MAYOR KIRK CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:25 P.M. Mrs. Zella Kirk thanked the Council for allowing her to address them again regarding stormwater drainage, she also thanked the Council and Staff for working on the matter. A petition, that expressed the outcry of the community to take care of and address the flooding issues, with approximately 250 signatures from surrounding owners within the Southwest section of the City and County was presented to the City Clerk for the official records. Mrs. Kirk explained that they could have had more signatures. However, due to work schedules it was hard to find people at home. No one refused to sign the petition, and everyone had an opinion how to solve the problems. They discovered more homes that had experienced flooding than initially estimated, specifically along Southwest 7`h Avenue. What was most requested was some type of continual year round maintenance plan, rather than once a year. Mrs. Phyllis Koff, who accompanied Mrs. Kirk noted that another discovery was that there are ditches that have no place to drain, they dead- end. The Council noted specific progress that had been made on the stormwater drainage matter and the directions they are investigating to take. One is to re-route the water into an existing pond located on the Bryant property. Another is to have a Hydrologist evaluate the City's drainage system as well. These items will be presented to the Council for further action, as needed. Mrs. Kirk and Mrs. Koff again thanked the Council for their progress, and stated their hope that most of the problems could be at least temporarily solved by the 2006 Hurricane Season. A.

(2) The use as an office is specifically authorized under the CPO Zoning District. (3) The proposed zoning and use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. (4) The use as an office, or other CPO uses, is appropriate for this location. This zoning is compatible with adjacent land uses.

(5) The proposed zoning and use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions. (6) The proposed use can be buffered form surrounding uses if necessary. (7) The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities. No density is involved.

Could have had more signatures, but with work schedules hard to find people at home, no one refused to sign the petition, everyone had opinions how to solve the problems, discovered more homes that had experienced flooding, 71h Avenue, most appointed out some type of plan, continual year round focus to going on one area to another to make sure everything working properly instead of one type of the year. Phyllis Koff, discovered that ther eare ditches that have no place to drain, they deadend. Petition expresses the outcry of community to take care and address these flooding issues. Markham, recently discussed with donnie, bryant property was recently purchased, have permission from Bryant but need it from new owner as well. Move water from 71h to rim canal, work through neighborhoods to get water to holding pond then on to ditch. Tape 1 side B, 6:33 p.m. Watford, are also working with the county on the drainage.

Important information when they found more houses that were flooded, make sure they know about the sand bagging program. Mechanics of how we are going to do it will be worked out. Watford, rezonings in that area, make sure new developments don't impact the area further. Brian, our general policy is that they ahve to hold at least 1 inch, some thing to work through, contengencies on them. Watford, in the code book you cannot put impacts of development, can we find out what that mechanisms are, is that enough teeth? Do we need something more? We need to make sure we don't make it worse. Kirk, need to make sure not just SW section but entire city, addressed and comfortable that it is manageable, even when released. Watford need to make sure we have the policy legal grounds to say if you are going to build so many houses you have to provide so much retention. Cook think what we have is good enough, oscar works on that. Watford you're comfortable with the teeth? Yes. Kirk, do we need possible to have a person with expertise to look at our ditches and let us know yes we need to fix them or no they are okay. Capacity issue I understand, but if there is nothing wrong between point A and where the water is suppose to go. We guessed about 2 more storm seasons before we'll have all the studies and how to fix it. Thank them, SFWMD, for work they have done. Should we have one of those type people • • Page -6- come in the city. Brian, appreciate SFWMD work to survey culverts, 70 some locations, found some different heights that need to be corrected.

