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.
475 suspect passage(s) marked in place; inspection incomplete: language review; 6 stretch(es) where a voice was detected and no words were recognized.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 28 voices separated from the audio.
40 short machine repair(s) (43 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 and whether a voice was detected where the words are. Not completed: language review.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 93.5% of 20,319 content words.
Dotted words (708 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
475 passages (20% 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.
Inspection is incomplete: language review.
Voice detected, no words recognized (6 stretches). Something may have been said here that the transcript does not have:
00:10:51 (17 s) — neither reading has words
00:11:09 (21 s) — neither reading has words
00:11:39 (30 s) — neither reading has words
00:12:31 (16 s) — neither reading has words
00:13:38 (6 s) — neither reading has words
00:13:45 (7 s) — neither reading has words
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.
Stand beside him and help him to move this city forward. We're looking for greatness, God, and it will take us to unify in every area of this city. And tonight we thank you for the outcome. We thank you for the great godly ideas that have gone forth this night. And we give you the glory and the honor for the victory of this city. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Amen.

I'd like to introduce, of course, Dr. Misty Martinez is the chorus conductor. And behind every great chorus, behind every great conductor is a great principal, Principal Wilson.
Cocoa Tiger alumni herself. Well, she wasn't able to be with us tonight because she's opening a show at the Playhouse this evening, but she asked me to make this announcement. The historic Cocoa Village Playhouse is working jointly with Cocoa High School to have a concert featuring the Cocoa High School Chorus. The purpose is not only to feature this very talented group of young people, but to also raise funds in order for them to travel to Carnegie Hall in October to reform. The date hasn't been set yet, but we are anticipating the end of August or the beginning of September, and we will have information to you after May 26th. So we encourage everyone to move forward in supporting the students to have this opportunity, because you know, it takes a village to get our kids to Carnegie Hall.

So some of you might know I'm currently involved with a project. It's TBD, how successful it will be, but it's called Civility Brevard. And what we're doing, and it's mostly being held on Facebook, we're trying to regrow our skills of civic and civil discourse, especially between folks who vehemently oppose each other, sometimes and oftentimes, unfortunately, on a personal level. So what we're trying to do is ‸ just bring back a few of the skills that we may have forgotten and ‸ reinstitute that ‸ as our normal again, what we expect of each other. And our next, we had one event earlier this month, and it was a great success. We had folks hovering around open mics down in Melbourne, but everyone was very gracious in talking with each other and finding out where perspectives lied, laid, lie, whatever. So

know everybody already knows what's going on, but I think it's important to make a statement in the public, for the public view and for public discussion, that this is what we believe, this is what we will adhere to from now on, and these are our standards, and we hope you'll follow us. So I'm going to just hand this over, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Last week I learned of 35,000 plus cost savings for the city. I want to make sure you are aware and that you and your utilities and public works departments have the opportunity to follow up. In my role as a consultant, I've recently been working with the Midas Companies, a leading full service provider of water and sewer rehabilitation services based in the Metro DC area with a division in Palm Beach, Florida. As it turns out, Midas is in discussions, excuse me, with Corolla engineers in Orlando to rehab 1800 manholes in Cocoa, approximately 700,000

time was, they were even watered. So, yeah, there were some fairly minor things that I think they could correct, at least for the time being. But we are working with them on the overall maintenance agreement. But this can be addressed a little bit more immediately as far as the specific requests that you have. So ‸ we work with them.
you. Appreciate it. Appreciate it. That's how we find out things. We, it's folks like you coming up and making us aware of some things that are happening other than us coming here talking about it. Because sometimes the people take it as though we're just complaining and they don't see anyone behind the, behind the issues that we're bringing forward.

few minutes of your time to share my experience from last week. And an opinion that I have about city council meetings. So I spent all of last week in Tallahassee with fellow union members from throughout our fair state participating with Florida AFL CIO, Working Families Lobby Corps. And while my interest primarily lies here at home with Cocoa politics and policies rather than state and or national politics. I find it necessary to trek to Tallahassee at least annually to meet with the folks who are getting paid to represent us. I'm pleased to report that our newly elected state representative Ciro's is sponsoring House Bill 2163 to provide appropriations to Cocoa High School for their upcoming new construction program.

