicit and accept applications for 3 to 5 persons to be voting committee members from the CRA district. • Revisions to the program be made after the new grant review committee is convened. • The Committee would still review and make recommendations to the City Council/CRA for final approval. • Change grant match requirements from the CRA providing 50% of the total funds, to the CRA providing 80% of the total (80120). • Stronger language to restrict grants for improvements that have been installed prior to application. • Limits on the number of grants that can be received (i.e. one grant in a 10 year period). Recommendation:. Approval of the three grants, convene a review committee, and modifications to FSL program as outlined above. 01 Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting August 27, 2008 Page Six Mr. Wolff said for the record in his opinion, "Tom Collins does not need the money, I never said Capt. Hiram's doesn't need the money; and Tom Collins and Capt_ Hiram's will carry on with or without our assistance and there is a difference between comparing a little CRA grant and certainly the Board of Adjustment and the impact on a neighborhood." Mayor Coy called for the vote to disapprove the application based on criteria. Roll call on the motion was as follows: Ayes: Simchick, Coy, Neglia Nays: Wolff, Paternoster 3-2 Mayor Coy asked Capt. Hiram's to apply for other programs. Mayor Coy stated on circle page 11 'there is a staff request to revamp the grant program and she asked if Council would like to schedule another meeting or discuss it tonight. Mr. Paternoster requested it be brought up at the next CRA meeting. The City Manager said they would hold off on the FSL grants for now and it will be a budget discussion item at a September meeting - Mayor Coy thanked Beth Mitchell, Executive Director, Sebastian River Area Chamber of Commerce, for her assistance with the program and serving or the committee. 6. Being no further business, the Mayor adjourned the meeting at 6:44 p.m. Approved at the Sept. 17, 2008 CRA meeting. Andrea Coy, Mayor A TTE Sallyallyy A.

CITY Of 5E ASTLAtNBA HOME OF PELICAN ISLAND CRA AGENDA TRANSMITTAL Subject: Agenda No. 0112- 7 Facade, Sign and Landscaping Grant Program Update Department Orig' : G 1(9-), City Attorney: A City Clerk: uqust4a,2009 Submittal by: Date Submitted: tArotor For: CRA Meeting of August 12, 2009 I ' ne , City Manager Exhibits: None EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: AMOUNT BUDGETED: APPROPRIATION N/A REQUIRED: $30,000 Annually N/A At the request of Council Member Jim Hill, the following Facade, Sign and Landscape (FSL) report is provided. The intent of the report is to (1) provide a narrative and expense history on the program; (2) highlight the programs shortcomings; and, (3) provide recommendations as discussion points for program improvements. NARRATIVE AND EXPENSE HISTORY In 2005, the City established a FSL grant program to assist property owners make improvements within the CRA boundary. In general, the funds must be used to help create/expand the "Old Florida Fishing Village" theme by making FSL improvements that maintain the historic character or achieve the architectural vernacular sought by the community. Emphasis was on remedying non -conforming signs. Additionally, funds may be awarded for landscaping projects that improve the overall project and fulfill the requirements of the landscape code. The basic grant criteria are that each application must: 1. Be current with local business tax requirements; 2. Be current on property taxes; 3. Be located within the CRA District, and, 4. Have no outstanding code violations. The City grant thresholds for matching funds are: 1. Up to $7,500 for signage and landscaping improvements; and, 2. Up to $15,000 for facade, signage and landscaping. Funding cycles were then created and applications were solicited from property owners within the CRA district. Advertising for the program was through the City's website and through the Chamber of Commerce. Applications are reviewed by a FSL Grant Review Committee comprised of All Minner (City Manager), Rebecca Grohall (Growth Management Director), Beth Mitchell (Chamber of Commerce) and, later, Al Paternoster as a Council representative. The committee reviewed applications and made recommendations to the CRA Board (City Council) for final approval. Beth Mitchell resigned from the committee last fall. The CRA allocated $30,000 per year to be used as City matching funds for Fiscal Years 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. A $30,000 allocation is proposed for FY 2010. Below is a chart which depicts funding and reimbursed projects: FISCAL YEAR — RECIPIENT FUNDS AVAILABLE CITY MATCHING FY 2006 $30,000 Buena Vista Eyeland $6,050 FY 2007 $30,000 Wendy's $3,251 Professional Animal World/HALO $15,000 Professional Title (Expired) $0 FY 2008 (Round t) $30,000 Keg Shack $5,005 Sebastian Executive Plaza $4,000 FY 2008 (Round 11) Anchor Plaza $7,500 Captain Hiram's $15,000 VFW $6,775 FY 2009 $30,000 $0 TOTAL FUNDS $120,000 $62,581 REMAINING FUNDS $57,419 At of the end of FY 2009, $57,419 is still available for grant funding. If $30,000 is allocated for FY 2010, $87,419 will be available effective October 1, 2009. PROGRAM SHORTCOMINGS Essentially two short comings have affected the FSL grant program. First, it was believed that the grant award level was too low; thereby, prohibiting participation. Originally, the program funded on a 67% (Applicant) to 33% (City Match) ratio. This was increased to 50% (Applicant) to 50% (City Match) in 2007. Secondly, concern grew over whether grant awards should be provided to recipients for improvements made prior to FSL grant application. These shortcomings led to the CRA Board requesting that the FSL grant program be suspended until the grant criteria are reviewed. RECOMMENDATIONS Upon review, the following actions have been discussed by staff and are provided for your consideration and direction. ➢ City Staff - The Growth Management director and/or City Manager should not be members of the FSL Grant Review Committee. Y A New Composition for FSL Grant Review Committee — The CRA Board should create a new FSL Grant Review Committee that functions in the same fashion as other advisory boards and makes 9 recommendations to the CRA Board for final grant award. The Growth Management Director shall serve as a liaison to the FSL Grant Review Committee. The Committee should be five members with the following composition: A. Three (3) persons owning businesses in the CRA district; and, B. Two (2) citizens at large. ➢ Increase Grant Allocation Ratios — While this recommendation has positives and negatives, the CRA Board should increase the grant allocation ratios to 20% (Applicant) and 80% (City Match). An ancillary discussion point should be to discuss increasing the total grant award parameters ($7,500 for signage & landscaping projects and $15,000 for sign, landscaping & facade improvements). In today's economy these types of improvements are not going to be made. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe participation has been low because the FSL Grant is not providing enough incentive. Hence, increasing the match can be viewed as a redevelopment stimulus. Application Restrictions - If grant allocations are increased then tougher restrictions are needed such as: A. No grant awards shall be made for improvements that have been made or commenced prior to grant application. B. After being a recipient of an FSL Grant, an application can not be made for another grant within 10 years. This regulation should be retroactive to the inception of the FSL Grant program. The CRA Board should discuss the above outlined recommendations and direct staff to modify the FSL Grant program accordingly. The changes can be modified, brought back to the CRA Board for formal ratification and a new grant cycle can begin once the FY 2010 CRA budget is adopted. 0 CRA Meeting August 12, 2409 Page Three Mr. Lowe tried to remember: the Sebastian Inlet Tax District - $18,000, Chamber of Commerce, Sebastian Medical Center - 3 to $5,000, Dent $2,500, the Mangrove Foundation, and the McKee Foundation. MOTION by Ms. Coy and second by Mayer Gillmor to approve $20,000 to get the documentary out and make it public. Nis. Coy asked the City Attorney if anything prohibits the CFA from funding a production that is going to PBS. The City Attorney said no. Ruth Stanbridge said she is very proud of the City for realizing the importance of this for the environment and hopefully it will bring in folks from the Midwest. Joe Scozzari agreed with Ms. Coy, and said to dump the billboards previously approved and give Mr. Loge $40,000. Damien Gilliams, 1623 US Hwy 1, said the Board is going to give $20,000 without a proposal or paperwork when there are roads that need repaired. He said he wasn't against the project but it needed to be funded by grant money, festival proceeds and he noted Pelican Island is not even in the CRA district, Barbara Salmon, member of the Natural Resources Board, said what will be reaped from this will be well north every penny. Mr. Hill said the film is spectacular, he learned much from the film and it shoves the beauty of the area. He thanked Ms. Stanbridge for bringing Mr. Lome to the City. Mayor Gillmor said he can't wait to get it on Channel 25 and it will bring people here to help with redevelopment. Mr. Wolff said he supported a donation but objected to the '$20,000 amount given the current economy and knowing that roads and signs meed attention in the district. He said we should get something in writing stating we can Bair it on Channel 25, pointing out Indian River County provided funds for the St. Johns River film and we should see if the County got something in writing. Result of the roll call.