He announced that this was the presentation and recognition of Nancy Glasgow as Employee of the Month for August 2018. He said that he and Nancy started on the same day, did their New Hire Orientation 17 years ago, and have been kindred spirits since that time. Mr. Schofield noted that Nancy is in the DROP program while he is not. He said that Nancy has done a remarkable job for the Village over the years having worked in many capacities including the Front Line and now as a Customer Service Coordinator. He said that he could say without hesitation that during his 17 years with the Village, Nancy's work has been exemplary and she is one of the people he is very proud to be associated with for so long. Ms. Glasgow said that it was an honor for her to be nominated for this award. She thanked her supervisors, Mindy and Shannon for the honor . She also thanked the entire Customer Service team because without them she would not be sitting here. Nancy said that they are a wonderful team who she will miss when she retires. She said that it has been a wonderful 17 years adding that the Village of Wellington is like a family and is the best place to work. Mayor Gerwig said that a few years ago, the Village did not have Customer Service down pat, as they do now and there have been alot of changes. She extended kudos to Customer Service for being here in lock down through the hurricane. Mayor Gerwig said that the Front Line is the first touch that many of the residents have with city government . She extended her thanks for doing a great job. Ms. Glasgow said that the Customer Service team loves their customers and fellow employees and they want to do the best job they can. Village of Wellington Page 1 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 Council extended their thanks to Nancy and the Customer Service team. 4. 18-2355 RECOGNITION OF NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE WEEK Mr. Schofield announced that it is also Customer Service Recognition Week, and all the staff who provide customer service were present. Ms Quickel said that Council knows many of these people from the last hurricane. She said that Nancy works with all of these people who do an absolutely amazing job. She noted that Customer Service reps were present from the Building Department, Utilities, General Customer Service, Parks & Recreation and the Public Works Department. At this time, Council and the Customer Service teams recessed to the Council Chambers to receive their recognitions and for photographs. 5. REVIEW OF COUNCIL AGENDA Mr. Schofield presented the agenda for the September 25, 2018 Regular Wellington Council Meeting for review. He advised Council that there had been an item that had originally been included in the agenda for relocating a bridle trail for Stay Sail Farms, which was postponed because it had not been before the Equestrian Preserve Committee. He noted it would be sent to that committee prior to it being heard by Council. He believed that a special meeting had been scheduled for the Equestrian Preserve Committee to hear that item. A. 18-2342 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR WELLINGTON COUNCIL MEETING OF AUGUST 14, 2018 Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was the approval of the Minutes of the Regular Wellington Council Meeting of August 14, 2018. He advised Council to forward any corrections, changes, etc. to Ms . Nubin who would make the changes. B. 18-2088 AUTHORIZATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT FOR THE WELLINGTON REGIONAL HOSPITAL WATER SERVICE MODIFICATIONS Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was authorization to award a contract to B & B Underground Construction, Inc. for the Wellington Regional Hospital Water Service Modifications for $64,069.00. He said that this was to add a second meter to the hospital. He said that the original system was installed when it was part of Palm Beach County; however, the Village requires loop systems and this does Village of Wellington Page 2 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 that and provides alternative service. Ms. LaRocque pointed out that there had been no bypass installed, but she did not know why. She said that they will go ahead and install a bypass and they will ensure that service to the hospital was not interrupted. Councilman McGovern asked if this was something that was never needed before or discovered before. Ms. LaRocque said that she could not speak as to what happened prior to her, but when she came on board she looked at all of the Village's large meter accounts and wanted to know when they were last changed and found out that this one was at its useful life of about 10 years. She said she went out there and looked and found it could not be replaced without taking the hospital out of service so this project was put into the capital project. Mayor Gerwig said that this was a secondary service line. In response, Ms. LaRocque said that this was the primary service line to the hospital . She explained that they will be building a new meter and will take the old one out of service, put in a piece of pipe so it is a bypass. She said if they should