Mayor Kirk asked whether there were any comments from the public. Mr. Tommy Hoover addressed the Council regarding the moratorium on Commercial Business District (CBD) zoning districts and questioned when the ban or moratorium would be lifted? Mayor Kirk along with Council Members Watford and Markham explained that the moratorium was put in place by ordinance. There will be no more CBD zoning. This will be the last one providing it is granted. Council Member Chandler commented that there are several problems within the City where businesses are having to use the streets and/or alleyways to accommodate for parking which is what the CBD zoning helped to provide. The Council needs to consider finding a solution to these situations that would help the owners so they can operate their businesses. Mayor Kirk remarked that should the Council want to do something regarding the moratorium, it would be discussed at a later date.

Okeechobee Main Street (OKMS) presented a request for permission to operate a Green Market (also known as a Farmers Market) within Flagler Park No. 2 every Thursday, from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. during the Fall Season. The "mission" or intent of the Market is to provide the community an alternative shopping experience for healthy, fresh foods and products in a convenient customer friendly environment. The goal of the Market is to provide an opportunity for local vendors to sell their produce or products to residents of and visitors to Okeechobee County and surrounding areas. The ideal Market vendor will have grown the product they sell, or will have produced a product out of locally grown items. 1 391 OCTOBER 4, 2005 - REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 9 OF 13 Vill. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. I. Discussion pertaining to providing a Green Market in Flagler Park Other Market vendors would exchange the Market experience, for example, vendors who sell beverages and food continued. products for consumption at a Market, making the Market a destination for quality shopping and enjoyable items. In addition to fresh vegetables, the Market will offer a variety of consumer products such as seafood, meats, sauces, jellies and jams, pickles and honey products. A variety of "ready -to -eat' items such as conch fritter, lemonade, desserts, and breads. Lastly, a variety of natural products such as soap and shampoo. A list of potential vendors who have shown interest in being a part of the Market was distributed. OKMS submitted a copy of rules and regulations that the vendors would have to follow. This is not a fund-raising event. Each vendor will pay a fifteen -dollar fee to cover costs associated with advertising the Market. Council Member Watford moved to allow OKEECHOBEE Main Street to host a Green Market in Flagler Park N0.3 on Thursday's from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.; seconded by Council Member Chandler. There was a lengthy discussion regarding the proposed Market. OKMS President, Maureen Burrough's addressed the Council regarding their proposal for the Market. She explained that there will be guidelines for vendor participation. They will limit vendors to only those that sell food items that are locally grown or produced. OKMS will manage the vendors' selection and oversee the execution of the event. Mr. Darrell Donnelly, President of the Chamber of Commerce, and Mrs. Brenda O'Connor, Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce, briefly addressed the Council stating their support of the Green Market. Council Member Markham expressed his objection to the Market since it will allow for -profit vendors to sell their goods within the parks. He noted a letter distributed to everyone prior to the meeting from one of the Hamrick Estate Trustees, David Hamrick. The letter is dated May 17, 2000 and outlines what the Trustee's feel proper uses of Flagler Park are and what the role of the City Council is in regards to regulations and control of the parks. Attorney Cook addressed the Hamrick Trust's position stating that the City has been down this road before. The Hamrick Trust's interpretation of public use and the City's is clearly not the same. He stated that in his legal opinion, what OKMS has presented is clearly a public use and gives the chance for a non-profit to do something economically good for the community. He considers it in the same manner as when the Chamber of Commerce utilizes the park for their festivals. There is nothing in writing to prohibit such an event.

Consider a Preliminary Plat approval for Brentwood Estates - Mark Troendle (Exhibit 10). A final plat was approved for Brentwood Estates on June 15, 2004. The initial project proposed an Okeechobee Utility Authority (OUA) wastewater connection. However, once the project began, it was discovered that the two methods of OUA wastewater service would not be best for this subdivision. The developer, Mark Troendle, met with OUA Executive Director Fortner and Health Department representatives and obtained approval for septic tanks. Later it was discovered that since the City was not included in the modification of the project the developer had two choices. Either put the wastewater connections in as proposed originally or resubmit for plat approval making the necessary changes to the project. Mr. Troendle opted to resubmit for plat approval. Based on the application information, Brentwood Estates is a proposed subdivision within the Southeast section of the City. The property owner is Brentwood Acres, LLC, with a mailing address of 909 Southeast 9m Avenue, Okeechobee, Florida. The applicant is Mr. Mark Troendle. The project engineer is Mr. Loris C. Asmussen and surveyor is Mr. James Almond. The project is a 15-single family residential lot subdivision to be completed in one phase. The existing improvements consist of some residences under construction. The total land area in square feet is 385,811 and 8.856 acres. Existing impervious surface is 1200 square feet, 0.0275 acres and 0.3 percent of the site. The owner is proposing to modify the previously approved plat from water and sewer to water and septic tanks. The proposed plat is located in the 900, 1000, 1100 and 1200 Blocks of Southwest 101h Street. Additional impervious surface is 62,243 square feet, 1.4289 acres and 16 percent of the site. Total impervious surface 63,443 square feet and 1.4565 and 16 percent of site. The current zoning is RSF-1 and Future Land Use is Single Family. The Technical Review Committee (TRC) reviewed the Plat Pre -Application at the September 28, 2005 meeting and recoMmended approval with the following stipulations: (1) front building setbacks must be a minimum of 35 feet, due to septic tanks being installed in the front yards. (2) Circular drives will not be permitted due to septic tanks being installed in the front yards. (3) Topographic of each lot must be shown on the plat drawings. There was a lengthy discussion between Mr. Troendle and the Council. Council Member Watford reminded everyone of a past developer who made changes to projects after they were approved and left the City dealing with the problems those changes created. He also noted that approving this really puts us (the City) in a bad situation and sets a dangerous precedence. Mr. Troendle remarked that he did not have intentions to deceive the City, but, is learning how the process works. He explained he was not aware that the change would need to come before the Council, and explained in the future he would be more diligent in working closer with City staff.

K. Consider a request for a reduction in parking space requirements An application was submitted by Mr. David and Rose Conlon, on behalf of the property owner Okeeland, LLC for a submitted by Okeel-and, LLC - David Conlon (Exhibit 11). reduction in parking space requirements. The subject property is located at 501 Northeast Park Street. The TRC discussed the parking reduction request at their September 28, 2005 meeting. The TRC recommendation was to have the owner submit a parking study with his request to the City Council for final approval. Attorney Cook explained that the purpose of the parking study was to better support this request. Mr. Conlon gave a lengthy presentation of the proposed project with detailed parking information. After his presentation, Council Member Markham asked City Planning Consultant LaRue, whether or not a parking study would provide the City with any additional information than what was presented tonight? Mr. LaRue responded no, it would not. Council Member Watford moved to approve a 12 percent parking reduction (10 spaces) for Okeeland, LLC., with the condition that the City would reconsider the parking reduction upon: (11) any complaints through or from the Police Department; (2) should there be a change of use; (3) and that the current trees must be maintained, or replaced if they die; seconded by Council Member Markham.

