There was no response. 3457 84 -33 Chairman Douglas then asked for discussion from the Council. Councilman Watford asked, "We are also changing the sewer connection, correct? Is this something similar to the water situation ?" Director Fortner answered, "Only if the developer is laying his own sewer lines." Councilman. Watford asked, "Is this going to meet the system we have now? Or like where we could maybe have apartments that each one has it's own sewer connection ?" Director Fortner answered, "Well this would be only on the new developments - where the main line is being installed by the developer - the same as the water line being in- stalled. You take it and tap it to the property as the City usually does. That way the City does not have to. It's less for the developer to do this instead of the City." Councilman Watford then asked about the City collecting the revenues. Director Fortner answered, "They would be the same. All that does is allow you to make the connection to the property ". Chairman Douglas asked for any further discussion or a motion. Councilman Knight moved to accept the ordinance. Councilman Watford seconded the motion. Motion carried. AGENDA ITEM #VI - INTRODUCTION - ORDINANCE -TO IMPLEMENT THE FLORIDA FAIR HOUSING ACT Chairman Douglas noted the next agenda item was the introduction of an ordinance amending the Ordinance Code of the City of Okeechobee, Florida; amending Chapter 5, Building and Construction Regulations to provide rules and regulations to implement the Florida Fair Housing Act contained in Chapter 760.20, Florida Statutes and setting a public hearing for Monday, April 16th, 1984, and read the ordinance by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ORDINANCE CODE OF THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA; AMENDING CHAPTER 5, ARTICLE I TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL SECTIONS CONTAINING RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING THE STATE OF FLORIDA FAIR HOUSING ACT; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Chairman Douglas then asked the Administrator to explain the necessity of the ordinance. The Administrator explained, "When we received the scoring for the two applications, which were filed for neighborhood and commercial revitalization and housing, under the Small Cities Community Development Block Grant Program, we learned that we scored "zero" in the area of Fair Housing & Equal Employment Opportunities. I think we can pretty well document in the future equal employment opportunities, but the City had never implemented the State's Fair Housing Act, which is contained in the statutes already. It is a state- ment of policy that is pretty routine and standard which states: "People who are in I II TI I 3458 84 -28 the business of buying and selling real properties as a business will not discriminate because of race, religion, sex, national origin, color, etc." We have taken the state- ment out of the statutes and modified it to suit the Okeechobee situation. I think it will help us to achieve up to an additional one hundred points (the maximum amount allowed under this category) if we decide to file an additional grant. This is the only purpose of this ordinance. It is already an existing State law, but to implement it at the local level - you would have to adopt an ordinance ". Chairman Douglas asked if there were any comments from the audience. There were no responses. Chairman Douglas then asked the Council for any comments. Councilman Watford stated he did not understand why it was a State Law - but it was not a law unless the City adopted an ordinance implementing it. Administrator Fellows explained, "The way it is now - if someone wanted to file a complaint of discrimination in housing they would have to apply to the state to get satisfaction. If we adopt the ordinance they would be able to file the complaint through our building department ". After further discussion by Council members, Councilman Chapman moved to set the ordinance for public hearing on April 16th. Councilman Knight seconded the motion. Motion carried. AGENDA ITEM #VII - PUBLIC HEARING & FINAL READING - ORDINANCE - GROUP HOUSING Chairman Douglas stated the next agenda item was the public hearing and final reading of an ordinance amending Appendix A, Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance for the City of Okeechobee; said amendment is for the purpose of having the Zoning Code conform with the City's Comprehensive Plan in providing Group Housing facilities in Residential General Districts. Chairman Douglas read the ordinance by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND APPENDIX A, THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA; AMENDING THE DISTRICT REGULATIONS TO ALLOW GROUP HOUSING BY A SPECIAL EXCEPTION IN RESIDENTIAL GENERAL (RG -1 AND RG -2) DISTRICTS; AMENDING SECTION 22, DEFINITIONS TO PROVIDE A DEFINITION FOR GROUP HOME FACILITIES; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. sked if anyone in the audience had any comments to make at this time. Citizen Andy Rubin asked if this ordinance was being passed in conjunction with the Group Homes we have already and with any others we