Discuss the Victim Assistance Program - Councilmember Mayor Kirk turned the floor over to Councilmember O'Connor who presented for O'Connor (Exhibit 7). the Council's discussion and approval, a Victim Assistance Program for property owners who are victimized by illegal dumping in the City. Through meetings attended by Councilmember O'Connor, Police Chief Mobley Administrator Drago, County Judge Miller, Pat Yancy of L.P. Sanitation, a representative of the C.O.R.E. Program and a representative of the Department of Corrections, the following was created as the "policies and procedures" for the Victim Assistance Program: 1. If a property owner has experienced or suspects illegal dumping on their properly, they would call the City Police to investigate. 2. If the City Police determines that illegal dumping has occurred, they will forward a copy of the Police report to the General Services Department with a recommendation that the property receive consideration to utilize the Victim Assistance Program. If the Police determine that there was no illegal dumping, the property owner will be notified and the responsibility for clean-up will be that of the property owner. Considering the severity of the contents dumped, the Police may have to notify the other State or Federal agencies, and the Victim Assistance Program may not be able to be used. 3. The General Services Department will schedule C.O.RE., and/or DOC personnel (when and if available) to perform a general clean-up of the recommended property by the Police Department. The General Services Department will also schedule City and/or L.P. Sanitation equipment to be used for the clean-up. X X X X M 350 G. NEW BUSINESS 5.

Once the property is cleaned -up under the Victims Assistance Program, the General Services Department will notifv the Police Department The Police Department will then issue a written set of crime prevention design recommendations to the property owner. The purpose of recommenda- tions is to minimize or eliminate future dumping. 5. If the property owner follows the recommendation of the Police Department and illegal dumping still occurs; then the property owner can ask for the Victim Assistance Program again by following the procedure above. If the property owner does not follow the crime prevention design recommenda- tions of the Police Department, then the Victim Assistance Program cannot be utilized again. 6. If there is any costs associated with the clean-up (such as disposal), the property owner will be responsible for those costs, and pay them in full prior to the clean-up. 7. Because of the uncertainty with the number and duration of Community Service Workers (C.O.R.E. and/or DOC), the Citv will not reschedule the clean-up or clean-up the property due to the property owner objecting for any reason. Furthermore, the property owner will be prohibited from using the Victim Assistance Program for that particular piece of propem, and will be responsible for its clean- up.

Thomas, CMC City Clerk CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE Subdivision Regulations and Standards for Design, Construction and Maintenance of City Streets SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS 3.00.00 GENERAL PROVISIONS 3.00.01 Purpose and Intent Land subdivision is the first step in community development. Once land has been subdivided into street, lots and blocks and publicly recorded, the correction of defects is costly and difficult. Subdivided land sooner or later becomes a public responsibility, in that roads, drainage and utilities must be maintained and various customary city services must be provided. The welfare of the entire city is directly affected by land subdivision. It is to the interest of all taxpayers and citizens, the developer, and future residents that subdivisions be conceived, designed, and developed in accordance with sound practice and appropriate standards. The intent and purpose of this volume is to aid in the harmonious development of the City; to secure a coordinated layout and adequate provision for traffic; to secure adequate provision for light, air, recreation, transportation, potable water, flood prevention, drainage, wastewater, other sanitary facilities, and other city services; and to that end to prevent and prohibit the subdivision of land in the city that will not be accomplished in accordance with these regulations. In addition to the design requirements for construction of such required improvements as roads and drainage, as set out herein, compliance with the intent of these regulations require that good design be practiced in subdivision planning, valuable and scenic natural features conserved, and adequate open space be made available for public use. Size, shape and orientation of lots and blocks should be carefully considered with relation to future use of the various lots to be created. It is intended that these regulations shall be liberally constructed to accomplish their stated purposes. 3.00.02 Jurisdiction The regulations herein set out shall apply to all lands presently within the incorporated limits of the City of Okeechobee, Florida, and to any lands which may in the future be annexed to and be made a part of the City of Okeechobee.

