Thank

mayor
I
would
just
like
to
let
everyone
know
that
beaches
watch
is
going
to
have
a
meeting
this
Wednesday
night.
It
is
the
2020
legislative

supposed

been
held
in
April,
but
it
got
postponed
because
of
Kovan.
It
will
be
a
virtual
meeting
and
mayor
Latham
will
be
doing
the
the
legislative
update
and
then
we'll
also
have
Atlantic
Beach
Mayor
Ellen
Glasser
and
Neptune

mayor
Elaine
brown

the
meeting
as
speakers
as
well
and
they're
going
to
provide
kovita
updates
for
their
cities.
F
A
G
H
I
Ken
Marsh,
if
you're
there,
you
should
be
able
to
speak
now,
all
right
I'm
here.
Can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
we.
A
I
All
right,
Ken,
March,
2011,
Gael
Avenue
on
May,
the
20th,
the
short-term
rentals,
were
approved
to
resume
operations
in
Duval
County
under
certain
safety
precautions.
Our
neighborhood
recently
learned
firsthand
that
the
rental
season
began
because
on
Friday
May,
the
29th
at
6:30
a.m.
there
was
a
verbal
altercation
happening
in
our
streets,
which
our
local
neighbors
police
police
were
called
and
responded
appropriately.
In
addition,
the
altercation
also
migrated
toward
the
beach
where
another
police
was
responded.
I
My
purpose
tonight
is
to
ask
counsel
to
do
a
follow-up
to
the
short-term
rental
ordinance
2019
81
18
that
was
approved.
September
2019
as
a
reminder
to
council
contained
within
the,
whereas
clauses
is
the
stipulation
and
one
of
the
purposes
of
the
code
was
to
and
I
quote,
protect
the
health,
safety
and
general
welfare,
a
permanent
residents,
property
owners
and
investors
also
as
a
reminder
per
the
ordinance.
Unless
there's
an
amendment,
all
STR
apps
should
have
been
submitted
by
January
2020
and
certificates
subsequent
subsequently
issued
by
the
end
of
April
2020.
I
At
the
time
of
the
ordinance
discussion,
it
was
relayed
that
the
magnitude
of
the
STRs
within
Jax
beach
was
in
the
order
of
400
to
800
units,
some
of
which
were
part
of
community
associations
which
were
excluded
from
this
ordinance,
recognizing
that
the
STR
certificate
is
a
critical
enforcement
mechanism
to
ensure
the
success
of
the
ordinance
I'd
like
to
request
two
follow-ups
from
Council
one
after
excluding
community
associate
associate
Reynolds.
What
is
the
general
estimate
of
the
certificates
that
the
city
expected
and
how
many
applications
have
been
received
in
line
with
item
1?
I
Do
we
have
any
idea
to
the
number
of
short-term
rentals?
It
should
have
made
a
submission
and
have
not
in
closing.
According
to
the
city,
web
residents
have
a
24/7
hotline
that
they
can
report
nuisances
related
to
short-term
rental
property.
If
this
is
the
agreed
upon
process
for
handling
the
nuisances,
then
I
strongly
recommend
that
we
communicate
this
throughout
our
community,
because
I
can
tell
you
factually
the
most
of
my
neighbors
are
unaware
of
this
process.
I
If
this
is
not
how
nuisances
should
be
handled
from
the
community,
then
we
need
to
be
told
what
the
proper
way
is
last.
Lastly,
I
want
to
thank
and
acknowledge
the
quick
response
from
our
Police
Department.
There
are
many
folks
that
this
week
are
especially
quick
to
criticize
the
entire
police
community
for
the
behavior
of
a
few,
whether
it
is
something
as
simple
as
answering
a
call
for
neighborhood
nuisances
or
as
dangerous
as
a
shootout.
I
simply
cannot
fathom
a
community
without
our
folks
in
blue.
Thank
you.
A
J
We
are
mayor
this
first
item
up
for
council
consideration
tonight
is
regarding
the
approval
or
disapproval
of
selecting
Florida
natural
gas
as
our
new
natural
gas
supplier
to
Beach's
energy
services.
Here,
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
agreement
and
how
we
got
to
this
point
and
what
it
means
going
forward
is
Beach's
energy
services,
director
Allen,
Putnam
Jacob.
If
you
could
please
advance
them
to
the
panel.
G
Everybody
hear
me
unclear
we
can
make
sure
so.
For
the
past
10
plus
years
we've
used
Tico's
people's
natural
gas
they've
supplied
our
gas
to
us.
This
year
we
saw
an
opportunity
to
review
the
three
contracts
that
we
currently
have
with
Tico.
