As a result of the passage of the waterfront access and acquisition referendum, the County is now looking for suitable properties. A publicefro=ndevelopmenwill bet of ld in an the near future to solicit input acquisition plan. We have been requested toridenta for properties ii niintthep City might be appropriate 2. We have completed a highly successful United Way Campaign among City employees. A total of 508 of the employees made pledges totaling $1,037.00. 3. pursuant to our contract with Port Canaveral for fire- fighting protection, they are required to pay one-third of the fire department's operating budget in quarterly installments. The first quarterly installment was $1,545.83 shrt of ey a aso obeing andeductiondofmthetFirehInspectorasthis tags salary, claiming they were not inspected. It is our position that this is irrelevant, and the Port has breached the fire- fighting agreement. The Port contract allows only for drant the exclusion of three line items, those being by rental, hydrant installation and fireworks. However, the contract is not to be looked at as a line by line budget to the. Porto but rather as an agreement to provide services for a previously agreed upon dollar amount which was pegged to the operating budget.

BO% 220 TELEPHONE 205 793-1100 November 29, 1984 M E M O R A N D U M TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM- CITY MANAGER RE: STORM DAMAGE AND EROSION The City was fortunate that we did not receive the severity of damage from this past weekend's storm that the rest of the County endured. No City structures were damaged, but the beach suffered a large erosion of sand. Loss of forty to fifty feet of beachfront was not uncommon. In some areas, however, sand was deposited, resulting in an in- creased elevation of six to twelve inches. The primary dune line was breached in few locations,causing ocean water to run down some street ends and on to some private property. The area of most concern was from Madison Avenue to the North City limits. Water reached Ridgewood Avenue at Surf and Central, and approached the first floor units at Canaveral Sands Condominiums. The state and federal Emergency Management teams are currently assessing the damage to Brevard County to determine if State or Federal aid is warranted. An Erosion Advisory. COMM ttee has been formed to review the impact of the beach erosion. Immediate action from the state or federal governments is fenses, or much more needed to address the weakened beach de destruction may occur if we encounter another storm of similar magnitude this winter. I will keep you advised of any progress made in this area. FCN-ab Arer cE C.
