DAIS LOG REVIEW In accordance with the Board ofCommissioners Policy Handbook the Dais Log Review is provided to update and explain any item that is presented on the Board of Commission Dais Log. The Dais Log is created when items are completed for presentation after the distribution of the packets but before the meetings. Items can only be placed on the Dais Log by City Manager approval. 5. PUBLIC COMMENT Public participation is encouraged. Ifyou are addressing the Commission, step to the podium and state your name and address for the record. Please limit your comments to three (3) minutes and do not include any topic that is on the agenda. Public comment on agenda items will be allowed when they come up. Mayor Black opened the meeting to public comment and the City Attorney read the Civility Pledge and asked that everyone be civil and kind. He said there was no requirement for public comment. If somebody violated the Civility Pledge, is disrespectful or causes a personal attack, they will forfeit the remainder of their three minutes for that public comment period. John Hendricks, 569 Normandy Road, commented that when the Commission ran for office, they promised respect, integrity, open government, and civility. The findings released from the Florida Commission on Ethics on December 7th regarding the complaint filed against Commissioner Oakley were against her. It was recommended that she pay a $5,000 fme, and there be a public censure and a public reprimand. Commissioner Oakley violated the promises she made when running for office and violated the trust of the residents of Madeira Beach. Because of that, Commissioner Oakley should resign and if not, she should be removed from office and another December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 2 of14 Commissioner be appointed to serve until the March election. He said according to one of the charter amendments just passed that the Board put on the ballot, Madeira Beach may be on the hook to pay Commissioner Oakley's fines and legal fees. Mr. Hendricks said to Commissioner Oakley that she had been found guilty and it was time to step down. At the request of Mayor Black, City Attorney Ralf Brookes explained the appeal process for Commissioner Oakley and said that it is only at the recommended stage and not the final stage. The City does not get into the process at this point, but when there is a final order, the City can review the other issues that are raised about attorney fees and penalties. Under the Charter, the City does not pay any penalties, but there is an issue whether legal fees would be reimbursed. Doug Andrews, 90 141 st A venue, commented on spending of taxpayer funds. He said in an email he received that was sent to him and to the Commission on September 21 st it was stated that the forensic audit in its entirety would be completed early to mid-October and would be available for public consumption at that time. It is December 11 th and that has not happened. Why spend $50,000 on an audit and not have the results. Mr. Andrews said for a recent employee grievance hearing, the City hired four attorneys, using taxpayer funds, to battle a young woman with no legal experience and he would like to know how much money was spent on that. He said he holds in his hand, a final judgement from the State of Florida against former City Manager Derryl O'Neal. He was stealing money from the City while he was here. He asked why an employee found guilty of stealing from the City in a State investigative ethics violation still has a job with the City when an employee was fired because of an uncollaborated rumor that happened at a bar one night. 6.

There is language in the ordinance allowing those in place to remain until May 6, 2019. The City Attorney said it is June 11, 2019 for flutter signs. Director Portal said they would give notice to the community letting them know the City will be enforcing the sign code. Director Portal responded to questions and comments by the Board. Mayor Black opened to public comment. Lauree Tyner, 4996 Miramar Drive, asked if flutter signs could be limited to one per business instead of outlawing them. Doreen Moore, 13019 Boca Ciega Avenue, commented that the City has too many signs up and down the roads and that has increased the sign blight. She encouraged the Board to foster small businesses but to find a way that would work for everyone. Vice-Mayor Weinstein made a motion to adopt Ordinance 2018-14, amendment to Chapter 102- Signs, after second reading and public hearing. Commissioner Oakley seconded the motion.

