HI MY NAME IS CARBOY RESULT OF THIRTY THIRTY FIVE SOUTHEASTER PLACEKICKER OF FLORIDA. I'VE BEEN HERE SINCE NINETEEN FORTY ONE. THERE WERE THREE TRAFFIC LIGHTS UH I'D LIKE TO TALK TO THE MAYOR AND ESTEEMED COUNCIL ABOUT A COUPLE OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENDEAVORS YOU KNOW FOR STANDING UP ONE SIXTEEN AWARDS FOR MY ENVIRONMENTAL EFFORTS MY LATEST ONE WAS FROM MY UNIVERSITY OF NORTHERN COLORADO FOR MY WORK ENVIRONMENT. THEY GAVE STEVE AWARD FROM THE UNIVERSITY FEEL ON IT. SO I THINK I HAVE SOME OUTSTANDING FIRST OF ALL, I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE OLD GOLF COURSE. THE OLD GOLF COURSE HAS BEEN LANGUISHING FOR TOO MANY YEARS. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE AND IT MUST BE DONE NOW BECAUSE PRICES ARE RISING ON LAND. WE'LL TAKE YOUR FRIENDS. THE WILD LIFE STARTED OUT. WE'RE PAYING 10000 DOLLARS A LOT NOW IT'S UP TO TWENTY FIVE TO THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS A LOT WITH THE SAME OLD LOT. UH I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER PUTTING IT ON THE BALLOT THIS YEAR. I THINK IT WILL HAVE NO TROUBLE PASSING IT BECAUSE I REMEMBER ONE PASSED WITH SEVENTY SIX PERCENT AND TWENTY TWENTY TWO THE LAND THAT THE COUNTY BUYS THROUGH TWENTY TWENTY PAST WITH SEVENTY EIGHT PERCENT. SO I THINK IT WILL PASS AND I REQUESTED THAT IT MIGHT BE A GREEN AREA YOU KNOW WE NEED MORE GREEN AREAS. WE NEED BALLOTS WITH THE WILDLIFE AND SHADY GROVE THE CITY GROWTH IS OUTSTRIPPING OUR WILDLIFE. IF THIS HAPPENS WE WON'T HAVE ANY. SO IF YOU LIKE THE EAGLES ON THE GOLF COURSE THE BOBCAT RABBITS WELL WHATEVER IT HAS EXCELLENT FLESHY LIKE I FISHED THE LIKES YEARS AGO AND THE KIDS WILL ENJOY THAT. YOU KNOW THERE'S THOUSANDS OF HOUSES SURROUND THAT WITH THE KIDS AND FISH. SO THIS IS WHAT I REQUEST THAT YOU OFFICIALLY PUT IT ON THE BALLOT THIS YEAR BECAUSE THIS MIGHT EVEN GO UP HIGHER WITH THE BLACK BOOM WE'RE HAVING RIGHT NOW. WE DON'T KNOW THIS BUT I THINK THIS WILL HAPPEN. THE SECOND THING I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT IS, UH, WE NEED AN ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITTEE WITHIN THE CITY JUST LIKE A PLANNING COMMITTEE MADE BY PEOPLE OUT OF THE TOWN. YOU KNOW, WE WE NEED THE ENVIRONMENT FOR BALANCE AND FOR CONTINUITY WITH A CITY. FOR EXAMPLE, WE BROUGHT OVER WE BOUGHT THIRTY SEVEN BLOCKS AT OVER SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND. WE CALL FOR TOURISTS AND BRING OUR TIME. WE WANT TO KEEP IT FROM THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR. ANYONE ELSE WISHING TO SPEAK TO ONE CITIZEN SAID PLEASE COME FORWARD SAY A NONCITIZENS IS NOW CLOSED. ANY COUNCIL DISCUSSION ON CITIZENS INPUT ANYTHING I'LL SAY FIRST CARL I WOULD SUGGEST POSSIBLY CITY COUNCIL INDIVIDUALLY YOUR CONCERNS. I KNEW THAT THREE MINUTES IS A LITTLE RESTRICTIVE AT SOME TIME BUT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SEND AN EMAIL THAT MAYBE OUTLINES WHAT YOUR CONCERNS ARE OR SET UP MEETINGS WITH COUNCIL TO DISCUSS THOSE CONCERNS ON A ONE ON ONE BASIS AS FAR AS THE OLD GOLF COURSE IS CONCERNED, I REALLY BELIEVE THAT THIS COUNCIL HAS A DESIRE TO POSSIBLY LOOK AT PURCHASING THE GOLF COURSE. UNFORTUNATELY THERE'S SOME ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED FIRST AND THAT'S NOT IN OUR COURT THAT'S IN THE SELLER'S COURT THAT THEY HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY MEET CERTAIN FDCPA REQUIREMENTS AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE WAITING ON. WE REALLY CAN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL THAT INITIATIVE IS COMPLETED AND WE'RE NOT THERE YET. SO THAT'S WHERE WE ARE WITH THE OLD GOLF COURSE. SO WE'RE JUST WAITING ON THE PROPERTY OWNERS TO DO WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TO MAKE SURE IT'S A GOOD SITE FOR PURCHASE IF WE HAPPEN TO PURCHASE THE LOT IN A CONDITION THAT IS NOW WE MIGHT BEAR A LOT OF LIABILITY THAT COMES ALONG WITH. SO THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE TO MITIGATE ANY ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES FIRST. NO, SIR, BUT YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME TO CONTACT ME TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION AT ANY TIME ANY OTHER DISCUSSION FROM ANY COUNCIL MEMBERS. OK, CNN WE WILL MOVE ON TO ITEM NINE NINE EIGHT IS CONSENT AGENDA. I'LL NOW OPEN UP THE CONSENT AGENDA TO PULL ANY ITEMS AS THE CITY MANAGER MENTIONED, HE WOULD LIKE TO PULL ITEM NINE A THREE CORRECT. MR. CITY MANAGER. AND IS THERE ANY OTHER ITEMS THE COUNCIL WANTS TO PULL? IF NOT, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE REMAINING BALANCE OF THE CONSENT AGENDA ITEM TO APPROVE SECOND ITEM CITY CLERK CALL THE ROLL ON THOSE ITEMS SHEPHERD I WELL I COSDEN ENTER HEYDEN LONG TIME SIX MOTION OK MR. CITY MANAGER AS FAR AS RESOLUTION NINETY DASH TWENTY TWO I'LL TURN THE FLOOR. THANK YOU MR. MAYOR. MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL I'M GOING TO ASK JEFF PEARSON, UTILITIES DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR TO COME TO THE PODIUM. HE HAS A QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE ITEM THAT'S BEFORE YOU TODAY AND THE ITEM THAT'S BEFORE YOU IS BASICALLY A CONTRACT AWARD TO ALLOW US TO PROCEED WITH THE PROJECT KNOWN AS THE CALOOSAHATCHEE CANEK RECLAIMED WATER TRANSMISSION LINE WHICH IS A A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL, THE CITY OF FORT MYERS AND ALSO THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO HELP US ADDRESS WATER QUALITY ISSUES IN OUR REGION. I THINK IT IS PERHAPS ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT WATER QUALITY PROJECTS THAT EXISTS IN SOUTHWEST FLORIDA BECAUSE IT ALLOWS US IN WORKING WITH THE CITY OF FORT MYERS TO REDIRECT WATER THAT THE CITY OF FORT MYERS WOULD OTHERWISE RELEASE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT DEEP WELL INJECTION OR OTHER MEANS AND ALLOWS THEM TO TRANSMIT THEIR REUSE WATER TO THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL WHERE WE CAN USE IT TO SUPPLEMENT OUR IRRIGATION WATER SYSTEM. SO I LIKE MR. PEARSON JUST AGAIN WALK YOU THROUGH THIS PROJECT FOR THE BENEFIT OF OF TO HELP EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND ALLOW THE PUBLIC TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS PROJECT THAT THE CITY IS UNDERTAKING. MR. PEARSON? THANK YOU, MR. CITY MANAGER MAYOR COUNCIL THIS PROJECT