- AYES: all:AYES: Gillmor, Hill, Coy, Simchick NAYS: Wolff 4-1 09.127 B. Facade, Sr na a and Landsca a Pr ram Report(Cily Manager Transmittal 11-13 The City Manager said at the request of Council, staff put together a summary and update on the Facade, Signage, and Landscape (FSL) Grant program. He went over the points of the agenda transmittal and said should Council decide to fund the program for the 2010 cycle, $87,419 will be available to do so.. He said staff sought direction and recommended: -the review committee be comprised of CRA business owners and citizens at large -increase the allocation -and increase the application restrictions 3 CRA Meeting August 12, 2009 Fuge Four Ms. Simchick said one nonvoting staff member should be on the committee and after the City Manager explained staff thought there should be a staff liaison to the committee she said that would be okay as long as the staff member is in attendance. Mr. Wolff asked what avenue the applicant would have if they get frustrated with the committee. The City Manager said that no matter what happens, the applicant could always appeal that to the CRA Board. Mr. Wolff asked when staff thought about increasing the ratio if they considered the viability of the business citing the past recipient Keg Shack which is no longer open. The City Manager said that mould be left to the discretion of the committee and explained applications receive points based on the project. Mr. Wolff asked how do we prevent the CRA from investing a lot of money on improvements that have a limited shelf life. The City Manager said in his own opinion that is a risk we have to take because we are asking businesses to develop to a standard which costs more money and he felt to delineate based on the economy is an unfair burden on the recipient. Mr. Wolff asked if this is a program that allows a new -coming business to participate or is it for established businesses that may want to upgrade their sign. The City Manager said it does allow for new business to apply but most of the applications are redevelopment and it would be incumbent for new businesses to check on these types of things which generally is disclosed during the permitting/application process. Mayor Gillmor said there are five recommendations from staff and asked if the other members are happy with the recommendations. Mr. Hili said he had no issue with any of the recommendations and he looked forward to moving again and helping businesses out. Ms. Coy dittoed Mr. Hill's comments. ®on Wright, 720 N. Fischer Circle, said the four grant criteria listed on circle page 11 are more like restrictions than criteria, which might be expressed as that; it might not be necessary for applicants to be in the CRA district as the program can help a business stay in business; and the grant could help businesses correct their code violations. Mr. Wright said the committee composition should be property owners, and/or business owners and/or their employees who would be committed to seeing the improvements. He also said the criteria should help the committee decide value of the improvement to be made, and limiting an applicant from reapplying for ten years is a negative restriction but it could be used as criteria for award. ,doe Scozzari, Sebastian, agreed with Mr. Wright, noting there are many restrictions in the CRA district. Mayor Gillmor said the match percentage of 80/20 makes it seem like the CRA is carrying the whole improvement. Mr. Hill said the money is there to 'help beautify the business community which isn't thriving right now and having the 20% commits the business owner. 4 CIA Meeting August 12, 2009 Page Five Ms. Simchick pointed out that no one had the money to apply for the last cycles. She said the recommendations are fine and we should move forward with a fine tuned application, three business/property owner committee membership, and modifying the 10 year reapplication restriction. Ms. Coy asked to polish up the word "commenced." The City Manager said the Board recommendations have been well taken and staff will bring back the grant application form so they can see the criteria. He noted there haven't been a lot of applicants so it was almost a token past applicants would get funded. Mr. Wolff said the committee should be from the CRA, and the 10 year restriction is pretty heavy, and it should be more on merit. Mr. Hill said there should be a time frame, but 10 years is lengthy. Ms. Simchick said maybe restricting same cycle application and suggested preference could be given to first time applicants. Mr. Hill said the committee and Board could watch out for how many times a business applies, and suggested eliminating the restriction B altogether. There was a general consensus of Council to have a three year reapplication restriction. Ms. Simchick suggested a future meeting to review the CRA master plan. 6.

Should Council approve FSL Program as outlined above, a resolution will be brought before the GRA Board adopting a FSL Review Committee.

