Il Member Watford b) Discussion. Administrator Whitehall reviewed the situation at hand in that this project was first presented to the Council in 2007, at which time Ordinance No. 971 was adopted, closing certain alleys for a proposed multi -family development, Southern Trace, and reserved the right that in the event the developer owner failed to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy within 36 months the alleys would be reopened as of February 2010, and the ordinance be null and void. However, the owners purchased the alleyways from the Hamrick Trust, submitted copies of the recorded Quit Claim Deeds, (O.R. Book 692, Page 212, and O.R. Book 726, Page 1967). They have been paying property taxes since 2010 for Blocks 12 and 21, and Blocks 4, 13 and 20 since 2011. On October 19, 2010, Council reaffirmed the Site Plan and Development Agreement, effective date of January 20, 2009, with a term of 10 years. This means they have until January 20, 2019, to start the development. Mr. Steve Dobbs, Project Engineer, was present and informed the Council that InSite Development Group is in the process of acquiring funding to proceed with the development of Southern Trace. The issue with the alleys not being closed due to the reversionary clause was noted by the title company. The developer now needs clarification of ownership.

In the past, situations of this nature were handled by extending the reversion clause time period. The difference this time is this is the first one where an owner expended funds to the Trust for deeds, and has been paying taxes for several years. Mayor Kirk stated his concern being, this is still an undeveloped project and he would be in favor of extending the reversion rights, rather than deleting it since it is still an uncertain situation, Council Members Watford and Williams echoed his concerns, Council Member Maxwell recommended a copy of the Site Plan be provided to the Council, which may answer some of their concerns. Clerk Gamiotea explained, in the absence of Attorney Cook, that since the owners have the deeds for the alleys, by paying fair market value of the property to the Hamrick Trust, the City may have to purchase the alleys in order to act on the reversion clause. All the issues expressed will be presented to Attorney Cook for him to respond at the Final Hearing. The Council can decide at that time to delete the clause or amend it for an extension.

Owners obtained Quit Claim Deeds upon purchasing the alleyways from the Hamrick Trust, and have been paying the taxes on them since 2010 for Blocks 12 and 2 1, and 2011 for the Blocks 4, 13, and 20. - On May 13, 2011, Mr. Irving Haase contacted our office to find the best solution in resolving the reversionary clause as he was unable to acquire financial lending due to a clouded title on the alleys. Mr. Haase went on to say that when he and Mr. Dobbs appeared before the City Council on October 19, 2010, the Council reaffirmed the Site Plan for Southern Trace, and the Developers'Agreement effective date of January 20, 2009, term being for 10 years, he was under the impression that this would include the alleys since they are part of the development site plan. I explained the alley closings were a separate document, they were not mentioned at the meeting, and suggested he contact Attorney Cook to resolve theissue. A few weeks ago, Mr. Steve Dobbs contacted my office on behalf of I nSite Development, LLC, explaining they had not resolved the title issue with the alleys and asked the procedures to amend Ordinance #971 to delete the reversionary rights section. Upon review of the issue with Attorney Cook, proposed Ordinance #1106 was drafted for City Council consideration. What has changed since 2007: Property Owners for Lots 4-8 and part of 9 in Block 21.

B. 2. a) Motion to approve the first reading of proposed Ordinance No. 971, Council Member C. Williams moved to approve the first reading of proposed Ordinance No. 971; seconded by Council I Member L. Williams. b) Discussion. Alloy Closing Application No. 85 was submitted by Steve Dobbs, on behalf of property owner InSite Development LLC. The purpose of the ordinance is to close the East to West and the North to South alleyways of Block 12 and Block 21, Okeechobee and the East to West alleys of Block 4, Block 13 and Block 20, Okeechobee. Easements are being requested by Florida Power & Light, Embarq and OUA. The property is proposed to be used for a mufti -family development. Mayor Kirk, Council Member$ C. Williams, L. Williams and Markham noted for the record that they met with the Engineer (Steve Dobbs) on the project prior to the meeting and reviewed the plans with him to have a better understanding of the project. Council Member Watford noted that he was only able to speak with Mr. Dobbs briefly by telephone. Council MemberMarkham noted the amount otdensity thatwill be increased concerned him, specificallythe density per block once the alleyways are closed and the area is replafted. Basically, an additional 2.64 acres will be added for the alleys alone. Replafting will allow even more. A Future Land Use Map Amendment and Rezoning must still be processed as well. The development will have to meet the minimum lot standard, and the gross density, pervious and impervious standards. The point is still valid by Council Member Markham, since in essence it increases the density per block. A Planned Unit Development could be used *as a not cluster which is greater density than the existing lot sizes, as opposed to the project only consisting of one block. This development is in the area of the City's North drainage ditch. Drainage is a burden as it is, but the additional density could put more burden on the drainage situation. The discussion then focused on how the water flows from one block to another in order to accept run off since Block 22 is not being proposed for any type of on site retention. Mayor Kirk noted that with the lake the development has to construct, it appears the City might have better drainage than with just the alleyways staying there. Council Member Markham responded that yes you have more, but you will burden the area more with the additional density. You have to hold more water in retention due to the number of units per acre. Council Member Watford commented that the density is a good point, this is one of the largest projects, I believe, we have had to take action on. We may need to look at what we have done for other developments. We have helped them by closing the alleyways, so the question I need to resolve is, is this any different from any other development that consisted of one or two blocks? 702 JANuARY 16, 2007 - REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 8 OF 9 IX. NEW BUSINESii CONTINUED. B. 2. b) Discussion continued. Mayor KIrkand Council Member Watford suggested that the first reading be apRroved, and that each membe Will have amRle time to research the density issues.