M. Discussion pertaining to Commerce Center proposals - City Administrator Whitehall was directed by the Council at the September 20, 2005 meeting, to send a questionnaire to Administrator. any business expressing interest in purchasing land within the City Commerce Center. The proposed business was asked to disclose what type of business they want to operate; how many jobs will the business will create; amount of acreage required, or size of the lot needed; what their existing track record is; when they will open for business and to make offer per acre to purchase the land. The questionnaire was sent to the following businesses: Adron Fence Company/C & C Ornamental Gates, Inc., Charlie's Tree and Lawn, Chobee Commercial, Inc., Close Construction, Inc., East Coast Properties, Florida Power and Light Company, Holmes Cabinets, Inc., Lakeshore Mechanics, Inc., and Tanks Auto Diagnostic and Repair. Five were returned completed by: Adron Fence Company/C & C Ornamental Gates, Inc., Florida Power and Light, Holmes Cabinets, Lakeshore Mechanics and Janks Auto Diagnostic and Repair. There was a lengthy discussion between the Council Members regarding how to proceed, what is the fair market value and what type of business should be allowed within the Commerce Center. The consensus of the Council was that retail businesses would not be considered. Mayor Kirk remarked that the price of fifty thousand dollars per acre offered by three of the businesses was a fair offer considering they were local. Mayor Kirk also expressed that he would rather offer the opportunity to our local businesses at a lesser price than to those out of town for the higher market value. Ross Chambers, owner of Adron Fence/C & C Ornamental Gates, Inc., addressed the Council and explained that they are a local company with 32 employees. Where they are currently located there is no room for growth, this purchase would give them the opportunity for expansion and growth. Mrs. Linda Holmes, owner of Holmes Cabinets, Inc. was present and addressed the Council expressing that this would alleviate the problem of growth for them well. They would like to continue to stay here as a local business. Mayor Kirk instructed City Administrator Whitehall to contact Nancy Phillips, CitYs Grant Consultant, to make sure that these proposals are feasible for our grant qualifications, and then to meet in negotiations with the three companies that offered fifty thousand dollars per acre, those being Adron Fence/C & C Ornamental Gates, Holmes Cabinets, Inc. and Florida Power and Light. �1 395 OCTOBER 4, 2005 - REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 13 OF 13 1 Vill.

MOTION AND SECOND BY WILLIAMS AND CHANDLER TO ADOPT STILL ON THE FLOOR FROM 9120105 2. a) Public comments and discussion. Tommy Hoover, dissatisfaction with being allowed to add CBD, when will the band or moratorium be lifted? DW, A LM there will be no more CBD zoning. If this one is granted this is it, no more. Reason I ask is I have several properties in the city and it would be financially advantageous to change to that zoning. Others also want to do. DW discussed several times, not re -hash this further. Many times when we allow businesses to use the alley as an access point, we normally have them make improvements to the alley so that its more usable, and we cause a use of alley agreement and perhaps this is one of those cases where a use of alley be used. NC - several problems within the city having to use the streets and/or alleyways, need to fix these situations, find some way where they can open their business, CBD went away and now that stops that. X - if council wants to do something with this moratorium we can, but a separate action, we are only to look at this property that we are on. Tommy Hoover, to address what noel said, expressed CBD not be expanded, also been some discussion, in attempt to .... maybe a separate zoning district for businesses that have parking mostly on city streets, I'd be the first one on the name on the list, maybe have a committee or group to meet and discuss all these areas within the downtown. X at this point what needs to be done is discuss what the agenda item is, we're stretching what the subject matter is that we're suppose to be discussing. b) Vote on motion.

The application was submitted by property owners, Hubert and Rachel Phillips. Planning Staff Report Summary: A site plan has been recommended for approval by the City staff (TRC). The subject parcel is part of the restaurant improvements and must have proper commercial zoning.

The Future Land Use is Commercial and these lots (used for parking) will be consistent, should the rezoning be granted. (B) Parking is allowed and authorized by the CHV zoning district. (C) The zoning and use will be a positive effect for the public. (D) The zoning (CHV) and parking as a use are appropriate for the location as proposed. (E) The parking is included in an approved site plan and the rezoning removes present inconsistencies. (F) Buffering will be a part of the site plan requirements. (G) There is no density involved in this request. (H) The impacts for traffic should be minimal. (1) There are no inordinate restrictions for this proposed use and rezoning. (J) The rezoning would not be a privilege. Planning Staff Report Summary and Conclusions Prior to Certification: For the above reasons the rezoning is consistent with The City's Comprehensive Plan and should be approved.

Watford moved to allowy Discussion pertaining to providing a Green Market in Flagler Park on Thursdays from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. - Maureen Burroughs (Exhibit 9). Second Chandler. OKMS goal to revitatlize dowtown, traveled to surrounding towns, circuit of vendors that travel around, asked if they would want to come to Okeechobee, advised they would, Thursday's fit most people's schedule. Park 3 is the propsed park, LM - if they are going to have vendors in there they are going to have private enterprises in the park, if you do this you are having more of the same problem taht we have with the chamber, goes against the hamrick trust wishes, when doing this you open this to allowing anyone for -profit business in there. Cook - file for last 15 years, don't think there's anything we don't have. First not taking position whether trust has valid interest in parks, streets or alleys. Derives from original plat, and then the trust from his original estate, will. Court order trust operatesunder trustee directed under last will & testiment, will says that I direct reasonably necessary from closing parks street or alley, that's it, nothing in writing that indicates there can't be any type of vendors use in the parks and sale of goods in the aprks. In my opinion legally what chamber has done for years, another non profit group doing a purpose or make money and promoting interest of th ecommunity. Trust always written letters sayingwaht they like. Trust has no say so as to city's use of parks. If we gave vendor license to set up hotdog stand in the park clearly no purpose or use for the public, but if the council Page -6- has always permitted chamber & non profits from sitting up in the park. JK with chamber thought we didn't allow businesses to come I? Cook what's been said & what's been done DW right, always encouraged the chamber not to allow local businesses for profit to sale things in the park, some discussion that we haven't enforced that, somewhat breaking new ground. Some of these vendors would be for profit business but operating OKMS. This would probably open chamber to open their policy. Chamber does good job not letting others compete with organization controls competition, allows for variety, would be different than what is allowed in the past. JK - 5 of us will have to make some kind of decision, if we go along with this, have to let the chamber have for profit business in their festivals. Can't do one and not the other. DW agree with attorney, don't want to let and that's where we control it, OKMS has definition of what they will allow, IE ford motor company coming in there, sold sub sandwiches may allow me to have a booth, think chamber if they allow have guidelines to. We can control it. Business wanting festival, tell them no, as long as its under non profit and it's a learning curve. Every organization, can have a festival, etc, they can go in the park. If chamber requests the same and present us with an outline and documents of their festival as OKMS has. Maureen, understand Hamrick trust view. But when OKMS not individual promotion of any one business, its what I want to do to have fun with my family. NC - Okeechobee growing, things are changing, got to have new ideas. LM - disagree, going against what the parks were put in there for. Once it ceases use of public use it goes back to the owners. DW - respect their opinion, different interpretation, for public use, always heard, far as I'm concerned allowing chamber, OKMS, clubs is a public use, agree if organization wanted to charge people to be in there park then it ceases being a public use, this is a non profit and free to the community, public doesn't pay any of that, festival, county fair, or any type of things community events and done all the time, parks are under utilized and the more we can use them the better downtown is. LM - john do you have the May 17, 2000 letter, use of park fund-raising enterprise, and that their may not be any. JC - trustee's opinion, not in the court order, not taking position on the trust, not going to get into that tonight, keep in mind under testimony, revert to trust then either sold or deeded to heirs and then on tax rolls. If they have a valid stand. LM - sat and talked with Hamrick, stated uses as heir and trustee and the way he explained to me is what I'm going to go by, cannot consciencely vote for this, not in favor of it and think your are going against what Hamrick wishes are, Maureen, not a fund-raiser for OKMS, event to get the public into downtown, we're not getting money from this. LM but people you use are for profit. (Discussion back in forth, bartering at first when the park started, then chamber started using it as a money making thing, tried to get control over that, heirs have voiced their opinion and no one really cares and I think that is wrong, feels we should their wishes, overseeing someone's property, the city is just an overseer of a piece of property that the city has been given to use. JC legal perspective, trust is like contract in a way, have to be spelled out, wishes as to who can and cannot come into the park is not spelled out and the interpretation of public use of the park and I'm giving the council the opinion that we are legally able to allow it. Terry Burroughs, believe using the same rules as the chamber, both non-profit organizations, chamber has been providing this with great success, same hospice. LM - the 10 x 10 renting? Minimum charge of $15 to help with advertising. NC - don't have problem with market coming in, years ago had street dances out there, dance all night long, the local businesses brought their items out and sold them in the park. Been to many events, saw stuff they made in the park. Chamber gets some of their funding through that. Don't see any problem with that as long as they are using it for the public and bringing ti downtown. Since chamber brough tinto th evortex, simple thing, nothing in print saying we can't do this, we do the best we can, stand with OKMS, why are we trying to keep people from downtown, represent small business, and I have to tell them that they cannot come in there and sale there stuff, when out of towners can come in, I'm sure hamrick had a viosion and didn't want to keep monster busienss coming in there, what is so terrible to let the small business, who is our tax base work through the parks. 40 • Page -7- Lydia, face business owners, let others come in, year after year, working with the chamber, etc, believe for the betterment of the public, might be people from downtown, let our businesses that pay the taxes be here and have first choice, have a food market, its our community and it needs to be worked togethwer, need to work with the trust and think hamrick would Brenda O'Connor, Chamber, excited about what I am hearing, think it is good, director of chamber, familiar wiht the rules and regulations, if you are a non profit you can sale things in there, step forward, have a lot of people who want to be in the park, agriculture area, see these everywhere, we are the hub of south central florida, people come here and spend their money here, and they are main stay taxes, thank you for your comments tonight.