the state senate. And it was my pleasure to meet with both our representative and senator and I truly hope that Mayor Williams will invite them to visit with us after the session for a full Tallahassee report. So I am confident that both our state legislators understand that we are all in this together, that we must find common ground to work together, and that we all care deeply about Brevard County and our cities. Otherwise, none of us would be doing what we are doing. So a few things to consider. Unlike our nonpartisan city council, there are two main political parties elected to our state legislature. Like our city council, each legislator is elected by a majority of his or her constituents to perform their job in a professional manner and to observe the will of the people. Whether or not a voter voted for an elected official does not excuse that elected officer from serving their constituents to the best of their ability. And at this time, I must tell you all that about the decorum that was exuded by all members of both parties in our Florida legislature, not only during their respective House and Senate sessions, but also in committee meetings. Debate, questions and answers were called on by the chair, ‸ the speaker. Members politely referenced items, asked questions and or answered items as they were addressed. They shared opinions and reasons for their opinions. By this process of good manners and appropriate behavior, onlooking members of the public were able to follow along. Also noteworthy is that the state elected officials never took an accusatory note with their fellow lawmakers. Personal matters were not addressed on the State House or Senate floors. No one raised their voice. Everyone remained calm and discussed business and voted. And so to repeat myself, decorum prevailed and I was delighted.

as a permitted use subject to certain conditions, including ancillary retail sales and restaurant, providing for the repeal of prior and consistent ordinances and resolutions incorporation into the code severability and an effective date. And as you noted, Mayor, this is first reading of this ordinance. It's also a public hearing item. Yes, sir.
we go. Okay. Right. So this amendment was precipitated by a project that was proposed for as an indoor shooting range, not yet titled, that would include a retail store component as well as a restaurant. A business model is similar to another operation
At the present time, we have no provision in our code for indoor shooting ranges as a use. So what we're proposing is in the M2 district to incorporate text under the permitted uses 12D, and we would add number five,
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:39:47–00:39:52 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
to be permitted with the following conditions. A, that all firing takes place within a completely enclosed building, and B, that a site plan application for the development of the range should be included in a plan by
demonstrating the building is both soundproof and appropriately designed for the use. So that's the text we're proposing. As you know, for any text amendment, we look at the need and justification for the change and the consistency with the comprehensive plan. Currently, outdoor firearm testing facilities are permitted as a special exception in both M1 and M2 districts if they are ancillary to a permitted firearm manufacturing use. The staff report for that ordinance recommended the use as a special exception to ensure that such facilities wouldn't be located within close proximity of a residential area. ‸ Primary concern being, obviously, the protection of the surrounding community and the environment. Florida statues cover shooting ranges. They, sorry, their state regulates this to encourage state handling and operation of firearms and mandates appropriate training for safe use

We've incorporated in your staff report an article from OSHA on lead hazards. There have also been two other areas, the

they ask that question, the developer. And ‸ I was just impressed with them. I mean, I've always been impressed with those guys, but I applaud them. And that being said, I'm going to, you guys can either comment now or open ‸ to the public. Yeah,
There are. There is a place in Melbourne called Frog Bones. Same basic model of a ‸ shooting, indoor shooting range with retail sales, and then also a restaurant that serves, they have a full bar. Our code is, you know, going to be limited to beer and wine, but that's our present text. But they do.
Because I'm sure some folks are curious about this whole project when you're talking about, you know, the restaurant with maybe some drinks and then shooting. ‸ But I heard the presentation, so if you can.

they get a UV stamp, waterproof UV stamp on their hand, and then everyone's hand is scanned prior to going into the range. Secondary to that, and since the P&Z meeting, we've actually introduced another technology whereby everybody that goes to have a drink has their license scanned, and that information reports over to the range as well. So there's two tiers, physical checks and balances, if you will. But secondary to that, the staff is trained to not only look for any type of impairment, certainly alcohol impairment, which is probably three or four steps above what an indoor range that didn't have any of those protections in place.

