WHEREAS, Epilepsy, also known as Seizure Disorder, has afflicted mankind since the dawn of
our species and has been recognized since the earliest medical writings; and
WHEREAS, as long ago as 400 B.C., Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, repudiated ancient
beliefs that Epilepsy was a visitation from the gods and sacred or that it was a curse from the gods that
people afflicted with this disorder held prophetic powers. Hippocrates believed that Epilepsy was a brain
disorder; and
WHEREAS, a seizure is a sudden, brief attach of altered consciousness, motor activity or sensory
phenomena. It is a sign that certain brain cells (neurons) are discharging an excessive amount of electrical
impulses; and
WHEREAS Epilepsy can be caused by injury to the brain, lack of oxygen at birth, brain tumor,
infection and brain hemorrhage. In sixty percent of the cases, the cause if unknown; and
WHEREAS, Epilepsy can affect anyone, at any age and at any time; and
WHEREAS, more than two million Americans are afflicted with some type of Epilepsy. Of this
number, 150, 000 are Florida residents; and
WHEREAS, with the administration of anticonvulsant drugs, two thirds (66.66%) of those
afflicted with Epilepsy are drug controlled; and
WHEREAS, the stigma associated with this disorder is sometimes worse than the disorder itself
and
WHEREAS, people who have Epilepsy make reliable and conscientious workers in job
performance, and productivity, safety, cooperation and attendance; and
WHEREAS, studies carried out in the United States over the past thirty years have indicated that
of all disabilities, Epilepsy poses the greatest barrier to employment with unemployment rates estimated
to fall between twenty and twenty-five percent; and
WHEREAS, Epilepsy should not be a barrier to success. In addition to the normal requirements
for success, a person who has Epilepsy needs a supportive environment and employers who are willing to
give them an opportunity to become productive citizens.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Rocky Randels, Mayor of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, do
hereby declare the month of November as
NATIONAL EPILEPSY A RARENESS MONTH
WHEREAS, our state's future depends on protection of public lands and water; and
WHEREAS, management of freshwater and coastal fisheries and wildlife is vital; and
WHEREAS, it is essential to continue using revenue bonds to finance the purchase and
improvement of public land for recreation and wildlife and water resource conservation; and
WHEREAS, it is essential to maintain conservation and recreation lands for their natural
resources and benefits; and
WHEREAS, amendment five, to the Florida Constitution will create a single agency to
administer the protection of public lands, water and wildlife; and
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Rocky Randels, Mayor, and Council Members of the City of
Cape Canaveral, Brevard County, Florida, do hereby endorse passage of
Amendment Five, Conservation of Natural Resources
And
Creation of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission
and encourage all citizens, city government officials and employees to support passage of

• Remar Cleaning $24,960
During the budget process, we budgeted $6,000 for janitorial services based on a
written quote we had received from a local firm.
Currently Street Department employees provide janitorial services at an annual cost
of $ 12,620.

Our city employees can do the service at a lower cost, but the quality of their work
needs to improve and they must adhere to the cleaning schedule. Also of note,
approximately 1,092 of work hours are tied up with this task.
I have talked to all the of the firms that submitted bids and explained our current
budget constraints and all indicated that if the city were to revise and re -bid they all

At this point in time, I am recommending that the city council reject all bids.

ninety (90) day introductory period, the employee will be evaluated
at the end of the introductory period and again at the time of his/her
annual review date.
Example Scenarios
Anniversary Date:
Currently, an employee hired October 1, 1998 (hypothetically) would complete the
probationary period April 1, 1999. At that time, a review is performed without pay
increase consideration and the employee's annual review date is set for one year later.
Therefore, requiring that an employee must work for an initial 18 -months before
becoming eligible for a merit pay increase.
Proposed, an employee hired on October 1, 1998 (hypothetically) would complete the
probationary period April 1, 1999. (no change proposed) At that time, a review is
performed without pay increase consideration and the employee's annual review date is
set for six months later to coincide with the employee's anniversary date. Therefore,
providing that an employee must work for an initial 12 -months before becoming eligible
for a merit pay increase.
Holiday Pay:
Currently, the Recreation Department is open 7 -days per week, excluding Christmas
Day only. The vast majority of employees are part-time. Hypothetical example:
Independence Day was Saturday, July 4, 1998. The City observed Friday, July 3, 1998 as
the holiday. Therefore, recreational employees required to work on Friday, July 3 were
compensated double for working the holiday. Whereas, the employees who worked the
actual holiday, Saturday, July 4, 1998 were compensated only straight time.
Proposed, Hypothetical example: Independence Day was Saturday, July 4, 1998. The
City observed Friday, July 3, 1998 as the holiday. Recreation employees required to work
on Friday, July 3 will be compensated straight time for the city -observed holiday when
the actual holiday falls on a weekend. Whereas, the employees who work the actual
holiday, Saturday, July 4, 1998 will be compensated double time.