Consider a Preliminary Plat approval for Brentwood Estates - Mark Troendle (Exhibit 10). Based on application information, Brentwood Estates is a proposed subdivision within the Southeast section of the City. The property owner is Brentwood Acres, LLC, with a mailing address of 909 Southeast 9" Avenue, Okeechobee, Florida. The applicant is Mark Troendle, project engineer is Loris C. Asmussen and surveyor is James Almond. The project is a 15-single family residential lot subdivision to be completed in one phase. The existing improvements consist of some residences under construction. The total land area in square feet is 385,811 and 8.856 acres. Existing impervious surface is 1200 square feet, 0.0275 acres and 0.3 percent of the site. Additional impervious surface is 62,243 square feet, 1.4289 acres and 16 percent of the site. Total impervious surface 63,443 square feet and 1.4565 and 16 percent of site. The current zoning is RSF-1 and Future Land Use is Single Family. Original proposal had a sewer system, need to go to septic tanks. OUA capacity? That's part of it. But not reason, septic system would be better. DW - how did we get there? Brian - lots sold, legal ramifications. DW - don't mean to accuse you but this really puts us in a bad situation and puts us in a dangerous precedence. You have houses built, wouldn't have problem, if we tell you no then we look like a bad guy. What if we told you no? Don't really know, could go back to original sewer, don't want to do pumps because of problems. Brian while we at it we need to address storm water drainage. Mark - willing to work with public works to take care of this problem on whatever needs to be done. Council Member Chandler moved to approve a preliminary plat for Brentwood Estates; seconded by Council Member Williams. DW - tough one. City left out when change was made to go to septic.

Consider a request for a reduction in parking space requirements submitted by OkeeLand, LLC -David Conlon (Exhibit 11). Cook, typically when we have these requests, show, appears some painted over parking spaces on NE 5 & 6'h Avenue under Page -8- LDR's advised board that this council can make reduction if other with property other than on street parking, no parking study to back up the presentation Mr. Conlon asked for this reduction in parking. Watford, little confused, letter, asking for 8% at beginning of letter and then ending at 12 percent. 10 spaces. Why not do a parking study? It's a big expense and for what? Between $3,000 - $5,000. If granted, because of tree's and appreciate that. One of the other ones we did, the tree mysteriously died and was taken out. If trees died would you replace them? Not that kind of a tree. Whatever kind of contingency you want for the tree I'll put in there. Ask staff, who chairs the meetings? Get feeling from the way motion was worded not strong LaRue, involved, no reflection on Mr. Conlon, square footage is correct. Wanted parking study because of changes that happen with developments. Markham, on parking study give you more info than what you have now? Probably not but we have set a prescedence to get those parking studies. Show patterns of those types of business, trips, etc., when 10 short, don't have something to compare it to, and still difficult to answer if its converted to another type of business. Basing it to justify the 10 spots where we can gain some of them with contract letter, pick up off side street and by moving trees. Conlon - Willing to bear expense to strip those spaces that are on the on -street and fit the flow. Council Member Watford moved to approve 12% parking for OkeeLand LLC 10 spaces, with th econsidtion readdress if any complaints through police, problems, changes of use, and that the tree's be maintained; seconded by Council Member Markham.

Discussion pertaining to Commerce Center proposals - City Administrator. Based on direction of the Council at the September 20, 2005 meeting a questionnaire was sent to any business that has expressed an interest in purchasing land in the City Commerce Center. The questionnaire was sent to Adron Fence Company, Inc., Charlie's Tree and Lawn, ChobeeComm, Inc., Close Construction, Inc., East Coast Properties, Florida Power and Light Company, Homes Cabinets, Inc., Lakeshore Mechanics, Inc., and Tanks Auto Diagnostic and Repair. The five returned were by Adron, FPL, Holmes, Lakeshore and Janks. Watford, do not want to see any type of retail business. Looking at FLP shows promise, Adron and Holmes. Other two are retail type and price per acre proposed is to low. Look and might could rearrange some lots or something to make that work with the acreage we have left. Administrator meet with them and see what can be worked out. JK discussing price? LM don't think so, price in half and giving incentives, like creating jobs, etc, can't cut price and Watford and Markham agreed on this issue of not giving incentives at that price. Kirk, agree. Rather sell to local companies at lower price. Ask Nancy to see if any of these would qualify with grants to finish. Next years grant so that would not be benefitial. Could be part of the negotiate. Chandler no problem with price that's on here, $50,000.00. Markham, think price is low for developed land wiht water sewer and street on it. $110,000.00 per acre. Kirk, all fairnest to Markham, if we wanted to stand firm with the land and wait for nothing but out of town people we'd get more than $110,000.00. Don't think its what we want in there. Don't think your price is out of line. LM use the land to create new business. Page -9- JK if we have people hampered locally let them in the park and expand and all are proposing to add jobs. LM - first one, 32 employees, what they have, will be increasing from 32. Ross Chambers, Adron Fence, C&C Ornamental Gates, looking to grow and distribute, gives us the opportunity to grow after we have the property. Need 17 - 20 acres. Looking long term and a lot of hopefulness. Other companies looking at us, hate them not have the same opportunities. Any piece of the pie would be a blessing. 22 approx acres left, want Lots 17 - 20. As much as possible the Council is looking for mostly manufacturing. Mayor will come in if you need me. Linda Holmes of Holmes Cabinet agree as a local company, that eliviate burden and get moved in right away, have a closet system to get busy. M.

The remodeling will be within the footprint of the existing building. The developer proposes to reconfigure the parking area for safety reasons by relocating the travel lane adjacent to the building to the North, which will keep patrons from crossing the travel lane. On August 3rd 2004, the City of Okeechobee passed Ordinance No. 866 which prohibits commercial landusers from using land zoned RSF-1 as parking. We were advised after submitting our application to site plan review that the city is requiring rezoning as businesses submit various applications to the City. Therefore, we are submitting the rezoning request to change the zoning from the existing single family residential to commercial zoning so our patrons can park in the rear parking area - If you should have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to give us a call Sincerely, Hubert S.

