Planning & Zoning Board Meeting—June 13, 2019 at 6:00 p.m. The Planning & Zoning Board will meet to review the site plan for the City of Cape Canaveral Multi- Generational Facility (MGF) located at Canaveral City Park. Canaveral City Park is the most centrally located park in the City, and a recent needs study revealed deficiencies that exist at the Park relating to mobility and amenities to serve the Community. Outside of improved mobility within and around the Park, the following amenities were found to be desperately wanted by the Community: a multi- generational facility; a skate park; a splash pad; and additional design features that enhance the park to make it a more desirable space for residents and visitors of all ages. See below for building renderings. [Graphics/Drawing of Multi-Generational Facility.] Facade/elevation renderings of the Multi-Generational Facility for Canaveral City Park.

Issue 20.19 of The Weekly Update June 10, 2019 Proposed City Code/Land Use Chances Ordinance No. 10-2019 (Impact Fees*): The proposed change would shift costs from the general taxpayer to the developer at the building permit stage of a project. By shifting the collection timeline of impact fees (infrastructure and public services fees) to the building permit stage, and away from project completion stage, the City can better meet level of service requirements in the City's comprehensive plan and state concurrency management requirements by funding development impacts upfront. Currently, the City collects funds after project completion when the City issues a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) which means that the required impacts are funded through other City revenue sources such as ad-valorem property taxes. *Impact fees are payments required by local governments of new development for the purpose of providing new or expanded public capital facilities required to serve that development. The fees typically require cash payments in advance of the completion of development, are based on a methodology and calculation derived from the cost of the facility and the nature and size of the development, and are used to finance improvements offsite of but to the benefit of the development. (Source: American Planning Association) Ordinance No. 11-2019 (Code Enforcement Special Magistrate): The proposed ordinance builds on City Council wishes to improve current Code Enforcement tools which includes the recent adoption of the most current edition of the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) and the implementation of a Code Enforcement Special Magistrate. The Special Magistrate will be appointed by the Council and shall have the same status as an enforcement board to conduct code enforcement public hearings to better promote, protect, and improve the health, safety, and welfare of the Community and eliminate confusion on the code enforcement process. Rezoning Project Following the discussion/meeting held on May 9th, the Planning & Zoning Board will meet at a future date to make a formal recommendation to the City Council on the more than 700 properties within the City that are improved with a residential structure, but are zoned commercial. City Code prohibits residential structures in commercial zoning districts. These structures are considered nonconforming and should one of them be destroyed, restrictions associated with non-conforming properties would apply. For this reason, a long-term, comprehensive solution is proposed that will reclassify these structures as conforming so they are no longer subject to restrictions associated with non-conformities. Please also note that the rezoning process is not uncommon for most cities and typically occurs when development patterns or trends emerge within a community. Historically, the City of Cape Canaveral has updated its zoning map every few years,but has not updated the current zoning map since 2008.

Smart Solar Lights Are Here to Stay! [Picture of interview.] Our very own Zach Eichholz was interviewed about our solar light installations at all City bus stops. These lights are not only cost effective but are considered "smart" lights as they dim their power during low use hours to conserve energy. Our solar lights actively adapt to variable conditions to optimize reliability and performance. They offer an option that is much simpler and has significantly less impact on outdoor spaces by avoiding the need to trench for wires. This means lower installation costs, minimizes ongoing maintenance while providing high quality lighting. Share the knowledge - Tell at least one friend to read The Weekly Update! Issue 20.19 of The Weekly Update June 10, 2019 City Hurricane Preparation Underway [Picture of presenter/screen presentation.] The 2019 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1st! According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) this hurricane season could bring 9 to 15 named storms, 4 to 8 hurricanes and 2 to 4 of those hurricanes could reach the status ■ of major; meaning they are a category three or higher. The time for you and your family to prepare is now. !I The City of Cape Canaveral and its staff are taking steps to prepare now as well. City staff held the first of three Hurricane Preparedness and Recovery Plan training meetings to review and update its policies and procedures in regards to the City's overall storm readiness, response capabilities and recovery operations. City staff's mission before, during and after a storm is always one of safeguarding life, minimizing injuries, protecting municipal, commercial and personal property, ensuring an organized and effective response, and achieving the earliest possible return of services and operations. The most important thing the City wants you to remember is to always have a plan of action ready before a storm's arrival. Being on a barrier island, the City of Cape Canaveral is designated as a Zone A evacuation zone, meaning a mandatory evacuation is given when there is risk of a category two storm or higher impacting the County due to the potential of storm surge. If an evacuation order is given, please heed it and have a pre-planned place to stay as emergency services will not be able to reach you during a storm. Know where your local shelters are and if you have pets please make preparations for them as well. If you have pre-registered for a special needs shelter, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office will transport your pets to an animal friendly shelter for free with a simple phone call. You must bring your own supplies, including a cot, when taking refuge in a shelter. Be safe this hurricane season by following reliable news sources!

Staff is meeting with selected engineering design firms to finalize scopes of work and costs for several future projects funded by the State Revolving Fund (SRF) Program. Stormwater Replacement of Stormwater Inlets The City's contractor continues to replace 15 stormwater inlets throughout the City. Open-throat inlets are being replaced with Type "C" inlets which trap more debris and are less susceptible to damage from vehicles. This is part of a long-term maintenance project to replace all open-throat inlets in the City, where practical. Twenty inlets are replaced each fiscal year. Other Items of Local Interest Lone Point Road Estuary Park Project Removal of pepper trees and other invasives across the property is nearly complete. The survey of the northern property line of the City-owned site has been completed. Future project tasks at the site include: • June 2019: Inspect for pepper tree regrowth—treat with herbicide if necessary (ongoing); and • July 2019: Replant site with native tree species - the type of tree planted at each location will be determined by land elevation, presence of surface water, etc. — generally 20' x 20' centers (planning). Staff continues to work with St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) to obtain the two wetlands properties to the south of the City-owned site. The City would accept title to the properties from SJRWMD and perform the same scope of work as on the City-owned site. All three properties together would provide over 14 acres of protected wetlands along the Banana River. The mosquito ditches will also be reopened to allow for the unimpeded flow of surface water. The majority of these projects are funded by SJRWMD. Project updates are available in The Weekly Update, on the City web page and on City social media platforms.
