Cape Canaveral Vision Statement
We envision: A bikeable and walkable Cape Canaveral that retains and enhances its welcoming
residential feel, characterized by low-rise buildings. This residential and business friendly
atmosphere is a liveable, attractive, safe, inclusive and sustainable coastal community that
embraces the oceanside and riverside as the main amenities, and supports and promotes local
tourism, culture, recreation, commerce, municipal civic interests and education.
We envision: A City network of “complete streets” with a native-landscaped and tree-lined median
with traffic calming elements and dark-sky street lighting. “Complete street” amenities include
bicycle facilities, covered transit stops, and safe pedestrian crossings that invite pedestrians and
bicyclists to access the beach, river, local neighborhoods and adjacent communities. Our improved
“complete streets” will allow us to travel calmly to intimate waterfront destinations and a walk-
able uptown core. Multi-use paths lined with shade trees should be wide enough for bikes and
pedestrians and lighted so anyone can walk or bicycle safely anywhere in town, day or night.
We envision: Welcoming community entrance features that create a sense of arrival and unique
community identity as The Space Between. The “uptown” and other areas will contain an
architecturally rich and unique mix of uses, with wide tree shaded sidewalks and umbrella covered
café tables at restaurants and bistros where friends gather, interact, and enjoy drinks and dinner.
We envision: An engaged and compassionate community that; removes or transforms blighted
and unfinished buildings into attractive structures, offers city-wide green spaces, provides a pet-
friendly park with ample shade, acts progressively but deliberately and actively recruits and
supports businesses that enhance economic viability and serve our residents and visitors with
goodwill.
We envision: Open shorelines and rivers accessible to the public including amenities that take
advantage of the water, such as limited and quaint water-view establishments and intimate public
gathering and entertainment places that may include pavilions, gazebos, or a performance stage.

Hiring Trends
Stigma of Criminal Record Fades as U.S. Employers Get Desperate
As U.S. unemployment falls to the lowest level in a decade, driving it below what Federal Reserve
officials consider is the lowest full employment rate, people with criminal records are getting second
looks by employers trying to fill vacancies that currently stand at a near-record 5.7 million.
Many employers report that they feel forced to consider applicants with “seriously flawed
applications”. Industries reporting the greatest manpower pressure include:
All building trades, carpentry/plumbing/electrical etc.
Manufacturing
Fast food
Hospitality
Maintenance
Non-certified security
While the City is aware of the acute shortages in qualified candidates with “trades” experience and/or
credentials and also believes in “second changes”, HR continues to require post offer of employment
background screening. Candidates who honestly disclose past convictions are not “automatically
eliminated”. Factors such as nature of the crime, age of candidate when crime was committed and
recidivism are taken into consideration. The City remains steadfast in maintaining the highest standards
in hiring and will not consider employing individuals with any history of violence, fraud, theft or sexual
misconduct.
Health Care Trends
New study says GOP Healthcare bill (AHCA) would lead to the loss of jobs. (Forbes, Time,
Reuters, The Atlantic, Money Magazine, Newsweek, Miami New Times, International Business Times)
Commonwealth Fund and George Washington University examined the economic impact of the
American Health Care Act (AHCA). Knowing that Healthcare comprises approximately 1/6th of the
U.S. economy, understanding the long range impact of healthcare legislation is a must.
From the report:
"AHCA initially raises the federal deficit when taxes are repealed, leading to 864,000 more jobs in
2018. In later years, reductions in support for health insurance cause negative economic effects.
By 2026, 924,000 jobs would be lost, gross state products would be $93 billion lower and business
output would be $148 billion less. About three-quarters of jobs lost (725,000) would be in the health
care sector."
“Job losses would vary by state, with New York, Pennsylvania and Florida taking the biggest hits”.
States with greater numbers of “seniors” are impacted the most negatively.
What’s driving the projected job losses and economic downturn?
The number of people working in healthcare related industries has steadily increased as baby
boomers aged and the rate of people without health insurance dropped. Since the passage of the
Affordable Care Act, more people have been seeking healthcare services and healthcare
providers boosted employment and built facilities in order to meet the demand.
Under AHCA, the healthcare sector would lose 24,000 jobs in 2018 and see job losses in excess
of 725,000 by 2026, reversing the hiring trends of the past 7 years.
