MEMO

FROM: NANCY HANSON, DIRECTOR, PARKS & RECREATION
DATE: FEBRUARY 12, 1998
Re: 1998 LIFEGUARD CONTRACT
I have reviewed the draft of the Ocean Lifeguard contract for the 1998
season.
The increase of $435.00 is to cover the expense of having guards on duty
for a longer period of time in 1998, due in part to the school calendar.
Other than the increase in the fee, which was anticipated and
budgeted for, and the increase in the number of service days, the
contract is virtually the same as the 1997 contract, including the revision
council requested regarding the roving guard.
How will the sand transfer project affect the guard location?

Dear Mr. Boucher,
Attached is the "draft" Ocean Lifeguard contract for the 1998 lifeguard season for your
city.
As your contract shows, there is a slight increase for the lifeguard service this year. As
indicated, the contract reflects a 6% increase over last year. The lifeguard season is
longer this year because the last day of school is May 21, 1998, and we intend to begin
seven days per week service on May 22, 1998, (last year we started on June 2, 1997).
There are additional days at the end of the season due to the fact that Labor Day is on
September 7, 1998, (last year was September 1, 1997).
Please read over the draft contract and I or Jack Parker, Public Safety Director, will be
contacting you in the near future to set up a meeting. I would also like to take this
opportunity to advise you that our staff intends to present you with next year's
preliminary contract for fiscal year 1999 no later than March 1, 1998 so your staff can
more accurately budget for lifeguard expenses.
Sincerely,

Subject: Amendments To Update Technical Codes To Latest State of Florida Mandates
The proposed amendments to Chapter 82 of the City Code of Ordinances are for the
purposes of adoption of the latest edition of state mandated technical codes and to update
city requirements to be equal to, or more stringent than, the State of Florida requirements.
The amendments to the Building Code, Plumbing Code and Mechanical Code relate to
State mandated licensing requirements for building department personnel as required by
Chapter 468 of the Florida Statutes.
The amendments to the Solar Energy Code update the reference to the proper code
section of the building code relating to wind loading.
The amendments to the Swimming Pool Code are to adopt the latest edition.
The amendments to the Housing Code are to adopt the latest edition.
The amendments to the Threshold Building section are to defer to State Law as shown in
Florida Statute Chapter 553.
These amendments are normally required on a three year cycle as the technical codes are
revised, reprinted and approved by the State of Florida, Department of Community
Affairs, Board of Building Codes and Standards every three years.

'SAFETY for LIFE and PROPERTY'
May 2, 1997
Dear Building Official:
As authorized by Section 553.73, Florida Statutes (F.S.), the Florida Board of Building
Codes and Standards (the Board) amended Rule 9B-3.047, State Minimum Building Codes, and
adopted the most current editions of the model codes effective April 28, 1997. Enclosed for your
information is a copy of the final rule. In summary, the new amendments to the rule adopt by
reference: the 1997 edition of the Standard Building Code, the Standard Mechanical Code, and
the Standard Gas Code but not the Standard Plumbing Code; and the 1996 edition of the EPCOT
Code. The 1994 Dade South Florida Building Code is still current. A new edition is expected to
be adopted by rule this summer.
Early this year, the Board initiated a proposed rule amendment to Rule 9B-3.048, State
Plumbing Code, to update the 1994 edition of the Standard Plumbing Code (SPC) to the 1997
Standard Plumbing Code/International Plumbing Code (IPC). The Board held two workshops in
January 27, and March 10, 1997 to obtain public comment on the rule development. At the
workshops, attendees expressed concerns regarding requirements in the IPC which were not
applicable to Florida or were considered too excessive. Their major issues of concern were as
follows: (1) the IPC's requirements for protection of pipes from freezing were more applicable to
cold climates than to warm climates such as found in Florida, (2) the IPC requirement that relief
lines for water heaters be designed for gravity flow will limit installation of waters to locations
only next to outside walls of a building, and (3) the IPC requirement that hot water be available in
all buildings that have employees will impact 70% of the new commercial buildings in the state
and is more applicable to cold climates that to warm climates such as in Florida. Based on these
concerns and the fact that the Board has no authority to alter the model code when it adopts
updates to the State Plumbing Code, the Board decided to stay with the 1994 SPC until the
International Code Council Inc. (ICC) membership revises the IPC so that it more applicable to
Florida's environment.
The Board has worked diligently for a timely adoption of the codes. Section 553.73(1)
F.S. requires each local government and state agency with building construction regulation
responsibilities to adopt one of the state approved editions of the model codes. The Board
encourages you to update your codes quickly so that the standards throughout the state are
consistent and contractors and designers are in compliance with state law.

