CITY COUNCIL REPORTS Councilwoman Lichter informed Council at the last Anti-Litter Committee meeting they decided their efforts would be frugal if they don't have backup from the City. They cleaned on Roberts Road and u.S. 1 and for all of three days it looked beautiful. Councilwoman Lichter feels the City could use a couple of signs that say littering will be fined and suggested some surveillance. She also feels they need an ordinance about littering. They also need the City to become involved. Councilwoman Lichter went to a League of Women Voters meeting to hear one of Volusia County's Planners Kendall Keith who was talking about planning in our County and how things can be planned without damaging the aquifer and animal life. He represented the Growth Management Commission. She sometimes gets confused with all the groups that are involved with the planning process. She asked if Ms. Plaskett would be able to make a rough draft of who does what and who can enforce things. Councilwoman Rhodes had nothing at this time. Councilman Vincenzi had nothing at this time.

Mayor Schmidt spoke about an item in the newspaper he noticed regarding the City of South Daytona. The Mayor was his football coach twenty years ago at Spruce Creek. The City of South Daytona came up with a Code of Ethics for coaches, parents, umpires, and players of their city sports. He feels this is a great idea. He feels it is dictated now and warranted now that they put something like this in place. He would like everyone to get a copy of this and for it to be placed on their next agenda. City Manager Hooper stated he gave that to Mr. Corder this afternoon and he is going through it. We have documentation that is similar but it will be updated and it will be placed on the next agenda. City Manager Hooper stated at the previous Council meeting, Councilman Brown brought up that he was interested in having Oak Hill, New Smyrna Beach and Edgewater to meet. He asked Council if they wanted to schedule something and if so, when. Councilwoman Lichter would like to know why first. City Manager Hooper stated probably one of the larger and most prominent would be dispatch. Growth would also be an item including the local joint planning area agreement. The Chamber has offered to host such a meeting before if Council is interested in doing it that way. Councilwoman Lichter would also like to see an exit to the west. Mayor Schmidt would like to see them get together before the holidays. Councilwoman Lichter would also like to see them discuss the recreation complex. City Manager Hooper informed Council they would work with them and see if they can come up with something in early or mid- December. PUBLIC HEARINGS, ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. 2nd Readinq. Ord.

We have consultants looking at what it takes to realign flagging the wetlands. The other part was paving from Airpark at the southern end of the runway as it continues south. The County is going to break that into two jobs. They will pave as is from the south of the runway all the way down to Mission. Mayor Schmidt opened the public hearing. Katherine Hutchinson, resident of Airpark Road, asked for a time frame on the paving. City Manager Hooper stated County staff told him they were going to pave the part south of the runway no later than March and the realignment will probably take another six to eight months before that part is paved.

City Manager Hooper explained this area is on central water. Central sewer will not be applied to these lots. These lots are larger and have existing septic tanks that work fine. Central sewer is being put into the balance of the annexed property so as future development occurs the City is installing the backbone of the system. Mr. Massey is putting in the lift station for the future development. Due to there being no comments, Mayor Schmidt opened and closed the public hearing. Councilman vincenzi moved for approval, second by Councilwoman Rhodes. The motion CARRIED 5-0. L. Res. No. 2000-R-15. staff recommendinq aooroval of a Reimbursement Resolution authorizinq the City to make purchases from existinq cash and reimbursinq the oaoer accounts with bond oroceeds. city Manager Hooper made a staff presentation. Page -3- Council Regular Meeting November 6, 2000 ~ ...., Mayor Schmidt opened the public hearing. Legal Assistant Matusick read Res. 2000-R-15. City Manager Hooper explained this authorizes us to reimburse those funds from which these expenditures are going to be made. The next step is they will put together a proposal to approach banks so we will have competitive bids over low interest loans to the City. That will also be brought back to Council. Councilwoman Rhodes asked if this is set in stone. City Manager Hooper explained the only thing that can change is, when they approve this, they will be identifying these projects. They can't add projects. These projects can come off or they can not borrow money or not do the project. This just says these are the projects the City intends to build and these are eligible for reimbursement. Councilwoman Rhodes stated they have this money in different funds in the City, they are going to take the money from the different funds, do these things with that money and then have bonds to pay ourselves back. City Manager Hooper stated bank loans or bonds, one of the two. Councilwoman Rhodes stated she has a small problem with that. Why should the taxpayers pay interest on borrowed money? Are any of these things something