over several accounts. Mayor Randels also noted the Council Chambers audio purchase
that benefits the listening public. Ms. Bowers noted the Law Enforcement computer
purchase. Mr. Boucher stated that the purchase did not change the Law Enforcement

REPEAL OF PRIOR INCONSISTENT ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS; PROVIDING
FOR INCORPORATION INTO THE CODE; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
For the record, Mayor Randels read the Whereas Clauses within the ordinance. Mayor
Randels stated that this ordinance was initiated to protect the residents' public, health,
safety and welfare. The intent would allow Code Enforcement Officers to cite individuals
who perform construction work in the City without a valid permit. Mr. Boucher suggested
to change Section 5 to read, "effective upon 30 days of adoption" to help the Building
Official provide adequate notice. Council members concurred with the change. Attorney
Garganese stated that a Resolution to adopt a citation form would be on the next City
Council meeting agenda. Mr. Morley informed he would place a citation form at the
Building Department counter to make contractors aware of the new code as well as
including an article in the next City newsletter. A warning to unlicensed contractors would
also be placed on the marquee.

RESOLUTIONS:
5. Motion to Adopt: Resolution No. 2004-20; Formally Supporting Continued
Operation of Patrick Air Force Base and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CAPE CANAVERAL, BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA,
FORMALLY SUPPORTING CONTINUED OPERATION OF PATRICK AIR FORCE BASE AND
CAPE CANAVERAL AIR FORCE STATION; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Mayor Randels explained that a group within the Department of Defense has decided that
20 percent of the nation's military bases are no longer needed. At the local level, the
decision to close a base is dependent on the mission of the facility and the need in the
community. Congress will delay closures for two years; however, closures are imminent.
Mayor Randels said that the preservation of Patrick is fundamental, but more than that it is
a receivership in the community of those people who enjoy the local amenities. A lobbying
effort is forthcoming in Washington in an effort to retain Patrick Air Force Base. Mayor
Randels reviewed the many valuable programs managed through the Base and
emphasized their benefit to the community. He also provided statistical data on the
economic impact of having the base in the area. Council members expressed their support
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
May 18, 2004
Page 4 of 9
of the resolution. Mr. Donald Dunne inquired about the economic benefits of not having the
base in its location. Mayor Randels replied that one main criterion was the value of the
land if the government should sell to a private enterprise. Mr. Leo Nicholas explained that
if the government sold the land, a one-time benefit of sale would occur; however, it would
mean residual services to the people who live in future developments. Mayor Randels
reminded that since the 1995 Base Realignment and Closure, only Homestead which was
already closed due to Hurricane Andrew was eliminated.
A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Hoog and seconded by Mr. Miller to Adopt
Resolution No. 2004-20; Formally Supporting Continued Operation of Patrick Air
Force Base and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The vote on the motion carried
5-0 with voting as follows: Mayor Pro Tem Hoog, For; Mr. Miller, For; Mr. Morgan,
For; Mayor Randels, For and Mr. Treverton, For.
6. Motion to Adopt: Resolution No. 2004-21; Sunrise Villas Final Plat.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CAPE CANAVERAL, BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA;
APPROVING THE FINAL PLAT OF "SUNRISE VILLAS TOWNHOMES"; AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR AND THE CITY CLERK TO CERTIFY THE PLAT; PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
Mr. Morgan stated that he had a personal interest in the project and Mayor Pro Tem Hoog
also declared a Voting Conflict of Interest. Both Council Members completed a Conflict
Form and submitted the same to the City Clerk. Attorney Garganese stated that Mr.
Morgan and Mayor Pro Tem Hoog could participate in discussion on the item; however,
they could not vote. Mr. Morgan stated that the project location is just south of Central
Blvd. Mayor Randels informed that the packet contains the approval of the Fire
Department and the recommendation of the City Planner with regard to land development.
Mayor Randels referred to a statement at the bottom of Page One under Public Services
Facilities that reads, "impacts on public services for 14, three residential units are level of
services for parks, recreation and two area parks". Mr. Morgan replied that he only had
knowledge of three units. Mr. Morgan stated that there are approximately 2.7 acres left for
development and under the City code, 15 residential units per acre were allowed.
A motion was made by Mayor Randels and seconded by Mr. Miller to Adopt
Resolution No. 2004-21; Sunrise Villas Final Plat. The vote on the motion carried
3-0 with voting as follows: Mr. Miller, For; Mayor Randels, For and Mr. Treverton,
For.
DISCUSSION:
7. Community Center.
Mayor Randels informed that Cape Canaveral was invited to meet with the Cocoa Beach
Commission regarding the Freedom 7 Center. He recounted the history of various
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
May 18, 2004
Page 5 of 9
Freedom 7 Center locations and summarized that Freedom 7 is looking for another
location at this time. A joint meeting was held on May 5th with the Cocoa Beach
Commission and the Cape Canaveral City Council to discuss ideas to assist with the
relocation. Several concepts were discussed including a special taxing district shared by
East Merritt Island, Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral. Ms. Nancy Hanson provided a list
of the many activities that the Cape Canaveral Recreation Center provides for seniors in