So sound control is very important. This particular building will be completely concrete, including the roof, and there's sound attenuation on the inside as well.

So, St. Mark's Church is requesting a ‸ vacation of a portion of the right-of-way for Riverside Drive. It's in Appendix A, or Exhibit A, excuse me, in your ‸ agenda. The church presently owns the parcel of land abutting this section of the right-of-way, as well as the ‸ parcel on the north side of Church Street, where the church and the school buildings related to the church are located. This vacation is a roughly triangular portion of right-of-way. It was originally used for an extension of Riverside Drive that ran north from this intersection along the waterfront behind where we now have the Civic Center.

ultimately provided a connection to 520, where ‸ River Edge Boulevard crosses Harrison Street. As a result of the development of the park, the roadway connection no longer exists, and there's no anticipated need for the use of this portion of right-of-way as a roadway. So, this is a piece of survey that shows you that portion of the road to be ‸ vacated.
It's a little hard to read, but there on the east side of the project. The city will need to retain a utility easement over the right-of-way in order to maintain city water, sewer, and reuse facilities. And the recommendation is approval of the vacation.

Okay. So there's still going to be public access ‸ through that corridor. And I mean, I've seen the designs. I think, you know, what they're planning to do there is attractive. It does block the public view. Somewhat. Somewhat,
yeah. I realized. The church is looking at building an open-air type of a chapel on that little piece there. It would have, like, arches and kind of wrought iron gates instead of doors. So you would be able to see through the building, you know, to the river. Through gates, basically, at both ends.

than Cocoa. It's bigger than Brevard County. It's actually bigger than the state of Florida. It's part of the East Coast of the United States trail that they're trying to connect. And a piece of it comes through Cocoa, actually. And actually, the original reroute
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:57:55–00:58:01 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
of the trail. Seeing a possible opportunity for the city, anyone that's driven on US-1 knows ‸ Titusville to Cocoa on US-1 is not the greatest path for a bicycle. ‸ We looked at Grissom Road, and there's a lot more right-of-way, a little less congestion. ‸ So we actually proposed putting the proposed East Coast Greenway trail on Grissom Road. Of course, then it would have to come down Industry underneath 528,
along the existing bike paths to 528. Space Coast TPO looked at it, said that made sense. So now they have put that as the proposed route with the US-1 as the alternate route. What's advantageous is things on the trail qualify for a different level of funding.
side of Michigan to link the future trail on Clear Lake Road that's being designed, and the trail on 524 that's being designed. So we'll get a little corner of Cocoa on ‸ the trail map, and I think that's a big deal.
Yeah, this has been going on for a while. I remember back when I was on council before we were discussing this, when I was on the TPO when they were continuously going on with this.

