C., Award of RFP and Contract for Construction and In stallation of a Generator Structure; and 7.D., RFP fo r City Attorney Professional Lega l Services, be removed from the Agenda and placed on a workshop meeting agenda. The Board consented. Commissioner We instein asked that in the December 17, 201 9, BOC Special Meeting minutes, that language be added to her motion when approv ing the grant for the pump out system and remote. That was included when making her motion. She asked that the motion include the cost of March I0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting M inutes Page 1 of 13 the grant, which was $17,873.24, and the actual cost to the City out of that amount, which was $4,468.31. [The City Clerk listened to December 17, 2019, BOC Special Meeting recording on her meeting laptop, and Commissioner Weinstein's motion did not include the language she was requesting to be added. The actual vote was, "to move forward and approve the purchase of a new pump out system for the fuel dock and remote for the existing pump out on A dock." The requested language by Commissioner Weinstein cannot be added to the motion because it was not part of the motion when made, seconded, and approved by the Board of Commissioners. Therefore, the December 17, 2019, BOC Special Meeting Minutes rsemain as presented to the Board for approval on March l 0, 2020.] Commissioner Weinstein said she wanted to make sure that the signs being referred to in Agenda Item 7. F, Approval of the purchase of banners or a permanent sign for Johns Pass Bridge, did not interfere with the signs being talked about in Agenda Item 8.

This is another first reading. City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Ordinance 2020-02 by title only. ORDINANCE NO. 2020-02 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF MADEIRA BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CITY OF MADEIRA BEACH CODE OF ORDINANCES, CHAPTER 102-SIGNS, SEC.102-1.-PURPOSE, ADDRESSING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS; SEC. 102-5. - SIGNS SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITED, ADDRESSING LIT SIGNS IN THE CONSERVATION ZONE; SEC. 102-147-SIGNS-AREA, TO CLARIFY REGULATION OF GROUND OR POLE MOUNTED SIGNS; AND SEC. 102-191. - ELECTRONIC READER March 10, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 3 of13  BOARDS, WALL, MARQUEES, CANOPY, AWNINGS AND MANSARD SIGNS, TO PROVIDE A MINIMUM SIGN STANDARD FOR SMALL FRONTAGE USES; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; AND PROVIDING FOR AN IMMEDIATE EFFECTIVE DATE. Community Development Director Linda Portal reviewed the item and explained the purpose of the ordinance. Commissioner Douthirt said that the Mayor did not do the Public Comment portion of the meeting. The Mayor said she would do that after this item. Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no public comments. Commissioner Weinstein motioned to approve Ordinance No. 2020-02, amendment to the Code of Ordinances on first reading. Commissioner Douthirt seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 4-0. 6. PUBLIC COMMENT Chuck Dillon, 529 Lillian Drive, commented on the pervious pavement item listed on the agenda. The Mayor asked the City Attorney if Mr. Dillon had to wait to comment on the item when it came up on the agenda. The City Attorney asked if they were discussing the sign item and was told no, and that they were doing the general public comment item. The City Attorney said Mr. Dillon had to wait until the item came up on the agenda, so his comments could be made part of the record for that item. Robert Preston, 425 S. Bayshore Drive, said May I st is the beginning of turtle nesting season, and there are a lot of illegal lights on buildings, garages, etc. along the beaches. He suggested that the Code Enforcement Official adjust his work schedule, so he could catch people with illegal lights and address the issues. If the enforcement started before May I st, they might be able to get it corrected before May I st • Code Enforcement cannot do anything about it during the daylight hours. Ray Kerr, 583 Johns Pass Avenue, commented that the crosswalks are fantastic during the day, but at night, it is difficult to see people crossing them because there are no lights on the crosswalks. John Hendricks, 569 Normandy Road, commented that he was disappointed that the Candidate Forum was not live streamed or recorded and put on the City's website for people to watch so they could make a more informed decision when voting. That needs to be done in the future. He said it March I 0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 4 ofl3 was his understanding that there is about to be a smear campaign on him because of a political action committee he was part ofto recall Nancy Oakley. They put cash in the treasury and did not know they could not do that. A complaint was filed against them, and he was fined $350.00 for that mistake, but that $350.00 was worth every penny to get Nancy Oakley out of office. 