We
found
out
pretty
quickly
that
we
had
outgrown
our
a
requirement
for
natural
gas
supply
were
Tico
did
not
was
not
note,
was
no
longer
the
lowest
provider
and
lowest
cost
provider
for
us.
So
we
entered
into
a
consulting
agreement
with
Tico
to
bid
out
our
natural
gas
supply.
They
came
back
at
seven.
G
Suppliers
responded
to
the
RFP.
We
actually
came
back
with
savings
savings
of
seventeen
percent,
our
one
hundred
and
forty
six
thousand
dollars
on
our
natural
gas
supply.
So
it's
big
news
for
our
customers,
and
so
what
this
does,
in
essence
is
replaces
the
natural
gas
supply
contract
with
Tico.
We
have
currently
have
three
contracts:
twenty
go
now
that
will
be
two
one
can
Tico
will
continue
to
manage
our
system.
Do
the
day-to-day
maintenance
and
compliance
they'll
also
continue
to
provide
supply
from
from
our
gate
station
over
on
Beach
Boulevard?
E
K
D
J
We
are
mayor.
This
next
item
is
for
approval
of
the
Rio
point
final
plat.
This
is
a
parcel
of
property
that
is
located
on
12th
Avenue
north
on
the
north
side
of
the
road
west
of
Penman
Road.
It
is
a
former
former
child
daycare
facility
and
is
being
replanted
in
to
send
single-family
home
locks.
The
zoning
for
the
area
is
Rs,
2
and
all
of
the
parcels.
J
A
K
L
Oh
sorry,
can
you
guys
hear
me?
Okay,
yeah,
okay,
no,
it
is
zone
single-family,
so
they
would
not
be
able
to
do
townhouses
there
without
rezoning,
the
entire
property.
So
they
are
limited
to
those
ten
single-family
homes.
Okay,.
E
E
M
K
A
J
You
mayor,
yes,
as
the
mayor
indicated,
this
is
this
is
not
a
bite,
a
voting
item.
This
is
an
item
that
we're
trying
to
develop
consensus
on
to
see
where
each
of
the
councilmembers
Falls.
With
regard
to
the
two
particular
issues,
given
that
we're
still
under
a
declared
state
of
emergency,
we're
trying
to
make
the
best
informed
decisions
that
we
can.
J
The
the
first
things
that
I'd
like
to
point
out
is
that
the
staff
does
have
some
concerns
about
going
forward
with
the
4th
of
July
display.
The
first
is
with
regards
to
crowd
size
and
police
control,
we'll
talk
about
in
just
a
minute.
The
fact
that
there
are
many
other
organizations
around
us
communities
that
are
cancelling
their
4th
of
July
fireworks
displays.
J
The
second
is
with
regards
to
social
distancing.
As
many
of
you
are
aware,
there
are
still
guidelines
in
place
issued
by
the
the
CDC,
as
well
as
the
governor
with
regards
to
crowd
size
and
social
distancing.
The
separation
that
you
should
try
to
maintain
inviting
tens
of
thousands
of
people
into
our
downtown
at
night
in
the
dark
would
create
a
virtual
impossibility
to
manage
any
type
of
social
distancing,
as
chief
Smith
and
I
discussed
several
occasions,
leading
up
to
this
meeting.
J
If
the
city
were
to
proceed
with
with
the
fireworks
display,
there
legitimately
can
be
no
expectation
of
enforcing
social
distancing.
He
would
need
every
resource
in
his
disposal
just
to
manage
the
crowd
size
alone,
let
alone
trying
to
tell
groups
more
than
10
to
break
apart.
The
third
is
with
regards
to
what's
actually
going
on
around
us
and
I
do
have
some
updates
for
you.
Within
the
memo
you
see
a
list
of
communities
in
Central
and
Northeast
Florida
and
where
they
stand
with
regards
to
4th
of
July
fireworks.
J
Orlando
has
canceled
and
will
be
holding
a
virtual
fireworks
display.
Flagler
County,
as
well
as
the
city
of
Flagler
Beach,
have
both
canceled
st.
Augustine
was
waiting
until
today
to
make
their
decision
at
their
council
meeting.
The
City
of
Daytona
Beach
has
canceled
Naval
Station
Mayport
has
canceled
city
of
Fernandina.
Beach
will
be
having
a
fireworks
display
put
on
by
a
third-party
nonprofit,
but
they
will
have
no
vendors
at
the
event.
Orange
Park
has
postponed
until
Labor
Day
Jacksonville
is
not
making
a
decision
until
tomorrow.
J
I
think
they're
probably
waiting
to
see
what
happens
with
us
in
st.
Augustine.
Because
of
that
domino
effect.
