Through: Scott Morgan, City Manager

From: Christy Fischer, AICP, Planning Director

Date: March 2, 2021

SUBJECT

Annexation of two parcels located west of Columbia Lane and I-95 and north of US 192.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-01, annexing the 34.52-acre property west of Columbia Lane and I-95 and north of US 192.

FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact is the associated advertising and notification costs with annexing. The funds for this advertisement is approximately $1,250 and notification costs comes from the City Clerk’s advertising budget for annexations and have already been included through the end of fiscal year.

5A - 1 DISCUSSION

Properties to be Annexed: (Depicted in the aerial below) The owner of the two subject parcels located west of , west of Columbia Lane, and north of US 192 submitted an application for annexation. Since the properties are contiguous to the city limits and the owner wants to have the properties ready to connect to city sewer and water, our codes require that to obtain urban services, the sites must be annexed into our city.

Property Information No address assigned Owners/Applicant William P. Turnbaugh Acreage 34.52 acres Existing Use of north site Single-Family Residential (S-F Res.), Contractor’s storage yard/office Existing Use of south site Vacant, undeveloped land abutting U.S. 192 Proposed Use of Property S-F Res., Industrial uses, undeveloped commercial abutting U.S. 192

The two parcels shown outlined in red are requesting annexation.

SJP Parkway

5A - 2 Municipal Services — The annexation meets the intent of the Florida Statutes which is to have cities annex adjacent properties and serve them with municipal services. The following describes the existing and future conditions. Transportation: The properties will be able to use US 192 and Columbia Lane for access when either site is developed. However, Columbia Lane, a County road, may be required to be paved.

Utilities: City water lines already exist along the east side of Columbia Lane with a few hydrants located along the street from north to south. City sewer is being extended across the highway to Columbia Lane also.

Stormwater Management: The property when developed will be required to meet the minimum stormwater level of service standards for St. Johns River Water Management District.

Fire: These properties will continue to be served by Brevard County Fire.

Law Enforcement: The West Melbourne Police Department will serve the property instead of Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.

In reviewing proposed voluntary annexations, the City assesses whether the requests meet the minimum requirements as directed by the State of Florida and the City’s Land Development Regulations (LDR). The following sections provide staff’s analysis of these items.

Connection to City water and/or sewer:

During the mid-1990’s, the City enacted an ordinance which required that properties adjacent to the city limits requesting connection to city utilities (water and/or sewer) annex into the city. As stated previously, there are no immediate development plans for these two properties but the applicant desires that these properties have more intense future land use and zoning than it currently has and the immediate ability connect to utilities.

Consistency with Florida Statutes:

a) Section 171.042. Prerequisites to Annexation. Staff Comments—The annexation request is consistent with the provisions of Section 171.042(2), F.S. since urban services are already located on the west side of Interstate 95 in the area to be annexed and the extension of either water or sewer services can feasibly be brought to this site. Brevard County and all affected property owners have been notified of the City’s intent to annex in the subject properties as required by the Florida Statutes.

b) Section 171.044. Voluntary Annexation. Staff Comments — The subject annexation is voluntary and the applicant filed the applications. The City Attorney assisted with the review that the property is located adjacent to the city limits and the ordinance contains property that is reasonably compact. Annexation of the subject property is a logical extension of current city limits.

5A - 3 Consistency with West Melbourne Land Development Regulations (LDR):

a) LDR Section 66-222. Creation of Enclaves. Staff Comments—The annexation of these properties does not result in the creation of an enclave since the site is immediately adjacent to property to the north that is in our city limits and does not create pockets of unincorporated areas. The City Attorney reviews the issue of enclaves prior to staff providing a recommendation.

b) LDR Section 66-227. Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Staff Comments—Newly annexed properties must receive a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This request for annexation is accompanied by a comprehensive plan map amendment in the January 19, 2021 City Council agenda packet and the Commercial, Industrial and Low Density Residential land use designations will be considered for this site.

c) LDR Section 66-228. Assignment of zoning classification. Staff Comments—The subject property will be assigned a zoning district simultaneously with a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This will also be heard on January 19, 2021 and the same zoning as the other sites to the west (GTWY-I, Gateway Interchange) will be considered for this site.

Public Notice – The annexation was advertised in the newspaper and notices were sent to property owners within 500 feet and all legal criteria for announcing the annexation have been met. Some of the property owners in Brandywine posted comments on NextDoor Neighbor, however, this property is not adjacent to that subdivision and will not have a direct impact on those properties.

RECOMMENDATION

Motion to approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-01, annexing the property west of I-95 and Columbia Lane and north of US 192.

The subject properties are in the process of being annexed and the future land use designation on two parcels is to be changed from Residential Two (RES-2) in the County to Industrial (IND) and Commercial (COM) in the City. The property at 4910 Suapres Lane has an existing single-family residence and a contractors storage yard/office (industrial type uses).

Background Information— This Future Land Use designation request was submitted to the State Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and other State agencies, a change to the for their review. The applicant is requesting to change 34.52 acres of property from Brevard County Residential Two (RES-2) to City of West Melbourne Industrial, (IND) and Commercial (COM), and as a separate action to rezone the properties from Brevard County AU (Agriculture Use) to City of West Melbourne Light-Industrial and Warehousing (M-1), Low Density Residential (LD-RES) and Commercial Parkway (C-P). Staff had suggested that a small portion of the site at the north end remain residential to offer a buffer to the residential designated property to the north. However, Council and the applicant discussed this proposal and determined to have all of the north half be designated industrial with a binding development agreement. The binding development agreement is part of the rezoning staff report for Council to review and approve.

The proposed map amendment is a large scale comprehensive plan map amendment because the property is more than ten (10) acres. In February, staff received emails and letters that there were no comments from State agencies in regards to negative impacts to State resources.

5B - 3 Future Land Use Designation to be changed on the property indicated below

The request is to change the RES-2 designation to IND and COM

Surrounding Properties

Environmental Site Data—

Flood Zone: This property is in Flood Zone AE, as determined by the 100-year base flood elevation and development will have to comply with flood compensation requirements.

Natural Resources: The impact on surrounding natural resources will be assessed when the site is developed but the property at 4910 Suapres Lane has already been cleared and developed.

Staff Analysis—

There are two types of amendments to a comprehensive plan: small scale and large scale. The proposed amendment is considered large scale because the size of the property on the future land use map is more than ten (10) acres. The Planning and Zoning Board, as the City’s Local Planning Agency (163.3174 F.S.), held its public hearing and deliberation hearing on the request and provided a recommendation to the City Council. The Council will ultimately determine whether to approve or deny the request.

5B - 4 Initially staff had recommended that there be a buffer at the north edge of 4910 Suapres Lane (17.63 acres) from the adjacent single family designated site to the north. However, staff’s recommendation of approximately 0.85 acres to be left with a residential designation to buffer potential single family to the north (approx. 659’ by 56’) will instead be a requirement in a binding development plan. Usually industrial areas are not immediately adjacent to single-family residential and the 0.85 acres as non-building area would provide land as a transition between the industrial to single-family residential. The single family house that exists at 4910 Suapres Lane is not in this 0.85 acre sliver but rather roughly in the middle of the parcel below it.

This leaves the 16.89 acres along US 192 to be designated commercial as indicated below.

COM

Development Potential for Large Scale Amendment:

The State requires that when a local government analyzes concurrency for a future land use amendment, the analysis be based on the most intense use allowed in the proposed future land use category. This maximum is not usually reflective of what can or cannot be built on the site after all other features are accommodated such as stormwater, parking, and buildings, but helps local governments in determining a worst case scenario for future planning of infrastructure.

5B - 5 Maximum Intensity/Density per Maximum Development Potential Future Land Use Designation FLU RES – 2 in the County 69 Dwelling units 2 dwelling units per 34.52 acres = (Residential Two)

IND (Industrial in the City) on 575,972 square feet 0.75 Floor Area Ratio * 17.63 the north property COM (Commercial in the City) 367,864 square feet 0.5 Floor Area Ratio * 16.89 acres on the south property

The Commercial future land use designation allows professional office, personal services, convenience stores, and other businesses. The industrial future land use designation allows manufacturing, wholesaling, storage, and distribution/shipping facilities.

The above table shows the marked difference between the existing “Residential Two” that could be built in the County for the entire 34.52 acres of 69 dwelling units and the potential 943,836 square feet of commercial and industrial that could be built with the more intense City future land use designations. However, as with other properties along the periphery of the City, the County’s future land use designation has not changed in many years and the property is underdeveloped given its proximity to the new interchange on I-95 and the St. Johns Heritage Parkway. Although a residential developer could create only a 69-lot subdivision but it is more likely that the developer would ask for a significant increase in density more in the order of 5 dwelling units per acre which would yield 172 dwelling units.

The impact of potential commercial and industrial uses if the properties are in the city limits is more than if a residential subdivision were created in the unincorporated County. However, as with other comprehensive plan map amendment analyses, the potential 943,836 square feet would most likely not be built due to parking and stormwater requirements for businesses. Realistically the typical lot coverage would be 311,864 square feet or a building coverage of 33% on the 34.52 acres which would result in less demand for water and sewer, and fewer trips. Although the State of Florida no longer requires transportation concurrency for development, the potential daily trip generation for industrial would be 362 trips per day and 1401 trips per day for commercial. A residential subdivision with 69 lots could generate 660 average daily trips, less than the transportation impacts from the commercial and industrial uses.

The City’s Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Element contains a policy which states that future land use map amendments such as this, shall be evaluated upon location, adjacent land use, proposed development, buffering of non-like uses, and infrastructure capacity of water, sewer, and solid waste. The potential impact to infrastructure capacity and adjacent land uses were already mentioned, however, it is important to note from a land use compatibility perspective, that there would be negligible difference between residential development and commercial and industrial development on this property. As stated previously, the fact that this property is less than half a mile to US 192, to I-95, and to the St. Johns Heritage Parkway makes the site poised to develop with more intense uses than strictly a residential subdivision.

Adequate Public Services/Facilities:

The following narrative summarizes the maximum infrastructure and service impacts related to capacity of public facilities and preliminary concurrency evaluation of facility capacity. This type of analysis is

5B - 6 required by Florida Statutes for comprehensive plan amendments, but does not reserve actual water or sewer capacity, only that there is still sufficient capacity to serve the property at maximum build out.

Water and sewer concurrency - City staff consulted with the Public Works about the use of the site as commercial and industrial if developed under these respective future land use designations. The comparison of development in County’s RES-2 land use designations (current FLU) versus the “Commercial” and “Industrial” designations (proposed FLU) reveals that overall demand for water, sewer and solid waste are higher but still acceptable for urban intensities.

Other Public Services—

Transportation: Primary Access: St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192

Staff has estimated traffic generation rates of 660 Average Daily Trips (ADT) for 69 units of single family housing and 1764 ADT for the land area developed with commercial and industrial uses.

This property currently has a finger like extension of property to connect to Columbia Lane (a County dirt road). Improvements needed to Columbia Lane or US 192 will be assessed by the governing agencies, Brevard County and FDOT, with input by the City. Since the St Johns Heritage Parkway is newly completed there are very few traffic counts available at this time on this arterial road and the current low traffic volume indicates there is sufficient capacity in the 4-lane limited access arterial to accommodate this development and others along the parkway.

Utilities: The property owner desires to connect to city water and sewer with the proposed development. There is capacity in our systems to accommodate the potential development of commercial, industrial and a small amount of residential units on 34.52 acres.

Stormwater: Any development of a site requires that stormwater runoff from roads, sidewalks, roofs, etc. be kept on the developed site and not impact surrounding uses.

Fire & Police: Brevard County Fire and Rescue provides fire protection and emergency services. City of West Melbourne Police will serve the property.

School: Since no part of the property could have single-family development, there is no need for the Brevard Public Schools concurrency analysis with this future land use map amendment.

City Code Citation: Land Development Regulations Section 66-520. Amendment process

State Requirements:

The following criteria have been reviewed to determine the appropriateness of the land use amendment request:

Florida Statutes Ch. 163, pt. II: The request is consistent with the provisions of Ch. 163, pt. II, F.S. which contain the criteria for required items needed for comprehensive plan future land use map amendments and sending these to the State and local agencies.

5B - 7 Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan:

According to the land development regulations (LDR) Section 66-518, comprehensive plan amendments must be in compliance with the City’s comprehensive plan and state requirements. The consistency review of the request with the comprehensive plan predominantly assesses whether the request is consistent with the intended designation, discourages urban sprawl, creates neutral or minimal concurrency impacts and has minimal impacts to natural systems. The Future Land Use Element and other policies in other chapters of the comprehensive plan related to:

The following is City staff’s analysis of urban sprawl, minimal concurrency impacts and impacts to natural systems:

Future Land Use (FLU) Designation Evaluation 2.4 Economic and Business Development Future Land Uses “The city’s commercial, professional, and industrial activity centers are designed to provide the community a healthy economic and business environment by supporting the city’s quality of life, providing essential private business services and products, and creating high quality jobs.”

a. “Commercial (COM): The Commercial land use designation consists of a variety of commercial, retail, office, professional, service, and hotel/motel lodging activities located in neighborhood business districts, shopping centers, and highway commercial uses. Limited warehouse activities may also be included in commercial land uses. ”

b. “Industrial (IND): In general, Industrial uses shall be located on local and collector roadways adjacent to Commercial, and other Industrial land use designations.”

Staff Comments – The proposed assignment of Commercial and Industrial future land use designations to the 33.72 acres and 1-acre of Low Density Residential is consistent with the future land use policies promoting employment centers and services and supplies for an urban population. There is no doubt that the properties located between the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and I-95 will continue to convert from semi-agricultural uses and more intense uses.

FLU Policy 5.6c: “Future Land Use Amendments- Amendments to the future land use map as either large scale or small scale map amendments shall be guided by these principles in addition to statutory requirements:

c. All land uses – Each amendment shall be evaluated upon the proposed location, adjacent land use, proposed development (amount of units or square footage of non- residential), facility capacity and buffering of uses between non-like designations, except for mixed use designations.” Staff Comments – The future land use map change for this property to Commercial and Industrial is in an area that soon will experience continued urbanization since the north segment of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway from U.S. 192 to the overpass of I-95 to Ellis Road interchange have been

5B - 8 completed and many developers have expressed an interest in developing the west side of both interchanges, Ellis Road and US 192. Multi-modal Policy 3.1 Coordinated Land Use Practices and Transportation Systems: “Utilize the city’s long-range planning practices and development review to coordinate land use practices and transportation system expansions.…”

Staff Comments – Within several miles, there is direct access to over 6 aerospace and defense contractors, Harris, Embraer, DRS Technologies, Thales, Rockwell Collins, and Northrup Grumman, not including the numerous others that support these companies or are independent of these, representing thousands of jobs. Designating the 33.52 acres to have both commercial and industrial uses allows the common types of development near highway interchanges which supports the city’s policies of coordinating land use and transportation systems.

Urban Sprawl

Comprehensive Plan amendments are reviewed to ensure compliance with the requirements of Florida Statutes, regarding urban sprawl.

Staff Comments—The proposed assignment of the Commercial, Industrial land uses and a very minor amount of Low Density Residential future land use designations to these two properties that is poised to see an influx of urban development with close proximity to the two highway interchanges and the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and the I-95 interchange of US 192 is a logical extension of urban uses being centered along major road intersections.

Public Service Standards and Infrastructure Systems Policy FLU Policy 1.5 states, “Provide the community with a good quality of life by ensuring that there is adequate public services and infrastructure capacity for current and future developments. The City will meet the community’s public service demands by addressing the following:

a. City’s capacity to deliver basic public services and maintain its public facilities and infrastructure systems.”

Staff Comments – The City has capacity to deliver basic water and sewer services and to continue serving its existing customer base. Water and sewer are along Columbia Lane which is to the south of this property.

Public Facilities Policy 1.4, Development Expansion, states, “Require development to connect to city public utility services as part of the site and development review process…”

Staff Comments – The City is requiring potable water and sewer services be provided to the site.

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine whether or not it is consistent with the LDRs.

LDR Section 66-519. Amendment application. Staff Comments—The submitted application complies with the code requirements for its content and completeness. Staff has determined the request is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies in the Future Land Use Element and other portions of the Comprehensive Plan.

5B - 9 Conclusion –

Staff has analyzed the proposal by the applicant, and applying the Commercial, Industrial, and Low Density Residential future land use designations to these properties that are close to two highway interchanges and another major arterial is logical urban expansion within half a mile of major road intersections. The property that is subject to this proposed future land use map amendment furthers the City’s policies of increased development in concentrated areas thereby reducing the need for utility line upsizing or the creation of new roads, and furthering the policies for additional employment centers in the city limits besides the predominance of single family residential neighborhoods we experience as a bedroom community. The location of these proposed future land uses also furthers the Comprehensive Plan desire to have areas of the city in close proximity to jobs and transit and this location is close to several major employers. The buffering of potential residents to the north will be accomplished by restrictions in the development agreement associated with the rezoning, not with the comprehensive plan map amendment.

Public Notice: The large scale comprehensive plan amendment was advertised with a map in the local section of the Florida Today in November and courtesy notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners within 500 feet of the property.

Previous Action: The Planning and Zoning Board conducted its transmittal public hearing on January 12, 2021 and voted 4-0 to recommend that City Council transmit a set of three land use designations (Low Density Residential, Commercial and Industrial) for the two properties.

City Council conducted its transmittal public hearing on January 19, 2021 and voted to send this large scale comprehensive plan map amendment to the State and regional agencies but with the property at 4910 Suapres Lane being completely designated as Industrial instead of the previous proposal of 0.85 acres being designated as Low Density Residential and the remainder Industrial. The case was sent to the State agencies shortly after this for their review. The State of Florida review agencies found no impacts to State facilities, therefore the City can proceed with approving the future land use map amendment.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-02, and adopt the future land use map amendments on the 34.52 acres of property located west of I-95 from Residential Two to Commercial and Industrial conditioned on the property being annexed.

This case is about changing the zoning district on two properties from Agricultural Use (AU) in the County to Commercial Parkway (C-P) and Light Industrial (M-1) with a binding development agreement to allow commercial and industrial uses and to create a buffer without buildings on the north part of the

34.52 acres. The two properties that are Lane Columbia subject to this rezoning are shown in red U.S. 192 outline on the aerial map here. The rezoning and future land use assignments are contingent on the property being annexed.

APPROVE APPROVE WITH CONDITIONS DENY

COMPATIBILITY with the LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS The proposed use of commercial, industrial and probably a retention pond on the residential portion is consistent with the intent of the C-P and M-1 districts. The property size and dimensions conform to the criteria in the zoning districts.

Proposed zoning APPLICATION map FORM

5C - 2 March 2, 2021 Background Information:

This is a request by a property owner for the City to rezone a portion of property from AU (County zoning of Agricultural Use) to C-P (Commercial Parkway), and M-1 (Light Industrial). The following information has been compiled to assist the Board in making a determination concerning this request.

Applicant William P. Turnbaugh, Trustee – Total 34.52 acres – Vacant land Owners/Acreage/Existing Use along US 192 and a home and storage Existing Zoning: AU (Agricultural Use County zoning) Proposed Zoning: C-P (Commercial Parkway) and M-1 (Light Industrial) Proposed Use: Future commercial and industrial uses (nothing is planned)

The applicant has no development plans on the 34.52 acres of land, and currently lives on the north property at 4910 Suapres Lane.

Surrounding Properties:

Zoning District Direction Existing Use Jurisdiction (see attached maps) Vacant land City of West R-1A (Single Family North Melbourne Residential) Space Coast Town Center master plan City of West GTWY-I (Gateway South Melbourne Interchange) Vacant lots and built sites along City of West M-1 (Light Industrial) and BU- East Columbia Lane Melbourne and 2 and TU-2 (Business and Brevard County Tourist Uses) Vacant lots on the east side of the St. Brevard County West AU (Residential Agricultural) Johns Heritage Parkway

Environmental Site Data: Flood Zone: The property is in Flood Zone “AE” designation indicative of the 100-year base flood elevation which means the buildings will have to be at a certain elevation and additional retention pond storage may be needed, or they can request a waiver to the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) if they meet the FEMA criteria.

Natural Resources: The impact on natural resources will be assessed when developed through the site plan process. If there are wetlands on site, these will be either saved or mitigated as determined by the St. Johns River Water Management District.

Adequate Public Services/Facilities: The impact of possible development on water and sewer was analyzed as part of the large-scale future land use designation evaluation. There are no negative impacts to the City’s water or sewer facilities. Traffic capacity has been analyzed for the commercial and industrial and although there would be more trips if the rezoning occurs, the site is currently under used and even if it remains in the County, it is likely that the site would be rezoned and built with more intense uses than currently exists.

5C - 3 March 2, 2021 Staff Analysis:

The applicant is requesting to rezone the property as follows: Acreage/location Current Zoning Proposed Zoning 34.52 acres at the new AU (Agricultural Residential Use) in C-P (along US 192), M-1 (for the interchange at St. John’s unincorporated Brevard County parcel with a connection to Heritage Parkway and I- Columbia Lane, with 0.85-acres as a 95 non-buildable area at the north end

In reviewing the proposed rezoning request, the City assesses whether the request meets the minimum requirements in the Land Development Regulations and whether the request is consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan.

Development Potential and Zoning Suitability:

The C-P and M-1 zoning designations are allowed under the City’s Commercial and Industrial future land use designations which the applicant is requesting as a large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment. The C-P and M-1 zoning is compatible with the vacant land to the west since non-residential uses may soon be requested due to the proximity to arterials and highways and the larger employment centers.

The site is in an area where other properties along US 192 are converting from agricultural zoning to suburban zoning and this continues the rezoning trend along the north side of US 192 for a variety of future uses. There is no doubt that the area next to the intersection node of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192 will develop. This development potential is strengthened because near this existing I-95 interchange, half a mile away is the new interchange of I-95 and limited access 4-lane arterial - St. Johns Heritage Parkway.

Based on the existing land use in the area (commercial on the east side of I-95, and mixed use to the west and south), the property is suitable for the Commercial Parkway and Light Industrial zoning districts. Once the rezoning is approved by City Council, any subsequent specific subdivision plans may have to undergo public hearings and the public would have an opportunity to discuss specific development layout. The property owner has no immediate plans for development, however inclusion in our city limits gives future developers the opportunity to maximize commercial and industrial layouts in the respective zoning districts.

City Codes (Zoning):

A statement from the City’s C-P zoning district describes the area and reads, “Sec. 98-361. - Intent The C-P commercial parkway district is intended to apply to areas located adjacent to a main highway approach to the city.

A statement from the City’s M-1 zoning district describes the area and reads,

“Sec. 98-521. - Intent. The M-1 light industrial and warehousing district is intended to apply to an area located in close proximity to transportation facilities and which can serve manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, wholesaling and other industrial functions of the city and the region.”

5C - 4 March 2, 2021 These statements reiterate what staff has stated in this report regarding the future commercial character of the area west of I-95 and the enhanced vehicular circulation in this area as consistent with the potential commercial, industrial and single family uses.

Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan:

The Large Scale Map Amendment staff report addresses the factors used to determine consistency of the future land use designation with the goals, objectives and policies in the Comprehensive Plan. These policies have been adequately met and the Florida Statute requirements for comprehensive plan amendments have been satisfied. It is reasonable to have a development pattern in a specific area that contains a variety of commercial and industrial uses next to each other and as stated with the future land use map analysis, a 0.85-acre buffer of property at the north end to buffer less dense uses such as single family neighborhoods if built to the north of the property (see the map below).

M-1

C-P

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine if it is consistent with other LDRs.

Sec. 66-287 - Applications. Staff Comments - The submitted applications comply with the code requirements for their content and completeness.

Sec. 66-288 - Review and recommendation on application. The rezoning request is forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Board for its recommendation and then to City Council for its determination. These findings are based on the LDRs, Comprehensive Plan, surrounding conditions, and the facts surrounding the case.

Staff Comments - The C-P and M-1 zoning designations are allowed under the City’s respective future land use designations as long as the comprehensive plan map amendment is approved. These zonings

March 2, 2021 5C - 5 accommodates more intense development than the County’s rural zoning for the two properties. This change will result in future uses that are less agricultural and more urban like, fitting for an area that has proximity to major arterial roads.

Although staff had recommended that along the north property line in an area that measures approx. 659’ by 56’, there be a separate zoning district that only allowed one single family house, City Council determined that a better course of action would be to have a binding development plan that identified the area as not having any buildings or other structures. Therefore,

Comparison of AU and C-P, M-1 Zoning:

Comparison Feature AU C-P/M-1

Staff Comments – Regarding the use table, as described under the row above labeled, “Principal Uses”, the AU and Commercial uses are vastly different, although some of the agricultural uses can be found in the Industrial district too. The 33.67-acre portions of the site exceed the minimum lot depth, and lot width of the C-P and M-1 districts and is therefore compliant with the code dimensions.

Conclusion

The rezoning of this property would be compatible with the surrounding properties and is consistent with the change in character of surrounding sites such as the large development of the “Space Coast Town Center”. There is no proposed development yet on either site and improvements to either US 192 or to Columbia Lane will be determined by other agencies such as FDOT and Brevard County. At the request of City Council during the first public hearing, staff has attached a binding development plan to accompany the rezoning that limits development along the north property line.

March 2, 2021 5C - 6 Public Notice – The rezoning request was advertised in December 2020 in Florida Today and notices were mailed to property owners within 500 feet to advise them of these public hearings on the rezoning and future land use map amendment. No objections have been raised although there is some confusion of this property versus the Space Coast Town Center on the south side of US 192.

Previous Action – The Planning and Zoning Board conducted its public hearing on January 12, 2021 and voted 4-0 in favor of the rezoning to C-P and M-1 with the conditions that the annexation and future land use map amendment are approved.