The Board has also approved errata sheets to the Wood Frame Construction Manual
(WFCM) after determining they are editorial in nature. The Manual together with the errata
sheets can be used as an alternative method for achieving compliance with Section 1606, Wind
Load, of the Standard Building Code (SBC).
Thank you for your cooperation and should you need more information regarding this
rule, please feel free to contact the Board's staff in the Building Codes and Standards Office at

TO: Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: G. J. "Whitey" Moran, CBO
Building Official
SUBJECT: Revisions Adopted In 1997 Editions Of The Standard Codes
The "Standard Codes" as promulgated by the Southern Building Code Congress
International, Inc. is a nationally recognized minimum prescriptive construction code
package that is accepted by the State of Florida.
The State of Florida mandates by statute the adoption of a construction code by all
governmental entities.
The State of Florida allows the adoption of the "Standard Codes" as meeting that
requirement and allows the adoption of the "Epcot Code" (Disney) and the "South
Florida Building Code" (Dade & Broward Counties).
The State of Florida is presently reviewing, by committee, the approval of a "One Code"
system for the entire state.
The United States, at present, has three major code organizations that are used in various
portions of the country, they are: the Southern Building Code Congress International.
Inc.(SBCCI), the Building Officials and Code Administrators International, Inc.(BOCA)
and the International Conference of Building Officials (ICBG).
The three organizations are presently working toward the merging of all code officials
under one international organization and the publication of one code, to be named the
"International Code" that will include the "International Building Code", the
"International Plumbing Code", etc; and that will be recognized and adopted by all the
states.
The promulgation of this code is well under way and is expected to be accomplished by
the year "2000".

4. Discussion and Motion to Recommend Approval to Amend Chapter 34,
Section 34-97, Duties and Responsibilities for Maintenance, by Amending
the Requirements for the Screening and Fencing of Dumpster Areas.
Mr. Moran advised that City Council had requested that staff prepare a proposed
ordinance that would provide dumpster screening for all four sides of the
dumpster. He explained that USA Waste had provided specifications which
would retrofit existing dumpster locations and the proposed ordinance was
tailored around the specifications provided by USA Waste.
Discussion was held regarding cost for USA Waste to have their driver close the
gate after emptying the dumpster. Mr. Nicholas advised that the VFW was
quoted a price of $3.00 from USA Waste each time their driver closed the
dumpster gate. Mayor Randels advised that USA Waste was now considering
not charging customers for this added service. Mr. Russell noted that their was
no mention in the proposed ordinance that closing the gate would be the
responsibility of USA Waste.
After brief discussion, the Board directed staff to recommend that City Council
move forward with the ordinance amendment.
Mr. Nicholas left the meeting at this time.

He advised that the proposed structure placement was not visible from adjoining
roadways and therefore, would not require approval from the Community
Appearance Board. He noted that city staff and the city engineering firm
recommended approval of the site plan.
Ms. Lisa Lombardi, P.E., project engineer, advised that the proposed canopy was
not shown on the original approved site plan. She further advised that the
canopy would be constructed over existing paved area and therefore, no permit
would be required from the St. Johns River Water Management District.
Brief discussion was held regarding the jamount charged by the city engineering
firm to review the submitted site plan.
Motion by Mr. Russell, seconded by Ms. McNeely to approve the site plan for a
canopy addition to Marshall Manufacturing as presented. Vote on the motion
carried unanimously.
2. Discussion and Motion to Recommend Approval to Amend Chapter 110,
Section 110-567 (b), Relative Tree Point Values for Landscaping
Purposes.
Mr. Moran advised that City Council had requested staff to visit existing tree size
diameter at breast height (dbh) requirements that appeared to be less than
desirable. Staff was instructed to increase required tree size without changing
any other code requirements. During this research, staff noted a discrepancy in
the definition of (dbh) relating to "development grade". It was not defined
elsewhere in the code whereas the term "finish grade" appeared. Therefore, staff
recommended changing the term to "finish grade" to alleviate any conflicts.
Discussion was held regarding different kinds of palm trees, both native and
nonnative. After discussion, the Board decided to recommend deleting (5) points
for nonnative palms from the proposed ordinance. The Board members were of
the opinion that points should not be awarded for nonnative species.
Motion by Mr. Nicholas, seconded by Mr. Fredrickson to recommend approval of
the proposed ordinance amending tree point values for landscaping with the
deletion of (5) points for nonnative palms. Vote on the motion carried
unanimously.
§ 110-567 CAPE CANAVERAL CODE
(4) Parking areas in the C-1 and b1-1 districts
and parking areas in the R-3 districts that