If
the
two
of
us,
both
canceled-
and
that
means
even
a
larger
crowd,
may
show
up
in
downtown
built
and
make
their
control
more
difficult
as
well,
st.
Mary's
has
postponed
theirs
until
the
shrimp
Festival
in
October
Palatka
we
have
since
learned,
has,
has
postponed
theirs
as
well,
and
we
also
found
out
that
the
city
of
gains
city
of
Gainesville
has
also
canceled
their
4th
of
July
fireworks
events.
J
Our
recommendation
from
staff
is
that
we
not
proceed
with
the
event,
but
perhaps
consider
doing
it
at
a
later
point
in
time
in
the
year,
perhaps
look
at
doing
a
Labor
Day
fireworks
display.
We
did
check
with
the
pirate
ex
pyrotechnic
company
and
there
is
no
problem
with
scheduling
them,
or
at
least
preliminarily
scheduling
them
at
this
point
in
time.
J
For
that
weekend,
the
final
check
that
we
would
need
to
make
would
be
with
the
City
of
Jacksonville
to
make
sure
that
the
funding
could
still
be
used
within
this
fiscal
year,
just
for
a
different
date
instead
of
4th
of
July.
Their
offices
had
been
closed
up
until
today,
so
we've
not
been
able
to
get
an
answer
with
regards
to
the
funding
and
for
those
of
you
who
may
have
heard
they
actually
postponed
their
non-essential
workers
returning
to
work
today
because
of
the
protests
that
were
occurring
in
downtown
Jacksonville.
J
So
hopefully
that's
something
within
a
24
to
48
hour
window
we'd
be
able
to
get
an
answer
on
with
regards
to
funding
for
Labor
Day
with
that
mayor
and
with
your
your
approval,
the
the
thought
process
here
would
be
that
each
of
the
six
are
set
each
of
the
seven
council.
Members
would
basically
just
take
a
minute
or
so
to
explain
their
position
with
regards
to
the
fireworks,
and
then
the
mayor
and
I
would
effectively
make
a
decision
within
the
next
24
to
48
hours,
based
on
the
feedback
from
Council
and
any
additional
information.
A
K
July
4th
I
believe,
is
on
a
Saturday
this
year
and
that
will
add
to
the
crowds,
if
Jacksonville
and
so
now,
Augustine
councillors
and
we
go
ahead
with
ours.
I
could
see
that
band
complete
chaos,
so
I
do
I
do
think
we
should
postpone,
not
cancel.
I
would
like
to
throw
in
there.
Maybe
the
thought
of
a
New
Year's
Eve
display,
as
opposed
to
Labor
Day
in
the
same
calendar
year,
we're
concerning
the
funding.
K
If
we
don't
have
the
big
display,
but
yeah
we're
right,
we
cannot
enforce
social
distancing
Eveready
same
the
people
are
kind
of
over
to
ready,
I,
think
and
another
month's
time
will
be
last.
Social,
distancing
and
I
do
see
the
July
4th
being
a
monster
a
for
the
beach
and
a
very
taxing
and
stress
all
day
for
the
police
force.
So
that's
my
two
cents.
Thank
you,
sir.
G
E
Agree
with
mr.
Dority
sentiments-
also
it's
not
mentioned
in
the
memo,
but
on
Saturday
July
4th
high
tide
is
at
8:30
p.m.
so
making
the
opportunity
for
social
distancing,
even
lower
I
just
wanted
to
throw
out
there
I'm
not
advocating
one
way
or
the
other
for
this.
But
I
did
listen
in
on
a
webinar
this
morning,
hosted
by
the
sorta
League
of
Cities,
and
one
of
the
main
topics
was
how
cities
are
dealing
with
their
fireworks.
E
Displays
with
the
thought
that
it's
it's
nice
to
have
a
celebration
during
a
you
know
this
hard
time
that
we're
going
through.
But
how
can
city
safely
do
that?
So
there
are
some
creative
solutions
that
have
been
coming
up
besides.
Just
simply,
cancelling
postponing
to
another
holiday
is
certainly
one
of
them.
I
do
like
the
idea
of
New
Year's,
because
we
can
do
them
earlier
because
it's
darker
earlier,
so
that
would
be
I.
E
Definitely
an
idea
with
support,
but
also
the
way
that
we're
discussing
it
now
assumes
that
the
fireworks
have
to
be
on
the
beach
over
the
ocean,
which
is
certainly
something
that
is
unique
about
our
fireworks
and
also
as
part
of
what
draws
the
big
crowds,
but
something
that
we
could
potentially
consider
for
this
year
or
even
future
years
going
forward
when
we
do
have
a
high
tide
situation
is
thinking
differently
about
the
location
and
what
I
thought
of
based
on
this
call.
