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 livable, 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
walkable 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.

Labor Market Update
Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen says:
“The Fed may have been wrong on employment and inflation,
which would mean easier policy ahead.”
(Source: NBC Money Watch)
The Federal Reserve may have overstated the
strength of the labor market and the risk of
inflation, leaving some to believe anticipated
interest rate hikes, may be put on the back
burner.
"My colleagues and I may have misjudged the
strength of the labor market, the degree to
which longer-run inflation expectations are
consistent with our inflation objective or even
the fundamental forces driving inflation,"
Yellen said, according to prepared remarks.
How does that impact us?
Anticipated “gradual increases” in the interest rate are expected to ease as evidenced by the
Feds taking a pass on raising rates in September.
While interest rate increases are likely to occur, the Feds are attempting to achieve the delicate
balance of adjusting interest rates at “just the right time”.
The Feds expect long-run inflation to trend toward the 2 percent target that policymakers
believe is healthy for economic growth, but prepared to adjust their strategy should their
projections be wrong. The Feds believe a 2 percent rate of inflation demonstrates healthy
marketplace demands.
While lower inflation and interest rates are popular with businesses and consumers, the Feds
worry that keeping rates too low for too long will allow little room for stimulus when another
economic slowdown hits.
Yellen attributes the inaccuracies in previous forecasts to a prolonged productivity slowdown,
reduced inflation expectations and other dynamics that have restrained growth and inflation.
In conclusion, the U.S. economy is dynamic and job-growth outlook is strong, but not all sectors of the
economy are enjoying the same prosperity. Growth remains largely “tech driven” and employers report
their greatest barrier to growth is identifying employees with the skills and experience needed for
expansion.
Washington Healthcare Turmoil
Leaves Insurance Markets and Americans Uncertain.
Each fall millions of Americans, whether they have health insurance through an employer, the
Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace, Medicaid or Medicare, are granted an opportunity to make
changes or enroll for the first time for health insurance. Usually the ritual of selecting the right health
plan for the coming year is relatively predictable, but not this year!
Here’s Why
Since January 2017, The Republican Congress has focused on numerous failed attempts to
“Repeal and Replace Obamacare”. Needing only a simple majority to achieve the much touted
goal, Mitch McConnell “threw in the towel” the last week of September, after failing to achieve
Party unity on an alternative moving forward. The battle to repeal the Affordable Care Act, has
left insurance markets uncertain, many of which are pulling out of “low profit” rural areas
where prior to the ACA, there were few, if any providers.
Committed to repealing “Obamacare”, Republicans and President Trump threatened on
numerous occasions to cease premium assistance payments afforded to millions of families.
Also referred to as Healthcare subsidies, premium assistance helps fund premiums for
Americans who meet specific income eligibility requirements. Without continued premium
assistance, millions of families and individuals enrolled through the ACA cannot afford health
insurance. Without a clear guarantee of continued Washington support to continue subsidies,
Insurance providers pulled out of rural and poor regions of the Country. It’s important to
understand that insurance is all about “numbers”. A much larger number of people must share
risk in order to ensure the fewer sick enrollees have the services. Younger healthier enrollees
fund the services of the older less healthy until which time the younger become the older and
the next generation extends the same “favor”.
President Trump has vowed to not enforce penalties assessed to individuals who fail to enroll
in healthcare. Said penalties motivate individuals to enroll in healthcare much like losing your
Driver’s License motivates a driver to obtain car insurance. Lots of people, particularly the
young don’t believe they need health insurance because they are “young and healthy”. Of
course everyone is healthy until…they’re not. Accidents and illness tend not to adhere to date
of birth rules.
Washington is not supporting outreach and enrollment services to individuals in need of
assistance.
The ACA Open Enrollment period has been significantly reduced. If you or someone you
know wishes to enroll in healthcare or make changes to their current ACA Healthcare Plan, the
following dates are critical. Don’t expect any sort of public information or media
campaign this time around.
Hurricane victims get special enrollment period
for healthcare exchange, Medicare
CMS established the following special enrollment periods to support individuals impacted by
hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, BUT YOU MUST CALL AND MAKE A REQUEST.
Medicare Special Enrollment Period: This special enrollment period will allow individuals
affected by these hurricanes to enroll, dis-enroll or switch Medicare health or prescription drug
plans. It is available at the start of the incident period and runs through the end of the calendar year.
Individuals may contact: 1-800-MEDICARE to request enrollment
using this special enrollment opportunity.
Federal Health Insurance Exchange Special Enrollment Period: CMS created this special
enrollment period for certain individuals impacted by these hurricanes who need to enroll in a 2017
plan through the Exchange or make changes to their existing 2017 plan. This special enrollment
period will apply to individuals who experienced a special enrollment period qualifying event
between 60 days prior to the start date of the incident period and December 31, 2017, but were
unable to complete the application, plan selection and enrollment process due to a hurricane-related
weather event in 2017. This special enrollment period will allow individuals impacted by the storms
to select a new 2017 Exchange Plan or make changes to their existing plan at any time through
December 31, 2017.
Individuals affected by the storms may contact the
Exchange Call Center at: 1-800-318-2596 to enroll in a Plan.
Vacancy Update
The City amended the PT Accountant position vacancy to full-time and are continuing to seek a
qualified individual with public/municipal accounting experience. HR, the Administrative/Financial
Services Director and Deputy Director interviewed three candidates. HR is currently completing the
screening process to include referencing and education attainment verification prior to preparing a
recommendation to the City Manager.
Brombacher Insurance, LLC
City Staff participated in workshops conducted by Brombacher Insurance, LLC, which detailed the
benefits offered to regular full-time employees for the 2017/18 Plan Year. The City is pleased to
announce no changes to the current benefits offered to City Staff. The City remains committed to
protecting employees from risk and ensuring quality preventative care, hospitalization, dental, vision,
life and long-term disability protection.
IRMA Update
Hurricane Irma may have come and gone, but
the process of assessing damages, chasing
down adjustors, obtaining restoration
estimates and gathering FEMA
documentation has only just begun.
Overwhelmed by the historic number and magnitude of Major Hurricanes to hit the US and US
territories to include Puerto Rico and American Virgin Islands, FEMA outreach is slow in coming and
the City has been informed that the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management will act as
the “go between” for Florida Counties and Cities. The State of Florida is also providing FEMA
assistance to US Citizens in Puerto Rico and the American Virgin Islands as these populations are
without electric, water or reliable communication.
HR/Risk Management spends most days occupied in Disaster Recovery and Claims Processing.
While fully insured through FMIT at the time of the event, the carriers 5% “named storm”
deductible leaves the City reliant on its supplemental National Flood Insurance Policy which
carries a $5,000 deductible.
Like the rest of Brevard County, the extraordinarily high levels of rainfall following Irma have
caused additional flooding contributing to extreme water, additional facilities damages and
utility challenges.
Brevard County is seeking FEMA assistance on recent flood damage on the premise that current
flooding conditions would not have occurred if not for Hurricane IRMA leaving the ground and
waterways thoroughly saturated. Essentially, Brevard is asking FEMA to recognize IRMA and
damages incurred by subsequent rainfall, as a single related event.
HR/Risk Management participated in a wide-range of FEMA sponsored Webinars intended to
instruct public entities of FEMA’s “newly revamped” claims processing system. While the
FEMA database system does not communicate with the Emergency Management Systems at the
State Level nor permit the downloading of files and information, City Staff remains hopeful for
an effective claims processing experience.

