Community Development
Planning
Verizon Densification Project(Small Cell Towers)
Verizon Wireless is proposing to several locate small cell facilities in various parts of the City
(including Harbor Heights and Ridgewood Ave.). Each location will see the installation of a painted
metal pole, with an attached equipment cabinet. The poles will vary in height (32-35 ft.), depending on
the location.
This type of communications infrastructure will be new to the City of Cape Canaveral, so it is
important to note that telecommunication/wireless facilities are largely exempt from local (City)
zoning regulations due to the Advanced Wireless Infrastructure Deployment Act(CS/HB 687) signed
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
into law in June of 2017, and Chapter 2019-131 (SB 1000; effective July 1, 2019). These laws are
intended to treat providers of communications services in a non-discriminatory and neutral manner,
and provide access to public rights-of-way for the installation of new poles to accommodate
broadband infrastructure. Generally, the law prohibits:
"Municipalities and counties from adopting or enforcing certain ordinances, regulations, or
requirements[on communications services]; specifying limitations on municipal and county
authority to regulate and manage municipal and county roads or rights-of-way[relating to
communications services]. "
Additionally, while the law does allow for certain provisions to negotiate alternative placement and
design standards, prohibition of new utility poles that otherwise meet the requirements of the law may
not occur. With this in mind, it is important to note that Verizon's consultant submitted initial
proposed locations and after consulting with City Staff, agreed to negotiate alternative placement and
alternative design standards in order to lessen the visual and aesthetic impact on surrounding property
owners. As a result, the new proposed location has been moved closer to the tree line and does not
block or impede access to public or private property. Additionally, Verizon's consultant has agreed to
metal poles to hide related wiring as well as camouflaging that matches the City's existing green solar
light color. Visit the City's page dedicated to Code Changes to see the proposed locations.

New City Municipal Software
In an effort to improve technology, efficiency, revenues and customer support, the City will be
transitioning to a new software provider to improve the delivery of public services. With this in mind,
please note that during the week of August 26, 2019, the Community Development Department will be
transitioning to its new municipal software. Applications and permitting services may be temporarily
impacted so please be mindful and patient. If you have questions on how this may directly impact you,
contact City Hall at (321) 868-1220 (Ext.139).

Resilient Cape Canaveral (Vulnerability Analysis)
Funded by a grant from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection through their Florida
Resilient Coastlines Program—a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA)
approved program—the report created by the East Central Regional Planning Council examines the
impacts sea level rise and flooding in Cape Canaveral. The report employs several models developed
by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and NOAA to project possible sea level rise scenarios and the
respective impacts on the City. Timeframes evaluated as part of the report include 2040, 2070 and
2100, and models future sea level rise and its effect on storm surge.
To view the Resilient Cape Canaveral report, visit the City's sustainabilitv webnage.
Rezoning Project—Ongoing
As part of the larger City-initiated rezoning effort, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 15-2019
on August 20, 2019 to establish Public Use/Recreation and Conservation Zoning Districts. While these
districts are present in the City's Comprehensive Plan, they have never been defined in the City's
Code of Ordinances. The Districts will recognize existing public facilities, recreation and conservation
areas while also planning for the future. To view meetings, visit the City's official YouTube page.
Hurricane Irma: Resources Available for Residents
As we are in the 2019 hurricane season, we want to share the following resources with you. Because
Brevard County has been identified by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity(DEO) as
"most impacted or distressed" following Hurricane Irma, several resources may be available to you.
Rebuild Florida is a DEO program created to help Florida's long-term recovery efforts from the
devastating impacts of Hurricane Irma. The state of Florida is committed to helping homeowners,
small businesses and communities affected by this storm.
Two major programs are listed below.
• The Rebuild Florida Housing Repair and Replacement Program is helping eligible
homeowners impacted by Hurricane Irma by repairing, rebuilding or replacing damaged homes
across the hardest-hit communities.
• The Rebuild Florida Business Loan Fund, a resiliency loan fund provided through a
partnership with the U.S. Economic Development Administration, is assisting businesses that
experienced physical damage or economic injury from Hurricane Irma.
Building
• The Building Division conducted 39 inspections and completed 16 plan reviews. The Division
also processed 26 new building permits and applications and 21 payments for permits and BTR
applications that were picked up.
• Prepared for BS&A conversion to new permitting program.