might have in the future. Attorney Conlon answered by stating, "The first ones that came up - came in under the definition, in the statutes, "boarding houses" because there were no other definitions appropriate. So the Regional Planning Council stated in order to create a more clear de- finition - we needed to amend the ordinance ". fir 1 3459 1 3 _ 84 -26 Chairman Douglas asked if the Council had any comments to make. Councilman Watford stated he felt that the ordinance should include a request for licensing requirements by the Health & Rehabilative Services. Attorney Conlon stated he felt that this was an excellent request, and it would not require any amendments. Councilman Watford then suggested that there be some type of limitation included which states so many houses per blank amount of feet. Attorney Conlon said that since there was not anything in the ordinance, as it is, concerning density, it would require a title change and additional advertising. The Administrator stated, "I will read this provision to see if it sounds right - Group Housing - It is defined to be residential in nature with no more than ten (10) un- related persons per unit, including full time staff persons residing thereon and possessing the appropriate license from the Department of Health and Rehabilative Services ". Councilman Watford moved to amend the definition to include licensing as read by the Administrator. Councilman Knight seconded the motion. Motion carried. Councilman Watford questioned, "So we could not add a limiting factor in the ordi- nance?" Attorney Conlon answered, "I would think the limiting factor would need to be in another ordinance because it's a prohibitive factor ". Chairman Douglas asked for any further discussion. There being no further discussion, Councilman Knight moved to accept the ordinance as amended. Councilman Chapman seconded the motion. Motion carried. AGENDA ITEM //VIII- FURTHER ACTION BY COUNCIL ON A REQUEST FROM LOCAL CONTRACTORS TO DIVIDE SEWER COLLECTION SYSTEM Chairman Douglas began the discussion by stating the main cost for the sewer collec- tion system would be the Engineering fees,(each time the job is divided it will cost the City Fifteen Thousand, Two Hundred Dollars),and then opened the floor for further dis- cussion by Council members. Chairman Douglas stated, "I personally feel like we have it broken down into two separate bids, presently, and for the City to spend that amount of money to break it on down - I would prefer the Council to allow, or insist as much as possible, on whoever bids, that they would try to work out the sub - contracting with the local contractors if they could ". Councilman Watford stated, "I agree with you - but is there some wayin the bidding process to ask for a statement on their subcontracting policy ?" T I 111 I [ 3460 84 -25 Engineer Broome replied by saying, "Yes, you could require it. We already have in there (the contract or bid specs) a list of their subs ". Attorney Conlon stated, "This could show just who gets the bid ". Councilman Chapman asked, "Will L.C. and the Engineer still inspect everything - in every phase ?" Director Fortner acknowledged they would do the inspections. Councilman Knight stated he agreed to keeping the project divided into two jobs as it is. Councilman Watford stated, "Like I said before, just because we break the job up - it does not necessarily mean a local contractor would receive the bid ". After further discussion, Councilman Watford moved to go ahead with the bidding pro- cess on the project as is without dividing it any further (the Farmers Home Project). Councilman Knight seconded the motion. Motion carried. Citizen Andy Rubin asked, "What were those votes again ?" Council answered, "Four votes to go ahead with the bidding process and leave the projects as is ". Jack Williamson, owner of Rock -A -Way, addressed Council and stated that Rock -A -Way intended to bid on one of the projects -maybe all of them. AGENDA ITEM #IX - PUBLIC HEARING - TABLED ORDINANCE - RE- INTRODUCED AS FIRST READING Councilman Watford moved to take this item off the table. Councilman Chapman seconded the motion. Motion carried. Councilman Watford made a motion to re- introduce the ordinance on the use of master meters at this time. Councilman Chapman seconded the motion. Motion carried. Chairman Douglas read the ordinance by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ORDINANCE CODE OF THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE; AMENDING CHAPTER 18, ARTICLE II, SECTION 18 -18 TO PROVIDE AN EXCEPTION FOR MASTER METERS; AMENDING CHAPTER 18, ARTICLE II TO ADD SECTION 18 -36 TO PROVIDE RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE USE OF MASTER METERS; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Citizen Andy Rubin addressed Council and asked if the owners had to request a master meter. The Administrator replied by stating, "It is the intent of the ordinance to give the City the flexability of providing master meters when it is to the benefit of the contractor or the City to do so, with the approval of the City Council ". Councilman Knight moved to set the ordinance for final public hearing on April 16th. Councilman Watford seconded the motion. Motion carried. 