14.014 A. Citv Manaaer Selection Process (Administrative Services Transmittal
The Administrative Services Director said at the November meeting when Mr. Minner
resigned, discussion took place about selection, in December Mr. Griffin was selected as
interim, that we have brought forth tonight the options available for moving forward with
the process, with number one being to appoint Joe as the interim City Manager, we can
do a search in -house as done previously, go through FCCMA Range Riders, or hire a
firm and left it to Council discretion and said staff will proceed accordingly.
Mr. Gillmor said in looking at the timeframe provided by staff, we can go from five to
seven months if we go through the selection process either in -house or outside, that staff
is eminently qualified to do this in- house, and if Council chose to go through the
selection process he would like to see retired a City Manager help us, however, said we
have an excellent choice in Mr. Griffin. He said there was a 5 -0 vote to make him interim,
Mr. Minner's departure was very quick and he took a job he wasn't really seeking, he
had gone over Mr. Griffin's application, has worked with him for 4 or 5 years, he holds a
BA and MBA from FSU, served the City well as Airport Manager and Community
Development Director, captained a 747, and was a Marine Corps Aviator. Mr. Gillmor
said beyond the degrees, he had complete confidence in Joe's character and said he is
a straight shooter, and most importantly he has the confidence and support of many of
the cities' employees and they are all on board with Joe being the City Manager.

He said he would not like to go through a five to seven month process, because it
would be destructive to city employees' morale.
MOTION by Mr. Gillmor to appoint Mr. Griffin City Manager permanently died for lack
of a second.
Ms. Coy said she doesn't disagree with Mr. Gillmor's evaluation of Mr. Griffin, and
she echoes all of those words, he is an extraordinarily hard working individual and he
has gained respect of staff and council, but her disagreement is in the process, and
believed we should go through the process and have the staff do so, and there was
no need for Range Riders. She said we went through this process nine years ago in-
house, and interviewed between 70 and 90 applications, it takes a little time and in
the meantime we have still have Mr. Griffin and she assumed he is going to apply for
the job, but the process is an important thing for transparency to make sure there
isn't that one other guy out there. She said everyone now knows we have a great
guy here, but the process is important, and preference is option number two.
Mr. Adams said he agreed with Mr. Gillmor, in the time he has worked with Mr. Griffin he
had nothing but good things to say about him. He said we should follow process only to
be fair to the other employees, there may be others here who are interested in applying
for the position, and he would approach it in a two pronged manner, open it up to in-
house applicants first and if there is no suitable applicant then go outside.
Mayor McPartlan said that cuts the pool because there aren't many qualified to submit
applications.
Ms. Coy corrected them saying in -house means Debbie Krueger does the search and
process, not having someone else do it.
Mayor McPartlan said he thinks Joe is extremely qualified for the position, and he has
nothing but great things to say about him, but we need to go through the process, and
he would lean toward number two with getting the FCCMA involved, that some of the
weeks could be cut, did not think we need to wait five or six weeks for applications, and
having an excellent person in place as an interim City Manager may keep a lot of people
from applying, which gives Mr. Griffin a chance to shine through that process and will
make our selection process easier, using an FCCMA Range Rider.
MOTION by Mayor McPartlan and SECOND by Mr. Gillmor to go with option two using
the Range Riders.
Mr. Adams asked if there was a cost involved. Ms. Krueger said we have not used them
before but it would be minimal, maybe travel, but she would verify and email Council.
Ms. Coy asked what guarantee we have that we will get a good one, because not
everyone was a good city manager, and again asked why can't we do it ourselves
because we are paid to make decisions and it doesn't take long to read the applications.
Mayor McPartlan said he can tell qualifications but doesn't know what kind of city they
worked in and a retired Manager would know that. Ms. Coy said we can ask those
questions in the application process.