City Council conducted its public hearing on January 19, 2021 and voted 7-0 in favor of the rezoning but only to C-P and M-1 with no property zoned R-1A and instead to limit buildings and other uses in the 0.85 acre area at the north end of 4910 Suapres Lane.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-03, rezoning the properties from AU (Agricultural Use) to C-P (Commercial Parkway), M-1 (Light Industrial for 4910 Suapres Lane) and to limit uses on 0.85- acre at the north end of 4910 Suapres Lane with the conditions that the annexation and large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment are approved as part of the binding development plan.

To: Mayor and Honorable Members of the West Melbourne City Council

Through: Scott Morgan, City Manager

From: Christy Fischer, AICP, Planning Director

Date: March 2, 2021

SUBJECT

Request for annexation of a 23.27 acre property located west of the Interstate 95 overpass, west of Minton Road on Carriage Gate Drive.

RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends:

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-04, annexing the 23.27-acre property along Carriage Gate Drive and west of Minton Road

FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact is the associated advertising and notification costs with annexing. The funds for this advertisement is approximately $1,250 and notification costs comes from the City Clerk’s advertising budget for annexations and have already been included through the end of fiscal year.

5D - 1 DISCUSSION Applicant: Mr. Cole Oliver of EKS Inc. represented by Bruce Moia, project civil engineer

Requested Action: City Council annexation of the property

Background: Vacant property located along the curve of Carriage Gate Drive is under purchase for a single-family development

Figure 1 – Aerial showing the 23.27 acres in the red outlined area

site

MintonRoad

Municipal Services— The annexation meets the intent of the Florida Statutes which is to have cities annex adjacent properties and serve them with municipal services. The following describes the existing and future conditions. Transportation: The property will use Carriage Gate Drive and Minton Road for access when the site is developed. However, since both Carriage Gate Drive and Minton Road are county roads, the County will have the right to restrict access, require changes in the Minton Road median, etc. The County is currently designing an alteration in the Minton Road median. The County has determined that a traffic signal is not warranted. The developer

5D - 2 will be required to submit a traffic study and coordinate with the County prior to applying for a subdivision.

Utilities: City sewer and water lines already exists along the west side of Brandywine Lane. This property must obtain their water and sewer from the City of West Melbourne.

Stormwater Management: The property when developed will be required to meet the minimum stormwater level of service standards for St. Johns River Water Management District.

Fire: These properties will continue to be served by Brevard County Fire.

Law Enforcement: The West Melbourne Police Department will serve the property instead of Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.

In reviewing proposed voluntary annexations, the City assesses whether the requests meet the minimum requirements as directed by the State of Florida and the City’s Land Development Regulations (LDR). The following sections provide staff’s analysis of these items.

Connection to City water and/or sewer:

During the mid-1990’s, the City enacted an ordinance which required that properties adjacent to the city limits requesting connection to city utilities (water and/or sewer) annex into the city.

Consistency with Florida Statutes:

a) Section 171.042. Prerequisites to Annexation. Staff Comments—The annexation request is consistent with the provisions of Section 171.042(2), F.S. since urban services are already located on the west side of Interstate 95 in the area to be annexed and the extension of either water or sewer services can easily be brought to this site as it will be integrated with the Space Coast Town Center. Brevard County and all affected property owners have been notified of the City’s intent to annex in the subject properties as required by the Florida Statutes.

b) Section 171.044. Voluntary Annexation. Staff Comments — The subject annexation is voluntary and the applicant filed the applications. The City Attorney assisted with the review that the property is located adjacent to the city limits and the ordinance contains property that is reasonably compact. Annexation of the subject property is a logical extension of current city limits that exist to the west (Space Coast Town Center property).

Consistency with West Melbourne Land Development Regulations (LDR):

a) LDR Section 66-222. Creation of Enclaves. Staff Comments—The annexation of these properties does not result in the creation of an enclave since the site is immediately adjacent to property to the west is in our city

5D - 3 limits, and there are still properties to the south that are in unincorporated County. The City Attorney reviews the issue of enclaves prior to staff providing a recommendation.

b) LDR Section 66-227. Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Staff Comments—Newly annexed properties must receive a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This request for annexation is accompanied by a comprehensive plan map amendment in the January 19, 2021 City Council agenda packet and the same land use designation as the abutting properties to the west (Parkway Interchange) will be considered for this site.

c) LDR Section 66-228. Assignment of zoning classification. Staff Comments—The subject property will be assigned a zoning district simultaneously with a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This will also be heard on January 19, 2021 and the single family residential will be considered for this site.

Public Notice – The annexation was advertised in the newspaper and notices were sent to property owners within 500 feet and all legal criteria for announcing the annexation have been met. Most of the feedback received has been from residents of Brandywine Estates concerned about impacts to their subdivision. Previous Action – City Council conducted its public hearing on January 19, 2021 and voted to approve the first reading of the annexation ordinance.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-04.

Background Information— This request was submitted to the State Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and other State agencies, a change to the Future Land Use designation for their review. The applicants are requesting to change a 23.27 acre property from the County Residential Two (RES-2) and County Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Low Density Residential (LD-RES) in West Melbourne and as a separate action to rezone the property from AU (Agriculture Use) to R-1A (Single-Family Residential). The proposed map amendment is a large scale comprehensive plan map amendment because the property is more than ten (10) acres. In February, staff received emails and letters that there were no comments from State agencies in regards to negative impacts to State resources.

Environmental Site Data—

Flood Zone: This property is in Flood Zone X, as determined by the 100-year base flood elevation.

Natural Resources: The impact on surrounding natural resources will be assessed when the site is developed, however, there are many Australian Pines, an exotic invasive tree that will be replaced with other native types of trees.

Development Potential for Large Scale Amendment:

The State requires that when a local government analyzes concurrency for a future land use map amendment, the analysis be based on the most intense use allowed in the proposed future land use category. This maximum is not usually reflective of what can or cannot be built on the site after all other features are accommodated such as lot size, roads, utilities, and stormwater but helps local governments in determining a worst case scenario for future planning of infrastructure.

Maximum Intensity/Density per Maximum Development Potential Future Land Use Designation FLU for 23.27 acres RES – 2 in the County 8.14+/- acres at 2 dwelling units (Residential Two) per acre = 16 Dwelling units on 8.14 acres NC in the County 14.75+/- acres at 0.75 per acre = (Neighborhood Commercial) 481,882 s.f of Commercial. 23.27 +/- acres at 5 dwelling LD-RES (Low Density units per acre= 115 Dwelling units on 23.27 acres Residential)

The Low Density Residential future land use designation only allows single-family residential development. This eliminates the possibility of 481,882 square feet of commercial development which could be retail, office, personal services, or convenience stores if developed in the county.

The above table shows the maximum amount of commercial that possibly could be built in the County is 481,882 square feet and 16 dwelling units would be allowed on the remainder of the property. However, the City of West Melbourne Low Density Residential only allows single-family residential dwellings so in

5E - 4 the City the maximum that could be developed under the LD-RES designation at 5 units per acre, or 115 dwelling units on the entirety of the 23+ acres with no commercial development.

If the site were developed in the county at the commercial maximum buildout allowed in the NC (Neighborhood Commercial) future land use designation, meaning with 481,882 square footage of commercial development, this could generate 17,516 average daily trips (Institute of Traffic Engineers Trip Generation Manual) plus approximately 194 average daily trips if the property were developed with the County’s single-family designation, for a total of 17,710 average daily trips. However, the likelihood of the site being developed in the County with the maximum allowable intensity/density is not realistic since roads, sidewalks and storm water area must be provided on site. In contrast, if the property were completely developed under the City’s Low Density Residential, there could be 1,184 average daily trips, far fewer than the potential volume that could come from the site if it remained in the County.

The City’s Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Element contains a policy which states that future land use map amendments such as this, shall be evaluated upon location, adjacent land use, proposed development, buffering of non-like uses, and infrastructure capacity of water, sewer, and solid waste. The potential impact to infrastructure capacity and adjacent land uses were already mentioned, however, it is important to note from a land use compatibility perspective, with the existing county land use designation there could be a substantial amount of Commercial. The Low Density Residential designation in the City means development would be limited to single-family residential with no commercial development. There would be negligible impact to the Carriage Gate subdivision and other single-family residences located adjacent to the property with property with similar uses, namely single-family.

Adequate Public Services/Facilities:

The following narrative summarizes the maximum infrastructure and service impacts related to capacity of public facilities and preliminary concurrency evaluation of facility capacity. This type of analysis is required by Florida Statutes for comprehensive plan amendments, but does not reserve actual water or sewer capacity, only that there is still sufficient capacity to serve the property at maximum build out.

Water and sewer concurrency - City staff consulted with the Public Works regarding if 23.27 acres were developed as Low Density Residential. The comparison of development in County’s NC and RES-2 land use designations (current FLU) versus the “Low Density Residential” (proposed FLU) reveals that overall demand for water, sewer and solid waste are lower.

Other Public Services—

Transportation: Primary Access: Carriage Gate Drive and Minton Road

The applicant will submit a traffic study when the preliminary plat request is submitted. Staff has estimated traffic generation rates of 1100 Average Daily Trips (ADT) for 115 units of single-family housing at a maximum or 17,710 ADT if the property remained in the County and were developed as a shopping center. The traffic study trip generation assumes a maximum capacity build out as allowed by the County versus City future land use designations, however, the developer only proposes 55 homes in his development which will only generate an additional 572 average daily trips, less than what is generated from Carriage Gate.

This property currently has frontage on Carriage Gate Drive, and County staff and the Carriage Gate homeowners association have been discussing traffic remedies to assist its residents during

5E - 5 peak hours. The County has said that currently with 158 dwelling units or even with 55 additional dwelling units, the roadway does not warrant a new traffic signal. However, the County has discussed alterations in Minton Road’s medians for turn lanes and some re-striping. The Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization has conducted the Minton Road study of corridor improvements and the Carriage Gate intersection was included with a turn lane for median improvements.

Utilities: The property owner desires to connect to city water and sewer with the proposed development. There is capacity in our systems to accommodate the potential development of single-family residential units on 23.27 acres.

Stormwater: Any development of a site requires that stormwater runoff from roads, sidewalks, roofs, etc. be kept on the developed site and not impact surrounding uses.

Fire & Police: Brevard County Fire and Rescue provides fire protection and emergency services. City of West Melbourne Police will serve the property.

School: Since the proposed development will have single-family residential uses, school concurrency must be evaluated by Brevard Public Schools with this future land use map amendment. The applicant has filled out the school concurrency application and this is being evaluated. Fifty-five homes could generate 21 additional students to be accommodated in the West Melbourne elementary and middle school and Melbourne high.

Staff Analysis—

There are two types of amendments to a comprehensive plan: small scale and large scale. The proposed amendment is considered large scale because the size of the property on the future land use map is more than ten (10) acres. The Planning and Zoning Board, as the City’s Local Planning Agency (163.3174 F.S.), held a public hearing and deliberation hearing on the request and provided a recommendation to the City Council. Council will ultimately determine whether to approve or deny the request.

City Code Citation: Land Development Regulations Section 66-520. Amendment process

State Requirements:

The following criteria have been reviewed to determine the appropriateness of the land use amendment request:

Florida Statutes Ch. 163, pt. II: The request is consistent with the provisions of Ch. 163, pt. II, F.S. which contain the criteria for required items needed for comprehensive plan future land use map amendments and sending these to the State and local agencies.

Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan: According to the land development regulations (LDR) Section 66-518, comprehensive plan amendments must be in compliance with the City’s comprehensive plan and state requirements. The consistency review of the request with the comprehensive plan predominantly assesses whether the request is consistent with the intended designation, discourages urban sprawl, creates neutral or minimal concurrency impacts

5E - 6 and has minimal impacts to natural systems. The Future Land Use Element and other policies in other chapters of the comprehensive plan related to:

The following is City staff’s analysis of urban sprawl, minimal concurrency impacts and impacts to natural systems:

Future Land Use (FLU) Designation Evaluation

FLU Policy 2.2: “Residential land uses are intended for the development and support of existing and future neighborhood areas and low density residential areas. The city’s neighborhoods are designed to provide the community safe, vibrant places to live and share life with family, friends, and neighbors. A variety of transportation alternatives (walking, biking, auto, and transit) should interconnect adjacent neighborhoods and activity centers. In order to foster neighborhood connection to other neighborhoods, civic spaces are encouraged to be located along the transitional areas that link the city’s residential areas together.”

FLU Policy 2.2.a: “The Low Density Residential land use designation consists of single family residential uses. Commercial uses are not allowed in low-density residential land areas. The maximum density allowed in the LD-RES land use designation is 5 du/acre.”

Staff Comments – The proposed assignment of LD-RES future land use designation to this property is consistent with the future land use policies for low density areas. The Low Density Residential land use is intended to be on property near other single-family low density residential areas such as Carriage Gate.

FLU Policy 5.6c: “Future Land Use Amendments- Amendments to the future land use map as either large scale or small scale map amendments shall be guided by these principles in addition to statutory requirements:

c. All land uses – Each amendment shall be evaluated upon the proposed location, adjacent land use, proposed development (amount of units or square footage of non- residential), facility capacity and buffering of uses between non-like designations, except for mixed use designations.” Staff Comments – The future land use map change for this property to Low Density Residential is compatible with the already established single-family residential area to the north and west (a few existing homes).

Urban Sprawl

Comprehensive Plan amendments are reviewed to ensure compliance with the requirements of Florida Statutes, regarding urban sprawl.

Staff Comments—The proposed assignment of the LD-RES (Low Density Residential) future land use designation to a property that is. It is a logical extension of the city to extend into adjacent more rural areas such as this.

Public Service Standards and Infrastructure Systems Policy

5E - 7 FLU Policy 1.5 states, “Provide the community with a good quality of life by ensuring that there is adequate public services and infrastructure capacity for current and future developments. The City will meet the community’s public service demands by addressing the following:

a. City’s capacity to deliver basic public services and maintain its public facilities and infrastructure systems.”

Staff Comments – The City has capacity to deliver basic water and sewer services and to continue serving its existing customer base.

Public Facilities Policy 1.4, Development Expansion, states, “Require development to connect to city public utility services as part of the site and development review process…”

Staff Comments – The City is requiring potable water and sewer services be provided to the site, so this annexation is truly for common urban services, namely utilities.

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine whether or not it is consistent with the LDRs.

LDR Section 66-519. Amendment application. Staff Comments—The submitted application complies with the code requirements for its content and completeness. Staff has determined the request is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies in the Future Land Use Element and other portions of the Comprehensive Plan.

Conclusion –

Staff has analyzed the proposal by the applicant, and applying the Low Density Residential future land use designation for this property. This property is compatible with their surrounding neighbors in unincorporated County and as stated previously a single-family residential subdivision is more compatible than the possible commercial development that could occur under the county’s land use designation.

Public Notice: The large scale comprehensive plan amendment was advertised with a map in the local section of the Florida Today in December and courtesy notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners within 500 feet of the property. On December 29th, the developer held a meeting with Carriage Gate Drive homeowners to describe the proposed small subdivision. Most of the discussion was about traffic and it is possible that this new development will pay towards improvements at Carriage Gate and Minton with traffic impact fees.

Previous Action: The Planning and Zoning Board conducted its public hearing on January 12, 2021 and voted 4-0 to recommend to Council to transmit the large scale comprehensive plan map amendment on the condition that the annexation occurs.

City Council conducted its public hearing on January 19, 2021 and voted 5-2 to approve the first reading of the ordinance and to transmit the large scale comprehensive plan map amendment. The case was sent to the State agencies shortly after this for their review. The State of Florida review agencies found no impacts to State facilities, therefore the City can proceed with approving the future land use map amendment.

5E - 8 RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-05 and transmit the future land use map amendment on the 23.27 acres of property located west of Minton Road on Carriage Gate Drive from Brevard County Residential Two and Neighborhood Commercial to City of West Melbourne Low Density Residential with the change being conditioned on the property being annexed.

Proposed zoning APPLICATION map FORM

Background Information:

This is a request by an owner/applicant for the City to rezone a property from GU (County zoning of General Use) to R-1A (Single-Family Residential). The following information has been compiled to assist the Board in making a determination concerning this request.

5F - 2 The applicant desires to construct a single-family residential development on 23.27 acres of land. The applicant submitted a concept plan for the proposed single-family residential subdivision development (see Attachment 2). However, this concept plan is not a formal submittal for a subdivision nor a guarantee of the layout. The plan was used to discuss this proposal with the Carriage Gate homeowners during the December 29th meeting.

Applicant EKS Incorporated 23.27 acres – Vacant/undeveloped land Owners/Acreage/Existing Use Existing Zoning: Brevard County GU (General Use County zoning) Proposed Zoning: City of West Melbourne R-1A (Single-Family Residential) Proposed Use: Future single-family residential subdivision

The following information has been compiled to assist the Board in making a determination concerning the rezoning request.

Surrounding Properties:

Zoning District Direction Existing Use Jurisdiction (see attached maps) Carriage Gate Subdivision (163-lot FDOT right-of-way North SR (Suburban Residential) Single-Family Residential) and Brevard County Vacant property & 7th Day Adventist City of West South P-1 (Institutional) school Melbourne Single family on the east side of City of West C-1 (Low Density East Minton Road Melbourne (Commercial) Single family, vacant property and AU (Residential Agricultural) West Brevard Tower Communications Inc. Brevard County and GU (General Use) property

Environmental Site Data:

Flood Zone: The property is in Flood Zone “X” as determined by the 100-year base flood elevation maps.

Natural Resources: The impact on natural resources will be assessed when developed through the subdivision process. If there are wetlands on site, these will be either saved or mitigated as determined by the St. Johns River Water Management District.

Adequate Public Services/Facilities:

The impact from a residential development on water and sewer was analyzed as part of the large-scale future land use designation evaluation. There are no negative impacts to the City’s water or sewer facilities. School capacity is being analyzed by the Brevard Public Schools and their staff will provide their determination about available capacity in the three tiers of schooling, elementary, middle and high.

5F - 3 Staff Analysis: The applicant is requesting to rezone the property as follows: Acreage/location Current Zoning Proposed Zoning 23.27 acres west of GU (General Use) in unincorporated R-1A, Single-Family Residential Minton Road on Carriage Brevard County Gate

In reviewing the proposed rezoning request, the City assesses whether the request meets the minimum requirements in the Land Development Regulations and whether the request is consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan.

Development Potential and Zoning Suitability:

The R-1A zoning designation is allowed under the City’s LD-RES, Low Density Residential land use designation for which the applicant is also requesting a large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment. The R-1A zoning is compatible with the land uses to the west since they are mostly single-family residential uses. R-1A is one of the larger zoning districts. The only other use besides the single-family residential to the west is the Brevard Tower Communications, Inc.’s cell tower located approximately 200+ feet away from the western property line of the subject property proposed to be a single-family residential subdivision. During the subdivision process, staff will require documentation (possibly an easement) to ensure future property owners are aware of the cell tower location and that the fall zone of the cell tower remains on the adjacent property.

Based on the existing land use in the area, single-family residential use to the north (Carriage Gate) and west, with some vacant land commercial land to the south, the property is suitable for the R-1A zoning district. Once the rezoning is approved by City Council, any subsequent specific subdivision plans have to undergo public hearings and the public would have an opportunity to discuss specific development layout and road remedies. The property owner has immediate plans for creating a subdivision and selling the lots to various home builders and the subdivision process also affords citizens the ability to provide feedback.

City Codes (Zoning):

A statement from the City’s R-1A zoning district describes the intent of this single-family residential district, “Sec. 98-191. – Intent “The R-1A single-family residential district is intended to apply to an area of low density, single-family residential development. Lot sizes and other restrictions are intended to promote high quality residential development.”

This property is in an area with a concentration of single-family residential properties and the request for R-1A zoning district is consistent with this intent statement of the R-1A zoning district.

Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan: The Large Scale Map Amendment staff report addresses the factors used to determine consistency of the future land use designation with the goals, objectives and policies in the Comprehensive Plan. These policies have been adequately met and the Florida Statute requirements for comprehensive plan

5F - 4 amendments have been satisfied. It is reasonable to have a single-family residential development in a specific area that contains other single-family residential uses next to each other.

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine if it is consistent with other LDRs.

Sec. 66-287 - Applications. Staff Comments - The submitted applications comply with the code requirements for their content and completeness.

Sec. 66-288 - Review and recommendation on application. The rezoning request is forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Board for its recommendation and then to City Council for its determination. These findings are based on the LDRs, Comprehensive Plan, surrounding conditions, and the facts surrounding the case.

Staff Comments - The R-1A zoning designation is allowed under the City’s LD-RES future land use designation as long as the comprehensive plan map amendment is approved. This R-1A zoning accommodates a low density residential development. Although the lots are not ½ acre or larger, they are slightly larger than recent residential subdivisions which have had lots that are only 55 feet by 120 feet.

Sec. 98-196 – Lot and structure requirements. (R-1A, Single-Family Residential District)

“The lot and structure requirements in the R-1A single-family residential district are as follows: (1)Minimum lot area: 7,500 square feet. (2)Minimum lot width: 75 feet. (3)Minimum lot depth: 100 feet. (4)Maximum building coverage: 40 percent. (5)Minimum living area: 900 square feet. (6)Maximum height: 35 feet. (7)Minimum yard requirements: a. Front: 25 feet. b. Side, interior: 7½ feet. c. Side, corner: 25 feet. d. Rear: 25 feet; 20 feet when abutting an alley.”

Sec. 98-197 – Density. (R-1A, Single-Family Residential District)

“For any permitted use within the R-1A single-family residential district, the density shall not exceed five dwelling units per acre.”

Staff Comments - The property to be rezoned meets the location requirements in the R-1A district and individual lots must meet the lot and structure requirements of the R-1A zoning district. As mentioned previously, the property rezoning is consistent with the land use designation of LD-RES and cannot exceed five dwelling units per acre, and the developer is proposing a density of only 2.36 units/acre. The property will undergo the subdivision review process which requires public hearings and citizens will be able to provide feedback on the layout. The table below describes R-1A uses as compared to the uses allowed in the existing county GU zoning.

5F - 5 Comparison of Brevard County GU and City of West Melbourne R-1A Zoning:

City of West Melbourne Comparison Feature Brevard County GU R-1A

Single-family detached residential dwelling, parks and Principle Uses public recreation facilities, private golf courses, foster Single-Family Dwellings homes. Maximum Intensity Not applicable 40% building coverage Minimum Lot Area 5 acres 7,500 SF Minimum Lot Width 300 feet 75 feet Minimum Lot Depth 300 feet 100 feet Maximum Height 35 feet 35 feet Minimum Setbacks*: Front 25 feet 25 feet Side, Interior 15 feet 7 ½ feet Side, Corner 25 feet 25 feet Rear 20 feet 25 feet

Staff Comments – Regarding the use table, as described under the row above labeled, “Principal Uses”, the GU and R-1A both permit single-family residential dwellings. The difference between the possible R-1A and GU uses is that the site could currently be developed with other uses agricultural and commercial businesses allowed in the county under the GU zoning. The 23.27-acre site exceeds the minimum lot depth, and lot width of the R-1A district and is therefore compliant with the code dimensions, and any future subdivision of the property will also have to comply with the minimum R-1A criteria.

Conclusion

The rezoning of this property is compatible with the surrounding single-family uses. The proposal for a single-family neighborhood in the R-1A zoning district is consistent with the development on two sides of this property. The concept plan is not tied to this rezoning and was only shown to the neighboring citizens as an image of the possible layout of the property with a subdivision.

Public Notice – The rezoning request was advertised in December, 2020 in Florida Today and notices were mailed to property owners within 500 feet to advise them of these public hearings on the rezoning and future land use map amendment. In addition, the developer as a requirement for the annexation, conducted a meeting with the surrounding property owners on December 29, 2020. The concern from neighbors was about traffic and the Minton Road intersection in the process of being addressed by Brevard County.

Previous Action – The Planning and Zoning Board conducted its public hearing on January 12, 2021 and recommended 4-0 that City Council approve the rezoning contingent on the annexation and future land use map amendment.

City Council conducted its first public hearing on January 19, 2021 and voted 5-2 to approve the rezoning ordinance.

5F - 6 RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2021-06, rezoning the property from GU (General Use) to R-1A (Single-Family Residential) with the condition that the annexation and large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment are approved.

SUBJECT

Code Amendment proposed by developer to allow gas stations in the Gateway Interchange zoning district.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 2021-08, changing the Gateway Interchange zoning district per City Council’s February 16th revisions to allow gas stations with placement and performance criteria.

FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact of the advertisement for the code change is paid for by the applicant.

5G - 1 DISCUSSION PROPERTY ADDRESS – N/A, code change applies to properties that are zoned Gateway Interchange and over 50 acres in size

BRIEF SUMMARY OF REQUEST In 2020, the developers of the Space Coast Town Center were told that in order to have a gas station, the Gateway Interchange zoning district had to be amended since gas stations were a prohibited use. If approved, the code amendment would be applicable immediately in the Gateway Interchange zoning district.

COMPATIBILITY with the COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HISTORY The Gateway Interchange zoning district was In 2016, when the Gateway Interchange zoning district was proposed, created to be consistent with the Parkway the land owner who drafted the ordinance did not identify gas stations Interchange future land use designation (which is as a possible use. Staff did not include gas station uses since there are the general policy that describes this mixed use sufficient gas stations on the east side of the interchange, a half mile designation), so there is no change to the away. Now in 2021, the developer would like to accommodate a gas consistency with the future land use designation. station along its frontage along US 192. City staff is proposing gas stations only be allowed as conditional use permits as occurs in other commercial zoning districts in the City. COMPATIBILITY with the LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS

This staff report analyzes the proposed code amendment which has been modified since its initial submittal to staff.

