Chairperson McNeely read the agenda item for the record. Todd Peetz, City
Planner, explained that the City received an application from Cape Caribe to
expand 1.2 acres from R-3 residential to C-1 commercial to use for parking and
expand their water amenities. He advised that the remaining portion of the
amendment was to fill-in what was previously shown on the Future Land Use
Map as the proposed Ridgewood Avenue extension. He explained that
Ridgewood Avenue was a proposed roadway extension and was not a City right
of way, but exclusively owned by Cape Caribe. He noted that this amendment
was for only that portion of the proposed Ridgewood Avenue extension that was
located north of -Shorewood Drive. Therefore, the small scale comprehensive
plan amendment was a total of 1.95 acres.
Kohn Bennett and John Grandlich, Representatives of Cape Caribe, Inc. advised
that the small scale comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning would allow
them to expand their existing amenities and parking. He explained that future
plans included: 5 acres directly north of Coastal Fuels for a passive park and
three additional buildings, with the balconies facing North and West to act as a
noise buffer. Their future plans included reducing density by omitting 54 rooms,
which equaled 128 rooms less than what was allowed by the city code. They
met with property owners and board members from Shorewood, Solana Shores,
and Solana Lakes Associations. They had received favorable responses and
feedback from the residents. Councilwoman Roberts advised that she had
received favorable feedback from Solana Shores and Solana Lakes. Mr. Bennett
advised that the expansion would be consistent with the existing character of the
C-1 zoning area. They also plans to expand the liquor service and would be
submitting for an expansion of the existing special exceptions; and the area
would be limited to the use for recreation and parking only.
Harry Pearson made a motion to recommend approval with a binding contract
agreement to limit the use. Motion failed for lack of a second. Todd Peetz, City
Planner, advised that the development agreement should be done at the time of
site plan.
Residents of Solana Shores voiced concerns and made comments including: the
rezoning having significant differences between residential use and commercial
use; proposing a water park instead of a residential timeshare was a significant
change of use; complaints regarding the existing noise and music being too loud
without the expansion; the expansion would adversely effect the residential
properties; the City's Business and Cultural Development Board has
recommended that their be no more special exceptions granted; the rezoning
proposal would increase the existing noise level; when property owners call and

There was a letter submitted by a citizen in the audience that did not speak fluent
English. The letter was entered into the record and read by Board member John
Johanson. (The letter is attached and hereby made part of the record meeting
minutes.)
Mr. Bennett rebutted some of the comments. He explained that the property was
not close to Solana Shores. He advised that one of the proposed buildings
would act as a buffer, which was located at least 1,000 ft. away from any of the
Solana Shores buildings. Thick vegetation would be planted to act as a noise
buffer. He was surprised that a noise issue was brought up, because when they
met -with -the -residents no-one complained about noise. Mr. Bennett and Mr.
Grandlich agreed to look into the noise issue. Mr. Bennett advised that a band
plays at the north end of the existing deck area from 11:00 a.m. — 3:00 p.m. on
weekends. He stated that dispersing people over larger areas decreases the
amount of noise. Todd Peetz advised that the City would verify heavy vegetative
buffering during the site plan review.
Motion by Harry Pearson, seconded by Bea McNeely, to recommend approval of
Ordinance #02-2008, to City Council. Brief discussion followed. Vote on the
motion carried unanimously.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 8:16 p.m.

