Commissioner Douthirt secondedthe motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt “YES” Commissioner Andrews “YES” Vice—MayorHodges “YES” Commissioner Weinstein “YES” Mayor Black “YES” The motion carried 5-0. 8. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Ordinance 2019-06, Amended fees and Collections Procedures Manual 2"“ Reading — & Public Hearing and incorporate a Gulf of Mexico Commercial Fishing Fleet Discount Linda Portal, Community Development Director & Other Department — Directors Director Pierce said a phase change was made under parking on page 29 under letter “J.” Director Hatch explained the fee changes concerning sand volleyball court rentals, road closures, and table games. Commissioner Douthirt asked if the alcohol event management fee was legal and that the portion about the City being able to serve alcohol at events be reworded so it is clearer. Director Hatch noted there will be a policy set forth that does not allow for people to bring in their own alcohol or gamble at the table games. He then clari?ed why Staff chose the fee amounts as they did for the rec-center. Commissioner Douthirt indicated he would like to look at the serving of alcohol at events on a case by case basis. Director Hatch pointed out that would contradict the special events application process. Mr. Evans reminded Council of the inherent risk and liability associated with the City selling alcohol. He recommended contracting that service out to a third party and having revenue share. Attorney Ralf Brookes suggested leaving the fees in for serving alcohol at events to help address any potential impacts of alcohol being served. June 11, 2019, BOC Regular Meeting Page 3 of 16 Commissioner Andrews indicated the additional fee may deter good events from taking place in Madeira Beach. He stated it may be good to discuss this item further at a workshop. Commissioner Weinstein commented she is in favor of the alcohol event management fee. Director Portal explained the process staff goes through when someone requests to serve alcohol at an event. Mayor Black stated she does not like the idea of charging money for the card games. Commissioner Douthirt pointed out that there should be more clari?cation on the fuel discounts, so it is clear to people that they only get one discount and not two. Mr. Evans responded that discounts can be compounded but cannot exceed 20 cents per gallon. Mr. Evans explained the reasons why they are asking for the Gulf of Mexico Commercial Fishing Fleet Discount, that it would bring more business back to Madeira Beach. Commissioner Douthirt expressed concerns that this is not included in the fee ordinance. Discussions were made on wording and how to approve this Item. It was noted that staff would like this Item approved before the budget since it would affect revenue. Commissioner Douthirt shared his frustration with the process that they have gone through and that this was not taken care of earlier. Commissioner Weinstein explained this is a working document that needs to be put into effect, so they can collect fees. Commissioner Douthirt asked how they will know, who is and who is not a resident for the table game fees. Director Hatch responded that the participant form would indicate if someone is a resident or not. He also explained that the City would also help with some advertising if desired and they will not charge table fees for the free lessons on Wednesdays. Commissioner Weinstein suggested there should be a language change for special event fees. Mayor Black opened up the meeting for public comment on this Item. Helen Price, 13319 Boca Ciega Avenue, commented that the forensic investigation of the Marina which cost $50,000 concluded in discounts that cost the City to lose over $300,000 during the period of that investigation. She indicated that it was unbelievable that they believed that offering a discount of 20-30 cents per gallon would bring in $50,000 - $70,000 before the end of the 2019 ?scal year. June 11, 2019, BOC Regular Meeting Page 4 of 16 Robert Preston, 425 South Bay Shore Drive, stated that the City should not be involved with sewing alcohol because the liability is too great. He added that the event fees should cover the clean-up and so the alcohol fee would be a double charge. He then expressed frustration that Dave Marsicano was no longer working for the City because he had done a good job. John Hendricks, 569 Nonnandy Road, stated the City did not lose $500,000, but made $142,000, but feels Council has put a spin on it to get their way and he is ashamed of the members of Council for doing that. Mayor Black closed the public comment portion of the meeting. Commissioner Weinstein moved to approve Ordinance 2019-06 Amending the fees and collections procedures manual on second reading and adoption. No second was made and the Item was tabled. B.