Rezoning Petition No. 06-003-R: Consider a recommendation to the City Council to rezone Lots 4 through 6 of Block 251, First Addition to Okeechobee, from Residential Single Family -One (RSF-1) to Residential Multiple Family (RMF). The subject property is located at 702 and 704 Southwest 7' Avenue. Malissa Morgan is the applicant on behalf of property owners A Child's World • Childcare and Preschool, Inc. • B. Rezoning Petition No. 06-006-R: Consider a recommendation to the City Council to rezone Lots 4 through 6 of Block 117, Okeechobee, from Residential Single Family -One (RSF-1) to Light Commercial (CLT). The subject property is located at 309 Northeast 6' Avenue. Mark W. Brandel is the applicant on behalf of property owners B & R Enterprises of Okeechobee, LLC. March 28, 2006 - Planning Board - Pa2e 2 of 9 Mr. Jim LaRue, Planning Consultant, requested this item be tabled on behalf of the applicant, as the project engineer, Mr. Jeff Sumner, is currently working with Mr. LaRue and his staff on the matter. Therefore this item will be presented at the April 25, 2006 meeting. A memorandum was distributed to the Agency Members from Mr. Jeff Sumner of this request.

Mr. LaRue briefly reviewed the Staff Report as follows: Planning Staff Report Request: The applicant is requesting that the zoning for the subject property be changed from RSF-1 to CLT to allow the property to be used as an office building. Planning Staff Report Summary: The subject property contains a residential structure. Additionally, the applicant is requesting to amend the Future Land Use Map from Single -Family to Commercial to allow an office. The surrounding block of the subject parcel is a single-family neighborhood and a commercial office would be out of place. There is adequate commercial nearby and it is not necessary to further encroach in another residential area. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (1) After examining the Future Land Use Element, the subject property would seem more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan policies by remaining in the Single -Family Future Land Use category. The intent of the Future Land Use IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. B. Rezoning Petition No. 06-006-R continued. March 28, 2006 - Planning Board - Paae 3 of 9 Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis (1) continued: Element and Future Land Use Map is to manage future growth. In implementing the Plan, the City has to ensure that its land development regulations protect the use and value of private property from adverse impacts of incompatible land uses, activities and hazards. In addition, Objective 12 states that the City of Okeechobee shall encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses in consisten with the character and land uses of surrounding areas, and shall discourage urban sprawl. The subject property is within the Single -Family Future Land Use category and the RSF-1 Zoning District and is already developed with a single-family residence. The surrounding properties are also consistent and allowing this use would be contrary to the Comprehensive Plan policies. (2) Section 90-252(1) permits professional office, business office, and medical offices in the CLT Zoning District. (3) It has not been demonstrated that the proposed use would avoid an adverse effect on the public interest especially increased traffic generation in a residential neighborhood. (4) The use is not appropriate for this location. Furthermore, any future commercial use in this area could have a detrimental impact on the neighboring residential homes by allowing commercial traffic generation and other impacts related to operating a commercial venture. Such impacts may be incompatible with and difficult to buffer from adjacent uses. (5) Permitted uses such as those allowed in the CLT Zoning district could affect or have the appearance of affecting property values in the residential neighborhood. (6) If granted, the use may be required to be buffered from the residential neighborhood. (7) The proposed use and CLT Zoning will not overburden public facilities such as schools and utilities services. Traffic, however, would be increased. (8) The subject property will increase traffic as a result of future commercial use. If approved, site plan will be required to show drainage on the site. (9) The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. (10) The proposed change could be interpreted as a special favor to an individual owner. Planning Staff Report Summary and Conclusions Prior to Certification: The proposed zoning and use appears to be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The change from the single family to commercial would create an incompatible use with the surrounding neighborhood. As stated earlier, the existing Future Land Use category, the existing Zoning and the existing use are all compatible with each other and the surrounding area. March 28.2006 - Planning Board - Page 4 of 9 IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. B. Rezoning Petition No. 06-006-R continued. The City must encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses that are III inconsistent with the character and land uses of surrounding areas as well as discourage urban sprawl. Planning Staff Report Recommendation: Staff does not recommend for approval of the request to allow rezoning from RSF-1 to CLT permitting the applicant to operate an office at this location. The Board recommended the rezoning be considered as CPO, since the requirements are more restrictive and would be more suitable in a RSF-1 Zoning district. Mr. Brandel, one of the owners of B & R Enterprises of Okeechobee, LLC, remarked that he had a concern with the use of his F350 truck not being permitted in this CPO zoning category. Other than that, he would be in agreeance with this recommendation. Mr. Dowling R. Watford, Jr, residing at 701 Southeast 5" Street, remarked that he appreciated the recommendation from the Board as CPO. He had no objection to the rezoning being considered for CPO but would be objective to any other commercial zoning. Mr. Watford suggested to the Board to recommend to the City Council that an amendment be considered to state specifically • what kind of truck can be used with the CPO zoning. There was no further discussion from the Board. Board Member Maxwell moved to recommend to City Council to approve Rezoning Petition No. 06-006-R, Lots 5 and 6 of Block 205, First Addition to Okeechobee, changing the zoning from Residential Single Family -One (RSF-1) to Commercial Professional Office (CPO) stating the limitation of the vehicle weight be amended; seconded by Board Member Johns. IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. B. Rezoning Petition No. 06-006-R continued. C. Rezoning Petition No. 06-007-R: Consider a recommendation to the City Council to rezone the South one-half of Lot 5 and all of Lot 6 of Block 8, South Okeechobee, from Residential Single Family -One (RSF-1) to Commercial Professional Office (CPO). The subject property is located at 1008 Southwest 2"d Avenue. James E. Fraser, III is the property owner. March VOTE HOOVER - YEA FELLER - YEA LEDFERD - YEA MAXWELL - YEA MCCOY - YEA WHIDDEN - YEA JOHNS - YEA MOTION CARRIED. Mr. LaRue briefly reviewed the Staff Report as follows: 2006- Planning Board - Pa2e 5 of 9 Planning Staff Report Request: The applicant is requesting that the zoning for the subject property be changed from Residential Single Family -One to Commercial Professional Office to allow the property to be established as an office building. There is also a request by the applicant to change the Future Land Use from Single Family Residential to Commercial. Planning Staff Report Summary: The subject property is currently zoned RSF-1 and a Future Land Use category change to Commercial is pending for this property. The applicant is requesting a rezoning from RSF-1 to CPO. The applicant is proposing to use the property as an office building. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (1) The proposed zoning is not contrary to Comprehensive Plan requirements. (2) The use as an office is specifically authorized under the CPO Zoning District. (3) The proposed zoning and use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. (4) The use as an office, or other CPO uses, is appropriate for this location. This zoning is compatible with adjacent land uses. The proposed use is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns on this block and should not, if approved, lead to future encroachments into stabilized residential neighborhoods. (5) The proposed zoning and use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions. (6) The proposed use can be buffered form surrounding uses if necessary. (7) The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities. No density is involved. (8) At the site plan review stage, the impact on traffic, flooding or drainage problems will be discussed. At this time, however, it does not appear that the proposed CPO zoning will negatively impact public facilities. • • 1375 Jackso treet, Suite 206 Fort Myers, INWida 33901-2845 Phone: 239-334-3366 Fax: 239-334-6384 Email: larue-planning @ att.net Staff Report Rezoning Request k�.

