ACTION ITEMS a. After-the-Fact Fee Waiver Request Applicant James owner of Solid Rock Construction Group requested relief from an after- the-fact permit penalty associated with work performed before permit issuance. Commission reviewed the circumstances surrounding work that began prior to permit issuance, including the permit application process and applicable penalties. After discussion, the Commission found that the violation resulted from an administrative error rather than an intentional attempt to circumvent the permitting process and supported reducing the assessed penalty. Motion: Commissioner Arendt moved Commissioner Morgan-Johnson seconded and the motion carried 4-0 to approve the reduction of after-the-fact fees in the amount of $4,435.70 for permit activities associated with 521 Bayview Place. b. Quasi-Judicial Hearing - Grand Tree Removal Request- 610 N. Bay Boulevard City Attorney Pam Chicone opened the quasi-judicial hearing regarding the Grand Tree Removal Request for 610 North Bay Boulevard and provided an overview of quasi-judicial procedures. She explained that the Commission’s decision must be based on competent and substantial evidence presented through testimony and documentation. Attorney Chicone advised that all testimony must be factual, and expert testimony, written reports, and fact- based personal observations may be considered by the Commission. Attorney Chicone requested disclosure of any conflicts of interest or ex-parte communications. No conflicts of interest or ex-parte communications were disclosed by the Commission members or Mayor. All individuals providing testimony were sworn in by City Clerk Amber LaRowe Applicant Matthew Kempson, representing 610 North Bay LLC, provided testimony regarding the tree located at 610 North Bay Boulevard. Mr. Kempson stated that after purchasing the property, the owner identified a sea hibiscus tree growing into a power line and contacted Florida Power & Light (FPL) regarding the hazard. He stated that FPL trimmed the tree and later advised that the trimming caused significant damage and recommended removal. He stated that an ISA Certified Arborist was contacted and determined the tree posed an unacceptable risk and recommended removal. He advised that a contractor was scheduled to remove the tree; however, the City issued a stop work order because the contractor did not have the arborist documentation available onsite.  July 14, 2026 Anna Maria City Commission Page 3 of 5 Mr. Kempson provided photographs showing the condition of the tree before FPL trimming, after FPL trimming, and its current condition. He stated that the tree was no longer providing meaningful shade, had been significantly damaged, and requested permission to remove the remaining portion of the tree. He also stated that the property owner was willing to install native landscaping and work with the City on replacement options. The Commission questioned the applicant regarding the timing of the arborist report, the removal process, and additional cuts visible on the tree Attorney Chicone advised that the hazardous tree exemption requires documentation supporting the hazard determination prior to removal work. She noted that the arborist report submitted was dated after photographs showing damage had already occurred. Mr. Kempson stated that an earlier arborist letter had been provided but required corrections and additional documentation. He acknowledged responsibility for ensuring the documentation was complete. Public Works Manager Dean Jones was sworn in and provided testimony regarding the condition of the tree. Mr. Jones stated that the tree had been a significant and attractive tree and that Public Works had recently performed maintenance in the area. He stated that, based on his observations, the tree damage appeared to have occurred from removal activity using equipment and was not caused solely by FPL trimming. The Commission discussed potential remedies, including: 1. Replacement of the removed Grand Tree with a comparable tree meeting City requirement; or 2. Payment into the City’s tree fund in an amount equivalent to the cost of replacement. Attorney Chicone explained that staff would need to provide a formal recommendation regarding replacement costs, including tree cost, staff time, and other associated expenses, before the Commission could make a final determination. Commission discussed the difficulty of replacing a 29-inch DBH tree with a comparable specimen and the associated costs. Mr. Jones estimated that a comparable native replacement tree could cost at least $5,000, while Commissioners noted that costs for larger mature trees could be significantly higher. Mr. Kempson stated that he would prefer consideration of younger native trees that could establish and grow over time but remained open to working with the City regarding the final landscaping solution Motion: Commissioner McMullen moved Commissioner Arendt seconded, and the motion carried 4-0 to continue consideration of mitigation/remedy requirements to the next City Commission meeting pending staff recommendations.  July 14, 2026 Anna Maria City Commission Page 4 of 5 Motion: Commissioner McMullen moved Commissioner Arendt seconded and the motion carried 4-0 to authorize removal of the remaining portions of the tree located at 610 North Bay Boulevard. c. Approval of a Change Order with Tangerine Group - added Mayor Short presented a change order for installation and later removal of protective matting along the pier walkway during demolition and remediation work. Motion: Commissioner McMullen moved Commissioner Morgan-Johnson seconded and the motion carried 4-0 to approve the Change Work Order with Tangerine Group for installation and later removal of protective matting along the pier walkway. 6. CAPITAL PROJECTS UPDATE – MAYOR/JONES Public Works Manager Dean Jones provided an update on several ongoing capital improvement projects. He reported that installation of the electrical panel platform at the City Pier is underway and that the electrical equipment has been relocated to the side of the structure to preserve public views. Protective fencing has been installed around the work area and a gate will be added as construction progresses. Mr. Jones also announced that the Tangerine Group completed construction of the new seawall the previous week. Final site restoration, including seeding of disturbed areas, is underway. He commended both Tangerine Group and Tampa Bay Marine for their quality of work and stated that the projects have progressed without significant issues. 7.

The current agreement expires September 30, 2026. The proposed agreement provides for continued law enforcement services from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027.

MANATEE COUNTY, FLORIDA By: Board of County Commissioners By:_____________________________ Chairperson ATTEST: Angelina Colonneso, Clerk of the Circuit Court By: _______________________ Deputy Clerk CITY OF ANNA MARIA, FLORIDA By:_____________________________ Mayor 7  City of Anna Maria Agenda Meeting Date: 7/23/2026 Presenter/Department: City Planner Ashley Austin Title: Fee Waiver Request for 764 North Shore Dr Background Information: Property owners Angela and Robert Knight hired a General Contractor to obtain a building permit to make improvements to their home located at 764 North Shore Drive. A permit was issued and work began in November of 2025. During an inspection in March of 2026, the City’s inspector observed work performed that exceeded the scope of the issued permit resulting in a Stop Work Order. The unpermitted work was removed within several days and as such, the Stop Work Order was lifted. The permitted improvements have since passed all inspections and the project was successfully completed in June of 2026. After parting ways with the original contractor, the Knights have hired a new General Contractor to properly obtain a permit for the work that was previously removed. In an effort to recoup some of the financial loss suffered because of the original contractor’s missteps, the Knights are requesting a building permit fee waiver in the amount of $1,111.94 (Exhibit A). According to the City’s Fee Schedule, fees may be waived by the City Commission.