Mayor McPartlan said people always put good things in their applications and unless he
researched, he would not know, and former city managers know the cities.
Mr. Gillmor said we are going to get a lot of people coming to Florida from out of state to
get out of the cold, and in speaking to Jason Nunemaker, he said a lot of people want to
retire and get paid for it, but this is a big responsible job and is 24/7 and we should not
get excited about applications from out of state, and resumes can be jimmied up. He
said he would have no problem looking over all the applications, but using the Range
Rider program will provide a little respite for our employees.
Ms. Coy said we pay our employees to do that job, and it wasn't that difficult the last
time, and we have each other, we read through and ultimately three or four members put
someone in the good pile, then we decide how many we call in for interview. She said
you will get a lot of out of town resumes, but a lot of those didn't even make the cut. She
said if there are three Range Rider votes she wants to see all the applications.
Mayor McPartlan said we can see all the applications, have already set minimum
qualifications so that knocks off time, and if we start forward with Range Riders it puts us
ahead of the game.
Ms. Coy asked what they will do that we can't do, and Mayor McPartlan said they will
come talk to us about what we want and then assist us.
Ms. Krueger said they meet with City Council to determine what they are looking for,
assist Administrative Services with the ad, recommend semi - finalist candidates, but the
resumes are ours and Council can review whatever they want. She said she can contact
them tomorrow and have them send a package to us and get that out to them.
Ms. Coy asked what it costs, and Ms. Krueger said she was not sure but thought travel
costs. She said they don't do background checks or references. Ms. Coy asked don't we
already have qualifications already made up.
Mayor McPartlan said they can suggest other things, there are new ideas out there, and
they have more expertise does and can help us to see what we should be looking for in
our situation.
Mr. Gillmor said it is just an extra pair of eyes, noted he had met a gal starting at the
Police Department retired from Homeland Security, and we are blessed to have folks like
that to assist us, so using a retired City Manager can take pressure off employees.
Mr. Adams said it sounds like the Range Rider program is not doing that much more
than what staff can do for that process and his concern is cost, and if it is minimal then it
is worth it, but if it is a high cost he was not sure he would be in favor, so he is on the
fence right now. He said if it was less than $5K he would be in favor.
Ms. Coy said what if by the next meeting Debbie has contacted them and we could get a
name and we can know the cost. Mayor McPartlan said that can put us back another two
weeks.

Mayor McPartlan changed his motion to using the Range Riders as long as it doesn't
cost more than $51K. Mr. Gillmor seconded the change.
George Scozzi said at the last meeting Council appointed Joe Griffin as interim,
everyone said he is eminently qualified, he is a Sebastian resident and he is going to
stay here, and this has to be tough on him. He asked if they hire someone, who will train
that person, that Mr. Griffin will be here, and his recommendation would be to
unanimously make him our permanent City Manager.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY FLORIDA; PROVIDING A
SHORT TITLE; PROVIDING FINDINGS AND INTENT; GRANTING TO PIVOTAL UTILITY HOLDINGS,
INC., DBA FLORIDA CITY GAS, ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, A NON - EXCLUSIVE FRANCHISE

two years, that representatives of Florida City Gas were present to answer questions,
and recommended approval on first reading and public hearing on February 121H
MOTION by Ms. Coy and SECOND by Mr. Adams to approve (pass on first reading and
set public hearing for February 12, 2014).
The Interim City Manager, in response to Mr. Gillmor, said this is something we have
been looking to for a long time, and will be a boon to businesses, that they will make a
significant investment and as seen by maps there are many businesses that this will
touch along 512, US 1 and Indian River Drive, and again that staff recommends

Ms. Coy thanked Council, staff and residents who participated in the Salvation Army bell
ringing at Walmart, which raised $1,400, said the Sebastian Walmart regained the #1
spot, we raised the most money in the County and that money will feed north county
folks, noting they are delivering hot meals to 160 people every Wednesday.
E. Council Member Gillmor
Mr. Gillmor said during his time away from Council he enjoyed the ability to talk to
Council members without cameras on us, and said it puts walls around each board
member and they cannot have conversations now because something may come before
them in the future. He suggested when there is a light agenda, or maybe once a quarter
we have our own little workshop and be able to talk about anything on our minds just to
establish a rapport amongst us. He discussed the idea of annexing commercial property
along the US 1 corridor south of the City limits to perhaps increase the tax base and
lower ad valorem taxes.
Ms. Coy responded if there is something she wants to add, she asks for it to be listed
and it becomes an agenda item at the next meeting, and that annexation depends on
whether the people want to come in to the City, and there is no reason to have a
great long discussion on it at this time.
Mayor McPartlan said if Mr. Gillmor wants to talk about something, he can ask Mr.
Griffin to put it to the agenda, and that his was a good idea.
17. Being no further business, Mayor McPartlan adjourned the meeting at 7:40 pm.

SUMMARY STATEMENT
Each year the Indian River County Supervisor of Elections provides an interlocal
agreement between her office and the City of Sebastian to set forth each party's
responsibilities for conducting the City's annual election.
In even years, the cost to the City for the SOE to conduct the election is $ .50 per
registered voter. That number will be determined at the close of voter registration
this year and is currently in excess of 16,200 for the City of Sebastian. In odd
years, when there is no County conducted election, our cost increases to $2.00
per registered voter. In even year elections, the County Canvassing Board will
also act as Canvassing Board for the City of Sebastian election as is set out in our
Charter and FS. In odd year elections, the City Canvassing Board canvasses the
election.
Just as a note of information, the Supervisor of Elections will provide early voting
in accordance with Florida law, and it will be conducted in the North County in our
City Council Chambers for the August primary and November general election.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Interlocal Agreement between the Supervisor of Elections for Indian
River County and the City of Sebastian setting out responsibilities and costs for
conducting the November 2014 municipal election and authorize the Mayor to
execute and the City Clerk to attest the agreement.

