Motion by Council Member mc ,:�econded by Council Member nc to read by title only VOTE: Watford , Chandler , Cl;ark , Jarriel , Keefe Motion Carried/Failed. J. Smith Handwritten Minutes, 8-3-2021 reg mtg, Page 2 of 9 Motion by council member nc, second by mc to adopt and set Sep 7 as final public hearing BS-property is an alley 20 ft wide, running through blk 110. Applicants requesting be vacated, 6000 square feet. Century link also requested applicant would pay for any damages in the area from relocation. Steve Dobbs 209 ne 2"d st- for the applicant. 3 of these items are kind of tied together. If we have to go through each individually that's fine I would request the abandonment be continued until after the rezoning is handled because if those don't go through there is no point in doing the abandonment. MW-I would prefer if we could postpone past item F. We could move f to item b and discuss it next. BK-motion to table second by MC to table A and B until after item F. Motion carried unanimously SD-when we initially applied these were owned by different people they are owned by the same people now MW-adjust agenda and move on to item F. We had some discussion under public comment on rezonings that were denied by city so the applicant has had discussion with staff on going forward. Who is going to take lead>? GR-I think what led us to this point was I was speaking to BK and concerns because applicant has been up a couple times and concern is cost to applicant because PB and CC were at different ends of spectrum on this. Applicant would like to come back and see if a different use could fit those properties. Before we have them go to next step we wanted a discussion on this. MW-couple of things we can do here. Applicant woutd need to pay any fees. Attorney indicated there is discrepancy with FLU and zoning. Steve? SD-client is kind of reeting right now was planning on moving to design phase. If we cant get heavy commercial on these two parcels client does not want to move forward with the abandonment. My client is questioning the north parcel hasn't come twice the south has come twice. Client couldn't get permit to build dog house on south parcel there is nothing he can do with that parcel. Can't make money with the approved uses there MW-there is a dentist office making money there right now SD-my client cant make money with it. Heavy commercial ive talked to all of you about this some are concerned about heavy commercial not sure which they are concerned about. Client is looking at different options. Did not want to wait several months down the road with it going back to PB and Council. Did not hear any issues with this from staff or anything. MW-this council has a huge responsibility and you know how the process works. The PB is only a recommendation to the CC. The CC has the final say on these. Council does not always follow that recommendation. I don't know that its our responsibility to call and say I'm going to vote against this. If you want to call me I would tell what I thought but I would also tell you I cannot tell you how I am going to vote because I have a responsibility to listen to those. I never tell anyone how I am going to vote. I object to the thing that people don't want to come to Okeechobee. Our previous administrator would bend over backwards to make sure something got in. SD-mi not trying to offend anyone MW-well you did SD-these are facts. I've spoken to people from out of town and this is what they say. I I want to live here and I want it to get better. Phil Berger(?) - Dowling you want to know what you're know as? (???) Okeechobee has a negative impression from a lot of people from that kind of decision. Were just asking what it takes to get an investor to spend that kind of money. Russell Stephens- investing in Okeechobee. We came here with intention of investing in the city. This project is around 6.5 million but we intend to invest more. Light commercial just doesn't work for us and if that was the case we would abandon the project. And also abandon future plans we have here. We would like to work with you on this and consider this a reasonable application. We thought residential was a real need here. Failing that we hope you consider heavy commercial for this property. NC-Discussion with Steve, they wanted to move to Heavy commercial. I'm not against heavy commercial but then he went with the rest of those reasons. I am all for heavy commercial but I am offended by both of you. MW-as I said before we have options if we choose the applicant has submitted a rezoning application J. Smith Handwritten Minutes, 8-3-2021 reg mtg, Page 3 of 9 BK-with that application submitted and fee paid, ill just say it did kind of bother me that the applicant did come before us spending that money and the discrepancies between the FLU and Zoning map which have been an issue for years. When we turned away Penrod last year my opinion was if it was multi family it would be different situation. They come back and spend the money and get denied again. I would like to see us show some grace and show we do want growth and improvements in this town. I would not mind doing this administratively or do app without fees because we've already collected monies. I've got the zoning permitted uses before I don't see any that I would object to. JF- tonight we can say staff can move forward with this process MC-can we administratively change the zoning map? BS-if you mean city initiated we would take direction on this with the city as the applicant Patty Burnette-Land use is not needed only a rezoning. BK-would be a city initiated zoning if we wanted to do that MW-do we want to instruct staff to come back with city initiated zone change? BK-motion to instruct staff to prepare city initiated zoning change on 110 and 121 to heavy commercial. MW-going to slow it down because we have to vote on the next meeting JF-nothing prohibits you from refunding a fee Vote on motion, motion carried. BK, second MC to take A and B off the table Motion to postpone final public hearing date until rezoning complete. BK, MC Motion carried VII. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED B. Motion to read by title only and set September 7, 2021 as the final public hearing date for proposed Ordinance No. 1232, Right-of-Way Abandonment Petition No. 21-002-AC submitted by Shaun and Desiree Penrod, to close the east to west alley in Block 121, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Plat Book 5, Page 5 Okeechobee County public records (Exhibit 3).