Lower employment and greater out of pocket health care costs means fewer people have
disposable income to spend on other goods and services. The trickle-down effect results in a
drag on overall economic output.
“It is likely the business cycle will slow down," the report said. Combined with significant
increases in the number of people without health insurance, a period of economic and medical
hardship would exaggerate both the highs and lows of the business cycle."
Forbes business analyst team reports the following:
“A repeal of the Affordable Care Act could cost more than 2.5 million jobs, many from the
nation’s hospitals and health systems.”
ACA’s subsidies have turned patients who couldn’t afford care into paying customers, allowing
hospitals to hire more nurses, medical technicians, doctors and other caregivers to treat millions
of newly insured Americans.
Job losses would occur in all 50 U.S. states and rise to losses of “nearly 3 million positions in
healthcare and other sectors.” by the year 2021.
Senate Republican leadership is promising a vote by the end of next week on the health care bill yet to
be disclosed or reviewed by Congressional Budget Office. Renewal rates for 2017/18 Group Health
Plans are in a holding pattern with providers advising Employers to “brace for price sensitivity”.
Florida Blue filed its proposed rates for the Affordable Care Act marketplace Wednesday. Company
officials warn that this week’s proposed rates could increase by an additional 20 percent if the federal
government stops funding the cost sharing measures that are included in the Affordable Care Act. 70%
of Florida ACA participants receive income based cost sharing assistance under ACA.
HR is recruiting and conducting interviews for the following City vacancies:
o Utilities Mechanic assigned to Public Works Services.
o Executive Assistant assigned to City Manager’s Office.
o HR successfully filled FT Sr. Plant Operator and School Crossing Guard vacancies.
HR continues to screen qualified candidates for the Executive Assistant vacancy and has
scheduled second interviews for the City Manager to meet and select a candidate.
HR along with appropriate Public Works Services supervisory Staff conducted interviews
of qualified candidates for the Utilities Mechanic vacancy with hope of selecting a finalist
for the position by the end of the week.
The City is pleased to have received an acceptance of our offer of employment from a WW
Plant Operator with an A license and more than 20 years of Plant experience.
True leaders are committed to helping others grow and achieve. They selflessly share knowledge
and inspiration and guide always with a sense of integrity.
Leadership was on full display during the June 20, 2017 City Council meeting. In response
to an exemplary Annual Performance Evaluation conducted by the Mayor and City Council
Members, City Manager, David L. Greene declined to accept his well-earned salary increase.
Mr. Greene requested his approved salary increase be distributed among City Staff. City
Council approved Mr. Greene’s request. No more need be said other than,
Thank You Mr. Greene, for all you do for Staff and the City.

Revenue
Ad Valorem Tax
City of Cape Canaveral
Fund Narrative
Period Ended May 31, 2017
To date, the City has received 96% of its ad valorem revenue. The City saw a spike in this revenue
source during the month of December. To date, we have received most of the budgeted ad valorem
revenue and the balance will trickle in during the month of June.
Local Option Gas Tax
This amount represents an accrual for April and May based on actual collections for October
through March. Fiscal Year 2016-17 budget is slightly more than Fiscal Year 2015-16.
Franchise Fees, Utility Service Taxes and Communications Service Tax
This amount represents an accrual for April and May based on actual collections for October
through March. This revenue is below target at this point but hopefully this trend will improve.
Permits and Licenses
Permits and Licenses are above target at 104.9%. This is a direct result of an improved real estate
climate resulting in an increase in building permits.
State Shared Revenues
This amount represents an accrual for April and May based on actual collections for October
through March. This revenue source is slightly over target at 69%.
Garbage and Recycling Revenues
This amount represents collections for the months of October through May. This revenue line is
slightly under target at 66.3%. This revenue source, however, tends to fluctuate from month to
month.
Recreation Fees (Leisure Services)
Recreation Fees are slightly under target at 63.7%. Although Hurricane Matthew caused the
cancellation of October's Friday Fest, leagues are starting up and the result is increased revenue
to the City.
Investment Income
Investment Income is under target at 55.9%. Although interest rates appear to be moving upward,
the funds available for investing are shrinking due to a number of large ongoing projects.
Utility Operating Income (Wastewater Fund)
Utility Operating Income is slightly over target at 66.8%.
Stormwater Utility Fees (Stormwater Fund)
Stormwater Utility Fees are slightly above target at 66.8%.

