Subject: Proclamation designating January 2013 as National Human Trafficking
Awareness Month.
Department: Legislative
Summary: On September 2, 2012, more than 250 concerned state and, community
leaders and advocates attended the first Florida Children and Youth Cabinet Human
Trafficking Summit to learn about trafficking in Florida, what the state is doing to prevent
it and what people can do to help victims in their own communities. Another 300
individuals participated in the live online webcast of the event.
Human trafficking is modern-day slavery through forced labor and commercial sexual
exploitation. Statistics rank Florida as the third highest trafficking destination in the
country, and half of all trafficking victims are children. Across America, almost 300,000
youth are at risk of becoming victims of commercial sexual exploitation. Many are being
trafficked in our own communities.
The Governor's Office is seeking the support of all Florida Mayors to assist in
communicating information related to Human Trafficking Awareness. In preparation of
National Human Trafficking Awareness Month, a reading of the Governor's
Proclamation will occur on January 17, 2013 declaring January as Human Trafficking
Awareness Month.

for all unused, accrued sick leave. Employees leaving the City under other
circumstances (i.e., those who fail to give reasonable notice of resignation,

employee may request reimbursement for the additional leave during the
first pay period in December of the calendar year in which it is earned on a

whether or not an employee is eligible for three (3) additional annual leave
days or reimbursement as stated above.

employee or employee's immediate family may occur and the employee
will have to use sick leave to cover an unscheduled absence. Employees
who have more than three unscheduled absences from work in any ninety

Subject. Ordinance No. 01-2013; relating to the State Revolving Fund Program;
pursuant to Section 2.12(5) of the City Charter authorizing one or more loan
applications to be filed with the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection
in a total amount not to exceed eight million dollars for purposes of funding certain
wastewater and stormwater improvement projects; authorizing the loan agreement(s);

Department: Public Works Services
Summary: The City's existing State Revolving Fund (SRF) Program loans (2) with
Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) will be paid in full in January
and October 2016, thus making $650,000 available in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund.
Moneys from these two SRF Program loans were used to finance upgrades to the
Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) beginning in 1996; these upgrades were the first
large-scale improvements to the WWTP since initial construction in 1966.
In order to provide adequate funds to (1) improve several processes at the WWTP, (2)
replace/rehab equipment that is approaching (or is past) its estimated life span and (3)
construct numerous stormwater improvement projects, Staff is recommending the City
enter into one or more loan agreement(s) with FDEP for approximately $8 million from
the SRF Program. These funds will be used to plan, engineer and construct ten (10)
capital improvement projects as detailed in the City's Capital Improvement Program.
There are numerous benefits to obtaining an additional SRF Program loan(s) at this
time including the following:
• SRF Program loan interest rate of approximately 2.25% (20 -year term);
• Deferred maintenance has caused a backlog of stormwater and wastewater -
related improvement projects;
• Lower engineering and construction costs due to the downturn in State and
national economy;
• Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Program requires that the City continue to
construct stormwater-related improvements-,
• WWTP equipment (e.g., sludge belt press) is nearing its estimated maximum life
span;
• New/updated infrastructure will improve services to residents;
• Proposed capital improvement projects support the, Visioning process; and
• Proposed capital improvement projects are energy-efficient (e.g., oxidation ditch
redesign), benefit the environment (e.g., eliminating most discharges to the
Banana River) and contribute to the overall sustainability of the City.

Item No.
Subject: Ordinance No. 02-2013; amending Chapter 110, Zoning, of the Code of
Ordinances to repeal the Special Exception in the C-1 and C-2 Zoning Districts for
Commercial Establishments for the Storage or Parking of Recreational Vehicles,
Trailers and Trailerable Items,; amending the M-1 Zoning District regulations to make
Outside Storage a Principal Use; providing for the repeal of prior inconsistent