Rezoning Request Petition No. 06-006-R The subject property contains a residential structure. Additionally, the applicant is requesting to amend the Future Land Use Map from Single -Family to Commercial to allow an office. The surrounding block of the subject parcel is a single-family neighborhood and a commercial office would be out of place. There is adequate commercial nearby and it is not necessary to further encroach in another residential area. 1. The proposed use is not contrary to Comprehensive Plan requirements. After examining the Future Land Use Element, the subject property would seem more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan policies by remaining in the Single - Family Future Land Use category. The intent of the Future Land Use Element and Future Land Use Map is to manage future growth. In implementing the Plan, the City has to ensure that its land development regulations protect the use and value of private property from adverse impacts of incompatible land uses, activities and hazards. (See Policy 2.2) In addition, Objective 12 states that the City of Okeechobee shall encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses in consistent with the character and land uses of surrounding areas, and shall discourage urban sprawl. The subject property is within the Single -Family Future Land Use category and the RSF-1 Zoning District and is already developed with a single-family residence. The surrounding properties are also consistent and allowing this use would be contrary to the Comprehensive Plan policies. 2. The proposed use being applied for is specifically authorized under the zoning district in the Land Development Regulations. Section 90-252(1) permits professional office, business office, and medical offices in the CLT Zoning District. 3. The proposed use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. It has not been demonstrated that the proposed use would avoid an adverse effect on the public interest especially increased traffic generation in a residential neighborhood. 2 Staff Report Applicant: B & R Enterprises of Okeechobee, LLC. Rezoning Request Petition No. 06-006-R 4. The use is appropriate for the location proposed, is reasonably compatible with adjacent land uses, and is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns. The use is not appropriate for this location. Furthermore, any future commercial use in this area could have a detrimental impact on the neighboring residential homes by allowing commercial traffic generation and other impacts related to operating a commercial venture. Such impacts may be incompatible with and difficult to buffer from adjacent uses. 5. The proposed use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, or be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property. Permitted uses such as those allowed in the CLT Zoning district could affect or have the appearance of affecting property values in the residential neighborhood. 6. The proposed use can be suitably buffered from surrounding uses, so as to reduce the impact of any nuisance or hazard to the neighborhood If granted, the use may be required to be buffered from the residential neighborhood. 7. The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services. The proposed use and CLT Zoning will not overburden public facilities such as schools and utilities services. Traffic, however, would be increased. 8. The proposed use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or otherwise affect public safety. The subject property will increase traffic as a result of future commercial use. If approved, a site plan will be required to show drainage on the site. 9. The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. No, the proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. 10. The proposed change will not constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare. The proposed change could be interpreted as a special favor to an individual owner. 3 Staff Report Rezoning Request • Applicant: B & R Enterprises of Okeechobee, LLC. Petition No. 06-006-R The proposed zoning and use appears to be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The change from the single-family to commercial would create an incompatible use with the surrounding neighborhood.