Thank you. um Good evening. um Thank you for having us back before the council. It's uh it's great to be able to present this. This waterfront promenade has has come through an extensive process to get to this point. I think we have a final concept that has addressed all the questions and concerns and input we've gotten, and that's what we want to confirm tonight. So let me just run through just a little bit of the background of this.
in 2018. the idea was to build something more durable than the previous wooden dock that was there. And also to improve the views over the water. There were a couple of key elements that were raised during that time. A desire to have a seating and a strolling area right along the water's edge where there would be good access for the water. And then overlooks that would allow you to get out over the water.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:03:10–01:03:16 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
They show some swings or or other seating opportunities there. So then in November a public meeting was held to review some concepts for the promenade and dig a little deeper into what direction the city wanted. uh Gather input from the public.
A lot of uh great conversation and a lot of input that you'll see um carried over into this final concept. So some key design input from that section was that we had talked about one of the the most important things in that meeting was to find out what do you want that surface right along the water to be. Do you want it to be landscaped? Do you want it to be hard scaped? And if you want it to be landscaped do you
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:04:18–01:04:20 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
you flexibility to be able to use that for a lot of different functions also to allow access right to the water's edge. uh For people, uh but also landscaping to break it up. um Views that were were um raised in that meeting was
or what would the edge at the water look ‸ like and there was a lot of discussion of about that because if you had landscaping, pure landscaping, There can be a code case made that you don't need railing It's not something we recommend when you have a facility like this park and a
into the water. So we then looked at a lot of different railing types from different waterfront parks around the country in different areas. There was a strong preference shown to improve visibility. I think as you go down to the park now you can see just as it is now the visibility is greatly enhanced and wanting even more of that. We actually did some informal votes during that time even if you remember I know many of you were there. The preference out of that meeting was a railing that it was a stainless steel railing with stainless steel cabling very low visible visible intrusion. I would say. Very, very strong very good for weathering the elements there.
for boats coming from the river where they could see they would see this wonderful park and want to know what is that ‸ place. And so an opportunity to put signage there that would be a landmark for people from the river. And then, as I said, keeping a flexibility for a wide array of events. So the concepts we ended up with you can say see here. This is actually looking from the Northeast at a portion of the walkway and the promenade and the overlooks.
in the same location basically same size as the existing gazebo's were behind that on the land side of that you see a low wall. In this along the entire waterfront. That wall is necessary for us to fix the grade if we're going to have a promenade surface in order to meet ADA requirements for accessibility along the entire promenade. It also will provide visually
and have that as a lighted sign. What you want on that sign, certainly you can determine, but it's an opportunity for people to see that. You'll see we broke up these areas with landscape areas.
They also allow us to have a place where we can make any of the utilities a little more discreet. If we need to put electrical bollards or things like that, they're they're much easier, much more discreetly hidden in a planter like that. So, so the other thing that we added ‸ there was a suggestion made at one point about benches or seating in that area. So you'll see them in some of our examples. Some of our renderings you'll see some concrete benches concrete benches without backs and it was to give the flexibility that somebody could sit on those benches and be looking at the river. ‸ the same time, if there are events in the park, they can turn around and be sitting on those benches looking at something in the park too.
than the renderings we presented uh in your agenda packet. So you can see in the gray concrete at the overlook and in these concrete areas, there's a stamped herringbone pattern that's supposed to be in there to break up the texture of that. It just we were trying to present a little lower resolution copies to keep the file smaller that went in your agenda packet, but that was lost. So you can see that you can see the curbs around the landscape areas. You can see the railings depicted. During the public meeting.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 01:09:25–01:09:32 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
aluminum railings and railings. Following that public meeting. I actually went and met with them. And they were a very helpful resource. They are a major manufacturer of railings.
so This next picture is really from the opposite angle, gives you a better view of the top of the overlooks. The overlooks would be equipped with some bollard lighting. and
not those bollards, something that would fit better in the decor, but bollard lighting on the outside to provide lighting there. This is another view. Just looking down, you can see these landscape areas. So as this concept is laid out right now, you have concrete areas that span about 50 to 70 feet, and you have landscape areas that span about 25 to 30 feet. Those could certainly be adjusted as as you wish. The landscaping in here, this is not a final selection of landscape plan type. This is just representative. The thing I want you to to focus on is we want
low landscaping, obviously easy to maintain and all for staff, low landscaping to improve that visibility. This is another section along and this gives you a good idea of the visibility you would expect to see as you're walking down the promenade. This
Flag: the recognized words and the detected speech do not line up · 01:10:52–01:11:11 · gap filled by a machine re-reading (not checked by a person)
concrete benches on the on the side. And we just put them in, kind of alternate to the benches that are shown on the west side, the regular seating benches, so that nobody obstructs the other's view, kind of as you as you walk along. And then lastly, I have two slides here on the sign concept. The sign concept does two things. We provide that riverfront sign. We have the opportunity for it to be lighted. The sign can be however you want it to be. We took the the coco text and fonts and just use those. It provides a a good marker for everybody. It serves a second purpose in that there was some discussion when we were talking about the railings at that public meeting. And the one concern about the cable railing that was mentioned was around the fountain
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:12:12–01:12:12 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
that area we'd have kids running all around and all. So what that wall does ‸ it replaces the railing in that section just opposite of the fountain as well. This is looking at it from the park side, so you have the opportunity again for a sign there. We also have the opportunity to put landscaping in there, which provides a little bit even greater buffer in and around that fountain area from the waterfront. But we left it without we left it kind of open in there because one of the other issues brought up in the public meeting was that
anybody around here their prom photos taken at the park there and looking for different spots to create photo opportunities weddings and things that occur here, so this could be another one kind of centered in this area with the landscaping around it so. Those were the concepts. And I know. Staff at this point is is just seeking final direction to make sure that we've incorporated everything to date if there are any questions i'd be happy to try to. answer