1 1 1 fir It T 3461 84 -3 AGENDA ITEM #X - RESOLUTION - NORTHEAST 7TH AVENUE PAVED BY SPECIAL ASSESSMENT Chairman Douglas introduced the next agenda item being the adoption of a resolution creating the Northeast 7th Avenue Special Assessment District; providing for paving improvements of Northeast 7th Avenue, a distance of 1,300 feet north from the old city limit ditch; providing an assessment roll; and setting of a public hearing relative to the special assessment charges for Monday, April 16th, and then read the resolution as follows: WHEREAS, the City of Okeechobee may provide for certain public improvements and provide for the payment of such improvements by levying and collecting special assessments on the abutting, adjoining, contiguous or other specially benefited property, and WHEREAS, the City of Okeechobee has received a petition from the owners of property abutting a portion of Northwest Seventh Avenue extension, and WHEREAS, the City Council has indicated its desire to provide for the paving of the Northwest Seventh Avenue extension by special assessments, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA as follows: Chairman Douglas asked for any discussion. Councilman Knight asked, "What was the controversy (purpose) of this resolution ?" Attorney Conlon stated, "This has to be done while it is still under the same ownership to get a lien on record, so the City will not have to get involved in trying to figure out who owns it (the property) and transferring it before we get it down and established." The Administrator noted that item number six needed to be eliminated from the re- solution. The Administrator suggested to the Council that the following streets be included for paving at the same time as Northeast 7th Avenue: Southeast 17th Street, adjacent to the Pancake House (because the City had a commitment there, from the Pancake House and Phillip Berger, in which Mr. Berger and the Pancake House would pay $900.00 each to share in the expense of that improvement); Southeast llth Avenue (4th Street to the dead end); and Southwest 6th Avenue (19th to 21st Street). Councilman Knight asked how much would this cost. The Administrator - stated, "What we would ask you to do is to let us prepare typical sections and advertise them and bring them back to the Council, after the public hearing on the Special Assessments, on May 7th ". Councilman Watford asked, "Is this going to be paved just to the City limits ?" Administrator Fellows stated, "Yes. That is correct. Mr. Wilcox is going to talk with the property owners to see if he can work out something to where the additional three hundred or so feet would be paved up to 18th Street." 1 1 11 TTf ■ 1 3462 84 -22 Councilman Watford asked, "What needs to be done tonight ?" Administrator Fellows answered by saying, "Adopt the resolution tonight, send a notice to the property owners and give them an opportunity to be heard as to the fairness of the assessment." Councilman Chapman asked if the additional streets named were to be paved by special assessment also. Administrator Fellows answered, "No, just Northeast 7th Avenue ". Councilman Chapman asked if Southeast llth Avenue was on the paving list. Administrator Fellows answered, "Yes its third on the list." Citizen Andy Rubin asked how much money was being taken out of the paving fund. The Administrator answered by saying we would not know until the bids were received. Councilman Watford moved to adopt the resolution eliminating item number six. Councilman Knight seconded the motion. Motion carried. Chairman Douglas asked if it was agreeable with Council to include the additional streets for paving. Councilmen Chapman, Knight and Watford voted Yes. Chairman Douglas told the Administrator to go ahead and request bids. AGENDA ITEM #XI - FURTHER DISCUSSION BY COUNCIL - WATER SERVICE FOR INDUSTRIAL PARK Chairman Douglas introduced the next agenda item being further discussion by City Council relative to fire protection requirements and water service requirements at the Okeechobee County Industrial Development Authority's Industrial Park and then asked the attorney to begin the discussion. Attorney Conlon stated, "I have dictated a letter to the Administrator which he has had typed up, stating that the IDA would sign prior to receiving any water. It dealt with them advising all tenants that the water that was being supplied was drinking water and not intended for the City to be representative of providing fire protection. Also in the letter is some language about holding the City harmless for fire protection. There was a meeting with Kyle VanLandingham, County Attorney, Mr. Fellows and Mr. Phillip Berger and Director Fortner. The consensus of the meeting was that they (the IDA) agreed to the provision, and that they would take service from a master meter, the lines would be theirs and any fire plugs would be theirs and if any meters are put in for the customers they will have to put then in and read them themselves and that they would give that disclosure to the tenants. They also agreed not to sell any water. So I am waiting to get something from the Council on the exact language but there is no problem with the concept. I think the problems are basically worked out with the water lines ". 