This step does not require formal application, fee, or filing of plat with the City Council. The specified plans and data shall be filed with the City Administrator who will in turn refer the material to appropriate city departments for review, comment, criticism and suggestion. The City Administrator shall compile such comments, criticisms and suggestions and submit them with the preapplication plans and data to the City Council. 3.03.02 Within thirty (30) days after receipt by the City of the preapplication material, the City Council shall inform the developer that the plans and data as submitted or as modified do or do not meet the objectives of these regulations. When the City finds the plans and data do not meet the objectives of these regulations, it shall express in writing its reasons therefore. 3.04.00 PROCEDURE OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAT AND APPROVAL OF CONSTRUCTION PLANS FOR REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS 3.04.01 On reaching conclusions under preapplication procedure, as outlined in Section 3.03.00 above, regarding his general purposes and objectives, the developer will prepare a preliminary plat, together with improvement and construction plans and other supplementary material as specified in Section 3.08.02. 3.04.02 Four (4) copies of the preliminary plat, improvement and construction plans, and supplementary material specified shall be submitted to the City Council through the City Administrator with written application for conditional approval at least fourteen (14) days prior to the meeting at which it is to be considered. 3.04.03 The City Administrator shall be the agent for reporting in writing to the City Council that recommendations, findings, or reports of the appropriate city departments to which he refers the materials specified in subsection (2) above, together with an analysis of compliance or non-compliance with regulations applicable to the preliminary plat and required supplementary materials. The City shall check to determine whether any taxes remain unpaid on the land in question. -5- 3.04.04 At a public meeting, the City Council will receive reports on and review the preliminary plat and required improvement and construction plans and supplementary materials to determine compliance with applicable regulations. The developer, adjoining owners and other persons interested in or affected by the proposed subdivision shall have a right to be heard in person, by letter, or by agent or attorney before action is taken by the City Council. 3.04.05 The City Council may conditionally accept the preliminary plat and approve the required construction and improvement plans and supplementary materials as presented, or with minor modifications, if found to be in compliance with these regulations, or may refuse to accept the preliminary plat and required construction and improvements plans supplementary materials when not found to be in compliance with, or readily capable of being revised to comply with, these regulations. If the Council refuses to accept the preliminary plat and required construction and improvement plans and supplementary materials, the Council shall state in writing the particular basis for the refusal and a copy thereof shall be furnished the developer. 3.04.06 At this stage, the City Council, with the aid of the City Administrator and appropriate city departments shall, if conditional acceptance of the preliminary plat and required construction and improvement plans and supplementary materials be given, work out an agreement or agreements with the developer to include, but not to be limited to, provisions for carrying out the required construction and improvements to completion and the developing of the subdivision stages, if the proposed subdivision be a large one and the Council shall find that development in stages is consistent with the intent and purposes of these regulations. 3.04.07 The action of the City Council shall be noted on two copies of the preliminary plat, references, and attached to any conditions made. One copy shall be returned to the developer and the other retained in the office of the City Administrator. 3.04.08 Conditional acceptance of the preliminary plat and approval of construction plans for required improvements and required supplementary materials shall not constitute acceptance of the final plat. Rather, it shall be deemed an expression of acceptance of the layout submitted on the preliminary plat as a guide to the preparation of the final plat and approval of construction plans for required improvements and required supplementary materials. 3.05.00 PROCEDURE FOR APPROVAL OF FINAL PLAT 3.05.01 The final plat shall conform substantially to the preliminary plat as approved, and, if desired by the developer and approved by the City Council, it may constitute only that portion of the approved preliminary plat which he proposed to record and develop at the time; provided however, that such portion conforms to all requirements of these regulations. -6- 3.05.02 The final plat and required supplementary material shall be submitted for approval by the City Council through the City Administrator and for recording upon fulfillment of the requirements of these regulations and any conditions imposed at the time of conditional approval of the preliminary plat.

The arrangement, character, extent, width, grade, design, construction, maintenance and location of all streets shall conform to the Future Traffic Circulation Map of the City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan, The Manual for Design, Construction and Maintenance for City Streets (hereinafter referred to as the Public Works Manual) contained in Appendix A. New streets shall be considered in their relation to existing and planned streets, topographical conditions, to public convenience and safety, and in their appropriate relation to the proposed uses of the land to be served by such street. -7- The Public Works Manual (Appendix A) is to be administered by the Department of Public Works, and may from time -to -time be amended or changed by the Director with the approval of the City Administrator. Any variations from the standards contained within the Public Works Manual shall be reviewed in advance by the Director and approved by the City Administrator. B. Where such is not shown on the Future Traffic Circulation Map, the arrangement of streets in a subdivision shall either; 1) Provide for the continuation or appropriate projection of existing