hearing bone it's A herringbone stamped in concrete it's a cost. um It was a cost consideration. We could do pavers in there. I wouldn't recommend permeable pavers. I love them. They're great in a lot of locations but right behind the seawall and
it's about I believe it's about five and a half feet. You remember I have to build that small wall behind the seawall to level the ground. So on the seaside, it's a little tall. ‸ And
so the stormwater, because I know we have some plans, or at least we're looking at some plans for stormwater retention uh to, you know, protect the lagoon in this area. I guess that we'll be talking about that next month, right?

actually doing something in the river, since there's very limited uh space to treat water. We have two large stormwater outfalls that come in, uh one on State Road 520 and one down at the south end of the project here. Both opportunities for additional stormwater treatment, but no, no property. So we're actually looking at doing something beyond this promenade and kind of uh extending something out. But we're looking at this real early stages.
‸ And so we've got the seawall, and we know, of course, they're vulnerable to uh storm surge and just breaking down. So I guess we're doing the living shoreline on the other part of Lee Winter.
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:16:41–01:16:43 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
with other plans. If we were to extend the uh the treatment area out in the river, then, you know, obviously we would look at the area between the new, uh it would probably be a walkway type concept, uh out a couple hundred feet, in
semi-circle and something up against the bulkhead. You know, that would kind of be the treatment area. ‸ And we may look at doing something on the outside of the actual bulkhead that's in the river.
kind of drains to the bowl, in the bowl in front of the uh the performance uh auditorium there. oh okay. So it all kind of drains to the middle. uh It's good for storm water not good for shows when it rains right before. Okay. But yes, this all, it does add a little impervious area,
So, um of course, I was at those meetings. um And, you know, i honestly, I don't like the fence. But, um and we also, there were a number of us that really liked the idea of a knee wall. And similar to what they've done at other places,

And then the other thing is, uh we're forming a waterfront advisory committee. In fact, the CRA voted on that at the last meeting, right? When do we expect that to be ‸ in operation? Should this be something they look at? I
this project was already underway. And I think everybody that it, because this is on a time frame as it relates to FEMA, ‸ recall, but this is a reimbursement, you know, from, so we don't have enhancements the CRA can do. But restoring, and actually, you know, Matt and, you know, Ed and ISS, they've worked with FEMA to get them, to be to be honest, outside of their box,

that uh received those grants, and they didn't have any additional funds left. So, uh but, uh so I i don't know, um i don't know if there's any other, I thought the the, it was my understanding that coming out of that meeting, that the the wire,
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:20:03–01:20:04 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
there were two concerns. One was visibility, that you would now have something, uh you know, roughly 36 inches high or so that would be blocking some people's views. The other thing was people using that and starting to access back and forth across to the river or somebody sitting on it and falling off, a child or something like that. That was some of the discussion. It was, it was us you know, there were a lot of different opinions in the room. Towards the end of the meeting when we talked about this and we narrowed it down and it got to the point of it seemed like this railing was, was the preferred option. That's when I said, you know, how many people would be in favor of using this railing, how many people wanted something else.
people who preferred something else. That's why we went forward with this rally But there was a lot of discussion and there is a lot of different ways to to do it.