9. NEW BUSINESS A. Pay increase for Charter Officers - Robert Daniels, City Manager City Manager Robert Daniels explained that the evaluation process had started sometime in October, and the evaluations have been submitted. Two Charter Officers have already received a cost of living increase in October, and a merit increase is due. Since this is the Commission that did their evaluation, he would like for them to consider giving the Charter Officers a raise over and above what the general employees have received. The reason is that they attended all the meetings. The Charter Officers and Department Directors are required to be at the meetings, but the general employees are not. He would like to stay competitive so they would not want to work someplace else. There needs to be continuity in the staff because they must work together. The City's auditor today had stressed the need for them to keep continuity. The revolving door changing people around does not work well for the City any longer, so that is why he wrote the memo. The Commission could decide on what to do. Commissioner Douthirt said he asked the City Manager for an average of the five Commissioners for the Charter Officers to give them a better idea of where each Charter Office stood, so they could decide if they wanted to do something today. The City Manager said the evaluation form used for the City Clerk and City Treasurer was the same for the employees and recommended changing that next year and use one from a professional organization to rank them better. Out of 27 points, the average for the City Clerk is 13.95, and the average for the Finance Director/Treasurer is 19. 7. Commissioner Douthirt asked if they wanted to discuss the item at a workshop or discuss it at the meeting. He is not in favor of giving an increase more than what the employees receive. Commissioner Hodges said since it dealt with money, it should go to a workshop. Commissioner Douthirt said the only negative going to a workshop is that a completely different Board would be considering the raises, and they did not do the evaluations. Although they would have access to the evaluations, they would not have worked with them. He would go with it either way. Commissioner Weinstein agreed with taking it to a workshop. Mayor Black opened to public comment. Patrice Pucci, the attorney representing Clara VanBlargan, 695 Central Avenue, Saint Petersburg, received permission from the City Attorney to speak directly to the Commission. She raised an issue with the Sunshine Laws and referenced an Attorney General Opinion, 93-90, regarding evaluations. It specifically prohibited individuals from putting together their written comments, not in public, and then making them available to the other decision-makers in the personnel files, March I 0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page S of13 which happened in this process and put in the public records. She understands that each individual did their evaluations and put them in Ms. VanBlargan's personnel file. There were decisions made on her performance. They are talking about a compilation because Mr. Daniels identified a compilation of the points for Ms. VanBlargan, and that had not been discussed in public. They feel there was a violation of the way the evaluations were done this year. The content of the evaluations is also a concern. She has written to the City Attorney, and Ms. VanBlargan has responded to this. The content of some of the evaluations, specifically from Mayor Black and Commissioner Weinstein, are retaliatory against Ms. VanBlargan for claims she had raised previously here to the Board and raised in letters to the City Attorney of retaliation and discrimination. There are things brought up that are not based on the job description. For example, Mayor Black gave a O bringing Ms. Vanblargan's numbers down and stating that her work area is not organized. The job description does not say her work area had to be organized. There is nothing in Mayor Black's explanation that says why that has anything to do with the efficiencies in running the City, so it is identified as O to bring those numbers down, but there are no facts alleged to support that. Mayor Black also raised the issue of absenteeism and tardiness. Ms. Vanblargan is a salaried employee, and it is not based on the hours that she works. There is no reference in the evaluation of her being tardy to anything specifically that she is required to be at. The Mayor brings up again the issue with the election process that was resolved at a previous Board of Commissioners meeting, but she gives her a 0, which brings down her numbers. She talks about issues associated, which she claims is poor judgment, with having to do with errors in the minutes. Mayor Black stopped Attorney Pucci and said her time was up. Attorney Pucci said she would then move on to Commissioner Weinstein and Commissioner Weinstein took the opportunity in her evaluation to lower the numbers of Ms. VanBlargan. Mayor Black stopped Attorney Pucci again and said her time was up. Steve Kochick, 1530 I Second Street E, said there had been a turnover in personnel, not because of the quality of the people hired, but because the Board could not manipulate them. That has been a problem for many years. The employees take the brunt of the infectiveness of the Board. The Board needs to do their job and let the professionals do their job. Hopefully, after the next election, they will have people on the Board qualified and able to work in the best interest of the City, and not for a few people that tell them what to say and what to do. John Hendricks, 569 Normandy Road, yielded his time to Ms. Pucci. Commissioner Douthirt said they voted about a year or so ago they could not pass the time. Vice Mayor Hodges motioned to place the pay increase for Charter Officers item on the next workshop agenda. Commissioner Douthirt seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Mayor Black ''YES" March I 0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 6 of13  The motion carried 4-0. B. Appointment of Bid Review Committee- Clara VanBlargan, City Clerk City Clerk Clara VanBlargan said there is one regular member vacancy and one alternate member vacancy on the Bid Review Committee. The term of the regular member vacancy is a partial term expiring on Sept. 30, 2020. The term of the alternate