The
call
this
morning
and
some
of
the
other
ideas
was
our
golf
course.
E
So,
having
a
you
know,
fireworks
display
where
the
firecrackers
are
going
off
right
over
the
golf
course
with
limited
access
to
that
area.
So
you
don't
gather
the
crowds
right
there.
It
would
be
very
visible
to
a
lot
of
the
community
from
their
homes
and
first
is
attracting
a
large
crowd
to
the
area.
So
I
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out
there
as
an
idea-
maybe
not
even
for
this
year,
but
for
future
food
for
thought
as
a
potential
option
for
our
fireworks
display.
E
H
H
Not
a
good
situation
with
our
community
and
the
residents
and
I
think
they
need
to
get
out
and
do
something
I
think,
like
councilman
Doherty,
said,
there's
already
going
to
be
a
lot
of
people
out
here
having
the
fireworks,
it's
not
going
to
increase
it.
You
know
it's
not
going
to
double
or
triple
it.
I
think
that
we
need
to
have
them,
and
especially,
if
coj
has
it
I
think
we
leave
it
up
to
the
City
of
Jacksonville.
We
have
the
ability
to
cancel
at
the
very
at
the
very
last
minute.
H
There's
no
reason
for
us
to
cancel
now
the
City
of
Jacksonville
pays
for
the
fireworks.
The
only
thing
that
we
have
to
pay
for
is
the
security
and
stuff
which
is
very
easy
to
you
know
a
day
or
two
before
he
and
say:
hey
we're
not
having
them
and
then
we're
not
out
any
we're,
not
out
any
money
City
of
Jacksonville.
H
My
understanding
has
already
agreed
to
pay
the
pay,
the
pyrotechnic
company
for
the
fireworks
they're
already
in
so
those
are
those
are
paid
for
if
we
end
up
delaying
them
a
day
or
two
beforehand,
then
then
a
so
be
it
at
that
time,
but
I
think
our
community.
We
need
to
do
everything
we
can
in
order
to
have
these
for
the
community.
N
Thank
You
mayor
I,
agree
with
miss
Hoffman
and
mr.
Doherty
I.
Think
Delaney
is
a
good
idea,
there's
just
a
lot
of
unrest
right
now:
nationwide,
in
addition
to
kovin
19
I,
like
the
idea
of
moving
it
possibly
to
Labor
Day
or
New
Year's
Eve.
That
said,
New
Year's
Eve
falls
into
a
new
fiscal
year
might
be
in
the
calendar
year,
but
it's
a
new
fiscal
year
and
then
we
would
Jacksonville
if
they
were
to
pay
for
4th
of
July
fireworks.
N
We're
gonna
ask
them
to
pay
for
two
4th
of
July
fireworks,
one
being
in
July
one
being
on
December
31st.
So
that's
something
that
we'd
need
to
think
about
to
move
it
to
the
New
Year's
Eve.
Now
that's
that
I
think
that's
a
nice
idea
as
well,
but
that's
something
that
we
could
think
of
down
the
road
making
sure
that
Jacksonville
is
on
board,
but
I
think
that
delaying
it
momentarily,
given
just
everything
that's
going
on
right
now
would
be
the
prudent
thing
for
the
city
to
do
with
the
crowds
they're
going
to
come.
N
I
disagree
with
mr.
Nichols
I
think
that
we
will
get
more
people
if
we
have
fireworks,
especially
with
all
the
ones
that
have
already
canceled
and
that's
there.
There
are
going
to
be
a
lot
of
people
out
here.
That
will
just
be
that
many
more
people
if
there
are
fireworks,
so
that
would
be
a
concern.
I'm
definitely
there'd
be
no
social,
distancing,
I'm
going
to
assume-
and
the
chief
can
comment
on
this-
that,
while
you
know
well,
he
noted
that
they
they
would
not
be
able
to
maintain
social
distancing.
N
If
there
is
fireworks,
they
would
be
able
to
to
some
extent
if
there
were
no
fireworks
and
we
still
got.
You
know
large
crowds
that
day
but
I'm
not
sure
how
that
would
work
for
the
department
but
like
I,
agree
with
miss
Hoffman
and
mr.
Dority.
That
I
would
postpone
it
not
necessarily
cancel
at
the
postpone
it
to
try
and
see
if
we
can
work
it
at
another
time.
You.