Tree Permitting Requirements
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
The City of Cape Canaveral has been a tree City for 30 years, and Staff has made every attempt to
preserve healthy and native trees in the Community. Traditionally, City Code has required certain
actions from property owners prior to the removal of a tree. These requirements usually included an
application through permitting for all tree removal requests. However, this changed recently with
House Bill 1159 (effective July 1, 2019).
The Bill states that:
"A local government may not require a notice, application, approval,permit,fee, or mitigation
for the pruning, trimming, or removal of a tree on residential property if the property owner
obtains documentation from an arborist certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or
a Florida licensed landscape architect that the tree presents a danger to persons or property. A
local government may not require a property owner to replant a tree that was pruned, trimmed,
or removed in accordance with this section."
What this now means is that residential property owners do not have to apply for, or obtain a permit
through the City as long as they obtain documentation from a certified arborist or landscape architect
stating the tree they wish to remove is dangerous. In the past, a property owner was required to submit
an application for tree removal and the City's arborist would inspect the tree. If the tree was declared
dangerous (hazardous), Staff would issue a no fee permit and allow the property owner to remove the
tree. The most notable change is that HB 1159, allows residential property owners the ability to obtain
documentation from a certified or licensed specialist on their own instead of apply through the City.
With that in mind, the City will make every attempt to work with property owners regarding tree
removal, and if a property owner believes that a tree is dangerous and would like the City to assist or
has questions pertaining to the new Bill please contact Code Enforcement Officer, Brian Palmer at
(321) 868-1220 (Ext. 115).
Code Enforcement Case Status
In conjunction with Code Enforcement and Community Engagement Staff, developed a more efficient
reporting process for residents/parties to find the status of City Code Enforcement cases. The new
look, which will allow for easier tracking of cases,will be updated weekly and available on the City's
webpage. To check on the status of an item, visit: Code Enforcement Case List.

Sustainability + Community Engagement
Did you know we are now in the peak of hurricane season? #SadTrombone
Statistically speaking,August through October sees the highest amount of activity when it comes to
tropical cyclone formation; with September 10 being considered the climatological peak. The Atlantic
has several systems worth watching this coming week. It is a great reminder for us all that we should
be prepared for any possible storms. Some helpful tips to be prepared this hurricane season include:
• Make sure to have enough supplies to last you and your family at least a week(don't forget
pets)
• Have a full tank of gas for your car and generator or charge up your electric vehicle before a
storm approaches (www.plu2share.com/location/1417641
• Have a first aid and basic tool kit
• Be up to date on all needed medications
• Consider having a NOAA weather radio and follow the City on social media for updates
• Clear storm drains and debris from your gutters
• NEVER drive through flooded roadways or around barriers
• Have an evacuation plan if necessary
Please rely on dependable, official weather sources such as the National Hurricane Center or the local
National Weather Service (NWS) office in Melbourne for information regarding any tropical systems.

