CITY OF
CAPE CANAVERAL BETWEEN°
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.

Ways to Manage the Holiday Blues
(Source: Mutual of Omaha Employee Assistance Program)
As the holidays approach, you may be telling yourself, "This year will be different," or"I'm going to
eat less, drink responsibly, spend wisely and enjoy the season more."Yet, things don't always seem
to work out that way. Family conflicts, hectic schedules, limited financial resources, stress and
loneliness can contribute to your disappointment, especially if you have expectations of a storybook
holiday season. One way of managing this time of year is to maintain balance and a sense of
perspective. Here are some tips on how to achieve that balance.
• Set limits for yourself. Budgeting, planning and saying"no" are effective ways to stay in
control.
• Be realistic with your expectations. Lower your expectations to make the holidays more
manageable. For example, ask yourself, "Do I really need to bake and personally decorate all
• re you #HurricaneReady? Make a plan! -
Visit www.citvofcanecanaveral.org/hurricane 4
the holiday cookies?"Be resourceful and delegate some of your tasks. Ask for help from
others instead of trying to do it all yourself
• Avoid competing with others. Do what you think is best for you and your loved ones,
financially, socially and otherwise. Appreciate and enjoy what others are doing, but avoid
comparing yourself to them.
• Examine your holiday lifestyle. Healthy living reduces stress. Monitor your sleep, exercise,
eating and drinking patterns. Moderating your behavior may enhance your enjoyment of the
holidays.
• Avoid emotionally negative experiences. Keeping your distance from potentially negative
individuals can help you manage the blues. If certain family members habitually argue,
disagree or complain, limit the amount of time you spend with them.
• Surround yourself with loving, caring people. Whether it's family, friends, neighbors or
co-workers, spend meaningful time in fellowship, fun and supporting one another.
• Experience the gift of giving. Participate in Community activities,volunteer or donate to
charities. Share your actions and experiences with your children and grandchildren as an
learning opportunity.

Update for Week Ending October 12, 2018
The Public Works Services (PWS) Department's primary purpose is to provide and maintain utility
services for the general public as well as maintain all City streets and facilities. Staff provides
services in five main categories which include administration, infrastructure maintenance,
laboratory, reclaimed water and wastewater collection.
Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) — Sanitary Sewer System
Oxidation Ditch Rehabilitation Project
Full bypass operations from the oxidation ditch to the equalization basin were started in
mid-January. Dry and wet testing of the new system is complete and no issues were encountered.
Staff received approval from Florida Department of Environmental Protection(FDEP)to place the
ditch back into service. The contractor emptied the reclaimed water used during the testing
procedures from the ditch, and it is now fully operational. Equipment removal, general cleanup of
the site and Staff training will complete the project.
Force Main #3 Replacement Project
The project was initiated and includes the replacement of Force Main#3 located within several
right-of-ways in the north-central portion of the City. FDEP provided final approval to place the new
force main into service. Abandonment of the old force main, curb, gutter and sidewalk repairs,
sodding and road striping are complete. Final walk-through was performed on October 12, and the
project is complete.
Lift Station No. 2 and Holman Road Sewer Improvements
This project was initiated and includes the excavation and replacement of the existing sanitary sewer
pipe and manholes from Lift Station No. 2 on Center Street to the northwestern corner of Holman
Road. Work completed to date includes the installation of sewer pipe in the vicinity of Lift Station
No. 2, the former Tech-Vest property and Cape Shores condominiums. Work continues southward
toward Holman Road. The project is due for completion in May 2019.

Sanitary Sewer Line Repair—Central Ditch
Repairs continue to the sanitary sewer line adjacent to the northern end of the central ditch near Port
Canaveral. Manholes, lids and sewer pipe were replaced at a number of locations and impacted soil
was excavated and removed. The sewer line was repaired and will be flushed to increase flow after
all activities are completed. Staff is investigating the details of the spill that occurred here and will
post updates when more information is available.