A
N
F
F
My
concern
is
with
our
Police
Department
and
what
they
would
have
to
deal
with
if
we
have
the
fireworks
and
that's
my
biggest
concern,
I'm
also
concerned,
because
if
we
have
the
fireworks,
that's
something
that
the
city
is
sanctioning
and
it's
I'm,
just
not
comfortable
with
the
city,
sanctioning
something
that's
just
encouraging
a
large
number
of
people
to
come
out
to
the
beach
and
encouraging
the
the
problem
with
social
distancing,
so
I
would
support
postponing
the
fireworks.
Thank.
B
Would
agree
with
the
majority
of
my
colleagues
in
that
I
think
postponing
it
is
the
best
thing
to
do.
I
would
be
on
board
with
New
Year's
Eve
as
the
best
option,
even
if
it
does
put
Jacksonville
on
the
hook
for
potentially
pain
twice
in
the
same
fiscal
year.
We're
not
talking
about
a
lot
of
money.
I
think
that
we
can
budget
the
10
or
$15,000
at
the
fireworks
cost
if
we
needed
to
so
that's
not
a
real
concern.
I
also
want
to
have
something
that
people
look
forward
to.
B
A
A
H
H
A
J
And
one
of
the
things
I'd
like
to
say
for
the
benefit
of
all
the
council,
because
this
is
a
little
something
that
was
a
head-scratcher
for
me.
You
may
have
remembered
that
when
I
first
brought
this
to
councils
attention
a
little
over
three
weeks
ago,
the
reason
it
was
raised
on
my
radar
was
because
the
agreement
for
the
pyrotechnic
company
does
not
go
to
the
City
of
Jacksonville.
J
That
agreement
has
been
coming
to
the
City
of
Jacksonville
Beach
for
execution,
so
all
of
the
fiscal
requirements,
even
though
the
the
bill
has
ultimately
been
paid
by
the
City
of
Jacksonville.
The
signatory
on
the
agreement
is
with
the
City
of
Jacksonville
Beach,
and
if
we
execute
that
agreement
and
then
back
out
at
a
later
point
in
time,
we
are
on
the
hook
financially
for
the
deposit,
which
is
half
of
the
amount
somewhere
around
I,
think
11,000
or
12,000
dollars.
J
We
are
trying
to
work
with
Jacksonville
to
change
that
proactively
going
forward,
but
right
now
the
the
agreement
that
pops
up
on
my
computer
every
several
days
is
from
the
pirate
company
to
me
on
their
automated
computer
system.
Asking
me
to
execute
the
document
which
I
have
not
done
up
to
this
point
in
time.
Do.
J
Yes,
the
pyrotechnic
company
had
told
us
that
we
had
approximately
a
30-day
window
within
which
we
could
not
make
a
decision
so
to
speak,
but
once
we
got
within
that
30-day
window,
they
would
hold
us
to
the
terms
of
the
agreement,
which
is
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
waited
until
the
first
to
see
where
we
were
with
everything,
because
once
we
get
to
June
4th,
we
are
effectively
within
that
30-day
window.
And
if
we
cancelled
after
that
one
time
and
had
executed
the
agreement,
we
would
be
on
the
hook
financially.
So.
H
If
you,
as
long
as
you
delay,
if
you
delay
executing
the
agreement
with
them,
then
we're
not
held
to
it
until
that
time.
I
think
the
pyrotechnic
company
will
understand
the
situation
that's
going
on.
They
want
to
do
that.
They
would
like
to
do
it
I'm
sure,
because
they
make
money
with
these
shows
and
I.
Think
I,
don't
think
they'd
have
any
problem
waiting
for
the
City
of
Jacksonville
to
make
a
decision,
seeing
that
they
are
it's
all
coordinated
together.
If
we
say
no
city,
Jackson
was
gonna,
say
no
and
that's
not
what
they
want.
A
A
J
Just
keep
in
mind
with
with
New
Year's
Eve.
We
will
have
to
make
a
request
of
the
City
of
Jacksonville,
I,
think,
counsel,
argument
or
counselor
othman
brought
up
the
fact
that
it
is
a
new
fiscal
year.
Once
we
get
past
October
1,
we
would
basically
be
asking
them
to
roll
over
our
25,000
from
this
year
in
the
next
year's
budget.
To
do
two
fireworks
displays
December,
31st
and
July
4th.
J
H
Ellis
can
I
get
an
answer
to
my
question
about.
Is
there
any
more
financial
exposure
to
the
city
other
than
that
deposit
that
we
would
could
potentially
lose,
even
though
the
city
of
Jackson
was
already
committed
to
to
the
pyrotechnic
company?
Is
there
any
other
financial
financial
exposure
that
we
could
not
change
at?
You
know
a
week
before
4th
of
July
and
I'm,
not
sure
if
that's
a
question
for
for
jean-paul
or
or
for
you,
but
my
understanding.