Resolution 2018-24, 3-Year Union Contract - Pinellas County Professional Firefighters , IAFF Local 4966, October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2021 - Jonathan Evans, City Manager City Manager Jonathan Evans reviewed Agenda Item 8.B. and explained the following as stated in the three-year proposed contract proposal: FY 2019-FY 2021 Contract Proposal 1. A three-year contract (2018-2021) with a 3% increase in FYI 9, an increase of 1% in FY20, and an increase of 1% in FY2 l, all of which will be in addition to their ("IAFF") current step program, which is 3% annually. Additionally, the City will accept a wage reopener in the third year, 2021. a. Whereby both parties agree to discuss the findings communicated in the compensation and classification study, this provision is activated only if a 5% difference is identified as part of the compensation and classification study. b. The study is projected to be completed in FYI 9. 2. A deposit of $750 will be put into a health savings account for any fire personnel who selects the high-deductible health plan with a health savings account, for as long as the plan is offered. 3. The City has tentatively agreed to fund supplemental cancer coverage for each actively employed member of this collective bargaining unit. 4. Both holiday pay and time will remain the same. 5. Personal days will now be referred to as "Floating Holidays" to be consistent with city holidays. 6. Educational reimbursement and leave will remain the same and must be approved by the Fire Chief. 7. Upon having full staffing, educational leave will be a paid benefit for on-duty employees. 8. Bereavement leave will include aunts and uncles depending on the State Statutes definition to ensure consistency between the statutes and the existing city policy (to be determined). 9. Fire inspector verbiage will be added to the contract, as a represented employee of IAFF Local 4966. 10. Sick leave pay will remain the same. 11. A promotional policy for Driver Engineer will be added to the contract. 12. The Grievance Procedure and Arbitration form will include the new Local 4966 - Verbiage change only. December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 5 of 14 13. The City will propose childcare for fire personnel that will be at no cost to the employee, prospectively, but it will not take effect unless the establishing Ordinance is amended. 14. The contract will take effect retroactively, dating back to October 1, 2018. The City Manager said it was important to note that in their previous three-year contract the firefighters received 1% less than the general employees during that time. The City Manager responded to questions and comments by the Board. He said that currently City employees do not receive free childcare and that he would like to bring back to the Board to consider as part of the modified fees ordinance to allow for afterschool care to be afforded to all the employees and not just the firefighters, and that is his recommendation to allow for that. Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no comments made. Vice-Mayor Weinstein made a motion to adopt Resolution 2018-24, a contract between the City of Madeira Beach for the term of three years, 2018-2021, and recommended that the City Manager present modification to the fee ordinance to address item 13, as articulated. Commissioner Oakley seconded the motion. City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Resolution 2018-24 by title only. ROLL CALL: Vice-Mayor Weinstein "YES" Commissioner Oakley "YES" Commissioner Hodges "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 5-0. C. Redington Fire Services Contract - Derry! 0 'Neal, Fire Chief Fire Chief DerryI O'Neal reviewed Agenda Item 8.C. Vice-Mayor Weinstein said when discussed previously, it was said after accepting the agreement, a study would be done to find out why we started with the amount we did. The City Manager explained that if the contract is executed, staff would like to commence the process of putting out a solicitation for a firm to come in and look at the costs for providing fire suppression services here within the City of Madeira Beach as well as the contractual entities that are in partnership with the City and then bring forward what those findings are to the Board. That would be the mechanism in allowing the City to renegotiate the terms and conditions of the agreement. There are other things that the Chief is consistently watching as it relates to the fire station that is looking to be constructed north of the City in the Redington communities to provide service. It is important to execute the contract between both the entities and we may find ourselves in a situation where December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 6 of14 we can be the sole fire suppression provider for the Redington communities depending on how the conversations go with the county, Sunstar, and the other communities. After execution of the contract, more research will be done and based on his conversations with the Chief and the funding structure in place, in the event that would happen there would be more than adequate funding available to provide the services and apparatus to service those communities at no additional costs or burden to the Madeira Beach taxpayers. We want to make sure that our community is not subsidizing another community and that the full freight is being spent. In past relationship, we have been providing services, but we cannot ask for an increase when we do not have a good indication of what the costs are in providing those services. We will find out what the costs of providing the actual services. Chief O'Neal reported the status of the new fire station to be constructed. Commissioner Oakley made a motion to approve the interlocal agreements providing fire suppression and EMS services to the Redington communities. Vice-Mayor Weinstein seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Oakley "YES" Vice-Mayor Weinstein "YES" Commissioner Hodges "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 5-0. 