Summer of Space Mural being painted.
As the City's first Summer of Space celebration draws to an end, the inaugural mural project of the
Civic Scenery Program is finally becoming a reality. Last week, noted South Florida muralist Anon,
commenced work on the impressive 80 ft. by 23 ft. piece titled, "One Giant Leap for Mankind," on the
north wall of the racquetball court building at the Nancy Hanson Recreation Complex.
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
Paying homage to the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11 and the City's apodictic connection to the past,
present and future of space exploration, this will be Anon's 16th mural project. Since earning his
Bachelors of Fine Arts for Graphic Design from the Art Institute of Jacksonville in 2011,Anon has
made a name for himself throughout south Florida, and has participated in numerous public art
exhibitions throughout the state.
The mural is scheduled to be completed by August 30, 2019 and everyone is invited to come watch the
work in progress. The finished piece will be dedicated (7:00 p.m.) at the City of Cape Canaveral's
September 6, 2019 Friday Fest.
Cape Canaveral Public Library Book Club: Building Language,Building Community
The idea of a book club is nothing new. It's a fantastic social activity for those who enjoy reading but
the benefits of book clubs actually transcend those of just a casual past-time. In reality, they can be
tools that help build understanding and bring communities together by taking readers beyond their
usual literary comfort zones and into new and enlightening cultural landscapes. They allow readers to
come together and share what are sometimes widely differing interpretations of the same text—
exposing the many ways that personalities, tone, events and emotions can be perceived.
If you have never thought of book clubs like this, see for yourself! The Cape Canaveral Public Library
selects a different book each month and all are welcome to join the club for free. This Friday the
CCPL Book Club will meet at 10:00 a.m. to review this month's selection: "The Stars Are Fire,"by
Anita Shreve. To join in, contact Danelle at (321) 868-1101.
This is a great resource on the book club item: americanenglish.state.gov/files/ae/resource.
High Speed Train Headed Our Way
You may have been wondering about the construction activities along SR 528 and may know about
the Brightline Express Train line headed through Brevard County.
Staff attended a meeting hosted by the Brevard Public Information Network regarding the high speed
rail services planned linking of West Palm Beach to the Orlando airport. Although the completion is
still several years away, planning and preliminary construction are already underway! The train tracks
themselves will be built from south to north along the Florida East Coast Railway running parallel US
1 then turning westbound alongside SR 528 to the airport. Plans are to begin laying tracks in southern
Brevard County in the next 6 months! These 6-8 car passenger trains will be traveling at high speeds
using only vegetable based clean biodiesel. Their quietness is also attributed to the special tracks they
are built on. The planned 16 trains/day do not have freight so they do not use horns at crossings unless
an emergency occurs.
You can stay up-to-date with railway construction by visiting the Brightline Railroad Construction
page and clicking on Brevard County.
Rockets Galore
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
Within a span of about two weeks there have been three incredible rocket launches from Cape
Canaveral, further showcasing the ever growing launch cadence of the burgeoning space port. On
Tuesday, August 6, 2019 at 7:23 p.m. SpaceX launched the Israeli-owned Amos 17 communications
satellite aboard its Falcon 9 rocket. On Thursday, August 8,2019 at 6:13 a.m. (less than 36 hours later)
the United Launch Alliance (ULA) launched a $1.1 billion U.S. Air Force communications satellite
aboard its Atlas V rocket. And last Thursday on August 22, 2019 at 9:06 a.m., ULA again launched a
U.S. Air Force payload atop its Delta 4 - medium rocket, the rocket's final flight before retirement.
Officials who oversee the Eastern Range, which encompasses launches from both the Cape Canaveral
Air Force Station and the Kennedy Space Center, state that the space port is now ready to support up
to 48 launches a year. This could however increase even further! An environmental assessment put
forth recently by SpaceX for the continued redevelopment of historic Pad 39A to be able to support
their future Starship and Superheavy booster for interplanetary travel, states that the company expects
to launch up to 20 launches per year from the pad with an additional 50 from LC-40 down the coast by
2024! And those are just for Falcon launches... Starship and its Superheavy booster are expected to
make up another 24 launches on top of this from Pad 39A. If this holds true, we will soon see multiple
rocket launches per week gracing our skies. #Incredible.

Reading the Tides
#DidYouKnow the Cape Canaveral City Hall clock tower actually contains two different types of
clocks? A traditional analog clock for telling time, working on a 12-hour cycle with one hand for
hours and one for minutes, adorns the tower's southern side. On the tower's western side (facing SR
Al A) is a tide clock.
Used for decades by sailors, fishermen, surfers and beachgoers, tide clocks have only one hand with a
cycle of 12 hours and 25 minutes in order to coincide with the average time of about 6 hours and 12
minutes between high and low tides. A high tide is indicated when the clock's hand is at the "12
o'clock"position and a low tide is indicated when the hand is at the "6 o'clock"position.
So, when you see the tide clock indicating a 12 or 6 o'clock position, it does not mean that the time is
12 or 6 o'clock, but simply that a high or low tide is occurring beachside. The hour markings on the
dial between the high and low tide points show the number of hours since the last high or low tide, and
the hours before the next high or low tide.

