City Manager Morley indicated the City does not have enough physical barriers to close all public parking in the City. Discussion ensued. Mayor Hoog opened public comment. Michael Corrigan, resident, property owner and disabled Veteran, expressed opposition to closing beach parking and would be stuck if closed. Dennis Griffin, business and property owner, suggested mandating face masks as a better way of keeping people safe from the virus. Patrick Campbell, resident, commented on poor sound quality, shared his opinion that a change in the procedures regarding emails restricts public participation and expressed beach -end parking should remain open. Debbie Ward, resident, expressed beach -end parking should remain open and encouraged educating the public on how to stay safe regarding COVID-19. Mary Pariseau, resident, expressed being opposed to opening beach -end parking in May, commented CDC guidelines are not being followed on the beach and indicated a plan should be implemented to keep all residents safe. Vicky Price, resident, expressed desire to close beach - end parking until a plan is developed to keep residents safe and suggested two law enforcement officers issue tickets on the beach and one officer patrol parking. Discussion ensued and included keeping residents safe, having a testing site in the City, the impact of traffic into City parks if parking is closed at the beach, distribution of face masks if needed, signage for people to follow guidelines, starting to see the effects of the virus and the increase of infections after Memorial Day, the severe effects of the virus should be enough to keep the beach -end parking closed, all parking should be closed if the beach -ends are and a suggestion to issue a proclamation strongly recommending wearing masks, social distancing and picking up trash. Canaveral Precinct Lieutenant Seigel commented on Precinct staffing levels, indicated a preference for not closing beach -end access parking and shared patrolling activities, procedures and issues dealt with during the period beach parking was closed in the City. Discussion ensued. Canaveral Precinct Commander Walters shared the challenges and costs of closing parking during the holiday weekend including difficulties in scheduling people to work and urged Council not to close beach - end access parking. City Manager Morley stated a Media Alert has been prepared for the press for whichever action the City Council takes. A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Brown, seconded by Council Member Raymond, to temporarily prohibit the use of public beach - end parking spaces within City rights -of -way for beach access to reduce the spread of COVID-19 Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The motion failed 2-3, with Mayor Hoog and Council Members Kellum and Morrison voting against. City Manager Morley read the draft Media Alert into the record.

Please review the sender's address. Report any suspicious mail by using the Phishalert button in Outlook. If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org Dear City Council members, We urge you to protect Cape Canaveral residents by closing the beach parking over the upcoming holiday weekend. The exponential increase in our local Covid-19 rates began shortly after the last holiday weekend and the astronaut launch. Out of towners crowding the beach make it difficult for residents to safely socially distance. Furthermore, it seems that the cars with out of state plates are the ones discarding trash into the streets. As homeowners, we need to weigh the risk of picking up potentially infected trash off of our yard, or leaving it there to blow around.

Please review the sender's address. Report any suspicious mail by using the Phishalert button in Outlook. If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org Therese and Gregory Zyhowski 425 Buchanan Ave Unit 506 Cape Canaveral, Florida 32920 July 1, 2020 Mayor Hoog and City Council of Cape Canaveral: To The Honorable Mayor Hoog and Cape Canaveral City Council Members: My husband and I are residents of Cape Canaveral and retired educators of high school students. We taught teenagers in a public school outside of Pittsburgh, PA for over 65 years combined. One thing that we learned over our successful careers as math teachers is that punishment for misdeeds does NOT work as well as encouraging and rewarding "good behavior". I had my share of "difficult" students, rebellious, angry, and very opposed to anyone trying to take their "freedoms" away from them. I was able to maintain discipline and get them to follow the rules by rewarding appropriate behavior, like being on time to class —for example, on random days, I gave tickets to students who came to class "on time". At the end of the grading period, I had a raffle for winners to get small prizes like cookies or candy. Of course, those with more tickets had more chances to win and thus, I had little trouble getting all students to my class on time. So, how does this apply to our current situation of getting adults to wear masks while in public indoor places? I understand the problems of mandating a rule and enforcing it. So, why not try a different approach? Why not an "all out" campaign to promote "good healthy behavior" in our city? Publicize this effort. Give incentives. This could be anything like tax breaks, free advertising around our city (news stories in print, facebook pages, newsletters from the council, local radio and tv, electronic signs around our city, etc....) for local business that encourage patrons to wear masks. They, in turn could use the same approach, advertise in their ads that they are encouraging masks, take touch free temperatures upon entering like the hospitals do, thank customers for wearing masks, or give small discounts or coupons for future purchases to customers who wear masks while shopping or using the services provided. i This is a "win -win" for all. Our businesses would not suffer by being closed down and people could safely support our economy and slow down the spread of COVID-19 at the same time. You could even adopt a slogan —Make the Cape Healthy or Help America be Healthy Again (HAHA), red , white and blue hat The possibilities are endless and left to those who are more creative than this retired math teacher. In conclusion, have the "good behavior" people encourage the "bad behavior" people to change. This worked well in a classroom of 30 teenagers. It got to the point where those that were difficult became the minority and the ones who wanted to learn policed them without my having to do it. Sincerely, Therese and Gregory Zyhowski I am an active member of the Library Advisory Board (chairperson) , owner of a condo in Cape Canaveral and a rental unit in Cocoa Beach (Ola Grande condos). I am also Secretary of my Sand Dunes Condo Association and my husband , Greg Zyhowski is the treasurer of the Ola Grande Condo Association. I am sending this on behalf of my husband and myself.