The City must encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses that are inconsistent with the character and land uses of surrounding areas as well as discourage urban sprawl.

The subject property is located at 1008 Southwest 2nd Avenue. James E. Fraser, IIl is the property owner. E VOTE HOOVER - YEA KELLER - YEA LEDFERD - YEA MAXWELL - YEA MCCOY - YEA WHIDDEN - YEA JOHNS - YEA MOTION CARRIED. Mr. LaRue briefly reviewed the Staff Report as follows: Planning Staff Report Request: The applicant is requesting that the zoning for the subject property be changed from Residential Single Family -One to Commercial Professional Office to allow the property to be established as an office building. There is also a request by the applicant to change the Future Land Use from Single Family Residential to Commercial. Planning Staff Report Summary: The subject property is currently zoned RSF-1 and a Future Land Use category change to Commercial is pending for this property. The applicant is requesting a rezoning from RSF-1 to CPO. The applicant is proposing to use the property as an office building. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (1) The proposed zoning is not contrary to Comprehensive Plan requirements. (2) The use as an office is specifically authorized under the CPO Zoning District. (3) The proposed zoning and use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. (4) The use as an office, or other CPO uses, is appropriate for this location. This zoning is compatible with adjacent land uses. The proposed use is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns on this block and should not, if approved, lead to future encroachments into stabilized residential neighborhoods. (5) The proposed zoning and use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions. (6) The proposed use can be buffered form surrounding uses if necessary. (7) The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities. No density is involved. (8) At the site plan review stage, the impact on traffic, flooding or drainage problems will be discussed. At this time, however, it does not appear that the proposed CPO zoning will negatively impact public facilities. IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. C. Rezoning Petition No. 06-007-R continued. March 28, 2006- Planning Board - Page 6 of 9 Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis continued: (9) The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. (10) The proposed use will not constitute a grant of special privileges to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare. Planning Staff Report Summary and Conclusions Prior to Certification: The proposed zoning would be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan if the Small Scale Amendment is approved as Commercial. Planning Staff Report Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the request to allow rezoning from RSF-1 to CPO permitting the applicant to use the property as an office. There were no pubic comments, nor any discussion from the Board. Board Member McCoy moved to recommend to City Council to approve Rezoning Petition No. 06-007-R, to rezone the South one-half of Lot 5 and all of Lot 6 of Block 8, South Okeechobee, from Residential Single Family -One (RSF-1) to Commercial Professional Office (CPO); seconded by Board Member Whidden.

