OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA; AMENDING THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP OF OKEECHOBEE BY REZONING A
CERTAIN TRACT OF LAND MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN, FROM COMMERCIAL
PROFESSIONAL OFFICE (CPO) ZONING DISTRICT TO LIGHT COMMERCIAL (CLT) ZONING DISTRICT,
AMENDING THE ZONING MAP ACCORDINGLY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY AND AN
EFFECTIVE DATE."
2. a) Motion to adopt Ordinance No. 1089 111 Council Member O'Connor moved to adopt proposed Ordinance No. 1089; seconded by Council Member Watford.
b) Public discussion and comments. Mr. Jim LaRue of LaRue Planning Consultants reviewed the Planning staff report findings. The proposed use is not
contrary to the Comprehensive Plan requirements, the Future Land Use is Commercial. The proposed use being
applied for is specifically authorized by Special Exception. The property is currently zoned CPO with a Special
Exception for an Assisted Living Facility (ALF). The proposed use, a Group Home, is an allowable Special Exception
use in CLT. More so, the owner has specifically requested a combined use of an ALF and an Alcohol and/or Drug
Rehabilitation Center. The center falls under the definition of a Group Home.

VI. PUBLIC HEARING CONTINUED.
A. 2. b) Public discussion and comments (for adoption of proposed
Ordinance No. 1089) continued.
The rezoning should not have an adverse effect on the public interest. It is appropriate for the location, is reasonably
compatible with adjacent land uses, and is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns. Surrounding
uses are largely commercial, however there is a residence and multi -family uses to the South. Group Homes are also
a Special Exception use in Residential Multiple Family (RMF) Zoning Districts. The existing residence is located in the
proposed Transitional Commercial Overlay area, and Planning Staff expects it will eventually be used more intensively
for either multi -family or commercial uses. The site is already suitably buffered from adjacent properties to the South,
and East by a concrete fence. All of the existing uses to the North, and West are separated from the facility by
Northeast 7th Street and 2°d Avenue. The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public
facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services; nor should it create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage
problems, or otherwise affect public safety. It has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions.
Mayor Kirk asked whether there were any questions or comments from the public? Mr. Jim Vensel of 2002 South
Parrott Avenue, stated his objection to the rezoning as then the Special Exception would allow two types of group
homes to operate within one structure. He also clarified his statements from the first reading in that his frustrations over
the matter are not aimed at the Council. It is with the granting of the Special Exception. Commenting further, "this is
not going to be a good thing. Drug and alcohol rehabilitation is needed in this community, but it does not need to be
in combination with our elderly."
Attorney Tom Conely whose office is at 401 Northeast 61h Street, joined Mr. Vensel on his concerns. Stating further,
his 97 year old mother is there and doing very well. It is a wonderful facility and they are pleased with the staff and
care. However, they hoped this would not continue and could not believe the zoning regulations allows for a
combination of the uses. He could not envision how those two types of facilities could mix in one complex and have
the safety that is needed.
Mr. Tom Janowski of 1260 Southeast 23'd Street spoke of his opposition towards the rezoning along with another
concerned citizen whose mother is a resident at the facility.
Ms. Karyne Brass, Planning Board Member, asked Council Member Maxwell, to elaborate his concerns voiced at the
first reading. Council Member Maxwell stated he voted against the first reading since his concern was the contingency
of the Special Exception and the broader defined category of a group home. He is interested in all the concerns
expressed, but questions whether the two types of uses can co -exist. However, through further research, by calling
other ALF's within the state, he has found some comfort in that the state professional license regulators may alleviate
everyone's concerns. In order for the drug rehabilitation to be licensed to operate at the existing ALF, there are many
requirements that will have to be met. If they cannot, then the State will not issue a license.

resident and stated her objections to the rezoning in that her grandmother resides at the ALF, but did not offer her
grandmothers name.

A. Motion to adopt proposed Resolution No. 12-07, revising and
adopting Commercial Rates and Fees for Solid Waste Collection -
City Attorney (Exhibit 2).
Council Members Watford, Maxwell, O'Connor and Mayor Kirk disclosed that they spoke with either the applicant or
opposed and concerned citizens. Council Member Williams noted he received messages of opposition on his
answering machine. The Council discussed the matter at length. The situation is difficult due to the fact that rezonings
cannot be passed with any conditions. In order to deny a rezoning there has to be clear facts that the property is not
a good fit for all the permitted uses listed in the zoning district. The petition meets all the requirements, as outlined in
the Planning Staff Report and noted previously.

Council Member Watford moved to adopt proposed Resolution No. 12-07, revising and adopting Commercial Rates
and Fees for Solid Waste Collection; seconded by Council Member Maxwell.
Attorney Cook read proposed Resolution No. 12-07 by title only as follows: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF
OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA REVISING THE COMMERCIAL RATES SCHEDULE FOR SOLID WASTE COLLECTION
AND DISPOSAL SERVICES WITHIN THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2012-2013; PROVIDING
FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
Administrator Whitehall explained the reason this item was postponed twice, was to renegotiate the rates. Mr. Jeff
Sabin, Government Affairs Manager for Waste Management (WM) was in attendance and he was asked how the City
rates compare to the County's. Mr. Sabin answered the commercial rates are within four to six dollars per month and
within thirty cents for residential. The disposal rate for the Municipal Solid Waste is $35.00 per ton and has been frozen
until 2016. The discussion of fuel costs ensued as it is one of the largest variables for the rates.