RESOLUTION THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS RESOLUTION NINETY, DASH TWENTY TWO. WE'RE SEEKING APPROVAL TO AWARD A CONTRACT TO A MESSY ENGINEERING CONTRACTORS LLC FOR THE PROJECT IN THE AMOUNT OF 11 MILLION NINE SIX NINETY AND SIXTY CENTS WITH A CITY CONTROL CONTINGENCY OF 10 PERCENT FOR A TOTAL PROJECT COST OF TWELVE MILLION 836 660 AND AUTHORIZE A CITY MANAGER OR DESIGNEE TO EXECUTE THE CONTRACT AND PURCHASE ORDERS JUST TO GET STARTED HERE ON THE BRIEF PRESENTATION IN JUNE OF TWENTY TWENTY ONE WE RECEIVED THE INITIAL BIDS FOR THE SUB AQUEOUS PORTION OF THE PROJECT IN AUGUST OF LAST YEAR THE BID WAS CONTESTED AND THEN WE REBID THE PROJECT LAST MONTH SO FAR BEGINNING IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR THE UPLINE PORTION OF THE PROJECT BEGAN THAT START STARTED IN HORTON PARK AND IS MOVING WEST TO THE EVERISS WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY AS WE SPEAK. SOME OF THE GRANTS WE'VE RECEIVED GO BACK QUITE A WAYS. WE FIRST RECEIVED A GRANT STATE APPROPRIATIONS GRANT FOR 790000 AND THEN WE'VE RECEIVED A NUMBER OF GRANTS SINCE THEM. I WON'T GO THROUGH ALL OF THEM BUT WE'VE RECEIVED TO DATE OVER TEN MILLION FOR THIS PROJECT AND WE ANTICIPATE POTENTIALLY GETTING MORE FOR THIS PROJECT AS WELL. THE INNER LOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF FORT MYERS WAS SIGNED IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN AND BASICALLY IT REQUIRES THE CITY OF FORT MYERS TO UPGRADE THEIR S ADVANCED WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY TO BE ABLE TO PRODUCE RECLAIMED QUALITY WATER AND REQUIRES THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL TO CONSTRUCT THE PIPELINE. ALSO THE AGREEMENT STIPULATES THAT THE PIPELINE BE ABLE TO HANDLE UP TO TWELVE MILLION GALLONS A DAY OF WATER FROM THE CITY OF FORT MYERS. BUT DURING A DRY SEASON AND AND CONTRACTUALLY WE HAVE TO BUY SIX MILLION GALLONS A DAY FOR SEVEN MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. ALSO CAPE CORAL IMPROVEMENT'S ARE GOING TO BE THEY ARE ORIGINALLY GOING TO BE COMPLETED IN JANUARY NOW THAT TIMELINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED BECAUSE OF A BIG PROTEST WE'RE LOOKING AT BASED ON THIS CONTRACT WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY OUR THE LONGEST PATH OF OUR CRITICAL PATH PUTS US AT SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION IN AUGUST OF TWENTY THREE. HERE'S A MAP SHOWING THE PROJECT THE BLUE LINE. WE'RE STAYING SOUTH OF THE MIDPOINT BRIDGE AND THEN TYING IN TO THE CITY OF FORT MYERS PLANT AND THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL'S EVEREST PLANT. SOME OF THE PURPOSES AND NEEDS FOR THIS PROJECT INCLUDE OF COURSE THE OBVIOUS ONE PROVIDES MORE RECLAIMED WATER FOR OUR IRRIGATION SYSTEM. IT WILL HELP US WITH OUR FIRE PROTECTION SERVICES WITH ALL THE FIRE HYDRANTS THAT WE HAVE . IT HELPS MAINTAIN OUR FRESH WATER CANAL LEVELS BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO PUT LESS STRESS ON OUR FRESHWATER CANALS BY BEING ABLE TO USE AN ALTERNATIVE WATER SOURCE AND FOR THE CITY OF FORT MYERS IT'S GOING TO HELP EVERYONE NOT JUST THE CITY BY REDUCING THE NUTRIENT DISCHARGES CURRENTLY BEING DISCHARGED INTO THE RIVER APPROXIMATELY ACCORDING TO THEIR PERMIT THEY CAN DISCHARGE OVER 100000 POUNDS OF NITROGEN PER YEAR AND ABOUT SIXTEEN THOUSAND POUNDS OF PHOSPHORUS. SO THIS IS ONE MORE STEP AND HELPING IMPROVE THE WATER QUALITY OF THE RIVER. SO THIS PROJECT REALLY HAS ITS ORIGINAL IT HAS REGIONAL IMPACTS TO OUR WHOLE AREA BY IMPROVING THE WATER QUALITY IN THE RIVER FOR ALL THOSE THAT LIVE IN SOUTHWEST FLORIDA, NOT JUST CAPE CORAL AND FORT MYERS AND ALSO IT ALLOWS THE CITY OF CAPE FORT MYERS TO DISPOSE OF THE RECLAIMED WATER IN A MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY WAY RATHER THAN PUTTING IT IN THE RIVER OR SENDING IT DOWN A DEEP INJECTION WELL WHICH THOSE ARE VERY EXPENSIVE AND YOU CAN NEVER RECOVER THAT WATER ONCE IT'S INJECTED HERE. SOME SPECIFICS ABOUT OUR PROJECT, THE LENGTH OF THE PIPE UNDERNEATH THE RIVER IS APPROXIMATELY SEVENTY THREE HUNDRED FEET AND ALSO WE WILL BE PUTTING IN A TANK THERE AT THE PRESSURE TANK AT HORTON PARK. IT'LL BE FENCED IN. THAT'S A PICTURE OF WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE. IT'S IT'S NOT A HUGE TANK. OF COURSE WE'LL TRY TO DISGUISE IT WITH SOME SOME LANDSCAPING AND THAT ALSO WILL BE UPDATING THE HEADER SYSTEM AT THE EVEREST'S WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY WHICH WILL ALLOW US TO EITHER SEND THE WATER DIRECTLY INTO THE CITY'S IRRIGATION DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM OR STORE IT IN OUR STORAGE TANKS OR PUT IT DOWN A DEEP INJECTION. WELL, BECAUSE PART OF THE AGREEMENT WAS ONE OF THE BENEFITS OF THE AGREEMENT TO FORT MYERS WAS ALLOWING INSTEAD OF THEM BUILDING ANOTHER DEEP INJECTION WELL WE WOULD USE OURS THAT IS CAPABLE OF DISPOSING APPROXIMATELY 18 MILLION GALLONS A DAY OF WATER AND THAT WE RARELY USE IN THE PAST YEAR I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE WE'VE HAD TO USE THAT WELL SO WE MIGHT AS WELL START USING AND USE IT FOR A GOOD REASON WHICH IS HELPING FORT MYERS GET OUT OF THE RIVER AND HELPING THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL CONTINUING ON ABOUT THE PROJECT . THE WE'RE GOING TO BE USING FUSEL OLD PVC PIPE AND THIS PROJECT IS BUILD POTENTIALLY TO BE THE LARGEST AND LONGEST HORIZONTAL DIRECTIONAL DRILL USING THAT MATERIAL IN THE UNITED STATES AND THIS IS JUST ANOTHER MAP OF THE PROJECT SHOWING THE THE YELLOW LINE IS THE OPEN CUT PORTION. THE BLUE LINE IS THE HORIZONTAL DIRECTIONAL DRILL AREA AND THE GREEN DOTS ARE WHERE THE DRILLING RIGS WILL BE PUT IN. THEY'RE GOING TO BE DRILLING ON BOTH SIDES THE RIVER. THEY WILL BE GOING DOWN APPROXIMATELY ONE HUNDRED FEET BELOW THE RIVER SO AS NOT TO IMPACT THE RIVER AND THEY WILL MEET AND PULL THE PIPE BACK THROUGH ONCE THE DRILLS MEET IN THE MIDDLE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WILL OCCUR THAT THE PUBLIC CAN EXPECT AT HORTON PARK IS THAT THE PUBLIC RESTROOMS WILL REMAIN OPEN DURING CONSTRUCTION . HORTON PARK, INCLUDING THE PLAYGROUND WILL CLOSE DURING THE HORIZONTAL DIRECTIONAL DRILLING WORK. THE BOAT RAMP AND THE WALKING PATH ARE ANTICIPATED TO REMAIN OPEN EXCEPT WHEN THE FUZED PIPELINE IS BEING INSTALLED UNDER THE CLUES THAT HACHEY RIVER AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE AND I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. I ALSO HAVE BILL SPERRY WHO IS THE PROJECT ENGINEER ON THIS PROJECT AND WE'LL TRY TO ANSWER ANYTHING YOU HAVE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. PEARSON. I AGREE THIS IS PROBABLY A PROJECT IN A PARTNERSHIP THROUGHOUT OUR OUR REGION HERE THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE ONE OF THE BIGGEST ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS THAT WE CAN DO. SO I'M GLAD TO SEE THIS PROJECT FINALLY MOVING FORWARD. IT'S NOT GOING TO HELP OUR CITY. IT'S GOING TO HELP THE CITY OF FORT MYERS AND REGIONALLY I THINK IT'S GOING TO HELP OUR ENVIRONMENT AND I THINK THAT'S WHY WE'VE GOTTEN THE TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN GRANT MONEY SINCE TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN. I THINK THE STATE RECOGNIZES HOW IMPORTANT THIS PROJECT IS FOR OUR REGION AS WELL. ANY ANY OTHER DISCUSSION FROM COUNCIL ON THIS OR DO I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION NINETY DASH TWENTY TWO CERTAINLY SEEING NO DISCUSSION AND WE HAVE A MOTION THE SECOND ON THE FLOOR. MADAM CLERK COULD YOU PLEASE CALL THE ROLL SHEPARD WELL I COSDEN I GUNTUR HADYN I LOVE SIX SMASHING OK WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM THANK YOU MR PEARSON MOVE ON TO ITEM NINE B APPOINTMENTS TO BOARDS AND COMMITTEES HAVE YOU COUNCIL APPOINTMENTS TONIGHT WE HAVE SEVEN JUNIOR VACANCIES ON THE YOUTH COUNCIL AND WE HAVE ONE SENIOR MAKING SEE TONIGHT ON YOUTH COUNCIL AND WE ALSO HAVE SEVEN JUNIOR APPLICANTS AND WE HAVE ONE SENIOR APPLICANT FOR THESE POSITIONS. IS THAT CORRECT, MADAM CITY CLERK? YES, COUNCIL MEMBER. HE COUNCIL WAS ABLE TO INTERVIEW AT LEAST MOST OF COUNCIL. THEY WILL INTERVIEW MOST OF THE CANDIDATES LAST WEEK IN MY OPINION THEY ALL INTERVIEWED EXTREMELY WELL AND I'M EXCITED TO BRING THIS GROUP IN WITH OUR CURRENT GROUP OF UPCOMING SENIORS AND EXCITED ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE COUNCIL AS WELL AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THROUGH WITH THIS GROUP HELPING PLAN THE FUTURE OF THE CITY THROUGH THROUGH THEIR EYES. SO AT LEAST BASED ON MY DISCUSSIONS I WILL MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE ALL EIGHT TO SEVEN FOR THE JUNIOR VACANCIES AND THE ONE FOR SENIOR VACANCY . SECOND, IS IT ANY FURTHER COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND THEN WE HAVE A MOTION IN THE SECOND MADAM CITY CLERK, PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. YES, YOUR HONOR. BEFORE I CALL THE ROLL, DO I HAVE COUNCIL'S PERMISSION TO PLACE ANY APPLICANT THAT IN A RANDOM ORDER BECAUSE SOMETIMES I HAD MORE THAN ONE APPLICANT FOR THE SAME SCHOOL? IS THAT ALL RIGHT? SO I HAVE THREE LIKE FOUR I OASIS AND RANDOMLY I CAN SELECT THE OASIS REPRESENTATIVE AND THE OTHER TWO WILL BE PLACED IN A SCHOOL THAT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED AN APPLICATION BUT REMEMBER THE ORDINANCE WE CHANGED THE SCHOOL SPECIFICATION OF THE SCHOOL ALL THE WAY. THANK YOU. OK ALL RIGHT I WELSH COSDEN I ENTER BY HANAN LE FIVE SIX SMUSHING PEOPLE MOVE ON TO ITEM NINE C UNFINISHED BUSINESS FOLLOW UP ITEMS FROM THE COUNCIL. DOES ANY COUNCIL MEMBER HAVE ANY FOLLOW ITEMS? CNN WILL MOVE ON TO ITEM NINETY PERSONAL ACTIONS. NINETY ONE IS COUNCIL OFFICE PERSONAL ITEM. I PUT THIS ON THE AGENDA FOR TWO REASONS. NUMBER ONE I JUST WANT TO UPDATE THE COUNCIL. IF YOU'RE NOT AWARE OF THE POSITION THAT WE HAVE OPENED IN OUR OFFICE FOR A STAFF POSITION LEGISLATIVE EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT WE HAD A APPLICATION PERIOD THAT ENDED LAST WEEK. WE HAD A TOTAL OF NINETY THREE APPLICANTS FOR THE ONE POSITION WITH THE HELP OF THE H.R. DEPARTMENT WE HAD THE APPLICANTS REVIEWED BY THE H.R. DEPARTMENT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY MET THE MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS NOT NINETY THREE MET THOSE QUALIFICATIONS. THE ONES THAT DID WERE GIVEN A SKILL TEST THAT THEY COULD TAKE ONE LONG AND AS A RESULT OF THAT WE HAD TWENTY VIABLE CANDIDATES THAT ARE LEFT OUT OF THE NINETY THREE APPLICANT SO THE TWENTY OF APPLICANTS THAT WE HAVE JUST LIKE WE HAD IN OUR PREVIOUS DISCUSSION I BELIEVE THERE'S FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS WHICH WOULD BE COUNCIL MEMBER NOW SOME COUNCIL MEMBER WELSCH COUNCIL NO LONG AND COUNCIL MEMBER COSDEN ALONG WITH THIS GRILLING IN OUR OFFICE MY ASSISTANT WILL DO RESUME MEETINGS AND INTERVIEWS WITH THESE TWENTY APPLICANTS AND AS A RESULT OF THAT WE WILL NARROW THE POOL OF INDIVIDUALS DOWN TO FIVE. I WILL MENTION WE HAVE ONE MEMBER OR ONE APPLICANT THAT IS AN INTERNAL APPLICANT THAT IS A CITY EMPLOYEE NOW AND ALSO WE HAVE ONE INDIVIDUAL WHO MEETS THE QUALIFICATION OF THE VETERAN APPLICANT AND THE POLICIES THAT WE HAVE FOR THAT. SO I THINK FOR ME WE NARROWED IT DOWN TO THE FIVE PEOPLE PLUS THOSE TWO INDIVIDUALS. SO THAT WOULD BE A TOTAL OF SEVEN AND I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT FORWARD TO SEE IF THAT'S HOW WE WANT TO MOVE FORWARD ONCE WE GET IT DOWN TO THOSE FIVE INDIVIDUALS WITH THOSE TWO OTHER APPLICANTS, THEN WE CAN SET UP INTERVIEWS WHAT WAS CLASSIFIED AS A ROUND ROBIN TYPE INTERVIEW WITH ANY OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THEN WE WILL SCORE THOSE INDIVIDUALS FROM THERE AS WELL. SO THE FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS AND MY ASSISTANT WILL GRADE THOSE INDIVIDUAL AND NARROW IT DOWN TO THE FIVE PLUS THE TWO NIMO WILL HAVE INTERVIEWS WITH THE ALL OF COUNCIL COLLECTIVELY TO NARROW IT DOWN TO THE INDIVIDUAL THAT WE WILL RECOMMEND OFTEN A THE POSITION TO. SO I JUST WANTED TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT BUT I BELIEVE THAT'S HOW WE DECIDED TO MOVE FORWARD BUT OPEN FOR SUGGESTIONS FROM HERE IF ANYONE HAS ANY COUNCIL MEMBER COSDEN. THANK YOU MAYOR. DID I HEAR YOU SAY THAT TWENTY INTERVIEWING THE TWENTY APPLICANTS THE FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS WILL INTERVIEW THE FOUR BY ZOOMER OR TELEPHONIC HEROCK OR INDIVIDUALLY WELL YOU CAN'T DO IT BY GROUP. YOU'LL HAVE TO DO IT INDIVIDUALLY. SO THE FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS MY UNDERSTANDING IS MY ASSISTANT WILL SET IN WITH ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS BECAUSE THERE'S NOT A SUNSHINE VIOLATION THERE AND SHE CAN DO THE DO THE INTERVIEW WITH THEM AS WELL TO TO DO THE