Transcript Partial transcript
Machine transcription of the meeting recording. The words are the recognizer's, except where a passage is marked as corrected or machine re-recognized; most have
not been checked against the audio, so words, numbers and names can be misheard.
It describes what was said. It cannot establish who voted how, an amount or an outcome — the City's
minutes do that (above).
A time links to its passage, and “Copy link” copies that link. “▶ Play” opens the recording at that moment, on YouTube, in a new tab.
569 suspect passage(s) marked in place.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 28 voices separated from the audio.
55 short machine repair(s) (59 word(s)) are labelled in place, with the original words beside them: an ordinary word was replaced only where two further machine readings agreed on a different one.
Checks run on this transcript: the recognizer's own warning signs, whether a voice was detected where the words are and a language review for likely mishearings.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 94.3% of 27,009 content words.
Dotted words (664 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
569 passages (18% of the words) are marked suspect: their words are not shown ("unclear audio") and support no statement: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ; the language review questioned them; or no voice was detected there.
Agreement between two machine readings is not verification.
Speakers were separated by voice. A plain name rests on evidence tied to that voice; “provisional” is a name from an earlier text-only pass and is not verified; “Speaker N” is an unidentified voice.
And now for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Thank you. Appreciate it.

He received his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of Illinois, his B.S. from UCLA, and he's serving as the Secretary of the Electrochemical Society. Thank you for being here.
It's an opportunity to think of it as an investment. So we'll ‸ all share that with you as it dwells the jobs and generations. Back in the 2010 timeframe, solar photovoltaics, it's actual cost,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:04:07–00:04:08 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
you might pay out of the wall. So to give you a flavor on this scale, today, residentially, we pay about 12 cents a kilowatt hour for solar. So you can see in 2010, residentially, you'd be paying 42 cents. Nobody in the right mind would be using solar.
all the way up there was too expensive. So that's why we used it up there. Okay. But in 2010, both the residential, the commercial, and the utility costs were all ‸ very high. You'll also notice that the difference between the residential at 42 cents versus 27 cents for the utility was a 15 cents difference. I'll remind you that the utilities purchase their power plants, generate the electricity from that, and then run it through transmission lines and distribution lines, and there's taxes associated with that, as well as the fact that they also have to make a profit on all that. We look at the 2016 numbers, and you can see it drops down to 18 cents, 13 cents for commercial, and 7 cents for utilities.
5.9 cents. So in 2010, it was way too expensive. In 2016, it was about equal. In 2017, it's about half the cost of what you're paying out of the wall. So I bought it then. I've been at
the best investment I can make. Now, let's look at that. You'll notice that the commercial dropped down to 4.6 cents at that particular time, too, ‸ on their rooftops. Those are examples of the cost. In the case of a commercial system, it depends a lot on the size you've got. 100 kilowatt, 200 kilowatt. As an example, Satellite Beach put 200 kilowatts on their city hall. Okay?

Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:06:21–00:06:22 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
even cheaper than my 4.6 cents. Okay, we move along. The utilities. Last year, electric utilities in the state of Florida were putting 75 megawatts. It's pretty big. A nuclear power plant, on the other hand, is 1,000 megawatts, so it's still much smaller than a nuclear power plant, but it's still pretty big. 500 acres worth of dirt you would use.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:06:41–00:06:43 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
That enables them to move the peak when the sun's coming out to when everybody goes home and runs their air conditioners. The utilities are printing money right now because they're putting solar fields everywhere
It has to outrun the slowest gazelle. Okay? We've already chewed up coal. It's gone. Oil sands are gone. Oil is going to convince you about electric cars and natural gas.
Flag: the recognizer flagged its own output; a language review questioned the wording · 00:07:20–00:07:22 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
So this is the photovoltaic installation, and those are in megawatts over there on the left. But you can see in 2010 to 2015, nothing. Things managed to occur in 2016. The utilities started to put in a lot.
2017, we put in more. The income tax credit was continuing, and that's an estimated number for 2018 all the way out to 2023. In this last year, FPL alone has blown this up because they're planning on putting in a gigawatt, which is 1,000 of those megawatts themselves, every year until the year 2030 because they're going to have 30 million panels and
little bit of yellow there, is that we're increasing. And we're actually increasing at a faster rate than the utilities. It is estimated in the United States by the year 2023, the customers will be buying just as much solar as the electric utilities do. ‸ In Florida,
We've got a ways to catch up. But that's going to happen, and it may be a break-even point by the year 2028. Okay. This just is a little blurb about the solar co-ops. We've had one here in Brevard. This is where several people come together, and sort of they end up buying in like a Chinese menu a la carte. From the contractor's perspective, that really lowers their
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:08:54–00:08:55 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
Their customer acquisition costs have gone down. And so if you go look at the solarunitedneighbors.org on the website, Florida, you'll find a lot of information about it. Councilwoman Lorraine Koss is very active in that group as well. I know she has solar on her roof as I did. And so I was a customer of the Brevard co-op that occurred before. I think we're having another one sometime in March that will be starting out, ‸ so people are interested in that. This is something you should look at. The number one fastest-growing job in the United States is solar
You should also be aware. There's about five times as many people ‸ install solar panels on roofs than there are on the utility scale one. So the jobs are all on your roof, not in that 500 acres, okay, that the utilities put up. So not only are you making a good investment, but you're employing your neighbors. So something to think about. This just shows you the salaries.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:09:57–00:10:00 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
continue to. ‸ You know, list number two is wind turbine technician. So renewable energy is taking off in the jobs and everywhere else. This just sort of shows you that the amount of solar workers in 2018 actually went down a little bit, but it's 159% increase from 2010. And the lower left, you can see here that the bulk of the jobs are in the residential and the non-residential. Each one of those solar installations is a custom job that requires a little bit more high tech.
you also look at a different, a change in paradigm. Our primary goal, as I said earlier, okay, is to not use energy. Imagine taking a dollar bill and lighting it with a match. That's what you do every time you turn on the light switch, any time you do any other kind of little things using energy to get in your car.
So we want to stop doing that, okay? If I have to do it, I want to use it locally rather than exporting money out of the state. And of course, I'd like it to be more renewable and more energy efficient. So we can operate our buildings with electricity from utility and rooftop solar. I'd still rather have you put more efficiency measures into your home because that increases the wealth of your house and you're not burning money. But we can also drive our cars on floor of electricity. And that's cheaper than gasoline today. The reality is anything that uses a fuel, the price goes up. Anything you dig out of the ground, cement, whatever, prices are always going up. Technology prices go down. They go down with scale. In addition to that, they also reduce our gas