principal streets in surrounding areas; or 2) Conform to a plan for the neighborhood approved or adopted by the City Council to meet a particular situation where topographical or other conditions made continuance or conformance to existing streets impracticable. C. Local streets shall be so laid out that their use by through traffic will be discouraged. D. Where a subdivision abuts on or contains an existing or proposed arterial street, the Council may require marginal access streets, reverse frontage with a decorative block wall contained in a nonaccess reservation along the rear property line, deep lots with rear service alleys, or such other treatment as may be necessary for adequate protection of residential properties and to afford separation of through and local traffic. Where a decorative block wall is approved, such wall shall be designed and constructed to be a minimum of five (5) feet in height with stucco surface painted and be in conformance with the landscape requirements of the Unified Land Development Code. E. Where a subdivision borders on or contains a railroad right-of-way or limited access highway right-of-way, the City Council may require a marginal access street approximately parallel to and on each side of such right-of-way, at a distance suitable for the appropriate use of the intervening land, as for park purposes in residential districts, or for commercial or industrial purposes in appropriate districts. Distances involving rights -of -way shall also be determined with due regard for the requirements of approach grades and future grade separations. F. Reserve strips controlling access to streets shall be prohibited except where their control is definitely placed in the City under conditions approved by the City Council. G. Street jogs with center line offsets of less than one hundred and fifty (150) feet shall be avoided, except where topographic situations make this provision impractical. H. A tangent at least two hundred and fifty (250) feet long shall be introduced between curves on arterial and collector streets. I. When connecting street lines deflect from each other at any one point by more than ten (10) degrees, they shall be connected by a curve with a radius adequate to insure a sight distance of not less than one hundred and fifty (150) feet for local streets, three hundred feet for collector streets, and five hundred (500) feet for arterial streets. K. Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles and no street shall intersect any other street at less than a seventy-five (75) degree angle. L. Property lines at street intersections shall be rounded with a radius of ten (10) feet, or of a greater radius where the City Council may deem it necessary. The City Council may permit comparable cutoffs or chords in place of rounded corners. M. There shall be no private streets or easements for street use platted in any subdivision without the specific approval of the City Council. Where the City Council approves private streets, the Council shall insure that adequate, provision is made for the initial installation and future maintenance of such streets, to the end that such streets shall not become a future charge upon the City. Private streets shall be designed and constructed to the specifications of the Public Works Manual. N. Street right-of-way width shall be as provided in Section 3.01.00 above. O. Sight distances shall be as provided in the Public Works Manual. The plat should indicate setback requirements on any street where they would be applicable. Additional right-of-way may be required to promote public safety and convenience, or to insure adequate access, circulation, and parking in high density residential areas, commercial areas, business areas, or industrial areas. Where a subdivision abuts on or contains an existing street of inadequate right-of- way width, additional right-of-way in conformity with the above standards shall be required for new subdivisions. P. Half or partial streets shall be prohibited. Wherever a half street is adjacent to a tract to be subdivided, the other half of the street shall be platted within such tract. Q. Dead-end streets, designed to be so permanently, shall be prohibited except when designed as cul-de-sacs. Such streets shall be as provided in the Public Works Manual without special permission of the City Council, where due to unusual circumstances involving larger designs or topographical conditions a greater length may be deemed necessary R. Street names and lots numbers shall conform to the street naming and lot numbering plan of the City. -9- • • S. Street grades shall be determined in relation to the drainage installations for the subdivision; wherever feasible, street grades shall not exceed five percent (5%) or less than one-half percent (0.50%) unless otherwise approved by the City. 3.06.02 Alleys A. Alleys shall be provided in commercial and industrial districts, except that the City Council may waive this requirements where other definite and assured provision is made for service access, such as off-street loading, unloading, and parking consistent with and adequate for the uses proposed. Alleys may be allowed in residential districts. B. The width of an alley shall not be less than twenty (20) feet. C. Alley intersections and sharp changes in alignment shall be avoided, but where necessary, corners shall be cut off sufficiently to permit safe vehicular movements. D. Dead-end alleys shall be prohibited. 3.06.03 Easements A. Normally, utility easements across lots or centered on rear or side lot lines will be permitted. Where, due to topography or other circumstances beyond the control of the developer, such easements are deemed by the City Council to be necessary to the reasonable development of the property, such easements shall be at least twenty (20) feet wide. B. Where a subdivision is traversed by a water course, drainage way, channel, or stream, there shall be provided a storm water easement or drainage right-of-way conforming substantially with the lines of such water course plus fifteen (15) on both sides. Further width or construction, or both, as necessary for the purpose of storm drainage facilities shall be required. Parallel street or parkways may be required in connection therewith where necessary for service maintenance and other measures for safety as may be required. C. Other easements may be required for drainage purposes of such size and location as may be determined by the City. D. Where necessary to safety and convenience, pedestrian and service easements shall be provided. Such pedestrian and service easements may include, or be included in, easements required in (A), (B), and (C) above. -10- • 3.06.04 Blocks A. The lengths, widths, and shapes of blocks shall be determined with due regard to: 1) Provision of adequate building sites suitable to the special needs of the type of use contemplated. 