Dobbs, P.E. # 48134 Rudd Jones, P. E. & Associates, P. A. 210 Northwest Park. Street, Suite 204 Okeechobee, FL 34972 Purpose: The purpose of this report is to provide the City of Okeechobee with the calculations and documentation necessary to demonstrate the proposed site modifications complies with state and local criteria. Project Description: The site is approximately 0.69 acres in size and is located in Section 21, Township 37 South, Range 35 East a (Parcel ID 3- 21-37-35-0040-00170-0050), Lots 5, 6, 11 & 12, Block 17, South Okeechobee. The current discharge is an exfiltration trench with three inlets onsite. We are requesting a construction permit for building, parking area, pole barn, and dry retention area with drainage offsite to Wolff Slough. The drainage calculations and routing will cover water quality for the proposed site improvements. The Soils Map for Okeechobee County indicates that this parcel's soils are made up of Immokalee Fine Sand soils, which are very poorly drained in the natural state. However, the City of Okeechobee's drainage system has been improved and these soils will be treated as a better drained soil. There is currently no provision for offsite drainage until the exfiltration trench system is overwhelmed and drainage sheet flows into adjacent streets. Proposed Use: The developer proposes a remodel of the existing building during the conversion to a Dairy Queen Grill and Chill. This remodeling will be within the footprint of the existing building. The developer proposes to reconfigure the parking area for safety reasons by relocating the travel lane adjacent to the building to the north, which will keep patrons from crossing the travel lane and provide additional drainage on -site. Parking Considerations: There are currently 34 parking spaces provided. The existing building is 2,375 square feet and the courtyard is 927 square feet for a total of 3,302 gross square feet. Based on the City's requirement for 1 parking space for every 75 square feet of building space, the total required parking is 44. The future 44 spaces required for the 3,300 gross square footage cannot be met with the revised parking alignment. The proposed parking layout provides an additional parking space for a total of 35 parking spaces provided on -site. Due to the safety considerations for the patrons, a 20% parking reduction has been filed with the City for their favorable consideration. 2 Aesthetics: Below are some pictures of existing Grill and Chills and what the remodeled building will look like. Daylight View of a Grill & Chill Drainaee Considerations: According to the attached report by Technical Inspections, Inc., the existing exfiltration trench from the inlet north of the building to the west inlet at the back of the parking area is approximately 200 feet and shows the south inlet in the drive thru is tied into this line to the north. The existing system is approximately 250 long and given the infiltration rate of 2.89 x 10-04 cfs/ft- ft head fron the attached report prepared by A. M. Engineering and Testing, Inc. and using a safety factor of 2 should provide protection of 1.8 inches of the first hour of rainfall for the site, which is less than the required 2.5" times the percentage of impervious area for water quality. An exfiltration trenches design is based on the first hour of rainfall under the given conditions due to ground water mounding and the rapidly changing conditions associated with additional rainfall a rated protection for additional rainfall past the first hour would be a guess at best. To improve the capacity of the existing exfiltration system, the developer is installing an additional drainage inlet and an additional 110 feet of exfiltration trench, which will be tied into the existing system. This should provide an additional O.T' of protection to bring the total protection for the site to 2.5 inches. Technical Data Commercial Site Total Site Area: 0.69 acres Project Drainage Area: 0.69 acres Project Drainage Area: Pervious Impervious Total Drainage Basin = 0.17 acres 0.52 acres 0.69 acres Total Drainage Area = 0.17 acres 0.52 acres 0.69 acres Total Impervious Area = 0.52 acres (751/6) Total Pervious Area = 0.73 acres (25%) A. Water Quality Water quality treatment is provided in the form of exfiltration trench for the project drainage area. Water quality calculations are provided as follows: For Drainage Area: Req. WQ Volume = 1" * (0.69) * (1712") = 0.06 Ac-Ft; or 2.5" x % impervious x WQ area/12 = 2.5"(0.52 acres/0.69 acres) x (0.69 acresY12 = 0.11 acre-feet. 0.5" of dry pretreatment = 0.5" * (1.37) * (1712") = 0.06 acre-feet. Since the invert elevation of the exfiltration trench is above the wet season water table, the system meets the dry detention criteria as specified under Section 5.2.1 of the SFWMD's Environmental Resource Permit Information Manual Volume IV. B. Water Quantity This project is an existing site with no means of controlling storm water above the exfiltration trench described above. Storm water in excess of the exfiltration trench designed for 2.5" of rainfall will sheet 4 flow into the adjacent streets as is currently the case, however, since additional exfiltration trench is being installed, the future quantity flowing offsite will be reduced. Off -site Drainage: This is an existing system with no impacts to the perimeter of the site so no off -site drainage is anticipated to be impacted from this construction. Environmental: There are no environmental impacts expected from this construction. Construction Recommendations: Run-off and any water generated by short-term dewatering generated during construction shall be contained on -site. However, there is some potential for transport of sediment to off -site areas should heavy rainfall occur. We therefore recommend installation of temporary silt fence around the entire construction area during site work to reduce the potential of any off -site transport of sediment or turbidity. Conclusions: In my professional opinion, the proposed construction should have no impact to existing drainage patterns off -site and should have no impact on off -site areas. The recommendations above should be followed during and after the site work until such time as the ground surface has been adequately stabilized to prevent the off -site transport of any soil or suspended solids. The proposed design and construction will meet all local, state and federal requirements. 4 CMF No.4276 Wire FC: 0.3' N. Cha I n I i nk Ends: 0.5' E. , 0. 5' S.

THE MURAL AND VISUAL ARTS PROGRAM What is a Mural? A mural is a pictorial representation designed or intended to reflect a thematic or artist's expression rather than advertising a concept. Murals within the Okeechobee Main Street program are further defined as "a visual depiction of a person, location, event or thing" which constitutes an amenity, and does not serve any advertising pur- pose. A mural which is painted onto a wall may encompass up to 100 percent of the wall to which it is applied, provided that the mural com- plies with the approved Main Street Mural and Usual Arts Guidelines. What is Visual Art? Visual Art shall include sculpture, monuments., fountains, mosaic, ceramic, or stain glass that is installed on private or city property and visible to the public right-of-way that is not intended to identify or advertise a product, service or business, and complies with the approved Main Street Mural and Visual Arts Guidelines. Mural or Visual Art does not demonstrate any relationship to the busi- ness. Art normally does not include landscaping, paving or architec- tural ornamentation.