Summary: August 21, 2012 — The City Council discussed City Code Sec. 110-
334(c)(11), entitled: "Commercial Establishment for the Storage or Parking of
Recreational Vehicles, Trailers and Trailerable Items",
Council discussed the appropriateness of locating such establishments along SR AIIA.
By consensus, Council) requested Planning & Zoning Board Study the issue and return a
recommendation to the City Council,
August 22, 2012 — After discussion of the issue, the PZ Board directed staff to prepare
an ordinance prohibiting such establishments in the, C-1 District within 400 ft. of the
entire SR AlA roadway as well as all of Central Boulevard; and to change "Outside
Storage"' from a Special Exception to a Principal Use in the M-1 Industrial Zoning
District.
October 24, 2012 — P&Z Board reviewed a draft Ordinance and recommended that the
400 ft. setback from the identified roadways apply to the C-2 Zoning District as well.
Specific buffering and landscape requirements for this use were also discussed. The
Board directed Staff to bring a revised Ordinance back for further consideration,.
December 12, 2012, P&Z Board determined that the 400 ft. setback left only a few
possible locations in C-1 and C-2 for RV storage on AlA and Central. The Board also
did not want RV Storage located along North Atlantic Avenue and, therefore,
recommended prohibiting RV Storage in all of the C-1 and C-2 Zoning Districts outright,
rather than calling for a 400, ft. setback, In addition, the Board recommended changing
"Outside Storage" from a Special Exception to a Principal Use in M-1.
Staff supports P&Z's recommendation to prohibit storage of RVs, trailers, etc. in C-1
and C-2 Zoning Districts- however, the full ramifications of making outside storage a
Principal Use may not have been considered. While Staff can anticipate the type of
buffering and screening needed for storage of automobiles, RVs and trailers, etc.,
Outside Storage is potentially more encompassing, Outside Storage could include
shipping containers, construction equipment & supplies, or other uses that may require
additional buffering or screening than required by Code. Staff recommends that
Outside Storage remain a Special Exception. The Notice of Public Hearing was
published on January 3, 2011

Subject: Ordinance No, 03-2013; amending Chapter 110, Zoning, of the Code of
Ordinances related! to Commercial Parking Facilities in the AlA Economic Opportunity
Overlay District; providing for the repeal of prior inconsistent ordinances and
resolutions; incorporation into the Code; severability; and an effective date, first reading.
Department: Community and Economic Development
Summary: Prior to the adoption of the AIA Economic Opportunity Overlay District on
July 17, 2012, Commercial Parking Facilities were not allowed in the City. With the
adoption of the Overlay, Commercial Parking Facilities became a Special Exception
Use in the M-1 Zoning portion of the Overlay District.
Mr. Charles Pindziak drafted a letter dated August 20, 2012 requesting that
Commercial Parking Facilities be changed from a Special Exception to a Principal Use.
The Planning & Zoning Board discussed the request on October 24, 2012 and directed
Staff to draft an Ordinance making Commercial Parking Facilities a Principal Use and
provide screening and landscape requirements specific to this use. On December 12,
2012 the P&Z Board reviewed the proposed Ordinance and recommended approval.
Staff supports the Board's recommendation, but does not believe the language in the
Ordinance represents the intent of Staff or the Board for screening and landscaping. It
was the intent of Staff for the parking facility to be enclosed by fence or wall, but only
provide the landscape buffer where visible from public view. The Ordinance, as drafted,
requires a landscape buffer around the entire perimeter whether or not it is visible from
public view and only requires a wall or fence where visible from public view.

To Whom It May Concern:
(� AUG 2 0 2012 d
7 ,1:
The City Council of Cape Canaveral has indicated that they prefer a separate Commercial Parking
Zone that is not adjacent to the Astronaut/AIA corridor!. As a result, the Commercial Parking Zone has
been placed in its own area, the M1 area of the A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District in which the
parking will be more than 500 feet from the highway and will not be visible.
In the last City Council meeting of July 17, 2012, Barry Brown, the City Planner, did not want to
grant a permitted use for parking in this area, only by Special Exception (SE). His rationalization was to
have a buffer zone between the parking area and the adjacent property. But the city codes already
address the buffer zone between M1 zoning and adjacent properties, namely. Section 110-566 and 110-
567 which represent 2 pages of landscaping and screening between M1 zoning and adjacent areas.
This is redundant Placing a Special Exception (SE) on these properties creates an obstacle, a
hurdle and an annoyance together with a financial hardship on the property owners. To many, a Special
Exception is equivalent to "we don't want you to do what you are permitted to do with your property but if
you do what we want, we will give you a permit." This Special Exception (SE) designation for the
Commercial Parking in the M1 Overlay District adversely affects the marketability of the properties and
creates financial hardships and unnecessary redundancy in the application of the development process.
I request a review of this matter and a change to Permitted Use (P) rather than Special Exception
(SE) for Commercial Parking in the A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District
Very truly yours