July and certain events, people will get close as possible to the water's edge. And, uh and there's just, I think that's one of the concerns when, you when they get ‸ the fireworks going off and ‸ stuff. I mean, that's, I know that‸ that's the main event that we have where we see the park at, you know, maximum capacity, but there are also other events, non-city events, you know, some of the concerts and stuff like that. So.
uh utilities will be underneath it. Utilities or underneath the, the new pavement. there may be some utility, uh access at that wall, ‸ points for different things. With the landscape areas, I'm hoping to

that would give us the additional option of moving some of our festivals ‸ off the streets and into the park. I'm not sure I really like that idea, but it gave us that additional option.
We kept those concrete areas in that 50 to 70 foot area to just give flexibility if you were to set up things like that in the park. that you would have enough space to set up a couple booths or whatever it is that that people do in the‸ I know you said it

um I can just give you my perspective and what I think, and I have to agree with Lorraine and some ‸ other members on the board. um Can you go back to that other slide? I know you said it looks hot out there.
true It, I mean, the problem with the old dock system, and I brought it up because when I was going to do the hotel there across the street, you know, we looked at developing and stuff. And one thing that we like to keep is, is a feeling of connection to the waterfront.
know, the old dock system, you had the wood railing here, and I understand the liability ramifications, and I'll touch on that in a second, but it just feels, again, we're disconnected from the waterfront. Now, when you go to Miami, and I heard someone say about a knee wall, you know, Fort Lauderdale, even
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:25:48–01:25:48 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
yeah in France, it's, it's a knee wall. Yeah. They don't have the issues, ‸ you know, that liability issues. Now, yes, I was thinking that when I was looking at the one slide with the railing going around the, uh the sitting areas. That's probably a good idea because I was thinking the

But I would you know in moving forward you know the board I would just say my two cents would be try to lean to something that gives connectivity and a feeling of oneness with the water. ‸ not you're isolated and kind of thatthat feeling right there where the railing just feels really cold and like almost even jail kind of feeling.
I think that water depth is only like two three feet right there by the sea wall. So it's not like an issue where somebody does fall in they they can't stand right up you know. So that's a saving grace if you look at you know looking at a seawall uh uh knee wall situation. Thank you sir. Thank you.
‸ Thank you. um ‸ When I was at the meeting there was a lot of people there. uh I don't remember hearing a ‸ majority that showed support for this looking as industrial as it is
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:27:53–01:27:57 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
choice but to have the railing. I thought we agreed to something softer like arched. Isn't that what we said. Okay. ‸ So it was not a majority for that fencing. That's number one. the other thing is

that we are seeing here, correct? Correct. all right there was another suggestion instead of a completely concrete look. And this was really what was supported by the majority of the people that were there. A, large individual paver look with grass in between. As, um like a grouting, I guess, but you use a grass material. And I remember at the meeting then that the majority voted for that. Am I correct or not? I, I thought that

I just throw up a couple photos? Because i mean one of the things I've been doing since that meeting is going to different cities in Florida to see what they're doing. Like, uh Sanford, I just have a couple of quick slides that I put on there. Do I need to go click on it?

this is in Bradenton. What I've loved about Bradenton was there was just... You're surrounded by green. You had some shade with the trees, with the porch swing.
That's Bradenton as well. um And they did do... They have a similar fencing to what you're suggesting. They also have some living shoreline that they're working on for their stormwater management.

mean, add some accents to it rather than try to soften it up. Because the one difference out of all those photos is there's not a riverfront park in a band shell where there's major community events held. That's the one difference out of all the locations. We're the only ones that have that right now.
be honest, that wasn't a big focus of mine but came out in that public meeting. ‸ People were talking about being able to see into the park and being able to see what's there and that you couldn't before. And when the wood docks got removed, people saw this incredible view of the park. And so that was, I think, one of the other goals here. Again,

on board. But certainly if the city wants to go in a different direction, ‸ we want you to end up with a project that for the next 40 years you love. Is ‸ there
any way that ‸ we could fast track our waterfront advisory committee so that ‸ they could at least look at this? What is the timeline? ‸ What's our timeline?
They do have a deadline that we have applied for an extension. It's already passed. I don't know how long that extension is for. The FIND grants do have an expiration, I believe. I don't believe it's in the next year.
as FIND for their hurricane recovery funds, that it was part of both the Day Slips and TDOC project, ‸ essentially to restore the entire waterfront that was existing previously.