ATTACHMENTS (CIRCLE) SUBMITTED PLANS PUBLIC H EARING PETITION/ Proposed Code Language N/A COUNCIL REQUESTED

Background — This is a proposal by the Space Coast Town Center developers to allow gas stations in the Gateway Interchange zoning district (See Attachment 1 – zoning map). Staff reviewed the practices by other local governments, and suggestions in the Planning profession, as well as ensuring that the same types of layout and appearance codes found in other commercial zoning districts were included in the Gateway Interchange zoning district. The City has historically allowed gas stations to be located along arterial roads and major intersections and this would continue this type of development pattern. The following information has been compiled to assist the boards concerning this request to add gas stations as a conditional use in the Gateway Interchange zoning district.

Staff Analysis— The Gateway Interchange zoning district is a new zoning category created in 2016 with an intent to have a mix of uses to create a development that efficiently disperses traffic inside its own community and operates almost self-sufficiently. Mixed use developments that are partially self-sufficient are well suited on the west side of I-95 since there are no services along US 192 in the city limits. Up until the proposal for the Space Coast Town Center, there were few city utilities in close proximity to properties along US 192 and the St. Johns Heritage Parkway. As stated in other staff reports, the character of US 192 and the St. Johns Heritage Parkway will change the existing land pattern from vacant or sparsely developed parcels to urban and suburban styles that have residential and non-residential uses.

The property owner on the south side of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192 in 2016 wanted a flexible zoning district that allowed residential and industrial uses even though it was modeled after the Commercial Parkway zoning district which only allows commercial types of uses. The original draft of the Gateway Interchange zoning district by the property owner listed service stations as a conditional use

5G - 2 permit. However, upon further discussions with staff in 2016, there was no proposed gas station development for their property and staff and the property owner agreed there was not a need for gas stations at that time since within a half mile of the project on the east side of US 192 there are three (3) existing gas stations, and a fourth one not far from that. Now that the Space Coast Town Center project is moving forward with the development of the apartments, the developer has been approached by a gas station company who would like to be part of the mixed use development. Florida Statutes requires that if a use is going to be amended, removed or added in a zoning district, this action must be approved by the local governing agency and not just changed by administrative staff.

Applicant’s rationale – Attachment 2 is the applicant’s attorney’s letter describing the proposed amendment, why they believe it is required and which comprehensive plan policies support inclusion of a gas station in the Gateway Interchange zoning district. The attorney states that residents and businesses in the Space Coast Town Center and other Gateway Interchange zoned need service stations to fuel their individual vehicles. The applicant’s attorney uses the phrase “service stations” but staff has determined that since the request is really for gas stations and not auto repair centers, that the code amendment should specifically only list gas stations as a new use allowed as a conditional use, except for those communities such as the Space Coast Town Center that have been master planned. The applicant’s original proposal was for gas stations to be limited in quantity, by having only one per 150 acres. Staff changed this since we have another Gateway Interchange district at the Ellis Road interchange that is less than 150 acres and we believe this property owner would eventually request a change to the acreage to allow a gas station on their property.

Change to Chapter 98. Section 98- Gateway Interchange– (addition of gas stations as a conditional use)

Specifically, Section 98-843, Conditional Uses is the subsection that contains the list of uses requiring a conditional use permit and any additional criteria. It is in this section of the code that the criteria for the gas station and accessory uses, site layout, overall design including canopy, architecture and allowed uses was added (See Attachment 3). As mentioned previously in the staff report, to prevent intersections from being overloaded with gas stations that could impact the environment and to retain the character of mixed use districts, staff is recommending there be no more than two (2) gas stations at any single intersection regardless of jurisdiction. For example, at the intersection of St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192, out of the four corners (see aerial below), three corners are in our city limits and one is in the County - and two corners in our city limits could contain gas stations and the corner in the County could too. However, if the corner in the County has an existing gas station, and a gas station in the Space Coast Town Center is built at one of their corners, then there could be no other gas station at the third corner.

During the Planning and Zoning Board discussion of this agenda item, the City Attorney clarified that as to when the maximum quantity of gas stations at an intersection are reached, that if two proposed gas stations in the city limits have received conditional use permit, the corners are filled up with gas stations and no other ones could be processed at that particular intersection. Meaning, there does not have to be a built presence at that intersection, only an active development permit (a conditional use permit is a type of development permit).

5G - 3 This corner is This corner is In the city limits In the County

This corner is This corner is In the city limits In the city limits (Space Coast Town Center)

Lastly, the City Attorney reviewed the code change to allow gas stations in the Gateway Interchange and he made a few changes that ensured that the performance criteria was not contradictory to the Florida Statute protection of gas station banding, canopy striping, logos, etc. The last paragraph under this new Subsection 98-843(1)(d) is the statement that recognizes that while design criteria is applicable, the City will not infringe on the branding, logos and canopy design of the gas stations.

Conclusion:

The applicant for this code change to the Gateway Interchange zoning district is the Space Coast Town Center. City staff reviewed the applicant’s original submittal and made revisions based on the community feedback we have received and the idea that gas station criteria should be consistent from one zoning district to another. Staff researched whether surrounding jurisdictions allow gas stations in mixed use districts and the majority do but with conditional use permit discretion. Even in Orlando, gas stations are allowed but must comply with performance standards and be compatible with surrounding uses. Gas stations are one of those uses that are scrutinized by local governments because of their potential environmental, traffic and appearance impacts. For some of these reasons, city staff chose to limit gas stations in mixed use developments to no more than 1 (one) per every fifty (50) acres and to a total of 2 (two) per intersection (any type of intersection). The code changes to allow gas stations in the Gateway Interchange zoning district only needed to be made in one section of that zoning district, Section 98-843(1) (d) and the City Attorney reviewed the proposed code to ensure that is complied with protection that the Florida Statutes gives to gas stations for their gas station branding, logos, and canopy coloring among other protections.

Previous Action: The Planning and Zoning Board met on February 10, 2021 and unanimously made the recommendation that the change to the Gateway Interchange zoning district occur with some changes and a request to Council. These are the items that were changed in the attached Ordinance Number 2021-08: • The requirement that windows not be one expanse of unbroken glass or other material be deleted since the Space Coast Town Center may want to encourage different architecture than typically used for convenience storefronts • The permissive word of “encouraged” was changed to “required” in the section that canopy supports match the main building by at least 25% • The phrase that followed that requirement about metal structures was deleted

5G - 4 City Council held its public hearing on the zoning district change on March 2, 2021 and voted to approve the first reading with one significant change: • Only allow one gas station per 150 acres or some other criteria to limit the quantity of gas stations per Gateway Interchange project.

The City Attorney has prepared the revision per City Council’s request in Exhibit A of Ordinance Number 2021-08

Public Notice:

The public hearing for the code change was advertised in December 2020 and January 2021 as required by Florida Statutes in the legal section of Florida Today.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the first reading of Ordinance Number 2021-08, adopting code changes to include gas stations as a conditional use with criteria in the Gateway Interchange zoning district. ATTACHMENTS

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the West Melbourne City Council

Through: Scott Morgan, City Manager

From: Christy Fischer, AICP, Planning Director

Date: March 2, 2021

SUBJECT

Annex the property west of Brandywine Lane and I-95 and south of US 192.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2020-13, annexing the property west of Brandywine Lane and I-95 and south of US 192.

FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact is the associated advertising and notification costs with annexing. The funds for this advertisement is approximately $1,250 and notification costs comes from the City Clerk’s advertising budget for annexations and have already been included through the end of fiscal year.

5H - 1 DISCUSSION

Property to be Annexed: (Depicted in the aerial below)

The owner of the properties west of Interstate 95, west of Brandywine Lane and south of US 192 submitted an application for annexation (see Attachment 1). Since the properties are contiguous to the city limits and the owner wants to connect to city sewer and water, our codes require that to obtain urban services, they must annex into our city.

Space Coast Town Center

site ST JOHNS HERITAGE PARKWAY

5H - 2 Municipal Services— The annexation meets the intent of the Florida Statutes which is to have cities annex adjacent properties and serve them with municipal services. The following describes the existing and future conditions. Transportation: The properties will be able to use US 192 and St. Johns Heritage Parkway for access when the site is developed as part of the master plan for the Space Coast Town Center as described by the developers.

Utilities: City sewer and water lines already exists along the west side of Brandywine Lane. This property must obtain their water and sewer from the City of West Melbourne since it is part of the Space Coast Town Center development.

Stormwater Management: The property when developed will be required to meet the minimum stormwater level of service standards for St. Johns River Water Management District.

Fire: These properties will continue to be served by Brevard County Fire.

Law Enforcement: The West Melbourne Police Department will serve the property instead of Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.

In reviewing proposed voluntary annexations, the City assesses whether the requests meet the minimum requirements as directed by the State of Florida and the City’s Land Development Regulations (LDR). The following sections provide staff’s analysis of these items.

Connection to City water and/or sewer: During the mid-1990’s, the City enacted an ordinance which required that properties adjacent to the city limits requesting connection to city utilities (water and/or sewer) annex into the city.

Consistency with Florida Statutes:

a) Section 171.042. Prerequisites to Annexation. Staff Comments—The annexation request is consistent with the provisions of Section 171.042(2), F.S. since urban services are already located on the west side of Interstate 95 in the area to be annexed and the extension of either water or sewer services can easily be brought to this site as it will be integrated with the Space Coast Town Center. Brevard County and all affected property owners have been notified of the City’s intent to annex in the subject properties as required by the Florida Statutes.

b) Section 171.044. Voluntary Annexation. Staff Comments — The subject annexation is voluntary and the applicant filed the applications. The City Attorney assisted with the review that the property is located adjacent to the city limits and the ordinance contains property that is reasonably compact. Annexation of the subject property is a logical extension of current city limits that exist to the west (Space Coast Town Center property).

Consistency with West Melbourne Land Development Regulations (LDR):

a) LDR Section 66-222. Creation of Enclaves.

5H - 3 Staff Comments—The annexation of these properties does not result in the creation of an enclave since the site is immediately adjacent to property to the west is in our city limits, and there are still properties to the south that are in unincorporated County. The City Attorney reviews the issue of enclaves prior to staff providing a recommendation.

b) LDR Section 66-227. Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Staff Comments—Newly annexed properties must receive a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This request for annexation is accompanied by a comprehensive plan map amendment in the December 15, 2020 City Council agenda packet and the same land use designation as the abutting properties to the west (Parkway Interchange) will be considered for this site.

c) LDR Section 66-228. Assignment of zoning classification. Staff Comments—The subject property will be assigned a zoning district simultaneously with a comprehensive plan future land use designation. This will also be heard on December 15, 2020 and the same zoning as the other sites to the west (GTWY-I, Gateway Interchange) will be considered for this site.

Public Notice – The annexation was advertised in the newspaper and notices were sent to property owners within 500 feet and all legal criteria for announcing the annexation have been met. Most of the feedback received from adjacent property owners have been from residents of Brandywine Estates concerned about impacts to their subdivision if a roadway connects from this property to Brandywine Lane. Previous Action:

On December 15, 2020, City Council conducted the public hearing and the first reading of Ordinance Number 2020-13, annexing the property described above into our city limits.

RECOMMENDATION

Motion to approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2020-13, annexing the property west of I-95 and Brandywine Lane and south of US 192.

SUBJECT

Amend the Future Land Use Map to change the future land use designation from (RES-2) Residential and (NC) Neighborhood Commercial in the County to (PI) Parkway Interchange if the 44.72 acre property is annexed (west of Interstate 95, on Brandywine Lane).

RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 2020-14 adopting the large scale comprehensive plan map amendment LSA 2020-02 to change the future land use of the property from Residential Two (RES- 2) and Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Parkway Interchange (P-I).

FISCAL IMPACT

The funds for this advertisement of approximately $1250 comes from the applicant.

5I - 1 DISCUSSION PROPERTY ADDRESS – located west of APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER Interstate 95, near the intersection of Benjamin Hedrick, P.A, Akerman associates agent for Space Coast Brandywine Lane and US 192 (SR 500) Town Center PUBLIC HEARING DATE – LOCATION RELATED TO SURROUNDINGS December 8, 2020 P&Z West of I-95 near the intersection of Brandywine Lane and US 192 March 2, 2021 City Council-adoption BRIEF SUMMARY OF REQUEST U.S. 192 This case is about changing the future land use designation on a portion of a property from Residential Two (RES-2) in the County to Space Coast Parkway Interchange (PI) to allow a mixed use commercial and multi-family development on Town Center 44.72 acres as part of the proposed Space Coast site Town Center development. The applicant is proposing a master plan revision for the Space Coast Town Center as part of the development agreement revisions to include this acreage. The property that is subject to this comprehensive plan map amendment is shown in red outline on the aerial map here. The future land use designation assignment is contingent on the property being annexed.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION APPROVE APPROVE WITH CONDITIONS DENY

COMPATIBILITY with the COMPREHENSIVE PROPERTY HISTORY PLAN The property contains a burrow pit that FDOT used (hence the square The proposed map amendment is consistent shape) in construction of I-95. The property owner kept the site in with the policies in the City’s Horizon 2030 unincorporated county for tax reasons and now is annexing into the City. Comprehensive Plan that support urban uses The property is vacant except for some agricultural use and roadwork such as the proposed mixed use staging. Since a portion of the burrow pit is on the Space Coast Town development. Center’s property and they are filling in part of the pond, it makes sense that the developer would buy this property to include in his master development. COMPATIBILITY with the LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS

The proposed map amendment to designate a portion of the property with – “Parkway Interchange” (PI) is consistent with the Zoning District requested, GTWY-I (Gateway Interchange). The developer will revise the development agreement for the Space Coast Town Center to include this new property and to update the conceptual master plan.

Background Information—

This is a request by the owner/applicant to submit to the State Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO), a change to the Future Land Use designation. The applicants are requesting to change a 44.72 acre portion of their property from Residential Two (RES-2) and Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Parkway Interchange (PI, a mixed use future land use designation) and as a separate action to rezone the property from AU (Agriculture Use) to GTWY-I (Gateway Interchange, also a mixed use district). The proposed map amendment is a large scale comprehensive plan map amendment because the property is more than ten (10) acres. In January - February, staff received emails and letters that there were no comments from State agencies in regards to negative impacts to State resources.

Environmental Site Data—

Flood Zone: If this property is in a flood zone, building elevations for residents and construction of larger ponds will be required during the plan review process.

Natural Resources: The impact on surrounding natural resources will be assessed when the site is developed.

Development Potential for Large Scale Amendment:

The State requires that when a local government analyzes concurrency for a future land use amendment, the analysis be based on the most intense use allowed in the proposed future land use category. This maximum is not usually reflective of what can or cannot be built on the site after all other features are accommodated such as stormwater, parking, and buildings, but helps local governments in determining a worst case scenario for future planning of infrastructure.

Maximum Intensity/Density per Maximum Development Potential Future Land Use Designation FLU for 44.72 acres RES – 2 in the County 2 dwelling units per acre = (Residential Two) 87 Dwelling units on 43.5 acres NC in the County 39,204 s.f. 0.75 per acre = (Neighborhood Commercial)

44.72 acres of commercial at 20 dwelling units per acre with a 65% 80% of the acreage with a 1.0 limit = 581 dwelling units FAR = 1,558,403 S.F. with 10% PI (Parkway Interchange) And 10% open space and 25% open space and 10% acreage of commercial or industrial = 438,301 industrial = 194,800 S.F. s.f.

As a mixed use future land use designation, the PI future land use designation allows professional office, personal services, convenience stores, institutional uses, public facilities and multi-family development.

5I - 4 The above table is shows the slight amount of commercial that possibly could be built in the County and the 87 dwelling units that would be allowed on the remainder of the property. However, Parkway Interchange is different than other comprehensive plan map amendment maximum impact tables in that it assumes that either multi-family or commercial dominate the mix of uses and there is always 10% required open space. The PI designation requires at least three uses, a required 10% of open space, commercial, industrial, institutional, or multi-family.

If the multi-family uses dominates the mix of uses, then on 44.72 acres, the proposed PI designation allows a density of 20 units per acre with a cap of occupying 65% of the project equates to 581 dwelling units.

If the commercial and industrial uses dominates the mix of uses, then on 44.72 acres, the potential non- residential square footage could be 1,753,203 square feet with a cap of occupying 90% of the project and leaving 10% in open space. It is important to note that there may not be much difference in the impact to city water and sewer capacity for 44 acres of mixed use that contains commercial and industrial uses versus the 44 acres developed with 581 dwelling units.

If the site were developed at the commercial and industrial maximum buildout allowed in the PI (Parkway Interchange) future land use designation, meaning be 1,558,402 square footage of commercial development, this would generate more average daily trips (Institute of Traffic Engineers Trip Generation Manual) than if the property remained in the County and had a density of 87 dwelling units total and 39,204 s.f. of commercial. However, the likelihood of a site being predominantly developed with 1.5 million square feet of commercial and industrial is unlikely, and a more likely total square footage may be a tenth or a quarter of that square footage with fewer concurrency impacts to water, sewer, solid waste, drainage systems. The likelihood of 581 apartments on the site is also unlikely given the fact that the retention pond occupies so much of the property’s acreage.

The City’s Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Element contains a policy which states that future land use map amendments such as this, shall be evaluated upon location, adjacent land use, proposed development, buffering of non-like uses, and infrastructure capacity of water, sewer, and solid waste. The potential impact to infrastructure capacity and adjacent land uses were already mentioned, however, it is important to note from a land use compatibility perspective, that there would be negligible impact to the Brandywine Estates subdivision since there is a canal and some vacant land to the south of the canal and because the Space Coast Town Center has pledged via a binding concept master plan to only have their development access US 192 or the St. Johns Heritage Parkway.

Adequate Public Services/Facilities:

The following narrative summarizes the maximum infrastructure and service impacts related to capacity of public facilities and preliminary concurrency evaluation of facility capacity. This type of analysis is required by Florida Statutes for comprehensive plan amendments, but does not reserve actual water or sewer capacity, only that there is still sufficient capacity to serve the property at maximum build out.

Water and sewer concurrency - City staff consulted with the Public Works 44.72 acres were developed as Parkway Interchange. The comparison of development in County’s NC and RES-2 land use designations (current FLU) versus the “Parkway Interchange” (proposed FLU) reveals that overall demand for water, sewer and solid waste are higher but still acceptable for urban intensities.

The applicant revised their traffic study based on Florida Department of Transportation advisory comments (not technical opposition comments), please see Attachment 3. Estimated traffic generation rates of 3,168 Average Daily Trips (ADT) for 581 units of multi-family housing (65% of land area) and 10,536 ADT for 25% of the land area being commercial and industrial uses, for a grand total of 13,705 ADT instead of 4,131 ADT if the property remained in the County with no water or sewer to allow property intensification. The traffic study trip generation assumes a maximum capacity build out as allowed by the Parkway Interchange mixed use district of 90% commercial and industrial with 42,153 ADT which is more than the 4,131 ADT that could occur if the property remains in the County. However, it is unlikely that the site will be built with 90% of the land occupied by commercial and industrial uses and more likely that there will be a mix of residential, commercial, industrial with some capture of the road trips internal to the overall Space Coast Town Center, also resulting in fewer trips on the surrounding roads.

This property currently has frontage on the Brandywine Lane, and like other property owners part of the property was used as a burrow pit to obtain fill for FDOT’s I-95 interchange. During various meetings with the developer and his team, staff made it clear that Brandywine Lane is not to be used as a point of access. However, any additional improvements needed to the St. Johns Heritage Parkway or US 192 will be assessed by the governing agencies, Brevard County and FDOT, with input by the City. The applicant provided a traffic exhibit (Exhibit C) with traffic counts for US 192 and I-95 (See traffic exhibit). Since the St Johns Heritage Parkway is newly completed there are very few traffic counts available at this time on this arterial road, indicating there is sufficient capacity to accommodate this development and others along the parkway.

Utilities: The property owner desires to connect to city water and sewer with the proposed development. There is capacity in our systems to accommodate the potential development of mixed use commercial and multifamily residential units on 44.72 acres.

Stormwater: Any development of a site requires that stormwater runoff from roads, sidewalks, roofs, etc. be kept on the developed site and not impact surrounding uses.

Fire & Police: Brevard County Fire and Rescue provides fire protection and emergency services. City of West Melbourne Police will serve the property.

School: Since part of the proposed mixed use development will have apartments, school concurrency must be evaluated by Brevard Public Schools with this future land use map amendment.

Staff Analysis—

There are two types of amendments to a comprehensive plan: small scale and large scale. The proposed amendment is considered large scale because the size of the property on the future land use map is more than ten (10) acres. The Planning and Zoning Board, as the City’s Local Planning Agency (163.3174 F.S.),

5I - 6 held its public hearing and deliberation hearing on the request and provided a recommendation to the City Council. City Council will ultimately determine whether to approve or deny the request.

City Code Citation: Land Development Regulations Section 66-520. Amendment process

State Requirements:

The following criteria have been reviewed to determine the appropriateness of the land use amendment request:

Florida Statutes Ch. 163, pt. II: The request is consistent with the provisions of Ch. 163, pt. II, F.S. which contain the criteria for required items needed for comprehensive plan future land use map amendments and sending these to the State and local agencies.

Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan: According to the land development regulations (LDR) Section 66-518, comprehensive plan amendments must be in compliance with the City’s comprehensive plan and state requirements. The consistency review of the request with the comprehensive plan predominantly assesses whether the request is consistent with the intended designation, discourages urban sprawl, creates neutral or minimal concurrency impacts and has minimal impacts to natural systems. The Future Land Use Element and other policies in other chapters of the comprehensive plan related to:

The following is City staff’s analysis of urban sprawl, minimal concurrency impacts and impacts to natural systems:

Future Land Use (FLU) Designation Evaluation FLU Policy 3.3c: “Parkway Interchange designations can be located at an intersection of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and arterial roads which are in a half-mile proximity to Interstate 95. This designation is intended to promote a mix of uses with the recognition that commercial types of uses will desire to be at the more prominent intersections and residential uses may be located behind the commercial activities.”

“PI Standards: Since the Parkway Interchange future land use designation encourages a high level of concentrated urban uses to promote internal trip capture by allowing a mix of varying uses, the following intensity and density levels are meant to promote urban development patterns: i. Size - Area must contain a minimum of ten (10) acres and maximum of 200 acres of land.”

Staff Comments – The proposed assignment of PI future land use designation to this 44.72 acre property is consistent with the future land use policy promoting a mix of uses on larger acreages. The Parkway Interchange land use is intended for a property such as this one that will be joined with the master plan which has the intersection of St. Johns Parkway and US 192 and is within close proximity to I-95.

5I - 7 FLU Policy 5.6c: “Future Land Use Amendments- Amendments to the future land use map as either large scale or small scale map amendments shall be guided by these principles in addition to statutory requirements:

c. All land uses – Each amendment shall be evaluated upon the proposed location, adjacent land use, proposed development (amount of units or square footage of non- residential), facility capacity and buffering of uses between non-like designations, except for mixed use designations.” Staff Comments – The future land use map change for this property to Parkway Interchange is in an area that soon will experience continued urbanization since the north segment of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway from U.S. 192 to the overpass of I-95 to Ellis Road interchange have been completed and many developers have expressed an interest in both interchanges, Ellis Road and US 192.

FLU Policy 3.2: “Mixed Land Uses… By creating relationships between land uses, the mixed land uses will promote an integrated development pattern that contributes to the community’s future planning goals and long range vision for the future.“

Staff Comments – There are only two other properties on the west side of I-95 that has the Parkway Interchange designation and that is the Space Coast Town Center and the property directly across the street from it. Having another property at an interchange with a mixed use designation instead of a single use designation allows planned integrated development on this vacant land instead of a patchwork quilt of different uses adjacent to each other, each with separate driveway cuts onto US 192. The Viera community is an example of successful mixed use development patterns.

Multi-modal Policy 3.1 Coordinated Land Use Practices and Transportation Systems: “Utilize the city’s long-range planning practices and development review to coordinate land use practices and transportation system expansions.…”

Staff Comments – Within several miles, there is direct access to over 6 aerospace and defense contractors, Harris, Embraer, DRS Technologies, Thales, Rockwell Collins, and Northrup Grumman, not including the numerous others that support these companies or are independent of these, representing thousands of jobs. Designating the 44.72 acres to be mixed use with commercial and multi-family residential units allows a mixture of development at a highway interchange which supports the city’s policies of coordinating land use and transportation systems.

Urban Sprawl

Comprehensive Plan amendments are reviewed to ensure compliance with the requirements of Florida Statutes, regarding urban sprawl.

Staff Comments—The proposed assignment of the PI (Parkway Interchange) future land use designation to a property that is poised to see an influx of urban development with the new intersection of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and the I-95 interchange of US 192 is a logical extension of urban uses being centered along major road intersections.

5I - 8 Public Service Standards and Infrastructure Systems Policy FLU Policy 1.5 states, “Provide the community with a good quality of life by ensuring that there is adequate public services and infrastructure capacity for current and future developments. The City will meet the community’s public service demands by addressing the following:

a. City’s capacity to deliver basic public services and maintain its public facilities and infrastructure systems.”

Staff Comments – The City has capacity to deliver basic water and sewer services and to continue serving its existing customer base. Water and sewer are along Columbia Lane which is to the south of this property.

Public Facilities Policy 1.4, Development Expansion, states, “Require development to connect to city public utility services as part of the site and development review process…”

Staff Comments – The City is requiring potable water and sewer services be provided to the site.

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine whether or not it is consistent with the LDRs.

LDR Section 66-519. Amendment application. Staff Comments—The submitted application complies with the code requirements for its content and completeness. Staff has determined the request is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies in the Future Land Use Element and other portions of the Comprehensive Plan.