2) Applicable, requirements as to lot sizes and dimensions. 3) Needs for convenient access, circulation, control, and safety of street and pedestrian traffic and fire protection. 4) Limitations and opportunities of topography, with special emphasis on drainage of the proposed subdivision and the possible adverse effects of that drainage on properties nearly or adjoining the subdivision. B. Block lengths should not exceed two thousand, two hundred (2,200) feet, or be less than four hundred (400) feet in residential areas, except where special topographical conditions exist. C. Pedestrian crosswalks and bicycle ways, each not less than -ten (10) feet wide, may be required where deemed essential to provide circulation, or access to schools, playgrounds, shopping centers, transportation, and other community facilities. 3.06.05 Lots A. The lot size, width, depth, shape and orientation, and the minimum building setback lines shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision and for the type of development and use contemplated. Lot arrangement and design shall be such that all lots will provide satisfactory and desirable building sites in conformance with the development design improvement standards of this Code. B. Depth and width of all parcels shall be adequate to provide for the off-street service and parking facilities required by the type of use and development contemplated and the standards of design provided by this Code. C. Corner lots for residential use shall have not less than twenty five percent (25%) extra width, greater than the average of corresponding interior lots of the same block, to permit appropriate building setbacks from and orientation to both streets. D. The subdividing of the land shall be such as to provide by means of a public street, each lot with satisfactory and permanent access to an existing public street, provided that the City Council may approve private streets when constructed to the specifications of the Public Works Manual and when adequate provision for initial installation and future private maintenance is made for such streets. -11- E. Double frontage and reverse frontage lots should be avoided except where essential to provide separation of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation. A decorative block wall as required by the landscaping provisions of the Unified Land Development Code shall be provided as specified in D above. F. Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles or radial to street lines, and entrance of automobiles from the lot to the street shall be approximately at right angles or radial to street lines. 3.06.06 Public Sites and Open Spaces A. Where a proposed park, playground, school, or other public use is located in whole or in part in a subdivision, the City Council may require the reservation of such area within the subdivision in those cases in which the City Council deems such requirements to be reasonable and in the public interest. The City may, in such cases, seek the voluntary dedication by the developer of such areas. 3.07.00 REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS 3.07.01 Monuments A. Permanent reference markers shall be placed at each corner or change of direction on the boundary lines of the lands being subdivided. All such permanent reference markers shall be located and placed in conformity with Chapter 177.091(7), Florida Statutes, and the markers shall meet the standards specified in Chapter 177.031(15) Florida Statutes. B. Permanent control points shall be set at such locations in the subdivisions as specified by Chapter 177.091(8), Florida Statutes, and by the City.

The location of all monuments under (A), (B) and (C) above shall be indicated on the final plat. E. All original corner markers shall be protected throughout the development. Should such, or any, monuments, iron pipes, or iron pins serving as monuments, fall within pavements, driveways or sidewalks they shall be secured to proposed grades by eight (8) inch concrete pipes and a cast-iron cap for access to the original monument. All monuments must be in place before the developer is released from bond, if bond has -12- • been posted. If no bond is posted, monuments must be in place prior to the approval of the final plat. Any and all land monuments subject to being disturbed or destroyed in the prosecution of construction shall be accurately witnessed before construction and replaced at the expense of the developer upon the completion of construction. 3.07.02 Storm Drainage A. A drainage system shall be designed showing the ultimate disposition of the design storm. All stormwater conveyance systems shall have adequate capacity to carry the runoff resulting from rainfall intensity which may be expected for a ten (10) year storm period. Stormwater treatment and disposal facilities shall be designed for a 25-year storm event of 24-hour duration. Such facilities shall meet the design and performance standards established in Section 17-25.025 F.A.C. The first inch of stormwater runoff shall be treated on -site, pursuant to Section 17-3.051, F.A.C. Stormwater discharge facilities shall be designed such that the receiving water body shall not be degraded below minimum conditions necessary to assure the suitability of water for the designated use of its classification as established in Chapter 17-3, F.A.C. These standards shall apply to all development and redevelopment. Where there is substantial diversion of water, such diversion shall be accomplished so as to prevent erosion. B. All drainage facilities shall be designed for a positive outfall to existing storm wastewater systems, lakes, canals, rivers, streams, or previously constructed city, county or state road ditches. All water retention areas shall be fenced and shall be screened by appropriate trees or shrubbery. C. If the added runoff from the developed area will, in the judgement of the city, overtax or overload the existing public stormwater system or roadway, then the developer shall include in his plans sufficient work to enlarge the present facilities to care for the added drainage imposed on the system.