I would say this. If you came back and you said, we want to expand the landscape areas or we want more landscape areas, if you want to go out there and walk it and say, you know, see it on the ground, that's fine. If it's changing to something like a knee wall or so, then ‸ we would have to go back.

you know, because there was a, and I forget there, there's a, a, a reasonable standard, you know, when you come to an environmental hazard, you know, that within reason, it's not like the city's going to obviously we're just with safety. But when we sought to expand and change, you know, and ask FEMA to do something different was to be more resilient. So we weren't facing the issues that we faced last time that, you know, if, if we had another Irma and, and the wave action

I've done that there. And we looked at that. There are other considerations we have to take into account for design. ‸ I, I'm not going to show you something that we can't build.
I will have something back to you within a two to three week period. Okay. Okay. I just have to look at getting it, you know, getting a concept designed for it and then getting these rendered. And also that you can see them. Now, one, one thing ‸ I need to bring up just not to complicate this issue, but just to make sure you're clear.

walkway that is immediately adjacent to the seawall along the access road to Lee Winter Park. Right. So going from this promenade out to Lee Winter Park, that walkway has that railing next to it based on that meeting. Is that an issue? Because ‸ that's the way it was bid actually to contractors. And when you come to award it,
mean, I'd have much less issue with that. You know, it may not be my favorite, but I mean, I'm okay with that. This, from my perspective, is that, you know, this is the picture of cocoa. It's the aesthetics of cocoa as you're approaching it from the water or from the park.
that's the direction of the council. With a knee wall, I will keep the railing on the overlooks unless you want that. Right. So if that's the direction of council, I can do that. Well, that's without the

we've had two, obviously, two incidents, you know, if you will, two cases that have driven some litigation costs that are not covered by retainer. We have vigorously defended the unemployment filing,
which was technically which was appealed. Then we had to Anthony's firm had to defend that and we prevailed in the appeal. They also represented us during the arbitration. As you know, the item he's arbitrating his termination. ‸ And so that was the one issue. Then there was the issue along the Indian River Drive and
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:47:59–01:48:00 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
by a crane like popped down on a piece of land that resulted in litigation. So and now we're just this is kind of covering for the what we potentially project in the future, but also recognizing those expenses that ‸ we typically receive as a result of, you know, claims.
We do monitor both the non-retainer and the retainer and he works for you all, but I can tell you at an hourly rate, you could give really, you could have really good deal for the retainer and the non-retainer.

Okay. ‸ The retainer includes everything that's not excluded, which is the general litigation, and adversarial proceedings, bond and loan closings, and employment matters, and like code enforcement proceedings. It
then bond counsel required to do, you know, bond deals. So, in terms of trends, we can't really predict the retainer, the non-retainer type items. It's basically on an as needed basis. And we never know when we have employment grievance arbitrations and so forth. In addition to what John mentioned, we've also had to initiate 17 foreclosure actions on behalf of the city. In addition, we had to initiate civil forfeiture proceedings in several cases for the police department. Not included in these numbers are recoveries. I mean, this year alone, we've recovered approximately $85,000 in cash for the city, two vehicles, and one piece of real property. When you include the last two years with the foreclosures, we've recovered 10 pieces of real property for the city. So there's

non-retainer items because we never know, right, when we're going to get sued. I can tell you trend-wise on the retainer, within the last three years, our workload under the

And that's a flat fee retainer. And over the course, we get a nominal CPI adjustment, which doesn't even keep up with the costs associated ‸ with what we have to deal with. So trend-wise, we're seeing a substantial trend on retainer items that are reflective, I think, part because of the economy and land development actions and just helping out when we can, when the city has needs in various departments. Yeah.

use of the land to change the pH and do other things that they do to grow crops. And we get rid of the byproduct very, very cheaply. So it's kind of a win-win for us. I'm here to answer any detailed questions you may have on the contract.
Not so much a question, but we did discuss this at a very excellent presentation last night of the Utilities Advisory Board. And this is, you know, it's called Lime Sludge, but this is from the water treatment process. So this is actually a mineral application. And I was quite satisfied with the explanations that we got last night in regard to applying this, because it is sensitive. This is going on, parts of it are going on our groundwater recharge area. So we want to always, of course, public health is paramount in our first consideration. So I would make a motion to approve.

