Mr. Geletko replied to Mr. Nicholas that there were 5,000, 96- gallon carts left after county-
wide distribution. Mr. Nicholas stated that he attempted to obtain a 64- gallon cart for six
months since the %- gallon container distribution. Mr. Geletko said that in the future the
townhomes would receive one 54- and one 95-gallon container. He stated that the
company received many calls that two 95- gallon carts were too large. Mr. Nicholas stated
his disapproval rfth the cart system. He related that he received feedback that the trucks
were still performing a manual operation. Mr. Terrence Youmans, District Manager, stated
that two side -load trucks would begin pick -ups in the future. Mr. Geletko stated that when
people call for pick -ups, service occurs within 72- hours. Mr. Nicholas concluded that
residents need clarity on the pick -up schedule.
Mayor Randels stated that much of the problem originated from the residents in not
understanding how to apply the schedule. Mr. Geletko informed that the company
planned to perform a survey in February. He noted that the company received a 33
percent return in his most recent survey. Mr. Geletko stated that he believed that 91
percent of the respondents endorse the program. Mr. Nicholas noted that it was one year
or more since a dumpster enclosure was repaired. Mr. Geletko asked for the contact
information to personally address the problem.
Mr. Youmans stated that the program was new however the firm worked well with the City
staff, re- optimized its logistics and routes, and utilized its staff to address complaints and
was committed to a 24 -hour tumaround to address complaints. Mr. Youmans explained
the company mission as safety first, service and meeting people's needs. He informed
that one of the two new vehicles would service the area. Mayor Randels noted inferior
wheels on the carts. Mr. Geletko replied that the drivers carry extra wheels to make
repairs during their pick -ups.
Mayor Pro Tern Hoog expressed to see the company make pick -ups of items left behind
for several days. Mr. Youmans explained how the driver creates an internal ticket to
address any debris left behind. He informed that Mr. Darius Jones, Managing supervisor,
was primarily responsible for any issues from the dispatched internal ticket through to point
of customer satisfaction. Mr. Petsos suggested that the firm re- submit its information on
how to use the containers during its proposed survey in January. Mr. Geletko replied how
most information was discarded and people still placed green waste at the sidewalk
without a container.
Mr. Petsos questioned the status on recycling using one bin. Mr. Geletko replied that it
was merely a matter of configuring the equipment and expanded recycling could begin in
January to include telephone books, magazine, food boxes and junk mail. Mr. Geletko
informed that the full program would not reach that point until approximately 2010 in order
to distribute the capital cost of approximately $57 million over four years. He also informed
that the new trucks would replace the older vehicles. Mr. Geletko affirmed for Mayor
Randels that no rate increase would occur. Jeff Ratliff, Storm water Administrator,
requested that the company be cognizant of the stormwater inlets that were costly to
replace and recommended that the drivers make a wider turn.

Ms. Roberts referred to the truck leaking hydraulic fuel. Mr. Youmans replied that the truck
in question was removed from primary route collection. Mr. Bill Campbell noted that on
Ridgewood Avenue there was minimal turnaround access that required the driver to back
up and subsequently run over the storm drains. Mr. Boucher stated that after months of
public education the process was gaining momentum and the concern calls were
diminishing. He concluded that he has seen the cart program's improvement.. Mr. veletko
replied that he appreciated the city Manger's feedback to the Corporate Survey and the
information reached David Steiner, Waste Management's Chief Executive officer. Mr.
veletko informed that the driver's appreciated the side -load trucks that prevent a
significant amount of injury and also provide incentive for new recruits. Mayor Pro Tem
Hoog commented that the service has improved; however, there were dumpster driver's
who speed on the Presidential streets and also on some drivers enter the City before
6 A.M.
No action was taken on this item,
17. Motion to Approve: Change order Request for the Preliminary Design of the
Buchanan/Orange Avenues Drainage Project in the Amount of $8,500.
Jeff Ratliff, Stormwater Administrator, informed of a miscalculation and addressed the
validity of the request. The city Engineer was present for any technical questions. Mr.
Ratliff stated that the City's Engineers completed the construction e drawings for the Orange
9
and Buchanan Avenues intersection at the cost of $7,924. Mr. Ratliff stated further that
the project was expanded to an entire city block. Mr. Ratliff stated further that he was
seeking a total of $16,424; however, the $7,924 was already completed in Task Four.