A. Motion to adopt proposed Resolution No. 12-07, revising and Council Member Watford asked whether WM was utilizing alternative methods for energy efficiency. Mr. Sabin
adopting Commercial Rates and Fees for Solid Waste Collection answered they are using Compressed Natural Gas to refuel some of their fleets. They began the change out in

surcharge and keeps them more competitive. Mr. Sabin also responded yes to the question, when fuel prices go down

requested the City share in the cost, which is approximately $4,000.00. The City was not asked to share in the costs
of the first sign, as they were contributing quarterly financial assistance to OKMS at that time. Mrs. Burroughs also

North Park Street medians, which has a deadline of October 1, 2012, and are currently negotiating with Goodbread

E. Motion to approve a recommendation to fill the position of Public Administrator Whitehall presented a recommendation from the interview committee, composed of him, Mayor Kirk, and
Works Director - City Administrator (Exhibit 6). current Public Works Director Robertson, for Council to consider offering the Public Works Director position to Mr.
David Allen of Loxahatchee.
The City received 17 applications for the position, 16 of which were considered qualified. In addition to Mr. Allen, the
committee interviewed Mr. Steve Dobbs, Mr. Randy McCall and Mr. Russell Ryan all from Okeechobee; Mr. Donald
Freedland of Boca Raton and Mr. Steve Cramer of North Palm Beach.
Mr. Allen's employment can start immediately, pending required pre -employment screenings. The committee is also
recommending a change in how Department Head salaries are handled. Historically Department Heads have not had
the $1000 withheld from their annual salaries while on probation. The recommendation is that the starting annual
salary be $62,500.00 during the three month probation, then to Step 1 Annual Salary of $63,500, after the evaluation
period is completed satisfactory. Department Heads are offered up to nine months to adhere to the residency
requirements. However, up to 12 months is being requested. Department Heads are also provided City vehicles to
drive. It was clarified that Mr. Allen would not be driving the City vehicle to and from his residence until he relocated.
The Council briefly discussed how the applicant review, ranking, interviews and selection process was handled for this
position, as it was different from past practices, where the applicants were ranked and interviewed during the City
Council meeting by the Mayor and Council. Mayor Kirk noted he was pleased with the process, and he would prefer
at least one member of the Council always be included when using this method.
Council Member Watford moved to offer the Public Works Director position to Mr. David Allen, [as recommended by
the interview committee, with an annual starting salary of $62,500.00 increasing to $63,500.00 after the three month
probationary period; and extend compliance of the residency requirements to 12 months]; seconded by Council

Council Member Maxwell took photographs after the storm of the standing water, and questioned the adequacy of the
Southwest 21" Street drainage project. Administrator Whitehall advised the project has been awarded, and should
be completed by the end of the year. However, the Rim Canal is a big factor in the drainage issue. Mr. Gary Ritter of
South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), addressed the Council and spoke that with the overall magnitude
of the storm, receiving 10 inches of rain within 16 hours, the systems worked admirably. He suggested that the City,
County and SFWMD compare notes and continue to find solutions.to be better prepared for future storms.

Council Member O'Connor moved to approve the first reading of proposed Ordinance No. 1091; seconded by Council
Member Williams.
Mayor Kirk asked whether there were any questions or comments from the public? There were none. The proposed
budget booklets were distributed to the Council prior to the meeting. The Council did not have any specific areas of
discussion of the budget, except for the salary step plan. The proposed budget includes a 1.5 percent longevity salary
step increase for all full-time employees and a step plan for part-time employees excluding the Mayor, Council and
City Attorney. Council Member Watford wanted to thank City Staff and Department Heads for a job well done, stating
further the economy is still in dire straits and now is not the time to implement any type of salary increases.
Finance Director Riedel along with Administrator Whitehall advised Council that even though the City budgets reflects
the use of reserves, City Staff has been very conscientious with their expenditures and has proven well by not using
all of the anticipated funds. The last three years budget's reflects as follows: 2009/2010 Fiscal Year budgeted the use
of $159,468.00 from reserves, zero dollars were actually used. 2010/2011 Fiscal Year budget approved the use of
$272,618.00 from reserves, and only $28,276.00 was used. Current Fiscal Year, 2011/2012 budgeted $397,498.00
from reserves and thus far it is projected to only need $42,674.00.00.
Council Member Watford moved to amend proposed Ordinance No. 1091, to hold salaries to the current Fiscal Year
2011/2012 budget with no step increase for Fiscal Year 2012/2013; seconded by Council Members Williams.
Mayor Kirk commended the Council for their wise and frugal decisions which has left the City in a good fiscal position.
Since the cost of living has gone up and City Staff has continued to meet expectations and cut budgets, he was in
favor of granting a salary step increase. Council Members O'Connor, Maxwell and Williams agreed.

ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE
Petition No. 12-001-R, was submitted by Mr. Muhammad Nooruddin on behalf of property owners A.M.S.A. Holdings,
LLC and E,A.A.A.S. Holdings, LLC, for property located at 608 NE 2ntl Avenue, to change the Zoning on Lots 3 to 6 of
Block 76, City of Okeechobee, from Commercial Professional Office (CPO) to Light Commercial (CLT).
Planner Brisson addressed the Board to review the proposed rezoning. Code Book Section 70-340 of the Land
Development Regulations requires that the reviewing body find that an application for rezoning meets the following
conditions: The proposed use is not contrary to the Comprehensive Plan requirements since the Future Land Use
classification is Commercial. The proposed use being applied for is specifically authorized under the Zoning District. The
property is currently zoned CPO with a Special Exception for an Assisted Living Facility (ALF), The proposed use, a
Group Home, is a Special Exception use in CLT. However, the owner has offered that they will be using the ALF on the
second floor and an Alcohol and/or Drug Rehabilitation Center on the first floor. This falls under the definition of a Group
Home, which should not have an adverse effect on the public interest.
The proposed use is appropriate for the location, is reasonably compatible with adjacent land uses, and is not contrary
or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns. Surrounding uses are largely commercial, however there is a residence
and multi -family uses to the South. Group Homes are also a Special Exception use in Residential Multiple Family (RMF)
Zoning Districts. The residence is located in the proposed Transitional Commercial Overlay area, and Planning Staff
expects it will eventually be used more intensively for either multi -family or commercial uses. The site is already suitably
buffered from adjacent properties to the South, and East by a concrete fence. Ail of the existing uses to the North, and
West are separated from the facility by Northeast 71h Street and 2"d Avenue. The proposed use will not create a density
pattern that would overburden public facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services; nor should it create traffic
congestion, flooding ordrainage problems, orotherwise affect public safety The proposed use has not been inordinately
burdened by unnecessary restrictions.
Planning Staff recommends approval of the petition and permitting the applicant to apply for a Special Exception use
for a Group Home. However, it is suggested that during consideration of the Special Exception to allow establishment
of a Alcohol andlor Drug Rehabilitation Center that special conditions be added.