H
J
J
M
H
So
again,
I
guess,
like
my
question,
is:
why
are
we?
Why
are
we
pressing
this
decision
at
this
point
in
time?
Why
don't
we
wait
a
couple
more
tweaks
see
what
happens,
and
let's
do
that.
Also.
I
want
to
correct.
Councilmember
Dumont
said
that
I
that
I
said
that
there
wouldn't
be
any
increased
crowds.
What
actually
said
is
I,
don't
believe
the
crowds
would
be
doubled
in
size.
H
Mister
stop
Ovilus!
Why
is
there
any?
Can
you
think
of
a
reason
that
we
should
not
delay
delay
this
vote
I
mean
delay,
giving
a
direction,
and
so
this
time
I
mean
we're.
Gonna
get
a
lot
of
backlash
from
the
residents
of
Jacksonville
Beach
and
the
area.
If
we
make
this
decision
for
all
the
Duval
County,
because
that's
an
in
session,
that's
that's
what
we're
actually
doing
and
we're
gonna
get
a
heck
of
a
lot
of
backlash
from
the
whole
community
because
of
this
decision.
J
Again,
based
on
our
conversations
with
the
pyrotechnic
company,
their
expectation
is
that
we
execute
the
agreement
for
them
to
move
forward
from
the
scheduling
perspective.
If
we
execute
that
agreement-
and
we
cancel
at
some
point
between
now
and
July.
Fourth-
it's
our
name
on
the
agreement.
We
would
be
on
the
hook
for
that
deposit
money,
which
is
the
50%
of
the
total
charge.
J
H
A
C
A
J
Yeah
we've
been
operating
in
a
modified
format
for
the
past
couple
of
months
now,
both
with
council
meetings
and
with
council
briefings.
Our
standard
practice
was
to
have
the
twice
a
month
meeting
dates
with
the
briefings
earlier
in
the
day
at
5:30
and
the
council
meetings,
starting
at
7:00
p.m.
on
the
same
day,
based
on
our
use
of
the
CMT
to
try
and
conduct
business,
and,
as
you
witnessed
before
this
meeting,
some
of
the
IT
challenges
that
we've
run
into
we've
actually
spread
things
out
to
where
we're
meeting
four
times
a
week.
J
J
The
saving
grace
is
that
the
first
meeting
in
July
is
something
that
we
don't
hold,
and
that
gives
us
a
break
until
all
the
way
to
July
20th,
where
the
recommendation
would
be
that
we
actually
migrate
back
to
our
original
schedules,
which
is
a
5:30
p.m.
council
briefing,
followed
by
a
7
o'clock
council
meeting
and
again
that
would
be
in
person
potentially
in
a
hybrid
format,
with
social
distancing
yet
open
to
the
public.
So
this
was
just
basically
a
stab
at
it.
J
B
J
I
did
I
did
not,
but
I
knew
we
would
bring
it
up
tonight.
At
the
meeting
council
member
Vogel
saying
came
across
some
information,
its
recommendations
from
the
reopening
Florida
Task
Force
in
their
recommendations
for
the
in-person
public
meetings,
is
not
to
occur
until
Phase,
two
of
which
we
are
not
currently
in
nor
we
do.
We
have
any
indications
as
to
when
that
would
actually
occur
with
that
Phil
I'll
give
it
back
to
you
and.
B
To
share
that
language
with
the
council,
let
me
bring
it
up
here.
It
just
says:
phase
2
opening
begins
with
a
successful
phase
1
this
will
occur
when
there
is
no
evidence
of
a
rebound
or
resurgence
of
kovat,
so
I
mean
I,
don't
see
why
there's
a
state
task
force
by
the
governor,
why
we
would
do
something
completely
different
in
reading
that
and
going
through
the
task
force
they're.
Obviously,
a
team
of
experts
I,
don't
feel
like
us.
Laypeople
should
make
a
determination
as
to
when
we
should
have
in-person
meetings
again.
B
A
K
So
if
we
were
to
have
live
meetings
before
July
4th,
as
Cory
said,
it
might
upset
some
her
residents
and
I'm
Cory
I
feel
yeah
I
mean
I
know
our
residents
are,
are
tired
or
fed
up,
and
they
want
to
get
out.
But
at
the
same
time
you
know,
regardless
what
everybody
feels
about
this
virus,
whether
they
feel
so
serious
or
not
a
serious
thing.
It's
real
and
I
think
as
a
city
we
should
have
a.
We
should
lead
by
example,
and
you
know
why
I
love,
sitting
I.
K
E
J
There's
a
little
bit
of
backlog,
a
little
bit
of
backlog
on
the
planning
side
and
also
on
the
special
magistrate
side.