From: Barry Brown, Planning and Zoning Director
RE: December 12, 2008 LPA Meeting
The Planning and Zoning Board will be convening as the Local Planning Agency (LPA)
this Wednesday evening. The sole purpose of the meeting is to review and recommend
for adoption the 5 Year Schedule of Capital Improvements. Florida Statutes mandates
that every year local governments update their Capital Improvements Element including
the 5 Year Schedule of Capital Improvements.
We are going to update the body of the Capital Improvements Element next year as part
of the EAR based amendment process. However, we need to update the 5 Year
Schedule of Capital Improvements at this time so that we can continue to amend our
comprehensive plan. This is merely an administrative exercise, no policy direction is
being proposed with this update.
Our comprehensive plan establishes minimum level of service (los) standards for
certain public facilities and services such as sanitary sewer, solid waste, drainage,
potable water, parks and recreation, schools, and transportation. These adopted levels
of service must be maintained into the future. In order to determine if we will continue to
have capacity in these facilities in the future, population projections are prepared and a
basic public facilities capacity analysis is performed.
The LOS facilities for which the City is directly responsible: sanitary sewer, drainage,
and parks and recreation, all show capacity through the five year planning timeframe.
No capital improvement projects that would increase capacity are planned in the next
five years as shown in the 5 Year Capital Plan of the 2008-09 City Budget.
Potable water is supplied by the City of Cocoa and they are projected capacity through
2013. Brevard County provides for the disposal of solid waste and they also are
projecting capacity through the planning timeframe. School construction falls under the
purview of the Brevard County Public Schools and their School Facilities Construction
Plan has been approved by DCA.
All roads in the City for which minimum levels of service have been adopted are either
County maintained or State roadways. The projections in our EAR, prepared in 2007,
do not show any projected LOS issues.
E
An actual 5 year schedule of capital improvements has not been included in this packet,
but will be available Wednesday.
Please call me at the office 321 868-1223, cell 352 536-2738 or email brown-
cape@cfl.rr.com or barrybrn@earthlink.net if you have questions or comment.
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
Capital Improvements Element
Annual Update to the 5 Year Schedule of Capital Improvements
Public Facilities Capacity Analysis
According to Florida Statute, each city is required to annually update its Capital
Improvements Element and the Five Year Schedule of Capital Improvements. The City
prepared its Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) in 2007. Any proposed revisions to
the Capital Improvements Element as identified in the EAR will be made in 2009 as part
of the EAR based amendment submittals. However, the State requires that the 5 Year
Schedule of Capital Improvements be updated at this time or we will not be able to
amend our comp plan.
In order to determine if capital improvements are necessary to maintain adopted levels
of service, the following public facilities capacity analysis has been performed. Data
and Analysis as provided in the EAR have been used in the preparation of this analysis.
The City is directly responsible for the provision of sanitary sewer, stormwater/drainage,
and parks and recreation. As demonstrated in this analysis, no facilities for which the
City is responsible will experience a deficit in LOS during the five year timeframe of the
Schedule. Cocoa supplies potable water and Brevard County provides solid waste
disposal. Both have capacity beyond the planning period. Public Schools are the
responsibility of Brevard County Public Schools and their capital improvements plan has
been approved by the State. None of the roadways in the City are projected to exceed
capacity.
Sanitary Sewer
Adopted LOS is 118 gallons per person per day
Capacity is 1,800,000 gallons per day
2008 ®13,294 x 118 = 1,568,692 gpd
2013 - 14,321 x 118 = 1,689,878 gpd
No capacity issues are projected.
Stormwater/Drainage
All projects are required to meet SJRWMD standards for on-site water retention and
treatment.
Parks and Recreation
Adopted LOS for Parks is 2 acres/1000 population
Currently the City has 34 acres in Parks
2008 —13294/1000 = 13.29 * 2 = 26.6 acres to meet adopted LOS
2013 - 14321/1000 = 14.32 * 2 = 28.64 acres to meet adopted LOS

The City is projecting only modest gains in population over the next five years.
Given the economic recession, credit crunch, over built condo market, and the
number of units in foreclosure, residential construction has come to a halt.
The economy is not predicted to start turning around until 2010 and even
then it will grow slowly and the demand for new housing will likely grow
slowly as well. In addition, our area will be affected by the retirement of the
space shuttle and the lack of space activity before the Constellation program
is started. Therefore, we are projecting a 1.5% annual growth rate, the same
rate as the last two years.