Revenue
Ad Valorem Tax
City of Cape Canaveral
Fund Narrative
Period Ended August 31 , 2017
To date, the City has received 99.7% 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 September.
Local Option Gas Tax
This amount represents an accrual for July and August based on actual collections for October
through June. 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 July and August based on actual collections for October
through June. This revenue is slightly below target at this point but hopefully this trend will
improve.
Permits and Licenses
Permits and Licenses are above target at 160.2%. 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 July and August based on actual collections for October
through June. This revenue source is over target at 95.3%.
Garbage and Recycling Revenues
This amount represents collections for the months of October through August. This revenue line
is slightly above target at 92.1 %. This revenue source, however, tends to fluctuate from month to
month.
Recreation Fees (Leisure Services)
Recreation Fees are under target at 72.8%. Although Hurricane Matthew caused the cancellation
of October's Friday Fest, leagues have started up and the result has been increased revenue to the
City.
Investment Income
Investment Income is slightly above target at 93.5%. Although interest rates appear to be moving
upward, the funds available for investing will be affected due to a number of large ongoing
projects.
Utility Operating Income (Wastewater Fund)
Utility Operating Income is slightly over target at 93.4%.
Stormwater Utility Fees (Stormwater Fund)
Stormwater Utility Fees are slightly above target at 93.9%.

