City Council Agenda Form
City Council Meeting Date: 0912112010
Subject: Deputy of the Month for August 2010
Department: Brevard County Sheriff's Office — Canaveral Precinct
Summary: During the months of July and August 2010, numerous businesses in the
City of Cape Canaveral, Rockledge, Malabar, Viera, West Melbourne, Cocoa Beach,
Cocoa, and the unincorporated area of Canaveral Groves were burglarized. The
suspects in these cases struck businesses that primarily dealt with cash transactions
and that could be compromised via the interruption of their security measures.
As a result of multiple cases originating in the City of Cape Canaveral, Agent Jennings
took it upon himself to reach out to numerous businesses and advised them of what
steps they could take to mitigate any potential losses during a burglary. This included
backing up their alarm systems and taking additional steps to harden their overall
security.
As a direct result of this intervention, a suspect was captured burglarizing a business
within the City of Cape Canaveral. A subsequent interview by Agent Jennings led to the
discovery of multiple other suspects that were involved in the other burglaries. Armed
with this information, Agent Jennings subsequently coordinated the issuing of
subpoenas, set-up electronic and physical surveillance and called for meetings with
other agents and detectives from the Rockledge Police Department. As the
investigation continued, Agent Jennings continued to press forward and authored a
court order and two search warrants. During the execution of the warrants, thousands
of dollars worth of currency, electronics, cameras and other valuables were recovered.
Agent Jennings hard work was instrumental in the successful closure of numerous
business burglaries throughout Brevard County. The innovative and proactive
techniques used by Agent Jennings to address the criminal activity were instrumental in
solving the crimes and bringing a sense of closure to the victims. Due to his tireless
work, a total of nearly twenty business burglaries were solved and a total of five
suspects were ultimately arrested. Each of these suspects was charged with multiple
counts of burglary, grand theft, conspiracy to commit burglary and other offenses.

REPORTS:
City Manager
Ms. Apperson reported the compilation of staff's evaluations of priorities. She requested
setting a date for a Workshop meeting to discuss the priorities in planning and
establishing a budget for the immediate year and planning for the years ahead. Council
reached consensus to hold a Workshop meeting to discuss the priorities on June
15th at 5:30PM. Ms. Apperson then articulated the City of Cocoa's projected water rate
hikes, 9% in July and 8% next January, and asked what the Council would like her to
report on their behalf when she attends Cocoa's Public Hearing on June 8th. Discussion
ensued and included the impact on the City of Cape Canaveral's budget, the size of and
reasons for the proposed rate increases, the impact on condominium owners, and
budgetary problems with changing rates mid -year. Council reached consensus to
have Ms. Apperson speak on their behalf at the upcoming City of Cocoa Public
Hearing on June 8fh to expand on her first point at the Hearing by adding the
specific impact the rate increase will have on condominium complexes, and to
ask the City of Cocoa if they can get Federal or State funding to help with their
costs.
Sheriffs Department
Commander Moros mentioned the possibility of entering into an interlocal agreement
with the unincorporated area known as Avon -by -the -Sea to provide law enforcement
services from the Cape Canaveral Precinct. Discussion ensued and included manpower
concerns, call loads, Cape Canaveral Precinct Deputies already responding to top
priority calls rather than Merritt Island Precinct Deputies, trying the interlocal agreement
for a year, and losing Port funding for the Cape Canaveral Precinct in the near -future.
Council reached consensus for the Sheriffs Office to continue the planning
stages of an interlocal agreement. Commander Moros then briefly mentioned the
Police Athletic League Flea Market at the next Friday Fest. Lieutenant Mike DeMorat
reported on beach vending and how the mean -high water line, or "wet sand" area of the
beach, falls under jurisdiction/ownership of the State of Florida, which has no
mechanism for enforcing laws relating to vendors on the wet sand. Discussion ensued

Page 3 of 7
and included exceptions to the mean -high water line jurisdictional issues and other
ways to enforce the vendor laws. City Attorney Garganase was requested to investigate

personnel in regards to this situation.

attorney was successful in getting Chase to pay for the repairs in addition to punitive
damages. However, there has been no permit filed at this time.
City Historian
Ray Osborne reported that the owners of 120 Oak Lane, who may want to sell their
property, have indicated that they would be willing to donate the historic 1920's
Chandler log cabin, located on the property, to the City. Discussion ensued and
included the cost of moving the cabin and the possible locations where it could be
placed. Council reached consensus to place this discussion as an agenda item for
a future meeting after more information has been gathered on preliminary figures
and more history of the structure. Mr. Osborne also mentioned a possible City
register of historic properties and an update on the Jeannie Day in June, including
Cocoa Beach having no proprietary rights on the event, withdrawing any notion that the
event will be an official City Council event, and that Mr. Osborne, himself, will take over
the event.
Public Works
Public Works Director Walter Bandish reported on Washington Avenue and its related
repair needs. Ms. Apperson stated that two other roads in question, Church Lane and
Columbia Drive, were found to be substantially sufficient in condition, a statement which
Mr. Bandish confirmed. Discussion in regards to Washington Avenue ensued and
included the conditions of the road, any possible recourse to fix the road, and amending
the agreements with Brewer Paving and the Ridgewood contractors. Council reached
consensus to have Ms. Apperson explore the cost of fixing Washington Avenue
along with quotes for the other two roads and using Brewer Paving as part of the
Ridgewood project and to schedule further discussion of this issue for later.

information on the concrete in the pipes, an eyewitness specifically identifying which
contractor's trucks were washing concrete into the pipes, a plan to send a letter of
demand to the contractor advising them of the repair work the City is going forward with,
asking for the contractor's insurance information, and to put them on notice to preserve
any and all evidence related to the situation. Council reached consensus to support
the letter of demand.
AUDIENCE TO BE HEARD:

17% over a six-month period and how much the residents of Avon -by -the -Sea would be
paying if they received police services from the Cape Canaveral Sheriffs Precinct. Ms.