And, uh I think the city attorney can go over that, because there is a section, um that record that essentially that it's still in effect and it requires all current members of ‸ council to, uh affix their signature to the resolution. And so, I mean, do you want to go over that? can
I understand that we have this resolution, but there were some accusations that was made here and some statements that was made here and this council meeting, um live on the air, um that wasn't true. And um you always
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:02:39–02:02:39 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
to investigate that and bring it back because I think the people need to know there was stuff thrown out there, and I think that the public needs to, I think that the residents need to know the truth. And it was a simple request, and uh
any other council member up here or whatever, then when you make those statements and then the staff has requested to investigate those statements, then they need to be known. And and I know for a fact that one of the items were checked out the next day. ‸ don't have to be, names don't have to be thrown out here. We don't have to hear names. We just, uh they everyone deserves to hear the truth. And
to be transparent. okay So, and that's part of the conversation I had with the city attorney. uh By charter, you know, the powers conferred to me are to investigate employees that fall under my control. I cannot now, so I did, in that particular instance, since there was an employee involved ‸ in an alleged, you know, Sunshine Law violation, uh we received a statement, and he, uh in his statement, verified that there was never any meeting or conversations between
my powers under the charters. I will, you know, rely on my directors and, uh and then and the managers to ensure that the employees, because they have a responsibility, just like I do, and you all do, to uphold the charter, and I'll make sure the employees uphold the charter with regard to uh uh direction and, or, from somebody other than their director or the city manager's office. Okay,
called an employee and told them how to do his job. Whenever I have issues, I've always come into your office or Assistant City Manager's office with a list. And I'll tell you some of my concerns, whether they have to do with PD,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:05:19–02:05:19 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
or whatever. And I give you guys, I say, hey, these are my concerns. If I have pictures, I'll show you the pictures, and then I normally leave out there and leave it at that and hope that you all handle that. And that's the way it's always been. i um I was just very disappointed at what took place. I apologize for my actions because I could have handled it a lot differently um because um I knew what was happening. And it was just I was a little irritated because there's been a lot of legal stuff going on. And I couldn't talk about it before because of a confidentiality deal. I hadn't signed a waiver,
been done, and that's going to be made public because the results are back. And um and I am going to be turning that over to our city clerk so that can be public records so everyone can see and know the facts. And uh

so that therefore following, you know, because I did struggle and then when I spoke with Anthony. uh I just can't, you know, it's not my place to investigate you all. That would be where under that Section
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 02:06:30–02:06:31 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
of the Charter you all would have that power to do an investigation if you want to form your own committee of some sort like that. But I don't have that authority. But
since it was a comment that an employee was there. uh And so I certainly wanted to, obviously, concern for the whole city, but also for the employees. And then
Can I ask then, since thethe accusations were made against me and the statement exonerates me, does this become a part of the public record? Do I submit this as part of the public record?

And I really do appreciate it. But anyway, I've had the um I've been out um visiting our parks on a weekly basis. So many events that are happening in our parks. I was very impressed with the event that took place
that really impressed me when I got there was the level of security we had at Provost Park. And I believe they have probably about anywhere from 18 to 20 armed security guards there. No alcohol involved in the park. Things were clean. It was nice. It was a good event. They had um I think Fire Rescue was there as well. I saw the vehicle over there and uh it was a great event. Absolute great event. Some of what we really needed at this park to kind of um turn turn things around uh from what we've been seeing there. And um and of course, our conversations with the um parks and rigs There's a lot of work that's got to be done to our parks. And uh my biggest concern is that we have the same level of service throughout our city. I don't care what you have or what you don't have. It doesn't matter to me. But everyone deserves the same level of service, the same level ‸ education, uh the the same um when it comes to the streets and sidewalks, I want to see those sidewalks. I want to see those streets fixed because no kids

homes versus some of the renters that these folks that are purchasing ‸ home are putting in these homes because they don't care who they're putting next door to you. andAnd that's just unfortunate.