3463 8'4 -31 Chairman Douglas asked for any questions or comments. Discussion ensued among Councilman Watford, Attorney Conlon, Fire Lieutenant Suit, and Citizen Andy Rubin concerning the possibility of annexation. AGENDA ITEM #XII - PUBLIC HEARING AND FINAL READING- ORDINANCE - BUDGET REVISION Chairman Douglas read the ordinance by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE BUDGET ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE FOR THE PERIOD YEAR OCTOBER 1, 1983 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 1984 PRO- VIDING FOR ADJUSTMENTS IN REVENUES; PROVIDING ADJUSTMENT TO EXPENDI- TURES; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. and stated that this was for public hearing and final reading and asked for any comments. Citizen Andy Rubin asked if this was replacing the paving money the Thirty -Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000.00) budgeted for paving. Councilman Watford noted it has been determined that the title of the fund (line item) was "Street Improvements" in which the tractor for Twenty --Five Thousand Dollars was included. Chairman Douglas asked for any further comments. Councilman Knight asked what the Twenty -Five Thousand Dollars was for'building" The Administrator noted that was reimbursement for the construction fund and further noted there were Nine Thousand Dollars worth of change orders and that we authorized another Twenty -Four Thousand Dollars at one time and another Two Thousand at another time. So we had to reimburse that fund. The Administrator then stated, "It's not new money - its already spent." Councilman Watford asked, "Is it necessary for Richard Kelton to come here, are we in that position ?" Administrator Fellows stated it was up to the Council. Councilman Watford asked if we had to have the fire training tower. Councilman Chapman asked, "What do other communities have ?" Administrator Fellows stated, "I have contacted other surrounding cities, con- cerning fire towers, and the cities that have them stated they do use them for training. The Cities that did not have training towers said they wished they did. It's main purpose is to give the firefighters an opportunity of practicing repelling and it's secondary use is to act as a hose rack - to dry the hoses ". In response to a question from Council, Administrator Fellows explained, "Previously the Council had said that they wanted to get rid of the steel tower and we had proposed to move thesiren and put it on top of the new training tower which will cost about Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars to have it done. But that again, is a decision for the Council to make ". J 3464 84-26 Fire Lieutenant Ron Suit addressed Council and stated that the siren started out to be a source to locate and notify volunteers of fires, and that a former Councilman did not like the siren blown and had made a formal request that it not be used. Councilman Chapman stated that there had been complaints from surrounding businesses and that was why the Councilman had requested the siren's use stopped and that pagers had been purchased for the volunteers. Administrator Fellows stated, "Also, if we adopt this budget amendment tonight you are re- allocatingthe Federal Revenue Sharing funds that we have left. Anything we have left - if it hasn't been utilized or re- allocated." Chairman Douglas asked for any further discussion. Councilman Watford stated that he would like for us to do something with the siren because he could not see paying Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars to hook up a siren we were not going to use. Fire Lieutenants White and Metzcher addressed Council stating it was fine with them for the fire tower to be left where it was. Administrator Fellows noted that the cement had already been poured and the poles set for the moving of the tower. Councilman Chapman asked the Administrator to explain budget line item #572 -6300. Administrator Fellows explained, "We have reduced that amount from Five Thousand Dollars to Two Thousand Dollars. That is Fourteen Hundred Dollars for the trees which the Barnett Bank gave. That leaves Six Hundred Dollars for us to do some minor refurbishing if any is required ". Discussion ensued relative to the caretaking of the medians and the new sprinkler system for the V.A. monument area in the park. After the discussion, Chairman Douglas asked if the only change was that the Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars for the siren be deleted from the budget amendment. Council agreed. Councilman Knight then made a motion to approve the budget amendment deleting the Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars for the siren. Councilman Chapman seconded the motion. Motion carried. AGENDA ITEM #XIII - ACTION BY COUNCIL ON AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS 201 PLANT Chairman Douglas introduced the next agenda item being action by the Council granting authority to advertise for bids for the 201 area -wide wastewater treatment plant and asked for any discussions or comments.