A potential apartment complex began the development process back in 2006 for Blocks 4111, 12,13, 21 and 22, City of Okeechobee Subdivision, for 217 multi-farrilly units. The property is located West of North Parrott Avenue, between Nodhwest 5P and 711 Avenues and Northwest 111 and 131 Streets, and is approximately 25,11 acres, The company that owns the property is InSlte, I-I.C. During the process of the rezoning, land use map changes, closing of alleyways and Site Plan approval, various investors of the development have changed. One owner, Mr. Irving Haase has remained throughout the process. Mr. Haase is also who signed the final Developer's Agreement, The project became victim of the economic downturn and was not developed. Mr. Haase now has new potential investors, and would like to sell InSfte LLC and the proposed development as already approved to the new owners, These now developers can not afford to start the entire approval process back to the beginning, as the project would not be worth the Investment, They are prepared to construct the project as approved by the Technical Review Committee on September 26, 2007. The problem is that a Site Plan is only good for two years, according to Code Book Section 70-348(2), therefore the Site Plan expired September 26,2009. However, the Developers Agreement was not approved until January 20,2009, with the Site Plan as an attachment. Mr. Steve Dobbs, Project Engineer, is requesting that since the development could not move forward with a building permit until the Developers Agreement was approved, the Site Plan's effective date should not be until January 20, 2009 and the agreement is good for 10 years. 5OG OCTOBER 19,2010- REGULAR MEETING- PAGE 6 OF 7 11 AGENDA IN COUNCILACTION -DISCUSSION -VOTE 11 DL NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED.

Consider City Council meeting schedule - City Clerk (Exhibit 7). Attorney Cook advised that another issue Is that the Developers Agreement does not address transfer of ownership. Should Mr. Haase sell the property to the new investors the Developers Agreement is null and void. The request being made is for the City Council to reaffirm the Southern Trace Development Site Plan as approved by Technical Review Committee on September 26, 2007, and that as long as the property remains in ownership of InSite, LLC, the individual owners can change without having to approve a new Developers Agreement. City Staff had no objections to the requests, Mr. Dobbs also noted for the record that he was one of the new potential investors for this project. Council MemberWatford moved to reaffirm the Site Plan for Southern Trace as submitted and approved by Technical Review Committee on September 26, 2007; and the Developers Agreement as approved on January 20, 2009; seconded by Council Member OConnor. Council Member O'Connor stressed to Mr. Haase and Mr. Dobbs who stated their understanding, that this approval is based on no changes to the Site Plan whatsoever. Attorney Cook concluded that so long as the property remained in the name of InSite, LLC, the legality of the Developers Agreement should not be an issue. Therefore, further action on that matter is not necessary. VOTE KIRK - YEA MARKHAM - YEA O'CONINOR-YEA WATFORI)-YEA WLUAMS - YEA MOTION CARRIED.

The closing of the avenues between the parks is not a problem, and something we routinely approve. I am concerned however, about closing South Park St. The impact to the businesses located in the area notwithstanding; if we approve this closure I am confident that we will see this request in future Applications from other organizations. If Main Streets reason for requesting closure of South Park St. is due to a safety concern, the PD will provide an Officer in a marked patrol car to assist.

I would recommend that the City of Okeechobee be held harmless in the event of any injuries to the public. 2) Any electrical supplied to the snow slide must be connected to a GFI circuit The snoxy slide area will have dampness due to the melting snow. The circuit used to power the slide area should be verified that it is a GFI circuit. I have reviewed the certificate of insurance and the City is a certificate holder.