(Exhibit 2).
Chairperson Hoover yielded the floor to Mr. Nooruddin, who explained that the Alcohol and/or Drug Rehabilitation
patients would be permitted on the first floor only. They would not be permitted to drive themselves to the facility and
would be required to sign a form that would state that they would not be able to leave the facility until authorized.
Several Board Members asked specific questions and raised concerns of combining these two types of facilities in one
building and for surrounding families. Mr. Nooruddin offered various methods that will be put in place to keep the ALF
residences separate from the rehabilitation clients, as well as the requirements of them to be in the program.
Chairperson Hooveropened the Public Hearing at6:42 p.m. and asked whetherthere were any questions orcomn gents
from the public. There was none.

treatment in six to eight of the beds on the ground floor. Ultimately, he may wish to use all 32 of
the beds in the facility for the alcohol/drug rehabilitation services. An alcohol/drug rehabilitation

Section 70-340 of the Land Development Regulations requires that the reviewing body find that
an application for rezoning meets each of the following conditions. The Applicant has provided
comment to each of the required findings. These are repeated in this Times Roman typeface.
Staff comments follow the Applicant's statements and are shown in Arial typeface.
1. The proposed use is not contrary to Comprehensive Plan requirements.
"The property is located within Comprehensive Plan requirements. Future map is within
Commercial."
Staff Comment: The proposed zoning is not contrary to the general Comprehensive Plan
requirements for properties classified as Commercial on the Future Land Use Map. Further,
the subject property is located within the second block east of US 441, thereby falling within
the area proposed as the Transitional Commercial Overlay Future Land Use Subcategory
where CLT is generally considered a compatible zoning designation. There are also other
areas similarly situated along NE 2nd Avenue that are zoned CLT.

2. The proposed use being applied for is specifically authorized under the zoning district in the
Land Development Regulations.
"The property is currently zoned "CPO" with Special Exception for Assisted Living
Facility."
Staff Comment: The proposed use, Group Home, is a Special Exception use in the CLT
zoning district. The specific proposed use is an alcohol and/or drug rehabilitation center.
This use qualifies under the definition of Group Home. The definition is presented below
with the sections specifically applicable to the proposed use highlighted.
"Group home means a building designed or used as permanent or temporary
living quarters for six or more unrelated persons in which individual cooking
facilities are not provided. Included in such designation, but not limited to,
are such facilities as residential facilities and comprehensive transitional
education programs under F.S. ch. 393; domestic violence centers under F.S.
ch. 415; community residential homes in excess of six persons under F.S. ch.
419;. and such similar facilities as authorized by law, and for which licensing is
first required by law, and for which licensing is first required by the state.
department of children and families and/or the agency for health care
administration, or other state or federal agency.
3. The proposed use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest.
"We will use 6 — 8 beds initially for detox purposes, where patients drop off for detox
treatment anywhere from 1 = 4 weeks as an average. It will be good for Okeechobee since
there is no detox center in Okeechobee."
Staff Comment: We agree there should be no adverse effect upon the public interest,
particularly if patients are driven to the facility, dropped off, are unable to leave the facility
until released and are picked up by friends or relatives.
4. The use is appropriate for the location proposed, is reasonably compatible with adjacent
land uses, and is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns.
"North of the building is Heavy Commercial. South: Vacant land. East of the building is
Heavy Commercial or CPO. West of Building is Heavy Commercial (repair service)"
Staff Comment: CLT zoning and its allowable uses are reasonably compatible with the
zoning and uses on adjacent properties, which uses are largely commercial. One property
is zoned RSF1 and used as a single-family residence. This property is also adjacent to
RMF zoning which also allows Group Homes as a Special Exception use. Given that the
3
�r
Staff Report Applicant's Name: A.M. S.A. Holdings, LLC
Rezoning Request Petition No. 12-001-R
single-family home is also located in the Transitional Commercial Overlay area, we expect it
will eventually be used more intensively for either a multi -family or commercial use. We do
not believe the operation of an alcohol/drug rehabilitation center will be contrary or
detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns within the Transitional Commercial Overlay area.
The proposed use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, or be a
deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property.
"The proposed use of the property will not affect value or living condition. 4 - 6 beds use of
ground floor for detox will not adversely affect property value."
[Staff Note: We believe the actual proposal is for 6 — 8 beds for detox use.]
Staff Comment: For the same reasons given in our comments to number 4, above, we do
not believe the proposed rezoning and use will adversely affect property values or living
conditions, nor will it be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent
properties.
6. The proposed use can be suitably buffered from surrounding uses, so as to reduce the impact
of any nuisance or hazard to the neighborhood
"'The proposed use of CLT will [be] suitably buffered within surrounding properties. It will
be no hazard to the neighborhood. It will be business within existing business. There will
not be any additional parking required, as patients will be dropped off."
Staff Comment: The building and grounds are already suitably buffered from adjacent
properties to the south, southeast and east by walls. All of the uses to the north, northwest
and west are separated from the facility by public roads.
7. The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities
such as schools, streets, and utility services.
"The proposed use of the existing business has/will not affect the facility's utilities usage
more than the current usage. 4 — 6 beds of detox (or in future may convert total facility to
patients with detox) will keep the same usage of utilities as currently."
[Staff Note: We believe the actual proposal is for 6 — 8 beds for detox use.]
Staff Comment: There will be no increase in the number of beds in the facility, therefore
there will be no change in the density or any other factor that wouldoverburden any public
facilities.

8. The proposed use tihill not create trafrc congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or
otherwise affect public safety.
"Patients with,Detox Rehabilitation most likely [will bet dropped off to the facility. They
will be living in facility as the current residents are ,living. Maximum number will not
exceed the 32. (If we decided to go that route in the :future.)"
Staff Comment: There will be no increase in the number of beds in the facility, therefore
one would not expect any increase in traffic. Similarly, the physical facility will be
unchanged and no effect upon flooding, drainage patterns or any aspect of public safety.
9. The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions.
"We have to get/apply for State license prior to admitting any detox drug and/or alcohol
rehabilitation patients. Otherwise, there are no restrictions."
Staff Comment: The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary
restrictions.
Staff recommends approval of the request to rezone the property from CPO to CLT thereby
permitting the Applicant to apply for a Special Exception for a Group Home. We do, however,
suggest that during consideration of the Special Exception to allow establishment of a
alcohol/drug rehabilitation (detox) center the following be considered as conditions of any
approval:
1. No patient shall be admitted to the rehabilitation facility unless dropped off by a friend or
relative and that no vehicle in any way associated with the patient or person dropping off
the patient be left at the facility overnight.
2. No patient shall be allowed to leave the building unless accompanied by a friend or relative
picking up the patient upon release from the facility, or accompanied by an employee of the
facility for the purpose of taking the released patient to public transportation for return to
his/her home.