the community. Mr. Morgan expressed that the City is having a difficult time finding
property to locate Cape Canaveral facilities. He expressed that the existing Center's
minimal annual membership fee was another concern and perhaps a fee restructuring
would provide funding support. Mayor Randels informed that surveys confirmed that most
people would not travel out of their locale to participate in activities.
Mr. Morgan inquired about the land on the east side of the hospital and said that this might
be modified to meet the Center's needs. Mr. Miller said that Senior's activities are covered
through the City's Recreation Center. He expressed that it would be redundant for
Canaveral residents to support a tax when the stakeholder share is minimal. Mr. Treverton
concurred and noted that Cocoa Beach had only one seniors program. Mayor Pro Tem
Hoog brought out that the Commission planned to pledge $30,000 to subsidize the
program; however, no facility was available for its patrons. Mr. Boucher read from the
upcoming Cocoa Beach Agenda in that the Mayor of Cocoa Beach requested $30,000 for
the 2005 budget to support Freedom 7 at its current location until long term facilities could
be found or to direct the City Manager to begin negotiations with Brevard County and
Cape Canaveral to find a long term solution for Freedom 7 including but not limited to a
Recreation District Referendum to build a center. Mr. Morgan stated that he would like to
see the City of Cocoa Beach implement a program at the Country Club facility. Mr.
Treverton pointed out that the land at the old Cocoa Beach library is also available. Mayor
Randels suggested that the City Manager forward them the Recreation Director activities
analysis.
Mayor Randels reported that he and the City Manager met with Ms. Gail Daley, Executive
Director. The question at the onset was property availability in Cape Canaveral in order to
relocate the Center. Ms. Joyce Barry, Secretary for the Freedom 7 Board, said that there
was land available near the Surfside Players playhouse. Ms. Barry stated that the Center
was merely looking for temporary available space, perhaps to a room in the Canaveral
Recreation Center when not in use, should the Freedom 7 need to move immediately. Ms.
Barry stated that Freedom 7 emphasizes life enrichment activities in addition to bingo and
dances. Mr. Morgan suggested using the meeting rooms at local hotels. Ms. Nancy
Hanson commented on the results of committing to a taxing district along with East Merritt
Island and Cocoa Beach if the City residents did not elect to do so. Mayor Randels stated
that for temporary use, the Recreation Center could be available for limited use. Mr.
Boucher reiterated that he planned to report to the Cocoa Beach City Manager that: 1)the
Cape Canaveral Council is a conservative body and was not interested at this time in
forming a special taxing district, 2)the Cape Canaveral's Recreation Department provides
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
May 18, 2004
Page 6 of 9
many senior activities throughout the year and he would include the analysis report, and 3)
Cape Canaveral is willing to maintain a dialogue with all related parties on this situation.
Representative Bob Allen arrived at this time.
Mayor Randels introduced Representative Bob Allen of District 32. Representative Allen
expressed that he chaired the Brevard County Delegation this year. Representative Allen
reported on the process of designating the State soup and said that during the
reorganization of the Secretary of State, the State soup was set aside and will return
during the next session. Representative Allen reported that the Legislative session did well
with $58 billion in Florida's budget this year. Florida sales tax revenues continued to
provide revenue during tax cuts. The budget reflects a 7 percent growth. He stated that
$21.8 billion of the budget was allocated to health insurance and human services.
Representative Allen stated that for-profit HMO is a concern in that using a business
model in the health care industry would not fairly compare value with service.
Representative Allen reported that $18 billion of the State budget is for education. The
District Cost Differential (DCD) equation was initiated to provide quality education for both
large and small counties, however, middle counties suffered under this system. With some
changes to the formula, Brevard County could anticipate some $2 billion. Representative
Allen replied to Mr. Morgan that Representative Ken Pruitt initiated a more accurate
reporting system to illustrate how lottery money is used in education. Representative Allen
concluded lastly on the budget that 2.8 billion was allocated to Agriculture and Natural
Resources that include: a project at the Port on water and sewage handling, a reuse water
valve from the mainland to the beaches and $9 billion used for transportation and
economic development for public safety. Mayor Randels commended his State Aide
Matthew Dupree for his extensive knowledge of the legislative process and his assistance
during the Legislative Days.
Representative Allen stated that there is a Constitutional requirement for class-size
amendment and said that Brevard County is in good standing in its teacher student ratio.
Representative Allen brought out the High Speed Rail issue. He expressed that the high-
speed rail concept in any country is a socialized, subsidized system that the State of
Florida would be committing to support it. He stated that there is an amendment to place
the High Speed Rail back on the ballot and he encourages citizens to review and forward
their response to the legislature. He encouraged citizens to support placing the High
Speed Rail system on a future Transportation Planning list and not in the Constitution.
Representative Allen stated that the goal to change how an amendment is introduced is
still under revision. Mayor Randels informed the audience that the Brevard Delegation
generally votes in block on issues that affect the County. Mayor Randels reported on the
favorable amount of funding for local programs that was gained through the Brevard
County delegation.

