COUNCIL ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE
On behalf of the City, Mayor Watford presented Mr. David Allen with an engraved cross pen and a framed certificate
which read, "In recognition of your 5-years of service, hard work, and dedication to the City, its citizens, and
your fellow employees from September 11, 2012 to September 11, 2017." Mr. Allen, who was accompanied by
his wife Cheryl, thanked the Mayor and Council for their support, adding he has never had such a diverse job as he
does by being the Public Works Director, which he is very thankful for.
Mayor Watford proclaimed the month of September, 2017 as "Hunger Action Month." The proclamation was
presented to Ms. Meg Buckley and Ms. Paige Shortsleeve. The document was read into the record as follows:
"Whereas, hunger and poverty remain issues of grave concern in the United States, the State of Florida, the
Treasure Coast, and Okeechobee County; and Whereas, Okeechobee County is committed to taking steps to
raise awareness about the need to combat hunger in every part of our County and to provide additional
resources that citizens of Okeechobee County need, and Whereas, food banks and hunger relief
organizations across the country, including the Treasure Coast Food Bank, will participate in Hunger Action
Day on September 14th and will host numerous events throughout the month of September to shed light on
this important issue and encourage involvement in efforts to end hunger in their local community. Now,
Therefore, 1, Dowling R. Watford, Jr., by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of
Okeechobee, Florida, do hereby proclaim the month of September, 2017 as `HUNGER ACTION MONTH'."
Mayor Watford proclaimed the month of September, 2017 as "National Suicide Awareness Prevention Month" and
presented the proclamation to Ms. Deb Dreher which read: "Whereas, September is National Suicide Prevention
Awareness Month and mental health providers across the nation are reaching out to communities to engage
in open discourse, providing vital information on how to detect the signs of suicide and what to do when they
are apparent; and Whereas, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the
second leading cause of death in Florida for people ages 10 to 34, and the leading cause of violent death in
the U.S. for adults ages 35 to 65; and Whereas, on the Treasure Coast and in Okeechobee, 66 people have
died by suicide so far in 2017, with 541 people dying by suicide in the previous five _years; and Whereas,
these staggering numbers don't adequately represent the families that have been torn apart by suicide; nor
the trauma resulting from the sudden and violent loss of a loved one that will impact children and adults for
years to come; and Whereas, there is hope, however, because suicide is 100 percent preventable, through
education, outreach and treatment. It all begins with a conversation; one human helping another. Now,
Therefore, 1, Dowling R. Watford, Jr., by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of
Okeechobee, Florida, do hereby proclaim September 2017 as `NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION
AWARENESS MONTH'."
Council Member Clark moved to dispense with the reading and approve the Summary of Council Action for the

Mayor Watford provided an update related to events during and following Hurricane Irma's landfall across the State
on Sunday, September 10, 2017. While Okeechobee was spared major devastation, our neighboring communities
were not. Most of Okeechobee's Florida Power and Light and Glades Electric Co-op, Inc., customers lost electricity,
as of today, both utility companies had restored electricity to all but less than 100 customers. The Okeechobee
Utility Authority (OUA) was able to maintain water and wastewater operations. City-wide there was damage to traffic
signals, roadway signage, with trees and landscaping bearing the brunt of the damage. Seven residences suffered
major damage as well as Tanglewood Apartments (a six building duplex/triplex facility) located in the 300-400
blocks of Northwest 9th Street, two homes were destroyed. Thankfully, there was no loss of life.
The normal protocols were activated at the Okeechobee Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The Mayor. Chief's,
Public Works Director, and City Administrator attended and participated in the intiormationai meetings, and
disseminated information to the community or responded with services appropriately. The cooperation and level of
comradery between the City and County Staff was exceptional as it was obvious that their first concern was always
for the safety of the residents.
Mayor Watford and each Council Member offered noteworthy situations they observed where employees went
above and beyond to assist others, regardless of whether they were City or County, no matter how difficult or
demanding it required them to be. Citizens were commended for offering help to their neighbors. Local businesses
remained open longer hours before the storm and took extra measures to re -open quickly afterwards. The local
media (radio station WOKC and the Okeechobee News) was applauded for their efforts in keeping the information
up to date to the citizens.