If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org I agree that it is too late to restrict beach parking in Cape Canaveral for this weekend. However, the Sheriff's office (which has been doing a great job!) needs to be more assertive on large gatherings on the the beach. I continue to see large groups on the the beach.

If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org So we are back again discussing closing the beach access. What exactly is the problem you are trying to solve? From the last round I heard "the people parking there are not residents", Raymond said take the bus or better yet she would take people to the beach. But no one spoke to the actual problem taking away the parking would solve. If it is to reduce COVID exposure how could resident or not, taking the bus or piling in Raymond's car lessen the exposure. Are you concerned that people will park and stay gathered together at the parking site? If it is a non-resident issue brainstorm a bunch of ways to keep the pesky non-residents out of our city. Let's issue resident window stickers and establish resident only parking. You could vote to ban non-residents from the city all together. Could it be we don't want people on the beach. If so, just close the beach. If we want to limit people on the beach, patrol the beach and ensure people are doing the right thing. Could it be Brown's motion was out voted last time and he brings it back this time to make a point not progress. Define the problem before you jump to the solution. Clearly connect the problem to the proposed solution. Leave the parking alone and use your time on other important issues in the city. What about masks and social distancing in public places, what about a testing center in Cape Canaveral, encourage people to stay home, restrict gatherings, avoid eating or drinking in bars, restaurants, and food courts — use drive-thru, pickup, or delivery options and advertise common sense and personal responsibility. Parking is not the problem. Patrick Campbell Florida has a very broad public records law.

Many of us have already made plans to go to the beach and enjoy our holiday. Closing the beach would be wrong to do after all we have already been through with this virus. I just ask you consider my request. This has been the only thing we have been looking forward to do since being on locked down.

Please review the sender's address. Report any suspicious mail by using the Phishalert button in Outlook. If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org To Whom It May Concern, I am against closing the beach parking for the following reasons: 1. Limitation of Police Presence in other areas and Aggravation of Reserved Parking locations — Myself and numerous neighbors witnessed an increased police presence to enforce illegal parking within the neighborhoods and/or streets. In addition, in order to avoid any possible tickets/notices, transient crowds tend to park in deeded parking spaces at condo and apartment complexes when they become desperate... which then resulted in more calls to enforcement and/or towing. In addition, once illegal parking begins in an area, it's almost impossible to stop it from repeatedly happen; I've witnessed at our residence near Cherie Down the same song and dance to happen in regards to police kicking people out, leaving, and new persons parking at the same location. 2. Vehicular Congestion — We had ample notice last time we closed beach parking, this time... not so much. If we close beach parking, a lot of the transient crowd will not know the parking is closed until they get in the area. A lot of our single way streets (namely the first row housing areas) will become heavily congested, if not parking lots. We actually witnessed someone park 'off the street' in one location, however didn't provide enough space for a garbage truck to pass by; this garbage truck was forced to turn around, however had to approach each car behind them to move/adjust so they could perform the maneuver. 3. Disabled Residents — A lot of our local residents, while living close to the beach, count on having the beach parking and handicap accesses open so they can enjoy the beach. There are numerous other reasons to keep beach parking open, but these are my quick thoughts and experiences. I believe our efforts should be more focused on minimizing large groups of people from gathering on the beach in close proximity.