PetSafe Bark for Your Park Grant Program
As the City moves closer to embodying its Vision Statement, Staff is working on an application
for the annual PetSafe Bark for Your Park grant program. Currently, the City does not allow dogs
in any City Parks or on the beach nor does it have a "dog park" of any kind. Linked here you will
find a Community Dog Park Survey, and Staff would appreciate your feedback whether or not you
are a dog owner. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8TDY3Q6
Awards are as follows:
New Park Awards: Five communities without dog parks will receive prizes valuing
$25,000 each. PetSafe will work with the communities’ needs to determine how
they can best help each community open their dog park within three years!
Park Maintenance Awards: Ten communities will each receive a combination of
$10,000 worth of funds as well as high-quality dog park equipment from UltraSite
by PlayCore, a leading outdoor recreation product manufacturer.
Park Equipment Awards: Ten communities with existing dog parks will receive
prizes valuing $5,000 each to help maintain and improve their current dog park.
Communities who have previously won PetSafe dog parks can enter to win a park
maintenance award.

Summer Camp - Camp completed the fourth week of summer with a variety of activities. Monday
morning campers participated in the family nutrition program sponsored by the University of
Florida Institute of Food and Agriculture Services of Brevard County. Kids completed their
healthy food workbooks, watched a slide show and enjoyed a sampling of watermelon to end the
session. In the afternoon, they walked to the Nancy Hanson Recreation Complex for a karate
demonstration by The Ultimate Martial Arts Academy of Cocoa Beach. Tuesday’s adventures
included a trip to the Cobb Movie Theatre to watch “Surfs Up”. Wednesday morning the kids
headed out to Canaveral City Park for noodle blacktop hockey before walking to the library for a
music class taught by musician Anna Lusk. Campers were able to act out the song and sing along;
it was a hands on musical experience which they thoroughly enjoyed. Thursday, kids were able
to participate in the eighth annual World’s Largest Swimming Lesson helping spread the word that
“Swimming Lessons Save Lives”. Friday started off with a visit to Sandpiper Park for a round of
freeze tag and finished by numerous rounds of gaga ball. The week ended with reading time so
that campers could turn in their book bucks for weekly reading prizes at the library.
Local Artist Donates Painting for New City Hall - Resident Artist Mige Conley Davey has
generously donated a beautiful piece of her artwork to be displayed in the New City Hall.
Ms. Davey was born in Southwest Virginia and moved to California after graduating from
University of Tennessee with a B.A. in Art and Business. She continued her studies with the
University of California, Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, New York University,
as well as art workshops worldwide. During her 28 years in California, Mige had her own fashion
design business in addition to free-lance fashion illustration & design, as well as worked in sales
and marketing for the high tech industries in and around Silicone Valley.
In 1999, Mige retired from the business world, obtained her antiques and art appraisal certification
from NYU, and returned to the east coast to concentrate on her art and family. She considers her
workshops the most inspiring as having met and worked with many renown artists of our time who
have shared with her their many different techniques and philosophies. Mige has been a studio and
graphic design artist for the last 18 years living in Virginia and Cape Canaveral selling primarily
through commission and special projects of inspiration. The City is grateful to have such talented
resident artists, like Ms. Davey, who are willing to share their works with the community.
City Hall Call For Artwork - As part of the City’s burgeoning Public Arts Program, Staff has
initiated a campaign encouraging local artists to become stakeholders in Cape Canaveral’s cultural
landscape by showcasing their talents in the City’s public spaces. Culture and Leisure Services has
issued a Call for Artwork, inviting resident artists to loan or donate pieces of art to be put on
display in the New City Hall. Artists interested in contributing should contact Cultural Programs
Manager Molly Thomas at 321-868-1226 or via email at m.thomas@cityofcapecanaveral.org for
more information.
Blood Drive – Please make plans to stop by the library and donate some blood. The life you save
could be your own someday.
Back To School Jam – The backpacks are in! A very generous donation of 264 backpacks was
received from Cape Canaveral’s VFW Post 10131. To add to this program, the VFW Auxiliary
donated $1,000 to assist with the purchase of supplies needed to fill the backpacks. This great
partnership between these organizations and the City has been going strong for 3 years. Cape View
Elementary is considered a Title I school and for many of the parents who attend the event, the
money spent on backpacks could mean having to make a choice between shoes or school supplies
for their children. This year’s event will take place in conjunction with the school’s registration
and Staff is working with the school on adding elements like free haircuts to make an even bigger
impact on our community. A big THANK YOU to VFW Post 10131 and VFW Auxiliary for their
commitment to our children.