So let me give you a little bit of, we'll do a little math exercise, okay? The average car on the road gets about 25 miles per gallon. And you can pick whatever price

Now there's all the other costs you do as well. Now an electric car that are coming out, and my Nissan Leaf, which is in the parking lot here, wasn't able to plug it in though, but I have a 150 mile range, so I didn't need to. Okay, all right? Because it did get plugged in at home, and I'll get to you why the benefit of that is in a second. But the 3.7 miles per kilowatt hour, and
was 12 and a half cents. When I divide that through, I get to 3.4. So comparing the 8 cents to $2 a gallon versus the 3.4 cents, you can see that's more than twice as much. So when I use electricity out of the wall, made in Florida, okay,
So if you think $2 a gallon is cheap, you're wrong. It's two times too expensive. Now, if you put solar on your roof, which is with, I was eligible for the income tax credit, so this is what I do, okay, I pay 4 cents a kilowatt hour. I'm paying the equivalent of 27 cents a gallon. So for the users who are still using gasoline, half of that money goes to foreign entities and then maybe other states, okay? I keep all the profit, all the labor, and all the money at home. I'm paying 27 cents a gallon to drive my car, all right? It's an interesting opportunity to look at that. Now, we want to talk about where the future are.
So what happens when we want to make electricity at night and even things of this? You'll look at this ‸ graph here. This is the gigawatt hours. That's the energy stored, okay, in the various devices.
So your iPhones and your cell phones and whatever else, okay, actually will hold more energy than all the stationary storage they're anticipating by 2030. But you'll notice there'll be 24 times as much energy storage in electric vehicles. Now, the electric vehicles are all on
customer side of the meter. So by 2023, you, the customer, are going to control your energy generation. Hopefully, you made your house more energy efficient. And you're going to have an energy storage device in your garage that does a pretty good job. And you've already paid for it because it's cheaper to drive than what you're doing today.
Now, this gets a little bit complicated, okay? This is about why it's a good internal rate of return. So ignore the bottom axis. Just look along the internal rate of return there where it has zero energy storage. So if I was to go ‸ out today and buy solar and put it on my roof, as I told you, it turns out it's zero kilowatt hours of battery there. You look up to the yellow line, you see that's about a 12.5% internal rate of return. Twice as good as the stock market. It's fixed for 25 years. So if you have $10,000 to invest, you've
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:15:19–00:15:21 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
Now, what happens if you choose to go ahead and add batteries? The black line there shows you the battery effectiveness. So for the average home in Florida, ‸ if I wanted to be able to use all the solar, I would put 9.35 kilowatts of solar on my roof. That would make all the electricity I'd need. I'd use the batteries to get me so I could ride through without the grid connected and so on and so forth.
way up there when I get out to 40 kilowatt hours of battery. Now, there is no business model for you to use a battery today. It just sits there. And if you were using it for reliability or when you lost power, you honestly hope you never use it. Same way I feel about my gasoline generator. I own it, but it's an insurance policy. I hope I never need it. Okay? It would be the same way with the battery. But the cost of the batteries are coming down. So
if I went ahead and bought a battery today, my 12.3% would drop down to its lowest, down to about 3%, you know, the cost of money, okay, by the time I got out to a 26
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:16:44–00:16:46 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
Another way to look at it is the Nissan Leaf that I drove here today has a 40 kilowatt hour battery in it. My car is already cheaper, better, faster than the car I used to own before. I already have the battery in my car to go ahead and satisfy resiliency problems. So you'll start seeing in the future, we really will do this vehicle to grid where the solar and the car can get you through anything.
The cost of electricity out of solar on your roof at home, you can't beat it. You got the money on the roof, do it. Commercial, it gets a little bit more complicated because there's something called demand charges. And you got to do some math to figure out whether it really lowers your overall electric bill. Solar displaces your energy, doesn't necessarily meet your demand charges. PV compared to PV