have to change out the meter in the future, they will just use the bypass without taking anyone out of service. Mayor Gerwig asked if the Village had any other large users with this issue. Ms. LaRocque said that Wellington Regional was their largest, and there are no other situations like this one. She said that if they have to change out a meter in a large apartment complex, they will notify them that they will be out of service for a short period; however, they couldn ’t do that with the hospital. Mayor Gerwig asked if the cost for this was coming from the Utility budget. Ms. LaRocque said that the cost of this was coming out of the Village's capital budget. C. 18-2177 AUTHORIZATION TO AWARD A TASK ORDER TO PROVIDE ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES FOR THE TROPOS TELEMETRY SYSTEM REPLACEMENT - PHASE 2 SYSTEM RECONFIGURATION STUDY Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was authorization to approve a task order to Hillers Electrical Engineering, Inc., to provide engineering consulting services for the TROPOS Telemetry System Replacement - Phase 2 System Reconfiguration Study in the amount of $64,487.00. He explained that about half of the Village's routers are sitting on FPL poles who no longer wants them there so the Village needs to move them. Village of Wellington Page 3 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 Councilman McGovern asked if this could not be worked out with FPL. Ms. LaRocque thought doing this was not a bad thing and that it was better for the Village to be in control of its own destiny. She said that they believed by doing this propagation study they can actually reduce the number of sites they have which will save the Village some money. She said doing this is a worthwhile endeavor as it will tell them exactly where the communication poles and equipment are needed. Ms. LaRocque said that she tried working it out with FPL, but it is a liability issue for them. She said that there is additional weight that will be put on the poles due to the new equipment and they don't feel they can handle the additional windloading issue. Mayor Gerwig questioned what poles these are located on. Ms. LaRocque said that they are found on light poles, mast arms, etc . noting that the boxes that they see with two small antennas sticking up are routers. She said that there are 300 across the Village and the system is at its usable life and the equipment is no longer supported and they have to replace them. She noted that they had moved forward with their design, but when they started the design and reached out to FPL they said they needed to reassess it and came back and said that a propagation study was needed. Councilman McGovern asked how spending the $65,000 ultimately saves money. In response, Ms. LaRocque said that ultimately, the Village will have a lease agreement for each of those poles and the cost for each of those lease agreements would escalate if they were allowed to stay on those poles, so it is not free. She said that the Village cannot control how much FPL will charge. Mr. Barnes believed that Council was referring to the small wireless noting that this item was not related to small wireless. He said that since small wireless has been coming in, the Village has been fortunate enough to have them come in to ask questions and submit initial applications and were willing to work with the Village to accommodate some of our requirements. However, Ms. LaRocque has specific requirements for utility and public works. With regard to savings, he said that this started around 2008 when they remetered and changed the whole system. He said that the original intent at that time was not the utility and infrastructure but they were trying to do an overall Wi-Fi that handled building and code compliance. Since that time they have changed and it is just serving the utility and infrastructure needs that they have for Scala and the utility and public works . Specifically as a matter of practice, the number of points required would be reduced so they would be saving money. Village of Wellington Page 4 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 Ms. LaRocque said this tells the Village exactly how many are needed, there are less routers and they no longer have the lease cost. She noted that they won't be on FPL poles and will be on independent poles where they could possibly use existing Wellington facilities, light poles, can put up new towers at lift stations, and things like that. She said that they will save money on infrastructure because they will know exactly how much they need and that they will also not have lease payments to FPL. Councilman McGovern noted the two phases: Phase 1 was completed with regard to the radios, and Phase 2 was to be about the routers. He said that they were now spending $65,000 on a study on Phase 2. Ms. LaRocque said that they were moving forward with Phase 2 assuming the routers could be put on the existing locations. She said that once that was commenced,, FPL said no that they needed to evaluate it and then came back and said they did not want them on their poles. She said that their consultant came back and said that the