Item No. 4
Subject: Resolution No. 2013-01; adopting a revised Investment Policy pursuant to
Section 218.415, Florida Statutes; providing for the repeal of prior inconsistent
resolutions and written Investment Policies, severability; and an effective date.
Department: Financial Services
Summary: Pursuant to Section 218.415, Florida Statutes, investment activity of a
municipality must be consistent with a written Investment Policy adopted by the City
Council or be conducted in accordance with the alternative investment guidelines set
forth in Section 218.415(17), Florida Statutes, The City Council previously elected to
adopt a written Investment Policy by Resolution No. 2001-24 and City Staff invests the
City's Public Funds in accordance with that written Policy. The City's current
Investment Policy was last amended in 2002 by Resolution No. 2002-25. The Florida
Legislature has amended Section 218,415, Florida Statutes, several times since the
City last updated its Investment Policy. Section 218.415(22), Florida Statutes, requires
the City's Auditor to report, as part of the Annual Audit, whether or not the City has
complied with Section 218.415. Based on this review, the City's Auditor previously
noted that although the City's Investments complied with the requirements of Section
218.415, the City's Investment Policy does not include all of the enumerated
requirements set forth in that Section. Therefore, the City's Auditor recommended that
the City Council update the City's Investment Policy. The City Council is now required
to update its Investment Policy if it desires to continue to maintain a written Investment
Policy for the City. Otherwise, the City's investments will be limited to only the
alternative investment guidelines set forth in Section 218.415(17), Florida Statutes,
which generally limits investments in Intergovernmental Investment Pools, high credit
quality Money Market Funds, interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts and
direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury.
City Staff recommends that the City Council continue its past practice of adopting a
written Investment Policy for the City and not rely solely on the alternative investment
guidelines in Section 218.415. This will give the City Council more flexibility, control and
oversight over the City's Investments. Therefore, consistent with Section 218.415, City
Staff has prepared a revised written Investment Policy for the City Council's
consideration. The proposed Investment Policy is structured to place the highest
priority on the safety of principal and liquidity of the City's Funds, The optimization of
investment returns shall be secondary to the requirements for safety and liquidity. The
Policy shall apply to Funds under the control of the City in excess of those required to
meet current expenses. In addition, City Staff believes that the proposed policies are
commensurate with the nature and size of the Public Funds within the City's custody.