Motion to approve a proposal with Craig A. Smith & Associates to provide professional engineering services for a modification to the South Florida Water Management District Permit for Okeechobee Commerce Center (Exhibit 4) NC, second by BK GR-This has been kicked down the road about 12 yrs now. Would benefit us to get this permitted and get the process going. Thought it would be good to use same services with Craig A Smith. Looking at items to be constructed, existing infrastructure get survey in and conceptual construction plan. Jim Orth from Craig A Smith is here tonight to share with you what we have come up with to get this completed. Believe we can get this part down by end of Sep. Jim Orth Craig A Smith and associates- We were the original engineers. There was a shortage of money to finish and now as people have bought lots they are doing partials. Be happy to look at what you got in there. Couldn't do a proposal for a permit because of some changes and modifications. Want to get a summary of where we are today. Goal is to finish the surface water mgmt. system so future owners will be ready to go. MW-this wont get us to a point of applying? JO-no it will not. MW-will tell us what we need to get there JO-yes J.

VII. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED E. Presentation of the scope and design of Cattlemen's Square in Flagler Park by Calvin, Giordano & Associates (Exhibit 6). Gianno Feoli- Want to go over what we have been talking about with the FPDRAC. We are a multidisciplinary firm with a lot of experience including park. Our scope includes creating a master plan for the 6 parks as well as doing a construction detail plan for cattlemen's park. We are also looking at the street as it is a vital part of the park area. What is there now is a lot of empty space. Our objectives were to do something authentic and spoke to the culture of Okeechobee. In terms of park I think we have created an exemplary landmark condition with threshold opportunities and synergy with park system and park road. That includes the sculptures for the cattlemen's sculpture project. Worked really hard with committee to make something authentic. Looking to stick to native plants so no long term maintenance. Furnishings that are flexible for the area. Looking at interactive kiosk which is a bit of a challenge because of the advertising restrictions in the park. Pavers will have ample space in entrance. Numbers are a little steep again these are schematic numbers we are pricing in the volatility in the market right now. Beefier numbers are electrical and planting. We have some wiggle room as we get into design and development where we could save some money. In terms of comparison on per acre basis compared to other municipalities the cost of acre is around 450,000 an acre. We can always downgrade parts or phase the project but I thought these numbers would compare to other municipalities. MW-I am extremely disappointed I think you missed the point entirely. I thought you understood this design detail. I think this is too much. BK-I think its beautiful I love the design. However yes sitting in this seat I know our budget constraints I'll admit I haven't been to any of the committee meetings. Is this a culmination of what you and the committees have been working on? G F-yes BK-I feel that obviously we need to go back to what our expectations were in the use of the committee and were we supposed to have periodic updates? Maybe I need to start going to the meetings as well? Obviously these were ideas approved by the committee. GF-we've had 3 meetings with the committee where we've presented the designs in their entirety. Budget was first discussed at the last meeting in FPDRAC defense. We don't want to design something you cannot build. MW-when we approved this with OKMS they had a conceptual plan with what it was going to look like, did you see that? GF-the previous administrator had us combine that. My understanding is that the arts and cultural alliance has spoken with donors. MC-I'm kind of in between the other two. I think this is over the top, the Taj Mahal of how this could look. I was under the impression that at the last meeting where we approved the 98,000 we were going to have the money to install the sculptures. Where to find the money is an issue, we don't have this in the budget. May have to have the community raise more money. Not sure where the disconnect is this park is in the city limits but hamrick trust is also involved. Community would need to be involved and I just don't see us spending 6 mil dollars on these parks. I feel like we could make it very nice without going this far. I agree that original florida is where we were with this. I thought we were J. Smith Handwritten Minutes, 8-3-2021 reg mtg, Page 5 of 9 going to do the basis for all the parks and infrastructure and then start layering them together. BK-I love that you took it upon yourself to incorporate the street as part of the commercial area. Would be wonderful to tie it in somehow. People stop in at the helicopter from out of town all the time. Disconnect comes from obviously we didn't provide enough guidance to the committee or you at any point. I appreciate the efforts but Im sure you know now that this is getting scaled back. I look forward to what the parks will look like and phasing the parks so they are coming up together. GF-we expedited this park because there was a timeline for the sculptures NC-will this be paid for by donors and grants and not taxpayer money? MW-all the parks would have to be taxpayer and/or grants MC-just because its in the city limits doesn't mean its only used by the City. This was a community effort from the start. NC-what about maintenance? MW-we pay for maintenance NC-A lot of maintenance involved in this park. I saw the rendition and you cant see any buildings from the road Bridgette Waldau OKMS — Design is beautiful, architect has been great to work with. Because of the proposed price, we want to make a statement to make sure this whole thing doesn't take away from our original vision 3 years ago. We never requested much of these