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.

U.S. Jobless Rate at 45 Year Low
(Source:Reuters)
The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits unexpectedly fell last week, dropping
to its lowest level in nearly 45 years as the labor market tightened further. Why is this good news
for wages?
• Competition for qualified candidates will
force employers to pay more in order to
attract and retain talent. UNEMPLOYMENT
• The labor market is very near "full immix
employment" and starting to put pressure
on wage growth.
• Strong wage growth usually leads to an increase in inflation as employer "pass along" the
wage increases to consumers in the form of higher prices for goods and services.

Preliminary Digital Flood Maps for Brevard County
Ready for Public Viewing
Attend Open House and Learn about Flood Risks in Your Community
DATELINE-Newly revised draft preliminary digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps for coastal areas
of Brevard County will be available for residents to review at two public open houses on Tuesday,
March 13, 2018 and Thursday, March 15, 2018.
Flood maps show the extent to which areas are at risk for flooding. When updated maps become
effective, they help determine flood insurance and building requirements.
Residents and property owners will have the opportunity to see the preliminary coastal maps,learn
about their risk of flooding, and ask questions about what the new maps will mean for their
property. Residents can meet one-on-one with specialists to discuss flood insurance, engineering,
building permits and more. Homeowners, business owners, renters, real estate agents, mortgage
lenders, surveyors, and insurance agents are encouraged to attend.
The open house dates, times and locations are:
Date: Tuesday,March 13, 2018
Time: 2:00 - 5:00 p.m.
Place: Brevard County Government Center
Building C, Second Floor(Space Coast Room)
2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way
Viera, FL 32940
Date: Thursday, March 15, 2018
Time: 4:00 - 7:00 p.m.
Place: Cocoa Beach Country Club (Main Dining Room)
5000 Tom Warriner Blvd.
Cocoa Beach, FL 32931
The new preliminary coastal maps were developed through a partnership between the communities
and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. They are based on updated modeling data and
show coastal flood hazards more accurately than older maps. The goal is to inform property owners
and the Community of their flood risks. Over time, flood risks change due to construction and
development, environmental changes, watershed conditions and other factors. Flood maps are
updated periodically to reflect these changes.
By law, federally regulated or insured mortgage lenders require flood insurance on buildings that
are located in areas at high risk of flooding. Standard homeowners',business owners', and renters'
insurance policies typically don't cover flood damage, so flood insurance is an important
consideration for everyone. Flood insurance policies can be purchased from any State-licensed
property and casualty insurance agent. Call the National Flood Insurance ProM ram's Help Center
at: (800) 427-4661 for more information.

54th Annual Space Coast Art Festival
After 53 years,the Space Coast Art Festival, Inc. Board of Directors has voted to change the dates
of the Annual Space Coast Art Festival. The 2018 Festival will take place Saturday and Sunday,
October 27th and 28th, in Manatee Sanctuary Park. This decision was made at the urging of
artists, vendors and patrons. The Space Coast Art Festival is a juried Master Fine Arts Show,
drawing artists from throughout the United States as well as Canada, Europe and Australia.
Originally held in the City of Cocoa Beach for its first fifty years, the Festival moved to Port
Canaveral in 2014 due to construction in downtown Cocoa Beach. Based on our long-standing
history as a premier cultural event City, the City of Cape Canaveral, in 2017, entered into an
agreement with the SCAF to hold the show in the City as they felt the Festival would enhance the
City's vision of supporting local culture and education. The City agreed that Manatee Sanctuary
Park would be a great fit not only because of its central location but also due to the possibility of
future growth, which would increase artists' space. SCAF recognizes Outstanding Artists with
cash awards. Artists exhibit at each festival in 10 different categories including Oils and Acrylics;
Watercolors; Drawings, Graphics, Collages, Printmaking and Paper; Clay; Sculpture;
Photography; Glass; Jewelry; Leather, Fiber & Wood; and Mixed Media. In conjunction with the
Festival, a Student Art Show is held featuring "Budding Artists" from Brevard County Schools
who are also competing for cash prize awards. Artists may apply, beginning March 1st for the
2018 Festival through Juried Art Services, Inc. (JAS) at juriedartservices.com through June 14,
2018. Brevard County Students may apply by accessing the Snace Coast Art Festival website and
downloading an application form. For additional information please e-mail SCAF at:
info@spacecoastartfestival.com or call (321) 784-3322.

champions, Innies and Outties,have taken over the first spot in the standings,but only Ilk,
by a very slim margin. The top two teams will face off this week and a clear first place ilk
will be decided. USSSA Certified Umpire, Rob will be the umpire officiating this
week's games.
Preventative Maintenance/Proiects
Due to our extremely corrosive environment, almost anything made out of metal that is exposed
to the weather corrodes - City park equipment is no different. Staff has an ongoing list of
preventative maintenance projects to ensure equipment lasts. This list includes periodic power
washing of playgrounds and metal structures, sanding,priming and repainting as well as replacing
when the weather wins the battle. This week,basketball hoops at Canaveral City Park were treated
and a corroded grill was replaced at Manatee Sanctuary Park. After several requests were received
by residents for added grills to Banana River Park, a dual grill was added to meet this need. Dog
waste dispenser stations/bags were received and have started to be installed throughout City Parks.