If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org We would like to strongly encourage the city to block parking at the beach for the July 4th weekend to preclude the mass of out of town visitors congregating on the beach and at local businesses. With the growing Covid-19 infections throughout the state as well as the county, we should discourage large groups from congregating here in Cape Canaveral. The large increase in infections even in Cape Canaveral are very disturbing, particularly with the large number of vulnerable residents. We would also like to encourage the City to ask the County to close Cherie Down park for the same reason and ask the Sheriff to increase enforcement of parking violations and fireworks violations.

If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org I will try to call in, but I might still be working and be unable to do more than listen. I was opposed to re -opening beach parking back in May. One main reason was that you did not have a plan for re -opening. You all just seemed to try to make it up as you went along. Making plans up like that does not instill confidence in your leadership. And I still believe that beach parking should be closed. The main issue, that while most people do social distance on the beach at the neighborhood beach access, the closer you get to Jetty Park and Cherrie Down the more people do not social distance. I have personally seen this past week, a group of 20+ with young kids gathered on the beach at Jetty Park. Also this past week, there was a wedding party that gathered on the Harbor Heights beach access blocking it from being used while they took wedding pictures. Luckily we do have the other access right there, but my point is that people only follow "no gathering" when it is convenient to them. If the City Council would have addressed the issue as soon as confirmed cases started going up in Cape Canaveral, we would not have the situation of the media saying that the Brevard Beaches are open, when Cape Canaveral may close the parking. As of yesterday, we were at 34 cases, which is an increase of 32 cases in a couple of weeks. I do not want to deny other Cape Canaveral residents of being able to enjoy the beach, but a solution to that should have already been considered by City Council. It's been over 3 months since beach parking was closed the first time. The first thing that comes to my mind, would be City -issued parking stickers. That way you could close parking to non-residents, but residents could still go. I know that isn't a solution for now, but something to consider for the future. For now, maybe there are residents that have extra parking spaces that they would be willing to share with residents that can't walk to the beach from their home.

As a resident at 425 Buchanan Ave, right next door to one, I hope that you will agree to temporarily prohibit the use of such parking. During the last holiday weekend, (Memorial Day), my husband and I watched from our balcony while large groups of over 20 or more congregated right in front of us with no social distancing. We watched the council meeting that decided this and heard promises that groups would be policed to keep them distant. In addition, we witnessed people who were relieving themselves and defecating on the dunes right in front of us. We did see police vehicles patrolling the beach; however, with the large crowds, it was near impossible for them to police everything. The picture that I attached was taken on May 27; but, this is the way it was during the whole Memorial weekend. In conclusion, we need to protect our citizens and our businesses. If nothing is done to at least keep down the large crowds at our beaches during this coming holiday, we will see another surge of sickness and possible deaths two weeks from now. I hope you will consider the wishes of the voters. Sincerely, Terry and Greg Zyhowski Sand Dunes Residents 425 Buchanan Ave Cape Canaveral, Florida 32920 Florida has a very broad public records law.

The numbers are way up. Beachgoers don't just use the beach. They use our restaurants, gas stations, supermarkets and convenience stores. BCSO can enforce parking laws and ticket anyone illegally parking. It's unfair to the citizens of Cape Canaveral to feel under siege all weekend long to appease out-of-towners and some business interests. Bets Crockett Florida has a very broad public records law.

Please review the sender's address. Report any suspicious mail by using the Phishalert button in Outlook. If that is not possible forward the suspicious mail to phishalert@cityofcapecanaveral.org Dear Council Members: We are writing to support your efforts to close beach parking for the holiday weekend. While we respect the arguments against doing this, we think it is a responsible action to close parking and discourage large groups congregating on and off the beach in light of the dramatic increase in Covid-19 cases. Why would we want to import people - especially from the Orange/Osceola area that are experiencing dramatic increase in cases - to the City of Cape Canaveral? It would be illogical in terms of protecting the health and safety of the residents and taxpayers of the City. It's important that we recognize and accept the fact cases are spiking, the virus is deadly to many of our residents, and if we make responsible policy decisions now, we will all be safe and able to get back to regular order.