Currently, Vero Beach, Fort Pierce, Stuart, and Abacoa have a Green Market on various days, so as not to overlap each other, providing a convenient, less expensive alternative for the community to shop for fresh produce and other natural products. Basically, the vendors offer fresh vegetables, locally produced natural honey, organic soaps, fresh fish, unique plants for the home, etc. It provides a convenient "one stop shopping" for the community. We have visited these markets and vendors to better understand the process. These vendors are very willing and anxious to expand their circuit to include Okeechobee. In that light, we are looking to have our Green Market in Flagler Park weekly, on Thursdays from 4 — 7, to fit into their current schedule. We feel that that time frame is the most convenient to the local population: they are in town, on their way home from work, not an unnecessary trip to town, and we do not conflict with our local vendors that supply fresh produce on the weekends at the Flea Markets. We have applied to the City for a temporary permit for this event. In further planning, there is an issue that needs to be addressed by the City Council to ensure that this plan can be successful. There is an "unwritten" rule in the Hamrick Trust as it relates to anyone doing business on the parks' grounds if they are not a non-profit organization. We have obtained a copy of the Hamrick Trust to better understand the guidelines for the use of the parks. It is not stated in the legal documents; however, there is a clear statement in the Last Will & Testament that states that the Trustee of the estate has the obligation to ensure that the City does not abandon the use of the parks, etc. We understand that there has been a long standing issue with this. As a matter of fact, Main Street approached City Council last year to get a clarification of what constitutes a non- profit organization. The issue was not resolved at that time. We believe that legally, a non-profit status is obtained by filing it with the state of Florida. For example, a person makes homemade jellies, does not have business license but does come to the park events to sell the jellies. Currently, this is allowed. That person though sells their product to the public and makes a profit for themselves. Technically, this is not a non-profit business. We are not objecting to this policy but it does present an unfair advantage to our local businesses that have a business license, who cannot participate in the park events. Basically, what we would like to see changed, is that local "people" can promote their products in the park on an equal basis. The parks are supposed to be used by the city for the benefit of our community. If we have to bar certain local vendors of products because they have a business license, it limits our ability to provide a "full service" venue to the community population. In relation to the Green Market, currently there is a vendor who participates in all the towns, that owns a restaurant in Vero Beach, Captain Jerry's Fish House. At the markets, he sells fresh fish from coolers, as well as prepared fish dinners. Both offerings are a convenience to the public. With the current rules, we could not allow him to participate in our market. This would send a "unfriendly" message to our neighboring towns, as well as deny the community the ability to take advantage of his offerings. In that same light, we are promoting our own local businesses first to have the same capabilities. For example, we could offer the same opportunity to Naylor Seafood on SE Park Street to provide the same thing. If the business from Vero knows that and does not want to compete with a local vendor, then our local business benefits from that. In any case, our local business has the ability to compete and expand their selling horizons. It is a win -win situation for the local business and our community. We fully understand that each particular event that transpires in the City parks should have stringent guidelines as to the vendor participation. In our case, the Green Market, we would limit vendors to those that sell food items that are locally grown or produced, organic products, unique plant products, freshly cooked foods, etc. We would prohibit any other sales. Main Street would apply for the use permit as a non-profit organization, provide the insurance umbrella, manage the vendor selection, and oversee the execution of the event. To ensure that there are controls in place, Main Street could provide a list to the City of what types of vendors will engaged and who will be selected to participate. As Main Street matures and our community changes, we need to proactively and aggressively meet the community's changing needs. We need to provide more diverse choices and ones that fit into today's environment. Main Street is very anxious to proceed with the Green Market, especially in light of the approaching tourist season. We want to move forward and establish and keep the momentum. We do not want to start this and then have to stop or change the vendor mix. We would see this as a failure to the community and our organization. We are looking for City approval to proceed with this event and allow the right vendor selection to accommodate the community interest regardless of whether an appropriate vendor has a business license or not. We are also a strong proponent of supporting our local businesses to have more alternative sales opportunities. We want our businesses, whether licensed or not, to succeed and grow. This is all part of the National Main Street approach to revitalize a city, encourage growth, diversify the business mix, and give value to the local people. Please let us address this issue before City Council as quickly as possible so we can put the plan into action, bring a valuable service to the local people, prepare for the changing population's expectations, and let us make a difference! Thank you for this consideration.

This will confirm our telephone conversation of yesterday concerning the parks located within the City of Okeechobee, the proper use of the parks, and the role of the City Council in the regulation and control ofthc parks. I am attaching to this commiunication a short "HISTORY OF THE HA MCK TRUST' which I wrote a few years ago at the request of the Okeechobee Flews. The details and history ofthe park ownership arc adequately covered in this document_ It was the intention of the "Okeechobee Company" in 1914 that the "Parks, Streets. Alleys, or Ways" be for the free use of the public. It has always been the intention and desire of my family that the parks be for the free public use. We recognize the vital role of the City Council in administration and upkeep of the parks. We have always believed it was the City Council that should administer the parks for the free and public use of the citizens of Okeechobee_ When I say "tee and public use,., I rnean just that. I do not think that the City Council has the authority to grant to any organization the use of the parks as a fund raising enterprise. I recognize the proper use of the parks in various civic festivals, and I think it proper that the City Council grant to some organizational body who sponsors such festivals the authority to control space in the parks for various booths, display areas, etc. I think that all of this should be within the intended purpose of "tree and public use" of the area. I also think that it would be entirely. proper for the City Council to allow such organizational body to charge a fee for the use of booth or display area in an amount not to exceed the actual cost of ser`rices provided such as trash and garbage removal, extra police protection, portable toilets, signage, etc. I think that it would certainty proper for the City Council to enter into an agreement with any organizational body, and the Chamber of Commerce would be one, to provide such public service_ If they do enter into such an agreement, I think that the City Council should insist on a proper accounting ofthe fees charged and the expenses incurred to be Feb 17 04 11:55a Gilklbreth 863�63-2490 P,4 FROM : FAX NO. :9417925417 Feb. 17 2Oe4 10:54AM P4 sure that the parks are indeed being used freely by the public and not as a profit making enterprise of some organization. Unless some accounting is demanded by the City Council there is no way to determine if the booth and display fees are excessive. As indicated above, I think the City Council has the authority, and responsibility, to administer the parks for the free use of the public. I also think that the Councfl has the responsibility to insure that any organizational body granted use of the parks be guided by the same criteria of free and public use. I apologize for the length of this letter but i think this is a matter that has too Long been ignored. Over the Iasi se�+crel years I have heard numerous complaints overpr ced display area and unreasonable restrictions on who could sell or display, and what they could sell or display. I appreciate your interest in this matter and hope that you can be instrumental in bringing some order to the park use so that the festivals can continue and, be enjoyed by the citizens of Okeechobee in a reasonable and equitable meaner.

New Business, continued. G. Brentwood Estates - Pre -Application Plat Review. The application was submitted by Loris Asmussen on behalf of the property owner Mark Troendle. The property owner is proposing to modify a previously approved plat. The plat was approved with water and sewer. The property owner is now proposing to develop the subdivision with water and septic tanks. The proposed plat is to be located in the 900, 1000, 1100, and 1200 Blocks of Southwest 1 oth Street. • • Jim LaRue, City Planning Consultant, briefly reviewed the Staff Report Memo as follows: Planning Staff Report Discussion: This is a memo regarding the pre -application submittal for a preliminary plat for Brentwood Estates. This involves a subdivision that had been recently approved and recorded utilizing a sewer system. Now, the request is for a septic system rather than utilizing the Okeechobee Utility Authority's sewer system. The relevant comments are as follows: (1) Lot sizes should retain consistency with RSF-1 standards for widths, minimum size and setbacks. (2) The items of approval regarding sidewalks and other infrastructure shall remain in place. (3) With some of the lots being less than .5 acre, it should be determined whether it is appropriate to not require sewer for the whole subdivision. This determination should be from the Health Department, Utility Authority and/or the City Engineer. LC Fortner, Okeechobee Utility Authority, explained that if sewer is available it should be used. Mr. Fortner explained that sewer is available on Lot 1, and that the rest of the lots would require an extension. Eddie Trent, Health Department, questioned where the sewer was located? LC Fortner responded that the sewer was located in the Northwest Corner of the property. Loris Asmussen, Project Engineer, briefly described the history of the subdivision. He explained that an individual can and pump systems were proposed; however it was decided that septic tanks would be better. He explained that he and the applicant met with both the Okeechobee Utility Authority and the Health Department; however, did not meet with the City. LC Fortner stated that the individual can and pump systems are not the best system. Eddie Trent explained that under the Health Department Regulations, Mr. Troendle will meet the requirements for septic tanks if he has public water. Public water is proposed. Mr. Trent explained that he met with both Mr. Asmussen and Mr. Troendle and they have reached an agreement, providing the City approved the plat with septic tanks. He stated that the agreement involves: (1) no circle driveways will be permitted and (2) setback requirements must be more than 25 feet to allow for all septic tanks to be placed in the front yards.