3.10 Workplace Violence Prevention
the City is committed to preventing workplace violence and to maintaining a safe work environment. Given
the increasing violence in society in general, the City has adopted the following guidelines to deal with
intimidation, harassment, or other threats of (or actual) violence that may occur during business hours or
on its premises.
All employees, including supervisors and temporary employees, should be treated with courtesy and respect
at all times. Employees are expected to refrain from fighting, "horseplay," or other conduct that may be
dangerous to others. Firearms, weapons, and other dangerous or hazardous devices or substances are
prohibited from the premises of the City without proper authorization.
Conduct that threatens, intimidates, or coerces another employee, a customer, or a member of the public at
any time, including off-duty periods, will not be tolerated. This prohibition includes all acts of harassment,
including harassment that is based on an individual's sex, race, age, or any characteristic protected by
federal, state, or local law.
All threats of (or actual) violence, both direct and indirect, should be reported as soon as possible to your
immediate supervisor or any other member of management. This includes threats by employees, as well as
threats by customers, vendors, solicitors, or other members of the public. When reporting a threat of
violence, you should be as specific and detailed as possible.
All suspicious individuals or activities should also be reported as soon as possible to a supervisor. Do not
place yourself in peril. If you see or hear a commotion or disturbance near your work station, do not try to
intercede or see what is happening.
the City will promptly and thoroughly investigate all reports of threats of (or actual) violence and of
suspicious ndividuals or activities. The identity of the individual making a report will be protected as much
as is practical. In order to maintain workplace safety and the integrity of its investigation, the City may
suspend employees, either with or without pay, pending investigation.
Anyone determined to be responsible for threats of (or actual) violence or other conduct that is in violation
of these guidelines will be subject to prompt disciplinary action up to and including termination of
employment.
the City encourages employees to bring their disputes or differences with other employees to the attention of
their supervisors or the Human Resources Director before the situation escalates into potential violence. the
City is eager to assist in the resolution of employee disputes, and will not discipline employees for raising
such concerns.

MEMO: 10-8-98
TO: KEN GRINSTEAD, ACTING BUILDING OFFICIAL
FROM: GREG MULLINS, CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER
SUBJECT: DEFINITION OF KITCHEN FACILITY PER HOTEL/MOTEL
ORDINANCE
Ir_l regard to the question that arose from our current zoning definition, Chapter 110
Zoning, Section 110-1 Definitions, states that a hotel/motel only allows a maximum of
25% of the rooms to be efficiency units or contain kitchen facilities per building, what
classifies as a kitchen facility?
In talking with the Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of
Hotel and Restaurants, they do not classify a kitchen facility as a small sink and a
microwave oven within each guestroom as a kitchen facility, only if it has an open heat
producing device such as a cooking range/oven which produces heat latent vapors.
Hopefully this has answered the question of
hotel/motel as defined in our local ordinance.

Hotel, motel, motor hotel, motor lodge, tourist court, motor court: For the purposes of land use
classifications and to interpret the zoning regulations, the terms hotel, motel, motor hotel, motor
lodge, tourist court or motor court are to be considered synonymous and will mean a building or
group of buildings which will comply with the following definitions:
These facilities furnish temporary lodging to the public at large for pay, primarily to transient travelers;
they are subject to the regulations of the Division of Hotels and Restaurants of the Department of
Business Regulation, State of Florida; they have a desk operation allowing overnight lodging with
daily rates; they provide daily maid service; they are required to have an occupational license as hotel -
motel; they furnish on a daily basis, in -room amenities such as soap, fresh towels, etc.; they require all
their guests to sign in on a "guest register" kept by the operator; the signage on the premises clearly
shows its public nature as a hotel -motel. Hotels, motels, etc., and hotel -motel units are not subject to a
"time-sharing plan," as defined in these definitions.
Neither the size or configuration of the individual hotel -motel units, nor the type of ownership (except
for time-sharing units) shall determine its classification for land use and zoning purposes. A building
that is considered a hotel/motel may not have "dual usage" within the same building as multi -family as
described in section 2-2 of these definitions.
A motel or hotel unit shall not have separate electric or water meters for any of the separate sleeping,
living or rental units provided for transient facilities.
No certificate of occupancy shall be issued for a facility described herein in which the individual units
shall be owned as condominium or otherwise until documents are recorded in the Public Records of
Volusia County prohibiting the use of the individual units as separate residences