Alignment of Edges: All asphaltic concrete mixtures (including leveling courses), other than adjacent to curb and gutter or other true edges, shall be laid by the string line method, to assure obtaining an accurate, uniform alignment of the pavement edge. b. Temperature of Spreading: The temperature of the mixture at the time of spreading shall be within 250 F of the temperature set by the Engineer of Record, which temperature shall be between 270° F and 350' F, unless otherwise directed. C. Rain and Surface Conditions: Any mixture caught in transit by sudden rain may be laid only at the Contractor's risk. Should such mixture prove unsatisfactory, it shall be removed and replaced with satisfactory mixture at the Contractor's expense. In no case shall the mixture be laid while rain is falling or when there is water on the surface to be covered. d. Number of Crews Required: For each paving machine being operated, the Contractor will be required to use a separate crew, each crew operating as a full unit. e. Checking Depth of Layer: The depth of each layer shall be checked at frequent intervals, not to exceed 25 feet. Any deviation from the required thickness, in excess of the allowable tolerance, shall be immediately corrected. • • f. Hand spreading: In limited areas where the use of the spreader is impossible or impracticable, the mixture may be spread and finished by hand. g. Straight -edging and Back -patching: straight -edging and back -patching shall be done after initial compaction has been obtained and while the material is still hot. 5.8.2 Requirements Applicable Only to Surface Courses: a. Spreading and Finishing: Upon arrival, the mixture shall be dumped into the approved mechanical spreader and immediately spread and struck -off to the full width required, and to such loose depth for each course that, when the work is completed, the required weight of mixture per square yard, or the specified thickness, will be obtained. An excess amount of mixture shall be carried ahead of the screed at all times. Hand raking shall be done behind the machine as required. b. Thickness of Layers: Where a surface course is to be constructed to a thickness greater than two inches, it shall be constructed in approximately equal layers and no layer shall be more than two inches in thickness when compacted. Each layer shall be thoroughly compacted and shall conform to the requirements of these specifications before an additional layer is placed. C. Laying Width If necessary due to traffic requirements, the mixture shall be laid in strips in such manner as to provide for the passage of traffic. Where the road is closed to traffic, the mixture may be laid to the full width, by machines traveling in echelon. d. Correcting Defects: Before any rolling is started the surface shall be checked, any irregularities adjusted, and all drippings, fat sandy accumulations from the screed, and fat spots from any source shall be removed and replaced with satisfactory material. No skin patching shall be done. When a depression is to be corrected while the mixture is hot, the surface shall be well scarified before the addition of fresh mixture. 26 5.8.3 Requirements Applicable Only to Leveling Courses: a. Patching Depressions: Before any leveling course is spread, all depressions in the existing surface more than one inch deep shall be filled by spot patching with leveling course mixture and then thoroughly compacted. b. Work Adjacent to Bridge Ends: On resurfacing projects where the roadway joins an existing bridge and where necessary to insure that a bump will not be created by the overlay, before any surfacing is placed adjacent to the bridge, a portion of the existing pavement shall be bladed off, in order that a smooth transition between the new surfacing and the bridge end may be effected. C. Spreading Leveling Courses: The leveling shall be placed by the use of a paving machine, in good condition and appropriate for the project to be undertaken. Other types of leveling devices may be used, subject to prior approval by the Engineer of Record, with the concurrence of the Department of Public Works. d. Rate of Application: When the total amount of leveling course material to be applied exceeds 50 pounds per square yard, it shall be applied in separate courses, with the average spread not to exceed 50 lbs. per square yard. When Type S-III Asphaltic Concrete is used for leveling, the average spread for each leveling course shall not be less than 50 pounds per square, nor more than 75 pounds per square yard. Unless otherwise indicated the quantity shown in the plans for leveling represents an average for the entire job. The rate of application of leveling may be increased or decreased, as necessary, at locations designated by the Engineer of Record. Where widening construction is specified in connection with leveling, the Engineer of Record may require that approximately fifty percent of the leveling be placed prior to the widening operation. e. Placing Leveling Over Existing Concrete Pavement: For leveling course to be applied over broken existing concrete pavement (with or without old asphaltic surface), the first course of the leveling shall be placed as soon after the cracking and resealing 27 of the concrete as is practicable, but not later than two days after the cracking operations on any section. The remainder of the surfacing shall follow in the normal sequence of operations. f. Removal of Excess Joint Material: Where leveling is placed over concrete pavement or concrete deck -slab bridges, all excess joint filler at the cracks and joints shall be removed flush with the existing concrete prior to placing the leveling course. 5.9 Compacting Mixture. 5.9.1 Provisions Applicable to All Types: a. Equipment and Sequence: For each paving or leveling train in operation, the Contractor shall furnish a separate set of rollers, with their operators. The rolling shall be done in the following sequence, with the equipment as shown, unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer of Record, with the concurrence of the Department of Public Works. (1) Seal rolling, using tandem steel rollers weighing 5 to 12 tons, and following as close behind the spreaders as is possible without pick-up, undue displacement or blistering of the material. (2) Rolling with self propelled pneumatic -tired rollers, following as close behind the seal rolling as the mix will permit. The roller shall cover every portion of the surface with at least five passes. (3) Final rolling with the 5 to 12 ton tandem steel rollers, to be done after the seal rolling and pneumatic -tired rolling have been completed, but before the pavement temperature has dropped below 175° F. b. Compaction at Crossovers, Intersection, etc: When a separate paving machine is being used to pave the crossovers, the compaction of the crossovers may be done by one 5 to 10 ton tandem steel roller. If crossovers, intersections and acceleration and deceleration lanes are placed with the main run of paving, a traffic roller shall also be used in the compaction of these areas. 