I myself have a five kilowatt gasoline generator that I can run my whole house on. And because I went out and purchased a very efficient air conditioner, I can actually even run the air conditioner on that. When you've got a cheap air conditioner, you can't do that. So I can keep my wife cool when we
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:18:26–00:18:27 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
And then vehicle to grid may be a good possibility for the future. So if I was the city, first thing I would be doing is be looking around all my buildings for energy efficiency upgrades. Instead of doing one big splashy PV installation,
I would measure them, measure the load data with the PV so you get really accurate data so future purchases you can do wisely and make them as wise as you can. I wouldn't be in a hurry to do this. You might want to consider ‸ installing a 10 kilowatt PV canopy with a couple of ‸ EV chargers, good PR.

And you can display all that energy information, okay, in real time for the public. With that, I'll close. This is a quote from Thomas Edison back in 1931, and he actually said this in the southern part of the state of Florida.
Harvey Firestone and Henry Ford, because they were really upset that the people that were really making the money were digging holes in the ground and pulling oil out instead of the technologies associated with cars.

we are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel. When we should be using nature's inexhaustible sources of energy. I'd put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power. I hope we don't have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that. Oil and coal keep existing. The reality is it'll be cheaper to keep it in the ground. Okay? And then with closing, solar on your roof and EV in your garage is where you put your money. It better return to the stock market and the jobs stay in Florida. Thank you.
Yeah, well, you can tell I like to talk. I consider myself a ‸ solar evangelist. ‸ So we'll see how that goes. Thank you very much. ‸ Thank you for coming out, sir. ‸ All right.
Okay. That was the last of our awards and presentations. So we're going to move on to our delegations. We have five minutes to expound on whatever it is you need to talk about. First up is Mr. Warren McGee. ‸ You can state your name and address when you come up, sir.

Yes. And on my cover letter, I explained that we want speed bumps, speed humps, but we understand ‸ the expense and whatnot, and so we wanted to try stop signs to see if they'll work. Maybe they'll work. Maybe they won't. But I do know this. I have a stop sign in front of my house,
I think that was a good idea for the city to come out there and put that stop sign up. But I don't think the city did a complete job, and that's why I'm here tonight, because in front of the museum, people slow down on Michigan, and then as soon as they get past that light, it's
and come in the other direction. When you get in front of the fire department, they're running about 40. Kind of ironic somebody sent me this ‸ video today. I don't like

I'm going to stand out there holding this sign, until I die if I have to to slow these cars down. And there's other people that will do the same thing. There's just not enough of us. So anyway, I guess I want to ask the city, will you put up another stop sign and give this thing an honest chance? I mean, or am I going to get a,

Yeah, they put the first stop sign up. And I believe there's been some monitoring. There's been some police trying to catch people going through that sign. So I guess what we do next.
Let me say this ‸ if I may. I understand and my neighbors understand you guys can't be there 24 seven. ‸ And that's the problem because when you're gone, they take off. I'm surprised there's not black marks in front of my house. I ‸ guess you guys know, I went on vacation. I'm glad I missed the first week ‸ of that town. But somebody came back, they ripped the signs out of the ground. You guys had to come back out and cement them in. So I don't know.

And I also got a problem with the homeless over in our old building that we have. It's going to be torn down sooner or later.

It also is right next door, it started anyway, to a building I built 32 years ago. The crosswalk that is located there on the corner of Derby and Brevard for over 30 years was brick. And that was an access route for the whole construction of all the Enderpoint condos.
There is no damage under that crosswalk that required that crosswalk now for that brick to be removed. When that was happening, I tried to get information about it, and the information I got was that they want to ‸ remove the brick, that again, no issues with it, and put tar down, cut the tar, stain it to make it look like brick. Now, this type of construction, you can go to Merritt Island, you can see it everywhere, and it does not last long. It requires more maintenance than the brick that was there to begin with,

cost to remove the material, heavy-duty equipment, a staff of about five or four people to do it. The material that they're removing can be reused. I don't know if that's happening. But if it's not broke, you don't fix it.
not only to pay to have it removed, but the cost of the material that's being removed, there's areas of the city that needs it badly. And one, for example, is the area between Florida Avenue and U.S. 1. It's also called
because the city was not watering them properly. I have them here that I can identify them and show exactly what streets they were planted on that are now no longer there. There. Somebody came from the city when I was doing some renovations on some of the property there with the sawzall,
area of the city for maintaining it. And that was the biggest concern at every meeting I went to for that neighborhood by the neighbors that have lived in that neighborhood for years. And what their concerns were is happening. There's no budget to maintain that area. There are two street lamps. One is across the street from property I've renovated that used to be known as a crack place. You drive in, you drive out 15 units. With that being said, there's a lamppost at 228 Orange Street that has not been replaced for an extended period of time. That's lighting. That's only 3,000. So the crosswalks that now I see in addition is at the end of Orange Street between Chase Bank and the Historic Society building could very easily, at $150 a tree,

That's something that could put back what we promised to that neighborhood that they were very concerned about from day one with no budget to maintain it. Even the street lights there, I had to add FPL lights to increase the lighting that we lost when we changed to the lighting we have now. Those bulbs can be increased to higher wattage. I'm just here to find out, as a builder, to me, I cannot, it doesn't sit with me well. And there's several other people that asked me to come and speak for them. One of them happens to be the ex-mayor that lives on the same street off of Derby.