QUESTION. HOW WOULD YOUR EXPERIENCE BENEFIT THE BOARD YOU'RE APPLYING
FOR?
Ia *&IT6Ii1�
I have over 10 years of experience in Landscape Architecture, which covers a broad area
of site development. My professional experience has given me a complete understanding of the
issues that can and may concern Planning and Zoning, Parks and Recreation, Natural Resources
and Construction committees. Prior to moving to the City of Sebastian, I worked solely in the area
of designing parks and recreation areas such as nature trails, open space utilization, and sport
complexes; ranging from sports fields to skate parks. Since I moved to the City of Sebastian, I
have gained significant knowledge of native Florida plant material, landscape and irrigation
design, as well as attaining certification as a Florida Certified Horticulture Professional thru the
FNGLA, in addition to understanding the issues of intelligent sustainable development, the
positive impact of our parks and recreation areas, and the importance of our natural resources
and responsible water usage. Therefore, I believe that my experience and knowledge would
greatly benefit the Planning and Zoning Committee directly, as well as the Parks and Recreation,
Natural Resources, and Construction committees. In closing, as a resident of the City of
Sebastian, I am personally invested in the future of our city and would be honored to serve the
community and its interests as a Planning and Zoning, Parks and Recreation, Natural Resources
or Construction committee member.

SUMMARY
With the City Manager transition, Staff feels it is important to update the City Council on the status
of the outstanding capital projects that have been funded over the past several years. A complete
schedule has been provided as of the end of this past month showing the projects that have been
budgeted during the current year. They are divided as those that are essentially equipment purchases
versus actively managed construction efforts. Also shown are projects on hold for various reasons
and a couple of projects that have been recently completed. The key information provided on the
schedule includes the year the project was initially funded; the budget and amount of funds
remaining; the members of the management team chiefly responsible; and brief comments on the
status of each one. In addition, a summary list of projects approved for the Capital Improvement
Program for Fiscal Year 2014 -19 is being provided to show the large number of additional projects
that will be forthcoming.
RECOMMENDATION
No action is required. However, Staff would appreciate any direction the City Council may want to
offer regarding their view on projects that should be given priority. We also hope the City Council
will keep in mind the conditions Staff has worked under for the past several years. We have been
working with reductions in staffing and additional maintenance responsibilities, yet we have also
given high priority to a number of time - consuming high - profile efforts (Collier Creek Canal,
Powerline Road, Main Street Parking, Working Waterfront, CavCor Parking Design, 2011 Street
Repaving Program, Hanger "A" Construction and a number of Park Improvements.)

RESOLUTION NO. R -14 -01
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY,
FLORIDA, URGING STATE LEGISLATORS AND GOVERNOR SCOTT TO
RECOGNIZE THE EXTREME IMPORTANCE OF THE FRAGILE INDIAN
RIVER LAGOON, A DESIGNATED ESTUARY OF NATIONAL SIGNIFICANCE,
TO THE ENTIRE STATE OF FLORIDA; REQUESTING THAT THE STATE
RECOGNIZE THE NEED FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION TO ADDRESS THE
HEALTH OF THE INDIAN RIVER LAGOON AND PROVIDE ADEQUATE
FUNDING FOR TESTING TO FIND THE SOURCES OF POLLUTION AND
CREATE METHODS TO RESTORE THE LAGOON'S HEALTH TO PREVENT
ANY FURTHER LOSS OF DYING MARINE LIFE AND DEMISE OF ONE OF
FLORIDA'S MOST TREASURED ECOSYSTEMS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Indian River Lagoon is a 156 mile long estuary, designated as an
Estuary of National Significance in April 1990 by the Department of Environmental Protection,
and was once teeming with marine life, providing $3.7 billion to the coastal economy of the
Treasure Coast region, and is a precious ecosystem for the entire State of Florida, bordering
five Florida counties and 40% of Florida's coastline; and
WHEREAS, in the past few years the Indian River Lagoon has lost hundreds of
thousands of acres of seagrass beds, the foundation of its ecosystem, and marine life is dying in
unprecedented numbers, including manatees, dolphins, sea turtles and birds, as well as oyster
reefs and wetlands; and
WHEREAS, stormwater and fresh water runoff carrying nutrients and effluent into the
brackish lagoon are seen as the root cause of the pollution, though more testing is needed to
find the answers; and
WHEREAS, saving our Lagoon has become a rallying cry for the City of Sebastian and
many other government and private groups which have come together at the municipal, county,
and state level, including the Treasure Coast and Space Coast communities which border the
Indian River Lagoon, in a united effort to work diligently to find causes and solutions; and
WHEREAS; in 2013, State Legislators proposed $2M in funding for testing along the
length of the Indian River to find the sources of pollution, and funding was vetoed by Governor
Scott because the purpose, lagoon testing by Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute scientists,
was deemed by the Governor to lack statewide significance and would not provide a significant
return for the investment; and
WHEREAS, without needed funding provided at the state and federal levels, the local
agencies and private organizations cannot move forward to find answers and it is time for all of
us to take action to save our Indian River Lagoon for future generations before it is too late.