that needs to be done immediately? City Manager Hooper explained these are things that we have obligated ourselves by the development orders, such as putting in roads, water or sewer. We can up front some of the money from what we have as reserves in the Enterprise Fund but they will have to go to the bank to borrow to reimburse those because those funds are put in place to do other types of projects that are already in the budget. The interest rate is a very low rate and probably lower than what you can make on some of the investments of the funds. Councilwoman Lichter asked if the fire pumper and the associated equipment are in the budget. City Manager Hooper stated it is in the budget. When they brought it forth in the budget, they described they would either lease or borrow. They put it in the budget with a clear understanding, that we didn't have cash and this is the method they would allocate that. Councilwoman Rhodes stated why don't we have the cash for the fire pumper if they put it in the budget. City Manager Hooper explained they put it in the budget with the understanding that it was going to be a lease purchase agreement. City Manager Hooper briefly commented on starting a Vehicle Replacement Fund, which hasn't been done in the past. Mayor Schmidt asked how much time they are looking to borrow. City Manager Hooper stated he is looking at seven years. They will know more when they get quotes. Councilwoman Lichter feels if you need something badly it should come on a list of priorities and it should probably be included in tax money. There was a brief discussion regarding what the reclaimed water storage and pumping effluents will include. Mayor Schmidt asked if this includes a new storage tank. City Manager Hooper informed him yes. Mayor Schmidt asked how big. City Manager Hooper informed him about 2 million gallons of storage. Mayor Schmidt asked what we have storage wise now. City Manager Hooper informed him less than 200,000. Page -4- Council Regular Meeting November 6, 2000 ~ ..""" councilwoman Lichter spoke about some residents not having access to reclaimed water. City Manager Hooper stated mostly through Florida Shores and it is going to stay that way. with the $1 million, it is to put it along u.S. 1 and finish up some of Florida Shores. Councilwoman Rhodes stated she has people calling her south of 30th Street in Florida Shores that say they pay for reclaimed water but don't get reclaimed water. City Manager Hooper spoke about running out of reclaimed water and this solving that problem. Councilwoman Lichter stated she is talking about the people that will be paying into this that don't have access to it. She hopes if they ever have access extra, that it goes to payoff this debt. Councilwoman Rhodes stated it ties up our money for seven years to do these projects. She agrees with Dale Street but feels there may be another way to get the fire pumper. She feels the reclaimed water storage is something that could wait awhile. City Manager Hooper stated this isn't saying they are going to borrow the money. This says if they borrow the money these are the projects they are going to reimburse. He stated if Council would like they could come back and discuss the projects. Mayor Schmidt asked how this will address the south end of Florida Shores. City Manager Hooper explained it will provide more water at the supply end, at the Plant. Mayor Schmidt stated with the people at the north end that abuse it, will there be enough pressure in the system or will they need to go door to door and hit these people that leave it on seven days a week. It's not fair to the guy at the other end of the system. Councilwoman Rhodes stated what is not fair is you sold him water that he can't get. City Manager Hooper explained you have the product most the year, there are times that you don't, such as during the hot part of the summer when there is high use. Councilwoman Rhodes stated when they really need it, they don't have it. City Manager Hooper explained this is how they are going to solve it. If this doesn't work, they will put meters on some and there will be restrictions on some and the more you use the more you will pay. That is the next step. Mayor Schmidt asked if they ever foresee a storage tank in that end of tank. city Manager Hooper stated yes, as they are developing and talking to the annexed property at the south with the golf course he has described, they have approached him about having storage on his site. Councilwoman Lichter asked about the property the original fire station was supposed to be on. City Manager Hooper stated it is not nearly large enough or have the volume to do anything to store on the south end. Councilwoman Lichter feels then they should sell it. city Manager Hooper stated they are going to sell it. It will be a very near future agenda to declare that parcel surplus so they can sell it. Councilman Brown asked if anyone has checked the recharge rate in the pond they will be taking water out of and whether they will get salt water intrusion if too much water is taken out. City Manager Hooper informed him yes, that has all been part of the permitting process. There is a certain amount they can withdraw per day. Page -5- Council Regular Meeting November 6, 2000 .... .."", George Ann Keller, 3039 Unity Tree Drive, stated she lives in the south end and has many days without being able to use reclaimed water. Today, there was no reclaimed water. When she called up early afternoon, she was told they