RANKING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DEVELOP AND I THINK H.R. IS GOING TO HELP US WITH THE QUESTIONS IN THE RANKING. SO WE ARE ALL DOING IT EVENLY WHEN WE DO THE INTERVIEWS AND WHEREVER THE TOP TOP FIVE OUT OF THE TWENTY LAND THAT'S WHERE WE'LL LAND FOR FOR THE NEXT STEP AROUND TO THE INTERVIEWS SO EACH CANDIDATE WILL MEET WITH FOUR DIFFERENT COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THEIR FIRST INTERVIEW. THAT IS CORRECT. OK, I'M A LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE NERVOUS ABOUT DOING TWENTY INTERVIEWS. I THINK THE I THINK THE WAY WE DID THIS WHEN WE HIRED THE LAST EMPLOYEE JAMES IF I RECALL BECAUSE I WAS THE OFFICE MANAGER THEN I THINK WE GOT THESE APPLICATIONS LIKE THIS ONE APPLICATIONS AND THE ONES THAT WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIRING PULLED OUT THE TOP APPLICATIONS THAT THEY WANTED TO INTERVIEW MAYBE TEN OR SO. AND SO I'M JUST WORRIED ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF TIME AND ENERGY THAT'S GOING TO GO INTO INTERVIEWING ALL THESE PEOPLE NOT JUST FOR US BUT FOR THEM TO GOING THROUGH FOR INTERVIEWS AND SO I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE. I HAVE DO I'LL DO IT THIS WAY IF EVERYONE AGREES. BUT YEAH, I DON'T THINK ANY OF US THOUGHT WE WOULD HAVE NINETY THREE APPLICANTS CRAZY AND IF I RECALL CORRECTLY FEATURES HERE MAYBE THEY CAN ENLIGHTEN US A LITTLE BETTER BUT I THINK OUT OF THE NINETY SOME APPLICANTS ONLY AROUND SIXTY ACTUALLY MET THE MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS AND AS A RESULT OF THE TESTING I SEE LISA WALKING UP TO THE PODIUM SO SHE MAY BE ABLE TO GIVE US A LITTLE BETTER INSIGHT INTO OF THE EQUATION HERE. BUT WE HAD MET AND WE I KNOW WE TALKED AS A COUNCIL SO SINCE WE HAD THIS MAGNITUDE OF APPLICANTS WE WANT TO CHANGE THE PROCESS. I THINK NOW WILL BE THE TIME. TO LISA LISA, SAN DIEGO HUMAN RESOURCES DIRECTOR. YEAH, MOST CERTAINLY IF YOU WANT TO PARE DOWN AND COUNT MEMBER COSDEN YES. THERE WAS A SMALLER GROUP. IT WAS LIKE OK SO YOU HAVE TWENTY TWENTY FIVE AT THIS POINT IN TIME IF YOU WANT TO JUST PULL FROM THAT AND DO THE TEN OR EIGHT TO DO THE FIRST ROUND OF INTERVIEWS AND THEN THOSE FOUR DO WHAT YOU HAD JUST EXPLAINED THAT PROCESS AND THEN IT'S JUST A SMALLER NUMBER YOU'RE WORKING WITH AND OUR H.R. DEPARTMENT CAN LOOK THROUGH THAT AS WELL AND HELP PAIR IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT. WE LOOK AT PUBLIC SECTOR AND OTHER FACTORS THAT MAY GO INTO HAVING SOME THAT RISE CLOSER TO THE TOP. SO AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING WITH CITY POLICY THE INDIVIDUAL WHO IS A VETERAN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS A CITY EMPLOYEE, THEY ARE THEY MUST BE GIVEN A INTERVIEW SOMEWHERE IN THE PROCESS. CORRECT. OUR INTERNAL CULTURE IS IT WE DO WANT TO INTERVIEW OUR INTERNAL CANDIDATES ETC. AND GIVE THEM THAT CAREER OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK TO LOOK AT THAT POSITION AND COMPETE FOR THAT AND IN VETERANS BY FLORIDA STATUTE THAT REACHED THIS LEVEL RECEIVE AN INTERVIEW AS WELL AND MAYBE THEY MAY BE PART OF THAT PARED DOWN TEN OR SO BUT WE MOST CERTAINLY WILL MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE IN THE MIX. SO I THINK THE QUESTION IS WE HAVE 20 APPLICANTS. HOW DO WE WANT TO MOVE FORWARD THAT WE WANT TO CONTINUE WITH THE METHOD THAT WE ORIGINALLY SAID WE DID OR DO YOU WANT TO NARROW IT DOWN FROM THERE? SO OPEN UP THE FLOOR. ANYTHING ELSE? COUNCIL MEMBER COSDEN BEFORE I MOVE ON TO OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS? NO, I'M GOING TO HEAR WHAT MY COLLEAGUES SAY AND THEN I'LL KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO. OK, COUNCIL MEMBER WELSCH THANK YOU MAYOR. I WAS BRIEFLY ABLE TO LOOK THROUGH SOME OF THE 20 APPLICATIONS TODAY. I CAN TELL YOU THAT IT WON'T BE TOO HARD FOR ME TO PICK TEN OUT OF THOSE TWENTY BECAUSE IN TWENTY INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEWS THE MAYOR IS GOING TO BE TOO MUCH TIME. SO I'D LIKE TO BRING IT DOWN JUST BY REVIEWING THE RESUMES AND COMMIT TO DOING TEN ZOOM INTERVIEWS OR PHONE INTERVIEWS . BUT I COULD CERTAINLY RANK THEM ONE TO TWENTY AND THEN MAYBE WE RANK ONE TO TWENTY. WE TAKE THE TOP RANKINGS OF THE TOP TEN INSTEAD OF JUST GOING THAT WAY AND WE COULD HAVE EACH OUR REVIEW OR ONE THROUGH TWENTY HIGHEST NUMBERS 113 GET TO THE NEXT ROUND SO I'D PREFER TO AT LEAST GET IT DOWN TO TEN BEFORE ANY SORT OF PHONE OR DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE APPLICANTS. OK CAN'T REMEMBER. HEY YEAH I WOULD RECOMMEND ALLOWING HUMAN RESOURCES TO PARE THAT LIST DOWN TO TEN AND THEN CONDUCT YOUR INTERVIEWS FROM THERE I THINK TRYING TO SCHEDULE TWENTY PEOPLE WITH THE COUNCIL COULD ALSO BE VERY DIFFICULT. UM SO I WOULD AT LEAST USE THE EXPERTIZE OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND HAVE THEM TAKE THAT LIST DOWN TO TEN AND TAKE YOUR ENTRIES FROM THERE. THANKS. YEAH I WOULD HAVE TO AGREE WITH COUNCIL MEMBER WELSCH. I THINK THE THE BURDEN SINCE THIS IS A POSITION AND OUR AND OUR DEPARTMENT THE BURDEN SHOULD BE LEFT ON US TO COME UP WITH THAT TEN IF IT SAY SO. I KIND OF AGREE WITH COUNCIL MEMBER WELSCH. WE WANT TO NARROW IT DOWN FURTHER BEFORE WE DO AN OPEN INTERVIEW. I LIKE THE RANKING ONE THROUGH TWENTY AND THE FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS AND MY ASSISTANT CAN DO THE RANKING ONE THROUGH TWENTY AND WHOEVER GETS THE TOP TEN SCORE THAT'S THE TEN INDIVIDUALS THAT WE START WITH . MAYBE WE DO THE INTERVIEWS WITH THE FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THE MIND ASSISTANT ON THE TEN AND THEN WE GET THAT NARROWED DOWN TO FIVE. THEN AS A COUNCIL COLLECTIVELY WE CAN DO THE SECOND PHASE OF THE INTERVIEWS WITH THOSE FIVE INDIVIDUALS. SO I KIND OF LIKE THAT THAT RECOMMENDATION A COUNCIL MEMBER WELSCH COUNCIL MEMBER ON THANK YOU. YEAH. IT'S PRETTY MUCH GOING TO MIMIC WHAT BOBBY SAID. I REALLY LIKE THE RANKING IDEA . I THINK TEN IS A GOOD NUMBER. I DID WANT TO CLARIFY WITH THOSE THAT DID MAKE THAT STATEMENT THOUGH THAT WHETHER THEY WERE INTENDING ON DOING THE TEN PLUS THE TWO ADDITIONAL OR WHETHER WE WERE GONNA INCORPORATE THOSE TWO ADDITIONAL INTO THAT FINAL TEN . YEAH, IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING AND SANOGO CAN CLARIFY IS THE TWO INDIVIDUALS MUST HAVE A INTERVIEW OR DO THEY JUST NEED TO BE A PART OF THE RANKING PROCESS? AN INTERVIEW AND BUT THEY MAY END UP BEING PART OF THAT TEN IN FOR SOME REASON OR NOT PART OF THAT TEN THEY WOULD BE ADDED INTO THAT. SO MAYBE TWELVE I THINK YOU'RE BUT I I WANT YOU TO GET STUCK ON TEN I MEAN IF IF IF CLEARLY EIGHT COME OUT IN YOUR WE LOOK TO THE RANKING THAT YOU ALL PROVIDE AND WE LOOK THROUGH TO SEE HOW MANY ONES ONES, TWOS, TWOS ET CETERA IF YOU'VE GOT EIGHT THAT ARE CLEARLY TO THE TOP AND THEN WE ADD THE OTHER TWO AND AGAIN THOSE TWO MAY BE PART OF THE EIGHT WE CAN GET YOU SOMEWHERE I COULD SEE OUT OF THE TWENTY IT SOUNDS LIKE ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS IS GOING TO LOOK THROUGH A LITTLE BIT AND WHEN BY THE APPLICATIONS COULD SEE THAT THERE WERE MAYBE TEN ROWS TO THE TOP THAT IS A PREFERENCE SO WE CAN KEEP AROUND EIGHT TEN IN MIND AS TO WHAT LOOKS SO IF WE DO A RANKING OF TEN AND JUST FOR ARGUMENT'S SAKE WE HAVE ONE OF THE INDIVIDUALS SAY THE THE BETTER MAKES THE TOP TEN BUT THE PERSON WHO IS IN-HOUSE DOESN'T THEN WE WOULD HAVE ELEVEN THAT RANKS CORRECT. SO THAT WOULD BE MY UNDERSTANDING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. SO I UNDERSTOOD THAT I DIDN'T KNOW IF WE WERE GOING TO TRY TO PICK TEN THAT THEY WEREN'T DIDN'T HAPPEN TO BE THEN WE WOULD BE OK OR BACK THEM IN INTO THE TEN. OK, THANK YOU COUNCIL MEMBERS SHEPHERD I JUST WANTED TO SAY I'M NOT ONE OF THE COUNCIL PEOPLE IT'S DOING THE INTERVIEWS BUT I'M AVAILABLE IF FOR SOME REASON IT'S TOO TIME CONSUMING FOR ONE OF THE COUNCIL PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT. I JUST WANT TO PUT MY NAME IN THAT I HAVE NO PROBLEM INTERVIEWING. OK WELL MAYBE HAVE YOU AS AN ALTERNATE FOR SOME REASON IF IF A COUNCIL MEMBER FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON JUST DOES NOT AVAILABLE IT DOESN'T HAVE THE TIME BECAUSE IT'S A LOT OF INTERVIEWS OK THAT I COULD FIT ALL RIGHT. SO I DON'T THINK WE NEED A MOTION ON THIS. I THINK WE JUST NEED TO HAVE A CONSENSUS THAT'S THE DIRECTION WE'RE MOVING FORWARD AND SO WE'RE ALL PRETTY CLEAR. SO I THINK WE HAVE THAT CONSENSUS MOVING FORWARD. SO THAT'S WILL WE WILL MOVE FORWARD AND WE WILL GET H.R.H. TO ASSIST AND WITH WITH THIS PROCESS. AND I THINK THE ONLY OTHER THING THAT I CAN THINK OF I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE A DEADLINE FOR THOSE FOR THAT RANKING. SO MAYBE THAT'S ONE LAST THING THAT WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT COME UP WITH A DATE THAT MUST BE SUBMITTED TO AND IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE DO WE WANT TO SUBMIT THOSE RANKINGS TO YOU? YES. I THINK IF YOU GET THEM SUBMITTED TO DAVE ANDERSON JUST YOU CAN EMAIL THEM DIRECTLY TO HIM AND IT WOULD BE ONE THING YOU COULD DO ONE THROUGH TWENTY FOUR A MONTH OR FIFTEEN WOULD BE APPROPRIATE BECAUSE THEN WE'LL PICK OUT WHATEVER YOU WOULD GIVE TO US. WE'LL LOOK THROUGH THAT TO SEE WHAT'S THE TOP TEN AND IT'S WEDNESDAY RIGHT. SO YOU'VE GOT THURSDAY, FRIDAY OVER THE WEEKEND DO YOU WANT UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY. NEXT WEDNESDAY THAT'S REALLY UP TO YOU. THERE'S FOUR OF YOU WHO ARE LOOKING THROUGH THEM. COUNCIL MEMBER NELSON MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE ANY DEADLINE ACTUALLY IT'S JUST YEAH, I KNOW THERE'S AN ISSUE THERE SO WE'LL HAVE TO IF THAT'S THE CASE THEN I GUESS WE'LL HAVE COUNCIL MEMBERS OR BE THE ALTERNATE. BUT YOU KNOW, I'M THINKING, YOU KNOW, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND NEXT WEEK ONE WEEK IS ENOUGH TIME. YEAH. SO HOW ABOUT BY THE END OF BUSINESS ON WEDNESDAY BY FOUR O'CLOCK THEN EXCELLENT. WE'LL WORK ON YOUR TIME FRAME AND WE'LL TAKE IT FROM THERE AND WE'LL HAVE THAT WITHIN SHORT ORDER AND WE'LL WORK WITH YOUR OFFICE IS OFFICE MANAGER AND CON TO GET THEM SET AND TO DO THE FIRST ROUND WITH THE FOR THOSE FIRST FOUR COUNCIL MEMBERS TO DO THE ZOOM'S ET CETERA. OK, ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN MOVING FORWARD. ALL RIGHT. THE NEXT TOPIC OF DISCUSSION I BROUGHT THIS UP A FEW WEEKS AGO ABOUT HAVING AN ASSISTANT OFFICE MANAGER AND I THINK I PROVIDED YOU IN ALONG WITH THE CITY CLERK A REVISED JOB DESCRIPTION. I WORK WITH H.R. DEPARTMENT AND DEVELOPING THIS BASICALLY WHAT I DID IF YOU NOTICE IN SOME OF THE CHANGES IS MORE OF A MANAGERIAL TYPE ROLE FOR AN INDIVIDUAL AS AN ASSISTANT OFFICE MANAGER AND WE OUTLINED SOME JOB DESCRIPTIONS AND WORKING WITH H.R. WITH THOSE JOBS DESCRIPTIONS IT WOULD ELEVATE THAT PARTICULAR JOB CLASSIFICATION FROM A AND B ONE 08 WHICH IS THE EXISTING CLASSIFICATION TO A AND B ONE OF NINE. IT'S A DIFFERENCE OF ABOUT BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE STARTING SALARY A DIFFERENCE OF ABOUT TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR THAT CHANGE, I THINK WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR TONIGHT IS JUST AN APPROVAL FOR THE JOB CLASSIFICATION NOT NECESSARILY WHO THAT INDIVIDUAL MAY OR MAY NOT BE. I THINK FIRST WE HAVE TO APPROVE THE JOB CLASSIFICATION AND THEN IN ANOTHER MEETING THEN WE CAN HAVE A DISCUSSION ON THE INDIVIDUAL THAT WILL FILL THAT ROLE. SO THAT'S KIND OF WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR TONIGHT AND I'LL OPEN THE FLOOR UP FOR ANY DISCUSSIONS AT THAT YOU MAY HAVE COUNCIL MEMBER COSDEN I AM HAPPY WITH US. IT LOOKS GOOD. ANY OTHER DISCUSSIONS? WE WILL PROBABLY NEED A MOTION FOR THIS. MADAM CITY CLERK SINCE WE'RE DEVELOPING A NEW JOB CLASSIFICATION. MADAM CITY ATTORNEY, I'M SORRY . YES OK SO WE WILL NEED A MOTION TO ESTABLISH THIS PARTICULAR JOB CLASSIFICATION AND AND THEN WE'LL NEED A VOTE ON THAT AS WELL. SO SECOND, ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION CASE THE AINUN MADAM CITY CLERK WE HAVE A MOTION IN THE SECOND ON THE FLOOR CONTROL THE ROLL SHEPHERD I WELL I COSDEN GUNTUR I HEYDEN LAW I SUCCESS MOTION CARRY AND MADAM CITY AND OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING VOTING COUNCIL REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING IN TWO WEEKS IF YOU COULD ADD THIS AGENDA ITEM AGAIN WE WILL HAVE A FURTHER DISCUSSION ON IT FROM THERE CERTAINLY. THANK YOU. >> OK WE DON'T HAVE ANY LISTED PETITIONS OF COUNCIL WHICH IS NINE FS SO WE'LL MOVE ON TO NINE FOLLOW UP ITEMS FROM CITY MANAGEMENT. ONE IS QUALITY UPDATE MR. CITY MANAGER. THANK YOU MR. MAYOR. IT'S TIME FOR YOUR REGULAR UPDATE ON WATER QUALITY ISSUES AFFECTING THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL. AND SO I'M GOING TO ASK THE PUBLIC WORKS STAFF LED BY PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR MICHAEL CHISHOLM TO THE PODIUM TO GO OVER TODAY'S SALIENT FACTS. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL MICHEEL AND PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR. I HAVE ONE CORRECTION FOR THE SCHEME'S INTRODUCTION TONIGHT'S WATER QUALITY UPDATE WILL NOT BE REGULAR BECAUSE WITH ME I HAVE SEVEN THREE PAGE ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEER PERMIT FOR OUR BUBBLE CURTAINS WAS RECEIVED THIS SUNDAY. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? THAT MEANS WE'RE ONE STEP CLOSER. WE NEED OUR DEP PERMIT NOW TO SEND THE DIVERS IN THE WATER BUT IT IS IT WAS A A YEAR IN THE MAKING LAST YEAR IN MAY WE SUBMITTED IT IN JUNE IT WENT TO NnMES AND SO HERE WE ARE A YEAR LATER WITH OUR ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS PERMIT TO TO DO THAT IN WATER WORK. SO I'M HAPPY TO SEE SOME OF YOU ALL SMILING AND CHEERING CHEERING WITH ME AS WELL. JUST TO CONTINUE ON THE UPDATE WE HAVE WE'VE STARTED THE DIRECTIONAL BORING FROM THE ELECTRICAL CABINET SO WE ARE BASICALLY GETTING EVERYTHING PREPARED. SO AS SOON AS WE GET THAT DEEP PERMIT IN PLACE WILL BE ABLE TO START THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE WATER SIDE. SO IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT, I WILL FEEL THEM. IF NOT, I'LL LET MY TAKE OVER THE LOCAL COUNCIL MEMBER. SO MR. CITY MANAGER, WAS THIS YOUR SURPRISE FOR ME? YES, COUNCIL MEMBER JUST FOR FULL DISCLOSURE ALL DISCLOSURE FULL DISCLOSURE I TOLD SEVERAL OF YOU THAT I WAS SITTING ON INFORMATION BUT I WAS WAITING FOR WEDNESDAY TO SHARE THAT NEWS WITH SO MIKI, YOU ONE THUMBS UP. OH RIGHT. WELL, IT WAS INTERESTING BECAUSE WE DID PUT AN UPDATE IN THE WATER QUALITY MEMO AND I DIDN'T GET ANY CALLS SO I DIDN'T THINK ANYBODY GOT TO THAT LEVEL OF DETAIL. SO IT WAS BUT IT WAS GOOD. SO WE'RE EXCITED STAFF'S EXCITED. WE'RE PLANNING TO GET GET IN THE WATER AND DO THE WORK. WE'VE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH THE VENDOR WHO'S GOING TO HELP US, YOU KNOW, SET IT UP, BUILD IT AND DEPLOY IT SO AND CAN YOU KIND OF MAYBE RELAY THE CONVERSATION THAT WE HAVE AS WE TALKED ABOUT SHOULD WE GET MAYBE THE DEP PERMIT AND A COUPLE OF WEEKS HOPEFULLY HOW THINGS WOULD BACK HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO INSTALL THE CURTAINS FINISHED THE ELECTRICAL WORK BUT THE COMPRESSORS IN AND WHEN WE THINK EVERYTHING MIGHT BE OPERATIONAL PENDING THAT PERMIT. SURE. SO WHAT WE HAVE BEEN PLANNING BASED ON THE INSTALLATION, THE ONE THAT WENT IN THE WATER DOWN AT THE MANDOLINE CANAL WAS BASICALLY TWO DAYS IN WATER WORK FOR EACH CURTAIN THERE ARE NINE OF THEM. SO WE'RE WE'RE LOOKING AT BASICALLY YOU KNOW, TWENTY DAYS THERE WE HAVE ON THE UPLINE PORTION I THINK NINE OF TEN ARE BASICALLY COMPLETE SOMEWHERE WAITING THE ELECTRICAL INSPECTION ONCE THAT GETS PASSED THEN YOU CAN ACTUALLY PUT A METER IN. I THINK IF I RECALL LAST WEEK IT WAS SEVEN OF TEN ALREADY HAVE THE METER IN PLACE. SO THOSE ONES WERE THE METER HAS ALREADY BEEN SAID. THE ELECTRICAL INSPECTION HAS PASSED. NOW THEY'RE DOING A DIRECTIONAL DRILL FROM THE CABINET TO THE SEAWALL AND IN THAT BASICALLY THROUGH THAT POINT OF CONNECTION IN THE SEAWALLS WHERE WE WILL CONNECT THE IN WATER PORTION. SO YOU KNOW, I WOULD SAY, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ROUGHLY 20 DAYS OF IN WATER WORK WE'RE GETTING IN THE RAINY SEASON. SO THERE MAY BE SOME TIMES WHEN THE DIVERS HAVE TO COME OUT OF WATER DUE TO LIGHTNING. IT WOULD BE REASONABLE TO SAY 45 TO 60 DAYS FROM FROM THAT PERMIT. YOU KNOW, IF WE WERE TO GET THAT IN JANUARY WHEN THERE'S NO LIGHTNING AND NO RAIN, NO ISSUES TO DEAL WITH, WE COULD PROBABLY HAVE IT DONE WITHIN THE TWENTY TO THIRTY DAYS. BUT JUST NEED TO BE CAUTIOUS WITH YOU KNOW, LIGHTNING AT THIS TIME OF YEAR. SO WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SALVAGE AT LEAST HOPEFULLY MOST OF THE RAINY SEASON. OH YEAH. SO WELL YOU KNOW OBVIOUSLY AGAIN YOU KNOW I HAVE TO WAIT ON THE DPI BUT YOU KNOW WE DON'T TYPICALLY START YOU KNOW MAYA WILL COME HERE AND AS YOU KNOW, SHE TELLS YOU WHEN THE WHEN THEY START OPENING THE FLOODGATES PERSAY USUALLY DOESN'T HAPPEN TOWARDS THE END OF RAINY SEASON. SO IF THEY KEEP ON WITH THAT WE WILL HAVE WE WILL HAVE THESE IN PLACE MOST LIKELY BEFORE THAT HAPPENS. THANKS. THANKS MAN. CAN'T REMEMBER COSDEN. THANK YOU MAYOR. THE DPI ISSUE CAN YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT A TIMELINE I KNOW WE DON'T KNOW WE CAN'T READ THE FUTURE BUT WHAT ARE WE EXPECTING. SO WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE DPI IS THERE'S TWO SITES THAT THE D IN THERE ALL THE WAY AT THE NORTHERN AND SO IT'S LIKE CHANTREY CANAL ON THE FOURMILE COVE CANAL THE DP THEIR COMMENTS TO US ACTUALLY WERE UNFOUNDED. THEY THEY BELIEVE THAT THE PLACES WHERE WE WERE PUTTING THE BUBBLE CURTAIN WERE IN STATE SOVEREIGN SUBMERGED WETLANDS. SO OUR CITY SURVEYOR AND OUR TEAM GOT TOGETHER AND SAID NO, WE HAVE THE PLATS, WE HAVE ALL THE ISSUES SO THEY THEY TOOK THE DATA FROM THE STATE FROM THE FLORIDA DPI LANDS MAPPING AND ACTUALLY PLANNED IT OUT FOR THEM AND THEN BASICALLY HAD TO PROVE THE STATE WAS INACCURATE AND THE STATE THEN AGREED. SO WE HAVE IT IN WRITING FROM THE STATE THAT THEY HAD AN ERROR IN WHAT THEY BELIEVED WAS THE BOUNDARY OF THE CITY. SO THE REVIEWERS HAVE SAID THEY AGREE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BUT NOW THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE FORMAL PROCESS OF AMENDING THAT ON THEIR SIDE BECAUSE THE PERMIT REVIEWERS CAN'T RELEASE IT UNTIL THAT'S CORRECT. OTHERWISE THEY WILL LOOK LIKE ON PAPER THAT THEY ISSUED IN STATE SOVEREIGN SUBMERGED LANDS WITHOUT A SOVEREIGN SUBMERGED LAND LEASE. SO THEY'RE WORKING ON THEIR END TO CORRECT THEIR ERROR AND AS SOON AS THAT HAPPENS THEN THE REVIEWER CAN RELEASE THE PERMIT SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY OUTSTANDING ITEMS OPEN TO TO TO DEAL WITH. IT'S JUST WAITING FOR THEM TO RESOLVE THEIR ISSUE THAT MAKES SENSE AND THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SMALL TO SAWFISH ISSUE WHICH IS RESOLVED RIGHT. THAT'S ALL RESOLVED ALL COVERED IN THE ARMY CORPS PERMIT ALL THE ALL THE ENDANGERED SPECIES STUFF THE THERE'S STUFF IN THERE ABOUT RIGHT WHALES, TURTLES, SEAGRASS, MANATEES STRIKE STRIKE AVOIDANCE MEASURES SO ALL THE ENDANGERED SPECIES STUFF IS COVERED IN THE ARMY CORPS. THE STATE LANDS DO DIFFERENT TYPES REVIEW. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE WHICH IS AND I KNOW YOU HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL COMMENTS. GOOD EVENING MAYOR AND COUNCIL MAYOR ROBERT PUBLIC WORKS ON MY SO THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF HEAVY RAIN IN THE PAST FEW DAYS. LAKE OKEECHOBEE HAS BEEN RAISED THIS STAGE MUCH BUT THE RELEASE HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN DECREASED BY THE US ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS AT A SEVENTY NINE MIKE MENTIONED WITH THE RAINY SEASON . SO WHAT WILL HAPPEN THIS RAINY SEASON? I CANNOT PREDICT WHETHER WE DECIDE BUT WHAT AFFECTS US MOST DURING THE RAINY SEASON IS REALLY BAZINE DRAIN THE DRAINAGE FROM THE BAZINE FROM THE RAIN THE CORE IS JUST AN ADDED FLOW IS EASIER AN IMMINENT HURRICANE OR STORM WE MIGHT GET MORE FLOWS IF THEY NEED WE NEED TO GET THE LAKE DOWN BUT WE DON'T ANTICIPATE THIS HAPPENING THIS YEAR BECAUSE WE MANAGED TO GET THE LAKE LOW. BUT WHAT WE HAVE TO WORRY MORE ABOUT IS BAZINE DRAINAGE FROM THE RAIN AND THIS WE CANNOT WE CANNOT STOP THIS. SO WITH THAT WITH ALL THE RAIN ,THE NUTRIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN DRAINING WITH THE RAIN WHERE WE STARTED STAFF SURVEYS FOR ALGAE TOMORROW AND WE ARE CAREFULLY WATCHING BLOOM POTENTIALS ON THE LAKE SO FAR CALOOSAHATCHEE ON THE LAKE AND THAT'S AT AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE LAKE WE'RE ABOUT A FOOT LOWER THAN WE WERE THIS TIME LAST YEAR, A LITTLE OVER A FOOT. SO I GUESS WE'RE IN A LITTLE BETTER SHAPE THIS YEAR THAN WE WERE LAST YEAR. SO HOPEFULLY THAT WILL HELP US AS WELL AS ANY OTHER ANY OTHER DISCUSSION. OK, THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. OK, ITEM TEN IS AUDIENCE RESOLUTIONS. TODAY IS PUBLIC HEARINGS. WE HAVE ORDINANCE THIRTY TO DASH TWENTY TWO MADAM CITY PLEASE READ THE TITLE ORDINANCE THIRTY TWO DASH TWENTY TWO AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BY AMENDING THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP FROM COMMERCIAL PROFESSIONAL TO SINGLE FAMILY LAND USE FOR PROPERTY DESCRIBED AS BLOCK THREE LOTTE'S EIGHT THROUGH TWENTY SEVEN CORAL POINT UNRECORDED SUBDIVISION PROPERTY LOCATED AT SIXTEEN FORTY TWO THROUGH SEVENTEEN SIXTY EIGHT CORAL POINT DRIVE PROVIDING SEVERABILITY AND EFFECTIVE DATE AGREEMENT FOR THE REQUIRED DALTRY PLANNING TEAM KONATE COORDINATOR WITH HIS PLAYING DIVISION. MY CREDENTIALS MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE. THIS IS A PRIVATELY INITIATED FEATURE LAND USE AMENDMENT THAT THE CITY SUBSEQUENTLY JOINED AFTERWARDS TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES FROM SEPI COMMERCIAL PROFESSIONAL TO THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL FUTURE LAND USE PROPERTIES LOCATED ON KORRELL POINT DRIVE . THE PROPERTIES ARE LOCATED IN SOUTHEASTERN CAPE CORAL JUST EAST OF DEL PRADO JUST NORTH OF SUPER WAL-MART WHICH THE FOLLOWING MAPS WILL OR BETTER INDICATE THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE TEN PROPERTIES IN QUESTION AGAIN JUST DIRECTLY NORTH OF THE SUPER WAL-MART DEVELOPMENT AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE AERIAL SEVERAL SCATTERED SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES ARE LOCATED NORTH AND EAST OF THE PROPERTY COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ON THE WEST AND TO THE SOUTH. THE CORAL COVE DEVELOPMENT IS LOCATED FURTHER TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST. HERE ARE THE CURRENT AND PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAPS SUBJECT AS YOU SEE HERE WOULD BE CHANGED IF THIS IS APPROVED TODAY TO THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DESIGNATION IN A KID IN YELLOW AGAIN ON THESE MAPS RED INDICATES COMMERCIAL ALSO COMMERCIAL TO THE NORTH JUST ACROSS THE STREET TO THE WEST AND TO THE SOUTH BROWNSVILLE FAMILY THE CORAL COVE DEVELOPMENT QUICK BACKGROUND TEN PROPERTIES SEVEN OF WHICH ARE DEVELOPED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN SINCE NINETEEN NINE WHICH WAS THE ORIGINAL ADOPTION OF THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP. THEY'VE STILL HAD SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL SINCE THAT TIME. THE IDEA BACK THEN WAS THAT PEOPLE WOULD EITHER ASSEMBLE THE PROPERTIES OR REZONE ON THEIR OWN OR HAVE SOMEONE SOME ANGEL INVESTOR PURCHASE THE PROPERTIES AND DEVELOP A COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. THIS AMENDMENT WAS ORIGINALLY BROUGHT FORWARD BY HABITAT FOR HUMANITY FOR ONE PROPERTY BUT NOTICING THAT THIS ISSUE OF SEVERAL PROPERTIES WITH A INCONSISTENT LAND USE AND ZONING AND THE R1 STAFF DECIDE TO EXPAND THAT TO THE TEN PROPERTIES IN QUESTION. ONE OF THE REASONS WHY THIS HASN'T DEVELOPED WITH COMMERCIAL PROPERTY IS THAT A WALL SEPARATES THESE PROPERTIES FROM THE WAL-MART SUPERCENTER TO THE SOUTH. WELL THIS REALLY JUST NEGATES ANY OPPORTUNITY FOR ASSEMBLAGE THROUGH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WE PERFORM ANALYSIS BY ANALYZING POLICY ONE POINT FOURTEEN WHICH REAL WHICH REVEALED THAT THESE PROPERTIES ARE VERY WEAK CANDIDATES FOR COMMERCIAL FUTURE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT TO CONCLUDE THIS AMENDMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL AT THE AT THE APRIL SIX MEETING PLANES AND A COMMISSION VOTING AMOROUSLY TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL. WE RECEIVED NO PUBLIC RESPONSE AND I'LL STAND BY FOR ANY QUESTIONS NOW PUBLIC HEARING THERE'S ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK ORDINANCE THIRTY TWO DASH TWENTY TWO PLEASE COME FORWARD . SEE A NON PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW CLOSED. IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE THIRTY TWO DAYS TWENTY TWO TO APPROVE. SECOND ANY COUNCIL DISCUSSION SEE A NON MADAM CITY CLERK PLEASE CALL THE ROLL SHEPHERD I WELL I COSDEN I GUNTUR HEYDEN LA CIXI SMUSHING CARRIED LIVE ON THE ORDINANCE THIRTY FOUR DAYS TWENTY TWO MADAM CITY CLERK PLEASE READ THE TITLE ORDINANCE THIRTY FOUR TO TWENTY TWO AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL OFFICIAL ZONING DISTRICT MAP OF ALL PROPERTY WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL BY REZONING PROPERTY DESCRIBED SLOTS TWENTY TWO THROUGH TWENTY FIVE OF L PINE MANOR AND UNRECORDED FLAT LINE IN SECTION FIVE TOWNSHIP FORTY FOUR S RANGE TWENTY FOUR LEE COUNTY FLORIDA AS ARE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN FROM GENERAL COMMERCIAL AND TO FAMILY CONSERVATION THOSE ARE THE COUNTY DESIGNATIONS TO COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR ZONE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT THIRTEEN FIFTY SIX ADELL PINE DRIVE PROVIDING SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THIS IS A QUALIFIED JUDICIAL HEARING. ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK OR PROVIDE TESTIMONY MUST BE SWORN IN. PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. DO YOU SOLEMNLY SWEAR OR AFFIRM TO TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO. THANK YOU JACK LEADING MAYOR CITY COUNCIL FOR THE RECORD TED BOYKA PRINCIPAL PLAYER WITH THE CITY'S PLAYING DIVISION THIS IS ORDINANCE THIRTY FOUR TWENTY TWO. IT'S A PROBABILITY INITIATED REZONING CASE. THE OWNER OF THIS IS HALIE PROPERTIES LLC THE LOCATION IS THIRTEEN FIFTY SIX DALE PINE DRIVE IT'S A LITTLE OVER ONE AND A QUARTER ACRES. IT'S CURRENTLY WITHIN THE URBAN SERVICES INFILL AREA AS IS WAS RECENTLY ANNEXED INTO THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL AND THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST IS A REZONE FROM TO LEE COUNTY DESIGNATION ZONING DISTRICTS WHICH ARE GENERAL COMMERCIAL AND TO FAMILY CONSERVATION TO THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR DISTRICT AREA MAP SITE IS ONE PARCEL AREA A LITTLE BIT THEY COMBINE THIS SO IF YOU'RE SEEING A COUPLE OF LOT LINES IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT. IT'S OUT ONE PARCEL. IT'S BEEN COMBINED BY THE NEW OWNER. IT'S AT THE INTERSECTION PINE ISLAND ROAD AND DALE PINE DRIVE. IT'S DEVELOPED IT WAS DEVELOPED WITH COMMERCIAL BUILDING. IT'S NOW BEEN ABANDONED OR THAT IT'S VACANT IN THAT IN THAT SENSE IT WAS ANNEXED IN THE CAPE CORAL EARLIER THIS YEAR. A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO YOU APPROVED A FEATURE LANGUAGE MAP AMENDMENT TO THE ROAD DISTRICT . IT'S PRETTY MUCH SURROUNDED BY COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH, TO THE WEST AND EXCEPT FOR A COUPLE OF SCATTERED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN THIS LITTLE STRIP OF LAND WHICH MOST OF THEM ARE STILL WITHIN UNINCORPORATED LAKE COUNTY, THERE'S EVEN COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR EXTENDS FURTHER ALONG PION ROAD. THE APPLICANT IS SEEKING THE REZONE TO DEVELOP THE PROPERTY WITH THE COMMERCIAL USE. THEY CURRENTLY HAVE A SITE PLAN THAT IS CURRENTLY WITHIN THE CITY'S REVIEW SYSTEM AND BASICALLY IT'S JUST A PENDING APPROVAL OF THIS REZONING IN ORDER FOR THIS TO BE APPROVED. THE CURRENT ZONING OF THE PROPERTY INDICATED IN THE GRAY SINCE IT'S UNINCORPORATED COUNTY ZONING IS THIS COMBINATION OF TWO ZONING ISSUES LIKE WE MENTIONED AND THEN THE PROPOSED ZONING WOULD BE THE PINK COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR DISTRICT AND YOU WOULD SEE THAT FOR THE MOST PART THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ALL SHARE SIMILAR LANGUAGE AND ZONING PER THIS MAP THERE IS ONE PARCEL THAT IS STILL WITHIN LAKE COUNTY THAT IS LOCATED TO THE EAST OF THIS PROPERTY AND THEN A COUPLE OF PROPERTIES THAT ARE SOUTH THAT ARE ALSO LOCATED WITHIN UNINCORPORATED COUNTY. WE DID OUR ANALYSIS FOR THE LAND DEVELOPER CODE. WE FOUND THAT THE PROPOSED DISTRICT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE CURRENT PLAN ROAD DISTRICT FUTURE LAND USE STAFF FINDS THAT WITH THE ZONING DISTRICT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE COMMERCIAL USES THEY'VE ACTUALLY ALREADY PROPOSED AUTO REPAIR STORE ON THIS SITE. THAT USE WILL BE CONSISTENT WITH THIS AREA AND ALSO MOST OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTY THAT IS CURRENTLY WITHIN THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL BEING THAT WE HAVE LARGE SCALE BIG BOX RETAIL CENTERS AND OTHER SORT OF GENERAL COMMERCIAL USES THAT ARE AROUND THEIR STAFF FINDS THAT THE EU'S PROPOSED AND THE USE OF ROADS IN THIS DISTRICT ARE SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU FIND WITHIN THIS STRIP ALONG PIOLíN ROAD, THE FREE ZONE WILL HELP SERVE A NEED FOR MORE COMMERCIAL LAND WITHIN THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL AT APPROPRIATE LOCATIONS. THIS DOES HAVE FRONTAGE ALONG AND AT AN INTERSECTION OF A MAJOR ARTERIAL SO WE FIND IT'LL BE SUITABLE FOR THIS COMMERCIAL USES THAT FINDS THAT GIVEN THAT YOU HAVE THE COMMERCIAL USE THERE, THERE IS A COUPLE OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS THAT ARE NEARBY. HOWEVER THERE'S ALREADY AN EXISTING AMOUNT OF COMMERCIAL THAT IF THERE IS ANY SORT OF IMPACT THE SMALL NATURE OF THIS FREE ZONE WILL BE MINIMAL COMPARED TO WHAT YOU HAVE WITH WHAT THE WAL-MART NEIGHBOR A NEIGHBORHOOD WAL-MART SUPER TARGET THAT'S ALREADY IN THAT LOCATION. WE FIND THAT THE IMPACT WON'T REALLY BE THAT MUCH THE BASED ON THE ZONING AND THE SMALL SIZE SITE YOU'RE NOT LOOKING AT MUCH IN THE WAY OF TRAFFIC IMPACTS OR NOISE IMPACTS ON THIS ZONING DISTRICT. THEN WE ALSO LOOKED AT THE SITING CRITERIA FOR THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR DISTRICT. WE FOUND THAT THE SITE IS ADJACENT TO AREAS ALREADY DEVELOPED WITH THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR ZONING DESIGNATION. WE ALSO FIND THAT IT ABUTS THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR ZONE DISTRICT TO THE SOUTH TO THE EAST THE PROPERTY IS NOT PART OF A LARGE TRACT IS ALREADY ZONED CORRIDOR ALTHOUGH STAFF KNOWS THAT THE SITE WAS RECENTLY ANNEXED IN THE CITY OF CAPE CORAL. SO THAT LIMITS THE ASSEMBLAGE OPPORTUNITIES IN THAT ASPECT. IT IS NOT OVER THREE ACRES OR MORE WHICH IS ONE OF THE SITING CRITERIA. IT'S A LITTLE OVER ONE QUARTER ACRES AS YOU MENTIONED THE PROPERTY HAS OVER ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY FRONTAGE LONG ISLAND ROAD. IT DOESN'T QUITE MEET THAT STANDARD BUT IT'S PRETTY CLOSE TO THE ONE THAT IS SOUGHT WHEN SEEKING REASON TO CORRIDOR. AND THEN LASTLY, STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED ZONE BASED ON ANALYSIS WITH OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND ALSO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AND THEN THIS IS HEARD BY THE HEARING EXAMINER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO AND SHE ALSO RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THIS REZONING AND THERE'S BEEN NO CORRESPONDENCE HERE FOR ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS.
