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.

Healthcare Update
Republican’s Combine Tax Cuts with Healthcare
With mounting concerns about how to “sell” the concept of a $1.5
trillion projected deficit impact of the “Cut-Cut-Cut Tax Bill” to fiscal
conservatives, the Senate is attempting to combine the repeal of the
Affordable Health Care Act (AHCA) Individual Mandate which
requires Americans to have Health Insurance. Eliminating the
Individual Mandate is projected to result in the loss of healthcare for 13 million Americans and increase
insurance premiums for all remaining insured Americans by 10%. Scrambling for a legislative “Win”
for the President and themselves, Republicans need to reduce the deficit impact of the Tax Bill in order
to avoid the Senate rules requirement of 60 “Yes” votes for passage. Hoping for a $312 billion budget
savings by reducing AHCA enrollments, Republicans hope to achieve a “2 for 1” victory.
HealthCare.gov Posts Strong First-Week Results
Despite drastically reduced, federally-funded outreach and consumer enrollment assistance programs,
as well market volatility created by the unsuccessful, but ongoing efforts by the Republicans and
President Trump to repeal the AHCA, Americans are buying healthcare on the HealthCare.gov
website in record numbers.
Consumer fears about the future of the Affordable Care Act may be driving early sales of 2018 public
exchange plans through the roof. HealthCare.gov took in 2018 plan selection information for an
average of about 150,000 people per day during the first four days of the open enrollment period for
2018, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
That's whopping increase of 79% from an average of 84,000 per day during the first 12 days
of the open enrollment period for 2016, according to a comparison of new data from CMS
posted a year ago.
Plan selection activity for returning HealthCare.gov users has increased 83%, to about 116,000
per day.
Activity for consumers new to the exchange plan system has increased 67%, to 34,000 per day.
The average daily HealthCare.gov user count has increased 70%, year-over-year, to 643,000.
The average daily number of call center users has increased just 27%, to 132,000.

Sexual Harassment - Has Something Changed?
By Jane Ross, HR/Risk Management Director,
City of Cape Canaveral
If you’re wondering what’s going on with all
the charges of sexual harassment or thinking
there might be some form of epidemic of “bad
behavior” suddenly emerging in the
workplace, you’re not alone. The answer to
the recent increase in reports of sexual
harassment may lie in the way different
generations view the problem, as well as how
they respond to inappropriate sexual behavior
in the form of unwanted and at times
persistent advances.
Let’s take a look at the evolving attitudes on sexual harassment starting with the first generation
of women to enter the workforce, the “Baby Boomers”.
Baby Boomers, Women born between 1946-1964 began entering the workforce in huge
numbers. Spurred by the Women’s Liberation Movement and voicing demands for female
equality, this generation enrolled in college, earned degrees and did something previous
generations of women seldom did - they continued to work after marriage and while raising
their children. They gained confidence by the economic independence of earning an income
and significantly increasing the economic status of their families. While they fought for equal
career opportunities and pioneered Legislative protections from inequality and sexual
harassment in the workplace, faced with the realities of ingrained sexist attitudes, they viewed
the behavior of “gross grabby guys” as inevitable and were more likely to keep calm, shrug it
off, and carry on. Equality in the workplace was a goal, but most certainly not a reality.
Generation X, Women born between 1965-1980’s, with a relatively small demographic
impact, were more likely to follow the lead of their Baby Boomer predecessors with the “keep
quiet and carry on” attitude. “Gen X” women had a front row seat during the 1991 Nationally
televised testimony of Anita Hill before the Senate, where Senators generally discredited her
testimony, recounting sexually harassing treatment by Clarence Thomas. While Ms. Hill’s
testimony cost her dearly, Justice Thomas was confirmed and currently sits on the Nation’s
highest court. In short, while equality in the workplace was given theoretical “lip service”, the
realities were not always clear.
Millennials, Women born after 1980 have grown up in a different world where the concept
of women’s equality in the workplace is almost taken for granted. This generation attends
college in higher numbers, representing the majority of students attending college. These
women are accustomed to seeing women doctors, lawyers and are far less tolerant of
inappropriate behavior – they are less likely to quietly endure and are much more likely to speak
up at the time they are subjected to sexual harassment. While their mothers and grandmothers
seldom reported sexual assault and felt a sense of shame as being a victim, Millennials are far
greater willing to speak up; feeling strongly that by speaking up, they encourage others to speak
up too and shine a light on the abuse and the abuser.
Millennial Views are as Follows:
They don’t want to walk around as a silent victim for 20 or 30 years. Better
to speak up when it happens, ensure the perpetrator is punished and set an
example for other women to speak up.
Speaking up is important because women need to know they are not alone.
While 75% of American women of all ages surveyed said they experienced sex-based harassment in
their workplace, women are becoming far less likely to “keep quiet”. Women are sharing their “Me
Too” stories on social media and the false veil of victim shame is lifting.

Community Garden - Season 3 Kickoff
Gardeners kicked-off Season 3 of the Cape Canaveral Community Garden on Saturday,
November 11, 2017. Mayor Pro Tem Brendan McMillan stopped by to check out the changes in
the garden. This year the program is transitioning to a true community garden model, in which
gardeners work together to decide what to plant and will care for their crops as a group.
Gardeners will also share the harvest of the entire garden. In previous seasons, each gardener
was assigned a single plot and was limited in the amount of vegetables or herbs that could be
grown.
The Community Garden was recently expanded and
now has four (4) new plots, which were
upcycled/constructed from Hurricane Irma debris in
keeping with the garden’s goal to be more sustainable.
Other additions include extra shade, more potable
water containers, a larger compost area and cool
features like a storage bench. A huge shout out to the
Public Works Services Dream Team for all their work
on the expansion!

18, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. to plant their Season 3 crops.

Cultural Programs – Rewriting History
For decades, Cape Canaveral and its Port have celebrated the City’s little known cameo appearance
in America’s War for Independence, definitively dubbed “The Last Naval Battle of the American
Revolution”. As such a treasured piece of the City’s history, Cultural Programs Manager and
Brevard County Historical Commissioner, Molly Thomas took it upon herself to dust off this old
story and bring it back to the light, writing a three article series about the event for the local history
publication, The Indian River Journal. Through the glories of modern technology, Ms. Thomas
was able to dig a little deeper into the story uncovering records likely inaccessible to previous
researchers. Included in these, were digitized images of handwritten ship logs, primary sources
penned by Commodore Barry himself, which gave day-by-day details of his extraordinary journey
out of Havana. Using the coordinates and times listed in Barry’s records, she was able to map out
Barry’s route from start to finish—calculating his travel times each step of the way. As exciting as
these records were, Ms. Thomas did not anticipate where they would lead—or more precisely
where they wouldn’t lead. After hours of reading, mapping, calculating and re-calculating, the
disappointing truth became abundantly clear. The Last Naval Battle of the American Revolution
did not happen anywhere near Cape Canaveral.
As difficult as this conclusion was to accept, accuracy and integrity are not optional. It is
overwhelming how frequently legends evolve into “facts” and how quickly these facts can change
with the introduction of newly available sources. It is the responsibility of those in public history
to ensure that consensus history does not prevail over the truth, even when the truth is not in their
favor. To help promote these findings, Florida Frontiers published an article this week in Florida
Today discussing Ms. Thomas’ research and what it means in the scope of Florida history. If you

Fire at the Library
A trashcan caught fire outside of the Library on Wednesday evening. Canaveral Fire Rescue was
on the scene within minutes to put it out. Staff cleaned up and power washed the remnants. A new
can will be purchased and installed. It is believed that a lit cigarette was the culprit and was thrown
in the can even though a cigarette container was provided and available next to the garbage can. If
you smoke, please ensure your cigarette is out before disposing of it. Many wildfires which have
cost billions of dollars in damage have occurred from carelessly disposing of cigarette butts.

Public Works Services
Update for Week Ending November 17, 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. Current focus is on completion of all underground piping installations and
improvements to the aeration system in the anoxic basin. Substantial completion date is
June 28, 2018. Current project construction completion: 72%.
Underground piping excavation adjacent to Anoxic Basin – looking South.
Force Main #3 Replacement. Staff is working with an area property owner to obtain
access for the best possible route (and shortest) from Thurm Boulevard to West Central
Boulevard for this replacement force main, which will be designed/installed in the current
budget year.
Air Compresser Replacements. Staff has initiated the replacement of three air
compressers at the WWTP. One new air compresser is currently installed; two others will

Stormwater
Recent Flood Events. Staff continues to:
1. Investigate flooding incidents which occurred throughout the City in September
and October.
2. Meet with residents concerning drainage issues. The City’s Inmate Crew continues
to inspect inlets/manholes and outfalls to remove debris. However, no major
obstructions have been encountered. Continued street flooding is a result of a
number of factors including:
High groundwater table.
Near record high water level of the Banana River – also high water level in
Central Ditch.
High water levels in area stormwater ponds.
Standing water in stormwater lines.
The good news is that water levels in the Banana River and area stormwater ponds continue
to fall; a lower groundwater table has also been observed in area wells.
WWTP Shoreline Improvements. The City’s Engineer is currently preparing engineering
drawings and bid specifications for improvements to this Banana River shoreline. Upon
completion, the Project will be advertised for public bid. Engineering drawings are also
being prepared for shoreline improvements at the following City-owned facilities:
Banana River Park – minor damage to kayak launch area.
International Drive – minor damage to concrete outfall area.
Center Street Park – minor damage to concrete outfall area.
The shoreline improvements at these three facilities will be performed by IM Staff.
Infrastructure Maintenance
Columbia Drive Solar-Powered Lights. Staff ordered solar-powered lights for the
Columbia Drive corridor. Ten solar-powered lights will be installed in the roadway median
to replace the existing electric street lights.
West Central Boulevard Baffle Box Rehab. This baffle box will be fitted with new
interior screens for conversion to a “second generation” baffle box. All funding for the
Project ($43,800) will be provided by the Save Our Indian River Lagoon (SOIRL) Program
and a 319 grant from Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). Work is
scheduled to begin mid-December.
New 100kw Generator for Brevard County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) Annex/City Hall.
The replacement generator for these facilities is currently being installed. Upon
completion, generator service will be available to the BCSO Annex and current City Hall
during power outages. Portions of the City Hall parking lot will be closed until completion
of the work. An emergency generator for the new City Hall facility will be installed in the
next few weeks.
Miscellaneous
Proposed Environmental-Related State Budget. The Governor’s proposed
environmental-related budget includes a number of recommendations that could impact
Brevard County. These would include additional funds for beach re-nourishment,
improvements to state parks and acquisition of sensitive lands (Florida Forever). A FDEP
Press Release summarizing the proposed budget is attached.

SRF loan files and projects on December 5, 2017. The audit will include review of financial
files, project documentation and a site inspections. FDEP Staff will also review financial
files in the Finance Department.
State Road (SR) A1A Road
Repairs. Single lane closures
continue on State Road A1A at
George King Boulevard near Port
Canaveral. Closures are expected to
stay in place for the next few weeks
for repairs to the bridge approaches;
the original construction schedule
was revised due to recent inclement weather. The construction is part of the FDOT
resurfacing project on SR A1A from George King Boulevard to the beginning of SR 528
at SR 401. Check www.CFLroads.com for updates. For construction-related questions,