Councilman Watford's response —
Thank you for your email concerning the Heritage. The decision facing the City Council is on the Zoning for the Heritage.
The Special Exception for the drug rehab was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board and is not a decision we can
go back and address. I know there is opposition to the drug rehab, but I am not sure that legally we can deny the zoning if
their request meets all the requirements for re -zoning. We will have to listen to all issues at the public hearing and then
vote accordingly.
Thank you for your thoughts.

Subject: no detox at the Heritage
Dear Council Members,
I am writing because of the proposal to add detox beds at the Heritage Assisted Living Facility. My
grandmother currently lives there and I spend alot of time in the facility. I would like to propose that the council
members spend some time with the residents at the facility and then make a determination whether or not to put
recovering addicts in the home.
Due to the limited mobility, dimentia and general vulnerability of the residents (mostly women over the age of
80), I strongly feel that detoxifying people would prey upon the residents. I moved my grandmother to the
secure facility because of the people who tried to take advantage of her. We feel very fortunate to have found a
home where she is well looked after and safe. If you move addicts into any part of the building, I will have to be
forced to move my grandmother. It is not fair to her because it is a BIG DE to someone her age (90) to
move.
Please look out for our elderly citizens, I am a County voter but grandma lives in the City and will vote
accordingly.
Thank you
Janet Holder

to be unfit for occupancy or use, then the OKMS shall have the ability to exercise one
of the following options: (1) Terminating said lease, whereupon OKMS would forfeit all
rents to date, but not be liable for any further rental hereunder; (2) continue to use the
premises if practical, with rent adjusted by agreement of the parties if the property is
less than fully habitable or useful for OKMS purposes.
USE OF PREMISES: OKMS will be allotted one office for their sole use and reasonable
storage space in the building with the additional office being for the use of the COC. To
avoid conflict, OKMS will need to reserve the conference room in writing with the
Administrative Assistant of the COC. If prior arrangements have not been made, COC use
of the conference room takes precedence.
Page 2 of 5
TAXES: Any taxes or any other assessment caused by OKMS use of the property as
a non-profit enterprise shall be the sole responsibility of OKMS, who shall hold the COC
harmless therefrom, and indemnify COC, including attorney's fees and costs. The OKMS

under the agreement between the Chamber and the client, OKMS will not have access to
these or any other files deemed confidentiality and any other information covered under
the respective client agreement with the Chamber. If OKMS is accidently exposed to any
information marked Chamber confidential, then OKMS should maintain the confidentiality
of said information within their organization. OKMS will be required to sign the
Chamber's confidentiality agreement which will cover all of the above and can be
amended as required.
EQUIPMENT: The parties acknowledge that certain equipment may be installed or used
on the premises; any personal property or equipment affixed to the premises by the use
of bolts, screws, glue or fastening devise shall be considered a fixture, and the property
of COC upon the OKMS vacating the premises.

use to occur, and use the property solely for OKMS business uses.
GENERAL CONDITION OFPREMISES: OKMS shall keep the premises clean, picked
up, painted, orderly, and not in violation of any City or County codes or State statutes.

with by the City.
PERSONALTY: Any property of OKMS remaining on or within the leased premises
ninety (90) days after termination of this lease may be disposed of by COC either by (a)
selling the property to offset monies owed by OKMS under this lease; (b) disposing of
the property at the landfill; or (c) retaining such property for the sole use of COC; all
without any claim therefore by the OKMS.
OKMS PROPERTY: OKMS assumes all responsibility for theft or damage to all
personal property of OKMS or guests stored or used on premises and releases COC
from any and all liability therefore.
DEFAULT IN RENTALS: If OKMS shall fail to pay rent when due, or perform any term
hereof, after not less than three (3) days written notice of such default given in the
manner required by law, the COC, at its option, may terminate all rights of OKMS
hereunder, including retaining any advance deposits, unless OKMS, within said
three days, shall cure such default.
NOTICES: Any notice which either party may or is required to give, may be given by
mailing the same by certified mail, postage pre -paid, to OKMS at the premises or to
COC at the address where the monthly payments of rent are made.

re: Use of Chamber building
Issue: permitting the chamber of commerce to use a portion of the chamber building for
other civic organizations.
As you all know, Col. Hamrick deeded the chamber property to the City of Okeechobee
in 1953, and a copy of that language is attached. The language that states "this deed is given as a
permit to erect a chamber of commerce, to be used for no other purpose" would be considered a
restrictive covenant under the law. This is different from a right of reverter. In a covenant, the use
of land is restricted to a certain defined use, and if that covenant is violated, the original grantor,
or heirs, can enforce that covenant by court injunction. In a right of reverter, title to land can
actually revert to the grantor or his heirs, upon the happening of a defined event set out in the
deed.
The Hamrick deed contains no express or implied language that would cause title to the
land to revert to the trust, therefore, if the trust were to construe the leasing of the chamber
property to another tenant a violation of the deed covenant, their recourse would be the
injunction.
However, where there is no duration of time placed on the restrictive covenant, as here,
the courts could determine it lapses after a "reasonable" passage of time, and the City could raise
this as a defense and request the court to remove this restriction from the property.
Additionally, as the City previously permitted the Tburist Development Board to occupy
the chamber building, with full knowledge by the trust, it could be a defense that the trust has
waived their right to try to enforce the covenant.
Lastly, the proposed use by Okeechobee Main Street, is in reality very little different from
the functions of a traditional chamber of commerce. (definition and article attached), so another
defense would be that this use in no way violates the restrictive covenant in any event.
It is my opinion then, that if the City wishes to permit Okeechobee Main Street to occupy
the chamber building, we are free to do so regardless of any objection from the trust.