Vill. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED
A. Hurricane Irma Recovery Status continued.
B. Motion to re -appoint Mr. Herb Smith to the Firefighters' Pension Board of
Trustees, term being October 1, 2017, through September 30, 2021 - City
Clerk (Exhibit 1).
C. Consider a recommendation by City Attorney Cook to proceed with
foreclosure proceedings for Super Stop Petroleum, Inc., located at 510
Northeast Park Street, due to property owner's failure to honor terms of
the Lien Release Agreement with a lien in the amount of $29,500,00,
which was to be released if the new owner brought the property into
compliance; nothing has been done as of this date to bring the property
into compliance with City ordinances - Attorney Cook.
COUNCIL ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE
Okeechobee does not have a local television station and the area has to rely on the stations located in Palm Beach
County. Unfortunately, the majority of these stations did not see the importance of providing news updates from
Okeechobee, except WPBF News Channel 25, which Mayor Watford was grateful they took his calls to conduct
telephone interviews, as well as a telephone interview from CNN news.
It was comforting to have telephone calls from Governor Scott's office and an aide from the White House Office of
Inter -Governmental Affairs. Congressman Rooney and Florida Representative Pigman visited the EOC command
center; their aides have continued to keep in touch and assist in the distribution and clean-up operations. The Army
Corps of Engineers and South Florida Water Management District's updates and assistance were appreciated and
commended. The National Guard was staged at the Okeechobee County Agri -Center; they along with Operations
Director Matt Dorriety were very efficient in providing supplies to residents. All in all, the community came together,
everyone pitched -in going above and beyond what is expected, and then extended that same willingness and
assisted surrounding counties with man -power and resources. It has been a shining moment well worth
documenting. There was no official action required for this item.
Exhibit one consisted of a memorandum from Clerk Gamiotea explaining Mr. Herb Smith, one of the two City
residents appointed by the City Council to the Firefighters' Pension Fund Board of Trustees, term sunsets
September 30, 2017. Her office published multiple notices and has not received any applications to date. Other
Trustees' are Mr. John Koepke (City Council appointed since August 2003), Lieutenant Glen Hodges (elected by the
Fund Members since February 1996), Lieutenant Adam Crum (elected by the Fund Members since December
2012), and the Fifth Trustee, Firefighter Mike Skipper (appointed by the four Trustees since February 2011).
Council Member O'Connor moved to re -appoint Mr. Herb Smith to the Firefighters' Pension Board of Trustees, term
being October 1, 2017, through September 30, 2021; seconded by Council Member Ritter. Mayor Watford
expressed his appreciation to Chief Smith for serving in this capacity.

In May of 2015, Fortex Holdings, LLC's legal counsel contacted Attorney Cook regarding a Code Enforcement Lien,
Case Number 11-069 (recorded in Official Record Book 709 Page 20), on property located at 510 East North Park
Street. On May 12, 2015, the Code Enforcement Board approved the release of the Lien, per Attorney Cook's
recommendation with stipulations to be spelled out in an agreement. The agreement was signed May 22, 2015,
providing that the $29,500.00 Lien would be released so long as the property was brought into compliance within 12
months.

COUNCIL ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE
After failure to comply with the Agreement, a letter was sent to Fortex Holdings, LLC, advising that a
recommendation for foreclosure was being presented to the City Council at the September 19, 2017, meeting. Mr.
Masroor Rab, Manager of Fortex Holdings, LLC, provided documentation today in the form of email
correspondences between himself and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection Petroleum Restoration
Program on soil contamination issues he has been diligently working to get resolved. Attorney Cook requested to
delay the foreclosure proceedings based on the update provided by Mr. Rab. The Mayor and City Council
agreed. However, a status report is to be provided to them in 60 to 90 days.
A revised exhibit two was distributed at the meeting amending Section 2 of the Franchise, extending the expiration
date to September 30, 2022, unless terminated by either party, and clarifying an extension after that date is not an
automatic renewal; amending Section 29 adding a paragraph that the City approved annual commercial and
residential rate schedules on July 18, 2017; and incorporated into the renewal along with future annual rate
resolutions. The revision included the statutorily required public records verbiage for contracts awarded or amended
after July 1, 2016. Attorney Cook confirmed Waste Management failed to send the City their request by April, to
extend the current Franchise Agreement; it expires September 30, 2017.
Council Member Chandler moved to approve Amendment Five to the Waste Management Franchise Agreement (as
presented in revised exhibit two); seconded by Council Member Clark.

Inc., who was in attendance, details the work to be completed is directly related to damage from Hurricane Irma.
The work will be processed by separate records in order to apply for reimbursement from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA).

2nd to West 6th Avenues); and $1,500.00 for the cleaning of medians and FLAGLER PARK areas.