Both
of
those
boards
are
looking
at
going
to
meetings
this
month
in
order
to
start
clearing
out
that
backlog,
but
I
recognize
that
there's
a
difference
between
a
city
council
meeting
and
holding
one
of
the
other
appointed
board
meetings,
so
those
other
appointed
boards
I
believe
all
of
them
are
prepared
to
meet
in
person
in
order
to
conduct
their
business
and
start
clearing
backlog.
But
clearly
the
council
meeting
is
a
different
animal.
J
It
covers
anything
and
everything
so
that
backlog
is
hopefully
going
to
be
handled
within
the
next
two
months,
but
planning
I,
believe
Planning,
Commission
and
I.
Don't
know
if
Miss
Ireland
is
still
on
the
phone
and
could
speak
to
that,
but
I
believe
she's
got
about
a
60
day
docket
that
needs
to
be
cleared,
but
that's
not.
Those
are
not
items
that
would
come
in
front
of
City,
Council,
okay,.
E
J
We
had
some
discussions
about
how
we
would
handle
that
the
conversations
we
had
at
the
staff
level
was
if
the
boards
did
not
want
to
meet
in
person
or
some
didn't
some
didn't.
That
would
create
a
conflict.
How
do
you
tell
someone?
The
special
magistrate
case
can't
go
forward,
but
the
Planning
Commission
can
all
of
the
boards
are
willing
to
move
forward
at
their
discretion,
so
we
are
moving
forward
with
all
of
those
boards.
But
again
each
of
the
functions
that
they
handle
is
independent
from
Council,
so
we're
in
good
shape
with
doing
that.
E
I
mean
my
position
would
be
if
we
can,
if
we
can
start
moving
through
that
backlog
with
our
different
boards.
That
I
would
support
waiting
until
Phase
two
to
get
back
to
our
full
in
person.
Council
meetings
at
this
point
due
to
the
variety
of
issues
that
no
no
knowledge
or
control
of
the
crowd
that
might
come
with
any
given
meeting,
I,
think
and
as
well
as
for
the
optics
as
mentioned
before,
that
I
would
support
maintaining
our
virtual
meetings
at
this
time.
F
To
follow
up
on
what
miss
miss
Hoffman
said:
I
have
been
contacted
by
people
who
have
items
that
they
had
submitted
to
the
Board
of
Adjustment
and
had
been
held
up
for
quite
some
time,
and
they
are
concerned
about
the
the
backlog
and
how
quickly
that
can
can
be
handled,
but
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
the
boards
are
will
are
interested
in
moving
forward
and
addressing
the
backlog,
because
that
is
that
is
important
to
several
people
in
our
community.
So
and
like
Miss
Hoffman,
said
I
would
I
would
support
waiting
till
Phase.
F
B
A
That
leaves
me
and
and
I
have
to
admit
I'm
pretty
compelled
by
what
mr.
Vogelsong
brought
to
the
table
night
I
wasn't
aware
of
that
and
I
agree
that
we
need
to
stand
in
unity
with
the
state
and
do
the
right
things
and
the
consistent
thing
so
I'm
also
opposed
to
starting
any
new
meetings,
with
the
understanding
that,
if
the
boards
are
willing
to
do,
this
I
think
that's
imperative
right
now,
because
I'm
sure,
like
the
rest
of
you,
I've,
received
several
calls
about
variances
and
people
waiting
to
put
in
swimming
pools
and
other
things.
A
J
Just
to
summarize,
the
the
calendar
of
dates
for
the
remainder
of
June
will
remain
in
effect,
as
proposed,
with
the
exception
that
the
June
15th
meeting
will
not
be
in
person.
We
do
that
one
virtually
as
well
and
hopefully
somewhere
between
now
and
the
middle
of
July,
we'll,
hopefully
find
the
state
moving
into
phase
2
and
we'll
keep
the
door
open
for
July
20th.
Being
our
first
in-person
meeting,
I'll
knock
on
wood.

Senior
Planner,
Heather
Ireland
is
currently
on
for
this
particular
meeting
she's
just
going
to
do
a
quick
overview
of
how
we
got
to
where
we
are
today,
with
the
adoption
of
this
particular
ordinance
and
just
briefly
touch
on
a
couple
of
the
highlights
of
what's
contained
within
it.

If
you
could,
please

Always
hitting
the
wrong
button.
Okay,
this
is
not
new
to
you
guys.
We've
been
working
on
this
since
the
fall
of
2019,
but
I'll
give
you
a
quick
refresher
of
how
we
got
to
these
proposed
comprehensive
plan
amendments.