What is a Chamber
Chambers of Commerce The Basics
Page of 3
�3
Misconceptions abound regarding many brands, products and organizations. When it comes to the term "chamber
of commerce," confusion and erroneous assumptions are even more likely, even though almost everyone has heard
of the term. The lack of understanding is in large part self-inflicted because chambers in various towns, cities,
regions, states and even nations focus on different things and actually operate in different ways. A chamber of
commerce primer may be helpful. What follows is a "living" document produced by the American Chamber of
Commerce Executives staff. It will be adapted based on input from chambers and others. (Version V, 1112109)
Do', this; : o,:..mlent as ,'a LJ
Definition
A chamber of commerce is an organization of businesses seeking to further their collective interests, while
advancing their community, region, state or nation. Business owners in towns, cities and other territories
voluntarily form these local societies/networks to advocate on behalf of the community at large, economic
prosperity and business interests. Chambers have existed in the US for more than two centuries, with many having
been established before the jurisdictions they represent. A business -led civic and economic advancement entity
operating in a specific space may call itself any number of things - board of trade, business council, etc. - but for
the purposes of this primer, they are atl chambers of commerce.
Chamber missions vary, but they all tend to focus to some degree on five primary goals: Building communities
(regions/states/nations) to which residents, visitors and investors are attracted; Promoting those communities;
Striving to ensure future prosperity via a pro -business climate; Representing the unified voice of the employer
community; and Reducing transactional friction through well -functioning networks. Chambers have other features in
common. Most are led by private -sector employers, self -funded, organized around boards/committees of volunteers
and independent. They share a common ambition for sustained prosperity of their community/region, built on
thriving employers. Most are ardent proponents of the free market system, resisting attempts to overly burden
private sector enterprise and investment.
Local businesses are voluntary paying members of a chamber (non -profits, quasi -public and even public sector
employers also sometimes pay dues to belong). The membership, acting collectively, elects a board of directors
and/or executive council to set policy for, and guide the workings of, the chamber. The board or executive
committee then hires a chief executive (various titles), plus an appropriate and affordable number of staff to run
the organization.
In the majority of countries, the use of the term "chamber of commerce' is regulated by statute, though this is not
the case in the US. Only trademark, copyright and domain name rules protect a chamber's identity - only state
corporation law defines their existence and reason for being. While most chambers work closely with government,
they are not part of government although many consider the process of appropriately influencing
elected/appointed officials to be one of their most important functions.
Currently, there are about 13,000 chambers registered in the official Worldchambers Network registry. There are
roughly 3,000 chambers of commerce in the US with at least one full-time staff person and thousands more
established as strictly volunteer entities.
Membership
Under the private, volunteer membership model, which exists in the USA and many other nations, companies
are not obligated to become chamber members. Membership rolls in a given North American chamber can range
from a few dozen firms to more than 20,000, so there is no real "average" or typical chamber of commerce.
Chambers do not operate in the same manner as a Peoe;r Businesa Ciurerw or trade association, which can bind its
members under a formal operations doctrine (and, thus, can remove them). Businesses and other employers pay
dues to belong and expect to receive the benefits of membership as long as they continue to invest in the
organization. They usually accept any reputable business as a member, though dues investment schedules can
sometimes result in intended or unintended exclusivity.
It is important to note that in most cases it is the company that is the member, not an individual. A member
company is then encouraged to involve numerous senior level employees in the work of the chamber. While five,
ten or more individuals from a given company will identify themselves as "members" of the chamber, only the
organization they work for is counted when a chamber states its size. A company is free to join (pay dues to)
multiple chambers and many mid -size to large firms do so (especially neighbors), in order to further advance their
companies' market or policy interests.
Dues amounts are typically determined by the size of the member company (employee count or annual revenue),
rather than by the number of people engaged in the chamber from that company. Some chambers have adopted pay
-as-you-go or funding models based on specific categories or quantity of services provided to member companies.
Occasionally, chambers will "bundle" memberships, allowing a single dues investment in one organization to qualify
a company for membership in a group of chambers. This is sometimes referred to as "federation" membership and
it can even extend to the national level.
Service Territory
The geography of any one chamber of commerce - often referred to as "service territory" - is seldom defined by any
political or legal jurisdiction. More likely, the territory is defined by the catchment area of a chamber's
membership. The locations of the businesses that compose the membership tend to define the chamber's footprint
and "claim" to a territory. Adjoining organizations often establish formal or informal understandings about borders.
Minority chambers - Hispanic, African -American, Asian - exist in many larger markets. Women's chambers, gay
chambers, German heritage and other demographically focused business groups have been established around the
country.
While a chamber's name (trademarked) is usually drawn from its approximate territory (The Greater Lehigh Valley
Chamber, or the Chicagoland Chamber), there are no rules governing the number of business -led economic

advancement groups (chambers) that may exist in, or serve, a given plot of land. Just within the city limits of
Chicago, there are more than 20 chambers of commerce and similar organizations. Even where a county or regional
chamber has been incorporated and established over generations, there may be dozens of local and town chambers (jJ�•

needs of employers have all played a role in the formation of chambers. At the time many chambers were
established, geographic isolation underscored the need for separate organizations to represent local business and

boards, members and funders would have abandoned them long ago.
As suburban and exurban populations blossomed, new chambers sprung up to promote the interests of business in
those communities. In some cases, a crisis such as a hurricane, or an opportunity, like attracting a rail connection
(a::r•; I or promoting an airport expansion, has led to the formation of a chamber that remains viable for decades. New