Motion and second by Council Members Clark and Ritter to adopt proposed Ordinance No. 1158.
Mayor Watford opened the floor for public comment. Mr. Irby voiced his concerns over not being able to follow and
account for all ending fund balances from the FY 2015-16 audit to the proposed budget beginning balances. Based
on the audit figures there is approximately $11,000,000.00 in the restricted/unrestricted fund balance. All but
approximately $3,000,000.00 could be accounted for in the FY 2017-18 budget beginning balances. An explanation
was offered stating the audit combines the General and Capital Improvement Funds together; assigned fund
balances are left blank in the proposed budget as allowed. and the current FY 2016-17 budget figures also have to
De included. Due to the complexity of a response and to ensure everyone is provided with the same
information to follow, Mayor Watford instructed the Finance Director to provide a response in writing to the
Council and Mr. Irby.
Mr. Irby then addressed the proposed 2 percent Cost Of Living Allowance (COLA) pay increase to employees for FY
2017-18, referring to recent articles regarding inflation rates and local government employees, on average, are the
best paid before fringe benefits are added. He asked that the Council remember the tax payers are paying for this
and that it is a re -occurring cost, not a one time expense. He commented on proposed Public Facility Improvement
projects cautioning on the acceptance of grants and the sidewalk program, suggesting before any additional
sidewalks are installed that the City maintain and repair the ones in place. Lastly, he asked that striping of roadways
be considered as a more pertinent matter.

Commend City Staff, complain about them sometimes, great work done by PW, Police and Fire Departments. Everyone

winn dixie. Called a friend who was in distressed, ambulance called, was in ICU, thought impressive outside our jurisdiction
and helped a person.

bought her some food himself and pitched in and helped.
Administrator out taking pictures and keeping me updated and was very helpful. County staff was helpful.. Cooperation
between the city and county was even commended at the EOC meetings, they work together. FPL did a great job, the
president of FPL, Eric , 2 conference calls with mayors in this area, I was able to participate. Stephanie Mitrone, Amy

Individuals nd churches that pitched in, bunch of rednecks with trucks can get more done than FEMA. Officers to Sebring to

MDO echo same praise. Waiting for paperwork to workoder with Culpepper and Terperening wit the county, Crawder is the
debris removal company for the county and we can piggy back on and will bring this to the council to approve. Started this

ITEM ADDED TO AGENDA: G. Motion to approve a recommendation for OUA Expansion Priorities — City Administrator
(Exhibit 7).
Watford, asked for this to be added, John Creasman Chair, priorities support for them. Area maps Figure 1 Vacuum
collection system layout, Treasure Island area (Southeast). Figure 2 South VSS Layout Southeast, Figure 3 North VSS
layout, Figure 4 force main option A. we can stay out of this or we can support the project. We normally support the BOCC
and school board, but up to us if we want to add this as a priority.
MDO this was on our legislative list last year. Need a concensus to leave on our list.
Ritter I think we should make a unified front on this, big push north/south everglades restoration project, ever going to get
the sewer in that area best time to take advantage.
O'Connor special cost to those people or spread the cost to all.
Irby TI hooked up within 5 years, put a 20 year $90/100 per year per lot as an assessment, nominal fee to those people.
Mandatory connections discussed. Project has been engineered. New engineering company has to review the project since
one originally is no long in business.
O'Connor don't want my bill to go up for this.
Irby in theory It makes it more cost eftective.
MDO rate sheet depends on what they can get from other govt agencies.
Irby it makes sense to attempt to go after this, septic tanks off the lake will be an improvement.
BOCC going up on Oct 22 on Okeechobee Day.
Watford felled to mention that theres a study by FGCU, 2 year study, 6 months into it.
Concensus of the Council add our support.

Auditors combine capital and general.
When you look at your audit, they have $11 million in the restricted/unrestricted.
IR assigned fund are left blank in the budget.
Clark — so whats the difference? Where are the funds?
Watford need to look at and follow up with, cant answer this tonight, provide to each of us and to Frank the response.
Irby understand govt accounting is different, but should be able to follow it.
Irby memo amount of raises to the employees. Inflation is not at 2%. Article that best paid are local government employees.
Guys remember whose paying for this, tax payers getting taxed to pay this. Health insurance
$725.00 per month. Need to tell County how to do that better.
Personal comment, sidewalk extension project, if you cant take care of what you got quit building more.
Is there a standard for street striping? MDO city has adopted the FDOT guidelines.
Ritter I wish I understood how inflation worked more. Looking at my family budget, groceries, gas increased more than 1 %
in the last few years. How does that coincide with the enational inflaction ratio, is there any direct corolation to that against
our costs to provide a family. My budget has increased.
Clark interest rates, mortage, taxes, insurance, all go into the pot to create the cost of living, its 1.4% for Florida.
Ritter and then you have the intangible factors like the costs from the storm we just got. Worthly of more than the percent.
SFWMD has not given raises in 8 years and the quality people that have left that group since then, we run the risk of losing
quality people.
Clark city employees wont be able to stay in Okeechobee and continue to make more money.
The expenditures for each department are listed below:

C. Proclaim the month of September, 2017 as "Suicide Prevention Awareness Month."
Mayor Watford proclaimed the month of September, 2017 as "Hunger Action Month" by reading the document into the
record as follows: "Whereas, September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and mental health
providers across the nation are reaching out to communities to engage in open discourse, providing vital
information on how to detect the signs of suicide and what to do when they are apparent; and Whereas, according
to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the second leading cause of death in Florida for
people ages 10 to 34, and the leading cause of violent death in the U.S. for adults ages 35 to 65; and Whereas, on
the Treasure Coast and in Okeechobee, 66 people have died by suicide so far in 2017, with 541 people dying by
suicide in the previous five years; and Whereas, these staggering numbers don I adequately represent the families
that have been torn apart by suicide, nor the trauma resulting from the sudden and violent loss of a loved one that
will impact children and adults for years to come; and Whereas, there is hope, however, because suicide is 100
percent preventable, through education, outreach and treatment. It all begins with a conversation; one human
helping another. Now, Therefore, 1, Dowling R. Watford, Jr., by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the
City of Okeechobee, Florida, do hereby proclaim September 2017 as `National Suicide Prevention Awareness
Month'."

hunger and poverty remain issues of grave concern in the United States, the State of
Florida, the Treasure Coast, and Okeechobee County, and
WHEREAS, Okeechobee County is committed to taking steps to raise awareness about the need to combat
hunger in every part of our County and to provide additional resources that citizens of
Okeechobee County need; and
WHEREAS, food banks and hunger relief organizations across the country, including the Treasure Coast
Food Bank, will participate in Hunger Action Day on September 14th and will host
numerous events throughout the month of September to shed light on this important issue
and encourage involvement in efforts to end hunger in their local community.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Dowling R. Watford, Jr., by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the
City of Okeechobee, Florida, do hereby proclaim the month of September 2017 as
"Hunger Action Month."

WHEREAS, September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and mental health providers
across the nation are reaching out to communities to engage in open discourse, providing vital
information on how to detect the signs of suicide and what to do when they are apparent; and
WHEREAS, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the second
leading cause of death in Florida for people ages 10 to 34, and the leading cause of violent death in
the U.S. for adults ages 35 to 65; and
WHEREAS, on the Treasure Coast and in Okeechobee, 66 people have died by suicide so far in 2017, with
541 people dying by suicide in the previous five years; and
WHEREAS, these staggering numbers don't adequately represent the families that have been torn apart by
suicide, nor the trauma resulting from the sudden and violent loss of a loved one that will impact
children and adults for years to come; and
WHEREAS, there is hope, however, because suicide is 100 percent preventable, through education,
outreach and treatment. It all begins with a conversation; one human helping another.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Dowling R. Watford, Jr., by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the
City of Okeechobee, Florida, do hereby proclaim September 2017 as "National Suicide