Mark Troendle, Property owner, explained that the existing houses have 40 - 45 foot setbacks. Jim LaRue, City Planning Consultant, questioned whether any of the homes would require a front setback of less than 40 feet? Mark Troendle responded, not at this time, unless the lots have a curve in the front yard. Eddie Trent explained that 35 feet may be sufficient, as long as all driveways be placed along the side property line. Mr. Trent questioned the depth of lots 1 and 2. • Mark Troendle responded that they are approximately 90 feet. He explained that they did a preliminary site plan for each lot with the spec house, and all setbacks were met including the septic tank. Brian. Whitehall, City Administrator, reiterated the requirements that will be placed on this plat. (1) Building setbacks must be a minimum of 35', (2) Circular drives will not be permitted, (3) Topo of each lot must be shown on the plans. Oscar Bermudez, City Engineer, questioned whether any of the property owners had concerns the plat being modified to water and septic tanks? with Mark Troendle explained that there were no problems. Eddie Trent explained that under normal circumstances this a 1' • be approved. However, due to the sewer ca aci pp ication for septic tanks would not p ty problems that the Okeechobee Utility Authority is facing, he is recommending approval.

E. 3`d Avenue Okeechobee, FI 34974 Re: Request for Reduction of Parking Spaces New Commercial Construction located at 501 N. E. Park Street, Okeechobee, FI To Whom It May Concern: Pursuant to Section 90.482 (6), we request an 8% (6 spaces) reduction to the required off-street parking. As shown on the attached parking plan, we have a total of 74 spaces. In the back parking area we did not show use of 4 available spaces so that we could save oak trees and have green buffer areas for landscaping and shade. We also show three 40-foot parallel spaces vs. six 20-foot parallel spaces so as to accommodate those with oversized vehicles, boats -in -tow, and RVs. Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin Robbins has committed to Unit #1 and we have agreed that since their business is mostly finished by 11a.m., the other two units, if restaurants, will not be breakfast restaurants. Studies have shown that a drive-thru cuts down on the parking needs as opposed to no drive-thru. We would like to lease Units #2 & #3 to nationally known "quick casual" restaurants that do not open until 11a.m. "Quick casual" restaurants do not have a hostess and/or waiters and therefore the time and length of seating occupancy is not nearly as long as those of a "sit-down order' or the "stay & eat all you want' type of restaurants. Therefore, under Section 90.482 (6), some of the Unit #1 (28 spaces) will not overlap in time by granting a reduction of spaces. This would also be true because of the impact of a drive-thru in reducing the actual parking needs. When the building was planned we were told that walk-in refrigerator/freezers were ancillary uses and that their footage did not count toward parking space requirements. If this is not the case, we then request a reduction of 12% (10 spaces). Respectfully submitted by OkeeLand, LLC, r" vid M. Conlon, Manager DMC/rc SEPTEMBER 28, 2005 - TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE - PAGE 6 OF I� AGENDA ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE IV. • • New Business, continued. D. Okeeland, LLC. The application was submitted by David and Rose Conlon on behalf of the property owner, Okeeland, LLC. The property owner is requesting a twenty percent reduction in parking space requirements for a previously approved, but not yet constructed commercial project. The subject property is located at 501 Northeast Park Street. Jim LaRue, City Planning Consultant, briefly described that reduction of parking requests can be granted by the City Council based on a surplus of on -street parking being available. Mr. LaRue explained that in this case, there is no on -street parking available. Mr. LaRue questioned Mr. Conlon whether there was more proposed restaurant uses than before. Mr. LaRue also requested clarification regarding the Use of Alley Agreement. David Conlon, property owner, explained yes, three restaurant type uses are proposed. Mr. Conlon explained he did not have a Use of Alley Agreement with the City at this time. Mr. Conlon took a moment to explain his request to the Committee. He explained that he was utilizing Section 90- 482(6) of the City Codes related to non -competing businesses. He explained that he was currently requesting an 8% reduction (6 spaces) of parking as long as the in-store cooler was not utilized in calculating the parking space requirements. He explained that if the in-store cooler was utilized in calculating the parking space requirements a 12% reduction (10 parking space) would be necessary. Mr. Conlon explained that he has three large parking spaces located in the rear parking lot to accommodate RV's or truck and trailer parking. He also explained that he has chosen to leave several large oak trees causing the limitation of parking spaces. He explained that he would rather not make the three large parking spaces into six regular sized ones, as well as remove all of the trees creating four more parking spaces. Mr. Conlon explained that his proposed tenant is Dunkin Donuts. He stated that most of their traffic would be drive thru, and would be completed by 11:00 a.m. He explained that he would ensure the other two proposed tenants would not be open for breakfast. The other tenants will be quick -casual restaurants that open after 11:00 a.m. Mr. Conlon explained that one block away (at ABC Liquor) has on -street parking, and after inspecting his property there are several on -street parking spaces already striped. He explained that curb stops will need to be installed, and the stripes will need to be repainted. John Cook, City Attorney, explained that three years from now when Dunkin Donuts moves out, and a new restaurant moves in, there will not be enough parking. David Conlon explained that he will sign an agreement with the City stating that he understands that. Jim LaRue questioned the parking ratio that was utilized when the building was approved. Oscar Bermudez, City Engineer, explained that the ratio 1 space per 300 square feet was used initially. Then, the additional parking lot was added. SEPTEMBER 28, 2005 - TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE - PAGE 7 OF IV. New Business, continued. D. Okeeland, LLC, continued. • Jim LaRue, City Planning Consultant, questioned Mr. Conlon if 1 space per 75 square feet is required throughout the building; how many spaces would the project be short? Mr. Conlon responded that if the square footage is based on gross floor area (including freezer space) he would be 10 spaces short. If the square footage is based on excluding the freezer space, he would be 8 spaces short. Mr. Conlon wanted to note for the record that someone at LaRue Planning and Management informed him that a freezer space is considered an ancillary use, and should not be included in the square footage for parking space requirements. John Cook, City Attorney, explained that in Section 90-483 it states that if there is not sufficient on -street parking, the owner must submit a parking study showing that the hours of the different tenants will not overlap. David Conlon responded that there are five on -street parking spaces available at this time. Jim LaRue questioned Donnie Robertson, Public Works Director, whether the on -street parking spaces were currently being used? Donnie Robertson, Public Works Director, responded no, the parking spaces were not currently being used as the property is vacant. John Cook explained that the Technical Review Committee can make a recommendation to the City Council, however, they may require a parking study. David Conlon requested that the proposal be placed in front of the City Council, and allow them to make the determination. Jim LaRue explained that he would feel more comfortable approving the reduction after reviewing the parking study. Oscar Bermudez, City Engineer, noted that he agreed with LaRue. Brian Whitehall, City Administrator, questioned Mr. Conlon whether the Baskin Robins would be closing at 11:00 a.m. as well? SEPTEMBER 28, 2005 - TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE - PAGE 8 OF AGENDA ACTION -DISCUSSION - VOTE IV. New Business, continued. D. Okeeland, LLC, continued. Mr. Conlon responded that Baskin Robins will be open in the afternoon. Herb Smith, Fire Chief, explained that a fire sprinkler system may be required for the entire building. He also requested that Fire Lanes be painted surrounding the building. He explained that the Fire Lanes will be enforced. Mr. Conlon explained that he would meet with Herb once all of the tenants are set and an occupancy load can be determined. Tom Forbes, Building Official, questioned whether Mr. Conlon would have cooking oil recycling tanks? Mr. Conlon responded yes, they will be underground. Brian Whitehall, City Administrator, questioned if there are five on -street spaces, how many additional spaces are available on -site? Mr. Conlon explained that by reducing the three large RV parking spaces, he would gain six spaces. He explained by removing the trees, he would gain four spaces. Brian Whitehall, City Administrator, explained that would be ten spaces, fifteen including the on- 11 David Conlon explained that he would sign an agreement with the City stating that the project could be reevaluated after six months of operation. If there is a parking problem, he will remove the trees and reduce the large RV parking spaces at that time. John Cook, City Attorney, explained that the Technical Review Committee could make a recommendation to the City Council that a reduction of parking may be feasible for this location, however, the Committee is not comfortable recommending approval without first reviewing a parking study.