Village could save alot of money if they did a propagation study because they did not believe they needed 300, and the only way to determine that was to do this study. Mayor Gerwig asked what the height requirement was. In response, Ms . LaRocque said that 30 feet was desirable although they could do 25 feet, but the higher the better. Councilman McGovern asked how much work this study would entail. Ms. LaRocque said that it is mostly done by a specialty company that specializes in microwave communications noting there are very few companies that can do this type of propagation as it is very technical. Mr. Barnes said that for those who had been here during the approval of the tower behind Park Avenue BBQ, will remember the painstaking process they went through which included three hours of testimony noting that it was a propagation study that they were explaining which is the type of effort that is going into this except it is being used for the Scala. Ms. LaRocque added that it is alot of back programming information, alot of simulated models, and they have to do communication as well as doing some field analysis. She reiterated that she felt it was money well spent. D. 18-2290 AUTHORIZATION TO UTILIZE A GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (GSA) CONTRACT, AS A BASIS FOR PRICING, FOR THE PURCHASE OF A NEW WEBSITE, DESIGN, CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND HOSTING SERVICE Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was authorization to Village of Wellington Page 5 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 utilize GSA contract GS-35F-0124U, as a basis for pricing, for the purchase of a new website, design, content management system, and hosting service from CivicPlus in the amount of $34,010. He said that as the Village's website needs to be updated for security and aesthetic purposes, they were at a point where they were going to spend a significant amount of money on the current one so they are looking at a newer one. Mr. Schofield said that Mr. Silliman and his staff have found the CivicPlus folks with a one-time update of $34,000 and the annual maintenance fee for it is just under $6,000. He said that the current cost to update the existing site would be $20,000 and there is a $7,600 annual recurring maintenance fee. Mr. Schofield said that there is about a $1,600 per year cost savings and there is better security and usability of the website. Mr. Silliman stated that from the time they first changed websites to the current vendor, they have had more growing pains and such so that it has taken more staff time to keep it going. During the course of those years, they have been looking at some vendors and this has risen to the top for alot of municipalities throughout the state and country. He said that they vetted them out; worked through the contract and overall year to year it will save the Village money. He said that their hosting and their service have come back that it is stellar. Councilman McGovern asked if they were getting a whole new website with a new design. Mr. Silliman said that it was an opportunity for Council to work with Communications to make those changes they would like. He said that their price includes going to what is presently there to whatever new template and design they are going to move over. He said that the contract includes that there is 500 pages that they are going to move over. He said that staff will be able to do quality control to make sure everything is fine and they will then figure out a go live date. Mayor Gerwig asked if the look and feel of the website would change. In response, Mr. Silliman indicated that it could. Mayor Gerwig then asked if this design would work better on handheld devices. Mr. Silliman responded affirmatively. He said that some of the pain points that IT sees will go away plus the technology is better so it is more responsive. Councilman Napoleone asked Mr. Silliman if the Village have been able to track any comments from the users over the years indicating problems that they can now fix going forward. Mr. Silliman believed that most of those problems were addressed. Ms. Quickel concurred with Mr. Silliman. Mayor Gerwig said if she found problems she would let IT know, but she Village of Wellington Page 6 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 indicated that she hadn't found any in a while. Mr. Silliman said that they are getting info on a bi-weekly basis to find problems which is one of the reasons they like this new website. Councilman McGovern asked what the annual maintenance entailed and why was it necessary to spend that money every year. Mr. Silliman said that the company will do their hosting up in the Cloud, they can fix any bugs that are found, make any program changes, and any time the Village contacts them that there is a problem, they will be there to assist. Mayor Gerwig asked if this had any relation to the new program that the Village is working on. Mr. Silliman said that they would tie this into it. E.. 18-2349 AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT TO INTEGRATE THE VILLAGE OF WELLINGTON’S VOICE PERMITS AND VOICE UTILITY SYSTEM WITH TYLER