Proposed “Snack Shack” Request for Qualification (RFQ) — Jonathan Evans, City Manager Mr. Evans introduced the Item and explained why staff is suggesting an RFQ rather than a request for proposal (RFP). Attorney Brookes noted they could add in a proposed lease amount to the RFQif they desired. He then shared they have already received letters from people interested in concession rights. He also indicated that the current tenants are on a month to month contract and have agreed to do that while they go through RFQS. Mr. Evans clari?ed that the current concessioners are interested in a two-year agreement and that Council can move forward with an extension or the RFQprocess. Vice-Mayor Hodges stated she feels they should go ahead with the two-year extension. Attorney Brookes noted that a lawyer indicated that he believed the current tenant’s contract was up and if they were to move forward with the extension that they could ?le a lawsuit. Mr. Evans explained why they are asking for an RF Q and not an RFP. Attorney Brookes indicated that they could go out for the RF Q and choose the current concessioners which would help them avoid a lawsuit. June 11, 2019, BOC Regular Meeting Page 10 of 16 Mr. Evans pointed out that in the event that there is a superrnajority vote by the Board they can waive procurement procedures. Mayor Black opened the meeting up for public comments. Dalton Kaleen (Snack Shack owner) stated he believed they are in good standing with the contract and would like to move forward with renewing another two-year contract. He also noted that last year an email was sent in April and met with Staff in May and that in the contract it indicates that the City should have noti?ed them if they were in default. Mr. Evans noted that much of the Snack Shack equipment is owned by United Parks Service, so if another vender was chosen their equipment would either need to be moved or purchased which may result in a gap in service. Alan Kahana (Snack Shack owner) shared the substantial investment they have put into concession equipment. He noted that the date they signed it may not have been the actual approval date since National Parks had to approve it ?rst before it was of?cial. Commissioner Andrews indicated he would like to keep the United Parks Service in the Snack Shack. Commissioner Weinstein stated that she feels they have done a great job but does not want to get into a potential legal hassle if they do not go through an RFQ. Vice-Mayor Hodges shared that she would like to move forward with a two-year agreement with the United Parks Service. Ms. Price commented that she does not understand why they want to do an RF Q and feels that the people who have run it for the last ?ve years would be the most quali?ed. Attorney Brookes indicated that on page six it addresses reduced fees for things such as red tide, hurricane, or oil spill. He added that he agrees that March 3, 2014 may not have been the actual effective date of the policy and the date may in fact be later. Commissioner Weinstein asked if someone could take legal action if they do not go out for RFQ. Attorney Brookes responded that anyone could take anything to court, but they would move to dismiss it. He shared that he feels they could defend that if they wanted to move forward with a two-year agreement. Vice-Mayor Hodges motioned to grant the two-year extension for the “Snack Shack” on their agreement. Ms. Weinstein seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt “YES” Commissioner Andrews “YES” June 11, 2019, BOC Regular Meeting Page 11 of 16 Vice-Mayor Hodges “YES” Commissioner Weinstein “YES” Mayor Black “YES” The motion carried 5-0. F. Resolution 2019-09, Halting the Annual Funding of the Emergency Reserve within Committed Fund Balance per City’s Adopted Fund Balance Policy Walt Pierce, — Finance Director Director Pierce introduced Resolution 2019-09. Mr. Evans stated that staff would like to take the available cash as an organization and put it into one reserve fund which can be saved for any sort of catastrophe in the community. He noted if they take the 50-cent increase, which will generate $400,000 with the $200,000 that this fund would generate, they would have $600,000 that could help to pay for the 15—million-dollarbank note. Director Pierce noted that they will also have the unrestricted reserve fund which they can rely on in emergencies. Commissioner Douthirt asked what they will do with the interest. Director Pierce responded that interest would be put back into the unreserved general fund. Mr. Evans suggested Council consider having the interest go to continue growing that fund so that it can be used as a mechanism to replenish it, if those funds ever have to be used. Director Pierce indicated that he would prefer having the interest go toward balancing the budget. Commissioner Andrews expressed some concern with moving money around before they do the budget. Mayor Black called for any public comments and none were offered.

Helen Price, 13319 Boca Ciega Avenue, commented that she carmot believe a 2.5-million-dollar entity needs a full-time ?nancial analysis. She indicated that the money would be better spent on replacing or ?x the so?ware. John Hendricks, 569 Normandy Road, stated that they need a professional Marina Director. Commissioner Weinstein indicated that she did not feel they need a Marina Director, but they need a person with government experience and training since government accounting is different. She clari?ed that she feels they need to take Director Pierce’s recommendation. Director Pierce reiterated that they need someone to help people at the Marina that knows governmental accounting.