As stated earlier in this report, the applicant is requesting a rezoning to CHV. This will allow the applicant to operate an office at the property. The surrounding area contains a mixture of single-family and commercial uses. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (1) The proposed zoning is not contrary to the general Comprehensive Plan requirements for Commercial. However, if the current applicant is requesting a zoning change to be most compatible with this specific neighborhood, CHV is not appropriate whereas CPO would be most suitable. (2) The proposed use being applied for is authorized under the Zoning District in the Land Development Code. (3) An office use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest in the neighborhood but other uses in the CHV Zoning District might. A CPO Zoning District would be more compatible than CHV zoning. (4) The CHV zoning as requested is not as appropriate as CPO for the location proposed. CPO zoning would be more compatible with adjacent land uses. Office use is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns and would be accommodated in the CPO District. (5) The proposed zoning, if CPO, will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, nor will it be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent properties. Some uses, however, within the CHV Zoning District would adversely affect adjacent properties. (6) The office use can be suitably buffered from surrounding uses if necessary. (7) The proposed zoning or substitute wil not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services. (8) The proposed use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or otherwise affect public safety. (9) The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. (10) The proposed zoning change, if it becomes CPO, will not be granting a special privilege to the owner.

If mores ace is needed please attach an additional page. I graduated from the University of Florida in May of 2002 with a Bachelor's degree in Environmental Engineering with a concentration of potable water treatment. In May of the same year, I began working with the City of Port St. Lucie Utility Systems Department as a project engineer. While employed with the City, I was responsible for the project management of what is now the Glades Wastewater Treatment Facility. This task involved the master planning of all wastewater infrastructures for the utility service area including existing and future systems. Upon conclusion of the master plan, the findings were presented to City Council for their approval. The same report presented to City Council was used by the City Manager to present to various bonding agencies. The funds were obtained in January of 2004 and design of the .facility began thereafter. Currently the facility is in construction with a completion date in mid-2006. I was also tasked with the project management of several commercial developments including but not limited to the following: Tradition, Southern Groves, GL Homes, Ansca Homes, Kennedy Parcel (Minto Homes), Western Groves, Portofino (aka Newport Isles), Gatlin Boulevard Commons, and Sawgrass Lakes. The project management of commercial development involved the negotiation of annexation agreements, utility service agreements, DRI and PUD documents. It also involved the review and approval of construction plans and hydraulic water/wastewater models. As of January 24 of this year, I am employed by Engineering Design and Construction, Inc. of Ft. Pierce; a consulting engineering firm with a specialization in land development. My tasks at EDC, Inc include preparation of Land Use/Zoning Change documents for review by the St. Lucie County Commission, and civil engineering design for commercial and residential developments. z1-7 App7ic s rgnature ate • N City of Okeechobee Office of the City Clerk & Personnel Administrator Application for Citizen Board The City of Okeechobee does not engage in any form of unlawful discrimination.

Goodbread to close the East to West alleyway located in Block 18, between Lots 1 to 10 and 17 to 26. The North to South alleyway will remain open. The Goodbread's/Gagbee, Inc. own Lots 1-10, 20-26, Donald and Mary Ilgen own Lots 17-19 and have signed consent to the closing. Gagbee, Inc. has submitted plans to the Technical Review Committee to develop their property for a multi -family apartment complex, "Utah Apartments." The purpose of closing the alley is to utilize the entire area for the development, they own lots on both sides of the alley. The utility companies do not require any type of easement. We will be providing the City Department page at the meeting. We were unable to obtain the Administrator's signature due to his family emergency. Engineer Bermudez was delayed from his trip due to airline problems. The deadline to submit agenda items was changed, due to the holiday (Good Friday). I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause in submitting the last page to you late. The decision before the Council would be to either deny the application; or instruct the City Attorney to draft the appropriate ordinance closing the alleyway and present it for first reading at the May 2, 2006 meeting.