Conclusion –

Staff has analyzed the proposal by the applicant, and applying the Parkway Interchange future land use designation for this property to be included in the Space Coast Town Center based on the intersection of a new limited access arterial road that is close to two highway interchanges and another major arterial is logical urban expansion at a major road intersection. The property that is subject to this proposed future land use map amendment furthers the City’s policies of increased development in concentrated areas thereby reducing the need for utility line upsizing or the creation of new roads, and furthering the policies for additional employment centers in the city limits besides the predominance of single family residential neighborhoods we experience as a bedroom community. The location of this proposed “Parkway Interchange” future land use also furthers the Comprehensive Plan desire to have areas of the city in close proximity to jobs and transit and this location is close to several major employers.

Public Notice:

The large scale comprehensive plan amendment was advertised with a map in the local section of the Florida Today in November and courtesy notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners within 500 feet of the property. As a result, some of the neighbors from Brandywine have contacted us and viewed the revised Space Coast Town Center plans which includes this 44 acres. The adoption of the large scale comprehensive plan amendment and second reading of the ordinance was advertised with a map in Florida Today in February 2021.

5I - 9 There was also a letter of opposition sent to the City by Mr. Ferrell’s attorney since the lender to the Space Coast Town Center is Mr. Ferrell. The City Attorney will address this letter and the City’s action.

Previous Action: On December 8, 2020, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 4 to 0 to recommend that City Council transmit the large scale comprehensive plan map amendment to the State agencies and in favor of the future land use map change to Gateway Interchange for the Fulcher property.

On December 15, 2020, City Council voted to approve the first reading of Ordinance Number 2020-14 and transmit the future land use map amendment to the State agencies for their review.

RECOMMENDATION

Adopt the future land use map amendment on the 44.72 acres of property located west of I-95 from Residential Two and Neighborhood Commercial to Parkway Interchange to the State reviewing agencies and approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2020-14 conditioned on the property being annexed.

RE: Fulcher Lake Property - Voluntary Annexation and Comprehensive Plan Amendment Applications

Dear Ms. Fischer:

Akerman LLP represents Fulcher Lake Enterprises, LLC ("Applicant"), the contract purchaser of the real property in unincorporated Brevard County known as Fulcher Lake 1 ("Property"), identified on the enclosed survey, vicinity map and legal description. The Property is owned by Fulcher ELF, LLC andFulcher Realty Investments, LLLP, each of which has executed the owner's authorization pages included in the enclosed applications.

The Applicant is respectfully seeking a voluntary annexation of the Property into the City of West Melbourne ("City"), and a corresponding amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan to designate the Property as Parkway Interchange on the City's Future Land Use Map, for the purposes of developing a mixed-use phased project at the Property.

Overview

The Property consists of approximately 44. 72 surveyed acres, and has a current Brevard County future land use designation of primarily Res-2 Residential (with a small northeast comer designated NC Neighborhood Commercial) and zoning designation of AU Agricultural Residential. It is located at the southwest comer of the intersection of U.S. 192 with 1-95, directly east of and abutting the Space Coast Town Center mixed-use project which was previously

TheProperty is also identifiedby Brevard County tax folio nos. 28-36-03-00-751, 28-36-03-00-760, 28-36- 03-00-762.

5I - 12 annexedinto the City and approved by the City Council. The Property is currently vacant, except forlimited cattle grazing at the southeast end. Current adjacent uses areas follows: (1) vacantand commercial to the north; (2) vacant and residential to the south; (3) 1-95 and commercial to the east; and (4) to the west, the site of the approved Space Coast Town Center.

Upon annexation, the Applicant is requesting that the Property be designated Parkway Interchange on the City's Future Land Use Map, with a corresponding zoning designation of Gateway Interchange. This is to allow a mixed-use development program currently proposed to consist of the following: (1) up to 325,000 s.f. of light industrial uses, 727 dwelling units and 162,000 s.f. of retail uses; or (2) alternatively, up to 450,000 s.f. of light industrial uses, 642 dwelling units and 185,000 s.f. of retail uses. The proposed project is a natural extension of the approved Space Coast Town Center already under development in the immediate area (as noted, directly abutting the Property to the west), and will contribute to the overall orderly, planned development of this portion of the City located west of 1-95 in the St. Johns Heritage Parkway corridor. As you are aware, the Applicant is in the process of preparing master plan and development agreement applications forthe Property, to be submitted to the City in the nearfuture.

The completed voluntary annexation and Comprehensive Plan amendment applications (including the transportationconcurrency application) are enclosed with this letter of intent.

Voluntary Annexation

The enclosed voluntary annexation application satisfies all relevant City requirements, in addition to the statutory voluntary annexation requirements under Section 171.044, Florida Statutes. All current owners of the Property (i.e., Fulcher ELF, LLC and Fulcher Realty Investments, LLLP, per the enclosed title opinion) have signed the owner's authorization sheets required to file the enclosed applications. Notably, the proposed annexation of the Property will result in a significant increase in the City's property tax base.

Comprehensive Plan Amendment

The enclosed Comprehensive Plan amendment application demonstrates consistency with the City's Comprehensive Plan, including the goals, objectives andpolicies, especially as follows:

• LandUse Policy 1.3 - Integrated Development Patterns. The proposed annexation and comprehensive plan amendment will allow for the orderly and planned development of the Property within the City, and will contribute to the orderly development of the growing area of the City west ofl-95 in the St. Johns Heritage Parkway corridor. This will improve the appearance, connectivity and safety of development on the Property and its surrounding environs through an orderly, integrated development pattern. The result will be a project consisting of a mixed­ use center blending residential uses and commercial and business services, with a required open space component.

• Land Use Policy 1.6 - Land Development Practices and Design Standards. The proposed annexation and comprehensive plan amendment are a clear extension of

5I - 13 the City's trajectory of future growth and land area needs, both in terms of geographic areaof proposed growth and types of uses proposed for the Property.

• LandUse Policy 3.3(c)-Parkway Interchange(PI). This futureland use category is appropriate for areas at an intersection of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and arterialroads within one-half mile ofl-95. It is intended to promote a mix of uses, including commercial, residential and light industrial. The Property is ideally located directly to the east of the existing Parkway Interchange area along the St. Johns Heritage Parkway south of U.S. 192, serving as a natural extension thereof moving eastward towards 1-95. As noted, the proposed development will be a phased, mixed-use project.

• Land Use Policy 5.6 -Future Land Use Map Amendments. Amendments to the City's Future Land Use Map are guided by certain principals, including (1) the ability of public facilities and services to be extended in an orderly and financially feasible manner, (2) consideration of the proposed location, adjacent land use, proposed development, facility capacity and buffering of uses and (3) adequate water and sewer capacity to meet growth demands. The proposed annexation and comprehensive plan amendment meet all these criteria. The large Space Coast Town Center project, already under development, lies directly to the west of the Property, providing ampleopportunity forthe extension of andconnection to public facilities and services; moreover, the Property is located in a high-growth area of Brevard County and the City, where infrastructure capacity is generally being increased and continues to be analyzed on a project-by-project basis to ensure sufficiencyof capacity forfuture growth. The proposed location and adjacent land uses are ideal for annexation and the Parkway Interchange future land use designation, because the Property is located directly to the east of the existing Parkway Interchangearea andis proposed to be developed with a mixed-use project appropriate for the area. Facility capacity and buffers will be addressed and accomplished through the City's master plan process and individual site plan approvals. The Propertywill have access to public water and sewer infrastructure, at a minimum through connections in the existing Space Coast Town Center area. Solid waste service and areas for on-site drainage are also available. As the proposed development makes its way through the City's concurrency review process, any necessary capacity upgrades will be analyzed and provided in consultation with the local water and sewer authorities.

Conclusion

The proposed annexation of the Property and the corresponding comprehensive plan amendment to designate it ParkwayInterchange satisfy all required statutoryand Comprehensive Plan criteria. The addition of the Property to the City's propertytax rolls will significantlyincrease the local tax base. In addition, the Property is ideally located abutting the existing Parkway Interchange area, serving as a logical extension of the approved Space Coast Town Center to the west. The annexation of the Property and future land use designation as proposed herein will furtherthe importantgoal of orderly mixed-use development in the area west ofl-95 and south of

5I - 14 U.S. 192. Notably, no building permit can be issued for the Property until an appropriate master plan and/or individual site plans are approved in accordance with the City's land development regulations.

We look forwardto continuing to work with you andyour staff on this proposed annexation and Comprehensive Planamendment. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.

Sincerely,

�� Benjamin Hedrick

INTRODUCTION

VHB has been retained by Fulcher Lake Enterprises, LLC, contract purchaser of the above‐referenced property (FULCHER LAKE PROPERTY), to conduct traffic engineering and transportation planning services as part of the proposed future land use change and annexation into the City of West Melbourne (the CITY) for the Fulcher Lake Property (the PROJECT). The proposed future land use comprehensive plan amendment (CPA) will change the future land use designation of a 44.72‐acre property from Brevard County that includes 43.5 acres of Residential (Res‐2) use and 1.22 acres of Neighborhood Commercial (NC) use to West Melbourne’s Parkway Interchange (P‐I) Future Land Use to enable the development of a master‐planned phased mixed‐use project as a continuation of the existing approved Space Coast Town Center project, with specific policies limiting development. The subject property consists of three contiguous parcels 28‐36‐03‐00‐751, 28‐36‐03‐00‐760, and 28‐36‐03‐00‐762 and is located generally on the south side of US 192, west of I‐95 in Brevard County. The site location is shown in Figure 1.

The methodology and procedures used in this analysis are consistent with the guidelines for the CITY and the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (FDEO).

TRIP GENERATION FOR THE EXISTING VS PROPOSED FLU DESIGNATION

The average daily trips and the PM peak‐hour trips for the current and proposed future land use (FLU) districts are listed in Table 1. The site has Brevard County Res‐2 and NC Future Land Use (FLU) designations, which allows up to a maximum intensity of 39,857 sf of commercial (1.22 acres * 43,560 sf/ac * 0.75 FAR) and maximum density of two (2) dwelling units per acre for 43.5 acres (87 DU). The trip generation was determined using the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) document, Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition using land use code (LUC) 210 for single family dwelling units and LUC 820 for the commercial development. First, the existing FLU trip generation potential was examined. Based on the allowable intensities and densities of the currently assigned FLU, a maximum development program of 87 single‐family dwelling units and 39,857 sf of commercial was used. Therefore, under the current future land use designation, there will potentially be a total of 4,131 daily trips and 364 peak‐hour trips.

Next, the maximum development potential of the requested Parkway Interchange was examined. Based on the City of West Melbourne’s Comprehensive Plan, Parkway Interchange allows for a mix of uses, including commercial land uses, multifamily residential, places of worship, community centers, government buildings and facilities, light industrial, and public spaces, parks, and other public resources. Maximum densities include 20 dwelling units per acre and 1.0 FAR for non‐residential uses with a maximum of 22 dwelling units per acre with up to 25 dwelling units per acres upon satisfying certain bonus criteria. However, these densities are restricted by a maximum land coverage, which allows for up to 90% commercial or industrial use, 35% institutional, and 65% residential. Also, a minimum of 25% commercial or industrial use and 10% public/open space is required. Based on these criteria, the highest and best use potential under the Parkway Interchange Future Land Use includes 90% commercial/industrial and 10% open space. This equates to 1,753,203 square feet of commercial/industrial use (44.72 ac * 43,560 sf/ac * 90%). Land use code 820 was used as the most intense use. This results in a potential total of 42,153 daily trips and 4,329 peak‐hour trips.

The difference in trips between the current and proposed future land use shows an increase of 38,022 daily trips and 3,965 peak‐hour trips. A set of roadway capacity analyses is provided in Exhibits A and B that presents existing conditions and future conditions with project traffic, respectively. The future roadway capacity table

5I - 18 Ref: 63721.00 January 29, 2021 Page 4

shows six (6) segments that will be over capacity compared to the three (3) segments that are shown as deficient for existing conditions. However, it should be noted that these deficiencies in capacity do not reflect the development program with significantly reduced densities of the approved Space Coast Town Center project, which will spread the entitled development into the Fulcher Lake Property. The site will also need to comply with the stormwater and site design requirements by the City of West Melbourne.

SUMMARY

The proposed future land use change from Brevard County Res‐2 and NC to City of West Melbourne Parkway Interchange (P‐I) shows a net increase in trips using the highest and best use land uses and intensities. The roadway segment tables show the impacted segments for existing and horizon year conditions. The highest and best use intensity was selected to conform to the requirements of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, however, the Fulcher Lake Property will be incorporated into the existing Space Coast Town Center entitlements. The 44.72‐acres of Fulcher Lake Property will be developed as a continuation of the 154 acres of the approved Space Coast Town Center project, located immediately abutting to the west, which already has a future land use of Parkway Interchange.

Although the Comprehensive Plan Amendment provides an analysis of the highest and best use scenario for the Fulcher Lake Property, this land is intended to be absorbed into the Space Coast Town Center entitlements and no additional development beyond the 3,932 peak‐hour trips attributed to Space Coast Town Center is planned. Therefore, the CPA for Fulcher Lake Property should be recommended for approval by the City of West Melbourne.

We appreciate the opportunity to provide this analysis and evaluation to the City of West Melbourne and FDEO. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Proposed zoning APPLICATION map FORM

Background Information:

This is a request by a property owner for the City to rezone a portion of property from AU (County zoning of Agricultural Use) to GTWY-I (Gateway Interchange). The following information has been compiled to assist the Board in making a recommendation concerning this request.

5J - 2 March 2, 2021 The applicant submitted a concept plan for the mixed use commercial and multi-family development (see Attachment 2), and this layout will become part of the binding master concept plan, illustrating the developer’s split of commercial versus multi-family residential uses.

Benjamin Akerman, PA., Akerman LLP, agent for Fulcher Lake Applicant Enterprises – Total 44.72 acres – Vacant land to be included with Owners/Acreage/Existing Use the Space Coast Town Center master plan Existing Zoning: AU (Agricultural Use County zoning) Proposed Zoning: GTWY-I (Gateway Interchange) Proposed Use: Future commercial and multi-family mixed use

The applicant desires to construct a mixed use commercial and multi-family residential development (See Concept Plan) on 44.72 acres of land. The following information has been compiled to assist the Board in making a recommendation concerning the rezoning request only. The applicant has chosen to add this property to his overall master development to the west known as Space Coast Town Center with a general layout of the buildings and uses shown in the concept plan which will be added to the development agreement. Minor changes and decreases are allowed but anything else may need re-approval by City Council.

Surrounding Properties:

Zoning District Direction Existing Use Jurisdiction (see attached maps) Vacant land in the Space Coast Town City of West GTWY-I (Gateway North Center master plan Melbourne Interchange) Single-Family Residential – Brevard County AU (Agricultural Use ) and South Brandywine Estates and agriculture PUD (Planned Unit Development) Interstate 95 and east of this is vacant FDOT right-of-way East land and West C-P (Commercial Parkway) Melbourne Vacant land in the Space Coast Town City of West GTWY-I (Gateway West Center master plan Melbourne Interchange)

Environmental Site Data:

Flood Zone: The property has some portions with Flood Zone “AE” as determined by the 100- year base flood elevation maps which means the buildings will have to be at a certain elevation and additional retention pond storage may be needed, or they can request a waiver to the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) if they meet the FEMA criteria.

Natural Resources: The impact on natural resources will be assessed when developed through the site plan process. If there are wetlands on site, these will be either saved or mitigated as determined by the St. Johns River Water Management District.

5J - 3 March 2, 2021 Adequate Public Services/Facilities:

The impact of a possible development on water and sewer was analyzed as part of the large-scale future land use designation evaluation. There are no negative impacts to the City’s water or sewer facilities. School capacity has been analyzed since this has some residential development.

Staff Analysis:

The applicant is requesting to rezone the property as follows: Acreage/location Current Zoning Proposed Zoning 44.72 acres at the new AU (Agricultural Use) in unincorporated GTWY-I, Gateway Interchange interchange at St. John’s Brevard County Heritage Parkway and I- 95

In reviewing the proposed rezoning request, the City assesses whether the request meets the minimum requirements in the Land Development Regulations and whether the request is consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan.

Development Potential and Zoning Suitability:

The GTWY-I zoning designation is allowed under the City’s PI, Parkway Interchange mixed use land use designation for which the applicant is also requesting a large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment. The GTWY-I zoning is compatible with the land uses proposed to the west since non-residential uses, particularly light industrial is frequently used in proximity to arterials and highways and the larger employment centers. The developer has laid out the 44 acres so that the apartments will be abutting Brandywine Estates and the vacant land to the south with no direct access to Brandywine Lane. City staff is satisfied that joining this property with the Space Coast Town Center allows the site to be zoned GTWY- I.

The site is in an area where other properties along US 192 have the GTWY-I zoning and this continues the rezoning trend along the parkway to allow large parcels such as the subject parcel to have the flexibility of a mixture of uses. There is no doubt that the area next to the intersection node of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192 will develop. This development potential is strengthened because near this existing I-95 interchange, half a mile away is the new interchange of I-95 and limited access 4-lane arterial - St. Johns Heritage Parkway.

Based on the existing land use in the area (commercial on the east side of I-95, and mixed use to the west), and some vacant land to the south, the property is suitable for the GTWY-I zoning district. Once the rezoning is approved by City Council, any subsequent specific subdivision plans may have to undergo public hearings and the public would have an opportunity to discuss specific development layout. The property owner has immediate plans for creating a subdivision and selling the parcels to various developers and the subdivision process also affords citizens the ability to provide feedback.

City Codes (Zoning): A statement from the City’s GTWY-I zoning district describes the area and reads, “Sec. 98-840. - Intent (a) In 2015-2016, Brevard County constructed sections of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway from Malabar Road north to US 192 (SR 500, also known as West New Haven Avenue)

5J - 4 March 2, 2021 as a limited access arterial. The roadway is intended to provide another north-south route, in addition to the existing routes, for vehicular movement from South Brevard to Central Brevard. The properties that are adjacent to the St. Johns Heritage Parkway have negotiated limited access to specific access points on the parkway with Brevard County. This area is designated as Parkway Interchange on the city's future land use map in recognition of the probable future commercial character of the area.”

This paragraph reiterates what staff has stated in this report regarding the future commercial character of the area west of I-95 and the enhanced vehicular circulation in this area as consistent with this intent statement of the GTWY-I zoning district.

Consistency with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan:

The Large Scale Map Amendment staff report addresses the factors used to determine consistency of the future land use designation with the goals, objectives and policies in the Comprehensive Plan. These policies have been adequately met and the Florida Statute requirements for comprehensive plan amendments have been satisfied. It is reasonable to have a development pattern in a specific area that contains a variety of commercial and multi-family uses next to each other and these uses typically buffer less dense uses such as single family neighborhoods in urban environments.

Consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR):

Staff also reviews the request to determine if it is consistent with other LDRs.

Sec. 66-287 - Applications. Staff Comments - The submitted applications comply with the code requirements for their content and completeness.

Sec. 66-288 - Review and recommendation on application. The rezoning request is forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Board for its recommendation and then to City Council for its determination. These findings are based on the LDRs, Comprehensive Plan, surrounding conditions, and the facts surrounding the case.

Staff Comments - The GTWY-I zoning designation is allowed under the City’s PI future land use designation as long as the comprehensive plan map amendment is approved. This GTWY-I zoning accommodates an intense degree of development while maintaining a balance of open space, in a mixed use project. Sec. 98-846 – Performance standards. (GTWY-I, Gateway Interchange District) “(1) General provisions: a. The placement of the Gateway Interchange zoning district shall be consistent with the Parkway Interchange future land use policy which states that properties to have this zoning and future land use can only be at the intersection of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and an arterial road, both of which must be within one-half mile to I-95. b. The minimum area for application of the GTWY-I zoning district shall be ten acres of a contiguous area located adjacent to arterial roads. c. The GTWY-I zoning district shall at a minimum contain three types of land use groups. d. No one land use group shall comprise more than 90 percent of a designated GTWY-I zoned area. e. All utilities, including telephone, television, electrical and other infrastructure shall be installed underground except for utility cabinets, lift stations or other devices that are required to be above ground.”

5J - 5 March 2, 2021 Staff Comments - The property to be rezoned meets the minimum project area and location requirements in the GTWY-I district and the performance standard. As mentioned previously, the property rezoning is consistent with the existing master plan for the Space Coast Town Center zoned GTWY-I along the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and flanking US 192/SR 500. Planning staff will review the revised development agreement once this is submitted. The table below describes GTWY-I uses as compared to the uses allowed in the existing AU zoning. Comparison of A-U and GTWY-I Zoning:

Comparison Feature AU (County zoning district) GTWY-I

Agricultural pursuits, dude ranches, fish camps, zoos, heliports, skateboard ramps, cell towers, foster Industrial, Institutional, Principle Uses homes, single-family dwelling including tiny houses, Commercial, Multi-family power substations

Maximum Intensity Not applicable 45% Minimum Lot Area 2.5 acres 43,560 SF Minimum Lot Width 150 feet 125 feet Minimum Lot Depth 150 feet 125 feet 354 feet for residential structures; 45 feet for 65 feet Maximum Height agricultural structures 120 feet for hotels Minimum Setbacks*: Front 125 feet 50 feet Side, Interior 50 feet 25 feet Side, Corner 25 feet 40 feet Rear 50 feet 30 feet

Staff Comments – Regarding the use table, as described under the row above labeled, “Principal Uses”, the AU and GTWY-I uses are vastly different. There is a large difference between the possible residential agricultural and industrial uses that the site could currently be developed as and the uses of a mixed-use project as generally described in the GTWY-I column. The 44.72-acre site exceeds the minimum lot depth, and lot width of the GTWY-I district and is therefore compliant with the code dimensions.

Public Notice – The rezoning request was advertised in November, 2020 in Florida Today and notices were mailed to property owners within 500 feet to advise them of these public hearings on the rezoning and future land use map amendment. As a result, some of the neighbors from Brandywine have contacted us and viewed the revised Space Coast Town Center plans which include this 44 acres. The second reading/adoption of the rezoning ordinance was advertised in Florida Today in February 2021.

There was also a letter of opposition sent to the City by Mr. Ferrell’s attorney since the lender to the Space Coast Town Center is Mr. Ferrell. The City Attorney will address this letter and the City’s action.

Previous Action – On December 8, 2020, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 4 to 0 to recommend to City Council to approve the rezoning with the condition that the annexation and large scale

5J - 6 March 2, 2021 comprehensive plan map amendment be approved, and that there be no driveway connection to Brandywine Lane. Numerous residents spoke at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting acknowledging the proposed development but against any connection to Brandywine Lane.

City Council conducted its public hearing on December 15, 2020 and voted to approve the first reading of the rezoning ordinance.

Important Concept Plan Change

As a result of the December 8, 2020 Planning and Zoning Board hearing, the developer has changed the concept plan to indicate no driveway connection to Brandywine Lane, instead relying on their own internal roadway system to the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and US 192 (see Attachment 3). Staff communicated this change to numerous citizens and staff received this revised concept plan on December 10, 2020.

Conclusion

The rezoning of this property would be compatible with the surrounding properties and is consistent with its integration with the large development of the “Space Coast Town Center”. The proposed development concept plan shown in the attached of commercial and multi-family uses is consistent with the promotion of mixed uses in the Gateway Interchange zoning district.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Approve the second reading of Ordinance Number 2020-15, the rezoning request from AU (Agricultural Use) to GTWY-I (Gateway Interchange) with the condition that the annexation and large-scale comprehensive plan map amendment are approved.

RE: Fulcher Lake Property - Rezoning Application

Dear Ms. Fischer:

Akennan LLP represents Fulcher Lake Enterprises, LLC ("Applicant"), the contract purchaser of the real property in unincorporated Brevard County known as Fulcher Lake ("Property"), identified on the enclosed legal description, vicinity map and survey. 1 The Property is owned by Fulcher ELF, LLC and Fulcher Realty Investments,LLLP, each of which has executed the owner's authorization pages included in the enclosed applications.

As a companion to the Applicant's related annexation and Comprehensive Plan amendment applications for the Property, the Applicant is respectfullyseeking a rezoning of the Property from the current Brevard County designation of AU Agricultural to the City of West Melbourne("City") designation of Gateway Interchange, for thepurposes of developing a mixed-use phased project. The proposed rezoning to Gateway Interchange is consistent with the Applicant's proposed Parkway Interchange future land use designation for the Property, as the City has previously detennined that development under the Gateway Interchange zoning district regulations is consistent with (and also necessary to be done under) the Parkway Interchange future land use category. Ultimately, the rezoning is necessary forthe Applicant to proceed withthe project.

The Property consists of approximately 44. 72 surveyed acres, and has a current Brevard County futureland use designation of primarily Res-2 Residential (with a small northeastcomer designated NC Neighborhood Commercial) and zoning designation of AU Agricultural

The Property is also identified by Brevard Countytax folio nos. 28-36-03-00-751, 28-36-03-00-760, 28-36- 03-00-762.

5J - 10 Residential. It is located at the southwest comer ofthe intersection ofU.S. 192 with I-95, directly east of and abutting the Space Coast Town Center mixed-use project which was previously annexed into the City and approved by the City Council (and also has respective futureland use and zoning designations of Parkway Interchange and Gateway Interchange). The Property is currently vacant, except for limited cattle grazing at the southeast end. Current adjacent uses are as follows: (1) vacant and commercial to the north; (2) vacant and residential to the south; (3) I- 95 and commercial to the east; and (4) to the west, the siteof the approved Space Coast Town Center.

The Applicant's request that upon annexation the Property be rezoned to Gateway Interchange (with a corresponding Future Land Use Map designation of Parkway Interchange) is to allow a mixed-use development program currently proposed ofthe following: (I) up to 325,000 s.f. oflight industrial uses, 727 dwelling units and 162,000 s.f. of retail uses; or (2) alternatively, up to 450,000 s.f. oflight industrialuses, 642 dwelling units and 185,000 s.f. of retail uses. The project is a natural extension of the approved Space Coast Town Center project already under development directly to the west ofthe Property, and will contribute to the overall orderly, planned development of this portion of the City located west of I-95 in the St. Johns Heritage Parkway corridor. The Applicant is in the process ofpreparing a M�ster Development plan forthe Fulcher Lake Property in accordance with the Gateway Interchange regulations, and will be submitting that to the City in place ofa rezoning concept plan.

