PRESENTATIONS AND PROCLAMATIONS CONTINUED C. Mrs. Robin Brock was honored for her 22 years of service and presented with a Certificate of Retirement by Mayor Watford and Administrator Gary Ritter. She was accompanied by her husband Tommie Brock, her parents Mr. Lindell and Mrs. Virginia Selvey, her daughters and several grandchildren. The Certificate was read into the record as follows: "Whereas, Mrs. Robin L. Brock, began her municipal public service career on November 3, 2000, in the Administration Department under the direction of City Administrator Bill Veach; and Whereas, during her tenure, her duties and responsibilities expanded, changing her job title from Administrative Secretary to Executive Secretary, and then to Executive Assistant; and Whereas, being admired by her co-workers as impartial and fair, was elected to represent the Administration Department, General Services Department, and Office of the City Clerk employees on the Employee Grievance Committee for nineteen years, serving from January 2001 through December 2008, and from January 2012 to present day; and Whereas, Robin was elected to the Board of Trustees by her co-workers to represent their interests on the General Employees' Pension Fund, from January 20, 2006 through November 10, 2008; and Whereas, in addition to Mr. Veach she also served, but more importantly trained, City Administrators Brian Whitehall, Marcos Montes De Oca, and Gary Ritter, as well as Interim City Administrator John Cook. Upon her retirement, Robin will have served longer than any other person in this position since its creation in 1980. Furthermore, because of her direct responsibilities, it is only fitting to include the elected officials she confidently served, which are Mayors James E. Kirk and Dowling R. Watford, Jr., two City Clerks, and 12 City Council Members. And we would be remiss not to mention the two City Attorneys, John R. Cook, and John J. Fumero. Now, Therefore, this Certificate is presented on this 18th day of October 2022, to recognize Robin's 22 years of faithful service and her official retirement date of October 31, 2022. She will always be known for her incredible work ethic, and as an exceptional ambassador for the City. May you be proud of the work you have done and the difference you have made. We Will Miss You!"

MAYOR WATFORD CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:38 P.M. VII. NEW BUSINESS A. A request was presented by Ms. Sonja Chapa as the Class President, Ms. Nicole Hughes as the Class Vice President, and Ms. Tiffany Gould as a Class Member, for the Okeechobee Chamber of Commerce Leadership Class of 2022, to install a welcome sign on the West -side of the Chamber of Commerce building (located 55 South Parrott Avenue). The sign, which is their class project, will feature three pictures highlighting agriculture and tourism with a QR code that will be linked to the community calendar on the Chamber's website. They partnered with the Okeechobee Tourism Development Council, who approved to fund $3,275.00 projected budget for the project. Additionally, they are conducting a fundraiser on October 28, 2022, to provide a reserve for long-term maintenance of the sign. Motion and second by Council Members Keefe and Chandler to approve the request [as presented in Exhibit 3], Motion Carried Unanimously. B. Mrs. Tammy Cook-Weedon, Director of Landscape Architecture with Calvin, Giordano, and Associates (CGA) provided an update on the progress of the Flagler Park Master Plan utilizing a fourteen -slide power point [as presented in Exhibit 4]. This update focused on the conceptual designs for the Veteran's Memorial Square, Block E/Park No. 1 (CGA Project Park No. 2). The schedule has shifted slightly from what was previously provided. All designs and improvements are being proposed within the set budgetary constraint of $300,000.00 per park. She emphasized the designs are conceptual in nature and are not intended to be actual construction plans. Veteran's Memorial Square has been redesigned to include seating areas and landscape screens to provide privacy for reflection, relocating some of the existing monuments to allow the center of the park to be open for events and displays. Bronze statues to honor each branch of the military are proposed to be added, two photographs of examples were distributed at the meeting and have been incorporated into Exhibit 4 of the official minute file. During the discussion, Mayor Watford noted the City entered into an Agreement with the American Legion several years ago when the group presented the Council with the plans to make improvements, add features, and monuments that are currently located in the park today. The Agreement spelled out that the members of the American Legion were required to maintain those improvements/monuments. Unfortunately, over the years, they have not been able to do this, but other individuals/organizations have. Due to the investment the City is considering, he directed Staff to revisit the Agreement to determine the best course of action to either dissolve or revise it. This item was for informational purposes only and no official action was required. C. Administrator Ritter outlined three options for pursuing a City-wide Fire Assessment. Option One: the City continues to pay the County $600,000.00+ a year with no additional assessments to City residents and businesses. Option Two: the City continues to pay $600,000.00+ to the County and assesses all City residents, churches, and businesses a fire tax for additional revenue. Option Three: the City renegotiates the Interlocal Agreement with the County now. A new Agreement would allow the County to assess all residents and businesses within the City and County a fire tax and the City would not be required to pay the County $600.000.00+ for fire services. There was a three (Chandler, Jarriel, and Clark) to two (Keefe and Watford) consensus to continue with option one and address future fire assessment issues when the Interlocal Agreement is due for renewal in approximately five years.

