CAPE CITY 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.

More Americans Without Health Insurance
The Commonwealth Fund Affordable Care Act Tracking Survey indicates consumers are
struggling to afford individual health insurance. The numbers are as follows:
#TheSpaceBetween Oceanside + RiversidesM
• The number of uninsured working-age adults—between 19 and 64—increased from
12.7% in 2016 to 15.5% in 2018.
• An estimated four million people have lost coverage since 2016.
• Lower-income adults defined as those living in households earning less than about
$30K for an individual and less than about $61K for a family of four saw uninsured
rates rise from 20.9% in 2016 to 25.7% in March 2018.
While employer-provided group health enrollment numbers remain level, employers know
that group health insurance premiums are negatively impacted when the number of uninsured
individuals increases. The cost of providing services to the uninsured are passed along in the
form of higher monthly insurance premiums and price hikes for services and prescriptions.
Medical providers will recoup their losses from those who can pay.
Highlights:
• Staff received an update on the City's pending negligence trip-and-fall suit from legal
defense provided through the City's risk management provider at the time of the alleged

renderings. He was instrumental in the development of the mural program in Lake Placid,
Florida and is known locally for his 22' x 36' mural"Paddling Our Wildlife Paradise" in
Titusville. Shortly after completing these paintings, Goodson accepted a position as the senior
artist for Sea World, where his talents will certainly thrive. Staff enjoyed collaborating with

Public Works Services
Update for Week Ending May 18, 2018
Staff performed day-to-day duties and responsibilities and assisted with various telephone and
walk-in requests from the public.
Water Reclamation Facility — Sanitary Sewer System
• Oxidation Ditch Rehabilitation Project
Full bypass operations from the oxidation ditch to the equalization basin were initiated on
January 29, 2018. The ditch was emptied and cleaned of sand, debris and sludge.
Structural analysis observed extensive damage to several of the concrete walkways along
the northern end of the ditch. Replacement of the walkways has been initiated. Other
ongoing activities include the installation of new mixers, weirs and other equipment prior
to placing the ditch back into service. The City received a warning letter from the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection(FDEP) concerning nutrient exceedances in
treated wastewater between June 2017 and January 2018. Staff submitted a response letter
noting that exceedances seem to be related to hurricane activity in 2017. Substantial
completion date is delayed until September 2018. Current project construction completion:
88%.
• Force Main #3 Replacement Project
The project includes the replacement of Force Main#3 located within several
right-of-ways in the north-central portion of the City. TB Landmark Construction, Inc. of
Jacksonville, Florida was the low bidder with a bid of$324,319.00. A revised route will
be used for the replacement force main, shortening the line distance by over 800 feet and
saving $30 to $40k in construction costs. A pre-construction meeting was held on May 3,
2018. The project will be initiated on or about May 29, 2018 and will include traffic lane
closures on Thurm Boulevard and W. Central Boulevard.

reduce construction costs by more than$350,000.00. Initial project tasks were begun. The
project may take up to 365 days to complete.

This project will armor the Banana River shoreline—approximately 1,400 linear feet—
adjacent to the Water Reclamation Facility. Mangroves located along the shoreline will
not be impacted but will be used as part of a living shoreline. The project will also include
relocating the western and southern portions of the security fence. The contractor
completed the placement of rocks along the shoreline. Security fence installation and
clean-up activities are in progress. The project should be completed in May 2018 and prior
to hurricane season. Current project construction completion: 92%.

to armor the Banana River shoreline at the following locations:

Current project construction completion: 100%.
#TheSpaceBetween Oceanside + RiversidesM
Miscellaneous
• Estuary Grant Property—Long Point Road
The St. Johns River Water Management District(SJRWMD) contacted the City to inquire
about using the western half of the City's property at the end of Long Point Road for
mitigation. The Florida Department of Transportation(FDOT) needs mitigation credits in
the area for the future widening of State Road(SR) 528 from I-95 to Port Canaveral. The
eastern half of the property will also be used for mitigation by a local developer. In
addition, SJRWMD would like to include the property to the south owned by River
Gardens Condominium. The goals of the project are to improve the native habitat by
reconnecting the existing mosquito ditches to the Banana River, removing pepper trees
and other invasive species and replanting native trees and mangroves. City Staff continues
to work with SJRWMD in performing initial project tasks.
