Home My WebLink AboutRe Cape Canaveral - Wave VillageHi Dave, Would you please email me the initial proposed development agreement that was sent on November 14, 2018, and the black lined proposed revisions the City sent back to them on February 21, 2019, from the referenced on the second page of the attached letter?

Among other things, Ms. Rezenka indicated that City Staff is not willing to bring the draft developer agreement before Council for consideration. In fact, what is happening is Mr. Gal is asking the Council to take actions not allowed by City Code. Attached is a letter dated May 21, 2019, from the City Attorney, to Ms. Rezenka that clearly indicates the City’s position on this matter. I want to direct your attention to the final sentence on page 1, which states: “As it stands now, your client is essentially asking the City to accept his initial draft of the development agreement, which is unacceptable to the City Manager and staff for a variety of reasons including the fact that some of your proposed terms (e.g., 65 foot height of buildings, signage variations) are ultra vires because they are inconsistent with the special zoning permit requirements set forth in the current City Code, and therefore, they are beyond the City’s current authority to approve or waive solely by development agreement.” In other words, the Council is being asked to act beyond its legal power or authority. Specifically, the initial draft of the development agreement included provisions to allow the proposed buildings be built to a height of 65 feet and additionally requested certain sign code variances that cannot be approved/waived by development agreement. As an example, construction to 65 feet is only authorized through approval of the City Community Appearance Board. Furthermore Mr. Garganese points out that “Under the circumstances, your draft agreement is not in an acceptable form to formally present to the City Council for consideration and approval. Again, I would encourage your client to reconsider his position and reengage in the negotiations with City staff to complete an acceptable draft agreement that can be appropriately presented to the City Council.” Page 2 of the May 15th letter provides a factual explanation of the discussions/negotiations between the parties to that point, while page 3 includes responses to a number of comments from Ms. Rezenka contained in an earlier letter on the matter. Despite several requests to Ms. Rezenka and Mr. Gal to continue negotiating an acceptable Development Agreement that could be considered by the Council, no response had been received until Tuesday night appearance before the Council. By asking the Council to direct the City Manager to move the initial draft of the DA forward, Mr. Gal is attempting to circumvent the required process and place the Council in a position not supported by Code. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter. Thank you.