TECHNOLOGIES MUNIS AND ENERGOV PRODUCTS Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was authorization to enter into an agreement with Selectron Technologies, Inc., to integrate the existing Village of Wellington’s VoicePermits and VoiceUtility system, with Tyler Technologies (new ERP) in the amount of $59,500. He explained that the Village uses a voice system to schedule permit inspections, get inspections, utility service and there is a myriad of things that can be done. He said that they were only converting the current system so it will work with Tyler Technologies, the new ERP system. Councilman Napoleone asked if this was a one-time conversion fee. Mr. Silliman said that this was a one-time conversion/integration fee in addition to the inclusion of annual maintenance/support for software and upgrades. He explained that this system does two things: (1) it is a brand new stand-alone build that will only work with Tyler and it will get the Village going and ensure that everything is integrated; and (2) Selectron is going to a new platform, which is called Relay Platform. He said that normally they will do an upcharge noting that his staff has done an excellent job negotiating that out and there is cost savings for the Village on that. This does utility and building explaining that the utility does all the utility payments and the building is for scheduling. Councilwoman Siskind asked if Selectron was the only authorized vendor who could provide service. Mr. Silliman noted that there are other vendors, but Selectron has the best pricing, given the Village the best use of IVR that they have had over the years, and no one could meet the additional price breaks. Councilman McGovern asked if this had already been approved in the money for the ERP. Mr. Quickel explained that this was not included. Village of Wellington Page 7 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 She said that they found this when they were looking at the Building Department converting into Tyler as they use two other programs so this has to do with the programs that they specifically use for routing and all of their implementation. She said that when they originally looked at it, they weren't clear if those were going to be implemented into a different Tyler program. She further stated that they decided not to do that, as they were happier with the options with the current programs. Ms. Quickel said that this allows the Village to continue to operate as they presently are doing which is very efficient for the Building Department. She said that those were decisions they could only make as they reviewed it as part of their transition process. Mayor Gerwig said that this was part of the contingency package as they expected to run into bumps along the way during such a major conversion. Ms. Quickel responded affirmatively. F. 18-2282 RESOLUTION NO. R2018-49 (GLENSPUR FARMS VACATION) A RESOLUTION OF WELLINGTON, FLORIDA’S COUNCIL, TO VACATE A 0.0765 ACRE PORTION OF A 20-FOOT WIDE WATER MAIN EASEMENT NO LONGER NEEDED BECAUSE OF A PARTIAL RELOCATION OF SAID EASEMANT AND ASSOCIATED WATER LINE; PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4150 SOUTH ROAD (GLENSPUR FARMS AKA TONKAWA FARMS), MORE SPECIFICALLY DESCRIBED HEREIN; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was approval of Resolution No. R2018-49 to abandon/vacate a 0.765 acre portion of a 20-foot wide water easement within Glenspur Farms (AKA Tonkawa Farms). He explained that the applicant is proposing an outdoor kitchen and they have to relocate a water line. He directed Council to page 155 explaining that if they move the water line, they will take it out of the existing easement and provide an easement over the new line. He said that the Utility Department is happy with this. Mr. Schofield said that the line is there, the easement was just being relocated. He said that they are dedicating a new part and abandoning the old part, which is straightforward. Mr. Basehart said that he had nothing to add. There was no Council discussion. G. 18-2352 SECOND PUBLIC HEARING TO ADOPT THE FY 2018/2019 MILLAGE RATE AND ANNUAL BUDGET FOR WELLINGTON I. RESOLUTION NO. R2018-52 (MILLAGE RATE) Village of Wellington Page 8 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 A RESOLUTION OF WELLINGTON, FLORIDA’S COUNCIL ADOPTING THE TAX LEVY AND MILLAGE RATE FOR WELLINGTON FOR THE FISCAL YEAR COMMENCING OCTOBER 1, 2018, AND ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2019; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. II. RESOLUTION NO. R2018-53 (WELLINGTON BUDGET) A RESOLUTION OF WELLINGTON, FLORIDA’S COUNCIL ADOPTING A BUDGET FOR THE VILLAGE OF WELLINGTON FOR THE FISCAL YEAR COMMENCING OCTOBER 1, 2018, AND ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2019; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was the approval of the proposed Fiscal Year 2018/2019 millage rate, operating and capital budget including balances brought forward. This is the second public hearing on the proposed budget and the corresponding ad valorem millage rate in accordance with the Wellington Charter and F.S. Chapter 200.065. He indicated that Ms. Quickel and her