All I'm saying is that I need to see if I'm overreacting or if this is something of concern for something that does not need any work done. If you've got money to burn, burn it where I suggested for an example. Somewhere in the city, 528, the landscaping there has died since the widening of the road. It's all over the city where it could be actually utilized. Thank you. Sorry.

Good evening, Mr. Mayor. Alan Chapman. Good evening. Executive Director of Historic Cocoa Village Association, 600 Florida Avenue, right here in the city of Cocoa. Thank you for the opportunity to speak this evening. I just want to talk to you very quickly about the upcoming art and craft fair. We have over 200 booths. We're up about 25% from previous years. As you may recall,

Our budget has been expanded for promotion, and I know we're competing with the Grand Seafood Festival as we always do, but I hope we're going to have a great weekend this weekend. It's Saturday 10 to 5, and Sunday 10 to 4, so please come out, bring your families, family friendly, pet friendly, as always in the village, of course. Another matter I'd like to speak to just briefly, ‸ Alex just mentioned, Mr. Greenwood, sorry, just mentioned some issues with paving. Throughout the village, we have a lot of ‸ paving stones down on sidewalks, and we do have some

would join other counties or other cities in Brevard and other counties in Florida and make a ban on allowing businesses to come into your city that would sell puppies that come from outside of a natural local breeder because unfortunately the majority come from puppy mills out of Pennsylvania and Ohio area. And it is really sad. It's not the puppies that we're trying to save. It is the moms and the dads of the puppies because puppy mills are very sad and disgusting places. And we have enough animals here that we're trying to find homes for so we really don't need anybody shipping them in from outside of our state. So we just ask that you would consider that as a requirement that you might want to get behind.
But West Melbourne as of late in the past few years has gone that route as has a couple of other cities in Brevard County and a number of counties. There's a very long list of them in the state of Florida who are now also banning it. Since we can't control them from bringing them in from the interest doing an interstate compact because that is a federal thing.

And this is something that the city of Coco does not have a problem with right now. So why not just prevent it from happening instead of waiting until it does happen and then having to have issues with people like the gentleman in Melbourne who has a pet shop that sells puppies that

We're going to move into our second item on the public hearing, and that's approve a preliminary subdivision consistent with Chapter 18 of the City of Cocoa Cove for London Cove
All right. So this item is, as you said, a preliminary subdivision entitled London Cove. The project has three parcels containing ‸ just under 19 acres. It's on the south side of 524, immediately west of Cocoa Commons.
And the property is currently vacant land. You can see here the subject site's in red. This is just south of 524 and just west of industry in that intersection. So a little background. The project was originally approved by the city in 2009. It had six commercial lots along the road frontage and 61 townhomes in the rear. Unfortunately, the recession came along and the project was not built. However, the applicant is here today. He's proposing to similarly subdivide the property into six commercial lots along 524 with one single residential parcel to the south.

Okay, so this is London Boulevard coming down. It'll offer entrance into the residential portion. All of this down here is the future residential development. These are, this is parcel A, and then there's B, C, D, E, and F across the top. This is an access road that would provide future

the southern side of that road is a, or will be, I should say, a buffer wall with landscaping to provide ‸ separation between these commercial lots and the future residential area. And then this polka dotted area to the south, that's the existing wetlands. And then that was actually, uh, uh,
the project was originally approved that through that process, we acquired all of that. It ‸ connects with, uh, cocoa conservation in terms of flow, uh, from the wetland areas.

So the next step, if approved, the preliminary subdivision, uh, will allow the developer to begin construction of the improvements to the site, um, provided all the conditions are met and that the final subdivision will have to be required, applied for within one year of the approval of this preliminary. Uh, the planning and zoning board recommended approval, uh, with conditions of the subdivision at its December 5th meeting 2018. Uh, some of those conditions have been addressed, uh,

One, all unresolved review comments from city of Cocoa staff or other reviewers on behalf of the city should be addressed prior to the final subdivision application being heard by city council unless an earlier deadline is established below.