Stormwater
Save Our Indian River Lagoon (SOIRL) Program
Brevard County released the revised documents required for funding assistance from SOIRL for
stormwater improvement projects in Fiscal Year 2018 —2019. Staff is currently reviewing potential
projects for submittal.
Floating Vegetation Islands (FVIs or BeeMats) Installation
The City previously constructed a number of wet detention ponds in order to reduce pollutant loads
to the Banana River. Wet detention ponds provide stormwater treatment through settling of heavy
sediment particles and biological uptake within the pond's ecosystem. The City has also enhanced
the pollutant removal effectiveness of existing facilities through this project by adding FVIs (or
BeeMats) to three existing ponds one at Manatee Sanctuary Park and two at the Water
Reclamation Facility. Nutrients removed from the water are stored in the plant mass and are
harvested,preventing resuspension of nutrients when the plants die.
There are approximately 1.9 acres
of surface water in the three ponds s„ "- '®� ^,

Infrastructure Maintenance
State Road (SR) AlA Mast Arm Construction Project
This project was initiated on October 8 and includes the installation of traffic light mast arms and
other improvements at the following intersections with State Road(SR)AlA:
• Holman Road
• Center Street
• N. Atlantic Avenue
Initial tasks include drainage, lighting, sidewalk, curbing and crosswalk improvements at each
intersection. Initial surveying was already completed. Extensive maintenance of traffic (MOT)will
be in place and lanes on both SR AlA and City-owned side streets will be intermittently closed to
vehicular traffic. Sidewalks will also be intermittently closed to pedestrians. This project has been
delayed several months due to the lack of availability of galvanized steel mast arms. Project funding
is through Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT).
Miscellaneous
WRF Sampling Event
The City's consultant collected liquid samples from the following WRF locations on September 7,
2018:
• WRF influent
• Area immediately prior to the reclaimed water tank
• Monitoring well near the maintenance building
The samples are being laboratory analyzed for poly-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFAs)by
Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) Method 537. These compounds were recently detected in
samples collected in Satellite Beach and Cocoa Beach. Staff is awaiting a report from the City's
consultant detailing the results of the sampling event.

Teach Children About Home Safety
(Source: httos://www.safewise.com/bloa/teach-children-home-safetv/1
With so many families having both parents in the workforce and technology making our lives
incredibly transparent, home safety and security have never had such importance. Setting security
and safety expectations with your children should start at a young age and should be reinforced
through direct communication and lifestyle observations. Remember, you're the best example for
your children.
But how do you teach them to be safe without scaring them? Here's a look at some effective ways to
inform your children on safety issues while simultaneously instilling good security habits that will
stick with them for a lifetime.
Young Children
Toddlers and younger adolescent children can be taught a wide range of safety information they can
implement and accomplish with little to no difficulties. These include:
• Picking up toys around the house so they aren't tripping hazards
• Securing bicycles and other outside toys
• Learning how to lock deadbolt locks
• Knowing knives, scissors and other kitchen utensils are off limits without an adult
• Knowing that answering the door or phone can only happen with an adult present
• Taking extra caution in bathrooms,pools and other places with wet surfaces
• Learning the quickest path out of the house from wherever they are in the event of an
emergency
Nearly every event of a child's young life is a learning experience for them and a teaching
experience for parents. At this age, children respond to repetition and reinforcement of these and
other common sense approaches to safety and security. Take the time and make the effort to instruct
for optimal results.

Older Children
Older adolescents and"tweens" are more socially active today than their parents were at their age.
Unfortunately,their lack of real-world experience leaves them at a severe disadvantage compared to
those people who mean to harm them or otherwise exploit their naïveté.
In addition to the information above, children at this age should be thoroughly instructed on issues
including:
• Not divulging personal information on social media sites or in chat rooms
• Not posting family vacation plans on social media networks
• Not posting vacation photos online until you and your family return from the trip
• Not advertising when anyone is home alone or when parents are out for the evening
• Learning how to solve problems around the house, like how to douse a grease fire in the
kitchen
• Knowing how to turn off the water main and the main power to the house, if old enough
• How to arm and disarm the home security system
Children of this age need to be lovingly taught how to be safe online and in their homes. This age
group's willingness to publicly divulge private family information,paired with their lack of
understanding of the potential downside of letting strangers know these things, can lead to home
burglaries or other problematic scenarios you can do your part to help avoid.
Teenagers
In addition to all of the above information, you can add some home safety responsibility to the lives
of your teenagers. Teens can be responsible for arming and disarming home security systems,
including using smartphone and tablet apps provided by most home security companies. Teens can
also be helpful with teaching, instructing and encouraging the younger children in your home to be
as safe as they can and to think of security issues as often as possible.
Around the house, teens can be involved in the installation of a do-it-yourself home security system,
if that's what you decide to go with. Or, if you opt for a professionally monitored service, you can
have them be present when it's installed so they learn about potential security weaknesses, like
ground-level windows,unsecured garage doors and dark areas that need motion sensor lights on
you r ,erty.
