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.

Scholarship award of$1,000.00 and in 2015 was recognized as PAL's Boy of the Year,

the organization that helped him become
the leader he is today. Every year Max

the State who write an essay titled"What
PAL Means to You."Max presents the
winner of this essay contest with a
$500.00 check at the annual State of

• To take a friend along when they go to playgrounds, stores, movies, etc.
• To never walk or play alone outside at night.
• To come home before dark.
• If anyone in a car bothers them, turn and run in the opposite direction. It is not easy for a
car to change directions suddenly.
• When frightened, run to the nearest person they can find. Locate a sheriffs deputy or
police officer, a person working in a yard or a neighborhood house or store. While they
should always stay away from strangers who approach you, it is OK to ask an adult you do
not know for help.
• If a stranger tries to follow them on foot or tries to grab them, they should run away,
scream and make lots of noise. The last thing a dangerous stranger wants is a lot of
attention.

• Never play in deserted areas such as the woods, a parking lot, an alley, deserted buildings
or new construction.
• Always stick to the same safe route in traveling to and from school or a friend's house.
• Always try to play or walk with friend. It is safer and more fun.
• Never play or hang around in public areas like restrooms or elevators.
• Teach your children to walk confidently and stay alert to where they are and what is going
on around them.
• If something seems wrong or feels wrong, it's okay to say"NO"to an adult, even an adult
they know.
Teach Children How to Respond
How children respond to trouble will depend upon their ages and the particular circumstances
they encounter. More importantly, however, is whether a child knows what to do and where to go
when feeling threatened. How does your child react when approached by someone unfamiliar?
Even preschoolers can learn what to do and what not to do when confronted by a stranger.
Here are some tips:
• Avoid scare tactics. It can be upsetting for a child to feel she or he lives in a dangerous
world filled with strangers who are out to do her or him harm. It's far more helpful for her
or him to experience the world as basically a safe place. She or he just needs to know and
follow a few simple rules.
• Talk about what's OK. Tell her or him, "When you're with Mom or Dad and someone
you don't know says `hello' to you, it's nice to say `hello' back to them."
• Talk about what's not OK.You can tell your child that most people are nice and friendly
and want to help each other. But there are a few bad people who want to harm others. One
way you know them is if they ask you to go with them without telling your parents, your
teacher or your babysitter. Make sure your children know that their private parts are off
limits to any adult or older child. Let your child know that they can tell you anything and
that you will believe them. It is important that your child knows that there should be no
secrets, especially those involving an adult.

• Discuss strategies. "What can you do when a stranger tries to get you to come with him
or her? What can you say? Can you ask for help?" Together, make a list of the ideas you
come up with, like testing the stranger with a secret password, running away and yelling
"Fire," asking a nearby grownup to help you, looking for a police officer or going to the
nearest store, etc. Then choose the ones your child is most comfortable with.
• Role play. Play the part of a stranger who may seem friendly and innocent but really isn't:
"Hi, want to come to my house? I have a big bag of candy for you." "Your mother is in the
hospital, and she told me to come and get you and bring you to her." "I'm a modeling
agent and I think you could become a famous model."By rehearsing the scenario in
advance, you will have given your child the means and the confidence to protect himself
or herself if he or she is ever confronted with the real thing.