And now I was very disappointed that this item actually came before the council without some of those items being corrected. I understand they weren't a part of the original code violations, but they're still existing right now. I,
just, you know, people buy these properties with these liens on them and, uh, I understand that, you know, you bring them up to par and that's fine and dandy, but you know what? I can't personally, uh, forgive liens on a piece of property ‸ until all violations or any violations on that property have been brought up to par. I mean, there's, there are
disc. Uh, so there's some issues that are probably should have been written up by code enforcement once they went out there and took some additional pictures. Uh, we have a lot of residents that are facing these issues right now with their homes. And, uh, but I think that if we're gonna enforce the rules, we need to enforce the rules across the board and hold everybody to that same standard. And, uh, I just think this item should come back. I would like to table this item and have it come back once those issues have been corrected. I support the code board and I know what they do.

You know, I was looking at this and I was thinking about this and I was thinking four hour ride along per month.

We have a planning and zoning board, our code boards and a board of adjustments. And, uh, a lot of those individuals come in and they get no other training other than what they're thrown, you know, they're thrown in there. And I don't think that, uh, they sit down and get talked to at all about what their responsibilities are. And I think to require for this committee

agree with Councilwoman Koss if you've never been out there and you don't really know what's going on, it not only change your perspective of what the police officers do, and it does that every time you go on a call with them. It also changes your perspective and changes what you see of our city. Most of us are only out running around the city in daylight or early evening hours and you don't necessarily see what goes on the rest of the time.
what our police department does and what our police officers do. And the only way they can do that is to have a good understanding of what our police officers deal with. So I have no objections to doing an initial four hours and then two hours a month because personally I think that once they've been out there for a few hours, you're probably going to find them out there more frequently than ‸ just a couple of hours. I mean, you get out there and you intend to stay an hour or two and you end up being out there six hours because there's a lot going on and

them and some, um, ‸ and they, um, and the chief and officers when there's some issues that, uh, that arise in our community that they, some of the community have, uh, some issues with or need to be addressed. So, um, this is not a deal where the officers are going to be told how to perform their job. They're ‸ professionals. They're trained to do this and they have to think that individuals would come in on the committee and tell them how to do their jobs.

powers. Uh, and I think that's, uh, ‸ that's a problem. I think a lot of people are getting confused about what this committee is, it's going to be about. And, uh, this is just to address some concerns of our residents and the citizens, um, when it comes to some issues that arise in our community, ‸ that's it. That's it.
think all of us know what police officers do, but I think as a volunteer, you know, to get out there and put in four hours, I think it's, it's crazy to a month. They require that. I think we're going to lose members. We're going to lose committee members. And, uh, it's going to defeat the purpose of this whole committee. And, uh, just once again, that's just my opinion.
no, I think that, I think that's great that they, you know, uh, I believe that four hours initial orientation is fine. And then maybe, um, your concern is after. Yeah. Afterwards. It's just, uh, just continuously. It can be, you know, I mean, what, what more are you going to get out there? Okay. You know,
‸ and you'll be in a meeting for several hours. And then I got to go ride for two hours and, you know, and I got a job and other stuff. And this is volunteer. I think it's a little bit much for volunteers.

Um, ‸ thinking that, uh, the other boards that we do have don't, don't require any. I think that's what you're getting at is that other boards that we have within the city don't require that.

Okay. Well, I'll tell you what the chairs, chairs gonna make a motion. I'm gonna make a motion that we, um, we approve this item, but with the certain modifications that we do the four hours initial ride with PD. Um, and then, um, after that, there will be no additional riding, but
Um, if there are new members that come on, whatever ‸ case might be. But, um, I think initially we need to just starting off, we'll do the four hours and then just see how it goes from there. And if we need to do some additional training or whatever, we'll do that. But, um, just, we need to just get this up and running and going without all this set of stuff.

Yes. Thank you. I'll just give a little background on this. The East Central Florida Regional, uh, Planning Council has an initiative to develop this resiliency action plan all along the, um, you know, in East Central Florida.
So this resolution will resolve us as a municipality to work in partnership with other municipalities and with the council, um, to see this happen. So let me go ahead and let me read the goals of it just to give people a sense rather than the whereas is which are, is that okay? That's right. The resolution? Yes. Um, so there are four sections which is where the goals are, are ‸ and the things that we will, then there are also 20 objectives. So these are all, if you go online, you can read these and then encourage you to, because these are the things that we want to work toward and our sustainability advisory committee is working on right now. Uh, ‸ promote leadership, education, and empowerment in government, public and private sectors to foster the implementation of resiliency strategies across disciplines and communities.

And section four is to create resilient communities by facilitating programs, opportunities, and community-wide education pertaining to local sustainability, disaster response, and climate change mitigation strategies.
to see more participant involvement in that and there will be more workshops in the future so I hope that people keep an eye open for that. So with that I would like to make a motion to pass this resolution.