City Council Board In consideration of the sale, and purchase of real property at the City of Okeechobee Ind. Park. We at Adron Fence are at a loose for words to describe our disappointment in having missed the phasel, and 2 sale of this property. We hope that the poor experience encountered with the y� Purchasers not following through with their said commitments to develop new businesses would not effect our opportunity to grow our family business. Purchasing this property at 45,000. per acre is an excellent deal, but necessary for our growth. Our intent would be to purchase lots 17- 20, or at a minimum lots 17and18. With the title in hand we would use the equity to barrow towards the development of the buildings needed. This is truly a wonderful opportunity for our fixture. Please consider our offer honorable, knowing our 35 years in the community. The following letter presented to the board on Tuesday the 20' applies to the type of business, and the plans for development. The obvious downsize on the property requested is in relation to the amount of money needed for the purchase of the property, the consultation with contractors on the ability of two story structures, and the potential to further develop the surrounding ponds for retention. The three lots would be ideal. Two lots would constrain the initial plans but would be possible. As an added note, walk in business makes up of less then 1% of our gross sales at Adron Fence. C&C is strictly a whole sale business. Thank you for your consideration. Ross Chambers, Adron Fence, President Travis Chambers, C&C Ornamental Gates, President gaxati Adron Fence Co. Inc. C&C Ornamental Gates Inc. 2762 NW 4' Street Okeechobee 34972 (800)282-5172 (863)763-6255 To: City Council Board Members In considerstion of the sale, and purchase of the real property at the City of Okeechobee Industrial park. Adron Fence Fence Co Inc. has been a native of Okeechobee since its inception in 1972. It was established as a family business, and is now supporting a second generation. Adron Fence has 32 employees which 29 are Okeechobee residents. Our on going plan is to provide, and expand in the installation of fence products in the 8 counties that we service. Adron Fence has a gross sales anually of 3.4 million, giving us a consistant foundation for growth. C&C Ornamental Gate Inc. is a second organization that is owned by the same share holders of Adron Fence Co.. This Co. was established in 2003 and has grown expedentaly in this short period of time. The services of this Co. cover 3/4 of the State of Fl., and our goal is to distribute materials nation wide. C & C has already distributed it's products as far away as South Carolina. We started C&C after many years of unbelievably poor service and absolutely no quality in product. This promoted us to manufacture our own products for installation and whole sale came soon after. We have established a primary market for C&C of the 8 counties that Adron Fence is already committed to, which C&C inharited. This has created accounts throughout Florida for these aluminum products. This first stage of marketing which consists of development and production of brochures, and Yellow Page advertising in this 8 county area. This investment has exceeded expectations and motivated us to accelerate the development, and production in this new company. The share holders and officers of our organizations have allocated nearly 1 million dollars to expansion. We believe with our 32 years in the industry, we have a good foundation for our future in the wholesale of ornamental fence products. An expansion into an industry that supports a competitor with a facility larger than 60,000 sf with approximately 70 employees. Our estimate of gross sales for this company is 30+ million a year. The property needed for phase 3, considering structures, roads/parking, retention, etc. will require approx.15 to 20 acres. This facility will need 60,000 sf for manufacturing of gate/fence products (including a powder coat assembly system, phase 2), sales and administration. Supporting structures (warehouse, shipping receiving, storage, vehicle equipment storage) of additional 30,000. The number of employees needed to run phase 3 not including any supporting jobs (admin., shipping, etc.) is estimated between 75-100. This is number is obviously effected by to marrows technology. This development will take approx. 3-5 years, pending on the over all economy of Florida If there is a hesitancy by the board to invest this size property into one organization we would have to obtain lots 17-20 to be able to consider these potential properties for use for this facility. These lots also give us the ability to ship freight by rail (our competitors do not). Thank you for your consideration. If there is some other plan or direction that you see that will make this plan work for the board, please contact either of us and we can discuss your ideas or concerns. Again thank you for your consideration. Ross A. Chambers Travis J. Cambers President Adron Fence Co. Inc. President C&C Ornamental Gates Inc.

I will complete the application and return to your attention. I wanted to ask if any of the parcels shown on the map included with the application have been taken. From looking at the map, it appears that the two western parcels just to the southeast of the water treatment plant and adjacent to the lake might be a good area for a distribution substation. Are these parcels available? The application FPL will be submitting will provide you with detailed information of the proposed substation, but I wanted to let you know that FPL typically looks for a 3.6 acre to 5.0 acre site to build upon. The actual footprint of a substation is approximately one acre, but the additional space is necessary for setback requirements, landscape buffering, and on -site retention, if necessary. Not knowing at this point what the specific parameters would be to construct a substation in the Commerce Center, I at least wanted to give you a heads -up as to the space requirements FPL will need to satisfy. Thank you again for sending the application. FPL will provide you with the information requested and hopes to be able to meet the requirements that the City of Okeechobee is looking for in an applicant.

Our problem is we need more "Co. Your Commeres Csnter would be perfect for us because of its location and accessibility for our customers and deliveries. This has been one of our beat years as far as growth, where we have beer; able to employ 3 more people with the need to employ more. We would like to purchase a one acre lot large enough to build a 75' x 150' building wttich would include a show roots. This show room would help us sell our products, such as custom cabinetry, wall units, Solid Surface counter tops and closet systems. An acre of land would SNe is enough apace for perking for our customers, room enough for delivery trucks anet enough room for Our own entployars vehicles. This would also enable us to employ 5-10 more employees, including another sates person, besides nay husband and myself. with this building and showroom[, we plan to increase our business at least 50%. After the meeting of 9/20/05, we were surprised at the dollar figure that was quoted per acre. Tbase were figures that we leave been quoted in larger cities, wbere We clientele can help balance out the expenses of nm aiag a business there. At these prices, we would be forced to consider "vsng vet of the city of Okeechobee to a larger location., which would mean that 6 or more of our employees would become unemployed in your City. We also noticed that while almost all of your property has been sold, there are not any businesses relocating to that area. Mike and I would like to propose a quote to you of S50,000.00 per acre. This would enable us to build the size shop and show room that would allow growth for us as well as for your industrial Paris, and City.