We look f01ward to continuing to work with you and your staffon this proposed rezoning. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.

Sincerely,

Benjamin Hedrick

5. PUBLIC HEARINGS

Amendment to the Election Code. City Clerk Hanscom presented the second reading of Ordinance No. 2021-07 which would amend Chapter 22 of the City’s code to reflect changes made to the City’s charter by referendum in the November 2020 election. This change reflects language that is duplicated and would need to be amended so that there is no conflict.

City Attorney Richardson read Ordinance No. 2021-07 in title only:

ORDINANCE NO. 2021-07

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF WEST MELBOURNE, BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 22, ELECTIONS, SECTION 22.2. CANDIDATE QUALIFICATIONS PERIOD, TO REFLECT CHANGES MADE BY THE ELECTORS IN THE NOVEMBER 2020 ELECTION; PROVIDING FOR INCLUSION IN THE CODE, SEVERABILITY, CONFLICTS, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Mayor Rose opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.

Council Member Bentley moved to approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 2021- 07 conforming the election code to the amended Charter. Council Member Phrampus seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

Allow Gas Stations in the Gateway Interchange Zoning District. Planning Director Fischer presented the first reading of Ordinance No. 2021-08, changing the Gateway Interchange zoning district to allow gas stations with limited placement and performance criteria, which would apply to all areas that are zoned Gateway Interchange. She explained this was requested by the developer of the Space Coast Town Center. She provided a history of the Gateway Interchange district explaining why gas stations were not originally included in 2016. She said that City staff has suggested that gas stations be allowed by conditional use. She reviewed what is being done in other local governments with multi-use districts. The Planning and Zoning Board met on February 10 and approved the amendment and asked that Council consider asking for a feature that contains art in public places.

City Attorney Richardson read Ordinance No. 2021-08 in title only:

ORDINANCE NO. 2021-08

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF WEST MELBOURNE, BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 98, ZONING, ARTICLE III. DISTRICTS, OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES TO AMEND DIVISION 22, GATEWAY INTERCHANGE DISTRICT (GTWY-I), SECTION 98-843 CONDITIONAL USES, TO ALLOW GAS STATIONS AS A CONDITIONAL USE IN THE GTWY-I (GATEWAY INTERCHANGE) DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;

7A - 2 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 3

PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Mayor Rose opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.

Council Member Phrampus asked about the development on all four corners of the intersection of U.S. 192 and St. Johns Heritage Parkway and the possibility of annexation of the one property that was not in the City. City Attorney Richardson commented that the policy of the City Council has been to have voluntary annexations.

Council Member Bentley stated the City had originally made a point of not allowing service stations in that zoning district. Planning Director Fischer agreed but stated that there had not been a full analysis on the impact of a gas station when the district was originally created. Since there was agreement among the Council, there did not appear to be a need for more dialogue on the issue of including service stations. Council Member Bentley commented there were already too many gas stations with four service stations within a quarter mile.

Council Member Bentley asked about access to municipal utilities. City Manager Morgan explained that all four corners of the St. Johns Heritage Parkway and U.S. 192 had access to City utilities and three of them were in the City of West Melbourne.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore asked if the proposal could be amended to allow only one service station. Therefore, the maximum that could be developed at the U.S. 192/St. Johns Heritage Parkway intersection would be two gas stations. City Attorney Richardson reminded Council that the proposed change would modify the Gateway Interchange zoning district and was not specific to one property. Deputy Mayor Dittmore suggested that the language could state that there could be no more than two gas stations at any four-way intersection.

Council Member Young commented that limiting gas stations or convenience stores to the eastside of I-95 along U.S. 192 would provide no relief to an area that is already congested.

Council Member Batcheldor commented that adding gas stations was inconsistent with what was envisioned for this area. The intended location of the gas station would create turning conflicts. He stated that it may be better to encourage a gas station west of St. Johns Heritage Parkway. Planning Director Fischer noted that the code could not be site specific.

Council Member McDow questioned on what options there would be for this area. He understood that there was congestion in the area.

Mayor Rose commented that the Space Coast Town Center was a gateway to West Melbourne and it was something that should be attractive. He asked if gas stations were allowed in other mixed use zones. Planning Director Fischer stated that six of the ten mixed use districts in other municipalities allowed gas stations.

7A - 3 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 4

Council Member Phrampus stated he had driven through the area and agreed that drivers using I-95 would currently have to go east for a gas station. He stated that it would be more beneficial to have the gas station along St. Johns Heritage Parkway. He suggested that this be allowed but restricted by a development agreement to be located along St. Johns Heritage Parkway.

Council Member Phrampus stated that the Planning and Zoning Board made a change regarding store front windows, which was not shown in the ordinance. City Attorney Richardson explained that the ordinance was advertised for public hearing and the Planning and Zoning Board recommended the change. The ordinance shown before Council reflects those recommended changes. The City Council would need to make that change between first and second reading. He noted that the title of the ordinance was broad enough that it would not need to be changed.

Council Member Phrampus said he liked the artwork at Cumberland Farms but felt it was out of place, and suggested that it be included in the green space area as part of the total development.

Edgar Jones, principal for the Space Coast Town Center development, spoke on the magnitude of the project and noted that this property was not the only property located west of I-95. He noted that having a service station at the intersection of St. Johns Heritage Parkway was not the statement they hoped this development would make to the community. He reminded Council that their original request had only asked for one gas station.

Council discussed the proposed location of the gas station and the developers design to not have it located at the main intersection of U.S. 192 and St. Johns Heritage Parkway. Council Member Batcheldor stated that he would prefer to see an amendment to the master plan showing the location of the gas station prior to approving the zoning change.

Mayor Rose asked if they could limit the number of gas pumps. Planning Director Fischer stated that it could not be limited. Mayor Rose encouraged placement of charging station. City Attorney Richardson noted that this would be better stated in the master plan and may not be located on the lot proposed for a service station. Mayor Rose commented that he would like to see criteria added for architectural design.

Council Member Bentley moved to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 2021-08, changing the Gateway Interchange zoning district to allow gas stations with placement and performance criteria and limiting to one gas station. Council Member Young seconded the motion, which passed 6-1, with Council Member Batcheldor opposed.

Second Revised West Melbourne Interchange Center Traffic Impact Fee Agreement. Planning Director Fischer presented the Second Amendment to the Traffic Impact Fee Credit Agreement between Brevard County, the City of West Melbourne, and Benchmark Melbourne 35 Associates to allow the square footage retail conversion table to be revised for a day care use. She provided a background of the agreement for

7A - 4 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 5

the property along Hollywood Boulevard, just north of Palm Bay Road. She noted that the first amendment had been made in 2018 to add the trip conversion category for hotels. The revision before Council tonight would provide for trip equivalency for day care use. She noted that the added use would not change the 5,483 daily trips.

Mayor Rose asked about the gas station on the corner of Palm Bay Road and Hollywood Boulevard. Planning Director Fischer stated that it is not included with the parcel. The commercial uses along Palm Bay Road were not part of the original subdivision proposal.

Robert Robb, civil engineer for the West Melbourne Interchange Center, explained what was being proposed for the different parcels, including a hotel and day care center. He noted the hotel had already been permitted. The other undeveloped areas did not have tenants proposed. He explained that the original proposal was for a shopping center.

Mayor Rose asked if there would be any future traffic improvements proposed. Mr. Robb stated the improvements along Hollywood Boulevard have been completed according to the County’s request. Planning Director Fischer noted that if the number of trips proposed went beyond the 5,400 trips, there could be traffic improvements required.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to approve the Second Amendment to the Traffic Impact Fee Credit Agreement between Brevard County, the City of West Melbourne, and Benchmark Melbourne 35 Associates to allow the square footage retail conversion table to be revised for a day care use. Council Member Phrampus seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

6. PUBLIC FORUM

There were no comments made during the public forum.

7. CONSENT AGENDA

Council Member Batcheldor moved to approve the following consent agenda. Deputy Mayor Dittmore seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

• Approve the Regular City Council meeting minutes for February 2, 2021.

• Adopt Resolution No. 2021-08 opposing the preemption of local government regulation of the construction of energy infrastructure, and the prohibition of local governments from implementing restrictions on changes to energy infrastructure, as proposed by Senate Bill 856.

• Adopt Resolution No. 2021-09 opposing the elimination of statutory authorization for regional planning councils in Florida, as proposed by Senate Bill 62.

7A - 5 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 6

8. ACTION AGENDA

Florida Department of Environmental Protection Grant Agreement. Deputy City Manager Mills presented the grant agreement for a stormwater project at the treatment plant. The project proposed would improve draining to the Crane Creek district and improve the water quality. This would be the third and final agreement for this project, which had an estimated cost of $1.47 million. There would be $485,000 from St. Johns River Water Management District and $160,000 from the Indian River Lagoon. The balance for the project would be paid by the City which may be covered through the sale of fill dirt.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to accept the $750,000 grant agreement with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection for constructing stormwater improvements at the Ray Bullard Water Reclamation Facility, and authorize the City Manager to execute the grant agreement on behalf of the City. Council Member Bentley seconded the motion.

Mayor Rose asked how the fill dirt would be sold. Deputy City Manager Mills believed that there would not be any issues as all developers would be interested in purchasing the fill dirt.

Mayor Rose asked when the project would get started. Deputy City Manager Mills stated that he hoped to go out to bid in April or May. He expected the project to be finished in the spring of next year.

Council then voted on the motion, which passed unanimously.

Extension of Agreement for Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste Collection, Processing and Disposal Services with Waste Management Inc. of Florida. City Attorney Richardson presented a proposal to consider the expiring agreement with Waste Management for solid waste collection in the City. The current contract expires September 30, 2021, with an option for an extension of two years.

City Attorney Richardson commented that he believed the City had been able to negotiate a fair and favorable agreement with a negotiated contract extension in 2018. Recent experience has shown that governments are seeing significant price increases for trash collection and the City was in a favorable position. He provided a list of cost information for commercial rates for other municipalities in the County, noting that the average increase according to the CPI in the south region was about 1.8 percent.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to direct the City Manager to exercise the City’s contractual option to extend the term of the Agreement for an additional period of two years, until September 30, 2023. Council Member Bentley seconded the motion.

Council Member Bentley asked if this could be extended past the two years. Dina Reider-Hicks, Public Affairs Manager with Waste Management, stated that they could not answer that tonight but felt it was a good analysis of the shift industry wide over the

7A - 6 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 7

last three years. In many cases, the cost increase for collection was related to changes in global recycling and processing.

Mayor Rose asked about recycling and Ms. Reider-Hicks explained that they were continuing to accept glass in single stream but some municipalities had eliminated glass because the glass chards contaminate other products such as cardboard. There is a cost to Waste Management to have the glass hauled away. She stated the biggest contaminant to the recycling was the plastic bags, which do not belong,

Mayor Rose asked about the delays because of the pandemic. Ms. Reider-Hicks stated that COVID-19 had caused some issues with staffing but they were making it work. Most of the office workers continued to work from home.

Council then voted on the motion to direct the City Manager to exercise the City’s contractual option to extend the term of the Agreement, which passed unanimously.

Resolution Accepting County Rights-of-Way. City Manager Morgan presented a resolution to accept several rights-of-way from the County. One was for Fell Road between Minton Road and the County’s Max K. Rodes Park. The right-of-way would allow the City to complete a water main loop as part of the improvements to the circulation in advance of the water plant. The resolution would also accept the rights-of- way for Meadowlane Avenue south of U.S. 192 and Helen Street between Meadowlane Avenue and Minton Road. This right-of-way would be used for a sewer force main replacement.

Council Member Phrampus asked about the negative costs for accepting the rights-of- way. City Manager Morgan stated the City would assume the maintenance of the rights-of-way. He stated that Fell Road was in good shape and did not expect maintenance for 10 years. For Helen Road and Meadowlane Avenue, the base is good and would only need to be micro-sealed.

Mayor Rose noted that there had been some issues with the gas station and possible contamination to the area along U.S. 192. City Manager Morgan stated that both Melbourne and West Melbourne have water mains in the area but the area of concern was east of the right-of-way.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to adopt Resolution No. 2021-07 accepting from Brevard County the roadway and roadway drainage swale right-of-way for Fell Road between Minton Road and Max K. Rodes Park, and the roadway and roadway drainage swale rights-of-way for Meadowlane Avenue south of U.S. 192 and Helen Street between Minton Road and Meadowlane Avenue. Council Member Batcheldor seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

Proposed Action Strategies to Implement City Council Vision and Goals. City Manager Morgan presented a summary of the action strategies as proposed by City Council at the December 6 strategic planning workshop. The consultant had presented his report in January and an outline of the strategies had been distributed to the City

7A - 7 Regular City Council Minutes February 16, 2021 Page 8

staff for the development of action strategies. Attached to the agenda was a three-year look ahead that would be used by Council for their budget review.

Council Member Phrampus suggested the word “future” be removed from the vision statement.

Council Member McDow commented that he was glad to see that there were sustainability strategies imbedded in the actions.

Council Member Bentley stated that he liked the process that the Council followed for the budget process and would not want this to change.

Mayor Rose reviewed several items on the list and noted there may not be agreement to move forward with some of the actions shown in the report. Council Member Batcheldor stated that his interpretation was that this was to be used as a guide and was not a commitment to funds. Mayor Rose agreed and stated that there may be other items added during the budget process.

Council Member Batcheldor agreed that the word “future” should be removed from the vision statement and suggested that the statement that was reviewed at the December 6 meeting be used, which stated: “The City of West Melbourne is committed to being a vibrant, growing, and caring community that continually seeks excellence for residents. Our vision is to grow West Melbourne into the Space Coast’s premier location for homes, careers, and families.”

Council Member Young stated there was a great deal of work that had gone into preparing the strategies. She agreed that it should be used as a guide.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to amend the vision statement as suggested by Council Member Batcheldor and use the action strategies as a guideline in the budget workshops. Council Member McDow seconded the motion.

Upon further discussion, the motion was withdrawn and the following motion was made.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore moved to amend the vision statement as suggested by Council Member Batcheldor to: “The City of West Melbourne is committed to being a vibrant, growing, and caring community that continually seeks excellence for residents. Our vision is to grow West Melbourne into the Space Coast’s premier location for homes, careers, and families.” Council Member McDow seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

Mayor Rose stated that they should bring this back in the budget process and see if there were items that should be added or removed.

9. MANAGEMENT REPORTS

2020 Police Department Annual Report. Police Chief Wiley presented the 2020 Police Department Annual Report. Council raised questions regarding position control for School Resource Officers, use of Narcan, update on the new BMW motorcycles and the motor patrol unit, training for officers, crime statistics and mapping, and task force officers.

10. CITY COUNCIL REPORTS

Council Member McDow reported he had attended several different committee meetings including a ground water study, the Palm Bay Chamber luncheon and several others. He thanked the City Attorney for sending out information on the human relations ordinance and recommended that the City remain engaged but did not believe a special ordinance was necessary at this time. He noted that of the 17 goals set by the United Nations, the 11th goal dealt with sustainability issues for cities and communities. He reported he would be attending the Business Advisory Board meeting on Monday.

Council Member Phrampus and Council Member Batcheldor had no report.

Deputy Mayor Dittmore thanked that staff on the problems associated with the 7600 block of Coral Drive and noted that the condition of the street does not represent the standards for West Melbourne.

Council Member Bentley reported he had attended the Palm Bay Chamber luncheon and reported on several items from the presentation from the CEO of Florida Power & Light.

Council Member Young apprised Council on the Transportation Planning Organization and reminded everyone of the meeting scheduled for the following evening on an update on the Minton Road Feasibility Study. She stated that updated information had been sent to Council Members on the Florida Department of Transportation Five-Year Plan, which included the widening of Ellis Road and adding a turn lane at the U.S. 192/Hollywood Boulevard intersection. She encouraged Council to read Senate Bill 856, which would be devastating to the cities. She was also working to update the Tourist Development Council’s website to include restaurants in West Melbourne.

Mayor Rose reported on several meetings he had attend including the Palm Bay Chamber luncheon and the Economic Development Commission. He stated the opening for the Mayors’ Fitness Challenge had occurred the previous Saturday and encouraged all participants to enter their minutes of activity every week. He noted that the update to the Minton Road Feasibility Study would be the following day and expressed concerns with the proposed reduction in the width of the travel lanes. He also commented on the condition of the road surface for Doherty Drive and that a signalized intersection was needed at Doherty Drive/Henry Avenue. Mayor Rose also questioned the closure of the splash pad for maintenance and the extension of the park hours once daylight savings time ends.

Members on the Board must hold a current Business Tax Receipt with the City or be employed by a business that operates within the City, or operate a business within one-mile of the City limits. The Board meets on even numbered months on the fourth Monday.

7E - 1 March 2, 2021 DISCUSSION

Background

As authorized by City Council Resolution No. 2019-17, on August 27, 2019, the City of West Melbourne applied to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) for a federally- funded grant seeking to improve the drainage in the City’s Melbourne Estates neighborhood that suffered significant flood damage during . On January 30, 2020, the City was notified of the grant award, and on August 27, 2020, the City received the grant agreement document from the Department of Economic Opportunity. On September 24, 2020, the City Council accepted the agreement as presented by DEO and authorized the Mayor to sign the agreement on behalf of the City. On October 19, 2020, an authorized representative of DEO signed the grant agreement.

On January 29, 2021, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for administrative and grant compliance support services for the awarded grant. The RFP was posted on DemandStar, an RFP and bidding site used by most consulting firms and contractors, the RFP was posted on the City’s web site, and the RFP was direct mailed to the known providers of these type of services in the State of Florida. A copy of the RFP is attached as “Attachment 1”.

As of the February 23, 2021, RFP submission deadline, only one firm submitted a response to the City’s RFP. The responding firm was Summit Professional Services, Inc.

On February 24, 2021, three City representatives, City Manager Scott Morgan, Deputy City Manager/Capital Projects Director Keith Mills, and Finance Director Margi Starkey met as a selection committee to consider the proposal submitted. The group found the firm’s submittal to adequately document its excellent background, experience and qualifications to perform the needed grant administration and compliance support work. In addition, the City of West Melbourne has had successful direct experience with Summit Professional Services on similar Community Development Block grant projects in the past, where the firm assisted the City in achieving excellent documentation of grant condition compliance.

Recommendation

In sum, the selection committee recommends that the City Council select Summit Professional Services, Inc to perform grant administration and compliance assistance services and authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement with the firm. ATTACHMENT

SUBJECT

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report RECOMMENDATION

The Finance Director recommends that the City Council, by motion,

Receive and file the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2020. FISCAL IMPACT

There is no fiscal impact of receiving this information.

8A - 1 March 2, 2021 DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND

Background

State law requires that each general purpose local government annually produce a complete set of audited financial statements. The Finance Department has prepared the City’s financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2020. Carr, Riggs & Ingram, LLC, the City’s independent auditors, has audited the City’s financial statements and has issued a letter opining that the City’s financial statements fairly represent the City’s financial position as of September 30, 2020.

Summary of Financial Results

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, the City saw an overall increase in net position of $8,943,370. Summary results for fiscal year ending September 30, 2020 for various funds follows.

Water and Sewer Enterprise

The City’s water and sewer enterprise fund experienced an increase in net position of $4,418,969, while having a decrease in the total of cash and cash equivalents and investments of $704,955. Operating activities provided a positive net cash flow of $5,384,908. Capital and related financing activities used $3,898,184. The enterprise fund unrestricted net position stood at $19,450,194 and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents stood at $1,276,709 as of September 30, 2020.

General Fund

Total fund balance in the general fund increased $1,628,406 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2020, most notably due to a decrease in capital projects expenditures.

The City has built a substantial unassigned fund balance in the general fund over the past several years primarily to self-fund large capital projects. At September 30, 2020, the unassigned general fund balance was $5,435,930, which represented 42.01% of total fiscal year 2019-2020 general fund expenditures of $12,939,094. This reserve provides the City with the ability to fund one-time general funded capital improvements without the issuance of debt, valuable flexibility in the event of an emergency, and preparedness to operate with a minimum of cutbacks during the next inevitable recession. A summary of general fund income statement comparisons for the last three fiscal years is shown on the following page.

8A - 2 March 2, 2021 Summary General Fund Income Statement Comparisons

Fiscal Year Ended 9/30/2020 9/30/2019 9/30/2018

Net other financing sources (uses) (336,219) (289,929) (77,355)

Net change in fund balance $1,628,406 $1,264,050 $(2,580,200)

Community Redevelopment Agency

During fiscal year 2019-2020, the West Melbourne-Brevard County Joint Community Redevelopment Agency received $426,386 in tax increment revenues. The year-end fund balance is $452,672.

8A - 3 March 2, 2021 Recreation Special Revenue Fund

Funded by residential developers who have elected to pay a fee in lieu of constructing park improvements, the recreation fund had a year-end committed fund balance of $722,523. During fiscal year 2019-2020, the Recreation Special Revenue Fund had revenue of $22,516 and expended $6,000 on architectural services for the renovation of the Clements Woos Park restroom.

Stormwater Utility Fund

The Stormwater Utility Special Revenue Fund, which is funded by stormwater utility fees, recorded an increase in fund balance in the amount of $376,859, bringing the year-end assigned fund balance to $(150,612). This negative fund balance will be eliminated with future stormwater utility fees and a limitation on capital projects.

Capital Projects Fund

The Capital Projects Fund had revenues of $4,004,913 including $3,991,000 in transportation impact fees and investment earnings of $13,913, resulting in a net increase in fund balance. The fund balance in the Capital Projects Fund at September 30, 2020 was $4,572,680.

Vehicle Replacement Fund

The Vehicle Replacement Fund is funded through transfers from other funds for the future purchase of vehicles. Transfers into this fund during the fiscal year were $493,400.

Police Pension Trust Fund

One of the most significant long-term obligations of the City is to fund the non-employee, non-State share of the defined benefit pension plan benefitting the City’s sworn police officers. The CAFR reflects that the City once again contributed more than the actuarially determined minimum. Assets of the fund increased from a market value of $15,705,656 at September 30, 2019, to a market value of $17,507,834 at September 30, 2020. Total pension liability increased from $16,325,252 at September 30, 2019, to $17,723,301 at September 30, 2020. The net pension liability at September 30, 2020, was $215,467. The fiduciary net position as a percentage of total pension liability stood at 98.78% at fiscal year-end. Management’s goal continues to be to more than adequately fund the Police Pension Plan so as to assure our sworn officers of the long-term viability of their pension plan and to reduce future year City pension payment obligations.

8A - 4 March 2, 2021 Recommendation

After the Finance Director provides a brief overview of the City’s financial results, Mayor Rose should call on Yvonne Clayborne, CPA of Carr, Riggs & Ingram for a brief overview of the audit.

The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of West Melbourne, Florida (the “City”), for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 is hereby submitted pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 218.39 and Chapter 10.550 of the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida.

Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements.

Carr, Riggs & Ingram, LLC, Certified Public Accountants, have issued an unmodified (“clean”) opinion on the City of West Melbourne’s financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2020. The independent auditors’ report is located at the front of the financial section of this report.

Management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditors’ report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.

Profile of the government

The City of West Melbourne was founded in 1959 and incorporated on July 2, 1970, as a political subdivision of the State of Florida. It is located in east central Florida within Brevard County. It currently occupies 10.3 square miles and has an estimated population of 25,385. The City is empowered to levy a property tax on real property located within its boundaries, which the City has levied continuously since fiscal year 2006. It also is empowered by state statute to extend its corporate limits by annexation, which it has done from time to time.

The City of West Melbourne has operated under the council-manager form of government since 1970. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in the City Council consisting of the mayor and six other members, all elected on a non-partisan basis. Council members, since 2014, serve staggered four year terms, and are elected to represent the City at large. The Council appoints the City Attorney and City Manager. The City Manager appoints the heads of various City departments. The City of West Melbourne provides a full range of services, including police protection services, street maintenance and construction, building inspections, parks and recreation amenities, and

- 5 - 8A - 12 stormwater planning and construction. The City also operates a water distribution and sewer collection and treatment system, both systems of which are a single legal enterprise and reported as a proprietary fund.

The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City’s financial planning and control. Budgetary control is maintained to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The Council is required to hold two public hearings and adopt a final budget by no later than September 30th of each year.

Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in this report for each governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. This comparison is presented as part of the Required Supplementary Information.

Local Economy

The City of West Melbourne is located in east central Florida, approximately forty five miles south of the and encompassing an area of 10.3 square miles. The area is a major hub for technology driven industry such as RELM Wireless, Lockheed Martin, Confluent RF Systems, Mack Technologies, Terry Laboratories and USSI. Corporate headquarters, manufacturers, and technology oriented companies are located within the City of West Melbourne limits. The City’s diverse business community includes traditional businesses, which encompass retail and wholesale trade, transportation, the utilities sector, the professional and business services sector, real estate, finance, and the construction sector, both light manufacturing and military contractors. The City remains attractive to such a vibrant mix of businesses because it maintains one of the lowest tax rates in Brevard County, which has given the City an edge as a better place to do business. The City continues to pursue technology oriented manufacturing, warehousing/distribution, and professional service companies seeking a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

The City has established an economic enhancement district (WAVE District) to allow access to state and federal job creation incentives, a tax abatement program to reduce operating expenses for manufacturers selecting West Melbourne, and has initiated a redevelopment and capital improvement program to focus public infrastructure improvements on its commercial corridors and business parks.

In 1970, West Melbourne’s population was approximately 3,050. Since 2000, the city has experienced the highest population growth percentage of any municipality in Brevard County. The most recent State population estimate for the City is 25,385. The population in the City is relatively young and well-educated with over 45% of its population under the age of 45. With a comparatively high median household income, combined with a relatively young and well-educated population, the City has ideal market conditions for the continued development of high-technology, knowledge-based businesses, as well as traditional businesses and service providers.