points planted every 35 feet with at least
ten tree values on a minimum 50 -foot C-1
lot and 15 tree values on the minimum 75 -
foot R-3 lot.
(5) No trees shall be planted that will obstruct
visibility at intersections or points of in-
gress and egress to streets. See section 110-
469. The perimeter footage defined in sec-
tion 110-469 and ingress and egress shall
not be used to calculate landscaping of pe-
rimeters.
(6) Existing trees in proposed internal parking
areas as listed under subsection (b) of this
section shall not be removed if over three

ing is in an area subjected to salt air, the B (bar-
rier island) designation shall be present, which
meets the state requirement to tolerate xeric con-
ditions. Otherwise, documentation must be pre-
sented as provided in section 110-566(d).

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND
MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BENNETT C. BOUCHER
CITY MANAGER
SUJBJECT: DUMPSTER SCREEN SPECIFICATIONS
USA Waste has provided information on the number of dumpsters in the city and the additional
service charge for opening and closing a dumpster gate (see attached USA Waste letter).
If you review the existing code section 34-97(b)(2), it does not specifically state that screening is
required on (3) sides. It has been a staff interpretation over the years and, thus, the ordinance
should have specific language outlining requirements we decide upon.
If front gates are to be required, should this standard apply to all dumpsters or only those that can
be seen from the public right-of-way? In addition to the cost of the pick-up, there would be the
cost of installing a gate and future maintenance by a property owner. Would this apply
retroactively?
I believe we can brainstorm a solution that is suitable to the residents and the city.

Re: Dumpster Enclosures
Dear Bennett:
Regarding the request by your office concerning the statics and
data concerning dumpster enclosures please review the
following:
Number of commercial customers in Cape Canaveral: 182
Number of dumpsters in Cape Canaveral: 258
Number of customers that don't have enclosures: 47
Customers that will need rebuilt enclosures: 15
Balance of customers have adequate enclosures or containers are
not visible from the road.
The size of the enclosures depends on the size of the dumpster.
The size of the enclosure for customers with 2,3 or 4 cubic
yard containers is 12' wide, 8'deep and 6' in height. Customers
with 6 or 8 cubic yard containers should adhere to the width
and height but depth should be extended from 8' to 10'.
It is understood that if gates are to be a part of the
enclosure, and USA Waste Services is required to open and close
the dates, the additional workload would be compensated at
$2.25 per pick up
USA Waste Services in cooperation with, and for the
beautification of the City of Cape Canaveral, would explore
working with our customers amortizing any financial impact they
would incur, The maximum pay back period would be 12 months.
Loans to customers would be for the walls, gates and hardware
of the enclosure. Any preparation of the ground would be the
responsibility of the customer.
Cost of each enclosure is a variable, depending on the extent
of work required to meet city code. If you have any further
questions regarding this issue, please contact me.

Richard Dingess

MEMORANDUM:
TO: Bennett Boucher, City Manager
Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Whitey Moran, Building Official
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments To Chapter 94, Sign Code
In the City Council meeting held on February 17, 1998, Council opted to defer voting on
the amendments to the sign codes that were prepared by staff and recommended for
approval by the Planning & Zoning Board.
The consensus of Council was that the sign code needed review and possible major
revisions to address possible reductions in both size and height, prohibitions for neon and
artwork and reduction in the number of signs allowed.
All of the above concerns can be addressed by staff with direction from the City Manager
and Council and prepared for consideration in the near future.
The amendments that are being proposed at the present time are more of a housekeeping
and clarification nature than a change in heights, sizes and numbers although the
proposed amendments will make future changes to heights, sizes and numbers much
easier to accomplish.
Staff requests that Council reconsider its position and approve the proposed amendments
that will, at the very least, simplify code enforcement relating to signs and as soon as
possible advise staff as to the direction the Council wishes to take in future amendments
to the Code.

ment is to be made, but in no event, except for the
thickness of wall signs, shall a sign of any kind
project over public property or public rights-of-
way, whether affixed to a building or otherwise.
The height of signs shall be measured from grade
level at the edge of the street paving and shall