the investment of public funds in excess of the amounts needed to meet current expenses,
which includes cash and investment balances of the City's Funds.
This policy does not apply to the investment of principal, interest, reserve, construction,
capitalized interest, redemption or escrow accounts created by Ordinance or Resolution
pursuant to the issuance of bonds where the investments are held by an authorized
depository.
III. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
Safety of Principal
The foremost objective of this Investment Policy is the safety of the principal of invested
funds. Investment transactions shall seek to keep capital losses to a minimum, whether
they are from securities defaults or erosion of market value.
Maintenance of Liquidity
The second highest priority is liquidity of Funds. The portfolios shall be managed in
such a manner that Funds are available to be liquidated to meet reasonably anticipated
cash flow requirements in an orderly manner.
Return on Investment
The third highest priority is income. Investments shall be undertaken with the objective
of attaining a satisfactory rate of return, taking into account investment risk constraints
and liquidity needs. Return on investment is of the least importance compared to the
safety and liquidity objectives described above. Investments are limited to relatively low
risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed.
IV. DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
The responsibility for providing oversight and direction in regard to the management of
the investment program resides with the Investment Committee. The Investment
Committee shall be established consisting of the City Manager, Assistant City Manager
and Finance Director. The Investment Committee shall meet periodically to review the
City's investment strategy.
The management responsibility for all City funds and investment transactions is
delegated to the City Manager. The Finance Director shall establish written procedures
for the operation of the Investment Program and a system of internal accounting and
administrative controls to regulate the activities of employees.
V. STANDARDS OF PRUDENCE
The standard of prudence to be used shall be the "Prudent Person" standard and shall be
applied in the context of managing the overall Investment Program. The Investment
Committee acting in accordance with written procedures and this Investment Policy and
exercising due diligence shall be relieved of any personal responsibility for an individual
security's credit risk or market price changes. The Prudent Person standard is as follows:
"Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then
prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the
management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment,
considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to
be derived from the investment."
VI. ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The City's staff involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business
activity that could conflict with proper execution of the Investment Program, or which
could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Also, employees
involved in the investment process shall disclose to the City any material financial
interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City, and they shall
further disclose any material personal financial/investment positions that could be related
to the performance of the City's Investment Program.
VII. INTERNAL CONTROLS AND INVESTMENT PROCEDURES
The Finance Director shall establish and maintain a written system of internal controls
and operational procedures. The system of internal controls shall be periodically
reviewed no less than once every three (3) years or whenever comments regarding the
controls are submitted to the City by Auditors. The review should be conducted by the
Investment Committee to assure proper functioning of the controls. The internal controls
should be designed to prevent losses of funds, which might arise from fraud, employee
error, and misrepresentation by third parties, or imprudent actions by employees.
2
No person may engage in an investment transaction except as authorized under the terms
of this Policy.
Independent Auditors, as a normal part of the Annual Audit of the City, shall conduct a
review of the system of internal controls to ensure compliance with policies and
procedures.
VIII. MATURITY AND LIQUIDITY REQUIREMENTS
To the extent possible, an attempt will be made to match investment maturities with
known cash needs and anticipated cash flow requirements. Investment maturities shall
not exceed five (5) years.
IX. AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS AND PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION
Investments should be made subject to the cash flow needs and such cash flows are
subject to revisions as market conditions and the City's needs change. However, when
the invested Funds are needed in whole or in part for the purpose originally intended or
for more optimal investments, the City Manager may sell the investment at the then -
prevailing market price and place the proceeds into the proper account.
The following are the investment requirements and allocation limits on security types,
issuers, and maturities, as established by the City. The Investment Committee shall have
the option to further restrict investment percentages from time to time based on market
conditions, risk and diversification investment strategies. The percentage allocation
requirements for investment types and issuers are calculated based on the market value of
each investment.