5.9.2 Rolling Procedures: The initial rolling shall be longitudinal. When the lane being placed is adjacent to a previously placed lane, the center joint shall be pinched or rolled, prior to the rolling of the rest of the lane. After the rolling or pinching of the center joint, the rolling shall continue across the mat by overlapping each previous roller path by at least one-half the width of the roller wheel. The motion of the roller shall be slow enough to avoid displacement of the mixture, and any displacement shall be corrected at once by the use of rakes, and the addition of fresh mixture if required. Find rolling shall be continued until all roller marks are eliminated. a. Speed of Rolling: Rolling with the self-propelled, pneumatic - tired rollers shall proceed at a speed of 6 to 10 miles per hour, and the area covered by each roller ii shall not be more than 4,000 square yards per hour, except that for Type S Asphaltic Concrete, this maximum rate of coverage shall be 3,000 square yards per hour. b. Number of Pneumatic tired Rollers Required: A sufficient number of selfpropelled pneumatic" -tired rollers shall be used to assure that the rolling of the surface for the required number of passes will not delay any other phase of the laying operation nor result in excessive cooling of the mixture before the rolling is complete. In the event that the rolling falls behind, the laying operation shall be discontinued until the rolling operations are sufficiently caught up. C. Compaction of Areas Inaccessible to Rollers: Areas which are inaccessible to a roller (such as areas adjacent to curbs, headers, gutters, bridges, manholes, etc.,) shall be compacted by the use of hand tamps or other satisfactory means. d. Rolling Patching and Leveling Courses: Self-propelled pneumatic -tired rollers shall be used for the rolling of all patching and leveling courses. 29 • e. Correcting Defects: The rollers shall not be allowed to deposit gasoline, oil or grease onto the pavement, and any areas damaged by such deposits shall be removed and replaced as directed by the Engineer of Record. While rolling is in progress, the surface shall be tested continuously and all discrepancies corrected to comply with the surface requirements. All drippings, fat or lean areas and defective construction of any description shall be removed and replaced. Depressions which develop before the completion of the rolling, shall be remedied by loosening the mixture and adding new mixture to bring the depressions to a truel, surface. Should any depression remain after the final compaction has been obtained, the full depth of the mixture shall be removed and replaced with sufficient new mixture to form al true and even surface. All high spots, high joints and honeycomb shall be corrected as directed by the Engineer of Record. Any mixture remaining unbonded after rolling shall be removed and replaced. Any mixture which becomes loose or broken, mixed or coated with dirt or in any way defective, prior to laying the wearing course, shall be removed and replaced with Ifresh mixture, which shall be immediately compacted to conform with the surrounding area. Areas of defective surface may be repaired by the use of indirect heat. No method of repair involving open -flame heaters shall be used. f. Provisions Applicable to Shoulder Pavement Only: Shoulder pavements wider than three feet shall be compacted by the use of equipment of the type required for other asphaltic concrete pavements. Compaction of asphaltic concrete three feet or less in width, shall be done by they use of tandem steel rollers not exceeding 12 tons in weight. Other compaction in such restricted widths shall be by the use of any type of rubber -tired equipment the Contractor may elect to use,. approved by the Engineer of Record, with the concurrence of the Department of Public Works. 5.9.3 Density Required for Asphaltic Concrete Pavement: After final compaction, the density shall be at least 96% of the laboratory compacted density of the paving mixture for that day's production. 0Z1 5.10 Joints. 5.10.1 Transverse Joints: Placing of the mixture shall be as continuous as possible and the roller shall not pass over the unprotected end of the freshly laid mixture except when the laying operation is to be discontinued long enough to permit the mixture to become chilled. When the laying operation is thus interrupted, a transverse joint shall be constructed by cutting back on the previous run to expose the full depth of the mat. 5.10.2 Longitudinal Joints: Where only a portion of the width of pavement is to be laid and opened to traffic, longitudinal joints shall be formed by rolling the exposed edge of the strip first laid. When the adjacent strip is constructed, the Engineer of Record may require the edge of the mixture in place to be trimmed back to expose an unsealed or granular vertical surface. Where the strip first laid is closed to traffic, the edge shall not be sealed but shall be left vertical and the adjacent strip placed against it without trimming. 5.10.3 General: When fresh mixture is laid against the exposed edges of joints (trimmed or formed as provided above), it shall be placed in close contact with the exposed edge so that an even, well -compacted joint will be produced after rolling. 5.11 Surface Requirements. 5.11.1 Checking with Rolling Straightedge: The final surface course of all pavements will be required to be checked by the rolling straightedge, in accordance with the following provisions. As soon as the rolling has been completed and the surface has halydened sufficiently to be walked on, the entire surface shall be checked With a rolling straightedge, set to indicate any surface irregularities in excess of 3/16 inch. The rolling straightedge shall have an effective length of 15 feet and its design shall meet the approval of the Engineer of ,Record. The rolling straightedge and labor for its operation shall be supplied by the Contractor. The straightedge shall be applied in lines parallel to the centerline, at least twice for each pass of the spreader. Straight -edging shall be extended across all joints. Any irregularities in excess of 3/16 inch shall be corrected by removing and replacing the defective sections or by 31 overlaying with surface material, as directed by the Engineer of Record. Straight -edging of paved shoulders will not be required unless so directed by the Engineer of Record. 5.11.2 Manual Straightedge: A 15-foot manual straightedge shall be furnished by the Contractor and shall be available at all times on the work. The Contractor shall designate an employee whose duty it is to handle the straightedge in checking the compacted surfaces under the direction of the Engineer of Record, or if requested by a representative of the Department of Public Works. 5.11.3 Permissible Variations from True Surface: The finished surface shall not vary more than 3/16 inch from the straightedge applied parallel to the centerline of the pavement. Any surface irregularities exceeding such limits shall be corrected in accordance with the requirements. 