The two follow-up phone conversations have excited us in that there is an expressed interest in our proposal. Our Mission is simple. Respond rapidly, meeting the needs of disaster victims putting their lives back in some kind of normal order. Response time is critical after any natural disaster. Having a Direct Services Coordinator • as my self and qualified Case Managers on board full time to respond immediately, rather than the County, City, or a Committee Board having to search once again to fill these positions plus training time, approximately two months has lapsed in meeting the needs of victims. Once you begin the paper trail to qualify victims, it can take up to another month. All this down time could be resolved by the County Commissioners and City Council approving our present short term positions to full time. My recommendation is simple: Submit a budget to both County Commissioners, and City Council Members, requesting they share the operational funding for R.O.A.D based on population percentage. Reason, the City base population is 5,700 vs. County approximately 37,000. Repair and rebuild funding would still be obtained through grant applications from various funding agencies. Grants awarded that have a percentage of direct services attached to administer the repair/rebuild funding would be filtered back to City/County helping to replenish some of their funding used to maintain our full time status. This would reduce their cost each year. How much? That would depend on the amount of the grants and the percentage attached for administering the funds. My recommendation also requests that all disaster agencies such as R.O.A.D. are housed under, one roof "the future Okeechobee County Emergency Management Building" for one stop disaster shopping. This would eliminate the cost of high rent and the savings could be passed on to assisting victims. One of my first tasks was to lesson the stress of • 0 11 • Pg. 2 victims from being sent from one side of the county to another trying to seek assistance. Presently, Okeechobee Non -Profit Housing, Habitate, Salvation Army, Project Hope, and Project Recovery are all together. R.O.A.D. has become the mother -ship formulating a County wide Masters Needs List, which all agencies have access. Commissioners/City Council Members you will find attached for your review our mission statement, budget requirements and strategies. Also attached is an outline of direct services funding remaining to administer repair/rebuild funding. As I stated to the Governor, we can have all the repair/rebuild funding available, but if we do not have the necessary funding to administer, our doors will close and victims will suffer the consequences. My first hope is that the County and City Governments will consider/accept my recommendations. We have what I believe are the two best governments in the state. They truly care for our people. Adding three new positions would require an increase in budget and that is why I requested they fund by population percentage. I believe it is in the best interest to our victims past, present and future we are approved permanent. • God Bless 11 Vensel, Director R.O.A.D. cc: Governor Bush Rex Newman, Governor's Assistance Citizen Council R.O.A.D. Executive Board 0 Pg. 3 0 Budget Requirements The following budget is based on one year: Director/Construction Coordinator $50.000 Case Manager Supervisor 31,000 Case Manager, Bi-lingual 25,000 Mileage 9,100 FP&L 1,200 Phones 1,100 Rent 12,000 Supplies 900 Internet 60 $130,360 Rent, FP&L, phones, could be reduced from our budget under one roof of the new Emergency Management Building and used to apply assisting victims. Again, direct services cost awarded would be passed on to County/City. .

Sorry I missed the City Council meeting. Yesterday, I came back to work around lunch time and developed a headache as the day went on. I thought, maybe I was just developing an allergy to this place. I got home and Diana asked if I had had any coffee and I told her that my stomach was already rolling, but took her advise and guzzled down a cup. Within a half an hour my headache was gone. I wish all headaches were that easy to resolve! You had a question at the Meeting relating to delinquent taxes and garbage fees. India had a list of tax issues to address w/ the County and she picked up the following: Below is a listing of delinquent property taxes for 2004 (should have been paid last year) but were not paid by the owner: Residential 25 (these are the only properties that have garbage fees) Residential Vacant: 12 Commercial: 7 Commercial Vacant: 5 When the Tax Certificates are sold at auction, we were paid the taxes and the garbage fees at that time. I believe the auction is held the end of May, I am checking on the date and will confirm. As you probably know tax bills are distributed in November with a due date of April 1 st. Thereafter the taxes are 'sold' to interested parties on May 31 st. By the end of June the County has reconciled all the proceeds from the tax sale and the City receives the appropriate reimbursement. So, in conclusion, the City really does not realize a loss on delinquent property taxes. If you have additional questions, please contact me.
