MISCELLANEOUS Walter Gross, 909 Lake Avenue, stated that there was $360,000.00 in CD's at 12% about l! years ago and they borrowed that money for the paving program and it was loaned at 8%. He said the City has received about $247,000.00 now of that 8% money and it's in the general fund to be used by the whim of the Council. Mayor Ledbetter stated that it's unappropriated money. Mr. Gross said the $247,000.00 was not returned to the restricted fund it was taken from. Mayor Ledbetter pointed out that all accounts received in the City go into the general fund and then into the account that it's intended for. City Clerk Kinsey noted that the money was not taken from the restricted fund but from the general fund unappropriated amounts. Mr. Gross stated that John Wharton is a professional and he asked him to bring it up. John Gross, 404 North Riverside Drive, reviewed problems with Gabordy canal and said he was told by New Smyrna Beach and Edgewater that they own the canal, but the canal has moved 100 feet. He said he's talked to the Army Corps of Engineers and the environmental people about moving this canal. He distributed copies of a map to the Council members. Mr. Gross then said he received a letter from Mr. Ferrara regarding the vacating of the Strand and they now want 15 feet on each side of Riverside Drive. He said when they agreed with the City to vacate Riverside Drive they agreed to the Strand and nothing else was mentioned. There was a discussion about the width of the pavement and the utility easements. Mr. Gross said they'd give 10 feet but not 15 feet and the City has prescriptive rights now. Mayor Ledbetter noted that the City Engineer has this matter and is due in City Hall the following day and asked the City Clerk to talk with him and bring it back to Council. Robert Griesse, Pine Tree Drive, asked Mayor Ledbetter, Councilwoman Bennington and Councilman Wargo why they voted against his re-appointment to the Parks and Recre- ation Board, and asked if the vacancy was advertised. Councilwoman Bennington noted that they tried advertising and it didn't work out. Mr. Griesse then asked if held done something wrong and Councilman Wargo asked him why he thought held done some- thing wrong. Councilwoman Bennington said she didn't vote against him because he'd done anything wrong. o o MISCELLANEOUS (Continued) John Wharton, 1531 Riverside Drive, said the printout looks strange regarding the money from the property owners who paid for road paving in Florida Shores. He asked what they intend to do with that money since Council made no determination. Mayor Ledbetter said that's carried as unappropriated money and City Clerk Kinsey pointed out it's under investments. Mr. Wharton stated it should be fund 70 and listed under accounts receivable but that wasn't done and they don't know where it is. Mayor Ledbetter said to his knowledge it's not being used. Mr. Wharton said he'd talked to Councilman Spencer and Councilwoman Bennington and got nowhere and the printout should show them where it is. Mayor Ledbetter said he'd call Brent Millikan and get a copy for him to show where the money is. Mr. Wharton said it's not recorded properly so people can read it and they had a deficit last year and didn1t make the adjustment until after the 30 days' grace and then the auditors had to do it. City Clerk Kinsey said they're following the practice that was set up for the fund by Brent Millikan. Mr. Wharton said it's not handled properly and the fund was set up to save face. Frank Opal, Florida Shores, agreed with John Wharton and said they're just juggling the figures. He noted that he filed charges a few years ago about a missing $8,000.00 and they changed the figures right away when he was having it investigated. He said proliferation has been going on for years. He asked why there's no monthly cash statement posted as the City Charter requires. Mayor Ledbetter said he under- stood the cash statement is posted each month. City Clerk Kinsey said they have a computer printout posted in the Community Center, City Hall, and the Library, and the same figures are on that as on the clerk's cash statement. COUNCIL/OFFICERS REPORTS, BOARDS AND COMMITTEES City Council Reports - Councilman Wargo spoke on the problem with miniwarehouses and storage buildings being used for various purposes. He suggested when a building is not used for what it's intended for, it should go back to Planning. He also stated that they need a code enforcement officer because the Building Official doesn't have the time or isn't able to follow through with this to get answers. He noted that there is spray painting going on without spray booths and storing of volatile materials which could be hazardous to firemen in case of fire. Mayor Ledbetter stated that he gets a lot of calls on the uses of the warehouses also, and they're running businesses without a license but when he spoke to the Building Official he was told they need a written complaint to act on it. Councilman Wargo moved that the City Attorney look into this and come back with an answer or solution to the problem. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion. Councilman Spencer said he felt it should be referred to the Planning and Zoning Board to evaluate the situation and make their recommendation to Council. He added that Planning and Zoning has been reviewing the permitted uses in the various zones and miniwarehouses was included. Councilwoman Bennington said she reviewed the building permits for the last 12 months and averaged them and it's been about It million dollars assed valuation each month. She suggested they hire a full time code enforcement officer and give Dennis Fischer six months to improve the communi- cations and bring up these code violations. Councilman Spencer asked about the communications problem with Planning and Zoning and Councilwoman Bennington said the violations are not being addressed with site plans that are approved by Planning and Zoning. She suggested they try the code enforcement officer for six months to see if it will work and agreed one man can't handle all this. Councilman Spencer said he agreed the Building Official needs help but he questioned if they should hire someone to help with inspections or with code enforcement. Councilwoman Bennington pointed out that the Building Department could be a good revenue source for the City. Councilman Wargo said he wants to know where they stand legally on warehouses and the Building Official checks before occupational licenses are issued to see they conform in that zone. He referred to various businesses that are around the City in locations that were intended for other uses. Motion CARRIED 3-1. Councilman Spencer voted NO. Councilwoman Bennington stated that they are over their estimated budget in building permit fees and proposed they hire someone at $4.67 as unclassified for 30 days at a grade 7A and then go to $4.87 after the 30 days, for a 6-month trial. Mayor Ledbetter pointed out that it's unappropriated money. Mr. Frank Opal, from the audience, offered to do it for free with only gas expense money. Councilwoman Bennington said if Dennis Fischer doesn1t work out, they want someone to promote right into that slot. Councilman Wargo spoke on the dumpster problem at Tiffany Terrace that the residents had to follow up. Councilman Spencer noted that any resident can file a complaint and it will be brought to the attention of the Code Enforcement Board. Councilman Wargo said he filed a complaint and was accused of harrassing the man. -2- Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 21, 1984 o o COUNCIL/OFFICERS REPORTS, BOARDS AND COMMITTES (continued) City Council Reports (continued)- Councilwoman Bennington moved to advertise to hire a building inspector and assistant code enforcement officer based on if the City Clerk can certify there are funds available. Councilman Wargo seconded the motion. Mayor Ledbetter asked if there are funds in the budget. City Clerk Kinsey said there are funds in Planning and Development and when they do budget adjustments, they could do it, but not in Code Enforcement. Mayor Ledbetter asked how much is there for the Building Official and Clerk now. City Clerk Kinsey said there was $26,000.00 appropriated and they used $8,000.00, and have $18,000.00 left with seven months of the budget in this figure. Mr. John Gross, from the audience, said they could use the Police Department for this. Motion CARRIED 3-1. Mayor Ledbetter voted NO. Councilman Spencer said they had evaluations of the City Clerk/Administrator and he averaged them and placed them in her personnel file. He said in view of her score of 119.25, and the fact that she didn't receive the 10~ increase granted to other employees 10-1-83 and another 10~ granted 4-1-84, he moved that Council approve a pay increase to City Clerk Kinsey of 10~ plus 10~, or 20~ for those two months, plus a 4% merit increase, which is consistent with the City's policy under the merit pay plan. Councilman Wargo asked if the intent is she would receive the 20~ that other employees received and Councilman Spencer said yes plus the 4% merit pay increase on top of that. Councilman Spencer then amended the motion to have it become effective the start of the very first pay period. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the amendment. Amended motion CARRIED 4-0. Original motion CARRIED 4-0. Mayor Ledbetter noted that there's an eyesore at East Pine Bluff and U.S.l. Councilman Wargo stated that they started moving it away that day. Councilwoman Bennington said she'd talked to the man who's leasing it and he told her it will all be moved. City Attorney Reports - City Attorney Alvarez said he1s filing an appeal on the Montesano case and will need checks payable to the Clerk of the Courts for the filing fees in the amounts of $50.00 and $25.00. Councilwoman Bennington moved to grant the two checks. Councilman Wargo seconded the motion. Motion CARRIED 4-0. Councilman Spencer said he's anxious that the City hire Conklin, Porter and Holmes and was hoping for a report on the negotiations with them. City Attorney Alvarez said he received a letter that day from their attorney and the language he's sending back is about the same as he had. Councilman Spencer asked if the resolution 84-R-20 would be modified and if it could be at the next meeting, or if it could come off the table and acted on that night. City Attorney Alvarez said the resolution is not changed at all. Councilman Spencer asked if it could be removed from the table under Unfinished Business. City Attorney Alvarez said it's an administrative matter of checking the language out and it won't affect the prior 'decrsion,ofCouncil. City Clerk Reports - City Clerk Kinsey said there was a request for verbatim minutes of a Council meeting and per ordinance 80-R-149, this requires Council approval. She suggested the charges b~ the employee's actual time plus 25~ per copy. Councilman Wargo said he considers that cheap. Councilwoman Bennington moved to approve it. Councilman Spencer seconded the motion. Motion CARRIED 3-1. Council- man Wargo voted NO. City Clerk Kinsey said Council received correspondence regarding overdue invoices from Southern Building Code Congress and she talked with the City Attorney about this and recommended that Council authorize the payment of $1,130. and authorize the City Attorney to pursue this with the former Building Official. She added that the City needs to pay it for credibility. Councilwoman Bennington said she understood the former Building Official authorized it because he couldn't handle it and he didn't follow the proper purchasing procedure and the developer didn1t pay it. She moved they should pay it and then go after the Building Official to recoup the losses and expenses to get this amount. Councilman Spencer seconded the motion. Councilwoman Bennington then withdrew her motion and moved to authorize the payment to Southern Building Code Congress in the amount stated. Councilman Spencer withdrew his second and then seconded this motion. Motion CARRIED 4-0. Councilwoman Bennington moved to authorize the City Attorney to use whatever pro- cedures necessary to recoup the money, plus the expenses it takes to recoup from the previous Building Official. Councilman Wargo seconded the motion. Mayor Led- better pointed out that Charles Murphy was a contracted Building Official who jeop- ardized the City by using City stationery to authorize this. Motion CARRIED 4-0. -3- Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 21, 1984 o ~ COUNCIL/OFFICERS REPORTS, BOARDS AND COMMITTEES (continued) City Clerk Reports (continued)- City Clerk Kinsey said she and the City Attorney negotiated a contract to purchase the lot on Ocean Avenue next to the sewer plant and the lowest price they could obtain was $9,000.00.- She added that funds are available in the sewer department impact fee fund and there's a resolution later on the agenda if Council decided to purchase it. Councilwoman Bennington asked the original price and City Clerk Kinsey said it was $12,000.00. . City Clerk Kinsey said Council has been given a cost comparison memo on paving four streets that were remaining that the Community Development Block Grant program had graded. Councilwoman Bennington asked if funds are available and City Clerk Kinsey said Street Department didn't use 50% of their budget and they're seven months into it so there's about $32,000.00 in the Public Works account. Mayor Ledbetter asked about money in the paving fund and how much was left in the actual paving money after paving Mango Tree. City Clerk Kinsey said it's in the Public Works budget and there's about $5,000.00 left in the contractual services. Mayor Ledbetter pointed out that it's $22,848. from Halifax Paving and $27,681. for City employees, but the City employees would be paid regardless of what they're doing. City Clerk Kinsey said these people aren't on the payroll except for the two top people and the price per ton is the same with Halifax if they lay it on the streets or the City goes to get it. Council- woman Bennington said if it's the same price with Halifax doing it, then we should do it. Councilman Wargo agreed. Mayor Ledbetter asked how much the others cost and City Clerk Kinsey said they paid $18,900. for the others. Councilman Spencer said that Public Works is underexpended at this time and he felt there's sufficient money in the budget to accomplish the $22,000. to pave these four streets and the other two streets that were graded aren't in as bad a condition. Councilman Spencer then moved that Council authorize the paving of Joyce, Woodley, Merrimac, and West Pine by Halifax Paving at a price of $22,848.60. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion. Mayor Ledbetter asked if bids are needed and Councilman Wargo noted that this is the County's bid price. Motion CARRIED 4-0. City Clerk Kinsey said they've discussed a thank you dinner for advisory board members and she recommended that it be held during the week of June 18th, depending on availability, and she needed authorization for the expenditure. Councilman Spencer said he's in favor of this recognition and he moved that the Council authorize the expenditure from the Council budget to provide a dinner for advisory board members and their spouses around the 18th of June. Council- woman Bennington seconded the motion. Motion CARRIED 4-0. Mayor Ledbetter asked the location. Councilman Spencer said he has no strong preference. Councilwoman Bennington said she doesn't like the idea of catering in the Community Center, and suggested they leave it up to the City Clerk/Administrator to see what she can come up with during that week. Councilman Spencer agreed. Parks & Recreation Dept.-Request to purchase Christmas decorations - City Clerk Kinsey read the May 15th letter from Recreational Director David Garrett which requested the purchase of 15 Christmas decorations for a total of $1,922.00 which would include a discount of 30% if purchased before June 1st. Councilman Spencer noted that there was $2,500.00 put into Federal Revenue Sharing for this, and he moved that the Recreational Director be authorized to make the purchase. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion. Councilman Wargo asked who would put these up and take these down because he'd received calls on this. City Clerk Kinsey said they had two offers already for buckets and they had to depend on Florida Power and Light before. Motion CARRIED 3-1. Mayor Ledbetter voted NO. Planning & Zoning Board - Recommendation to revise required off-street parking - Councilman Spencer said he had some questions on the memo from Planning & Zoning regarding the recommended change in double access. Councilwoman Bennington said she understood there was confusion with 12 feet for double access ways and 20 feet for single access ways because some streets are not even 20 foot wide. Councilman Spencer then questioned the parking spaces to be permanent surfaced areas. Councilwoman Bennington said the intent is they will have paved streets allover the City eventually and they could require the paved driveways now. Councilman Wargo suggested it be a permanent hard surfaced area instead of just surfaced area since that could be shell. Councilman Spencer moved that the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board be referred to the City Attorney for preparation of the appropriate ordinance changes,including the change made by Councilman Wargo to state that it be a permanent hard surfaced area. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion. Motion CARRIED 4-0. -4- Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 21, 1984 o o COUNCIL/OFFICERS REPORTS, BOARDS AND COMMITTEES (Continued) .. ,..

Councilman Spencer moved that Council adopt Ordinance 84-0-7. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion. Councilman Wargo said he thought this was premature. City Attorney Alvarez said it1s automatic and the franchise is due to expire no matter who has it. Mayor Ledbetter noted that this has been transferred before. Motion CARRIED 4-0. Ord. 84-0-8 - Renewing Cable TV franchise - City Attorney Alvarez noted that the last line on the first page of the ordinance, section 5, should have the words "by 1aw" deleted as that is a typographical error. He read the Ordinance. Ord. 84-0-8 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDGEWATER, FLORIDA, RENEWING A NON-EXCLUSIVE CABLE TELEVISION COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM FRANCHISE GRANTED TO CABLEVISION INDUSTRIES OF CENTRAL FLORIDA, INC. FOR AN ADDITIONAL 15 YEARS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ATTACHED FRANCHISE AGREEMENT; CONTAINING A REPEALER PROVISION; A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. City Attorney Alvarez noted that the new franchise in effect next year will adhere'to FCC-rules and regulations regarding the franchise fees, and added that FCC could increase the amount the City could exact up to 5% increase. He said the basic improvements are quality of frequency, number of channels, extension of service to areas of the cities which previously didn't have it, and the formula by which service must be extended was changed to if it contains 50 hours per mile contiguous to existing lines. Councilman Spencer questioned the requirement on page 4 that they provide insurance satisfactory to the City. City Attorney