The short answer to the basics of how tides work is this: high and low tides are caused by the Moon
and to a lesser degree, the Sun. The Moon's gravitational pull exerts a tidal force upon the Earth,
which causes itself and the water atop it to bulge outward on the side closest to and farthest from the
Moon. Wherever the bulge is present is a high tide, where it is not there is a low tide. As the Earth
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
rotates, our region of the world passes through both of these bulges each day, accounting for two high
and low tides, also known as semi-diurnal tides. Landmasses get in the way of tides being equal across
the planet however, making these bulges of water in reality uneven, hence why some locations
experience extreme differences between low and high tides while others do not.
What is the infamous "King Tide" everyone so often hears about?
A King Tide is the highest predicted high tide of the year at any given coastal location, being recorded
above the highest water level reached at high tide on an average day. It is also known as Perigean
Spring Tides. They are supposed to occur only once or twice a year and are predicted by the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA). Being unusually high, King Tides can bring
coastal flooding to low-lying areas throughout their duration, affecting beachside travel and
infrastructure. King Tides and their impacts are predicted to only get higher and more widespread as
sea level rise increases.
The City of Cape Canaveral's recently released Vulnerability Assessment, completed after months of
analysis and outreach by City Staff and the East Central Florida Regional Planning Council
(ECFRPC), highlights these rising tides in our area. Funded by a grant from the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection through their Florida Resilient Coastlines Program NOAA approved
program the report created by the ECFRPC examines the impacts of sea level rise and flooding
specifically in Cape Canaveral. The report employs several models developed by the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers and NOAA to project possible sea level rise scenarios and the respective socio-economic
impacts on the City. Timeframes evaluated as part of the report include 2040, 2070 and 2100. The
report also models future sea level rise and its effect on storm surge as well as coastal flooding.
To find the latest high and low tide times for our area visit NOAA and simply type the City's name
into the search bar in the websites upper left-hand corner.
Orlando H Garage Tour
Last Wednesday City Staff took the opportunity to tour the City of Orlando's H Garage and its many
sustainability and resiliency-based initiatives and infrastructure assets. This was done in order to better
understand how to implement similar capabilities within the City of Cape Canaveral and to build
relationships between each City's respective infrastructure Staff in an effort to encourage resource and
knowledge sharing.
Located several minutes from Orlando's downtown, the H Garage handles all of the City's vehicle
fleet maintenance and refueling needs. Given its name due to its distinctive shape, the facility holds a
420 kilowatts (kW)ballasted solar array that feeds energy back into the grid in order to make the
City's overall electricity generation cleaner and to reduce the buildings energy bills through the arrays
offsets. An additional array in the form of a covered canopy spanning the facility's center parking lot
slated to begin construction in the fall will add another 250 kW of electricity. This will make the
garage a net zero building, meaning the total amount of energy used by the building on an annual basis
is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created on the site; effectively allowing for little-
to-no energy cost.
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
Orlando currently has over 150 electric and hybrid vehicles in their City fleet, with another 100+
expected to be added by next year, including electric pickups. The H Garage will soon hold over 30
EV fast charging stations to support these vehicles. In the event of a power outage, vehicle to grid
power generation will also be experimented with. A number of the Orlando's larger vehicles, which
battery technology cannot yet efficiently support, are powered by concentrated natural gas or CNG
instead of diesel fuel. A local example of this can actually be seen in Waste Management's garbage
truck fleet. CNG refueling bays located around the perimeter of the H Garage allow for nightly fill ups
of these cleaner and quieter running trucks,which include the City's garbage truck fleet and grapple
trucks.
The building itself was also smart, allowing City officials to be able to spot problems before they turn
serious and monitor energy, HVAC and environmental stats in real time. Joining the garage's rooftop
solar array was a weather station, one of over a dozen placed across other City of Orlando facilities
that enable City Staff the ability to view weather conditions in their Emergency Operations Center in
real time to better determine when it is safe for emergency vehicles to venture out after major storms
for relief operations.

The City of Cape Canaveral is also pursuing sustainable infrastructure platforms such that these that fit
within the City's own needs for the goals of increasing its resilience against disasters, reducing
operations costs and reducing its environmental impacts. City Staff have begun the process of scoping
City facilities to determine suitable, appropriate and economically viable renewable energy generation
capabilities as well as transitioning its fleet to alternative fueled vehicles. Facilities of particular
interest to be switched to run off of renewable energy, both during normal operations and during
power outages, include: City Hall, the Fire Station, the Brevard County Sheriffs Office, the Water
Reclamation Facility(which serves as the City's Emergency Operations Center in the event of
disasters), and the future Multi-Generational Facility.

To date, the City has two 2019 Toyota RAV4 hybrids that each get 40+mpg in urban settings and one
fully electric 2017 Ford Focus that has over 100 miles of range, which has already saved hundreds of
dollars in fuel cost when compared to its gas counterpart. The 2020 fiscal year budget also calls for the
acquisition of another alternative fueled vehicle to replace the City's aging stormwater response
vehicle, which is currently a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan.

Leisure Services
Athletic Leagues
Kickball
Due to poor weather, the league has fallen behind schedule and the standings remain the same.
Graham's is still in the lead by virtue of point differential but they are being pushed by Who's Sober,
a team with only one loss. Even with a low point differential, GTR is only two games behind and
appears to have some momentum. The August 21, 2019 games ended with GTR losing to JT's by three
runs; Slide Inn losing to Graham's by 12 runs and Who's Sober edging over SOMB by 2 runs.
Hopefully this week is the beginning of nice weather and this league can gain momentum as we head
into fall.
Tennis
Monday tennis is currently in their playoff portion of the season. The Semi-Finals wrapped up this
week with John and Thorpe advancing to the Championship match. Both players are excited and it
looks like it will be a very good matchup based on how both of these players have played this season!
Wednesday tennis finally got a match in this week after four long weeks of weather cancellations.
Players will be able to make up games until September 18, 2019 before playoffs begin the following
week. It is looking like this can be anyone's year to win it! Thursday tennis looks to kick-off this week
with nine players! Gary, the returning Champ for Thursday Night, is coming back to continue his
undefeated streak. Gary has never lost a match in Cape Canaveral. Will this be the season someone
takes down the big fish? Gary looks to win another Championship and solidify himself as the King of
Cape Canaveral tennis!
Racquetball
Wednesday racquetball was finally able to resume their season as well, after four long weeks. They
had a couple good matches this week. Greg is still in the lead with a perfect 5-0 start and is hoping to
continue his perfect streak all the way to the Championship. Their season will be extended as well due
to the many weather cancellations.