Canaveral City Park Exfiltration System. Staff is meeting with Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) personnel on June 28 to discuss possible discharge of
reclaimed water into the newly-installed exfiltration system at Canaveral City Park. Staff
previously met with St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) personnel to
discuss the City’s proposal which would further limit discharges of reclaimed water to the
Banana River Lagoon and increase the City’s credits in the Total Maximum Daily Load
(TMDL) Program. The City’s proposal includes connecting the reclaimed water hydrant
on Jackson Avenue to the exfiltration system for use when excess reclaimed water is
available. The proposed system was tentatively approved by SJRWMD, but will also
require approval from FDEP. Staff continues to monitor the exfiltration system for a one
year period as a requirement of the EPA 319 grant received for the Project.
Brevard County Stormwater Improvement Grant. Brevard County received a $139,000
grant from FDEP to upgrade 10 nutrient separating baffle boxes throughout the County.
Included in the grant is funding for major upgrades to the City’s baffle box on West Central
Boulevard. The grant has a 60%/40% match requirement.
Inlet Replacements. The City’s contractor will be replacing five inlets with Type “C”
inlets in the Presidential Streets area at the following locations:
o NW and NE corner of Adams/Poinsetta Avenues;
o NW corner of Jackson/Rosalind Avenues; and
o NW and SW corner of Harrison/Magnolia Avenues.
This is part of the City’s long-term program to replace older stormwater inlets with Type
“C” inlets which trap vegetation and debris prior to entering the City’s stormwater system.

City Manager
FROM: Jeff Ratliff
Capital Projects Director
DATE: June 20, 2017
RE: Florida Stormwater Association (FSA) Annual Conference
Staff attended this conference in Ft. Myers on June 14-16; key topics of discussion
included the following:
In the opening remarks session, State Representative Matthew Caldwell made it
very clear that local municipalities are not going to receive blank checks from
Tallahassee to address stormwater issues. He also made the point that the Federal
government has a $20 trillion deficit so funds for stormwater improvements are
hard to obtain even after heavy lobbying from state politicians.
Counties and municipalities are going to have to “step up to the plate” to address
a majority of these issues. Brevard County was praised a number of times due to
the recent passage of the Save Our Indian River Lagoon Referendum.
The funding of septic tanks to sanitary sewer was discussed. The point was made
that many residents in Florida have already paid to have sewer hookups for their
homes and businesses. Why should they now have to pay for others to hookup?
This issue will not be resolved any time soon.
An excellent presentation was given by Brevard County staff on the recently
passed Save Our Indian River Lagoon Referendum. This successful effort is
being used as a model throughout the state to raise awareness of stormwater
issues and how to obtain funding for improvement projects.
Another comment was made that the same stormwater issues have now been
discussed in Florida for the past 15-20 years. Some communities have responded
– others have not. Stakeholders should not wait on technological improvements
or outside funding to address these issues or the same topics will continue to be
discussed for the next 15-20 years.
Numerous presentations addressed the quality of reclaimed water. Apparently,
reclaimed water used for irrigation in some counties and municipalities is high in
nitrogen and phosphorous content. These nutrients are then transported to local
Public Works Services
water bodies during/after heavy rainstorms. Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) staff will be monitoring nutrient
concentrations in reclaimed water more closely in the future.
Several presentations concerned rising sea levels in South Florida. Some
innovative techniques currently used to limit flooding during high tides includes:
o Using large check valves in stormwater lines;
o Changing ordinances to require higher finished floor elevations;
o Requiring that all roadways be raised to eliminate street flooding; and
o Using pumping stations to pump stormwater from City stormwater
systems to nearby water bodies.
Several presentations were made discussing the benefits of including stormwater
improvements into streetscape projects. The City of Tavares was a good example
as they are redeveloping their downtown area. Inclusion of these improvements
also increases the likelihood of receiving grant funds.
The complete FSA agenda is available upon request. The bottom line: FSA continues to
be a leader in dealing with Florida’s water resource and environmental issues, especially
relating to stormwater management.