Alvarez said it was $10 million and then it was decided to contact the City's insurance carrier to establish the figure. Councilman Spencer then asked about the section page 5 regarding free service that the City can specify. City Attorney said that's an elastic clause because some different areas may qualify for free service. Councilman Spencer asked if they could specify the Elementary School be serviced and Mr. Messner, of Group W, said the present franchise covers the school. Councilman Spencer said on page 7 there is a requirement for a performance bond and asked if it will be maintained by the City and if each City has one. There was a nod of agreement from a cable representative in the audience. Councilman Spencer noted on page 9 there is a reference to installation of an emergency alert system and asked how that would operate and how City officials could use that in a disaster. A cable representative said the City would designate the officials and it would be dialed and then code number assigned for the use. Councilman Spencer noted that page 10 lists they'll have at least 35-channe1 capacity and asked what the difference would be for programs provided. A representative from cable said they have to have that capability. Councilman Spencer said it doesn1t state they have to provide it and the representative agreed that's right. Councilman Spencer and the cable representative discussed the leased access uses to be designated and the local access channels. -5- Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 21, 1984 . o o ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS (Continued) Ord. 84-0-8 Renewing Cable TV Franchise - (conti~'ued) Councilman Spencer said on page 11 it states signals would have satellite and microwave channels and asked what the off air channels are. A representative from cable said off air would be Orlando. Councilman Spencer asked about the FM channel and the cable representative said they don't have it now but they'll have to have it. Councilman Spencer noted that the franchise will be 3% and it's now 10% due to FCC requirements but said he felt the City should get something in additional coverage or service. Mr. Tom Alexander, cable consultant, said FCC knew this question would be raised. Councilman Spencer pointed out that there is a require- ment that within one year from the date of the franchise the service will be extended throughout the City anywhere there are 50 homes in a contiguous mile. There was a discussion about the contiguous lines and the projected growth in Florida Shores. Mr. Mike Lisman, of Cablevision Industries, said he can't say where they can extend in Florida Shores because the present cable system is laid out in a north-south direction. He brought a large map with an overlay up to the Council table for members to review. Mr. Lisman said there were three projects approved and they were Hermosa Palms, Village Green, and Wildwood and the estimated cost is in excess of $99,000.00 and that doesn't include Florida Shores. Mr. Lisman said he'd provide a complete exhibit at the next meeting. Councilman Spencer asked about future possibilities such as burglar and fire alarms, access to libraries, and other services. Mr. Alexander said the system will be maintained as a state of the art system throughout the time of the franchise. Mr. Lisman said it's pretty automatic for a cable TV system to stay in line to provide these services, and he referred to satellite services that were not included in the 1970 franchise. Councilman Spencer said he would con- sider it to be open for re-negotiation. Mr. Alexander said they'll have problems with financing if it says re-negotiations of the franchise. Councilwoman Bennington questioned the service interruptions on page 7 which says you have to be out of service for 24 hours before it's deducted. Mr. Alexander said they dispatch service orders at noon unless there's no service at all and then you'd get an emergency call. He said they don't schedule overtime. Mr. Messner pointed out that they have a man on standby seven days a week. Councilman Wargo pointed out that page 14 lists cooperation with designated City officials in Deland. Mr. Alexander explained that was a typographical error. Councilwoman Bennington asked if there's a penalty if they don't extend the service to the areas and Mr. Alexander said there's a performance bond. Councilwoman Bennington asked how the City would get it and Mr. Alexander said they'd instruct the attorney to go after it in the City's name. Mayor Ledbetter asked that they correct the Hermosa Palms before the next reading. City Clerk Kinsey said it's Edgewater Park Apartments. Mr. Lisman stated they're going to try to do all they say they will. Councilman Spencer moved that Council adopt Ordinance 84-0-8 on its first reading. Councilwoman Bennington seconded the motion.