member vacancy expires on September 30, 2022. Diane Kost and Glen S. Gordan both applied to serve on the Bid Review Committee. The City Clerk gave each Commissioner a ballot to write their choices down, the first choice for the regular member, and the second choice for the alternate member. She read the choices of each Commissioner and said the vote was a tie. The City Attorney said the Board could vote on each position. Commissioner Douthirt motioned to appoint Diane Kost to serve as the regular member. Commissioner Weinstein seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "NO" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 3-1. Commissioner Douthirt motioned to appoint Glen Gordon to serve as the alternate member. Commissioner Weinstein seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "NO" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 3-1. C. Ordinance 2020-04, Amendment to Fees Ordinance - 1st Reading - Walt Pierce, Finance Director City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Ordinance 2020-04 by title only. ORDINANCE 2020-04 March 10, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 13  AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF MADEIRA BEACH, PINELLAS COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING ORDINANCE 2019-06, THE FEES AND COLLECTIONS PROCEDURES, PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT, PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND PROVIDING FOR AN IMMEDIATE EFFECTIVE DATE. Finance Director Walt Pierce reviewed the item. Commissioner Weinstein, referencing p.29 of 30, said she thought they had agreed that when making changes, they would round the numbers. Director Pierce said he did not recall discussing that. Commissioner Weinstein said the thought might have been that they consider rounding off for the next budget period. The City Manager said, at the Marina, they account for different levels of taxes. When they rent out space, the sales tax charged is different from the sales tax charged for the purchase of items. It comes out to an even amount with the sales tax. He could get that verified before going to second reading. Mayor Black opened to public comment. Robert Preston, 425 S. Bayshore Drive, said they missed the opening to public comment on the previous item, and when the meeting started, the order of the meeting was not followed. The City Attorney is disconnected from what is happening on the dais. They have a Mayor who gives the Clerk O's, who, after three years, still cannot run the meeting. Run the meetings like they are supposed to run and get the attorney to pay attention to what is going on in the meeting so that the meetings could be run properly. Commissioner Douthirt motioned to approve Ordinance 2020-04, amendment to the fees ordinance, after the first reading. Vice Mayor Hodges seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 4-0. D. Resolution 2020-02, Reduction of Marine Speed Limit on Crystal Island - Robert Daniels, City Manager City Manager Robert Daniels said after the approval of the resolution, he would have the ordinance for the resolution on the workshop meeting agenda changing to a slow speed minimum wake zone outside the channel. The first reading of the ordinance will be prepared for the regular meeting in April. The resolution will be sent to FWC (Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission). This is the first step in the process. In the summer, they will be able to put the signs up. March I 0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 8 of13 Mayor Black opened to public comment. Ray Kerr, 583 Johns Pass Avenue, commended the City Manager for handing this and said the Sheriff's Department told him that they could not enforce anything without an ordinance. FWC can enforce it if the ordinance is in place. Commissioner Douthirt motioned to approve Resolution 2020-02, reduction of the marine speed limit in the water off Crystal Island. Commissioner Weinstein seconded the motion. Mayor Black asked the City Clerk to call the roll. The City Clerk said she first needed to read the title of the resolution into the record. City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Resolution 2020-02 by title only. RESOLUTION 2020-02 A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FOR THE CITY OF MADEIRA BEACH, PINELLAS COUNTY, FLORIDA, REQUESTING THE REDUCTION OF THE MARINE SPEED LIMIT ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF CRYSTAL ISLAND NEAR THE INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY. The City Clerk said she needed to read the titles before any discussion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 4-0. E. Resolution 2020-03, FY 2020 Mid-Year Budget Amendment - Walt Pierce, Finance Director City Clerk Clara VanBlargan read Resolution 2020-03 by title only. RESOLUTION 2020-03 A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FOR THE CITY OF MADEIRA BEACH, PINELLAS COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2020 (BEGINNING OCTOBER 1, 2019 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2020) BY INCREASING THE GENERAL FUND, BUILDING, AND STORMWATER FUND BUDGETARY APPROPRIATIONS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. March I 0, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 9 ofl3 Finance Director Walt Pierce explained Exhibit A to Resolution 2020-03, proposed budget amendments. Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no public comments. Commissioner Weinstein motioned to approve Resolution 2020-03, mid-year budget amendment for FY 2020 for the period October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020. Commissioner Douthirt seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 4-0. F. PUBLIC HEARING to consider a request by Madeira Beach Development for Alcoholic Beverage Use Permit # ADP 2020-02, for a 2COP with stated intent to sell liquor, beer and wine by drink or in sealed containers for consumption on premises of Slow Roasted located at 209 Boardwalk PL E, Madeira Beach 33708 - Linda Portal, Community Development Director City Attorney Ralf Brookes administered the oath to Community Development Director Linda Portal, who was the only one to say they would be speaking. He asked each Commissioner to disclose any ex parte communication they might have had with the applicant. Each Commissioner said they had no communication with the applicant. Community Development Director Linda Portal reviewed the item and read the five conditions for approval. Commissioner Weinstein said the permit application showed the address of the business as 209 Boardwalk PL E., and the letter from the owner of the property said he was the owner of 212 Boardwalk PL E., Johns Pass Village. The City Attorney administered the oath to the applicant. Bagriel Magiera, Saint Petersburg, explained that the address of the property is 212 Boardwalk PL E, Johns Pass Village. Commissioner Weinstein said that in one place it states that consumption is strictly on the premises, and then another place it states restaurant and package store, which to her means you can buy the alcohol and leave the premises with it. Director Portal said they have to include that because it is part of the state's definition and explained. March 10, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 10 of13 Mayor Black opened to public comment. There were no public comments. Commissioner Weinstein motioned to approve the request by Madeira Beach Development for Alcoholic Beverage Use Permit# ABP 2020-02, for a 2COP with stated intent to sell liquor, beer and wine by drink or in sealed containers for consumption on premises of Slow Roasted located at 212 Boardwalk Place East, Johns Pass Village. Vice Mayor Hodges seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 4-0. G. Support the use pervious pavement and commit to implementing it into the roadway and drainage improvement projects for Area 3 (Parsley Dr. and Marguerite Dr.) & S (129th Ave and 131st Ave.) if it gets approved by the Regional Committee - Jamie Ahrens, Public Works Director Public Works Director Jamie Ahrens reviewed the item and recommended that the Board support them using the pervious pavement. Mayor Black opened to public comment. Chuck Dillon, 529 Lillian Drive, commented why he recommended not supporting the use of the pervious pavement. He said they would need a second street sweeper to keep up with the ongoing maintenance of pervious pavement. Director Ahrens said an additional street sweeper would not be needed to maintain the pervious pavement. Guy Critelli, 13025 Pelican Lane, commented against the use of the pervious pavement. He wondered why Pelican Lane was not on the list to be repaired and told about the garbage problem on Pelican Lane and said he hoped the City would do something about it. Robert Preston, 425 S. Bayshore Drive, said it was up to City on what to choose, and if choosing the pervious concrete, there would be continued maintenance required, and another street sweeper would be needed. Helen Price, 13319 Boca Ciega Avenue, commented in favor of using the pervious pavement. She said there is a reason the State of Florida is willing to give towns like Madeira Beach millions of dollars to use pervious pavement and asked that each Commission find out why. It is a much greener way to build a road. She would like the Board not just to base the decision on that it requires maintenance. Commissioner Douthirt said he had issues with the pervious pavement. The sweeper could clean down the streets, but an hour later, the sand and the grass clippings blown out in the street will fill in the holes. A street sweeper running 24 hours, seven days a week, will not keep the streets clean. On windy days, the holes will fill back in. He does not understand using the pervious pavement on the islands. March 10, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 11 of13 Commissioner Weinstein commented against using the previous pavement. The areas around the pavement by the contractors are not acceptable. Maybe when SWFWMD started it, they initially thought it would be more environmentally good for all the different communities. She did not think it works for Madeira Beach, and she is not in favor of using the asphalt. She asked Director Ahrens why he was so in favor of using it, besides it being environmentally good. Director Ahrens explained. The City Manager explained it was a policy decision. Commissioner Weinstein motioned to approve going with the asphalt pavement at an estimated project cost of $4,490,790, without cooperative funding, and to not use pervious pavement. Commissioner Douthirt seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: Commissioner Weinstein "YES" Commissioner Douthirt "YES" Vice Mayor Hodges "NO" Mayor Black "YES" The motion carried 3-1. 10.

B. City Attorney No report. C. City Manager The City Manager commented on the Coronavirus and what the City is doing to protect its employees and the public that comes in. They are coming up with contingency plans, and the Governor has declared an emergency order treating the virus as a disaster. They want to be prepared as a City to address for whatever happens, which he explained. March 10, 2020, BOC Regular Meeting Minutes Page 12 of13 The City Manager reported on the Madeira Beach Academy that has been going on and said another one would be held tomorrow night. D.