Thank you Mr. Mayor. Members of council. You have the agenda item before you. I'd just like to provide a little bit of background to get you to this point where we find ourselves now. As prior action was taken on this item under the former council. And to ensure that all members are properly informed ‸ and understand the present situation that we find ourselves. As you may be aware. August 2018 of this past year. City staff was approached by Brevard County staff. As there was a request by some local area residents to meet. And discuss some safety related issues with McFarland Park. Now
On the east side of US 1. Just adjacent to the Indian River Lagoon. Provides access for boaters. Small vessel craft launching. And then there's also a picnic table where folks can. Enjoy ‸ the views of the river. Members approached the county initially for gate closure. As the park closes at dusk. The county staff began doing that. There were still security related issues. That were mentioned. To the city. As well as the county. At our joint meeting. And also at that meeting. The issue related to the. Ownership of McFarland Park. Was brought to our attention. Once learning this information. The city undertook a title search. To determine. The ownership of the park.
operation related to the park. The city and the county. And. Key to that discussion. Was the title search that was obtained by the city. For the park lot. And it revealed that the city had no recorded ownership interest in the property.

That's a. That's a very key distinction. And I want to make sure that. All members of council are fully aware that. You know. Whether it was in the 1950s 1960s. It doesn't necessarily matter. The present situation that we found ourselves in upon learning this. We were in the same situation back in 1924. There's. There's nothing that.

the city's historical use. Of the park property. City staff believes. That the cloud on title. Currently exists. Regarding the park property. So absent a successful. Court action by the city. The city should formally. Remove the existing cloud on title. By recommendation. Oh. Excuse me. Officially recognizing. That the city has no legal interest. In the park. As such city staff recommendation. Is that the status quo. Is not an acceptable arrangement. For the city. And the lot owners. Therefore under the circumstances.
And related legal options. The first option. Is to proceed as previously directed. By the city council on October 10th 2018. And proceed with the adoption of a resolution. Disclaiming any future city interest. In the park property. That resolution could be presented. To city council at a regular meeting. In the near future. And upon adoption of that resolution. That resolution would be recorded. In the official public records.

Is that a lot of the. Owners that purchased. In the subdivision. Were completely unaware. And their title searches didn't reveal. That they had. A plat dedication. To a public. Or to a ‸ park. In their neighborhood. As a result. The city will no longer. Be maintaining the park property. We've since. Abandoned that property. And I believe that. The entry gate. Is ‸ locked.

So that they can do something else. With the park. By us clearing. The cloud on the title. That will make. Whatever steps they take next. Easier for them. Like I said. If you know. Six months or a year from now. They come back and say. Hey. You know. We as a group. Have made this decision. And we want to. Lease it to the city. Or we want to give it to the city. Or whatever. I'm ‸ fine with that. But right now. I just think we need to do the right thing. By these residents. And clear this title. So that they can move forward. And make a decision. ‸ As a group of property owners.

the fact that there was no title found. For the city. I just want to get a clarification. Because my understanding. ‸ If in fact. This park. Is a quote plat easement. And there is no title. Okay. How can you say that anybody. City or otherwise. Owns the park. Since the developer of the park.

to have. And this I can tell you from experience is the kind of problem that a group of real estate lawyers will talk about over lunch and laugh about and maybe the one stuck with it will cry about. It's a complicated legal. situation. It's not unique though. This this plat reference is is is really not a for someone who examines title regularly it's not uncommon for the developer in plotting a piece of property retain the underlying fee simple title to a piece of property and then create rights in the residence for that piece of property might be for a park might be for.

We all have to keep in mind that this plat was done in 1924. It's actually pretty dang sophisticated for 1924. But no one should be surprised that there wasn't an ancillary deed to each of the residents in 1924. The fact of the matter is there's a clear intention of the the dedicator the developer to create this for the residents. And so this this is a type of situation where if you had a group of real estate lawyers they would agree each and every one of them that there's no question that the residents whether you want to call it an easement or part owner. They have the park so the rights derived from that plat there's a problem with the petition that's been submitted by the folks that would like the city involved with the park and that is that the rights they derived were for a private park. If you read the petition closely what they're proposing is something different public access

no legal authority to propose. And so certainly beyond that they're not representing us those of the residents that are in favor of a private park. I want to submit a check-in sheet for the last meeting it evidences that approximately 96 of the residents are in favor of keeping the park as a private park. And so I'd like to provide that too.

Hi thank you. My name is Linda Dolphin and my address is [address] and I'm just surprised tonight to learn for the first time from the city attorney that we don't really have an ownership interest. We really just have an easement and I wonder if there's any ability to comment on whether that would mean that we would be liable as owners within

think ‸ my main concern is the division inside of Carton Terrace no matter what decision is made today. There's still going to be that division tomorrow.
By being on council I speak for an entire city of citizens and I'm not comfortable with having the citizens pay residents for the portion of the park to be public. I do not like the idea of a

It's something I'm not comfortable with going down that road as ‸ for the city. But ‸ I just hope and wish no matter what happens today the residents can come together. We talk about a park. Okay. This is something that I feel like you should be able to have ‸ at least a decent conversation about it. Agree to disagree but
the fact that you're able to come to the meeting and meet together and argue back and forth about what's right and what's wrong. I love that that's democracy that that's a beautiful thing. But tomorrow you have to come together about this issue. But I'm not comfortable with the city taking ownership at this point based on I don't know what the amount may be.