The
city
was
awarded
a
grant
back
in
September
of
2019
through
the
Florida
Department
of
Environmental
Protection,
and
the
purpose
of
that
grant
again
was
to
analyze
the
city's
vulnerability
to
sea
level
rise
more
specifically
how
it
also
impacts
our
community
with
spring
tides
and
storm
surge
on
top
of
that
potential
sea
level
rise.
L
We
contracted
with
Stearns
Weaver
Miller
to
do
all
the
heavy
lifting
for
us
and
they've
done
a
fantastic
job
collected
all
the
data
did
all
the
analysis
put
together
the
phase,
one
summary
report,
which
you
guys
received
last
time
when
we
took
the
resolution
before
you
and
it
gave
us
a
bunch
of
beautiful
maps
again.
Just
to
reiterate
these
proposed
amendments
are
to
meet
the
what's
called
the
peril
of
flood
requirements
of
Florida
Statutes,
which
is
required
for
coastal
communities
through
throughout
the
process.
We
had
two
public
workshops.
L
One
was
in
December
of
2019
and
one
was
in
February
of
2020.
This
item
went
before
the
Planning
Commission
in
March,
and
it
was
before
you
guys
on
April
6th,
which
I
believe
is
our
first
hybrid
meeting
under
resolution.
20:57
2020,
you
guys
voted
to
transmit
these
amendments
to
the
state
for
their
review.
So
we've
done
that
we
sent
that
to
all
the
reviewing
agencies.
We've
received
all
their
comments
back.
There
were
no
objections
by
any
of
the
state
agencies
to
our
proposed
amendments,
so
we
were
happy
with
that
or
so
again.
L
This
is
what
the
impacts
are
going
to
be
and
we
want
to
try
to
reduce
and
mitigate
the
impacts
of
sea
level
rise
that
we
might
see
high
tide
and
storm
surge
events.
So
these
these
things
that
we'd
be
looking
at
this
would
be
a
comprehensive
plan,
amendments,
land-use
decisions,
subdivisions
or
budgetary
process
and
then
any
infrastructure
improvements
that
we'd
be
looking
at
the
next
policy
3:42.
We
do
have
one
proposed
change
from
what
you
saw
before
it's
not
a
Content
change.
It
really
is
just
clarifying
that
the
policy
is
specific.
L
It's
saying
that
we're
going
to
implement
redevelopment
development
principles
and
strategies
and
engineering
solutions
to
reduce-
and
this
is
what
we
just
wanted
to
clarify
those
flood
risks
that
are
identified
in
objective
three
four
four,
which
is
the
sea
level,
rise
the
storm
surge
and
the
spring
tide.
So,
under
this
policy
it
talks
about
strategies
such
as
land
acquisition,
other
opportunities
to
reduce
density
and
intensity
in
our
flood
zones,
number
three:
we're
proposing
amending
the
floodplain
regulations,
room,
an
increase,
our
free
board
for
new
development
and
floodplains
by
a
half
a
foot
limiting
publicans.
L
The
next
policy
is
in
regards
to
site
development
techniques
and
best
management
practices
that
we
would
like
to
evaluate
and
adopt
regulations
related
to
those.
So
things
like
more
stringent
drainage
level
of
standards
are
reducing
the
extent
of
impervious
surfaces
looking
at
shared
access
points
and
cross
connections
for
development,
where
it's
feasible.
Reducing
minimum
pavement
width
for
roadways,
supporting
regulatory
and
financial
incentives
or
for
new
development
that
would
elevate
the
first
floor
on
pilings
to
allow
for
parking
underneath
to
get
that
first
floor
completely
out
of
flood
zones
and
providing
public
education
on
best
practices.
L
A
E
Hand
multiple
questions,
but
they're,
not
super
technical
I,
just
wanted
to
know
so
I.
My
questions
are
more
in
terms
of
practical
application.
Going
forward.
A
few
years
ago,
we
had
a
resident
in
Lake
Sanctuary,
come
to
us
to
for
help
applying
for
a
FEMA
grant,
because
her
have
been
flooded
in
both
of
the
storms
with
these
policies
in
place.
How
would
that
have
impacted,
or
would
it
have
impacted
our
approach
to
helping
her
seek
that
grant
funding
I
mean.
L
E
E
L
E
L
G
Those
incentives
could
be
in
the
form
of
more
flexible
regulations,
or
the
incentives
could
be
tied
to
some
type
of
an
the
some
type
of
a
grant
option.
If
the
city
were
to
have
any
funding
provided
by
the
state
or
the
federal
agencies,
the
city
may
have
some
discretion
in
the
way
that
they,
the
city,
might
be
able
to
allocate
those
grant
dollars.
So
those
are
those
would
be
a
couple
of
examples.