5.11.4 Texture of Finished Surface: The finished surface shall be of uniform texture and compaction. The surface shall have no pulled, torn or loosened portions, and shall be free of sand streaks, sand spots or ripples. These requirements shall also apply to any areas where it is necessary to apply hand work. 5.11.5 Any areas in which the surface does riot meet the above requirements for texture, sand streaks, ripples, pulled or loosened portions, or for uniformity of compaction; or does not meet the straight -edging requirements, shall be corrected at the Contractor's expense. Such corrections may be made either by replacing the surface course (to full depth) or by overlaying with the type of asphaltic concrete mixture being placed. Within the longitudinal limits where such defective areas occur, such corrections shall be made for the full width of the roadway and for longitudinal distances in both directions beyond such defective areas in accordance with the following: (a) If the correction is made by replacing of the full thickness, it shall extend to at least 50 feet each side of the defective area. (b) If the Contractor elects to effect ''Ithe correction by overlaying, the overlay shall consist of at least 100 pounds of mixture per square yard, at the defective section and shall taper uniformly down from the full thickness of such weight, to zero thickness, 32 feathered, at the end of a minimum length of 50 feet each side of the defective area. (c) The transverse thickness at any section shall be such as to provide the design cross section. 5.12 Protection of Finished surface: Sections of newly compacted asphaltic concrete which are to be covered by additional courses shall be kept clean until the successive course is laid. Upon completion of the finished pavement, no dumping of any material directly on the pavement will be permitted. When shoulders are constructed after completion of the final surface, blade graders operating adjacent to the pavement during shoulder construction shall have a two inch by eight inch (or larger) board (or other attachment providing essentially the same results) attached to their blades in such manner that 'it extends below the blade edge, in order to protect the pavement surface from damage by the grader blade. Vehicular traffic shall not be permitted on any pavement which has not set sufficiently to prevent rutting or other distortion. 5.13 Other Requirements: All requirements outlined above may be supplemented by, substituted for or modified by the Florida Department of Transportation "Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction," latest edition, at the discretion of the Engineer of Record, with the concurrence of the City Administrator, acting through the Department of Public Works. 33 n U L� CHAPTER 6 ROADS AND STREETS - TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS 1.

There will be no relaxation of safety requirements, but lighter duty construction will be allowed, where public interests will not suffer. W r-1 L-A 1.2.2 In cases where temporary facilities must be constructed to provide or maintain an essential feature around portions of a public right-of-way for public safety or convenience duringconstruction, such temporary facility must be clearly drawn in suficient detail on standard size drafting sheets, and submitted to the Department of Public Works for review and approval prior to implementation. 1.3 Typical sections Sketches of proposed typical sections, indicating design speed, shall be submitted to the Department of Public Works', for approval prior to beginning the preparation of plans, and shall show orl note all existing conditions or facilities that might influence a proper engine ring evaluation of the proposed project. 1.4 Safety Criteria Minimum safety criteria for design of ro 'ds and streets in the City of Okeechobee shall be in accordance with FDC�r requirements. 35 • 1.5 Roadways Adjacent and Parallel to Waterwavg, The following policy is to be implemented Iin the design of all roadway construction involving lakes and canals when it is necessary for such waterways to exist adjacent and parallel to the roadway. For purposes of the policy, a canal is considered to be an open ditch with the side slope adjacent to the roadway 4:1 or steep r and/or with a seasonal water depth in excess of three feet for extended peripds of time (24 hours or more). When the roadway slope and the canal side slope adjacent to the roadway is 6:1 or flatter, the minimum distance to the canal may be measured from the edge of the through travel lane to the "extended period of time" water surface. The berm between the roadway front slope and canal slope is not required for this condition. 1.5.1 Minimum Distance to Canal The distance from the outside edge of the through travel lane to the top of the lake/canal side slope nearest the goad, will be no less than 60 feet for highways with design speeds of 50 miles per hour (MPH) or greater. For highways with design speeds less than 50 MPH, this minimum distance may be reduced to 50 feet f rural highways or 40 feet for urban (curb and gutter) highways. When a new lake/canal or roadway alignment is required, at less than the iultimate cross-section, distances greater than these above should be provided, if possible, to accommodate possible future improvements to roadway (widening, etc.). 1.5.2 Roadways on Fill Sections A flat berm (maximum 10:1 slope) of width no less than 20 feet will be provided between the toe of the roadway front slope and the top of the lake/canal side slope nearest the roadway. This minimum berm width applies to all types of highways, both rjural and urban (curb and gutter) construction, regardless of the distance; from roadway front slope to the top of the lake/canal side slope. 36 • 0 1.5.3 Roadways in Cut Sections or with Adjacent Ditches A minimum of 15 feet will be provided (between the inside edge of the roadside ditch bottom and the top of thle lake/canal side slope nearest the road. 1.5.4 Installation of Protection Installation of guardrail, or other approved protective devices, are recommended throughout all areas w4ere it is impracticable (by the determination of the City Administrator) to meet the above minimum criteria. For canals located on the outside of curves sharper than 2°, greater offset widths or construction of guardrail should be considered. When guardrail is required for canal 'protection, it will normally be placed at or near the edge of the clear recovery area. The distance from the outside edge of the shoulder to the face of guardrail should, in all cases, be greater than 12 feet when guardrail is not constructed at the edge of the shoulder. The roadway front slope back of guardrail may be steepened to 2:1. 1.6 Flexible Pavement Design Flexible pavement design shall be in accordant with the criteria established in the TROT Flexible Pavement Design Manual,, latest edition.