staff were present to address this item. Mayor Gerwig asked if it was the same presentation they had reviewed two weeks ago. Ms. Quickel explained that the presentation was revised to reflect the 2.50 millage rate that was approved at the First Public Hearing. She said that there were also some minor revisions that they would review at the Council Meeting and would present the presentation. H. 18-2285 ORDINANCE NO. 2018-09 (FY 2018/2019 ANNUAL CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT ELEMENT UPDATE OF WELLINGTON’S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN) AN ORDINANCE OF WELLINGTON, FLORIDA’S COUNCIL, UPDATING THE WELLINGTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BY INCORPORATING THE ANNUAL REVIEW AND REVISIONS TO THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ELEMENT TO REFLECT THE 2018/2019 THROUGH 2023/2024 FIVE YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN FOR LEVEL OF SERVICE PROJECTS; AND UPDATING THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PALM BEACH COUNTY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT SCHEDULE; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT AND SEVERABILITY; AUTHORIZING THE MANAGER TO UPDATE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Schofield introduced the agenda item. This was the a pproval on Second Reading Ordinance No. 2018-09 updating the Capital Improvement Element (CIE) Schedule for Level of Service Improvements for Fiscal Years 2018/2019 to 2023/2024 (Table CIE 1) and the School District of Palm Beach County Capital Improvement Schedule (Table CIE 2) located in the Capital Improvement Element of Wellington's Comprehensive Plan. He explained that this is really not an update to the Comprehensive Plan, but something the Village of Wellington Page 9 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 Village is required to do annually to adopt the School District Capital Improvement Schedule. He said that this only deals with levels of service projects so there is a slightly amended ordinance that only addresses those projects. Mr. Basehart explained that this is basically a recording exercise. He said that having realized that they had included items in there that were not level of service items, they were removed. There was no Council discussion. 6. WORKSHOP None 7. ATTORNEY'S COMMENTS Ms. Cohen reported that the Pine Tree Water Control District served the Village with a complaint. She said that the complaint was seeking declaratory and injunctive relief to require the Village to continue to maintain the roadways within the Pine Tree District. She said that they will be preparing a response and/or contracting with outside counsel and will respond appropriately. Mayor Gerwig asked if the Village was covered by their insurance for this. Ms. Cohen indicated that she did not believe that the Village was covered as they were seeking declaratory and injunctive relief. VIce Mayor Drahos asked who would be handling this. In response, Ms . Cohen said that she was speaking with a law firm to see if they were going to be able to handle the matter. She said, if necessary, the Legal staff will handle it because she believed the issues were really legal issues not so much factual issues. Ms. Cohen said if that is the case, she believed that she could prepare the answers, defenses and get the case at issue. Vice Mayor Drahos asked who was representing Pine Tree. Ms. Cohen stated that Mr. Phillip Harris was representing Pine Tree. Ms. Cohen advised Council that if this was something they needed to discuss further, such a discussion would be more appropriate in a Shade Session. Vice Mayor Drahos said he had some questions relating to a positon that was taken at a recent Code Enforcement Hearing on the grass that was growing in Polo West and Polo North. Ms. Cohen explained that Polo took the position that they were redeveloping the golf course into a Village of Wellington Page 10 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 course that is appropriate for something known as "Target Golf." She said that as she understood it, it involves larger balls and a course where there is alot of rough. She said that you have lanes that the ball goes in and there is a little bit of a rough area. She said that even when they look at the photographs of properly developed Target golf courses, you don't see the kinds of weeds and overgrowth and vegetation that was apparent in the Code Enforcement proceeding. Ms. Cohen said that she believed that they would be able to reconfigure it for that type of golf, but they can't allow the vegetation to get into the condition of its current state. Vice Mayor Drahos asked if they were given some time to comply to the violation. Ms. Cohen believed it was the next meeting in October. Mr. Basehart added that it was around October 15, 2018. Mr. Schofield explained how the process works. He said that at the first hearing, the Special Magistrate will make a determination that a violation either exists or doesn't exist and no fines go into place. He said if the Special Magistrate finds that a violation exists, they are required to give the person time to fix it. Mr. Schofield