CORPORATE SPONSORS recession and increased focus on regionalism appear to be driving increased examination of the benefits of mergers.
Relationships
The chambers in the US and Canada are not bound together under contracts or government regulations. There is no
chapter or franchise arrangement between or among them. There can be very strong relationships between
neighboring organizations, but those relationships are voluntary and informal rather than required or written.
Chambers interact with each other across the nation and the globe - many even maintain formal memberships in
other chambers - but the network is informal. In the chamber world, nobody is "in charge" of anybody; a local
chamber does not answer to a state or national chamber.
Local chambers are often, but not always, paying members of their state and national chambers of commerce. This
connection is one of voluntary membership and does not extend to control or governance. A significant number of
chamber executives also choose to join professional associations of their peers, such as the American Chamber of
Commerce Executives, the Western Association of Chamber Executives, State Chamber Executive Associations, or
the World Chambers Federation. These memberships are for professional development purposes similar to those of
any trade association and, once again, the relationships do not involve the abdication of self-determination.
Policy Independence and Cooperation
The most difficult aspect for the general public, media, government officials and even some businesses to
understand is that there is literally no inherent hierarchical structure in the chamber world. This can be extremely
confusing to those who naturally assume that a few thousand entities sharing the same name must be related and
that some ordered lineage must exist among them. That is simply not the case in the US. When business and
economic policy priorities align, which is usually the case, chambers of all sizes attempt to work together and speak
with a unified voice. Inevitably, conflicting positions will arise about some issues, or about strong positions (or lack
thereof) of chambers at various levels.
To illustrate: The head of a community -based organization like a retired citizen group may wrongly assume that a
position taken by a state chamber is shared and endorsed by their local chamber. Likewise, a large metropolitan
chamber of commerce could take a strong position in favor of an infrastructure project or educational reform
initiative, which wilt not be embraced or supported by suburban chambers operating within the same metro region
Or, a coalition of chambers might unite under the leadership of the United States Chamber (the national business
advocacy organization representing hundreds of thousands of member corporations) to advocate for/against a bill
affecting border crossings, but the coalition may include only a few dozen of the thousands of chambers in the
US. Any individual chamber may take a very visible, contradictory stand on that same international visitor policy.
On certain issues at certain times, the US Chamber can organize thousands of its member chambers and associations
into a unified grassroots lobbying force. Many chambers have also voluntarily entered into a "Federation"
relationship with the United States Chamber, which involves more consistent engagement in federal policy activities
by both the local chamber and its members.
Since businesses are not required to join a chamber (penetration levels vary widely), and because territories
overlap, it can be difficult for any one organization, regardless of size, to state that it "speaks for business," but
they do. They earn that privilege by attracting numerous and large heterogeneous employers to their membership
and leadership, as well as by utilizing their collective voice on meaningful policy initiatives. In general, the smaller
the chamber (and community it represents), the less active the organization will be on the policy/advocacy
front. Even small organizations, however, take stands on regional issues ranging from school funding to road
development.
The processes of choosing and articulating specific policy positions vary by organization and issue. For the most
part, a vote (or expression of consensus) of a chamber board of directors determines the stand to be taken in the
name of that chamber on any issue. In recent years, with the increased involvement of public sector and non-profit
employers in chambers, consensus -building has become more difficult at all levels. Chamber boards are
independent, but they usually take into account the recommendations of state and national organizations when
larger issues are considered.
The US Chamber and state chambers provide local counterparts with extensive background and adaptable sample
documents. Local chambers then debate, adopt, adapt or reject the larger entities' recommendations. Likewise,
Local, regional and state chambers express their opinions about legislation specific to them, in hopes that their
views will be shared, embraced and supported by others. The American Chamber of Commerce Executives provides
access to a Policy Clearinghouse, which enables member chambers to share knowledge about state and local public
policy issues and strategies being employed in various regions to deal with those issues.
Because the chamber world is not structured around an affiliate or chapter model, such disagreements cannot be
solved by a controlling authority. Sometimes the disagreements cause destructive friction which results in bonds
between chambers being broken. More often, chambers issue differing position statements and agree to disagree,
knowing that the opportunity for cooperation on future issues will be critical for them all.

Structure Pil S
Chambers of commerce in the US operate almost exclusively as non-profit entities known as 501(c)(6) O
corporations. Unlike charities, these 501(c)(6) non -profits have the authority under state and federal tax rules to
represent their members in public polity debates. They may lobby and take positions on actual or proposed
legislation, subject to local, state and federal laws. Chambers may legally endorse candidates for public office
and/or ballot propositions (but most do not). The use of general fund revenues for chamber political and lobbying
purposes is strictly regulated. The chief executive or another member of the staff is sometimes a state -registered
lobbyist. The portion of any member's dues investment allocated to direct lobbying is not deductible as a business
expense.
Chamber business models and organizational missions vary significantly. Some chambers may offer services and
products that appear to compete with businesses operating within their own territories. One group of chambers may
affiliate with a service provider to offer discounts or other benefits to chamber members (from low-cost office
products to health insurance), while another group aligns with a completely different vendor. As a rule, larger
chambers tend to rely less on membership dues revenue than their smaller counterparts. About one-third of the
chambers of commerce in the US also include economic development corporations and/or tourism and visitors
bureaus. Virtually all chambers have revenue sources other than dues; event income is the most common.
Although a chamber is a non-profit entity under federal tax law, such a 501(c)(6) is free to undertake supporting
business activities (referred to as "unrelated business income) - publishing, trade shows, insurance programs,
etc. In many cases, these activities are subject to business income taxes.
Many chambers establish charitable/educational foundations, known as 501(c)(3) corporations, to support specific,
eligible parts of the chamber's agenda. The allowable purposes and rules related to such supporting foundations are
different than those that have been established for 501(c)(6) organizations.
(NOTE: In a few cases, for -profit chambers have been established in some communities. These business ventures are
routinely shunned and fought by traditional non-profit chambers.)
The largest metro or state chambers may employ up to 100 people. The vast majority, however, have staffs
numbering fewer than five and budgets under half a million dollars. Chamber professionals serve in jobs covering
most of the disciplines found in other small businesses - communications, finance, marketing, customer service and
event planning. Some chambers specialize in certain activities, such as economic development, tourism, research,
and/or advocacy. Some provide staffing and management to development -related government agencies on a
contract basis.
If You've Seen One...
The term "chamber of commerce" is one of the oldest and most well -recognized brands in the world, but there is
significant public misunderstanding of its meaning. There is an old adage in the chamber world: "If you've seen one
chamber, you've seen one." Others who find themselves frustrated with a desire to apply universal truths to
chamber of commerce models point to the Chinese parable of the seven blind men touching different parts of an
elephant and coming away describing it differently ("It's a snake ... no it's a tree ... no it's a brush on a rope . .
."). In all cases, the whole of a chamber of commerce is greater than the sum of its parts, programs, people and
participants.
Additional Notes on International Chambers
In many countries around the world, membership in the chamber of commerce is mandatory under national laws,
with fees collected under some part of the business permit or taxation process. These organizations are referred to
as "public law" chambers. Many of them boast memberships in hundreds of thousands, since literally all legitimate
businesses must belong. Chambers in the UK, Canada, Australia and Eastern Europe tend to operate on a voluntary
membership basis like the US. In the European Union and much of Asia, public law chambers are more prevalent
The government advocacy activities of these chambers are, of course, substantially different than those in the US,
but many of the issues addressed by these public law chambers would seem familiar to chambers of commerce in
North America - i.e.: workforce, infrastructure, economic development, education, community image, etc. The
issues are similar, but the business models are dramatically different, since they have government -sanctioned
status, rather than corporate identities.
Many chambers around the globe belong to regional associations such as Eurochambres or the Mediterranean
Chambers of Commerce. The World Chambers Federation ties a few thousand chambers from around the world
together into one loose association, which operates under the auspices of the International Chamber of Commerce
in Paris. The WCF meets every other year for a World Chambers Congress.
Entities nicknamed "Am-Chams" exist in many large markets around the world - i.e.: The American Chamber of
Commerce of Singapore, or the Egyptian Am-Cham. These organizations involve the American companies operating
in these locales, as well as the local firms doing business with US firms. They focus on trade issues, but also on
regulatory climates in the host countries.