1. Chronology of Accessory Parking at Hotels Part A—
a. Historically commercial parking has been considered an accessory use to hotels.
b. On May 22, 2008 the Code Enforcement Board found Country Inn & Suites in
violation of Sections 110-492 Location of Spaces; 110-555 Paving of Vehicular
Areas; Sec. 70-71 Engaging in Business Without Paying a Tax; Sec. 110-339
Offstreet Parking and Access; and Sec. 110-446 Application of Performance
Standards, for allowing commercial parking on the grass.
c. On July 6, 2010, Ordinance No. 6-2010 was proposed to allow for Commercial
Parking Facilities in C-1, C-2, & M-1 Zoning Districts as a Special Exception. It
was unanimously denied by the City Council.
d. On September 22, 2011 Country Inn requested approval to construct the
remaining portion of the parking per the site plan approved on May 12, 2004. A
permit was issued on September 28, 2011.
e. Country Inn requested the use of asphalt millings for a surface for this portion of
their parking area. Staff agreed with the condition that the parking surface be
upgraded to a finished surface asphalt parking at the time the outparcel is
developed. All stormwater retention calculations and SJRWMD permitting
requirements were met at the time and the permit was completed on March 14,
2012.
2. Asphalt Millings as a Parking Surface.
a. A previous interpretation allowed asphalt millings to be used in lieu of asphalt
pavement. An interpretation reversal was made after the issuance of the permit
for the Country Inn parking lot. This interpretation reversal was made in
recognition of the Ordinance's definition of paving (below), which is limited to
21 specific products. These defined products are widely and generally known to
incorporate a "finished surface". Asphalt millings do not have a finished surface.
i. Sec. 110-1: Paving may consist of the following materials: macadam,
asphalt, tar, cement, concrete, pervious concrete, bricks, tile, pavestone,
1
tilestone, flags, flagstone, flagging, cobblestone, cobbles, curb, kerb,
curbstone, kerbstone, edgestone and curbing. All material must be
contained by a permanent border and properly maintained.
b. During the week of January 7, 2013 Staff contacted a local paving contractor
about the difference between Macadam paving and asphalt millings. Staff was
instructed that Macadam closely resembles traditional asphalt paving and has a
rolled, finished surface. More specifically: traditional asphalt paving contains
binders — asphalt cement or hot tar. These binders create an impervious surface
when they are heated and compression -rolled in a semi-liquid state. By contrast,
asphalt millings (the broken up surface of a finished asphalt paved surface)
contain "oxygenated" binders. Once asphalt is broken up into millings the
binders have been exposed to the atmosphere with chunks which may or may not
adhere to portions of the aggregate composition. When placed as a surface, these
millings create, for a time, a pervious material. Over time, heat and cold cycles
tend to melt some of the binding material into portions of the aggregate
composition. In this state, the material becomes functionally impervious in the
view of the SJRWMD. As such the District requires stormwater retention
engineering calculations. These oxygenated binders, are less effective than
"virgin" binders, and contain a compromised chemical composition affecting their
ability to bind. For this reason, many highway department guidelines limit the
percentage of recycled binders that can be present in asphalt pavement.
Further, Macadam is not widely used in modern paving. It is defined as: single -
sized aggregate layers of small stones, with a coating of binder as a cementing
agent. Alternatively, compacted subgrade of crushed granite or greenstone
designed to support the load, covered by a surface of light stone to absorb wear
and tear and shed water to the drainage ditches. In modern macadam construction,
crushed stone or gravel is placed on the compacted base course and bound
together with asphalt cement or hot tar. A third layer to fill the spaces is then
added and rolled. Cement -sand slurry is sometimes used as the binder.
In summary, Macadam has a finished surface.
3. Chronology of Accessory Parking at Hotels Part B —
In the Spring of 2011, Bob Baugher, owner of the Radisson approached the City about
additional commercial parking for the Radisson. Staff determined that only existing
paved parking on the hotel site could be used for commercial parking at that time.
Parking across S.R. AIA (8600 Astronaut Blvd.) was off-site and not allowed by Code to
be used for parking in association with the Radisson.
Subsequently in April 2012, Mr. Baugher approached the City about developing a Port of
Call facility at 8600 Astronaut Blvd. to include commercial parking in an early phase of
the project. It was determined that the proper mechanism would be a Development
Agreement.
2
The Economic Opportunity Overlay District was created on July 17, 2012. A Port of Call
facility was included as an allowable use subject to a Development Agreement.
A Development Agreement for the Port of Call facility at 8600 Astronaut Blvd. was
unanimously approved at the November 20, 2012 City Council meeting. This Agreement
authorizes a $20 Million improvement intended to transform one of our older vacant
buildings into a thriving hub of activity. It supports the goals of the CRA and the
Brownfields Program and was made in recognition of the need to plan for orderly growth
and development; to attract tourism; the Owner's desire to enhance the Property during
redevelopment by improving the existing older building and beautifying the property
consistent with the standards and requirements of the City's A 1 A Economic Opportunity
Overlay District; the City determined that the proposed redevelopment of the Property is
consistent with and furthers the City's goals of encouraging and creating tourism, and
creating attractive, functional and lasting buildings and places; and the proposed