Community Engagement
Update for Week Ending October 6, 2017
Community Engagement is primarily responsible for implementation/evaluation of public
programs, community meetings, public gatherings and more. Staff attended various meetings,
performed day-to-day duties/responsibilities, Website maintenance/improvements and performed
content sourcing throughout the City for various digital/social media platforms.
Highlights:
Communication throughout the week with Staff from multiple Departments regarding:
Resident concerns about hurricane damage to City property, including stop signs and
sprinklers.
Potential code enforcement violations.
Event coordination (Trunk or Treat, National Night Out, Community Garden Brainstorm).
City Council Orientation booklet update.
Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) process/timeline meeting with multiple
Departments/Directors.
County/FEMA Hurricane Irma conference call.
Community engagement with residents and local organizations regarding:
Trunk or Treat.
Hurricane Irma resident clean-up.
Helping victims of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.
Community Garden clean-up.
National Night Out from the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.
Kids’ Yoga classes at the Community Garden/Patriots Park.
Hosting future Tech Talks.
Sea turtle nesting season and rack on the beach.
Storm damage/rain event/flooding around the City and to the Sykes Creek Bridge.
Re-installation of the Little Free Libraries on Polk Ave and in Patriots Park.
National Night Out
On Tuesday, October 3, Staff attended National Night Out at Cape Canaveral City Park. The event
was hosted by our Brevard County Sheriff's Office (BCSO) deputies to enhance the City's sense
of Community by allowing a chance to chat (and play football and Frisbee) with local law
enforcement. BCSO deputies served up hot dogs, sodas and smiles, and provided live music,
demonstrations of K-9 units, bomb-detection robots and more! The U.S. Coast Guard and Fire
Department also came out to have a great time with the Community.
Habitat for Humanity
Staff escorted three (3) representatives from the Brevard
office of the Habitat for Humanity on a tour of the City
on Wednesday, October 4, 2017. The representatives and
Staff were looking for land/houses/property that could
benefit from the many Habitat for Humanity programs.
The intended programs work with current home owners
to improve the exterior and yard of their Cape Canaveral
homes. Once houses are selected Staff will work with
Habitat for Humanity to contact the home owners.
Hurricane Irma Debris Pick-up
Staff coordinated with the City-contracted waste hauler, Waste Pro, to collect/remove over 345
tons of Hurricane Irma related yard debris from Tuesday, September 12, 2017 to Tuesday, October
3, 2017. Staff used social media, the City Website and NIXLE to notify residents of debris clean-
up days and information. Staff also used Manatee Sanctuary Park as a resident debris drop-off
area. In comparison, during the Hurricane Matthew 2016 clean-up Waste Pro removed over 375
tons of yard debris.
Rain Event 10/1/2017
The City was bombarded by over 8 inches of rain in a matter of hours on the evening of Sunday,
October 1, 2017. The City’s storm water system did its best to keep up, but the extreme amount of
rain and flash flooding effect seen throughout the City (and County) was more than it could handle.
Several streets/neighborhoods flooded as the rain continued, but quickly flowed out once there
was a break in the deluge. Even with the Hurricane Irma debris still on some City streets/curbs,
much of the flooding we saw was not due to clogged storm water inlets. More likely, flooding
is/was due to:
High groundwater table from recent rain events like Hurricane Irma.
The high water level of the City's central ditch which is directly impacted by the current
extreme height of the Banana River.
Inability of the storm water system to drain due to high water levels of the Banana River
and central ditch, leaving water in streets or yards.
The fact that our storm water system was not designed to handle one of the most intense
rainfalls we've seen in decades (10 inches in 3 hours).
You can help by limiting sewage usage: Avoid long showers, laundry, car washes, running
dishwashers and keep flushing to a minimum.
This sort of rain event/extreme weather looks like it could become our new “normal”, so while the
City dries out, it is a great time to prepare for the next event. Sandbags are an inexpensive item
that would help in a rain/flooding event. Please remember it is illegal to collect sand from the
beach. Sandbags should also be a part of your Hurricane Preparedness Plan. The following
locations sell sandbags online and in store:
Amazon Website
Home Depot Website
Uline Website
Quick Dam Website
Sandbags and play sand are also in stock locally at ACE Hardware on SR A1A.

Drown Zero
City Staff is working with Drown Zero (formerly the Life
Rescue Project) to redesign the City of Cape Canaveral
public beach flotation device program. Communication
with the project founder has been slow as of late, due to
his recent trip to bring supplies/assist Harvey victims in
Houston, TX. Unfortunately, Hurricane Irma wiped out
all the pvc poles/stations from the beach, but before the
storm event PWS Staff had collected all the throw able
“tubes” for safe keeping. Drown Zero has been working
for several months to reengineer the program with a
throw able ring, instead of a throw able tube. The core
message/mission of Drown Zero will remain rooted in
the education of water safety!
Drown Zero's mission is to prevent drownings
worldwide through education, awareness, and rescue
equipment implementation.