Future Land Use, Zoning, and Existing Use of Subject Property(s) Future Land Use Zoning Use of Property Acreage Existing Single -Family Residential RSF-1 Church .651 Proposed Public Facilities PUB Museum .651 Future Land Use, Zoning, and Existing Use of Surrounding Properties North East South West Future Land Use Zoning Single -Family Residential RSF-1 Single -Family Residential/ Commercial RSF-1/ Commercial Professional Office Single -Family Residential, Multi -Family Residential RSF-1, RMF Single -Family Residential RSF-1 Description of Request and Existing Conditions Existing Use Residential Residential Residential, Church Residential The request for consideration by the Okeechobee County Planning Board is an administratively initiated Amendment to the Future Land Use Map of the City's Comprehensive Plan to change the future land use designation of the subject parcel from Single -Family Residential to Public Facilities. Concurrent with thE! map amendment, a rezoning application has been submitted to rezone the subject property from CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS rr --7. - DEPEW Comprehensive Plan Amendment Staff Report 09/02/2022 Petition No. 22-007-SSA Residential Single -Family (RSF) to Public Use (PUB). The 0.651-acre parcel is the site of the Okeechobee Primitive Baptist Church. The purpose of this request is to prepare the subject property to be used by the Okeechobee Historical Society as a museum. A lease agreement for this arrangement has already been executed between the City and the Historical Society. Based on the size of the property, per Chapter 163.3187 F.S., this application qualifies as a Small -Scale Amendment (SSA) to the Comprehensive Plan. Current Maximum Development Potential as Residential Single -Family The property is currently designated Single -Family Residential on the City of Okeechobee Future Land Use Map. The Single -Family Residential FLU allows a maximum density of four dwelling units per acre for residential units on individual lots. Additionally, mobile home parks are allowed six units per acre and the maximum density for affordable housing is 5 units per acre. The subject property has a maximurn development potential of 2.6 single-family residential dwelling units. Theoretically, the property could be split to create two lots, each developed with a single-family residence. Proposed Maximum Development Potential as Public Facilities Other than use of the property as a museum, no specific plans for improvement have been identified at this time. However, if this map change is approved, the property may be developed according to standards of the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code, specifically those that pertain to the Public Facilities district and public uses. The Public Facilities FLU allows for permitted uses including parks, schools, government buildings, fire stations, other recreational and non -recreational public properties, and accessory uses customary to permissible uses. The proposed FLU allows for a maximum impervious surface coverage of 85%, which is far greater than the 55% permitted in the Single Family Residential FLU. This increase in allowable impervious surface area will enable the city or the Historical Society greater flexibility to make any improvements to the site that are necessary, including a large parking lot. Estimates of Demand The Following estimates relate to the existing building located on the subject property. Potable Water: 0.15 GPD per SF x 3,275 SF = 491.25 GPD Sanitary Sewer: 0.15 GPD per SF x 3,275 SF = 491.25 GPD Service Availability The Okeechobee Utility Authority has identified that sanitary sewer and potable water service is available to the subject property. The development potential of the property would permit for public uses only, which are not expected to impact the solid waste level of service. The subject property has been developed for many years and all emergency services will continue to serve the subject property. CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS. DEPEW Comprehensive Plan Amendment Staff Report 09/02/2022 Petition No. 22-007-SSA Environmental Impacts The subject property is largely cleared of vegetation and occupied by an existing structure, which was developed in 1923, making it highly unlikely that unique habitats, wetlands, incompatible soil types, and flood prone areas would be located on the site. Additionally, the improvements to the property and the surrounding development pattern discourage the presence of any endangered species of wildlife and plants from populating the site. Internal Consistency with the City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan The Administratively Initiated Application for Comprehensive Plan Amendment requires that the Applicant demonstrate consistency with the City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan and provides a series of consistency questions that the Applicant, The City of Okeechobee, must respond to. 1. Discuss how the proposal affects established City of Okeechobee population projections. The proposed Public Facilities Future Land Use does not allow for residential density. The slight reduction in area designated for residential uses will not significantly affect population projections. List all goals and objectives of the City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan that are affected by the proposed amendment. This analysis should include an evaluation of all relevant policies under each goal and objective. Future Land Use Element Policy 2.2: In accordance with property rights policies adopted by the Central Florida Regional Planning Council in the Central Florida Regional Policy Plan, the City of Okeechobee recognizes and shall continue to protect private property rights. In implementing the Comprehensive Plan, the City shall continue 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. Planning for land use and public facilities in the City shall consider private property rights, and ensure citizen input into government land use decisions affecting property rights. The subject property is developed with a church. The proposed use of the existing structure by the Historical Society as a museum will repurpose the former Okeechobee Primitive Baptist Church, which is not currently in use. The historic nature of the existing structure makes it highly unlikely that the subject property will ever be redeveloped, and the Public Facilities Future Land Use would allow for more flexibility in utilization of the property. Future Land Use Element Policy 2.5: The City shall amend its Future Land Use Map, as necessary, to address inconsistent land use areas. The subject property is within the Single -Family Residential Future Land Use, although it has never been developed with residential uses. Amending the Future Land Use of the subject property to Public Facilities is more consistent designation with the planned use of the property by the Historical Society. CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS, -- _ DEPEW Comprehensive -Plan Amendment 09/02/2022 Staff Report Petition No. 22-007-SSA 3. Describe how the proposal affects the County's Comprehensive Plan as it relates to adjacent unincorporated areas. The subject property is not located at or near the boundary between the City of Okeechobee and Unincorporated Okeechobee County. 4. List State Policy Plan and Regional Policy Plan goals and policies that are relevant to this plan amendment. Staff Response: Consistent with FS. 163.3187(1)(c), the subject property is not located within an area of critical state concern. Justification and Recommendation The Okeechobee Primitive Baptist Church is over 100 years old and has significant historic value. The City of Okeechobee Historical Society intends to use the site as a museum to educate the public about the history of the City of Okeechobee. The proposed Public Facilities Future Land Use is more consistent with this intended use and will allow the City and the Historical Society greater flexibility in maintaining and improving the site. Additionally, the unique historical value of the subject property makes it highly unlikely that a single-family residence would ever be proposed to replace the existing structure. Staff recommends approval of this amendment to change the Future Land Use designation from Residential Single -Family to Public Facilities.