As a consequence of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the unemployment rate for the State of Florida and Brevard County increased in 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the unemployment rate in the United States was 7.8%, an increase from 3.6% a year earlier. For Brevard County, the unemployment rate was 5.2%, up from 2.8% a year earlier as reported by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. It is expected that the unemployment rate for Brevard County will drop in 2021 as COVID-19 vaccinations become more widespread and the release of some pent up consumer demands increase consumer spending.

- 6 - 8A - 13 Long-term financial planning and major initiatives

The City’s strategic plans for its long-term financial planning and budgeting are crafted with a strong foundational financial position that has been balanced with deliberate thought to our resources, while reducing already healthy levels of debt. The City Council and the City Manager understand the need for expansion to meet the City’s increasing population, and the resultant demands that such expansion will place on City resources. The City has determined that it will maintain a minimum fund balance reserve of 20% of the annual general fund expenditures, a rate that management considers to be a prudent reserve level for meeting unanticipated expenditure requirements, a major revenue shortfall, or an emergency.

The City is also cognizant of the other cities’ financial challenges. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unrestricted fund balance (which is the total of the committed, assigned, and unassigned components of the fund balance) in the general fund, was 42% of total general fund expenditures. This is a strong position which reduces the need to borrow to finance future construction and expansion projections.

Recent strategic projects for the City of West Melbourne include completion of sanitary sewer extensions along U.S. 192 and Fell Road capable of serving unserved properties that can be annexed into the City in the future, the start of a largely grant funded septic to sewer neighborhood conversion project for the Sylvan Drive neighborhood, the design of a new water main to serve properties west of Interstate 95 in the vicinity of U.S. 192, and completion of an engineering feasibility study for the future development of a new City potable water production plant. In addition, an expansion and renovation of the police station has been completed and various roadway improvement projects are in design. The cost of all these initiatives have been funded without the issuance of new debt.

Since 2000, the City of West Melbourne has been, by percentage, the fastest growing municipality in Brevard County. Since 2010, the City’s population has grown 38.3%. In calendar year 2020, the City issued 261 building permits for new single family homes, and four new apartment developments opened for business. Building permit valuations, representing both residential and commercial activity, totaled $186.2 million in calendar year 2020. Robust near term residential and commercial development is anticipated to continue into 2021. This is expected to be both with continued infill site commercial development, as well as a declining number of remaining opportunities within three large commercial centers in the City that still have a few remaining commercial parcels that can yet be developed. These are the Hammock Landing, Coastal Commerce, and the West Melbourne Interchange Centers.

The City Council has updated the Capital Improvements Element of the Comprehensive Plan in accordance with Florida Statues 163.3177(3)(b), and management has projected the capital improvement program for the next five years as financially feasible. The 2021 to 2025 projection matches future sources of revenues with planned capital expenditures that incorporate long range plans of the City, with major water projects estimated at $45.6 million, sewer projects estimated at $14.5 million, stormwater system improvements at $6.6 million, and transportation system improvements estimated at $5.2 million. Combined capital improvements for all major and secondary projects are estimated at $73.2 million over the five year span.

The millage rate for the City of West Melbourne was 2.6017 for fiscal year 2019 - 2020. This was unchanged from the fiscal year 2018 – 2019 millage rate of 2.6017.

- 7 - 8A - 14 The City was reviewed by Standard and Poors (S&P) on February 23, 2018. S&P upgraded the 2010D Florida Municipal Loan Council revenue bonds from AA- to AA. These bonds were fully defeased on October 1, 2020.

Relevant Financial Policies

The City of West Melbourne has a policy that requires the adoption of a balanced annual operating budget (i.e., estimated revenues equal to or in excess of appropriations). Due to COVID-19 economic impacts, actual General Fund revenues fell short of the final budget by approximately $126,000. During fiscal year 2020, General Fund appropriations increased by $733,850, while actual expenditures were well below the final budgeted. Overall, operational activity resulted in an excess of revenues over expenditures by $1.6 million.

Awards and Acknowledgements

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of West Melbourne for its comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the government published an easily readable and efficiently organized CAFR. This report must satisfy both GAAP and applicable legal requirements.

A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current CAFR continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.

The preparation of this report would not have been possible without the efficient and dedicated service of the Finance department. We wish to also express our appreciation to members of other City departments for their assistance in providing the data necessary to prepare this report. Credit must also be given to the Mayor and the City Council for their consistent support for management as it seeks to prudently manage the City of West Melbourne’s finances.

Respectfully submitted,

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of West Melbourne, Florida

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business- type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of West Melbourne, Florida, as of and for the year ended September 30, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

- 13 - 8A - 20 Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of West Melbourne, Florida, as of September 30, 2020, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, pension and other post-employment benefits supplementary information and budgetary comparison information for the general fund and major special revenue funds as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, budgetary schedules of nonmajor special revenue and capital projects funds, statistical section, and secondary market disclosures are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the budgetary schedules of nonmajor governmental funds are the responsibility of management and were derived from, and relate directly to, the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the budgetary

- 14 - 8A - 21 schedules of nonmajor governmental funds are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

The introductory section, statistical section, and secondary market disclosures have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 24, 2021 on our consideration of the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

- 16 - 8A - 23 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

As management of the City of West Melbourne (“the City”), we offer readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 5-8 of this report.

Financial Highlights

• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $111,037,621 (net position). Of this amount, $23,686,176 represents unrestricted net position, which may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.

• The City’s total net position increased by $8,943,370 from fiscal year 2020 activities. The increase is largely due to increases in capital grants and contributions and property taxes.

• At the close of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $20,741,262 an increase of $6,922,894 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 25% of this amount ($5,285,318) is available for spending at the government’s discretion (unassigned fund balance).

• At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance (the total of the committed, assigned, and unassigned components of fund balance) for the general fund was $5,435,930, or approximately 42% of total general fund expenditures.

• The City’s total outstanding long-term debt, not including compensated absences, pension and other post-employment benefits, decreased by $1,717,791 during the current fiscal year.

Overview of the Financial Statements

This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements, which are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) the notes to the financial statements. This report also includes supplementary information intended to furnish additional detail to support the basic financial statements themselves.

Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.

The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the City’s assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.

The statement of activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event - 17 - 8A - 24 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, recreation, community development and economic environment. The business- type activities of the City include a Water and Sewer System. The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 28-31 of this report.

Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.

Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near- term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Consequently, the governmental fund financial statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps the reader determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City’s programs.

Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The City maintains six individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the general fund, the community redevelopment agency fund and capital projects fund, which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other three governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.

The City of West Melbourne adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund, community redevelopment agency fund and major special revenue funds. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the general fund and the community redevelopment agency fund to demonstrate compliance with their budgets.

- 18 - 8A - 25 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 32-35 of this report.

Proprietary funds. The City maintains one type of proprietary fund—an enterprise fund. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government- wide financial statements. The City uses an enterprise fund to account for its Water and Sewer System.

Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the Water and Sewer System, which is considered to be a major fund. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 36-41 of this report.

Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reported in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.

The City maintains one type of fiduciary fund. The Pension trust fund is used to report resources held in trust for retirees and beneficiaries covered by the Police Officers’ Retirement Plan.

The fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 42-43 of this report.

Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 45-90 of this report.

Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents required supplementary information concerning the City’s budgetary compliance and pension and other post-employment benefits obligations. The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund, community redevelopment agency fund, special revenue funds (recreation and storm water), and capital projects funds (capital projects and vehicle replacement). Budgetary comparison statements have been provided for each of these funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget. The required supplementary information can be found on pages 92- 109 of this report.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 112-117 of this report.

The Statistical Section includes tables and schedules to provide a more detailed picture of the financial condition of the City than those presented in the financial statements. These include the schedule of bonded debt and interest to maturity and assorted multi-year financial and statistical information and can be found on pages 123-144 of this report.

Government-wide Overall Financial Analysis

As noted earlier, net position over time, may serve as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City of West Melbourne, Florida, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $111,037,621 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

By far the largest portion of the City’s net position (64.3%) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, improvements other than buildings, machinery and equipment, and construction in progress), less any related outstanding debt that was used to acquire those assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide a variety of services to its citizens. Accordingly, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

An additional portion of the City’s net position (14.3%) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of $23,686,176 is unrestricted and may be used to meet the government's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.

At September 30, 2020, the City is able to report positive balances in all reported categories of net position, both for the government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business- type activities. The same situation held true for the prior fiscal year.

Governmental Activities. During the current fiscal year, net position for governmental activities increased by $4,524,401 from the prior fiscal year. General revenues increased by approximately 4.5% due to increases in property taxes, payment in lieu of taxes, and miscellaneous revenues. Program revenues increased by approximately 26%, primarily from an agreement between Brevard County and the City, for Transportation Impact Fees of $3,991,000, provided for future construction of City roadway improvements.

Governmental expenses increased $249,728 (1.6%) compared to the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019. The primary reason for this increase was an increase in wages. The first chart that follows compares each program’s expenses with the revenues generated by the program. The next chart displays the City’s revenues by source. Public safety represents one of the City’s major services and the majority of resources used to fund the service are not generated by the program. Revenues from taxes and other general resources provide the remaining funding necessary for public safety.

Revenues Expenses

2020 Revenues by Source – Governmental Activities

Business-type Activities. Business-type activities increased the City’s net position by $4,418,969. Operating revenues for the Water and Sewer System decreased by approximately $1.3 million and this is attributed primarily to a decrease in developer contributions to the City over the substantial prior year contributions. Operating expenses of the Water and Sewer System increased by about $1.07 million due in part to an increase in purchased water costs, and other contractual services. Capital grants decrease by $2.57 million mainly due to a decrease in developer connection fees for multi-family residential developments. - 22 - 8A - 29 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

Financial Analysis of Governmental Funds

As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance- related legal requirements.

Governmental funds. The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near- term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a City’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $20,741,262, an increase of $6,922,894 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 25% of this total amount ($5,285,318) constitutes unassigned fund balance, which has not been appropriated for a specific purpose and is available for spending at the government's discretion. The remainder of fund balance represents a legally restricted funding source, has been committed to a specific purpose by City action or is not in liquid form available for new spending. The $4,169 of prepaid items represents funds that have been disbursed for future expenditures, such as insurance or maintenance agreements. The restricted funds also include funds of $90,217 that can only be spent on law enforcement purposes. The advance of $683,326 represents the long-term portion of an interest bearing loan to the Stormwater Fund and a non-interest bearing loan to the Community Redevelopment Agency. These will become available to the General Fund for expenditure as the loans are satisfied.

The committed fund balances totaling $2,006,173 in two of the non-major funds are being expended for replacement vehicles and recreation. The $4,572,680 in the Capital Projects Fund and $3,991,364 in the General Fund are restricted for construction and maintenance of roads. The $3,655,343 amount represents funds collected through permits and is restricted to enforcing the State’s building code. The Stormwater Utility had a negative unassigned fund balance of $150,612 at September 30, 2020, due to capital and flood mitigation projects, and maintenance and repairs. The Community Redevelopment Agency had minimal expenditures during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, and closed the year with a positive fund balance of $452,672.

The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $5,435,930, while total fund balance reached $13,860,349. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned and assigned fund balance represents 42% of total General Fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 107% of that same amount.

The fund balance of the City’s General Fund increased by $1,628,406 during the current fiscal year, compared to an increase of $1,264,050 in the prior year. The City saw decreased expenditures in the General Fund. Key factors in these results are as follows:

• Total revenues of the General Fund decreased by $2,061,227, largely as a result of COVID-19 impacts: licenses and permit fees for building permits, plan review fees, and inspections; intergovernmental revenues for the US192 lighting project, main revenues for cigarette and - 23 - 8A - 30 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

motor fuel; charges for services were reduced, specifically construction and drain inspection fees, facility rental and recreation class fees; fines and forfeitures reflected reduced revenues for school resource officers, and interest earnings on investments due to the lower interest rate environment.

• General Fund expenditures decreased $2,471,873 compared to the prior year. While there were increased payroll costs, this was more than offset by large reductions in capital outlay as the Police Building project was concluded, there were fewer police vehicle purchases, and developer contributions for infrastructure declined.

Proprietary funds. The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Unrestricted net position of the Water and Sewer System at the end of the year amounted to $19,450,194. The total increase in net position for this fund was $4,418,969. Other factors concerning the finances of this fund have already been addressed in the discussion of the City’s business-type activities.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights

There were no budget revenue amendments during the year ended September 30, 2020. There were five budget expenditure amendments totaling $733,850 during the year ended September 30, 2020.

Capital Assets and Debt Administration

Capital Assets. The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of September 30, 2020, amounted to $79,526,572 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, roads, highways, and other infrastructure items. The percentage decrease from prior year (fiscal year 2019) in the City’s investment in capital assets was approximately 0.66%, due to depreciation and the disposal of obsolete assets.

Additional information on the City’s outstanding debt can be found in Note 3 F on pages 68-71 of this report. The City’s total debt was reduced by $1,717,791 during the current fiscal year. Key factors in the City’s fiscal year 2020 long term debt decrease include the following:

• The City continued to pay off the bonded debt and loans payable as they fell due, and on January 8, 2020, made an advance principal payment in the amount of $472,840 on the Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2007. • The liability for compensated absences increased by $71,925. • The liability for other post-employment benefits increased by $95,665.

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates

The following economic factors currently affect the City of West Melbourne and were considered in developing the 2020-2021 fiscal year budget.

• As of the United States Census count of April 1, 2010, the City had an estimated population of 18,335 people residing within the City’s then 9.9-square miles. The population estimate issued for 2020 by the State of Florida, Office of Economic and Demographic Research shows the City’s population has increased to 25,385 within the City’s now 10.32-square mile area.

• During fiscal year 2020, the City issued building permits for the construction of 222 new single family homes. The City expects continued local economic conditions to improve in the near term off its COVID-19 induced economic low during fiscal year 2019 - 2020. The City has three large commercial centers, Hammock Landing, the West Melbourne Interchange Center and Coastal Commerce, where interest in new commercial development continues. - 25 - 8A - 32 City of West Melbourne, Florida Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2020

• As of September 2020, the unemployment rate in the United States was 7.8%. For the State of Florida, unemployment was 6.4%, an increase from 3.2% a year earlier. For Brevard County, the unemployment rate was 5.2% as reported by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. It is expected that the unemployment rate for Brevard County will decline somewhat but not significantly change in 2021 because of lingering effects of COVID-19 on certain high risk businesses.

• The City was founded in 1959, primarily to prevent property taxes from being imposed by a neighboring municipality. The City continues to pride itself on its low tax rate. The millage rate for the City of West Melbourne was 2.6017 for fiscal year 2019 - 2020. This was unchanged from the fiscal year 2018 – 2019 millage rate of 2.6017.

All of these factors were considered in preparing the City’s budget for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.

For the year ended September 30, 2020

Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds $ 6,922,894

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because:

Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which depreciation exceeded capital outlay in the current period. Capital outlay $ 1,134,315 Depreciation (3,043,079) (1,908,764)

In the statement of activities, the gain (loss) on the disposal of capital assets is reported, whereas in the governmental funds, disposals are not reported. Thus, the change in net position differs from the change in fund balance by the net book value of the disposed capital assets. (10,954)

Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in governmental funds, expenditures are not recognized for transactions that are not normally paid with expendable available financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, which is presented on the accrual basis, pension and OPEB expenses are reported regardless of when the financial resources are available. Net pension liability - FRS/HIS $ (833,186) Net pension liability - police officers' 404,129 Total OPEB liability (161,520) (590,577)

Compensated absences reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. (52,525)

- 44 - 8A - 51 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The City of West Melbourne, Florida (the “City”) was originally chartered as a Town on September 11, 1959. On July 2, 1970, the City was incorporated as a political subdivision of the State of Florida with a six-member Council, including a Mayor and Deputy-Mayor. In November 1989, a seventh Council member was added and the Mayor became a voting member. The Council appoints the City Manager, who in turn functions as the administrator for the everyday operations of the City. The Council also appoints the Chief of Police and City Attorney. The City provides a full range of municipal services as directed by the City Charter including general government, public safety, public improvements, planning and zoning, water and sewer service, refuse collection, a recycling program and related general and administrative services to its residents.

A. Reporting Entity

The City is a municipal corporation governed by an elected power and seven-member governing council (the “Council”). The accompanying financial statements present the City and its component units, entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units are, in substance, part of the primary government’s operations even though they are legally separate entities. Thus, blended component units are appropriately presented as funds of the primary government. The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to governmental units. The more significant accounting polices used by the City are described below.

In evaluating the City as a reporting entity, management has considered all potential component units in accordance with Section 2100: Defining the Financial Reporting Entity of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Codification.

Blended Component Unit

The West Melbourne-Brevard County Joint Community Redevelopment Agency (the “CRA” or “Community Redevelopment”) was organized under Section 163 of the Florida Statutes pursuant to City Ordinance No. 2012-19 and formally came into existence during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The Joint Community Redevelopment Agency uses property tax incremental revenues derived from taxable real property within the geographic boundaries of the community redevelopment area to finance development within that area. Although legally separate, the CRA is reported as if it were part of the City, as a special revenue fund, because it is governed by a board comprised primarily of the City’s elected Council members. Additionally, the services provided by the CRA create a primarily financial benefit relationship with the City. The separate financial statements of the CRA can be obtained from the City of West Melbourne, Attn: Finance Director, 2240 Minton Road, West Melbourne, Florida 32904.

- 45 - 8A - 52 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange transactions, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges to external customers for support.

The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services or privileges provided by a given function or segment, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary fund and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation

The accounting and financial reporting treatment is determined by the applicable measurement focus and basis of accounting. Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured such as current financial resources or economic resources. The basis of accounting indicates the timing of transactions or events for recognition in the financial statements.

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

The governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period, except for federal, state, local or private grants or awards, for which the period is 4 months. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. General

- 46 - 8A - 53 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Issuance of long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.

Property taxes, sales taxes, franchise fees, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues in the current fiscal period. Entitlements are recorded as revenues when all eligibility requirements are met, including any time requirements, and the amount is received during the period or within the availability period for this revenue source (within 4 months of year end). Expenditure-driven grants are recognized as revenue when the qualifying expenditures have been incurred and all other eligibility requirements have been met, and the amount is received during the period or within the availability period for this revenue source (within 4 months of year end). All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the City.

The proprietary and pension benefit trust funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting.

Government-Wide Financial Statements

While separate government-wide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated. The governmental activities column incorporates data from governmental funds, while business-type activities incorporates data from the City’s enterprise funds.

As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are payments in lieu of taxes where the amounts are reasonably equivalent in value to the interfund services provided and other charges between the City’s water and sewer function and various other functions of the City. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.

Fund Financial Statements

The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including its fiduciary funds. Separate statements for each fund category – governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary – are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. There are no non major enterprise funds.

Fund Financial Statements (Continued)

The City reports the following major governmental funds:

• The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.

• The West Melbourne-Brevard County Joint Community Redevelopment Agency Fund (“Community Redevelopment”) is used to account for tax increment revenues derived from taxable real property within the geographic boundaries of the community redevelopment area to finance development within that area.

• The Capital Projects Fund accounts for the acquisition and construction of the City’s major capital facilities, other than those financed by proprietary funds.

The City reports the following major proprietary fund:

• The Water and Sewer Fund accounts for water and sewer operations financed and operated in a manner similar to a private business enterprise. The fund is intended to be predominantly self-supported from user charges.

Additionally, the City reports the following fiduciary fund type:

• The Police Officers’ Pension Trust Fund accounts for the activities of the City’s police pension and retirement system, which accumulates resources for pension benefit payments to qualified police officers.

The City’s nonmajor governmental funds consist of two special revenue funds (Recreation and Stormwater Utility) and one capital projects fund (Vehicle Replacement).

During the course of operations, the City has activity between funds for various purposes. Any residual balances outstanding at year end are reported as due from/to other funds and advances to/from other funds. While these balances are reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Balances between funds included in governmental activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the governmental activities column.

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In fund financial statements these amounts are reported as gross amounts as transfers in/out. While reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements.

Transfers between the funds included in governmental activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as transfers in the governmental activities column.

Budgetary Information

The City has elected, as permitted by Section 2400: Budgetary Reporting of the GASB Codification, to disclose all budgetary information in the notes to the required supplementary information.

D. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position or Equity

1. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The City’s cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short- term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

2. Investments

Deposits available within various funds, except pension trust funds, were consolidated for investment purposes. Substantially all deposits at September 30, 2020, were invested using the pooled investment concept. Interest earned was allocated monthly to the various funds based on their month-ending cash and investment balances.

Investments for the City are reported at fair value except for the positions in the Florida PRIME, Florida SAFE and the Florida Local Government Investment Trust (FTIP) Day to Day Fund external investment pools. The Florida PRIME, Florida SAFE and FTIP Day to Day Fund external investment pools meet all of the specified criteria in Section I50: Investments of the GASB Codification to qualify to elect to measure their investments at amortized cost. Accordingly, the fair value of the City’s position in the pool is equal to the value of pooled shares.

The City of West Melbourne is empowered by statute to invest in the following instruments and may divest itself of such investments, at prevailing market prices or rates subject to the limitations of Section 218.415 – a) the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund, administered by the Florida State Board of Administration or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969, as provided in s. 163.01, Florida Statutes; b) Securities and Exchange

The Police Officers’ Pension Fund is authorized to invest surplus funds in a) equity investments (common stock, convertible bonds and preferred stock) in a corporation listed on one or more of the recognized international exchanges or electronic network; b) fixed income investments with a minimum rating of investment grade or higher as reported by a nationally recognized rating agency except that up to 5% of fixed income investments may be below investment grade; c) money market funds or short-term investment fund options provided by the Plan’s custodian with a minimum rating of Standard & Poor’s “A1” or Moody’s “P1”; d) real estate investments and e) pooled funds including, but not limited to, mutual funds, commingled funds, exchange-traded funds, limited partnerships and private equity.

Banks and savings and loans in which City funds are deposited must be classified as a qualified public depository as defined in the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act, Chapter 280, Florida Statutes, before any deposits are made with those institutions.

3. Receivables and Payables

Unbilled receivables – An amount for unbilled revenue is recorded in the Water and Sewer funds for services rendered, but not yet billed as of the end of the fiscal year. The receivable is derived from the cycle billings generated subsequent to fiscal year end and prorated for usage in September.

All account and tax receivables are shown net of allowance for uncollectible accounts.

As provided by law, the Brevard County Property Appraiser assesses all properties for ad valorem taxing purposes and the Brevard County Tax Collector collects and distributes all taxes. Ad valorem taxes are levied based on property valuation as of January 1. The fiscal year for which ad valorem taxes are levied begins on October 1. Taxes are due beginning November 1, delinquent on April 1, and liened on May 30. Property tax revenues are recognized in the fiscal year for which they are budgeted and also become due and payable. Virtually all unpaid taxes are collected via tax sale certificates sold on or prior to June 1; therefore, no material taxes are receivable at fiscal year end.

4. Interfund Activities and Transactions

During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided or services rendered. These receivables and payables are classified as “due from other funds” or “due to other funds” within the fund financial statements. Long-term borrowings between funds are classified as “advances to other funds” or “advances from other funds” in the fund financial statements. These amounts are eliminated in the governmental and business-type activities columns of the statement of net position, except for any residual balance outstanding between the governmental and business-type activities at the end of the fiscal year, which are reported in the government-wide financial statements as internal balances.

Interfund transactions are reflected as services provided, reimbursements, or transfers. Services provided, deemed to be at or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses. Reimbursements are when a fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefitting fund, and reduces its related costs as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers between governmental or business-type funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide presentation.

5. Inventories and Prepaid Items

All inventories are valued at cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories of governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. The governmental funds did not have any inventories on hand at year end. Inventory in the proprietary fund consists of materials and supplies used in the production of goods and services.

Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.

6. Restricted Assets

Certain assets of the City are classified as restricted assets on the statement of net position because their use is limited by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation; or by restrictions imposed externally by creditors, grantors, contributors or laws or regulations of other governments. Special restricted asset accounts have been established to account for the sources and uses of these limited use assets, as follows:

Customer and Developer Deposit Accounts - Deposited in non-interest bearing accounts and refunded upon termination of service with the City and satisfaction of all obligations due.

Bond and Capital Lease Debt Service Accounts – Includes certain proceeds from issuance of revenue bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for the repayment of bonds or capital lease obligations.

D. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position or Equity (Continued)

Law Enforcement Fines and Confiscated Property Account - Fines and property generated and applied toward further education and enhancement of the police department.

7. Capital Assets

Capital assets, which include property, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $2,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar items and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are reported at acquisition value rather than fair value.

The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. Major capital outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.

Land and construction in progress are not depreciated. The other property, plant, equipment and infrastructure are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Capital asset classes Lives

Buildings 10 to 50 years Improvements other than buildings 2 to 50 years Machinery and equipment 5 to 10 years Infrastructure 10 to 40 years

8. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources

In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then.

The City has three (3) items that qualify for reporting as deferred outflows of resources: the deferred amount on refunding, the deferred outflows related to pensions, and the deferred outflows related to OPEB. All three are reported in the government-wide statement of net position and only two are reported in the proprietary fund statement of net position. The deferred amount on refunding results from debt financing, whereby the reacquisition prices of the funding debt instruments exceed their net carrying amount. The deferred amount on refunding, in the amount of $7,052 at September 30,

8. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources (Continued)

2020 is being amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt. The deferred outflows related to pensions are an aggregate of items related to pensions as calculated in accordance with GASB Codification Section P20: Pension Activities – Reporting for Benefits Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria. The deferred outflows related to pensions will be recognized as either pension expense or a reduction in the net pension liability in future reporting years. The deferred outflows related to other postemployment benefits (OPEB) are an aggregate of items related to OPEB as calculated in accordance with GASB Codification Section P52: Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions – Reporting Benefits Not Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria. The deferred outflows related to OPEB will be recognized as either OPEB expense or a reduction in the net OPEB liability in future reporting years.