9. NEW BUSINESS A. Ordinance 2018-16, Ordinance placing Charter Amendments on the March 12, 2019 Municipal Ballot - 1st Reading - Clara VanBlargan, City Clerk/Election Official; Ralf Brookes, City Attorney City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Ordinance 2018-16 by title only and reviewed the item. Commissioner Hodges asked if another meeting would be held to explain the amendments to the public. The City Clerk said there will be a public hearing on the ordinance on January 8, 2019 and then public forums will be scheduled. City Attorney Ralf Brookes made corrections to Charter Amendment #12, Alternative 1, on Pages 15 and 16. On page 16, #6 is crossed out and it should not be. The Civil Service Commission would like to continue doing grievance hearings the same as they do now. On Page 15, the introductory will be left in, so #6 becomes #1 and #8 will be #2. The City Attorney said the Board will be deciding on what the amendment would be to the Civil Service Commission section. There are two alternatives to consider. The Board had previously December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 14 discussed removing Charter Amendment #6, regarding the recall procedure on Page 8. He suggested that the Board delete unnecessary charter amendments to avoid voter fatigue. Mayor Black opened to public comment. Doreen Moore, Chair of the Charter Review Committee, said from the in-depth discussion on the Civil Service Commission, Commissioner Douthirt had recommended that the Civil Service Commission section be removed for further discussion. Commissioner Douthirt said when making their recommendation he will do that. Vice-Mayor Weinstein, regarding Charter Amendment #2, Section 3.5. Consecutive Term Limit, on Page 3, asked if the beginning date of March 13, 2018 was correct. The City Attorney said it should be March 13, 2019 and he will make the correction. Vice-Mayor Weinstein, regarding Charter Amendment #6, Recall, on Page 8, said if the Board decided to keep Charter Amendment #6, she would like the word "notify" replaced with a better word. Commissioner Douthirt suggested using the word "advise." The City Attorney said he will change "notify residents of' procedures... to "cross reference" procedures.... The Board consented. Vice-Mayor Weinstein, regarding Charter Amendment #7, Induction of Newly Elected Commissioners, on Page 9 of 20, said it was discussed that the adoption of the rules for Board procedures is supposed to be 90 days and not 60 days after the election. The City Attorney said he will make the correction. Vice-Mayor Weinstein, regarding Charter Amendment #11, Investigation Procedures, on Page 12, said she would like the word "state" replaced with the word "delegate." The City Attorney said he will make the change and suggested some rewording of the sentence to state, "This charter amendment would amend the section of the charter concerning investigations by the Board of Commissioners to delegate investigations into the internal affairs of the City by appointing a Charter Officer to investigate internal affairs of the City." The Board consented. Vice-Mayor Weinstein, regarding Charter Amendment 11, Citizens' Initiative Referendum Procedures, on Page 13, asked if the wording needed to be changed to make the amendment clearer. The City Attorney read the amendment aloud and made changes to the amendment. The Board consented. The Board discussed the Charter Amendments in the proposed ordinance. Commissioner Douthirt made a motion to approve Ordinance 2018-16 after first reading and to eliminate Charter Amendment 12, Option 1 and 2 until the City brought back a more in-depth study on the duties and responsibilities of the Civil Service Commission. He said the amendment could be placed on the November ballot instead of the March ballot if more time is needed to do the study. The existing language will stay as is for now. Commissioner Oakley suggested looking at the personnel manual, City charter, and the code to see what the conflicts are. The City Manager added comment. Following discussion, Commissioner Oakley seconded the motion. December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 8 of14 ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Oakley "YES" Commissioner Hodges "YES" Vice-Mayor Weinstein "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 5-0. Mayor Black commended Chair Doreen Moore and the Charter Review Committee for a tremendous job on the City charter. Commissioner Douthirt asked Doreen Moore, Chair of the Charter Review Committee, what her vision was going forward. Ms. Moore said the City charter was written in 1948 and there had not been a lot of revisions. She does not see the need for a continuation of the Charter Review Committee except for reviewing the charter again in five or ten years. It would be the responsibility of staff to ask for the review at some point in the future. Commissioner Douthirt suggested reviewing the Charter again in five years. The Board consented. B. Ordinance 2018-17, Amending Division 2. Same - Lot, Yard, Height and Other Site Area Regulations, Sec. 110-428. Side Yard of Corner Lot - Amending depth of side yard setback - 1st Reading - Linda Portal, Community Development Director City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Ordinance 2018-17 by title only. Community Development Director Linda Portal reviewed the item and explained the changes made to the ordinance based on the recommendation made when previously discussed by the Board. Commissioner Oakley said she thought that the district language on Page 1 of the ordinance would be taken out. Director Portal said she would make the change to make it the same across the board. Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no public comments. Commissioner Oakley made a motion to approve Ordinance 2018-17, amending Code of Ordinances Division 2, lot, yard, height, and other site area regulations, and Sec. 110-428, side yard of corner lot - amending depth of side yard setback, after first reading with the change of removing district out of the equation.

