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.

Visit www.citvofcanecanaveral.ore/hurricane Community Engagement Memo TO: David Greene, City Manager FROM: Joshua Surprenant, Community Engagement Director DATE: August 31, 2018 RE: Website update for increased transparency, web presence, Community communication and improved accessibility under the ADA and Rehabilitation Act The goal of a municipal website is to engage and inform its residents, visitors and stakeholders. In order to be more transparent and build on Community outreach via an increased web presence, it is important to ensure that the website is professional, easy to navigate and allows all residents including those with disabilities to locate pertinent information easily. Because local governments are constantly being asked to do more with less, the Internet plays an important role in allowing governments to better reach and serve its citizens. Since technology changes rapidly, web developers are using creative and innovative ways to present web-based materials. These changes may involve new and different access challenges, which require solutions for people with disabilities. Unfortunately, disabled individuals often face virtual barriers when accessing websites due to certain designs or features that are incompatible with various assistive technologies. Thus, a more accessible and comprehensive website experience is necessary. Recently, an increasing number of lawsuits have been filed against municipalities in regard to government websites that are not accessible in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Specifically, two lawsuits in Brevard County (Gil v. Brevard County and Price v. Brevard County) have been brought to the United States District Court Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division. These lawsuits allege violations of the ADA and the Rehabilitation Act related to the accessibility, or lack thereof, of government websites. Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act provides that "no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity."' Additionally, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act provides that qualified individuals with disabilities may not be excluded from participating in, be denied benefits of or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.2 Unfortunately, the degree to which a local government must make its website accessible is not well-settled, and while the Department of Justice previously planned to engage in rulemaking to adopt Title II web accessibility standards, notices of rulemaking were withdrawn in December 2017. However, there are steps that governments can take to make websites and documents on websites more accessible to those with disabilities. As such, it is recommended by the City attorney that the City establish and implement policies stating that the City's website will be made accessible and provide timelines to achieve accessibility. Each policy should be customized to address current and future planned website content. When accessible features that adhere to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) are built into websites, online municipal news and messaging is more convenient and more available to everyone, including users with disabilities. Websites that are visually appealing, functional and user friendly are vital to most Communities as a source of convenient and immediate information. Web designers can follow techniques developed by private and public organizations to make complex websites usable for everyone. For most modern websites, implementing accessibility features is not difficult, takes little time and will not affect the layout or appearance of web pages. Additionally, most of these websites have built-in accessible features or support ADA accessibility requirements through ADA coordinators as is the case with Islamorada, Village of Islands (Florida Keys)3. GovOffice, the City's current web developer and provider, has been utilized to the maximum extent possible and can no longer meet the needs or demands of the City, its residents and more up-to-date internet search engine optimization (SEO) standards. Based on this, City Staff contacted three companies — CivicPlus, Revize and Vision — to discuss needs and estimated costs. Each of these companies is a popular choice for municipalities both regionally and nationally and has unique—yet similar—features, including user-friendly content management systems for providing high-quality, government-compliant web solutions. The following is a breakdown of prices and services: ' 42 U.S.C. § 12132. 2 29 U.S.C. § 794(a) 3 www.islamorada.fl.us/about us/ada accessibility_statement/index.php • Vision The five-year quote to use Vision totalled $53,309.00. The first year, costs would be $24,000.00 for a custom design and year one service fees. The average annual service fee for years two through five would be $7,300.00 covering software updates, support and hosting. • CivicPlus A five-year quote came to $38,550.00, but could increase depending on additional website modules. The custom design and year one cost would be $22,000.00 with annual service fees of $4,000.00 to cover hosting, a dedicated account manager and software updates. • Revize The five-year quote through Revize totalled $34,450.00. The cost for a custom design and year one totals $14,850.00. Annual service fees total $4,900.00 and go towards website health checks, unlimited storage, hosting, tech support, dedicated account manager, software updates, increased security (as local websites are increasingly targets of cyber threats) and a free website refresh during year five. The website health checks are meant to correct broken links, grammatical errors, style inconsistencies and most importantly, scan for ADA compliance. • GovOffice In comparison, the 2015 GovOffice custom website redesign cost totalled $13,245.00. Our annual fees with GovOffice are currently $1,300.00 for software updates, support and hosting. As earlier stated, the City has outgrown the capabilities of GovOffice, and the website is no longer meeting the needs of our Community and Staff. As previously mentioned, each company offers unique, yet similar, features. However, Revize stood out as the most impressive option and will provide the City with an improved, modernized and more accessible website. The service Revize provides is adaptable, so that the website can be customized as our Community changes and grows. With over 50 websites in the state of Florida alone, Revize will work closely with Staff to design and develop a dynamic and easy-to-use website tailored to the City of Cape Canaveral. Additional features include a citizen's communication center, web calendar, public service request, language translator, the ability to increase website font sizes for ease of readability, a citizens' engagement center, online bill pay, FAQs with anticipative search and built-in ADA compliance features that make the City's website more accessible. Additionally the City reserves the right to terminate the website management contract with Revize if any technical website issue cannot be resolved per the technical support escalation procedure described in the Revize sales agreement. Notably, as of today's date, respondents to the Cape Canaveral 2018 Community Survey have ranked the website as their most preferred means of contact and one of the most frequently used sources for information gathering. Additionally the City of Cape Canaveral website averages 28,000 hits a month, which could be greatly improved once the City is utilizing a service with enhanced SEO components. For these reasons, it would be in the best interest of the Community that the City of Cape Canaveral continue to invest in technology that continually adds new capabilities and features that enables Staff the ability to effectively communicate with key audiences, such as residents, stakeholders and visitors. The Community Engagement Director will answer any other website questions you may have. Please contact me at i.surnrenantncitvofcanecanaveral.or2 or(321) 868-1231.

The PA obligates SJRWMD to fund the habitat restoration activities in the western portion of the site. Staff is preparing a document to present to the owners of River Gardens condominiums regarding the City taking title to the westernmost 5.2 acres of their property. This property would also be clear cut of invasive species and native vegetation would be planted. City Staff met with the board of directors from Canaveral Bay Condominiums to discuss the City taking title to the westernmost portion of their property. If the board of directors approves, the City will prepare a document to present to the owners of Canaveral Bay Condominiums. The goals of the project are to improve the native habitat by reconnecting the existing mosquito ditches to the Banana River, removing invasive species and replanting native trees and mangroves.