turned it off at 7 a.m. because they didn't have any water. She stated there are restrictions and there is supposed to be enforcements and there are people that have the reclaimed water on continuously. She feels the town is not enforcing the law. She feels people are abusing it and something needs to be done. Dominic Capria, 606 Topside Circle, expressed concern with the reclaimed water and the borrowing of the money to be paid by the tax dollars. He spoke about people that do not have reclaimed water that will have to pay for it. city Manager Hooper explained only the users of the system will actually pay for it through their rates. It's not tax funded. Mayor Schmidt asked if the bonds will be paid for with tax dollars. City Manager Hooper explained no, the General Fund will be paid by non ad-valorem. Tax dollars and property tax can't be used for this kind of stuff. Councilwoman Lichter stated City Manager Hooper did not say the City is definitely going to use long term financing, he said the City is exploring the possibility. She hopes they are going to try real hard to think of something else. City Manager Hooper stated there really are no other choices. Councilwoman Lichter commented on a grant being obtained in terms of reclaimed water. She asked if there may be money out there to help them improve their reclaimed water distribution facilities. City Manager Hooper explained there is some money and they just got $225,000 to do the design, the permitting, and the study. Grants aren't available for the construction, they are available for the planning and the design and permitting of it. Councilwoman Rhodes asked where this reclaimed water will be. city Manager Hooper explained it is at our treatment plant site. They are going to add storage and pumping from the pond adjacent from Public Works into it. Councilwoman Rhodes asked about the service area of it. City Manager Hooper explained the new lines extend down and go along the medians on U.S. 1. Right now all of that is potable water. The City is paying the potable water rate. Councilwoman Rhodes stated so there is no users there that will repay this money. City Manager Hooper explained the current users are going to pay as they go into that. They will probably be back asking to increase the reclaimed water rates. Councilwoman Lichter would like to know out what other cities are paying for reclaimed water. City Manager Hooper explained they are bringing back a rate study that will talk of all of our rates and revenues. He briefly spoke of reclaimed water rates in other cities. Councilman Brown asked if this will be on SR 442 when the landscaping is put in. City Manager Hooper informed him yes. Mayor Schmidt commented on the homes being built that are being hooked up to reclaimed water. Does there come a point where we say we aren't hooking anyone else up because of not being able to service them? City Manager Hooper explained that is the plan. If we can't do this, it is time to do a moratorium on connections on reclaimed water. Page -6- Council Regular Meeting November 6, 2000 ...., ...., Mayor Schmidt asked the cost of a 2 million gallon tank. city Manager Hooper informed him it is about $.60 per gallon so approximately $1.2 million. councilwoman Rhodes asked if they add fluoride, will the Health Department pay for it. City Manager Hooper stated the Health Department will pay for fluoride. Mayor Schmidt closed the public hearing. Councilwoman Rhodes asked if they could put this off until the next meeting. City Manager Hooper informed her yes. Councilwoman Rhodes asked that they do that because she would like time to think about it and get some public input. City Manager Hooper stated if the Council would like they could come back and talk of the projects in more detail. Councilwoman Rhodes stated she understands the projects. Councilwoman Lichter doesn't mind pulling the fire pumper because she thinks that is coming out of the General Fund and that is different. Councilman Brown feels the pumper truck should be taken on a separate item. This other stuff is one thing. City Manager Hooper explained they are listed separate. There are General Fund items which are roads, General Fund for fire, the rest are Enterprise Funds. Mayor Schmidt stated if they delay this, they aren't delaying projects, they are just delaying the beginning process to look for financing to reimburse. City Manager Hooper stated your delaying some of the construction is potential. The permitting and design is underway. Councilwoman Rhodes has a problem with the $3 million for the reclaimed water. She questioned just taking that off. City Manager Hooper suggested they approve the resolution and take off the reclaimed water and bring it back. Councilwoman Rhodes asked if they would be stopping any projects. City Manager Hooper explained they have not started the final construction design stuff on the reclaimed water. That is due for the next agenda but they will hold that off. He feels it would be good to review the whole reclaimed subject, talk of where they have lines and talk of what they can do. He feels they need to hear the whole story of what it will do to rates. Councilwoman Lichter spoke of the cost of enforcement seems to be out of our grasp. She believes it is important enough to figure out where they are going to get the money for enforcement. Councilwoman Lichter made a motion to approve Res. 2000-R-15 taking out the reclaimed water, second by Councilwoman Rhodes. The motion CARRIED 5-0. M.