In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has one (1) item that qualifies for reporting as deferred inflows of resources in both the government wide and proprietary fund statements of net position. The deferred inflows related to pensions are an aggregate of items related to pensions as calculated in accordance with GASB Codification Section P20: Pension Activities – Reporting for Benefits Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria. The deferred inflows related to pensions will be recognized as a reduction to pension expense in future reporting years.

Deferred revenue-business tax receipts are amounts deferred in both the government-wide statement of net position and the governmental fund balance sheet and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available in accordance with GASB Codification N50: Nonexchange Transactions. At September 30, 2020, the City recognized deferred revenue in the amount of $117,420.

9. Compensated Absences

The City’s policy permits employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation benefits, which are eligible upon separation from government service. The liability for such leave is reported as incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for those amounts is recorded in the governmental funds only if the liability has matured as a result of employee resignations or retirements. The liability for compensated absences includes salary-related benefits, where applicable. Accumulated sick leave lapses when employees leave the employ of the City and, accordingly upon separation of service, no monetary obligation exists.

10. Long-Term Obligations

In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds and is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium and discount. In accordance with GASB Codification Section I30: Interest Costs – Imputation, bond issuance costs are expensed in the period incurred except for prepaid insurance costs.

In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing resources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses.

11. Pensions

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s Police Officers’ pension trust fund and the Florida Retirement System Pension Plan and Health Insurance Subsidy Program and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

12. Other Postemployment Benefits

The City participates in a single employer, defined benefit, other post-employment plan. The City does not have a trust for the plan, and there is no actuarial determined contribution. The OPEB liability is determined in accordance with GASBC Section P52: Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions – Reporting for Benefits Not Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria.

The deferred outflows related to other postemployment benefits (OPEB) are an aggregate of items related to OPEB as calculated in accordance with GASBC Section P52: Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions – Reporting for Benefits Not Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria.

13. Categories and Classification of Fund Equity

Net position flow assumption – Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted – net position and unrestricted – net position in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the City’s policy to consider restricted – net position to have been depleted before unrestricted – net position is applied.

Fund balance flow assumptions - Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and unrestricted resources (the total of committed, assigned and unassigned fund balance). In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balance in the governmental fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the City’s policy to consider restricted fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components of unrestricted fund balance unless there are legal documents/contracts prohibiting this, such as grant agreements. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.

Fund balance polices – Fund balance of governmental funds is reported in various categories based on the nature of any limitations requiring the use of resources for specific purposes. The City itself can establish limitations on the use of resources through either a commitment (committed fund balance) or an assignment (assigned fund balance).

The provisions of GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, specifies the following classifications:

Nonspendable Fund Balance – Nonspendable fund balances are amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. "Not in spendable form" includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash (inventories, prepaid expenditures) and items such as the long-term amount of interfund advances, property acquired for resale, as well as unrealized gains.

Restricted Fund Balance – Restricted fund balances are restricted when constraints placed on the use of resources are either (a) externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (b) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

Committed Fund Balance – The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the City’s highest level of

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

D. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position or Equity (Continued)

13. Categories and Classification of Fund Equity (Continued)

decision-making authority. The governing council is the highest level of decision-making authority for the City that can, by adoption of an ordinance prior to the end of the fiscal year, commit fund balance. Once adopted, the limitation imposed by the ordinance remains in place until a similar action is taken (the adoption of another ordinance) to remove or revise the limitation.

Assigned Fund Balance – Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the City for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as committed. The authority to assign fund balance lies with the City Council and may occur through the budget process or formal action. Unlike commitments, assignments generally only exist temporarily. In other words, an additional action does not normally have to be taken for the removal of an assignment. Conversely, as discussed above, an additional action is essential to either remove or revise a commitment.

Unassigned Fund Balance – Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund. This classification represents fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds and that has not been restricted, committed or assigned to specific purposes within the General Fund. Unassigned fund balance may also include negative balances for any governmental fund if expenditures exceed amounts restricted, committed or assigned for those specific purposes. According to the City's Fund Balance policy, the General Fund shall maintain an unassigned, unappropriated fund balance equivalent to a minimum of twenty (20%) of the current fiscal year expenditures less capital outlay and transfers out. At September 30, 2020, this minimum balance is $2,374,238.

14. Revenues and Expenditures/Expenses

Program revenues – Amounts reported as program revenues include, 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions (including special assessments) that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. All taxes, including those dedicated for specific purposes, and other internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than program revenues.

Property taxes - The City is permitted by State law to levy taxes up to 10 mills on assessed valuation. However, Chapter 74-430, Laws of Florida, a special act applicable only to governmental units in Brevard County, limits the annual increase to 10% of the prior year’s millage. During a Special Session in June 2007, the Florida Legislature adopted HB1B, which limits municipal property tax rates effective with the 2007-2008 fiscal year. This legislation establishes reductions in the millage rate based on a calculated growth in per capita taxes between the 2002 and 2007 fiscal years. The Legislature did authorize local governments to use the rolled back millage rate if approved by a super majority vote of the governing body. The West Melbourne City Council levy for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 was 2.6017 mills, which is equal to the rolled back rate. - 56 - 8A - 63 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

14. Revenues and Expenditures/Expenses

Proprietary funds operating and nonoperating revenues and expenses – Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the Water and Sewer Fund are charges to customers for sales and services and the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for the Water and Sewer Fund include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

15. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make various estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are related to the pension liability and the OPEB liability.

16. Subsequent events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, February 24, 2021. See Note 4.G. for relevant disclosures. No subsequent events occurring after this date have been evaluated for inclusion in these financial statements.

17. Recently issued and implemented accounting pronouncements

The City has implemented GASB Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities. The implementation of this statement did not result in any change in the City’s financial statements. GASB Statement No. 84 improves the guidance regarding the identification of fiduciary activities for accounting and financial reporting purposes and how those activities should be reported.

The Governmental Accounting Standards Board has issued statements that will become effective in future years. These statements are as follows:

In June 2017, the GASB issued Statement No. 87, Leases. The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by improving accounting and financial reporting for leases by governments. This Statement increases the usefulness of governments’ financial statements by requiring recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously

- 57 - 8A - 64 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

17. Recently issued and implemented accounting pronouncements (Continued) were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on payment provisions of the contract. It establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financings of the right to use an underlying asset. Under this Statement, a lessee is required to recognize a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources, thereby enhancing the relevance and consistency of information about governments’ leasing activities. The requirements of this Statement are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2021.

In June 2018, the GASB issued Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period. The objectives of this Statement are (1) to enhance the relevance and comparability of information about capital assets and the cost of borrowing for a reporting period and (2) to simplify accounting for interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period. This Statement requires that interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period be recognized as an expense in the period in which the cost is incurred for financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. The requirements of this Statement are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020.

In May 2020, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements. This statement provides guidance on the accounting and financial reporting for subscription-based information technology arrangements (SBITAs) for government end users (governments). This Statement (1) defines a SBITA; (2) establishes that a SBITA results in a right-to-use subscription asset – an intangible asset – and a corresponding subscription liability; (3) provides the capitalization criteria for outlays other than subscription payments, including implementation costs of a SBITA; and (4) requires note disclosures regarding a SBITA. To the extent relevant, the standards for SBITAs are based on the standards established in Statement No. 87, Leases, as amended. The requirements of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2022, and all reporting periods thereafter. Assets and liabilities resulting from SBITAs should be recognized and measured using the facts and circumstances that existed at the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is implemented. Governments are permitted, but are not required, to include in the measurement of the subscription asset capitalizable outlays associated with the initial implementation stage and the operation and additional implementation stage incurred prior to the implementation of this Statement.

The City is currently evaluating the effects that these statements will have on its financial statements.

A. Deficit Fund Equity

At September 30, 2020, the Stormwater Utility Fund had a deficit unassigned fund balance of $150,612. This deficit was the result of capital and flood mitigation projects completed in advance of receipt of designated funding. The Stormwater Utility Fund has received loans from the General Fund, which will be repaid from future stormwater fees collections. This deficit will be eliminated as resources (future stormwater fees) are obtained.

A. Deposits and Investments

At September 30, 2020, the City’s carrying amount of cash deposits was $9,414,274, not including petty cash and change accounts totaling $4,100, and the bank balance was $9,732,402. As of September 30, 2020, $500,000 of the City’s bank balances was covered by federal depository insurance (FDIC). Monies invested in amounts greater than the insurance coverage are secured by the qualified public depositories pledging securities with the State Treasurer in such amounts required by the Florida Security for Public Depositories Act. In the event of a default or insolvency of a qualified public depositor, the State Treasurer will implement procedures for payment of losses according to the validated claims of the City pursuant to Section 280.08, Florida Statutes.

The investment program is established in accordance with the City’s investment policy, pertinent bond resolutions and Section 218.45, Florida Statutes, which allows the City to invest in the Florida State Board of Administration intergovernmental investment pool or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969, direct obligations of the United States Government, obligations of the different agencies of the Federal Government, registered money market funds and accounts of state qualified public depositories.

The investing of public funds with the Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (“Florida PRIME”) is governed by Section 218.407, Florida Statutes. The SBA is under regulatory oversight of the State of Florida. The investment pool consists largely of corporate notes and commercial paper. On September 30, 2020, the City had $11,163,239 invested in the SBA. The fair value of the City’s position in the pool is equal to the value of the pooled shares.

The Florida Local Government Investment Trust (Florida SAFE) is a common law trust organized under the laws of the State of Florida as an intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act, as provided in Section 163.01 of the Florida Statutes. The investment pool consists of obligations guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States, U.S. government agency obligations, commercial paper, bank obligations and other obligations permitted by applicable Florida Statutes. At September 30, 2020, the City’s share of Florida SAFE was $16,036,987. The fair value of the City’s position in the pool is equal to the value of the pooled shares.

The Florida Surplus Asset Fund Trust (FTIP) Day to Day Fund is a common law trust organized under the laws of the State of Florida as an intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the - 59 - 8A - 66 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 3: DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued)

A. Deposits and Investments (Continued)

Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act, as provided in Section 163.01 of the Florida Statutes. The investment pool offers two open-ended managed funds available only to public entities in Florida. The investment pools consist of short-term to intermediate-term securities permitted by applicable Florida Statutes. At September 30, 2020, the City’s share of the FTIP Day to Day Fund was $5,255,374. The fair value of the City’s position in the FTIP Day to Day Fund investment pool is equal to the value of the pooled shares.

Under GASB Codification I50: Investments, if a participant has an investment in a qualifying external investment pool that measures for financial reporting purposes all of its investments at amortized cost, it should disclose the presence of any limitations or restrictions on withdrawals (such as redemption notice periods, maximum transaction amounts, and the qualifying external investment pool’s authority to impose liquidity fees or redemption gates) in notes to the financial statements. As of September 30, 2020, there were no redemption fees or maximum transaction amounts, or any other requirements that serve to limit the City’s access to 100 percent of their account value in the Florida PRIME, Florida SAFE or FTIP external investment pools.

Cash with escrow and paying agents of $2,667,266 accounted for in the Water and Sewer Fund represents reserves and balances to service outstanding bonds.

Deposits available within various funds, except pension trust funds, were consolidated for investment purposes. Interest earned was allocated monthly to the various funds based on their month-end cash and investment balances. The pension trust funds are authorized to invest in corporate bonds and stocks, money markets funds, mortgages and notes.

Custodial credit risk – Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government may not be able to recover deposits. Monies placed on deposit with financial institutions in the form of demand deposits, time deposits or certificate of deposits are defined as public deposits. The financial institutions in which the City places its deposits are certified as “qualified public depositories,” as required under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act. For an investment, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party.

As of September 30, 2020, the City’s pension investments are held in street name in the form of stock, debt securities and U.S. government bonds through financial brokerage firms segregated out from the assets and investments held by other clients of the investment firm and their own assets.

Interest rate risk – Interest rate risk is the possibility that interest rates will rise and reduce the fair value of an investment. The City’s investment policy limits interest rate risk by requiring that an attempt be made to match investment maturities with known cash needs and anticipated cash flow requirements. In addition, investments of current operating funds are required to have maturities of no longer than twelve months. The City’s Police Officers’ Pension Plan does not address interest rate risk. - 60 - 8A - 67 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 3: DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued)

A. Deposits and Investments (Continued)

The dollar weighted average days to maturity (WAM) of Florida PRIME at September 30, 2020 is 48 days.

Credit risk – Section I50: Investments of the GASB Codification requires that governments provide information about credit risk associated with their investments by disclosing the credit rating of investments in debt securities as described by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The City’s investment policy and the investment policy for the City’s Police Officers’ Pension Plan, limit investments to securities with specific ranking criteria.

Foreign currency risk – The City’s primary government’s investments are not exposed to foreign currency risk and the City’s investment policy does not address foreign currency risk. The City’s pension trust fund is exposed to foreign currency risk and the fund’s investment policy limits investments to a maximum of 25% of the plan’s market value. The pension trust fund currently holds approximately 14.9% of the plan’s market value in international mutual fund stocks.

Concentration risk – Section I50: Investments of the GASB Codification requires disclosures of investments in any one issuer that represents five percent or more of total investments, excluding investments issued or explicitly guaranteed by the U.S government, investments in mutual funds, external investments pools and other pooled investments. The City’s investment policy does not address concentration risk. The Police Officers’ Pension Plan restricts the percentage of assets that may be held in the stock of any one company and the bonds issued by any one issuer.

At September 30, 2020, the City had the following investments:

Fair Value - GASB Codification Section 3100: Fair Value Measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the codification are described as follows:

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the City has the ability to access.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include: • quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; • inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; • inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at September 30, 2020.

Debt and equity securities – Debt and equity securities classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted market prices for those securities. Debt securities classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using a matrix pricing technique based on the price or yield of similar debt securities.

Mutual funds – Mutual funds classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted market prices for those investments. Mutual funds classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, - 63 - 8A - 70 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

A. Deposits and Investments (Continued) while underlying securities have observable Level 1 pricing inputs or observable Level 2 significant other pricing inputs, are not publicly quoted and are based on market-corroborated data.

Fixed income funds – Fixed income funds classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted market prices for those investments. Fixed income funds classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are not publicly quoted and are based on market-corroborated data.

Real estate funds – Real estate funds are valued at net asset value.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the City believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following table summarizes investments measured at fair value based on NAV per share as of September 30, 2020:

Redemption Unfunded Frequency Redemption Fair Value Commitments (if currently eligible) Notice Period FTIP Short Term Bond Fund $ 2,183,289 None Monthly None stated 30 days prior to last Real estate funds 1,628,035 None Quarterly day of the quarter Total investments measured at net asset value $ 3,811,324

FTIP Short Term Bond Fund – The pool is valued using the quoted value of underlying assets or similar assets and multiplied by the City’s percentage of ownership in the pool.

Real estate funds – The real estate funds invest primarily in U.S. commercial and multi-family residential real estate. Distributions from each fund will be received as the underlying investments of the funds are liquidated. The funds were formed as open-ended investments and will have perpetual existence unless terminated by the ownership (partners). Because it is not probable that any individual investment will be sold, the fair value of each individual investment has been determined using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) of the Police Officers Pension’s ownership interest in partners’ capital.

G. Employee Retirement Plans – Defined Contribution Plan

General Employees' Retirement Plan

Plan description. The City of West Melbourne General Employees' Retirement Plan is a defined contribution plan administered by ICMA Retirement Corporation. In a defined contribution plan, benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment earnings. All full time general employees hired prior to July 1, 2008 are eligible to participate after six months of service.

Employer contributions are vested according to the following schedule: 50% after three years of service; 75% after four years; 100% after five years. There are currently two employees participating in this plan.

Funding policy. Contributions under the plan were established by the Plan & Trust adoption agreement with ICMA Retirement Corporation and may be amended at the City's discretion. Required contributions are 2% and 8% of eligible earnings for employees and employer, respectively. Administrative costs are financed through investment earnings. Required and actual contributions for the year ended September 30, 2020 were $4,404 from employees and $17,614 from the employer. Of the employer’s portion, $0 was paid from forfeitures remaining in the plan.

Participant loans. The Plan allows participants to borrow from their fund accounts the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a fixed rate of prime plus 0.5%, as determined on the last day of the month preceding the month the loan is disbursed. Principal and interest are paid ratably through bi-weekly payroll deductions over a period not to exceed five years.

H. Employee Retirement Plans – Defined Benefit Plans

Florida Retirement System

Plan description. The City participates in two defined benefit pension plans that are administered by the State of Florida, Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. The plans provide retirement, disability or death benefits to retirees or their designated beneficiaries. Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, establishes the authority for benefit provisions. Changes to the law can only occur through an act of the Florida Legislature. The State of Florida issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the plans. That report is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ website (www.dms.myflorida.com).

The Florida Retirement System (FRS) Pension Plan is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) available for eligible employees. The FRS was established and is administered in accordance with Chapter 121, Florida Statutes. Retirees receive a lifetime pension benefit with joint and survivor payment options.

FRS membership is compulsory for employees filling regularly established positions in a state agency, county agency, state university, state college, or district school board, unless restricted from FRS membership under Sections 121.053 or 121.122, Florida Statutes, or allowed to participate in a defined contribution plan in lieu of FRS membership. Participation by cities, municipalities, special districts, charter schools and metropolitan planning organizations is optional.

The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established and administered in accordance with Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees and surviving beneficiaries of the state- administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs. To be eligible to receive a HIS benefit, a retiree under a state administered retirement system must provide proof of eligible health insurance coverage, which can include Medicare.

Benefits provided. Benefits under the FRS Pension Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the five highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members - 72 - 8A - 79 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

Note 3: DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued)

H. Employee Retirement Plans – Defined Benefit Plans (Continued)

Florida Retirement System (Continued)

initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the eight highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement plan and/or class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned.

Eligible retirees and beneficiaries receive a monthly HIS payment equal to the number of years of service credited at retirement multiplied by $5. The minimum payment is $30 and the maximum payment is $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes.

Contributions. The contribution requirements of plan members and the employer are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. Employees are required to contribute 3.00% of their salary to the FRS. The employer’s contribution rates as of September 30, 2020, were as follows:

FRS HIS Regular class 8.34% 1.66% Senior management service class 25.63% 1.66% DROP from FRS 15.32% 1.66%

The employer’s contributions for the year ended September 30, 2020, were $292,591 to the FRS and $64,613 to the HIS.

Pension liabilities and pension expense. In its financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2020, the City reported a liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability of the FRS Pension Plan and its proportionate share of the net pension liability of the HIS Program. The net pension liabilities were measured as of June 30, 2020. The City’s proportions of the net pension liabilities were based on its share of contributions to the pension plans relative to the contributions of all participating entities, actuarially determined.

FRS HIS Net pension liability $ 3,816,742 $ 1,369,034

Proportion at: Current measurement date 0.0088% 0.0112% Prior measurement date 0.0085% 0.0107% Increase in proportionate share 0.0003% 0.0005%

Deferred outflows of resources related to employer contributions paid subsequent to the measurement date and prior to the employer’s fiscal year end will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension liability in the reporting period ending September 30, 2020. Other pension-related amounts reported as deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources will be recognized in pension expense as follows:

Actuarial assumptions. The total pension liability for each of the defined benefit plans was measured as of June 30, 2020. The total pension liability for the FRS Pension Plan was determined by an actuarial valuation dated July 1, 2020. For the HIS Program, the total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation dated July 1, 2020 and using standard actuarial valuation procedures to develop the liability at June 30, 2020. - 74 - 8A - 81 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

The individual entry age normal actuarial cost method was used for each plan, along with the following significant actuarial assumptions:

FRS HIS Inflation 2.40% 2.40% Payroll growth, including inflation 3.25% 3.25% Investment rate of return 6.80% N/A Discount rate 6.80% 2.21%

Mortality assumptions for the FRS Pension Plan were based on PUB2010 base tables projected generationally with Scale MP-2018. Mortality assumptions for the HIS Program were based on the Generational RP-2000 with Projection Scale BB.

For both plans, the actuarial assumptions were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2013, through June 30, 2018.

The following changes in key actuarial assumptions occurred in 2020:

FRS: The long-term expected rate of return and the discount rate used to determine the total pension liability decreased from 6.90% to 6.80%.

HIS: The municipal bond index rate and the discount rate used to determine the total pension liability decreased from 3.50% to 2.21 %.

The long-term expected investment rate of return was not based on historical returns, but instead was based on a forward-looking capital market economic model. Each asset class assumption is based on a consistent set of underlying assumptions, and includes an adjustment for the inflation assumption. For the FRS Pension Plan, the table below summarizes the consulting actuary’s assumptions based on the long-term target asset allocation.

Discount rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for the FRS Pension Plan was 6.80%. FRS’ fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the discount rate for calculating the total pension liability is equal to the long-term expected rate of return.

Because the HIS Program is essentially funded on a pay-as-you-go basis, a municipal bond rate of 2.21% was used to determine the total pension liability for the program. The Bond Buyer General Obligation Bond 20-Bond Municipal Bond Index was used as the applicable municipal bond index.

Sensitivity analysis. The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity of the net pension liability to changes in the discount rate. The sensitivity analysis shows the impact to the employer’s proportionate share of the net pension liability if the discount rate was 1.00% higher or 1.00% lower than the current discount rate.

Pension plans’ fiduciary net position. Detailed information about the pension plans’ fiduciary net position is available in the State’s separately issued financial reports.

Payables to the pension plans. As of September 30, 2020, the City had no outstanding payables to the FRS or HIS plans for regular employee and employer contributions that were legally required to be paid to the plans but not remitted prior to the end of the year.

Police Officers' Pension Plan

The City maintains and administers a separate single-employer pension plan for all eligible police officers, which assets are included in the Police Officers' Retirement Trust Fund (the "Police Officers’ Pension Plan" or the “Plan”). The plan does not issue stand-alone financial reports and is not included in any other retirement system’s or the entity’s financial report.

Plan description. The City of West Melbourne Police Officers’ Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is a single-employer defined benefit pension plan. The Plan is administered by a five-member Board of Trustees (two West Melbourne citizens appointed by the City Council, two plan participants selected by the plan membership, and a fifth board member selected by the other four board members and confirmed by the City Council as a ministerial action).

Police Officers' Pension Plan (Continued)

The Plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report. The Plan’s financial statements as of September 30 are included in the City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Pension plan data is provided from the respective actuarial reports as of September 30, 2020.

Basis of accounting. The Plan's financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which the contributions are due. Employer contributions to the Plan are recognized when due and the employer has made a formal commitment to provide the contributions. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Method used to value investments. Investments are reported at fair value. Short-term investments are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. Securities traded on a national or international exchange are valued at the last reported sales price at current exchange rates. Investments that do not have an established market are reported at estimated fair value. Mortgages are valued on the basis of future principal and interest payments, and are discounted at prevailing interest rates for similar instruments.

Description of benefits. Benefits under the Plan are established in accordance with requirements of City Ordinance and Florida Statutes Chapter 185. Benefit provisions may be amended by the City Council but may not be reduced below the minimum specified by statute.

The Plan provides retirement, death and disability benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. Retirement benefits vest with the participants based on years of credited service at 20% per year after six years with full vesting provided after ten years. Employees qualifying for normal retirement are entitled to monthly benefits based on 3% of average final compensation times years of service. Employees hired prior to January 1, 2011 additionally receive $10 per month per year of service. Generally, normal retirement occurs at attained age 55, or with 25 years of service, regardless of age. Early retirement benefits are available at attained age 50 and 10 years of service using reduced benefit formulas.

Service incurred disability benefits are available to employees with no vesting period and provide monthly income (as defined by the plan payable until death or recovery). Non-service incurred disability benefits (available to employees with ten years of plan participation) provide monthly income (as defined by the Plan) payable until death or recovery. In the event of death, the Plan provides for a 10-year certain and life annuity benefit.

Optional forms of benefits are available and may be elected by the employee as provided in the Plan.

Contribution requirements and funding policy. The employer, employee and State contribution requirements are actuarially determined on an annual basis. Most administrative costs of the Plan are financed through investment earnings of the Plan. Plan members hired on or after January 1, 2011 are required to contribute 8.44% of pensionable pay and Plan members hired before January 1, 2011 are required to contribute 8.54% of pensionable pay. The City recognized as revenues and expenditures on-behalf payments relating to contributions for its public safety employees that the State paid to the Plan in the amount of $184,880. These contributions are funded by an excise tax levied on certain casualty and property insurance premiums. If the remittance from the State is less than estimated by the actuary, the City pays the balance required to fund the total actuarial requirement.

The City’s contributions to the Plan for the year ended September 30, 2020 totaled $619,452, which includes the amount contributed by the State. Plan members contributed $230,786 for the same fiscal year.

Plan administration. The Plan is administered by a Board of Trustees comprised of two (2) Council appointees, two (2) members of the Department elected by the Membership and a fifth member elected by the other four (4) members of the Board of Trustees.

Plan membership as of October 1, 2019:

Inactive plan members or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 17 Inactive plan members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 5 Active plan members 44 Total plan members 66

Benefits provided. The Plan provides retirement, termination, disability and death benefits.

Normal retirement. Normal retirement is the earlier of: 1) Age 55 and 10 years of credited service, or 2) 25 years of credited service, regardless of age. Upon retirement, the member receives a monthly benefit equal to 3.0% of Average Final Compensation (AFC) for each year of credited service.

Early retirement. Members are eligible for early retirement upon attaining age 50 and completing 10 years of credited service. Accrued benefits are reduced by 3% for each year from the otherwise normal retirement date.