He explained that the original project that was inclusive of Orange and Buchanan
Avenues; however, the project was extended to include Orange to Lincoln Avenues. He
clarified that the drainage box was located at Buchanan Avenue.
Mr. Ratliff stated that the City Engineer had some new ideas to address the inlets at
Lincoln Avenue. John Pekar, city Engineer, explained that two drainage situations
existed. He stated that first, four culverts conflicted each other, created turbulence and
created head loss at the Buchanan outfall and reduced the capacity to the downstream
pipe. second, he pointed out the limited capacity at the two inlets at one to two cubic feet
per second (cfs) . He stated that the new boxes would meet 7 to 10 cfs. Mr. Pekar
explained how even a small storm would create problems. He explained the P lan to install
larger boxes, remove the turbulence, create larger culverts, and change the inlet boxes to
reduce the flow to 42 and direct the flow to the baffle boxes. Mr. Pekar explained how the
system drains from state Road A1A. He informed that the project was funded through
Brevard County.
Mr. Nicholas stated that the system was installed in the mid- 1969's and he q uestioned if
there were other drainage problems as well. Mr. Pekar affirmed that there were many
older lines throughout the city Mat would be identified through the Geographical
9
Photographic system. 'Mr. Pekar replied that due to the smaller line culverts sir linin

was not feasible. He stated that the City standard was a 10 -year design for storms, for
example, a 10 -year year frequency for a 24 -hour storm which equates to a 7.9 inch storm.
Mr. Ratliff: stated that the system in the Presidential streets, built in the early 1900's had
little problem with flooding. He commented on the intent to televise many lines to identify
potential problems. Mr. Pekar stated that a proactive measure toward water quality helped
to divert tons of pollutants from the Banana River through the program. He responded to
Mayor Randels that the rain water would not meet at the drainage points at the same tune.
Mr. Ratliff noted that Council did not approve the previous cost of $7,924 for Task 1V.
He explained that there were two funding mechanisms: a Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) available now and a Federal Emergency Management Act funds, however
availability was unknown. Mayor Randels clarified that the FEMA funding, estimated at
$193,000, would cover 75 percent of the project. Mayor Pro Tem Hoog questioned a two
Phase project and securing funds with no project timeline. Mr. Gardulski replied that
Brevard County was bidding the CDBG portion of Buchanan and Orange Avenues project.
Mr. Gardulski replied that the engineering drawings were necessary to obtain the CDBG
and for the FEMA grant. Mayor Randels clarified that the CDBG of $'100,090 was
awarded; however the FEMA grant was conditional and suggested completing the project
and then seeking the FEMA grant. Mr. Ratliff informed that FEMA would not supply
funding for a completed project. Mr. Petsos suggested notifying FEMA that the design
was in progress.
A motion was made by Mr. Nicholas and seconded by Mr. Petsos to Approve the
Change order Request for the Preliminary Design of the Buchanan /orange Avenues
Drainage Project in the Amount of $8,600. The vote on the motion carried 5-0 with
noting as follows: Mayor Pro Tom Hoog, For; Mr. Nicholas, For; Mr. Petsos, For;
Mayor Randels, For and Ms. Roberts, For.
18. Motion to Approve: Proposal to Update the Redevelopment Plan by Miller
Legg in the Amount of $8,935.
Mr. Boucher stated that the request needed fund appropriation. Todd Peetz, City Planner,
informed that the Redevelopment Plan was last done in 1 999 and should be performed to
keep the Redevelopment Plan current. Mr. Petsos asked if the Board could perform the
Plan after the Business Survey. Mr. Peetz stated that the existing conditions could be
performed now and complete the Goals after receiving the Survey results. One of the
Business and Cultural Development Boards goals was to include the Redevelopment
Plan information in the Planning and Zoning Board's Evaluation and Appraisal Report. Mr.
Peetz noted that any evolving changes could be added. Ms. Roberts stated that the
Council would benefit from seeing the Business and Cultural Development Board's most
recent efforts which include a number of innovative ideas. Mr. Peetz related that the new
Redevelopment document stated more definitive goals and were not just guidelines. Mr.
Anderson concluded that he did not choose to hold up the Evaluation and Appraisal
Report for the Business Survey.
