[City Seal] City of Cape Canaveral City Council Agenda Form City Council Meeting Date: 1/17/2017 PRESENTATIONS/INTERVIEWS Subject: Recognition of Tim Carlisle for bravery and quick action during an apartment fire on November 7, 2016 at 112 Buchanan Avenue. Department: Public Works Services/Community Engagement Summary At approximately 7:45 am on Monday, November 7, 2016, Public Works Services Infrastructure Maintenance Supervisor Tim Carlisle was conducting street sign locates on the West corner of Center Street and SR Al A. He recognized the smell of "something electrical burning" and immediately scanned the surroundings for a source. Tim witnessed white smoke from the apartments at the end of Buchanan Avenue. He safely crossed SR A 1 A at the light while dialing 911 to report a fire. As he approached the North side of the building, Tim reported a fire at 112 Buchanan Avenue to a Canaveral Fire Rescue dispatcher who instructed him not to enter the unit and to wait for the fire rescue team. However,he witnessed homeowner Georgia Peach frantically entering/exiting the already engulfed unit. He hopped the fence and was successful in removing her from the burning unit. He escorted her to a seat a safe distance away and remained with her until Canaveral Fire Rescue arrived. She was attended to and transported to Cape Canaveral Hospital. The City was informed that the fire was caused by the ignition of an oxygen tank due to a lit cigarette. Thanks to Tim's quick action, he most likely saved Ms. Peach from entering the burning unit one too many times. His action put a stranger's life before his own,and for that the City of Cape Canaveral recognizes and thanks Tim Carlisle!

Garganese, City Attorney City of Cape Canaveral Ordinance No.01-2017 Page 4 of 4 City of Cape Canaveral [City Seal] City Council Agenda Form City Council Meeting Date: 1/17/2017 Item No. 3 Subject: Ordinance No. 02-2017; amending Appendix B of the City Code,related to assessment of Building Permit fees; providing for the repeal of prior inconsistent ordinances and resolutions; incorporation into the Code; severability and an effective date, second reading. Department: Community Development Summary: Currently, City Code stipulates Building Permit Fees will be calculated solely upon Building Valuation Data published by the International Code Council(ICC), which is an average construction cost per square foot. These values are provided by construction type and are on a National level. It is Staff's experience this approach consistently underestimates the value of proposed construction. As Building Permit Fees are based on the value of construction, the result is a reduction of fees collected. The Proposed Ordinance would provide the Building Official (BO) with a second methodology for calculation of Building Permit Fees. This approach would allow for calculation of fees based upon the value of the proposed project as documented by a contract between property owner and contractor. This would provide for a true reflection of local building costs and values. For example, using the current ICC valuation model, the proposed Twistee Treat project on Astronaut Boulevard generated $1,091 in Building Permit Fees. The amount is reached by multiplying the square footage of the building (583 sq. ft.) by $131.99 per square foot (ICC value for this type of a restaurant). In comparison, the proposed contract approach ($150,000) would result fees of$1,624, or 48 percent more revenue. One of the recent single-family homes built in the City paid $2,145 in permit fees. Under the new calculation, the same home would have paid $2,714, an increase of 26 percent. The following local communities were contacted to determine various methods used for calculating fees: • Titusville calculates its fees based upon actual construction cost provided by the applicant as evidenced by a valid contract or professionally certified construction cost estimate. If,in the opinion of the BO,the value is underestimated he/she can set the value of construction using the latest data published by ICC. • Cocoa Beach values new construction from data published by ICC. All other permits/ values are based off the actual contract price. Building Permit Fees are a type of user fee paid to the City when the Building Depaitinent's services are required. Building Permits are required for,among other things, construction of new buildings, additions or remodeling of existing structures and installation of fences and signs. Currently, annual fees generated by this revenue source do not cover the cost of Department personnel. The City's 2016/17 Budget includes revenue of $95,000 for Building Permit Fees. This only covers 50% of the cost to operate the Building Department. As a result, the General Fund (taxpayers) underwrites the cost of providing this service. The attached Proposed Ordinance No. 02-2017 would shift the cost of providing Building Department services to actual users of the services.

Department: Culture & Leisure Services Summary: Yearly, coastal communities in Florida experience an increase in homelessness and individuals attempting to habitate or camp on public property during winter months. The City is a tourist destination with warm weather/open beaches making it especially attractive. Although Staff and Brevard Co ty Sheriff's Office (BCSO) patrol on a regular basis to prevent this activity, instances of individuals sleeping overnight on City property were recently reported/addressed. It was noted by the City Attorney's Office (CAO) that cases challenging ordinances prohibiting sleeping and camping on public property are continuing to emerge and such decisions are garnering national interest. CAO advised that the City Code be amended to clarify and protect the constitutional rights of individuals sleeping and camping on public property. The suggested amendment to the Ordinance clarifies when a person may and may not be arrested or otherwise penalized for violation of the anti-camping and sleeping Ordinance, establishes a procedure for vacating a camping individual from public property, and delineates protocols for removal/disposal of personal property from public property once an individual has been arrested/admitted into a homeless shelter or while camping on public property. The amendment makes violation of this Ordinance a Class I citation, enforceable by means including, but not limited to: a summons; a notice to appear in the county or circuit court; an est; an action before the special magistrate/code enforcement board or a civil action for injunctive relief.

Department: Community Development Summary: On October 13, 2016, a tree removal application was submitted to Staff for removal of two (2) Live Oak Trees by Benzinger Construction in order to build two townhouses located at 110 & 112 Ocean Garden Lane, Cape Canaveral (Attachment 1). On October 25, 2016, the City Arborist conducted a site inspection and verified the two(2) Live Oak Trees proposed for removal are Specimen Trees. Tree #1 - The City Arborist submitted a Tree Hazard Evaluation Form (Attachment 2). Tree number (1) has a diameter at breast height (dbh) of twenty-five (25) inches, is approximately thirty-five (35) feet in height and has a thirty (30) foot canopy spread. The Arborist's report indicated, at the time of inspection, the tree was in good health. Tree #2 - The City Arborist submitted a Tree Hazard Evaluation Form (Attachment 3). Tree number two (2)has a diameter at breast height (dbh) of twenty-four (24)inches, is approximately thirty (30) feet in height and has a twenty-five (25) foot canopy spread. The Arborist's report indicated, at the time of inspection, the tree was in good health. Sec. 102-41(b) of the City's Code indicates that: "Notwithstanding any other provision of this division, specimen trees shall not be removed except for extraordinary circumstances and hardships and only by final permit approved by the city council. As a condition of removal of any specimen tree, the city council shall have the right to require that replacement trees be planted or a contribution to the tree bank be made [...]" As indicated by the attached Site Plan/Survey (Attachment 4), the two Specimen Trees are located in the footprint of the proposed townhomes, which necessitates their removal.Therefore, mitigation is required per Sec. 102-41(b). Staff recommends City Council authorize removal of the Specimen Trees, with the required mitigation completed by the time of issuance of Certificate of Occupancy (C.O.) for the proposed townhomes. Staff recommends removal of the trees be mitigated at a ratio of one-to- one which can be in the form of a contribution to the City's Tree Bank or planting of replacement trees.