to, uh, repave the city and in order to, uh, the, the downtown area, in order to stay on schedule, we need to keep progressing with these crosswalks. Uh, just for your information, these brick crosswalks are
Uh, they have held up fairly well, but they are showing their wear. Uh, a couple, uh, ‸ the crosswalks need to be replaced, uh, for ADA compatibility. Uh,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:11:50–02:11:51 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
Uh, these, uh, crosswalks, uh, you know, we proposed to replace them with, uh, stamped asphalt. Uh, we're looking at a continuity through the city. Uh, something similar exactly what we did on Florida Avenue. We would, uh, replicate here in the downtown area. Uh, we've also done these on Stone Street and Peachtree.
this whole project kind of caught me off guard and, uh, and understand that three of us wasn't here, but, uh, there's some, I know there's some future stuff that's going on with the city. And it'd be nice to be kind of updated on some of the stuff that's going on instead of caught, you know, being caught off guard. So we were, I know I was definitely caught off guard and I was down there trying to figure out what was going on. And of course I got a couple of messages and, and, uh, and some pictures and, but I looked at some of the stuff firsthand. So I just, you know, I just hope that the staff understand that we're just coming in. So just kind of let us know what's going on. So when we get some, we get some of these phone calls and some of this stuff, we might, you know, have a little bit of knowledge about how to address these issues and these concerns. So,

the color on these pavers, uh, I was going to bring some in, uh, that the colors are obviously faded after 35 years. Uh, so you would never find the exact color match.
um, as far as the asphalt, when you paint it to make it look like debris, is that something that have to be painted every two years, every three? Oh, I mean, what, what's the process of that?
yes, Mr. Mayor, just maybe provide some clarification. First, just apologize for the new members not being aware of the project, but some of the, the background on it. Uh,
was actually proposed for the prior fiscal year. And, uh, due to the length of Stone Street and, uh, the, the bids that came in, we used the city's annual paving, uh, budget that was actually dedicated for the downtown last year. And put that towards the stone street project so we could see that through.
crews would get a contract underway immediately into the fiscal year to ensure that what we had originally promised in, uh, uh, fiscal year 2018 would occur as soon as possible. Now,
you know, obviously our, our focus was on the, the impacts to the businesses downtown. And so we did, uh, do our best to provide notification to them and as well as the, the crews that are down there now working around the, uh, the schedules of the downtown merchants. And so, um, it, it was an oversight that, you know, we didn't get you informed right out of the gate. So just to let you know.

It, it's required on all the sidewalks. We're required to replace the curb ramps and the compliance when we resurface. When you resurface. You know, downtown here, there was 25 or 30 of them that we had to redo.
when we redid, uh, Hewlett Avenue, for example, we had to replace curb ramps. Uh, there were some that were installed that weren't compliant. So we had to reinstall curb ramps, um, through the years to make them compliant. So

Uh, and since they will be flying over our jurisdiction, the FAA requires them to get written approval. Uh, and it is a two year time period, uh,
And in the past, I've just sought consensus from council and provided a letter to them authorizing. So if there's consensus, you know, I'll forward, uh, a new letter to them authorizing them to, uh, conduct their aircraft

Okay. Um, uh, first, first of all, I'd like to, uh, ‸ send a great, uh, congratulations to, um, uh, ‸ Cocoa Police Department for making arrests. Um, on the, um, on the case that we had, uh, the last couple of weeks, it's been a very trying time for the city. And so I commend, uh, chief and that all the detectives and the community for, for coming together. Some,
there also was a, a couple of citizens inquiries about, uh, maybe, um, city manager can answer this, about installing emergency call stations. I know in college we had, um, those big blue lights that we had, uh, when you, uh, was in emergency or panicking or, why this thing popping? Um, or, um, you're not able to access a telephone or a cell phone.
case may be. And it's an alert to, uh, the police department. Um, and it really became a conversation based on this particular case. So, is that something that we have ever thought about or something that,
that's when we talk about solar power. ‸ It, it may could be powered through solar, um, that can, another step of helping our citizens be safe. Is that something that we possibly can do?

And they didn't find any correlation between the perceived safety, uh, as well as real safety associated with the placement of those. Um, I think back in the day when they, you know, it was very common to install those. Folks didn't have cell phone accessibility they do now. Um, so things have changed. But, uh,
that, you know, those passing through, it may provide, you know, some perceptions of a presence, uh, there. Okay. Uh, but, uh, significant lost staff, staff time

