J. REPORTS/CORRESPONDENCE
• CITY COMMISSION
Commissioner Lister: Excited about the short term and long term future and cooperation between the cities and
business developments. The City has been doing a lot of great things.
11/12/2014 BOC Regular Meeting
CM: There are many cities that are requesting some of the legislation regarding developing that the City has
enacted. Within the next three to six months, there will be some sizable developments and construction projects
for site plans and designs. Right now we are in the first wave of development but he predicts there will be a tidal
wave coming into the City.
Commissioner Shontz: The Boat Parade is right around the corner. It will take place on the second Saturday of
December (December 1ih this year).
V-M Hodges: Wanted to commend the CSD and staff on the Deputy Appreciation party that took place about two
week ago. She was also pleased with the turnout of the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at the Madeira Beach Morning
Market. She also attended the Bay Pine Veteran's Day ceremony that was also attended by Representative Jolly.
• CITY ATTORNEY
CA: Wanted to again bring attention that the first Special Magistrate - Code Enforcement Hearing in over a year
took place today - and one of the cases was prosecuted under the Chronic Nuisance Ordinance. The City is one of
the first to actually take these cases to prosecution. The City is now finding the best way to bring this property into
compliance with this specific property. Once all these other properties see what has happened, it will act as a
deterrent to other properties that have not been in compliance.
The second case was a standard Code Violation Case - not a chronic nuisance. The other side was represented by
an attorney but accepted the evidence that the Code Enforcement Officer presented. If the sign code violation
occurs again, it would be a fine up to $500/day.
Commissioner Poe: Commended CA as well on his fantastic prosecution of the case.
• CITY MANAGER
CM: Noted that there was a typo on the date for the Bitcoin Presentation - it will be on November 20th, not
th
November 24 . Basically the universities come to the area for the Bitcoin Bowl in St. Petersburg. From a
marketing standpoint, it would be advantageous to become the first Bitcoin City by resolution. If the Board is
comfortable with this, a resolution would be made the next week.
This weekend, another big Corn Hole tournament will take place at Archibald Park. Commissioner Lister will be
present at this event, but the CM will be out of town. Afterwards, a food truck festival will take place.
We continuously strive as a staff to restructure to make more sense of the processes in City Hall. He wants to run
that by the Board at the Workshop as well.
A second issue is the name of the Central Services Department. It is not very well-known that Central Services as a
title equates to Public Works. He just wants the title changed to increase understanding between the public and
staff at City Hall.
Commissioner Shontz: She thinks it is a great idea - the citizens know what the Public Works department is and
does.
CM: This was brought to his attention by the CC- she gets email inquiries of people not knowing who to contact
for problems such as blown over fences, storm drain backups, and even road kill issues. It is a change in title only
to help citizens know where to go and who to contact for any problems they have on the streets.
• CITYCLERK
10 I 11/12/2014 BOC Regular Meeting
CC: Noted that she had paperwork for the Bond Closing for the Commission to sign.