redevelopment of the Property will add substantial value to the City's ad valorem tax base
and enhance and protect the commercial corridor and primary entrance to the City of
Cape Canaveral.
4. History of Yogi's request and Storage of RV's. Trailers and Trailerable Items
March 19, 2012 — Property owner, Mr. Yogeshkumar Patel (Yogi) received a fence
permit to enclose the rear yard portion of his property at 6870 N. Atlantic Ave. This
permit pre -dates the application for a Special Exception for the "Commercial
Establishment for the Storage or Parking of Recreational Vehicles, Trailers and
Trailerable Items."
May 10, 2012 — Application submitted and fee paid for Special Exception for
"Commercial Establishment for the Storage or Parking of Recreational Vehicles, Trailers
and Trailerable Items" per section 110-334(c)(11).
June 27, 2012 - P&Z meeting — issues identified and addressed: screening, access,
whether or not to pave parking area. Screening — 8 ft. fence between residential property
to the east and 6 ft. fence around remaining perimeter. Access — provide a minimum 45
ft. driveway from Johnson Avenue. Paving — Code calls for parking area to be paved per
Section 110-555. Paving of vehicular use areas.
"All commercial and industrial areas used for the display or parking of any and all types
of vehicles, boats or heavy construction equipment and all land upon which vehicles
traverse the property as a function of the primary use, including but not limited to drives,
parking, service and display areas, shall be paved." P&Z recommended approval of the
SE with conditions. Condition #7 — Storage area shall be paved and stormwater retention
provided. John Kabboord, representative for Yogi Patel, agreed to the Board's
recommended conditions.
July 26, 2012 — Board of Adjustment meeting to make final decision on SE and Variance
for fence setback. BOA approved Special Exception with same conditions and approved
3
fence variance as requested. Condition #7 — the entire area shall be paved and thus,
stormwater control be engineered to meet Code.
August 21, 2012 — The City Council discussed City Code Sec. 110-334(c)(11), entitled:
"Commercial Establishment for the Storage or Parking of Recreational Vehicles, Trailers
and Trailerable Items".
Council discussed the appropriateness of locating such establishments along SR AlA.
By consensus, Council requested Planning & Zoning Board study the issue and return a
recommendation to the City Council.
August 22, 2012 — After discussion of the issue, the P&Z Board directed staff to prepare
an ordinance prohibiting such establishments in the C-1 District within 400 ft. of the
entire SR AIA roadway as well as all of Central Boulevard; and to change "Outside
Storage" from a Special Exception to a Principal Use in the M-1 Industrial Zoning
District.
October 24, 2012 — P&Z Board reviewed a draft Ordinance and recommended that the
400 ft. setback from the identified roadways apply to the C-2 Zoning District as well.
Specific buffering and landscape requirements for this use were also discussed. The
Board directed Staff to bring a revised Ordinance back for further consideration.
December 12, 2012, P&Z Board determined that the 400 ft. setback left only a few
possible locations in C-1 and C-2 for RV storage on AIA and Central. The Board also
did not want RV Storage located along North Atlantic Avenue and, therefore,
recommended prohibiting RV Storage in all of the C-1 and C-2 Zoning Districts outright,
rather than calling for a 400 ft. setback. In addition, the Board recommended changing
"Outside Storage" from a Special Exception to a Principal Use in M-1.
5. History of Commercial Parking Facility and Pindziak Request
June 4, 2012 - P&Z Board recommended approval of the AIA Economic Opportunity
Overlay District with Commercial Parking Facility listed as a Special Exception. This
use was listed as a SE in order to identify specific screening and landscaping needs at
time the parking facility develops.
July 17, 2012 — Council adopts Ord. No. 11-2012 creating the A 1 A Economic
Opportunity Overlay District which allows for a Commercial Parking Facility. Prior to
the adoption of the AIA Economic Opportunity Overlay District, Commercial Parking
Facilities were not allowed in the City. With the adoption of the Overlay, Commercial
Parking Facilities became a Special Exception Use in the M-1 Zoning portion of the
Overlay District. At the meeting, Mr. Charles Pindziak requested that Commercial
Parking Facility be listed as a Principal Use, but Council adopted the Ordinance as
drafted.
4
August 20, 2012 - Mr. Charles Pindziak drafted a letter requesting that a Commercial
Parking Facility be changed from a Special Exception to a Principal Use.
October 24, 2012 - The Planning and Zoning Board discussed the request and directed
Staff to draft an ordinance making Commercial Parking Facility a Principal Use and
provide screening and landscape requirements specific to this use.
December 12, 2012 - P&Z Board reviewed the proposed Ordinance and recommended
approval.
Summary:
There is a historical "right" to have commercial parking as an accessory use to any
hotel.
Our Code intends for all parking surfaces to have a finished surface. Asphalt millings
do not have a finished surface.
By adoption: of the overlay, a commercial parking facility was allowed pursuant to an
approved Special Exception. Additionally, a Port of Call facility, to include
commercial parking, is allowable pursuant to a Development Agreement.
Yogi's Special Exception Request and Ord. No. 02-2013 — "Commercial Establishment
for the Storage or Parking of Recreational Vehicles, Trailers and Tiailerable Items"
per section 110-334(c)(11)" has no bearing on Commercial Parking, the Pot of Call
Development Agreement or development options which are available on Mr. Pindziak's
property. At any time after adoption of the overlay, Mr. Pindziak has had tine ability to
apply for a Special Exception for a Commercial Parking Facility.