said that the Special Magistrate did give them time and if the violation is still in place at the time of the next hearing, then a fine will be imposed and certified. Ms. Cohen pointed out that the compliance date is October, but the hearing to impose any fines for non-compliance if necessary would be in November. Mayor Gerwig asked if the Village's code allowed Target Golf, and does the Village have any description how this type of golf course will be maintained differently. Mr. Basehart explained that when the Village's Code was adopted it did not contemplate that game and this is something new. Council indicated that they had not heard anything about Target Golf. Mr. Schofield said that the question becomes not whether Target Golf or regular golf, it is listed as an OSR golf course. He said that regardless of what Target golf is, it requires maintenance and rough does not mean overgrown weeds. He said that when he plays golf, he expects the rough to be a planted area that is maintained in a slightly higher grass level than the fairways. Mayor Gerwig said that the Village does not need a code revision to allow for Target Golf or a description, they just know what maintenance looks like and what it doesn't. Mr. Basehart said that was correct. He said that staff encouraged them to come in and show them a plan for what they intended to do so they can talk about those kinds of things. Vice Mayor Drahos asked why they were given such a long time to Village of Wellington Page 11 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 comply. Ms. Cohen said that the Magistrate is required to give them a reasonable amount of time and the next time that is set before a Magistrate would be on that date in October. She believed that was what was requested and ordered by the Magistrate. Ms. Cohen said that she recognized that it was a problem for the residents. She said that she knew they were having similar issues on the north course and other areas and the Village is addressing it in the best way they can. Councilman McGovern believed that they are all starting to hear about this from residents in all of those communities. With regard to reasonable time, it wasn't that they were asking someone to construct something or take something down, this was just mowing the lawn. He believed that was the frustration they were hearing. The hope was that the Legal Office was using every means to bring them to this properly. Vice Mayor Drahos said he wanted to bring this up at the Council Meeting because he was hearing more and more talk about it and it was becoming more and more frustrating. He believed if they brought it out in the open and people start hearing some of the arguments, it will help to accelerate the process. Mayor Gerwig stated that they were required to give that type of notice . Councilman McGovern said that the notice was already given. Ms. Cohen said that the Magistrate was required to give them a required amount of time. Vice Mayor Drahos believed that did not mean the owner doesn't have to do anything until the date he needs to comply. Mayor Gerwig said that the restaurant was no longer open because of the golf couse. Mr. Bsehart explained that because the golf course is closed, the Village required the restaurant to be shut down. Mayor Gerwig asked if the restaurant could reopen once Target Golf starts up. Vice Mayor Drahos advised Mr. Basehart that before he answered Mayor Gerwig's question, he wanted to talk to Ms. Cohen more about it to discuss whether Target Golf even has any merit. Mr. Schofield said that the Code states that the restaurant is an accessory use to the golf course. He said that in order for the golf course to be open, a golf course, as we understand it, has to be there and playable. Mr. Schofield said that he has never heard of Target Golf and he will look at it. He said that he believed that neither he, Mr. Basehart or Ms. Cohen were prepared to tell Council what Target Golf is. He said until the hearing, he had never heard of it. Ms. Cohen said that she had not heard of Target Golf before. She said Village of Wellington Page 12 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 that a quick legal search brought up some golf courses that actually feature Target Golf. She said that she is not knowledgeable about that particular game, but if it is a form of golf, and it seems that it would meet the requirements of golf/OSR open space under the PUD Master Plan. Vice Mayor Drahos said that if the Village takes that position on a legal proceeding, he really wants to have an opportunity for them to sit and think about that and make sure they confirm that was their position. He said that as he sits here, it seemed illogical to him. Mayor Gerwig asked if Target Golf required the same elements as Frisbee Golf because people have said that Frisbee Golf is sort of a valid form of golf. She wondered if there is some flexibility that both forms could be played on the course. She asked Ms. Cohen to advise her of what she finds in her research. Councilman McGovern did not think you could play both Frisbee Golf and Target Golf on the same course. Mr. Barnes added that Frisbee Golf is not conducted on a golf course; however, the Village's courses have soccer ball, which is conducted on the actual greens and fairways, but Frisbee Golf is played on a non -golf course facility. Mayor Gerwig asked about soccer ball being played on the golf course. He said that he did not know if it qualified under the Village's definition, but it is played on the golf course. Councilman McGovern said that Mr. Barnes is familiar with one place where that is done. Mr. Barnes said that was correct. 