OBJECTIVES The objectives of the City of Okeechobee in subdivision planning are to promote health, safety and welfare in enhancing the quality of life for its residents. This dictates a safe and efficient access and traffic circulation system. The following principles are to be considered in accomplishing these objectives: 1.1. Adequate Vehicular and Pedestrian Access Adequate vehicular and pedestrian access shall be provided for all parcels. Street widths, sidewalk placement, patterrs of streets and number of intersections shall take into consideration both safety and efficiency of access to abutting parcels. Every parcel shall abut an approved private street, an approved access easement, or a street dedicated to, and accepted by the City for maintenance. 1.2. Minimization of Traffic Movements Through LMI Streets Through traffic shall be discouraged through the use of discontinuities in local street patterns by offsetting local street intersections and by channeling or controlling street medians along peripheral major or collector streets. This will reduce the amount and speed of traffic, thereby making local streets more safe and amenable to residents. 1.3. Logic and Consistence in Street Numbering aLid Naming A consistent and logical pattern shall be developed to simplify local street naming and numbering, to assist visitors in locating addresses and facilitate access by emergency vehicles, delivery vehicles, etc. 1.4. Efficient Traffic Circulation and Development, Patterns Driveways, intersection placement and access shall be controlled so that no parcels require direct access to major or collector streets. Provisions shall be provided for continuing existing principal streets from adjoining areas through 55 new subdivisions. Where streets are extended to subdivision boundaries and abut either undeveloped adjoining land, or correct to collector or arterial roads, the location of the subdivision street shall I be coordinated with the City Administrator to facilitate future street development in adjoining areas, for overall efficiency of traffic flow and for safety considerations of future intersections. 1.5. Design for Purpose Intended Local streets shall not be overdesigned or overbuilt, i.e: extra width, higher speed, etc., to a degree which will detract from the residential character and which will encourage higher use and higher traffic speed. The use of curvilinear alignment and discontinuities is encouraged to minimize speeds in excess of 30 MPH and discourage through traffic. 1.6 Minimum of Intersections Intersections shall be kept to the minimum number practicable, particularly between local streets and collector or arterial roads, to reduce accident potential. Consistent with other requirements, "T" intersections are preferable to four way, or cross type intersections. Streets shall be arranged to intersect as closely as possible to right angles. In no case shall streets intersect at an angle of less than 75°. 2. PLANNING AND DESIGN CRITERIA 2.1. Local Streets 2.1.1. Maximum length of a cul-de-sac shall be 1200 feet, unless otherwise approved by the City Administrator. Minimum paved radius shall be 36-feet. 2.1.2. Local streets shall intersect with other local streets to the maximum extent practicable, and in no case with more than one collector or arterial road. 2.1.3. Loop roads, cul-de-sacs and curvilinear streets shall be considered in the planning and design. kpc 2.2. Collector Streets 2.2.1. No direct access shall be provided to a collector street from a residential lot. 2.2.2. Collector/arterial streets shall connect to only one collector or arterial road. 2.2.3. Residential dwellings shall face away from collector/arterial streets ( i.e.: collector/arterial street to side or rear lot line). 2.3. Commercial Sites Commercial sites shall conform to these standards in regard to roadway improvements, rights of way, sidewalks, driveways and all other requirements outlined for residential subdivisions, as appropriate. 57 U CHAPTER 8 INSTALLATIONS FOR INTER -EXCHANGE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICE AND CABLE TV OR OTHER SIGNAL INSTALLATIONS 1.