City Council, which incorporates some of the job duties formerly held by the
City Engineer's position.
A committee composed of the Mayor Kirk, current Dir Pub Wks Robertson
and Administrator Whitehall interviewed the top six of the 16 qualified
applicants. We all agreed that Mr. Allen's interview went very well! He is
personable, articulate, well educated and should make a great addition to our
staff.
Through a ranking system which included the application review, interview,
office aptitude, and an in -the -field review, he received the highest score.
1. Starting wage $62,500
2. Three (3) months probation (Personnel Code Ch 2, `Qualifications'

SS SE 3rd Av., Okeechobee, FL 34974
°1915 `}dO City Council meeting of Sept 4, 2012
• Commercial garbage rates w/ Waste Management — Res No 12-07 for
f/y/e 2013 commercial garbage rates is on the Agenda. I've attached the
current matrix, the July proposed, last year's rejected and the 2010 also
used in 2011. Jeff Sabin to appear at the meeting.
The residential rate - At last meeting the City approved Resolutions that resulted
in garbage rates of $18.72/mo%ustomer... a net increase of 1.4%, or $3.12 a
year. That's an annual rate of $224.64 and I saw in the Okee News where
the County's rate is now at $217.52... theirs increasing about $24.50/yr.
Last year the City negotiated a rate freeze (in lieu of a 3.6% residential and 4.5-
5.3% commercial increase) and a 4% cap on non -fuel related fees (essentially
the CPI factor), along w/ a 3-yr contract extension w/ WM. The contract now runs
through 9130117. The contract uses the May CPI each year to determine the
following rates.
• Okeechobee Main Street is on Agenda to request approval for:
1. The City `welcome' sign is apparently for the north area of town.
2. Carquest, 300 NW Park, SR 70, mural project
• Chamber of Commerce sublease to Okeechobee Main St — is on the
Agenda and the lease is an Exhibit. I've also enclosed in the packet a
printed power point explanation, along with a memo from Atty Cook
relating to Gil Culbreth's opinion on the Hamrick Trust interpretation that
the Main Street occupancy may be in conflict with their view.
• CDBG Housing rehab project bids — At the last meeting the Council approved the
following rehab projects: Shirley Roberts, 915 NW 9th St, Debra Leon, 604 NW
15'h St, Judy Curtis, 209 SE e A

• Parking related issues & Business License issuance - Over the past few
years one of the biggest complaints we have is Code compliance on
parking and periodically denying licenses because of a lack of available
parking. I am constantly putting myself in a Code compromising position
by trying to figure out a way to, well frankly, circumvent the Code in an
effort to be pro -business while still justifying compliance and thinking of
the more far reaching ramifications.
I'm well aware of the contradiction to relax the Code in as much as the
parking requirements weren't just drawn out of thin air ... it just takes so
much parking for certain types of uses and the City is simply protecting the
public's interest. Nevertheless, I receive a barrage of complaints from
applicants, owners, and Councilmen about applying what they all think is a
common sense approach.
Some time ago, the City Council did relax parking requirements in allowing
a new business/same use in a prior existing facility that didn't meet current
parking standards.

914112 Activity Rpt Cont'd —
Engineering Agreement for the Applebee's turn lane — The City opened
RFQs on July 16th and the Council approved the Committee's
recommendation of Culpepper & Terpening at the August 21, 2012
meeting... approving the contract. You might recall that you were supplied
with an earlier rendition of the contract at the meeting and I had hoped to
have the updated contract the night of the meeting, but didn't have it
available. Because the number of changes were significant as indicated
on the attached memo (distributed to you w/ the last activity report) we
wanted to have the new original agreement reaffirmed by you and same
has been placed on the Agenda.
The Pension Board met on Aug 30 to review what their Investment
Consultant (IC) has construed as weak performance on the fixed income
portfolio. The IC added that the pension is in `sound condition' otherwise.
At the budget workshop, I mentioned to you about developing a pension
`employer -contribution' approach in considering any modification. We will
be working on that in the coming weeks.
There has been some discussion by the OUA to have the actuary develop
a study on splitting the City and OUA General Employees part of the
pension.
FDOT County -wide 5-year funding program — Enclosed find the 10-page
FDOT work program for projects throughout the County.
Workforce Solutions unemployment report is attached.
Building Dept / General Services:
• Zoning change (Ord 1089 2nd rdq) on Agenda - Dr. Muhammad
Nooruddin for 608 NE 2nd Av submitted for a zoning change from
Commercial Professional Office (CPO) to Commercial Light (CLT) in order
to accommodate a special exception allowance for part of the facility to
become a group home (rehabilitation and drug detox center). I contacted
Bill Brisson again, after the meeting, to confirm that really the Council is
charged with the duty of determining whether or not the zoning change is
appropriate... not the special exception. By the way, Mr. Brisson will not
be at the meeting but Jim LaRue will be.
• DEO 9/1/12 deadline to send appraisal notification letter— recognizing that
LDRs should address a cpl of issues DEO earlier apprised the City of and
I've attached a letter we sent to them.

Public Works:
• Post TS Isaac — We've gathered much information about the storm, incl
pictures and claims info and forwarded it all to the EOC to provide to
FEMA. Chief Smith followed up with manpower from his Dept w/ local
citizens seeking input to use w/ FEMA.
I've been asked to add 'discussion' about Tropical Storm Isaac to the
Agenda.
• Public Works Director Position — On the Agenda is the approval of
recommendation for the newly created Dir Pub Wks position. I distributed
a recommendation letter along with the applicant David Allen's resume'.
I've perfected some of the hiring particulars and reduced it to a memo
which is marked Exhibit 6.
• SW 21 st Storm Sewer County grant funded project — you should've rec'd a
copy of a letter I sent to all SW 21 st St area residents advising them of the
pending construction. I rec'd a timeline graph and am attaching the 1st
page of same herewith. In June, the Commissioners awarded the bid from GO
Underground Utilities, Lake Placid in the amount of $483, 893.00 accepting the
City's contribution of a maximum of $95k to the match portion of the grant funded
project.
• Roundabout replacing signal at SW 5"' A and S Park St — I spoke to Culpepper
and Terpening (the engineering firm assoc w/ the Applebee's turn lane) about the
roundabout concept and their initial reaction was that they may be able to provide
a draft (free of charge) of how it may work. After I receive that I will forward to
the Council for discussion.
• Building design — house elevation discussion — I've had several
conversations w/ Bill Brisson on a code amendment. And I've reviewed
the changes with Dept Heads. The Bldg Official had some compliance
issues w/ the 25-yr storm event compliance matter as an enforcement
issue. So, am continuing to work on it.
• SR 70 & 441 intersection —
Timeline- Phase l 60% (Jan 2012), Phase /I (Jul 25) 90%, Phase 4 — Nov, Final
12120112, Utility clearances, development of bids and budget timing move the
tentative bid letting to 1214113.