Community Garden Brainstorm Event
On Tuesday, September 26, 2017, Staff met with
several past/prospective members of the Cape
Canaveral Community Garden to discuss future
plans/goals for Season 3 of the garden. Ideas
included transitions to increase Community
involvement, expanding the garden area,
planting decorative and native pollinators in the
front beds, creating larger plots and
implementing a system for gardeners to better
communicate with one another and log the
number of vegetables/herbs they harvest. Residents who would like to participate in Season 3 of
the Community Garden can email Rebekah McLain at: r.mclain@cityofcapecanaveral.org
New gardeners will be admitted on a first come/first serve basis.

City to Partner with VSA for Student Art Show
In an effort to explore outreach opportunities and increase the inclusivity of the annual Student Art
Show, the City’s Cultural Programs Manager toured the Brevard Achievement Center (BAC) and
met with a representative of VSA Florida, the State organization on Arts and Disability. Now
entering its 19th year, the Student Art Show can accommodate 15 schools with each institution
submitting 40 pieces of art. While the City has always encouraged teachers to submit artwork from
students of all abilities, forging this partnership with the VSA will ensure that at least 40 students
will be able to participate in the Show that may not have had the opportunity otherwise.
Florida Frontiers
The City’s Cultural Programs Manager and Staff Historian, Molly Thomas, sat for an interview
with Dr. Ben Brotmarkle, the Executive Director of the Florida Historical Society, to discuss
Florida’s role in America’s War for Independence. Ms. Thomas has written a three-part series on
Florida’s involvement in the conflict, featured in the Brevard County Historical Commissions
Indian River Journal—of which the final installment will be released next month in the Fall 2017
issue. Her interview will be aired on the “Florida Frontiers” television series, produced by the
Florida Historical Society and aired on WUCF (Brighthouse: 5, Direct TV: 24, Antenna: 2). This
series explores numerous topics pertaining to Florida’s history and culture and proudly covers
everything from the Ice Age to the Space Age and Beyond. “Florida Frontiers” also has a weekly
column in Florida Today and hosts a half-hour Radio Magazine broadcast locally on 89.5 WFIT
of Melbourne. For more information on the “Florida Frontiers” series and to catch-up on past

Staff Assists with Transfer of Irma Canoe for Conservation
The City’s Cultural Programs Manager and Staff Historian was on-hand Thursday morning to
assist the Florida Division of Historical Resources (DHR) and Bureau of Archaeological Research
(BAR) in loading up a historic dug-out canoe for transport to Tallahassee, where they will begin
the lengthy process of conservation. The “Irma Canoe,” as it has come to be called, reportedly
washed ashore during the storm and swiftly went viral on social media after the hurricane. It is
about fifteen feet long and initial reports indicate that it is constructed of cypress. The BAR
announced this week that the Carbon 14 (C14) dating analysis suggest that the canoe dates back
several hundred years, but further testing is required to confirm these findings. From Florida’s
earliest indigenous populations and into the modern era, this State has a very rich boat-making
tradition that extends at least 7,000 years. While this canoe is not a pre-historic relic, it is a
significant piece of local history and exemplifies the long culture of canoe-making and water
transportation that was a necessary part of life for those living on Brevard’s barrier islands prior
to the construction of the bridges we use today. (Photo credit: Michael W. Hallberg)
Public Works Services
Update for Week Ending October 6, 2017
Staff performed day-to-day duties/responsibilities and assisted various telephone/walk-in requests
from the public.
Wastewater Treatment Plant / Sanitary Sewer System
Oxidation Ditch Rehabilitation Project. Initial bypass operations of the oxidation ditch
are complete. The oxidation ditch will be drained in the near future with the anoxic basin
serving as a temporary oxidation ditch for the next several months. Current focus continues
to be on the installation of: (1) underground piping from the oxidation ditch to the anoxic
basin and (2) aeration system in the anoxic basin. Recent heavy rains flooded pipe
excavations and slowed work progress; dewatering of the excavations continues. Current
project construction completion: 68%.
De-Grit System Replacement. The City’s contractor replaced the de-grit system at the
wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) – a budgeted item for FY2016-2017. The purpose of
the system is to remove sand, silt and grit from the wastewater stream prior to entering the
main treatment portion of the WWTP. Grit and other solid materials can clog treatment
systems, reduce plant efficiencies and cause abrasion damage/wear that lead to increased
cleaning, maintenance and repair.
Banana River Shoreline. Staff is preparing a bid package (engineering drawings and
specifications) for advertisement to repair erosional damage from Hurricane Irma to the
Banana River shoreline at Center Street Park and the WWTP.
Typical erosional damage along Banana River shoreline.
Stormwater
Stormwater Inlet Replacements. Five stormwater inlets were replaced with Type “C”
inlets at the following locations:
