Indian Harbour Beach Police Department Construction Update W & J Construction, the contractor for the construction of the new Indian Harbour Beach Police Headquarters continues their work on this project. The front trusses and decking are complete. The interior framing is over 95% complete. The MEP rough-in progressing and main roof insulation board material was located and delivered to site, but TPO roof membrane/fastener shortage continues. The supplier of the TPO roof membrane has not provided a delivery date other than “sometime in July”. Interior progress on the building will be delayed due to lack of roofing materials to keep interior dry. Hanging drywall on one side of walls and insulating duct could already be in progress if building was dried in. Our contractor is working with roofer and suppliers to expedite a solution. The stucco work is near completion and glass installation for the windows has commenced. Additionally, site work, including pond over excavation and replacement, is continuing. Florida Power & Light has set the permanent power pole and the FPL site conduits are complete. The contractor is working with FPL to confirm transformer and conductor installation within the next two weeks. 3.

Pine Tree Drive and School Road Drainage Improvements You will recall in May, you approved a contract with Atlantic Development for the installation of a storm inlet at the intersection of Pine Tree Drive and School Road to collect this standing water and connect the inlet via a pipe to the existing stormwater collection system on the south side of Pine Tree Drive. Regrettably, the contractor encountered a live force main on the south side of Pine Tree Drive which prevents the connection of the drainage structure on the north side of the roadway. Based upon this evaluation, Mr. Scaldo worked with the contractor to construct an alternative of exfiltration piping on the north side of the roadway to attempt to address this drainage issue. 7/8/21 10:40 AM July 13, 2021 -4- City Manager’s Report Regular City Council Meeting 6.

This bill prohibits local governments from prohibiting Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicles. This Legislation permits local governments to regulate the operation of mobile food dispensing vehicles, except as provided for in Florida Statute, Section 509.102 (2). As a result of this legislation, the City is amending the Zoning code to allow Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicles within the B-1 General Commercial Zoning District. The B-1 Zoning District is the same zoning that provides that restaurants are a permitted use. In adopting this zoning provision, the City Council has determined that it is in the best interest of the residents of the City of Indian Harbour Beach and it is the furtherance of the public health, safety, and welfare, to formally adopt this Ordinance to regulate the operation of Mobile Food Dispensing vehicles. Ordinance No. 2021-10 is presented for a public hearing and adoption.

Background Information: At the June 8, 2021 City Council Meeting, Staff presented a proposal to amend the City’s Stormwater Utility Fund regulations to implement a rebate program for the installation of certain improvements, such as rain barrels, on private property that would prevent stormwater from rooftops from entering the Indian River Lagoon. The City Council endorsed this proposal. In an effort to prevent pollution from roof runoff, if approved, this ordinance would allow the City to encourage the installation of rain barrels to capture and store rainwater running off a rooftop. The harvested rainwater can be used immediately or stored for later use to water lawns and landscaped areas, fill ponds or fountains, or wash cars. This proposal is modeled after the City of Melbourne program that provides their residents to receive one $50 rebate for installing a new 40-gallon or larger rain barrel. City Attorney Bohne, has opined the use of stormwater utility funds as an incentive to reimburse property owners who install improvements to collect and store stormwater to prevent harmful pollutant laden stormwater from discharging to the Indian River Lagoon; serves a valid public purpose and conforms to various statutes. Ordinance No. 2021-11 is presented for a public hearing and adoption.