�Z i r" ,
Good morning- (Thr Aug 16 2012 Sam) U �®
As I indicated in a prior email, I wanted to send proposed changes as they came to me and I finally
completed the review process with the City Atty and have just a cpl of additional notes.
1. V. Compensation to Engineer— refers to services under Section III (Additional Services). I've
previously asked the City Atty to include verbiage so as to limiting the City's financial exposure,
particularly in light of the fact of what I explained to you on the financing arrangement. The City
passed a Participating Party Agreement w/ the Applebee's developer(s) wherein any cost over
runs will be absorbed by them, including engineering costs. It places the City and Engineering
group in a compromising position when we are technically outside the financing approval
process for any warranted cost overruns. So, I don't have the exact legal jargon for a 'not -to -
exceed' like contract, but within Section V there needs to be a subsection formalizing the
method of reimbursement for Additional Services not expressly stated in Exhibit A.
In Section V, please add a subsection that calls for a 'change -order' to be approved by both
parties, in the event that additional services are required.
2. V. Compensation to Engineer, a. - refers to services under section IV, which has been deleted
and, therefore should be deleted.
3. VI Deletion of Services— refers to work being deleted and a phrase needs to be added that any
reduction shall 'correspond to a reduction in fees, accordingly'.
4. XII Limits of liability — the agreed limit of liability for performance is $50,000. Atty Cook asked
for clarification as to the definition of the liability and that it be expressly included in the
contract. It's a bit ambiguous.
5. Please add the following to this section:
Section XXI EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
The ENGINEER warrants that there shall be no discrimination against applicants for
services under this Agreement because of race, color, age, sex, religion, and national
origin, place of birth, ancestry or handicap.
Section XXII INDEMNIFICATION
The ENGINEER shall indemnify and save harmless the City and the Florida Department
of Community Affairs, CDBG Section, its agents, servants and employees, from and
against any and all claims, liability, losses and/or cause of action, including, but not
limited to, attorney's fees and other professional fees, and all court costs, arising from or
caused by the negligent acts or omissions of ENGINEER or ENGINEER's members,
employees, agents and others with respect to this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of
Section 768.28, Florida Statutes (2011), the City agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the ENGINEER from and against any actions at law to recover damages in tort for money
damages for injury or loss of property, personal injury, or death arising out of the
performance of this Agreement and caused by the negligent or wrongful act or omission
of any employee of the City while acting within the scope of his or her office or
employment under circumstances in which the City, if a private person, would be liable
to the claimant, in accordance with the general laws of the State of Florida, subject to the
monetary limits of Section 768.28(5), F.S., which monetary limits shall be applicable
regardless of whether such monetary limits would apply in the absence of this
provision.
Thank you for your patience in finally putting this together!

their unemployment rates (due to seasonal factors) and 1 had
an over -the -month decline.
The metro areas with the steepest rates of job decline over the
year were Port St. Lucie (-2.5 percent), Pensacola -Ferry Pass -
Brent (-1.8 percent), Gainesville (-1.5 percent), and Tallahassee
(-1.4 percent).
Based on the Florida Economic Estimating Conference held
July 23, 2012:
• The unemployment rate for Florida was forecasted to
decrease to 8.6 percent by 2012:Qtr3. Florida's July 2012
rate was 8.8 percent.
• The forecast expects the unemployment rate to decrease
to 7.2 percent in fiscal year 2015.
In July 2012, there were 816,000 unemployed Floridians and 264,373 advertised job openings in
the state (Help Wanted OnLine), for a ratio of 3.1 job seekers to every advertised job.
`Unemployment Rate
The unemployment rate is determined by a sample of households surveyed on the week containing the 12th of the month. Persons
are classified as unemployed if they do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks, and are currently available
for work. Workers expecting to be recalled from temporary layoff are counted as unemployed. Unemployment Compensation does
not factor in to the unemployment rate. The employed and the unemployed make up the labor force. The unemployment rate is
calculated by dividing the number unemployed by the labor force.

RE: Evaluation and Appraisal Notification Letter
Dear Mr. Eubanks:
Pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 163.3191, the City of Okeechobee has evaluated its
Comprehensive Plan to determine if plan amendments are necessary to reflect changes in state
requirements since the last update of the Comprehensive Plan.
Our review has indicated that the following changes are necessary to meet changes in State
requirements:
Inclusion of a policy in the Intergovernmental Coordination Element addressing the
requirement under §163,3174(1) to include a representative of the school district appointed
by the school board as a nonvoting member of the local planning agency (LPA) to attend
those meetings at which the LPA considers comprehensive plan amendments and rezoning
that increase residential density.
2. Inclusion of policies in the Future Land Use Element addressing the requirement of
§ 163,3 177(6)(a)3.b intended to achieve the compatibility of lands adjacent to an airport.
The Okeechobee County Airport is located outside of, but close to, the municipal limits of
the City of Okeechobee and therefore the City needs to address this issue.
3. City has not updated its Capital Improvements Element and will need to do so in the near
future. This update will be undertaken before and separate from the Evaluation and
Appraisal Based Amendment in which items 1 and 2, above, will be addressed.
As a result of the above determinations, the City will prepare and transmit its proposed amend-
ments addressing items 1, and 2 above, to the state land planning agency within one year of the
date of this notification letter.

Dear Mark and Paulette:
We learned that you did a good deed for some of our City guys during the recent storm
by supplying a hot cup of coffee just when they needed it! This note is to let you know
that your kindness was not overlooked.
From the bottom of hearts we send a big THANK YOU!
Most sincerely,
Pattir"r-Ro