MOTION by Ms. Simchick and SECOND by Mr. dill to approve Resolution 09-01. Ms. Coy said the Cavcorp design is just conceptual and the Board should keep it in the budget and obtain lots of positive feedback to move forward, Mayor Gillmor responded to the second speaker, stating he had asked the City Manager to provide information to him regarding what the County had paid into the CRA, and he said including this year it is at $1.6 M, and it would be foolhardy to get rid of the CRA. He further discussed ideas for the beautification of the area including street side parking which would enhance the businesses in the district. Result of the Roll Call: Ayes: All Nays: None Passed 5-0 6. FACADE, SIGNAGE AND LANDSCAPE GRANT APPLICATION A. Approval of Facade. Signage, and Landscape Guidelines (City Manager 17-28 Transmittal, Application) Damien Gilliams, 1623 US Highway One, Sebastian, said he had applied for an FSL grant during the last phase and had been denied because of delinquent taxes, that Ms. Simchick was the only one who stood up for him, said he thought he was entitled to 113 of the grant to a condominium association because he was a 113 owner, and asked if he would be allowed to continue applying for a grant when his taxes are paid. Mayor Gillmor said someone would get back to him and IVIS. Simchick asked Mr. Gilliams what the question was. He asked again if he would be eligible to reapply. Mr. Wolff pointed out that the grant is not provided to people delinquent on taxes and Mr. Hill pointed out the grant language states it is not available to anyone who has made the improvement prior to applying for the grant. Ms. Simchick said the provision Mr. Hill cited was in place and the Board waived it twice for others. She asked the City Attorney if that comes up can it be waived again, and the City Attorney responded yes. Ms. Coy said that was not in the rules then and that is why it is there now. Ms. Simchick said it used to say work in place prior to application would not be considered. 3 Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting September 23, 2009 Page Four Mr. Gilliams said he wanted this on the record and thanked Council for being understanding in hard times. Joe Scozzari, Sebastian said one grantee was the VFW, which took $7500 of taxpayer money and said they don't pay taxes, mentioned Ms. Coy's name in the applicant process, and said though he does not begrudge the military, tax exempt organizations should not be entitled to the grant. Ms. Coy asked the Growth Management Director if there was anything abnormal about the application for that grant, and the Growth Management Director explained the FSL purpose and the process and said there was nothing unusual. Ms. Coy said any more comments of this nature can go to the State Attorneys' office. Mr. Scozzari returned to the podium to rebut her, but was warned twice by Mayor Gillmor and asked to take his seat. Mr. Wolff asked if the grant was available to churches, since it stated residential or commercial. The Growth Management Director said that was a good question, but thought that language was not intended to exclude churches, and perhaps that can be brought back for further discussion. Mr. Hill noted that the language should actually read grant match is 20%. MOTION by Mr. Hill and SECOND by Ms. Coy to approve the FSL guidelines.

Resolution No. R-09-02 -- Formulating Review Committee The City Attorney read the title of Resolution No. R-09-02. Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting November 18, 2009 Page Two MOTION by Mr. Hill and SECOND by Mayor Gillmor to approve Resolution No. R-09-02. Damien Gilliams, 1623 U.S. Highway 1, congratulated the new board members and said in the past the board talked about expediting things to make it easier for businesses yet this adds another committee that a business has to get past, adding regulation on top of regulation. Mr. Wright noted the panel composition on page seven does not mention that you have to be a resident. He said getting business owners together to make recommendations in the CRA makes sense. Ms. Coy and Mayor Gillmor asked if this could be stipulated in the resolution. The City Attorney replied having ownership of the property would be sufficient for their general purposes. Mr. Hill said that is exactly how he reads the resolution. Result of the roll call: AYES: Hill, Coy, Wright, Gillmor NAPES: None Being no further business, the Mayor adjourned the meeting at 6:07 p.m. but noticed Ms. Lisanne Robinson waving her hand in the audience. At the advice of the City Attorney, MOTION by Mr. Hill and SECOND by Ms. Coy to allow public input passed unanimously. The City Manager said he advised Ms. Robinson to come before the board with her items but the meeting adjourned too quickly. New Business Lisanne Robinson, US Highway 1, said the Sebastian Riverfront Fine Arts and Music Festival scheduled for January 23 and 24 will be phenomenal, and she asked if she could hang a 9 x 13 ft banner across the billboards closest to the City advertising "Sebastian Riverfront Fine Arts and Music Festival Coming January 23 and 24 at $1.25 a square foot plus $50.00 for installation for a total of $250.00 which is within the advertising budget already approved. Mr. Hill asked if she had a description and if she would be responsible for taking it down after the event. Ms. Monier said it would advertise the coming festival and make sure the $50.00 installation fee includes the removal. Mr. Wright said it was a great way to effectively use the billboard. 2
