Goals and Action Plan Update
Capital 1998
1. Hand tools may be used without permitting. Power tools would require Florida Department of
Environmental Protection permitting. Consensus to proceed with inmate labor.
2. Already in 1997 to proceed. County to be approached for funding Avon-by-the-Sea area with
transportation impact fees.
3. Try a pilot area at City Hall, Recreation, Library area. If it works, expand to other areas (not
eliminating current street lights - similar to the Cove area).
4. Proceed with 150 trees.
5. Palms at beach end streets. Oaks to be placed next to older oleanders.

6. Earmark funds in budget to ensure a beautiful entrance to the city. Line item in capital budget
to reserve additional funds for the interchange area- $30,000 to $50,000 for the next five years.
Should be shown in budget to provide leverage for obtaining possible grants.
7. Need a long term local funding mechanism proposed by Mayor Porter. $.70 per passenger
legislation proposed; H.B. 103 received well also. H.B. 103 provides for all of the state, reason
for local funding need. Sanibel has spent $11M themselves and it is a trend for areas to not
depend solely on the federal government. Beachside parks should charge for beach
renourishment as well.
8. Proceed.
9. Pursue public access from Shorewood to Jetty Park. City Manager, Building Official and
Planning and Zoning Chair are currently aware to ensure future access is retained.
10. Non trailered, non-motorized boat launch area to be made available, possibly in the area of the
observation deck. The grant does not allow for a ramp. The area is intended for protecting the
manatees and educating the public. Promoting wind surfing, etc. could damage mangroves and
other shoreline vegetation. The 7 acres of the Banana River Park would be a more logical
location because it is designated as recreational.
11. Ongoing. The management plan was approved by the state, which is a five -year plan.
12. Consensus to proceed as soon as possible to develop the complex design, including making
Taylor a one -way street.
13. Same as #8
14. Proceed.
15. Proceed, including beach access issues. When new developments come in, city staff must
require a neighborhood park area. Consensus is that the northeast park is the most needed area
for a park. Other parks may be needed.
16. Ongoing.
17. Proceed with North Atlantic and beach ends. Should be planned for in the budget.
18. North Atlantic to George King Boulevard — landscaping and sidewalks
19. Computer Technology, $10,000 per year in budget annually to compound for future upgrades