City Manager Hooper further commented on rates and the programs they are going to updating the agreement the City has with to bring that back in December. the brochure listing the start. He commented on the YMCA. He is looking Mayor Schmidt asked for an update on the grant they are looking for for SR 442. City Manager Hooper explained it is a DOT funded grant. This is the first year. Cities, counties even DOT is eligible for that. It is to improve operations of existing transportation network for regional areas that are looking for evacuation routes. They are working to get this application in their hands by Wednesday. It takes SR 442 from its current ending point and goes over to SR 415. It is for approximately $2 million for planning and preliminary design. Construction is about an $80 million road that will go 15 miles. CITIZEN COMMENTS/CORRESPONDENCE George Ann Keller, 3039 Unity Tree Drive, asked if they could come up with more information about the YMCA at the next Council meeting such as financially and what the Y has done in meeting their money with what we have put out. She asked if the City will be stuck with a bond issue to build a pool if they don't come forward with their moneys they still owe this owe. She asked if the Y is considered a shelter and if the Federal Government ever got the building approved as a shelter area. City Manager Hooper stated they have pledges in the amount of $250,000 and about $25,000 or $30,000 in cash. As far as any debt, the Y has agreed and our contract agrees it is the expansion that they are to pay for. There is no debt because there is no expansion until they expand. They are planning to open the pool by April. It will cost $600,000 or $700,000 to build the pool. City Manager Hooper stated if the worse came about and the Y couldn't fulfill their obligations, they walk away or we walk away. There is not a debt incurred and our only obligation is to continue with the gym we have built which is what we started with originally. The real savings to the City is we aren't having to staff the operation. They are also maintaining the building. Councilwoman Lichter asked if YMCA's are self-contained. She commented on the sum of money the yes in the whole country have collected. She asked if the Y can borrow money from their own source. City Manager Hooper stated they have stated they wanted to do it with cash to build it but if they had to they could borrow. City Manager Hooper explained the City received $288,000 to make it become a shelter. It is a shelter but it is not a hurricane shelter. If a hurricane of category 3 or above were to come to us from the east, that shelter is located in the zone that will be flooded. Mayor Schmidt asked to request Randy appear at the first meeting in December to give them a presentation. City Manager Hooper informed him he is scheduled to do that. Andy Anderson, pine Tree Drive, commented on a hole in the street on the corner of 12th Street and pine Tree Drive. That whole is three times as big as it was now. It is getting pretty deep. City Manager Hooper stated he is pretty sure when that was brought up before it had been taken care of. Mayor Schmidt spoke about a couple on Travelers that have been filled in with sand from the 21st to 23rd block. There is one on the east side of Travelers where the shoulder itself has chipped away. He asked if there is anyone that drives around that spots these. Page -10- Council Regular Meeting November 6, 2000 ~ ..."" Councilwoman Rhodes asked about setting up a program where City workers and Police officers can call it in. City Manager Hooper stated they do that but it doesn't mean they are all caught.