Mr. Treverton spoke on fireworks and stated that the Council desired to see the State
legislature enact fireworks legislation. Mayor Randels related that in Cape Canaveral
fireworks sales have been zoned to City's Industrial area and that sales facilities could not
be established within 1,000 feet of each other. He also related that illegal discharge incurs
a civil citation of$200. Mr. Leo Nicholas inquired about the Chuck E. Cheese exemption in
State law that has expanded to permit adult arcades games. Representative Allen replied
that overall the State is strong against gambling; however, the debate continues in its favor
in some areas of the State. Mayor Randels informed that the City adopted an ordinance
establishing adult arcades as games of chance, not skill, and therefore illegal in the City.
Mayor Pro Tem Hoog asked if the tax relief through an additional homestead exemption
would be included in the sales tax. Representative Allen replied that this tax amendment
would create an additional property tax exemption for a total of$50,000. He explained that
historically tax breaks have provided additional economic revenue. The Legislature would
need to present a bill to shift to the shared Sales Tax revenue to ensure that this
anticipated $2 billion in revenue provides sufficient funds for the municipalities without
burdening the property owner. He emphasized the need to shift tax burdens in order not to
increase the millage rate. He replied to Mayor Randels that a 5-year budget planning cycle
is forthcoming as well as a strategy to identify recurring revenue streams. Representative
Allen thanked the Council for their time.