With over 25 years of experience in the gift industry, we immediately saw the potential for this amazing snow, the first "new" artificial snow in the U.S. market since shredded Styrofoam. We are the experts in using artificial snow for every possible use and are always available to help you decide on what you need and the most economical use of our fake snow. We also sell a simple snowfall machine which uses a different type of snow and adds another dimension to many types of events. We will be glad to help you choose the best type of snow for your intended use. Our offices and main warehouse are in Silicon Valley in Northern California, but we ship some items from our East Coast warehouses. We are currently selling SnoWonder Instant Fake Snow to professional photographers, filmmakers, gift stores, florists, designers, event planners, hotels, amusement parks, and ski resorts both in the US and worldwide. We also sell direct to consumers for every type of home use. If you are interested in using, selling, or distributing SnoWonder, contact our manager, Ricliard Baver . SnoWonder: Artificial Instant Fake Snow Powder that's enk1roarnent-aliv 61-iendh, for holiday decorations, window displays, party decorations, photography, hobbies and crafts for fun, entertainment and education. (D 2005/2013 Sno-Wonder.com FAQ'S 1. How much snow does it make? SnoWonder absorbs 50 to 100 times its volume in water, so a small amount of powder makes a LOT of snow. Each package is sold according to the amount of snow it makes, One tablespoon of powder makes about a quart of snow. The actual amount of snow it makes will vary with the mineral content of the water and the humidity and temperature of the room. 2. How long does it last? Except for slow surface evaporation, SnoWonder will last for days or weeks. Depending on the humidity, the surface will need to be refreshed by misting it with water from a spray bottle or by adding a little "wef' snow on top. Often just fluffing it up with fingers will mix the wetter snow with the drier surface. Where the snow is very thin it will need to be refreshed more often, but in thicker apptications, or where the snow is better contained, it will sometimes retain its wet look for weeks. 3. What is it? Is it safe and environmentally friendly? SnoWonder is a patented, safe and non -toxic polymer developed specifically to imitate most of the properties of snow. It can be used around children and pets, though mixing should always be supervised by an adult. No harm will come if eaten but, of course, it is not real snow and should not be eaten. SnoWonder is biodegradable and environmentally friendly but large amounts should be picked up after use and either mixed into garden soil (where it will help hold moisture while it breaks down) or disposed of. In Japan commercial quantities from the snowboard parks have been reused in agriculture. 4. Will it blow around or melt? No, a mixed batch of SnoWonder is 99% water and it will not blow around like Styrofoam or paper snow. It will not melt and the polymer will resist releasing the water, except for slow surface evaporation. 5. Does it need to be on a special surface? No, SnoWonder can be used on almost any surface except untreated wood. Glass, plastic, tile, mirror, ceramic are all ideal surfaces. The water will not affect most fabric and SnoWonder will not stain, but normal care should be taken on delicate or expensive surfaces. 6. How do you clean it up? SnoWonder is very easy to clean up. It can be picked up with any type of vacuum cleaner, swept or brushed off any surface, and washed off small items in the sink. 7. Does it irritate the skin? No, there are no chemical agents or irritants in SnoWonder. It is easy to brush or wipe it from your hands. 8. Can it be used outdoors? SnoWonder is intended for indoor use but can be used outdoors if it does not get too much sun. Of course, rain,Mll oversaturate it. In a covered outdoor location it does great as it loves the humidity in the air. 9. Can it be put on trees and plants? Yes, it looks great on evergreens, bonsai and many other plants. It may dry out a little faster in these situations. Avoid contact with soil because, like real snow, it will discolor. The coolness and moisture of SnoWonder is beneficial to most plants. Some fems and sensitive leaves may discolor from contact, so always test a small area first. 10. Why does it feel cold? Because it is 99% water. 11. Can it be reused? We reuse our snow several times by letting it dry out on a flat surface and adding water when we want it to reconstitute. Dust from the air and minerals in the water eventually prevent reuse�' 12. Who invented Sno Wonder? SnoWonder was originally developed in Japan more than 10 years ago, for use in indoor Snowboard parks. It is still used for that purpose, and at 27 degrees it is as fast as real snow for sports purposes.

The low bid for this truck was $32,007 from Hub City Ford in Crestview FL, however the quote from Gilbert Ford meets the criteria for the City's local vendor preference. Bid Tabulation Pricing for the two vehicles was compiled using prices from the 2014 Sheriff's bid and state pricing as well as quotes from local dealers.