5. Performance Measures.
The Grantee warrants that: (1) the services will be performed by qualified personnel; (2) the services will be of the
kind and quality described in the Grant Work Plan; (3) the services will be performed in a professional and
workmanlike manner in accordance with industry standards and practices; (4) the services shall not and do not infringe
upon the intellectual property rights, or any other proprietary rights, of any third party; and (5) its employees,
subcontractors, and/or subgrantees shall comply with any security and safety requirements and processes, if provided
by the Department, for work done at the Project Location(s). The Department reserves the right to investigate or
inspect at any time whether the services or qualifications offered by the Grantee meet the Agreement requirements.
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, written acceptance of a particular deliverable/minimum requirement
does not foreclose the Department's remedies in the event those performance standards that cannot be readily
measured at the time of delivery are not met.
6. Acceptance of Deliverables.
a. Acceptance Process. All deliverables must be received and accepted in writing by the Department's Grant
Manager before payment. The Grantee shall work diligently to correct all deficiencies in the deliverable that
remain outstanding, within a reasonable time at the Grantee's expense. If the Department's Grant Manager does
not accept the deliverables within 30 days of receipt, they will be deemed rejected.
b. Rejection of Deliverables. The Department reserves the right to reject deliverables, as outlined in the Grant
Work Plan, as incomplete, inadequate, or unacceptable due, in whole or in part, to the Grantee's lack of
satisfactory performance under the terms of this Agreement. The Grantee's efforts to correct the rejected
deliverables will be at the Grantee's sole expense. The Grantee shall only invoice the Department for
deliverables that are completed in accordance with the Grant Work Plan. Failure to fulfill the applicable
technical requirements or complete all tasks or activities in accordance with the Grant Work Plan will result in
rejection of the deliverable and the associated invoice. Payment for the rejected deliverable will not be issued
unless the rejected deliverable is made acceptable to the Department in accordance with the Agreement
requirements. The Department, at its option, may allow additional time within which the Grantee may remedy
the objections noted by the Department. The Grantee's failure to make adequate or acceptable said deliverables
after a reasonable opportunity to do so may constitute an event of default.
7. Financial Consequences for Nonperformance.
a. Withholding Payment. In addition to the specific consequences explained in the Grant Work Plan and/or
Special Terms and Conditions, the State of Florida (State) reserves the right to withhold payment when the
Grantee has failed to perform/comply with provisions of this Agreement. These consequences for
nonperformance shall not be considered penalties.
b. Corrective Action Plan. If the Grantee fails to correct all the deficiencies in a rejected deliverable within the
specified timeframe, the Department may, in its sole discretion, request that a proposed Corrective Action Plan
(CAP) be submitted by the Grantee to the Department. The Department shall provide the Grantee with a written
request for a CAP that specifies the outstanding deficiencies. All CAPS must be able to be implemented and
performed in no more than sixty (60) calendar days.
i. The Grantee shall submit a CAP within ten (10) calendar days of the date of the written request from
the Department. The CAP shall be sent to the Grant Manager for review and approval. Within ten
(10) calendar days of receipt of a CAP, the Department shall notify the Grantee in writing whether
the CAP proposed has been accepted. If the CAP is not accepted, the Grantee shall have ten (10)
calendar days from receipt of the Department letter rejecting the proposal to submit a revised
proposed CAP. Failure to obtain the Department approval of a CAP as specified above shall result
in the Department's termination of this Agreement for cause as authorized in this Agreement.
ii. Upon the Department's notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP, the Grantee shall have ten (10)
calendar days to commence implementation of the accepted plan. Acceptance of the proposed CAP
by the Department does not relieve the Grantee of any of its obligations under the Agreement. In
the event the CAP fails to correct or eliminate performance deficiencies by Grantee, the Department
shall retain. the right to require additional or further remedial steps, or to terminate this Agreement
for failure to perform. No actions approved by the Department or steps taken by the Grantee shall
preclude the Department from subsequently asserting any deficiencies in performance. The Grantee
shall continue to implement the CAP until all deficiencies are corrected. Reports on the progress of
the CAP will be made to the Department as requested by the Department Grant Manager.
iii. Failure to respond to a Department request for a CAP or failure to correct a deficiency in the

reasonably foreseeable, within five days after the date the Grantee first had reason to believe that a delay could result.
THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE THE GRANTEE'S SOLE REMEDY OR EXCUSE WITH
RESPECT TO DELAY. Providing notice in strict accordance with this paragraph is a condition precedent to such
remedy. No claim for damages, other than for an extension of time, shall be asserted against the Department. The
Grantee shall not be entitled to an increase in the Agreement price or payment of any kind from the Department for
direct, indirect, consequential, impact or other costs, expenses or damages, including but not limited to costs of
acceleration or inefficiency, arising because of delay, disruption, interference, or hindrance from any cause
whatsoever. If performance is suspended or delayed, in whole or in part, due to any of the causes described in this
paragraph, after the causes have ceased to exist the Grantee shall perform at no increased cost, unless the Department
determines, in its sole discretion, that the delay will significantly impair the value of the Agreement to the Department,
in which case the Department may (1) accept allocated performance or deliveries from the Grantee, provided that the
Grantee grants preferential treatment to Department with respect to products subjected to allocation; (2) contract with
other sources (without recourse to and by the Grantee for the related costs and expenses) to replace all or part of the
products or services that are the subject of the delay, which purchases may be deducted from the Agreement quantity;
or (3) terminate the Agreement in whole or in part.