Attached is a list of those parties receiving same. Gave a deadline of Monday, October Td for return of the executed forms. I will have the responses available to you at the Agenda. td representatives of Adron Fence Co. have asked to be o Tax Increment Finance District still sparks interest from Main Street and would urge the Council to let me know your thoughts. Main Street has offered to assist in feasibility including securing a consultant to render an opinion of initial eligibility. Please examine the literature distributed at a previous meeting and call w me ith questions. On me wits the Land Planning Agency approved adding the Main Street • `Murals and Visual Arts Program Guidelines' amendments to our sign ordinance (LDR), as proposed by Okeechobee Main Street at a previous meeting and has been added to our Agenda. Main Street is requesting (see Agenda) a street closing of SW Park St from SW 2"d Av to SW 8 Av on November 29t'' from 5:00-7:OOPM for the 'Holiday Celebration on Park Street'. This will essentially follow the City's Lighting festivities. Main Street is eager to start a "Green Market" (Farmers Park. Several reother neighboring inOkeechobee, which would be located iFlagle neighboring communities have successful `markets' but it would necessitate allowing businesses to be a part of the activity. You are probably all aware of the Hamrick Trust issue of allowing only non-profit organizations to utilize the park. In this instance, Main Street would orchestrate the event, but wishes to have the latitude to allow businesses to participate, with "stringent" guidelines, prohibiting sales of items not locally produced. Main Street will provide a list of the types of vendors to help in approving the process all of which falls under their mission of city revitalization, growth, and diversification. Pres, Maureen Burroughs will address the City Council and the matter has been added to the Agenda. Page 1 of 4 0 Other Issues by Dept: City Clerk: • Enclosed please find the City Clerk calendar noting holidays etc for the coming two months. Note that tentatively we have scheduled only one City Council Meeting in November and one in December. • Agreement to install monitoring wells by ECS, Tampa, at S441 at SE 3`d St has been added to the Agenda. Finance: • Previously advised each of you that Lola Parker is retiring around November 1st. Have advertised for the position w/ a deadline of 10/13/05. • Lola has updated the FEMA hurricane reimbursement attached spread- sheet to reflect $252,466.26 remaining due. In July that amount due was $339,000... making some headway. • Investments — We have done some research on Money Market Accounts for area banks. Although I have requested it, I still do not have a safekeeping pledge certificate from Harbor Federal. I advocate the City have such an instrument for those institutions wherein we have funds that exceed the FDIC coverage. Fire: • Union: Atty Cook, Chief Smith and I met with Union - IAFF (Int'I Assoc of Fire Fighters) 9th District VP Jim Tolley, local VP Glen Hodges on Sept 23`d- Was presented with a 14 pg draft of issues, most of which is simply reducing current procedure to writing. Have assigned the Chief the job of differentiating what is being requested with what is now in place and will report back to you accordingly. • Fire Dept Chief Smith has had a busy couple of weeks responded to over 30 calls. Set up Fire Prevention Week with schools, firemen attended tactics and strategy class at IRCC, had a live fire training exercise, conducted several fire inspections, conducted OSHA required lung capacity tests, set up annual physicals and had some equipment concerns. Chief Smith and Fred Sterling will be attending a Code Level II class the week of Oct 10th in Tallahassee. • As Code Enforcement Officer Chief Smith has secured some samples of other town's animal control issues. We will be trying to review those to find applicability to Okeechobee. General Services: • Brentwood Estates, SW le St., sanitary sewer system is not installed; instead the developer has allowed septic tank applications to proceed. You have received copies of correspondence. The developer has opted to attempt to seek approval now (replatting) from the Tech Review Committee (Sept 2e meeting) and inevitably the City Council. Enclosed please find the excerpt of minutes from the Sept 29th meeting wherein the TRC approved the plat with some contingencies. Page 2 of 4 Newman Zoning — Rezoning of this property to CBD — Commercial Business District. Ordinance 915 on Agenda to facilitate rezoning due to tabling the matter last meeting. Form letter received from owner of Lot 1 (Susanne Hoover) and not received from Lot 2 (Mr & Mrs Mike Brown) confirming their approval. Another TRC agenda item is the David Conlon development Okeeland LLC, 501 NE Park St, requesting reducing parking from 84 spaces to 74. Again the TRC minutes are enclosed and the consensus was to require Mr. Conlon to prepare a parking study prior to approval... Agenda item. Building Official/Inspector. Qualifications submittal deadline was Sept 29tn and I have enclosed three proposals from the following Building Official Services: Independent Inspectors, W241 S4135 Pine Hollow Ct, Waukesha WI 53189 Big Lake Inspectors, 406 Dartmouth Or, Haines City FL 33844 Capri Engineering, 6220 S Orange Blossom Trail St197, Orlando FL 32809 Katrina is investigating references and I will be reviewing the proposals for compatibility, fee structure, resumes, qualifications in order to make a decision on Tuesday. • Reported that / received a ro osal from Jim LaRue for increased fees associated with increased workload. Then 1 received additional bad news in as much as Mr. LaRue has submitted a letter advising that the firm will no longer provide `Staff reports' for the Tech Review Board, nor attend the meeting. A brief history of the firm's fees reflects a 199 Agreement-$2125 (25 hrs/mo), '03-$3500 (not to exceed), and now, $3500+ billed for excess above 40hrs a month. The proposal calls for an effective date of October 1st. I believe Mr. LaRue is doing a fine job and we have no staff problems related to performance. Engineer Bermudez and / have met with one possible alternate and that may work out. My plan is to incorporate the new building official into the TRC process and go from there, addressing Mr. LaRue's increased fee structure. Mr. LaRue has agreed to go month to month until such time that a new Building Official can be put in place. Legal: Have been advised that an updated contract for legal services from Attorney Cook is coming. Our records indicate that the last executed contract was 1990. • Rauierson Case: Attorneys Cook and Bryant are meeting with two hearing officers for the selection process of a third to proceed with termination hearing. On a related matter, Clerk Gamiotea has compiled samples from six communities of disciplinary action and appeals, as instructed. Chief has crunched' those into a sample, still addressing FL s/s 112 that may be used for the City after scrutiny by Atty Cook. • Marvin Brantley continues with clean up at his location on S 441. Atty Cook caused the following documents to be filed with the court, Notice of Hearing, Motion for Contempt/Enforcementllssuance of Writ, Writ of Bodily Attachment, and Affidavit. An email was sent to you l15�'that on Sept 29h Further, as explained, Judge has given Mr. Brantley untilNovember am waiting on responses from 7 quote requests from contractors to clean up the debris. Page 3 of 4 9 Public Works: • Alley Closing Policy was discussed at the last meeting, which was left over from discussion on 8/2/05. While the matter has been placed on the Agenda, I would appreciate your input to assist in developing a more precise policy that the Engineer can live with. • Street Overlay Proiect — Should be in a position to bid in about one week. Engineering done and Gen Sery Coord Katrina is finishing up bid preparation. • Baffle Box that was to be installed on SE 4m St at the boat launch apparently is back on the `docket'. We received a letter from DEP advising that the 05-06 General Appropriations Act provides funding for Okeechobee for a surface water projects up to $100,000. We have met with Dale Militia, CAS, and staff and are making application for that funding to be applied to the sediment trap (baffle box) project. No additional information at this time. • Baffle Boxes funded by SFWMD includes two locations that will be started in the next month or so. I have attached a copy of the map locations, both in the NE part of town, and typical profile of the box. The boxes have been moved in to the locations and one was to be installed last Thursday but the Wednesday night rain has delayed it. Police: Union — there is an apparent obvious interest in the formation of a union as the City has received communications from the Florida Police Benevolent Assoc through the Florida Public Employees Relations Commission. I was originally given the impression that several policemen were already non -dues paying members and the matter was simply reassigning the union location to Tallahassee. I have found that months ago there was a vote to `meet' with a union representative. Now on October 13th there is a hearing set to establish the City's response to a proposed union. Atty Cook indicated that the Fire union started in much the same way. Sometime after the hearing the Police Dept employees will be given the opportunity to join by vote if exceeding 51 % in favor. Included in the 917105 Council Mtg packets was information on train whistle nuisance alternative. The vendor has contacted me and indicated his schedule is full for the next month or so, will be contacting me thereafter. Met with County Board Ch. John Abney and Admin George Long about the County's endeavor to build a new Emergency Management office that will house the County's emergency radio dispatching. They have given this matter much study and have invited the City to participate if there's an interest. I haven't identified what economies' we could realize and I have spoken to Chief Davis and naturally there's a territorial attitude (that might be a little harsh). There was further discussion about the County's effort to better the radio service and I told them that the cost was prohibitive without grant contribution or piecemeal approach.