decent job at, uh, Fern and Prospect with it. They finally put mulch after two or three weeks of calling and Matt harassing them. But, uh, they finally are trying to spruce up the parks.
Matt made a phone call to them to open the gates and it has not been done thus far. So what, what I'm possibly planning is a, like a community, uh, rededication day, kind of like how we did with, um, Provost Park. Um, maybe we can get a church together, maybe in a month or whatever, um, you know, we come up with to bring the community back together. We have to,
over there on Washington area, Bernard street, um, what was a, was a huge success. A lot of volunteers came from Eastern Florida state. A lot of young people, um, that came out and, and helped. You know, we did a, did a pretty good job. Um, we have an issue at the pond on Bernard street. A lot of that trash, and I talked to Matt about it as well. A lot of that trash is coming through the storm drains, getting to, uh, that particular pond.
at that point, we, we probably had about 12 bags of ‸ trash, um, just on the edge of the pond. That's ridiculous. Um, so I don't know if something, uh, Mr. Weegriff that can be possibly looked at, um, and man, Matt talked about it a few times.
and yes, kids definitely throw trash in it too. I understand that as well. Um, but maybe also a conversation with habitat for humanity to get a fence around that pond as well, because it's another thing with safety. Um, a lot of kids trying to go, when we was out there, they was out there trying to get the balls and getting close to the edge. And we, we have a lot of issues at times in our community with drownings as well. So, um, so I would like for that to be looked at, uh, Matt and Mr.
I appreciate everybody, uh, coming out for the, definitely for the, uh, McFarland Park issue. That was a very tough situation. And I'm still concerned about moving forward.

That's okay. Um, just a couple of things. Um, the dedication down there was, was really, really nice and well attended. And it was great to see that many people come out to dedicate a Habitat for Humanity home, uh, to a female veteran. Uh, ‸ that's probably the best turnout I've ever seen at one of those events. Um, also, um, really happy to see that we've made an arrest, um, in, um, our homicide case. And hoping that, uh, with, um, service coming up this weekend, that, um, at least gives the family an opportunity to, to grieve without worrying about, um, him being on the streets. Um, also, Mr.
both sides of the street. There are no street lights on US 1. It's dark as it can be out there. It's been that way for days. Um, and the same thing on, um, on Indian River Drive from Dixon Boulevard all the way up to 1515. That whole section through there, there's no street lights on. I
it's like, I was driving around the city the other night. I'm like, I mean, I know I'm starting to get cataracts, but it was pretty bad. And I'm looking at US 1, I'm like, there's no, there's no street lights.

‸ there on the dividing line at Brunson. But it's from Brunson all the way, almost to Dixon to Economy Muffler, which is just almost all the way up to Dixon Boulevard. There's no street lights on either side of the road at all.
And I know the police department has a lot of issues with runaways up in there. So that whole area right there around the entrance to Crosswinds is really, really
And see. But, uh, if any resident sees the street light out, most likely it's FPL. You, uh, go online and, uh, report an outage. And, uh, it's very easy to do. There's a number on the poll as well. Right.

I did go to the ribbon cutting also at the organic spa and salon on Oleander street. And they have assured me that I can continue to, uh, maintain my youth with organic products. So that's good. Glad to have them here. And, um, I also attended, uh, pension meetings for the police and the fire department. And I hope, please assure everyone, I'm not trying to go after anybody's pension. That was not my reasoning behind being there. I just wanted to learn more and I'm trying to go to all meetings and just, you
Oh, okay, I'll get through this. But it was really interesting. I thought you did a great job with each presentation, educating the audience about different aspects of fire department work.

Thank you, ma'am. Chief, I wanted to make it to the, uh, to the awards deal and for the, uh, the new employees that was coming on. But I actually had three events early that day and, and I actually passed out and fell asleep. I was exhausted. My body just couldn't take it anymore. Um,
sending some flowers, uh, our flower, our floral arrangement to the, uh, for the funeral for the young lady that was killed here in our city. Uh, that was killed in Osceola, but was a resident of our city.
just think that that'd be a good gesture considering, you know, some of the circumstances ‸ behind that, sir. I don't know what the, maybe the consensus of the council.
And, and, uh, so I'm not going to expound on anything because I don't have anything to tell you. And I said, when it's done, it's done. And, um, you guys

And, uh, also went to the, um, the black history, uh, event at endeavor elementary school, a few of us. And, uh, it was a nice event. Uh, they honored a lot of the local pioneers here in, uh, Brevard County, which I thought was awesome. ‸ That's been the theme and the focus of, um, Black History Month this year. And it's been absolutely wonderful. Um, I was driving through the city of Cocoa as well as portions of Rockledge. And I noticed that we have a number of, um, bus stops with benches and there's no waste containers there. I was looking at the,
um, not just in the city of Cocoa and Rockledge as well. And I was really surprised. And I was actually going to give Dr. Federal a call as well because, um, you know, we, we have some serious issues with these bus stops.

no pads. And I don't, don't even care about the pads, but the fact that there's no garbage cans there. And there's just garbage all over the place in these, um, at these locations, the individuals just leave the stuff there, drop it. Cause there's nowhere for them to put their garbage. And I'm going to be addressing that with the TPO as well.
advertising benches. The benches just kind of appear. And, uh, you know, I know, uh, the, uh, Diamond Square, uh, upgraded a lot of the bus stops along 520 with, uh, city standard benches and trash cans. Those benches are, um, over a thousand dollars a piece and the trash cans are about that also.
cans and I looked at the garbage around them or in the areas around them. And I was like, wow, I didn't even realize, I didn't realize that was that, that was that number in Cocoa. And, uh, and then, like I said, there are three or four rock days that I saw. So, um, that's something I'm gonna be addressing because, you know, we, we were asking people to pick it up and clean it up.