ATM Safety
Automated teller machines (ATMs) can be found in a number of places these days; financial
institutions, shopping malls, convenience stores and even free-standing machines. When using an
ATM be very aware of your surroundings and follow these safety tips:
• Treat your ATM card like cash.
• Utilize an ATM located inside an open business whenever possible.
• At a drive-up ATM, remember to keep your car doors locked, your other car windows closed
and your car running.
• Avoid using a street ATM during night time hours.
• Try to avoid using an ATM by yourself
• Always pay close attention to the ATM and your surroundings. Don't select an ATM at the
corner of a building—corners create a blind spot. Use an ATM located near the center of a
building. Do your automated banking in a public, well-lighted location that is free of shrubbery
and decorative partitions or dividers.
• Maintain an awareness of your surroundings throughout the entire transaction. Be wary of
people trying to help you with ATM transactions. Be aware of anyone sitting in a parked car
Issue 31.19 of The Weekly Update August 26, 2019
nearby. When leaving an ATM make sure you are not being followed. If you are, call 911 to
notify law enforcement.
• Have your ATM card out of your wallet or purse before approaching the ATM. While you are
fumbling with a wallet or purse looking for your card, you become easy prey for a thief.
• Do not use an ATM that appears unusual looking or offers options with which you are not
familiar or comfortable.
• Do not allow people to look over your shoulder as you enter your PIN. Memorize your PIN;
never write it on the back of your card. Do not re-enter your PIN if the ATM eats your card—
contact a bank official.
• During your transaction look up and around every few seconds.
• Do not wear expensive jewelry or take other valuables to the ATM. This is an added incentive
to the assailant.
• Don't withdraw large amounts of cash.
• Secure your money at the ATM. Never count cash at the machine or in public; wait until you
are in your car or another secure place.
• Maintain a supply of deposit envelopes at home or in your car. Prepare all transaction
paperwork prior to your arrival at the ATM. This will minimize the amount of time spent at the
machine.
• Always take your receipt with you.
• Closely monitor your bank statements, as well as your balances, and immediately report any
problems to your bank.
• As you leave, be aware of anything suspicious. If you think you are being followed, go to an
area with a lot of people and call law enforcement.
• If you are involved in a confrontation with an assailant who demands your money, COMPLY.
Make mental notes about the robber and give the robber the money.
• Get away as soon as it is safe to do so. Remember the money is not worth getting hurt over.
• Report all robberies to law enforcement as soon as possible by calling 911.
• Report suspicious behavior. If you notice anything unusual, cancel your transaction,pocket
your card and leave immediately. Go to a safe place and call the law enforcement if you
suspect dangerous or illegal activity.
• If you lose, misplace or have your ATM card stolen, notify the card issuer immediately. If
unauthorized use occurs before you report it, the amount you can be held responsible for may
depend upon how quickly you report the loss of the card to the issuer.

City of Cape Canaveral
Fund Narrative
Period Ended July 31, 2019
Revenue
Ad Valorem Tax
To date, the City has received 101.6% of its ad valorem revenue. This amount reflects the current
and delinquent ad valorem.
Local Option Gas Tax
This amount represents an accrual for May and June based on actual collections for October
through April. Fiscal Year 2018-19 budget is slightly more than Fiscal Year 2017-18.
Franchise Fees, Utility Service Taxes and Communications Service Tax
This amount represents an accrual for June and July based on actual collections for October
through May. This revenue is below target at this point but hopefully this trend will improve.
Permits and Licenses
Permits and Licenses are above target at 111.9%. This is a direct result of an improved real estate
climate resulting in an increase in building permits.
State Shared Revenues
This amount represents an accrual for June and July based on actual collections for October
through May. This revenue source is slightly under target at 82.2%.
Garbage and Recycling Revenues
This amount represents collections for the months of October through July. This revenue line is
slightly under target at 82.0%. This revenue source, however, tends to fluctuate from month to
month.
Recreation Fees (Leisure Services)
Recreation Fees are above target at 89.1%. This revenue source will continue to thrive as the year
progresses and additional activities commence. Friday Fest continues to be a big success for the
City.
Investment Income