changes, all we wanted from you was to let us put in park 5. We promised you we would make this a community project. The sculpture side of this has been private donors who want to fund this. We understand people not wanting to spend tax dollars on the arts but we are not forcing this on anyone. At beginning of year we were nailing down the layout. There would have been no way we would have taken this project like this and dropped in 10 large bronze statues willy nilly. Our infrastructure would not have been as nice as this but it would have been very nice. OKMS wants to see a vibrant downtown. I think parks can be upgraded with community tenacity. We do not want to give up their vision but we've lost a lot of time from COVIDI9 and from having to go through the Flagler Park Committee. We feel like were at a standstill and we need some guidance. Jennifer Tewksbury- As a citizen and member of the FPDRAC I feel like we've been talking about this a long time and I appreciate continuing to speak on it. The committee acknowledged that this would not likely be funded when it was provided to us. Okeechobee has a lot of ideas that get put on shelves. We want the committee and council to be in sync. Asking you have an open mind on how we can do this. In my opinion, a lot of this should be funded by private members. The committee wants to do a good job but we need some direction. MW-OKMS I understand you want to move on this has been a while going. As I think about it I think maybe we need to ask the park committee to have OKMS present their plan for the park and have them look at it and try to work both plans together. Maybe see if that's some way we could manage. GR-OKMS right now is on a critical path so I think we need to provide them some guidance because the sculptures are coming in dec or beginning of year. We cant store them we need to put them into the ground and we need the concrete pads to do that. The committee needs to work with OKMS on the footprints and other amenities. Critical path is to get the pads out there and identify the location. I was concerned after the first meeting and that's why I brought consultant in. MC-the meeting where we agreed to spend the money for that plan. At that meeting there was a lot of discussion that we would be in a position to put those sculptures into the park. DA-That money was for plans MW-the money spent on architect the understanding was the construction plans for the cattlemen's park. We have to decide what plan we are going with. I think we need to go back to the park committee and go ahead and place those positions now. If we want to go further with other stuff we can do that later. MC-I thought we were going to have plans for where to put this Jennifer Tewksbury-Is there even a consider what would be a sensible investment per park? Architect needs something to work from? MW-staff would need to work on that. I was thinking we were going with OKMS plan and they were going to construct NC-cattle already bought? MW-being built they were all private donors. I think the city had committed the concrete for the bases. J. Smith Handwritten Minutes, 8-3-2021 reg mtg, Page 6 of 9 MC-basic infrastructure MW-I think they were planting the plants that don't require maintenance. We have to get this off dead center somehow. Mr Administrator do you want to go back to the Committee? GR-for this initial park can provide some construction design for this? If you know how much money you are getting you can BK-presentation had a slide showing per acre costs. Basis already listed out that has parameters listed to already work with. This is already established. Shoutd we go with these amounts as limits? MW-I think one of our issues is we just did something to cut our millage and now we are going to talk about 885,000 dollars back. Would like staff to say based on our current budget this is how much we put towards parks. GR-I think we have clear direction on where council stands and we have some groups here with common ground and we can move forward at next meeting. MW-they meet on 16t" and we meet on 17 so we will know what they want Kathy Scott FPDRAC-I have been here from the start of cattle drive and I am on FPDRAC. We had no idea the costs would be that much. We all agreed as a committee to put the brakes on. We know the economic position of our community so when these numbers came up we said we need to stop. As a Park Board member we are going to go back and they are going to ask how much do we have to work with. We've worked on this for 6 months. We are all busy we want to volunteer but we need direction. Board is going to ask if we don't have this how much do we have? MW-My opinion is to let OKMS install it and we can add stuff later. I think we need to get this going now and get it installed. GR you and IR can get together and see what we have.

With the initial contracts for G and H there was wording that was difficult to identify how much asphalt we need so these both have contingencies in case of overrun. DA-When this was originally presented asphalt is an estimate. There's always an adjustment on asphalt. The intent was not to have to come back if we were over. Intent has always been that asphalt is always an estimate. I had incorporated that into my original memo J.

He has some thoughts on how we can sell or dispose some of the equipment. He has contacts with other depts who need equipment we have and he may be able to negotiate with them. GovDeals can sell stuff for much less than its worth. DA-You can always put a minimum bid on GovDeals. CS-I had spoken with Admin and India about GovDeals. I didn't understand you can choose a minimum and I didn't want the city getting nothing from the sales. I was going J. Smith Handwritten Minutes, 8-3-2021 reg mtg, Page 8 of 9 to explore all of the equipment and figure out how much this is worth. We will probably try to govdeals first and use a price. MC-some of this is already part of the contract CS-yes this is all surplus equipment MC-I agree we need to sell these IR-whats before you tonight is just the disposal of equipment of items that are already at the County.