From: David J. Sargeant, Fire Chief c.q's"
Date: 08 October 1998
Sub): QUARTERLY REPORT
Once again the last three months have been extremely eventful. We answered 393 calls for
emergency assistance, 17 were providing mutual aid to surrounding communities, 3526 hours of
Volunteer service were used to help accomplish these tasks. Several of these calls involved numerous
hours of operation including two tornados that touched down in our area. The first tornado did
minor damage to Mid Florida Freezers. The second caused extensive wide spread damage to the City
and the Port. The total damage estimate exceeded one million dollars. Also, during this tornado our
new station sustained in excess of $7500.00 in damages.
It is with great pleasure that I can report several financial developments that benefit all parties.
The first was the donation of $17,500 for a pick-up truck. Once again this was donated by Mr.
William Bennix. Second, we receive a matching grant from Prudential for another automatic external
defibrillator. Finally, we received confirmation that the County will reimburse us partially for
running ALS. The total amount of reimbursement should be approximately $50,000. This money
will be refunded to the City and the Port as soon as we receive it.
Although, we have not been hit by any tropical forces directly, we have felt the side effects
and have been on constant guard with this extremely active season. All of us should remain alert until
this season is finally put to rest.
Again, let me thank you for your continued support and cooperation and as always, if you
have an comments, suggestions, or questions feel free to call me.

RECREATION DEPARTMENT QUARTERLY REPORT
OCTOBER 1998
We finished our Summer Recreation activities on July 31' with
the final free movie of the series. I have attached a report which details
all of the classes we offered, number of participants and the amount of
money collected as well as the expenses incurred for the classes.
The semi-annual Fishing Contest Co-sponsored by the Fishing and
Diving Center was held on Saturday, September 19'b at Freddie Patrick
Park. This event is usually held in November but was moved to
September to avoid a scheduling conflict with another tournament. I
have attached a special report detailing the contest. Sixty-seven children,
ages 646 participated in the event.
We have a new employee in the Recreation Department. Jaime
Bierwangen was hired as a Recreation Leader to work at the Youth
Center. She has established a very good rapport with the kids using the
Center. Jaime will assume the after school hours, 3-6:30 p.m. and
Saturdays from noon -5: 00 p.m. She is also cross training so she can fill
in if one of the Recreation Aides has an emergency and cannot work on a
scheduled shift at the Recreation Center.
Attendance at the Youth Center continues to decline despite the
addition of the Air Hockey Game and special tournaments that Coach set
up to try to bolster attendance during the summer, i.e. pool, ping-pong,
chess, checkers, etc. Attendance for July 273, August,174 and
September, 97.
With sadness, I have accepted the resignation of Jack "Coach" Schryer.
Jack has been with us for several years and was a key player in setting up,
and developing some rules and guidelines for the operation of the Youth
Center.
I plan to apply for a FRDAP Grant (Florida Recreation Development
Assistance Program) and ask for a waiver of retroactivity for the
development of Patriots Park. We couldn't apply in this grant period as
we do not yet own the property. Kohn Bennett has contacted Ms.
Mosher regarding the purchase of the property but no contract is
pending at this time. The City has a $50,00 FRDAP Grant for the
purchase of the property.
Upcoming events include the Recreation Department's 23'
Anniversary Racquetball Tournament on October 23, 24 and 25'b.
Terror on Taylor Avenue will be held on Wednesday, October 28'x. It is
being expanded this year, as the Sheriffs Department employees will be
making a haunted house in the assembly room at the Recreation Center.
This year's guided tour will begin at the "haunted house" and continue
outside through the "haunted forest". The advertised hours are from
6:30 to 8:30 p.m., however, we plan to begin the tours when it becomes
dark enough to be scary and continue until everyone in line has an
opportunity to take the tour.
The Seniors Health Fair will be held at the Recreation Center on
Saturday, November 11'b from 9 a.m. till 12 noon. This is a new event and
hopefully will be successful enough to he continued on a yearly basis.
The Visiting Nurses Association will be giving flu and pneumonia
injections, Pharmacist Kathy Petsos will conduct a medication check up
for participants, the CCVFD will be giving free blood pressure checks
and taking sign ups for seniors CPR classes. Health First will have
information on their Lifeline program and Ernie Perry will distribute
the Vial of Life and information on senior services that are available to
our citizens. Last, but certainly not least, we will offer free refreshments
to all those in attendance.
I have entered the City Float (Ship) in the Cocoa Beach Christmas
Parade on Saturday, December 12', which is the same day as the
Reindeer Run. The parade will begin at 2:00 p.m.; I will give you
instructions on where and when to meet as soon as I am notified. You
are welcome to invite your family members to join you on the float.
The Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony will be held on December 13'b at
the Library beginning at 7:00 p.m. Cape View Elementary School
Rocket Chorus and the Dickens Carolers will perform traditional
holiday music and Santa will make an appearance. A permanent tree
will he placed, and decorated, in the circle in front of the Library.
Refreshments will beserved.
