PUBLIC COMMENT (limited to 3 minutes) David Polito: Property owner in Madeira Beach for 22 years. He owns the property between The Bronze Lady and Florida Winery. The City gave Tom Powers a building permit that created a barrier that was supposed to be temporary but now Mr. Powers wants it to be permanent. The expense extends six feet past his property. It affects the public walkway and he has refused to remove it unless Mr. Polito agrees to pay half the costs for the elevator maintenance. He then presented the following questions: • How can this be if there is a fire or emergency? • How long does one have before a temporary fence before construction is completed? • People have already climbed over it, what is the liability? If left unchecked, it would negatively affect the City. He asks for the City's help since the City provided help to Mr. Tom Powers. CM: The current state of the barrier is not in code compliance, but he asks for a five minute recess and referred Mr. Polito to set up an appointment and further discuss the case with the Building Official. The Mayor agreed that after the Consent Agenda is passed to hold a five minute recess. G. CONSENT AGENDA 1.

CM: Briefly discussed the three items. The approval for Duke Energy is for the first undergrouding - all of this is in budget, this authorization just moves forward on the project. The Mayor confirmed that these funds were partly acquired through Gulf Beautification grants. The second item is for the Fireworks Bid and it is awarded to company that did it last year. However, we don't know if our annual contributor is going to donate again. He wants to award it to the $26,000 show if the contributor does donate. The contact is currently out of the country.

The third item was discussed at a 4:30 Workshop - Bill Karns, the man behind ROC Park, is going to donate a third of the cost for a Band Shell expansion. The CM and ACM are comfortable now to keep this within the budget. It may come back if they are not able to meet this.

Commissioner Poe: Believes that this item should be tabled. There have been multiple drafts and she believes that the Commission should better understand the ordinance. She made a motion to table the item, it was not seconded. Bob Cummins: Brought up the excessively high fees outlined in Section 5 of 2015-02. He has yet to hear a logical explanation. He suggests that these fees are not for revenue enhancement - charge the property owner only if the property is not in compliance. That way good property owners are not punished with violators. He thinks the ordinance should be friendlier to property owners. He has talked with his neighbors because everything is preordained and everything goes through automatically. CM: Clarified that the fees have not changed. The original fee schedule was previously passed and this ordinance does not change any of the actual fees that were previously passed.