The responsibility of the Committee is to look at the City's operating budget and the Capital budget. If Mr. Pryor is considered for appointment to the Planning Commission, the City Attorney would need to do additional research to make sure there is. no conflict with him serving on both committees. He recommended postponing the item until the legal opinion is obtained. Commissioner Oakley asked Mr. Pryor which board he would like to serve on and Mr. Pryor suggested that he not decide until after the research. The City Attorney explained the issue of dual office holding and said a person can hold two committee positions if they are not both final decision-making positions. Since only one is a final decision-making committee, Mr. Pryor can serve on both. Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no public comments.

REPORTS/CORRESPONDENCE December 11, 2018, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 12 of14 • City Commission Vice-Mayor Weinstein reported on a Big C meeting she attended on December 5th and a Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council meeting she attended with Director Portal the day before. She announced that on December 12th at 6:00 p.m. and on December 13 th at 6:00 p.m. at City Hall there will be the second neighborhood meeting for the John's Pass Resort project. The City Manager said the meeting will be recorded and not livestreamed. Vice-Mayor Weinstein said the Board never received the video or the report of the first neighborhood meeting and she thought that was a requirement before having the second neighborhood meeting. The City Attorney said he would have to look that up in the code. There were some changes proposed for major developments, but he does not remember ifit had already been passed. He said that about the neighborhood meeting on December 12th and 13 th , Director Portal had instructed the Planning Commission not to attend the neighborhood meetings because they are supposed to base their decision on what is presented in the quasi-judicial hearing before the Planning Commission. That is the same for the City Commission. The City cannot prevent the Commission from going to the meeting however, if there are two or more Commissioners going to the meeting it must be advertised that one or more elected or appointed officials may be in attendance so there is not an inadvertent violation of the Sunshine Law. This is a meeting that the developer is supposed to conduct with the neighborhood-to co)lect information. If there is a video, the video can be watched and put into the record if the quasi- judicial hearing or ahead of time and disclosed that the video was watched. The ·City Manager explained that whenever in doubt to please call the City Manager or the City Attorney. • City Attorney • City Manager City Manager Jonathan Evans reported that staff has been getting a good flow of letters to Santa and encouraged all those watching the meeting on livestream to put their letter in the box for Santa if they have not already done so and staff will make sure the letters get to where they needed to go. • City Clerk The City Clerk announced that the Candidate qualifying period is from noon on December 12, 2018 through noon, January 11, 2019. The City Manager said for those individuals who would like to become qualified candidates he would like to have an opportunity to hold a qualified candidate forum, a workshop setting or discussion to help educate those folks as to what the expectations are with regard to filling out the paperwork and what the Clerk needs so we do not find a situation where folks violated election laws or waited until the last minute or assumed that they could walk into the Clerk's Office at 11 :59 a.m. on January 11 th and get qualified. The City Clerk explained she usually qualifies Candidates at different times during the Candidate qualifying period and asked for clarification that she needed to hold off on accepting everybody's paperwork until they attended a workshop first before getting qualified. The City Manager said that the workshop could happen after the Candidates have been qualified. 12.