Building Official Todd Morley reported that the Outdoor Entertainment Permit Fee is still
$500 per day per event, and that John Porter's weekly weekend Farmers Market has been
billed with each weekend being considered a separate event, ending up with the bill
standing at $5000. Council discussion ensued and included a proposal of the Council
forgiving or waiving fees to no more than $500 owed, whether forgiving or waiving of fees
is legally in the Council's ability, possible restructuring of the permit fees for the future, the

Business Tax License categories, and proposing an ordinance be created to resolve these
issues. A motion was made by Ms. Roberts and seconded by Mr. Hoog to forgive the

Randels; For; Ms: Roberts, Against and Ms. Walsh, For. Comments were received
from Mr. Bob Baugher, Tony Sasso, and Phill Laurien, in support of Mr. Porter
remaining on the Vision' Committee and the great work he has done to pull individuals
together to work for improvements along the A1A corridor from the Port south to Patrick
Air Force Base., Mr. Pindziak expressed his feelings on the issues that surround Mr.
Porter's service .on ,the Committee and why he feels Mr. Porter should be removed from
the Vision Committee. Discussion ensued and included whether there were two
separate issues, one. being Mr. Porter's service on the Committee and the issues
surrounding the property owned by Banana River LP at 6395 N. Atlantic Avenue, which
Mr. Porter is part owner in the Company; whether the property owner can act as his own
contractor, the need for workers compensation/general liability insurance of all
individuals working on the property; the property owners continued efforts to resolve the
Code Enforcement Issues; and the lack of progress on the building's repairs. Mr.
Schirtzinger expressed his feelings that these are two separate issues and encouraged
Council to allow Mr. Porter to remain on the Vision Committee as he was selected as
the Chair from among the members of the Vision Committee. During the discussion,

Mr. Hoog requested a consensus of the rest of the Council to have the City Attorney
investigate his questions about the owner doing work on the property as well as the
need for worker's compensation and general liability insurance for all workers. No clear
indication of a consensus was recorded by the City Clerk. Council Members Petsos,
Roberts and Walsh expressed their desire for Mr. Porter to remain on the Committee
and Council Members Hoog and Randels urged for removal from the Committee.
12. Recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Board that the City Council
direct staff to prepare an ordinance amending the City Code to add "assisted living
facilit)e' as an allowable use: Planning and Development Director Brown explained the
request and the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board to add Assisted
Living Facility as an allowable use within the City. Discussion included concerns over
the evacuation planning for this type of facility; the StateMandate and approval process
for an evacuation plan and the requirement for Brevard County Emergency
Management to also approve the evacuation:. plan. A motion was made by Ms.
Roberts, and seconded by Ms. Walsh, to have staff prepare an Ordinance
amending the Code to add Assisted Living Facility in ,the City. City Manager
Greene explained the work to prepare the Ordinance was proposed to be done by Mr.
Ringdahl's consultant and would also include information that will assist in the
development of Form Based Codes, the. Mixed Use Overlay District, as well as a
number of other items. He wanted to ensure the Council understood if Mr. Ringdahl's
project received approval after the Ordinance was created,, he was requesting a credit
toward fees in an amount equaling $18,450.00, which is 500/6 of the cost of the planning
work. Mr. Greene indicated this would make a giant leap forward in addressing many of
the items from the Visioning effort. He encouraged Council's support of this assistance,
as it will help to move these 'items forward in a timely manner. Mr. John Johanson
objected to having the ,developer. write the ordinance and felt City funds should not be
used on private development. Mr. Leo Nicholas did not support the proposal; as he felt
the developer was then expecting approval of his project. Mr. Greene clarified the
Developer is well aware the project still has to go through the approval process and
there are no guarantees. Council Member Petsos wanted to clarify that this Council is
not against an Assisted Living Facility. The motion carried unanimously with voting
as follows: Mr. Hoog, For; Mayor Pro Tem Petsos, For; Mayor Randels, For; Ms.
Roberts, For and Ms. Walsh, For.

Subject: Ordinance No. 13-2010, revising City Code Chapter 10, Article 111 (Outdoor
Entertainment Events)
Department: Community Development
Summary: At the 611110 City Council meeting, resident Joyce Hamilton stated that the
Ordinance may be too expensive for smaller events such as the Sun Seed Co -Op
Customer Appreciation Day event. Additionally, she stated that the fees imposed for a
recently held Farmer's Market were too costly. In response, City Council directed Staff
to create a two-tier fee schedule and investigate whether the Ordinance could be
administered by Staff.
This Ordinance revises the Outdoor Entertainment Event Code in the following ways:
1. Makes the Outdoor Entertainment Event Permit process administrative (Council
approval is not required),
2. The definition of an Outdoor Entertainment Event has been altered to provide a
more flexible qualification threshold.
Note: Resolution No. 2010-22 addresses fee revisions.
Requested Council Action: Approval at 15 reading.
Financial Impact: Currently, all events must pay a $500 application fee. This change
may increase revenue due to the more palatable rate. Through the years only one $500
event permit has been issued. All other event permits have received fee waivers. The
corresponding Fee Resolution may have a positive financial impact. The Resolution will
reduce the application fee to $250 for those events having less than 200 persons.