The wording is identical to last year's contract except I've changed the figures and dates where appropriate. Major
Janet Dominicis will be the representative for our department. Please look over the documents and it you have

MEMO
TO: MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS, CITY MANAGER
FROM: Nancy Hanson, Director, Parks & Recreation Department -/f,
DATE: May 25, 2004
RE: Approval to remove Creosote poles from Manatee Sanctuary Park and
budget transfer to cover cost
Find attached a proposal from the contractor on site at Manatee Sanctuary Park
to remove approximately 910 linear feet of creosote poles which were donated
to the City. The poles have been used to delineate the entry way and parking lot, and,
with the new fence being erected, are no longer needed. Most are badly deteriorated and
are an eyesore.
The quoted cost of complete removal of the poles and regrading the perimeter of the parking lot
is $6,325.00. As this is not a budgeted item, Council approval and funding is needed.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.

OLD BUSINESS:
Approval of Meeting Minutes: April 14, 2004
Motion by Mr. Fredrickson, seconded by Ms. McNeely to approve the meeting minutes
of April 14, 2004 as written. Mr. Fredrickson complimented the Board Secretary for a
great job on the clarity of the minutes of a very complicated meeting. Vote on the motion
carried unanimously.
2. Discussion Re: Amending Chapter 94, Signs - Article I1I, Size Location and
Construction, Division 2 Types of Signs: Section (B)(1) - Establishing Rationale
on the Amount of Allowable Signage on Areas Under Development.
City Attorney, Anthony Garganese, gave an overview of the recommendations suggested
by City Council to change and establish rationale of the proposed ordinance regarding
temporary signs. Following a lengthy discussion the Board concluded recommended that
the proposed ordinance be updated to include the following: allow sub -contractors to
post a sign during construction; to allow a maximum of three signs per residential lot not
to exceed 6 sq. ft. per sign; all non-residential signs shall be allowed for 60 days once per
year per event; and to update the sign chart to include every type of sign in the new
ordinance and to add a column regarding time limitations.

Motion by Ms. McNeely, seconded by Mr. Fredrickson to direct the City Attorney to
make the changes to the proposed sign ordinance and send it directly to City Council.
Vote on the motion carried unanimously.
3. Presentation and Discussion Re: Special Exceptions.
Motion by Mr. Fredrickson, seconded by Ms. McNeely to add this item to the agenda.
Vote on the motion carried unanimously.
City Attorney, Anthony Garganese advised that he wrote a correspondence following
Monday night's Board of Adjustment meeting for a legal opinion regarding consideration
and approval or denial of applications for special exception under the City's zoning code.
He explained that a special exception is a legislatively established use of property, not
specifically permitted by right in a particular zoning classification, but which maybe
appropriate under certain conditions and safeguards. To be entitled to a special exception
an applicant must show that the proposed use is recognized as potentially appropriate
under the zoning classification; that the criteria for the exception would be met; and that
public interest would not be adversely affected. Therefore, a property owner requesting
an exception must show that it has met each of the criteria.. If these conditions have been
met, an application cannot be denied unless there is substantial and competent evidence
to show that the criteria has not been met, such as the requested exception is adverse to
the public interest. He further explained that a special exception is not equivalent to a
rezoning, but merely allows the board to exercise discretion whether it is reasonable
based on legislative criteria to permit a unique use within a particular zoning district. He
advised that the burden of proof in special exception proceedings is upon the applicant.
Mr. Garganese outlined that Planning & Zoning Board's role and Board of Adjustment's
role in considering special exceptions; the standard of reviews; and imposition of
conditions and safeguards on approved special exceptions. Mr. Garganese concluded that
special exception applications must be approved by the Board of Adjustment if the
applicant demonstrates by competent substantial evidence that the application complies
with the standard of review criteria for special exceptions. The Board of Adjustment may
expressly and clearly impose reasonable conditions and safeguards on a special exception
permit. However, a special exception application may be denied if the application fails to
comply with the standard of review criteria for special exceptions, is not in compliance
with the comprehensive plan, or is adverse to the public interest. Discussion followed.
Note: A copy of The City Attorney's correspondence shall be attached to these minutes
for future reference.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 10:00 p.m.