8. MANAGER COMMENTS Mr. Schofield said he had received a request from the Florida League of Cities asking for Shannon LaRocque to serve on the Oversight Committee for the 1% sales tax. He said that in order for him to send that letter, he needs consensus from Council. Mayor Gerwig said that the Village uses its Parks & Recreation Board, but this is a committee for those cities that don't use their own oversight committees. She felt that Ms. LaRocque's expertise would be good. Council gave their consensus to have Ms. LaRocque serve on the committee. Mr. Schofield said that he spoke with Mr. Radcliffe earlier in the day. He said Mr. Radcliffe asked if he would sit on a Transportation Alternative Fee Committee where only one elected official serves on because they Village of Wellington Page 13 Village Council Workshop Action Summary - Final September 24, 2018 have to chair it. Council gave their consensus to have Mr. Schofield sit on the committee. Mayor Gerwig said that the Florida League of Cities has a document that has information on all of the amendments. She advised Council to view the document on line as it is updated and easy for them to access. Mayor Gerwig said that the League encourages the cities to cover Amendment 1. She said that it is the only constitutional amendment on the ballot that was put on by the Florida Legislature. She said that there are talking points available, and the Village is able to inform the residents, but they are not able to persuade them. She wants them to make sure that people understand the questions and they are able to describe it properly. Mayor Gerwig said that the Florida Tax Watch came out on Amendment 1 saying that it just complicates the tax scheme that is already pretty complicated and it is more of a shift than a break. 9. COUNCIL COMMENTS Mayor Gerwig said that she had asked staff for the amount that was spent in 2010 for the pool rehab and she received what they had, but it included an internal link that she did not have access to. Mr. Schofield said that he would get the info in that link. Mayor Gerwig said that she also asked about the number of days it was out of service. Mr. Barnes said that the project started in September, but the pool was closed from the November 2009 and it was reopened on Memorial Day 2010. He noted that the Grand Opening was held in July. Mayor Gerwig asked if there was any information why it was turned into a competition pool. Mr. Barnes explained that it was actually a competition pool before that was used by both the high schools. He said that they were not able to meet the variety of the meets that they currently do in terms of the size of the pool. He said that the renovation was able to accommodate a greater number of both long course and short course meets. He said that the other intent of the major renovation project was to meet minimum requirements set forth by the Health Department as far as circulation and water exchange and those type of things. Mayor Gerwig asked if the depth was not a part of that. Mr. Barnes said that allowed them to do a greater number of types of meets, but there were meets held before with the existing depth that they had. Mayor Gerwig said that was why she asked if the Village had any documentation on that as she wasn't on Council then. She wondered what target they had been trying to hit. Mr. Barnes said it was to maximize the number of meets that the high schools were to have there. Mayor Gerwig said that was when the high dive was removed. Mr. Barnes said that was correct.

Mayor Gerwig said that she received a question today about the closed circuit channels. She said that in past years, they used to show the parade and it was shown for months. She said that someone asked if the Village would ever want to show any polo matches or things like that on the Village's channel. She said she didn't know if something like that had ever been done. Mr. Schofield indicated that they had that conversation before and they were told that any advertising content would have to be removed because the Village can't advertise. Mr. Schofield said if it was only a polo match that was free of advertisements, he didn't know why they would not consider it. He said Mayor Gerwig could have them chat with him or Mr. Barnes and they would be happy to go through it. Vice Mayor Drahos said that might encourage people to go out and watch the events. Councilman Napoleone added that it also might make them watch the channel. With regard to the previous showings of the parade, Mr. Barnes said that the Town Crier used to provide the video to the Village. He said that they had some drone footage in the past that was provided by the Chamber to the Village. 10.