Vesting. Vesting begins after 6 years of credited service. The members vest at 20% after 6 years of credited service plus 20% per year thereafter up to 100% after 10 years. Each member will receive an unreduced benefit payable at the later of age 55 or when the member would have attained 10 years of service. Reduced benefits are payable at the later of age 50 or when the member would have attained 10 years of service.

Disability. Eligibility for a service incurred disability is covered from date of employment. Eligibility for a non-service incurred liability vests after 10 years of credited service. The benefit for a service incurred disability is the member’s accrued benefit but not less than 42% of AFC and not less than 25% of AFC for a non-service incurred disability.

Pre-Retirement death benefits. Eligibility for pre-retirement death benefits vests after 10 years of credited service. The benefit is the member’s accrued benefit paid as 50% of the actuarially equivalent 50% Joint and Survivor form of benefit.

Cost of living adjustment. For Members hired before January 1, 2011, the base benefit is increased annually by a pro-rated portion of 2.0% each October 1 beginning 5 years after retirement. The pro- ration will be years of service prior to February 19, 2013 over total years of service at retirement. Minimum COLA for those hired before January 1, 2011 will be 1.0%.

Supplemental Benefit. Members hired before January 1, 2011 receive a monthly supplemental benefit equal to $10 for each year of Credited Service. This supplemental benefit is not subject to cost-of-living adjustments, and is not provided to vested terminated members.

Share Plan. Effective September 30, 2017, the individual share account of each active member who has accrued at least one complete year of credited service under the plan and who is not participating in the DROP will receive a one-time allocation equal to $1,200 plus $400 for each additional complete year of service in excess of one year, subject to a maximum allocation of $5,200. This is funded by the existing Excess State Monies Reserve with any remaining amounts applied to reduce the UAAL as of September 30, 2017. Effective September 30, 2017 and each September 30 thereafter, the sum of $600 plus three percent interest shall be allocated to the individual share account of each member hired on or after January 1, 2011 who has at least one year of credited service. The annual allocations will be funded solely by the annual state monies received with any remaining amounts applied to reduce the City’s annual contribution requirement. At September 30, 2020, $176,287 of state funds was allocated to the share plan.

Contributions. Remaining amount required in order to pay current costs and amortize unfunded past service cost, if any, as provided in Chapter 112, Florida Statutes.

Net pension liability of the sponsor. The components of the net pension liability of the sponsor on September 30, 2020 were as follows:

Total pension liability $ 17,723,301 Plan fiduciary net position (17,507,834) Sponsor's net pension liability $ 215,467

Plan fiduciary net position as a percentage of total pension liability 98.78%

Actuarial assumptions. The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of October 1, 2019 updated to September 30, 2020 using the following actuarial assumptions applied to the September 30, 2020 measurement period:

Inflation 2.50% Salary increases Service based Discount rate 6.80% Investment rate of return 6.80%

Mortality assumptions were based on the PubS.H-2010 (Below Median) for employees set forward one year for both females and males with healthy active lives and PubS.H-2010 for healthy retirees, set forward one year, both males and females. For beneficiary lives, the mortality rates were based on PubG.H-2010 (Below Median) for healthy retirees for females and PubG.H-2010 for healthy retirees, set back one year for males. For disabled members, the mortality rates were based on 80% PubG.H-2010 for disabled retirees / 20% PubS.H-2010 for disabled retirees. All rates are projected generationally with Mortality Improvement Scale MP-2018.

Plan changes. For the measurement period ended September 30, 2020, and since the prior valuation, there were no changes in plan provisions.

Actuarial assumption changes. For the measurement date ended September 30, 2020 as mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida, the assumed rates of mortality were changed to the rates used in the Milliman’s July 1, 2019 FRS valuation report for special risk employees, with appropriate adjustments made based on plan demographics. Additionally, the investment return assumption was reduced from 6.95% to 6.80%, net of investment related expenses.

Discount rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.80%.

The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that sponsor contributions will be

made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expenses and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.

These ranges are combined to produce the long term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the pension plan's target asset allocation as of September 30, 2020 are summarized in the following table:

Long Term Expected Real Asset Class: Rate of Return Domestic equity 7.50% International equity 8.50% Broad market fixed income 2.50% Global fixed income 3.50% Global tactical asset allocation funds 3.50% Real estate 4.50%

Sensitivity of the net pension liability (asset) to changes in the discount rate. The following presents the net pension liability of the City, calculated using the discount rate, as well as what the City’s net pension liability (asset) would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage- point lower or 1-percentage-point higher than the current rate:

Current 1% Decrease Discount Rate 1% Increase (5.80%) (6.80%) (7.80%) Sponsor's net pension liability (asset) $ 2,793,828 $ 215,467 $ (1,889,558)

Net pension liability and changes in the net pension liability. The net pension liability for the Plan was measured as of September 30, 2020 and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was also determined as of that date. - 82 - 8A - 89 City of West Melbourne, Florida Notes to Financial Statements

J. Post-Employment Benefits Other than Pensions (OPEB)

The City follows Section P52: Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions – Reporting for Benefits Not Provided through Trusts That Meet Specified Criteria of the GASB Codification for certain post- employment health care benefits provided by the City.

Plan description. The OPEB plan is a single-employer benefit plan administered by the City. Medical insurance benefits are provided to employees and their eligible dependents through an employee group medical insurance plan. In accordance with Section 112.0801 of the Florida Statutes, because the City provides a medical plan to active employees and their eligible dependents, the City is also required to provide retirees with the opportunity to participate in this insurance. Benefit provisions for the insurance are established and may be amended by the City Council. The retirees pay the full group premium amount for health insurance with no explicit subsidy from the City.

Funding policy. Contribution rates for the insurance are established on an annual basis. Eligible retirees and their covered dependents receiving benefits contribute 100% of their premium costs for medical insurance. While the City does not directly contribute toward the costs of retiree premiums via an explicit subsidy, the ability of retirees to obtain health insurance coverage at a group rate which includes active employees constitutes a significant economic benefit to retirees, or an OPEB obligation of the City. The City is currently funding this OPEB obligation on a pay-as-you-go basis, contributing only those amounts necessary to provide for its portion of current year benefit costs and expenses. OPEB liabilities are liquidated by the respective funds that are obligated for the related costs. For governmental activities, OPEB liabilities are generally liquidated by the general fund. For the year ended September 30, 2020, the City estimated it subsidized $14,792 of medical costs for its retirees and their covered dependents.

As of September 30, 2020, no trust has been established for the other postemployment benefits.

Plan membership. At October 1, 2018, OPEB membership consisted of the following:

Number of covered individuals Inactive members currently receiving benefits 7 Inactive members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits - Active members 112 Total 119

Actuarial assumptions and other inputs. The total OPEB liability in the September 30, 2020 actuarial assumptions and other inputs, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:

J. Post-Employment Benefits Other than Pensions (OPEB) (Continued)

Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive Plan (the Plan as understood by the employer and the Plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and Plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.

The actuarial assumptions included an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7.50% initially, reduced by decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.00% after five years. The actuarial methods and assumptions used are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.

The October 1, 2018 actuarial valuation included changes in assumptions for the discount rate (decrease from 3.67% in the prior valuation to 3.58%) and in the health care cost trend rates (decrease from 8.00% in the prior valuation to 7.50%). The methods, assumptions, and participant data used are detailed in the actuarial valuation report dated October 1, 2018. These calculations are based on the Entry Age Normal cost method required by GASBC P52.

At September 30, 2020, the City reported a total OPEB liability of $784,355. The other postemployment benefit information has been provided as of the September 30, 2020 measurement date.

In fiscal year 2019-2020, the City was a member of the Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is a self-insurance program established to provide worker’s compensation, property, and casualty coverage to participating units of local government in Florida pursuant to various provisions of Florida Statutes. The Trust’s underwriting and vote-setting policies are established after consultation with an independent actuary. The Trust is non-assessable and therefore, the City has no liability for future deficits of the Trust, if any. Only workers compensation is subject to audit thus avoiding additional premium charges beyond policy expirations.

There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage during the fiscal year 2020. Also, there have been no settlements that exceeded insurance coverage for each of the past three fiscal years.

B. Concentration – Water Supply

The City purchases all of its residents’ water needs from the City of Melbourne, Florida under an agreement dated May 16, 2013, which is currently scheduled to expire December 31, 2026, with an optional fifteen-year extension. During the year, approximately $3.4 million (605,491,800 gallons) of water was purchased and management believes it will be able to continue purchasing water from the City of Melbourne, Florida, sufficient to meet all of its residents’ water needs, for the foreseeable future.

C. Litigation

Various other suits in the ordinary course of operations are pending against the City. While the ultimate effect of such litigation cannot be ascertained at this time, in the opinion of counsel for the City, the liabilities that may arise from such actions would not result in losses that would exceed the liability insurance limits in effect at the time the claim arose or otherwise materially affect the financial position of the City or results of operations.

D. Commitments and contingencies

On February 15, 2011, the City entered into a contract for the management, operation and maintenance of the wastewater treatment, collection and disposal facility. On July 7, 2020, the City Council approved a five-year extension of the contract. The term of the contract extension ends on April 30, 2026. The base fee for the first year was $1,214,768 and is subject to annual adjustment. For fiscal year 2020, the City paid $1,532,700 under this contract.

Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies, principally federal and state government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.

D. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

The City has active construction projects as of September 30, 2020 for various projects including the construction of the Sylvan Drive septic to sewer project, Parks Maintenance building expansion and the Greenboro forcemain replacement. At year end, the City’s commitments with contractors totaled $1,777,916. The commitments are being financed by general fund revenues and from enterprise awarded grants.

E. Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization made the assessment that the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) can be characterized as a pandemic. As a result, uncertainties have arisen that may have a significant negative impact on the ongoing operating activities and future results of the City. The occurrence and extent of such an impact will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the virus, (ii) government quarantine measures, (iii) voluntary and precautionary restrictions on travel or meetings, (iv) the effects of the financial markets, and (v) the effects on the economy overall, all of which remain uncertain.

F. Asset Retirement Obligations

Asset retirement obligations generally apply to legal obligations associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset that result from the acquisition, construction, or development and the normal operation of a long-lived asset. The City assesses asset retirement obligations on a periodic basis. If a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made, the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred or a change in estimate occurs.

The City operates a wastewater treatment plant which is regulated by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, and requires certain cleanup and remediation activities if use of the wastewater treatment plant is discontinued. The City Plans ongoing refurbishment to the plant as needed and has no plans to discontinue use of the plant. As such, the City is not able to readily estimate the fair value of the liability for discontinuing use of the plant, and has not recorded an asset retirement obligation for this asset.

G. Subsequent Events

On July 21, 2020, City Council approved the payoff of the 2010D Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds on their earliest call date. As a result, the City’s escrow agent paid out a total of $2,472,922 in City funds on October 1, 2020 to defease and redeem the 2010D bond series.

On January 8, 2021, the City made an additional (unscheduled) principal payment on the Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2007, in the amount of $295,400. As a result of the additional principal payment, principal is now due annually in amounts increasing to $765,000 and the final maturity is April 1, 2023.

G. Subsequent Events

On October 19, 2020, the City was awarded $2,266,191 in grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to be used for Melbourne Estates flood and drainage improvements by April 30, 2022.

On October 1, 2020, the City adopted new policies and procedures for fixed assets to adhere to Florida Statute: Rule 691-72, F.A.C. The new policy defines fixed assets as tangible property with a life greater than one year and increases the capitalization threshold to $5,000.

Valuation Date: October 1, 2018 Actuarially determined contribution rates are calculated as of October 1, two years prior to the end of the fiscal year in which contributions are reported.

Methods and assumptions used to determine contribution rates:

Funding method: Entry Age Normal Actuarial Cost Method. Amortization method: Level dollar, closed. Remaining amortization period: 30 years (as of 10/01/2019 valuation) Asset smoothing method: All assets are valued at market value with an adjustment made to uniformly spread actuarial gains and losses (as measured by actual market value investment made to uniformly spread actuarial investment gains and losses (as measured by actual market value investment returns against expected market value investment return) over a five-year period.

Inflation: 2.5% per year. Salary increases: Salary Scale Service Rate 0 10% 1-4 7% 5+ 6% These rates were developed in an August 10, 2018 experience study. Interest rate: 6.80% per year, compounded annually, net of investment related expenses. Payroll growth: None assumed for amortization of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability.

Normal Retirement Rates: Number of Years after First Eligibility for Normal Retirement Probability of Normal Retirement 0 60% 1 40% 2 40% 3 40% 4 40% 5 or more 100%

For those retiring with 25 or more years of service, Members are assumed to retire at 25 years of service at a rate of 75% per year and 100% for all years thereafter. These rates were adjusted as part of an August 10, 2018 experience study.

Early retirement rate: Commencing upon eligibility for Early Retirement, Members are assumed to retire with an immediate benefit at the rate of 5.0% per year. These rates were confirmed in an August 10, 2018 experience study. Termination rates: See table below.

Prior year assumption (Male): 60% RP2000 Disabled Male setback four years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.

All rates are projected generationally with Mortality Improvement Scale MP-2018. We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements.

The previously described mortality assumption rates were mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida. This law mandates the use of the assumptions used in either of the two most recent valuations of the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The above rates are those outlined in Milliman’s July 1, 2019 FRS valuation report for special risk employees, with appropriate adjustments made based on plan demographics.

These rates were confirmed in an August 10, 2018 Experience Study. We feel these rates are reasonable based on long-term expectations.

It is assumed that 75% of disablements and active Member deaths are service related.

The assumed rates of disablement were utilized and carried over from the prior actuary. The Plan feels these rates are consistent with those utilized for plans containing other Florida municipal police officers.

Changes of benefit terms: During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Ordinance No. 2017-10 implemented the following changes: * Provided clarification that the pre-retirement death benefit shall be reduced by 3% per year for each year that commencement precedes the Normal Retirement Date, with a maximum reduction of 15%. * Provided details regarding the treatment of the existing Excess State Monies Reserve and how future annual State Monies will be allocated between the City and the Share Plan. * Provided that members hired on or after January 2, 2011 will be able to participate in the Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP). Changes of assumptions: For measurement date September 30, 2020, as mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida, the assumed rates of mortality were changed to the rates used in Milliman's July 1, 2019 FRS valuation report for special risk employees, with appropriate adjustments made based on plan demographics. Additionally, the investment return assumption was reduced from 6.95% to 6.80%, net of investment related expenses. For measurement date September 30, 2018, based on the actuarial experience study dated August 9, 2018, the Board reduced the interest rate to 6.95%, modified the salary increase rates to use a service-based table and updated retirement rates. For measurement date September 30, 2016, as a result of Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida, the assumed rates of mortality were changed to the assumptions used by the Florida Retirement System for special risk employees, the inflation assumption rate was lowered from 3.00% to 2.5%, and the investment rate of return was lowered from 7.20% to 7.10%.

A. Budgetary information

An annual budget is prepared for all funds of the City except for the Pension Trust Fund, which is effectively controlled through governing agreements and related City ordinances. The annual operating budgets are prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles except for the Enterprise Fund, uses a modified basis that includes debt proceeds, capital contributions, capital outlay and debt service principal.

Budgets are adopted by the City Council pursuant to City Charter using the following procedures:

• Budget preparation begins with the formulation of a budget calendar by the City Manager, which is distributed generally during April of each year. • Workshops with the City Council are then held regarding budget priorities. • Budget instructions containing City Council priorities are then distributed to department heads along with forms and worksheets. • Each department of the City submits an initial expenditure budget proposal to the Finance Director during May of each year. The Finance Director prepares a proposed budget showing each fund, organization unit (department), program activity, purpose or object of expenditure for the past three years, the current years actual to date and budget, and the next year's proposed budget. • The City Manager reviews the departmental request, and then meets with department heads, where proposed departmental budgets are amended. • The City Manager and Finance Director prepare their final revenue estimates, which contain comparative and estimated data for each fund and revenue source, during June. • The proposed budget is presented to the City Council during July each year. At this time, the City Clerk advertises the public hearing on the proposed budget. • The City Council holds a series of budget workshops and public hearings on the proposed budget, and adopts the official annual budget of the City during September of each year. • When the budget is formally approved, budget documents are distributed to departments for budget implementation on October 1. During the fiscal year, the Finance Director monitors and reviews budgetary activities and prepares projections to be used to determine year-end cash balance and to prepare for the upcoming fiscal year budget.

Budgetary integration is established in the accounting records for management control purposes at the object of expenditure level; however, the City Charter establishes the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed the total City-wide appropriations. Therefore, the City Manager may, at any time, transfer appropriation amounts between line items, expenditure classifications, departments and funds without formal approval by City Council.

However, any revisions that increase the total appropriations at the fund level of the City must be approved through amendment by the City Council. The Council approved several budgetary amendments during the year.

Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the City. This schedule estimates the portion of Brevard County's net general obligation debt that is borne by the residents and businesses of the City of West Melbourne. However, this does not imply that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping government.

(1) The percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using the taxable assessed value of properties located within the City of West Melbourne divided by the county's total taxable assessed value. FY2020 total taxable assessed value for City of West Melbourne is $2,848,401,879 and the total County taxable assessed value is $68,118,593,800.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of West Melbourne, Florida

We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of West Melbourne, Florida, as of and for the year ended September 30, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated February 24, 2021.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting (“internal control”) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of West Melbourne, Florida‘s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, SD 2020-001, that we consider to be a significant deficiency.

- 145 - 8A - 152 SD 2020-001 PROPER AUTHORIZATION FOR ASSET DISPOSALS

Criteria: Segregation of duties is an essential component of internal control, providing for risk management by dispersing key function in a process – authorization, custody of assets and recording of transactions – to more than one person. As segregation of duties relates to disposal of capital assets, the sale, trade-in or other form of removal from service of any assets should be approved by someone other than the person initiating the request. The City’s policies state any assets disposed or auctioned must first be written up and presented “for formal notification and approval before the asset(s) can be disposed of.”

Condition: During our audit, we noted there were some (but not all) disposals of capital assets initiated by department heads that were not approved by senior management prior to auction or removal from service.

Cause: Department heads provided information related to capital assets that were no longer in service or disposed of to the Senior Accounting Clerk without having been remitted to Senior Management for approval.

Effect: While most of the assets removed from the Fixed Asset system were fully depreciated, the City was not in compliance with its policy requiring formal notification and approval prior to removal of capital assets from the City’s Fixed Asset system.

Recommendation: The City should comply with its policy to obtain formal approval of capital assets being disposed of by someone other than the person initiating the request. Further, the City should periodically review its policies related to the management of its capital asset inventory to ensure that policies continue to be relevant and effective.

Management Response: The City will continue to require that a “Fixed Asset Disposal Form” be submitted to the Finance Department for assets that are being disposed, even if fully depreciated and/or obsolete. These forms will be reviewed by both the Senior Accounting Clerk and the Accounting Operations Manager before any assets are deleted through the BS&A Fixed Assets System.

Most major disposals, either through sale or trade-in, usually involve City Council approval because of the dollar value of the replacement asset or it involves vehicles which are annually reviewed by City Council during the budgeting process. All titled vehicles that are auctioned off will continue to require the signature of the City Manager on the title and asset disposal form.

We have updated our capital assets policy as of October 1st, 2020 to reflect the review and approval of disposal process that was currently being followed and to reflect the most recent change in Florida Statutes, for which the City will use $5,000 as the City’s new threshold for categorizing a purchase as a capital asset. We will also prepare a list of disposals for City Council to review and approve in a ministerial action, on an annual basis, as is written in our revised Fixed Asset Policies and Procedures.

- 146 - 8A - 153 City of West Melbourne, Florida’s Response to Finding

City of West Melbourne, Florida’s response to the finding identified in our audit is described above. The City of West Melbourne, Florida’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of West Melbourne, Florida’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Prior Audit Findings

Section 10.554(1)(i)1., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we determine whether or not corrective actions have been taken to address findings and recommendations made in the preceding annual financial audit report. Corrective action has been taken (Resolution No. 2020-24) to address the finding and recommendation made in the preceding financial audit report.

Prior Year Management Letter Comments: * Status IC 2019-001 Unexpended Balance – Building Permits Repeated, Revised

*The finding listed above originated in the fiscal year 2019 audit.

- 149 - 8A - 156 Official Title and Legal Authority

Section 10.554(1)(i)4., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that the name or official title and legal authority for the primary government and each component unit of the reporting entity be disclosed in this management letter, unless disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The legal authority of the City of West Melbourne, Florida and its component unit is disclosed in the footnotes. The City of West Melbourne, Florida includes the following component unit:

Component Unit: Established by: City of West Melbourne – Brevard County Joint Community City Ordinance 2012- Redevelopment Agency 19 dated July 17, 2012

Financial Condition

Section 10.554(1)(i)5.a. and 10.556(7), Rules of the Auditor General, require that we apply appropriate procedures and communicate the results of our determination as to whether or not the City of West Melbourne, Florida has met one or more of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes, and to identify the specific condition(s) met. In connection with our audit, we determined that the City of West Melbourne, Florida did not meet any of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes.

Pursuant to Sections 10.554(1)(i)5.b. and 10.556(8), Rules of the Auditor General, we applied financial condition assessment procedures. It is management's responsibility to monitor the City of West Melbourne, Florida's financial condition, and our financial condition assessment was based in part on representations made by management and the review of financial information provided by same.

Section 10.554(1)(i)2., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we communicate any recommendations to improve financial management. In connection with our audit, we have the following recommendation:

IC 2019-001 UNEXPENDED BALANCE – BUILDING PERMITS (Updated & Revised in FY2020)

Criteria: Section 553.80(7)(a) of Florida Statutes has been updated to limit the amount of unexpended building permit funds carried forward to future fiscal years to no more than the City’s average operating budget for enforcing the Florida Building Code for the previous four (4) fiscal years. A local government must use any funds in excess of this limitation to rebate or reduce fees.

Condition: The City’s unexpended building permit funds at September 30, 2020 exceeded the City’s average operating budget for enforcing the Florida Building Code for the previous four (4) fiscal years by $2,623,843.

Cause: Prior to July 1, 2019, there was no provision in the Florida Statutes limiting the amount of carryforward of unexpended building permit funds. In prior fiscal years, the annual revenue derived from building permit fees exceeded anticipated amounts.

Effect: The City has excess unexpended balances at September 30, 2020.

- 150 - 8A - 157 Recommendation: The City should identify how it intends to reduce the amount of unexpended building code balances in order to comply with Section 553.80(7)(a) of Florida Statutes. Such action may require the City to modify its fiscal year 2020-21 budget.

Management Response: The City recognizes the need to reduce the fund balance restricted for Building Code Enforcement. To reduce the unexpended building code balance, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-07 on May 5, 2020 waiving and reducing certain building plan check and inspection fees. On September 24, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-22 extending this waiver and reduction through September 30, 2021. On October 6, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution 2020-24 waiving and reducing additional building plan check and inspection fees through September 30, 2021.

Additional Matters

Section 10.554(1)(i)3., Rules of the Auditor General, requires us to communicate noncompliance with provisions of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse, that have occurred, or are likely to have occurred, that have an effect on the financial statements that is less than material but which warrants the attention of those charged with governance. In connection with our audit, we did not note any such findings.

Purpose of this Letter

Our management letter is intended solely for the information and use of the Legislative Auditing Committee, members of the Florida Senate and the Florida House of Representatives, the Florida Auditor General, Federal, State and other granting agencies, the members of the City Council, and applicable management, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Date: March 2, 2021 SUBJECT

Ordinance No. 2021-09 Amending Sec. 10-5, Distance Requirement for Alcoholic Beverage Sales RECOMMENDATION The City Attorney recommends that the City Council: Approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 2021-09, amending Chapter 10 – Alcoholic Beverages, Section 10-5 – Distance Requirement for Sale Near School, Church, Kindergarten, Nursery School, Child Care Center or Public Park, to allow for City lessees, concessionaires, contractors, and special event permit holders with alcoholic beverage licenses to operate within defined areas of public park and recreation areas.

FISCAL IMPACT None.

8B - 1 March 2, 2021 DISCUSSION

BACKGROUND At the City Council meeting on February 2, 2021, Jeff Kiel, president and CEO of Promise Inc., spoke during the public forum portion of the agenda about the Promise Café and Bakery, located in the West Melbourne Community Park. Mr. Kiel stated that the Promise Café had hosted several very successful meetings and gatherings in recent months. However, he noted that the Promise Café’s potential as an event venue is limited by a prohibition on the sale or provision of alcoholic beverages contained in the lease agreement between the City and Promise Inc. Mr. Kiel requested that the Promise Café be allowed to serve alcohol in its capacity as an event venue. Mr. Kiel stated that Promise has no intention to sell alcoholic beverages to the general public, or to allow customers to take alcohol outside of the Promise Café property. I advised the City Council that, in addition to the lease prohibition relating to alcohol, Sec. 10-5 of the City Code of Ordinances would also operate to prevent the service of alcoholic beverages at the Promise Café. Sec. 10-5 prohibits businesses or establishments with alcoholic beverage licenses from being located within either 100 or 500 feet from schools, churches, kindergartens, nursery schools, child care centers, and public parks. The applicable distance requirement depends on the type of alcoholic beverage license held by the business or establishment. By consensus, the City Council indicated that it was amenable to allowing events and gatherings at the Promise Café that involve alcoholic beverages. Further, Deputy Mayor Dittmore suggested relaxing the rules for alcoholic beverages in parks generally, in order to facilitate potential special events such as concerts at the West Melbourne Community Park. Accordingly, I have prepared an ordinance amending Sec. 10-5 of the City Code of Ordinances. If adopted, Ordinance No. 2021-09 will do the following: 1. It will allow City lessees, concessionaires, or contractors to operate a business or establishment with an alcoholic beverage license in a location that does not meet the separation requirements set forth in Sec. 10-5. This exemption is limited to instances where a lease, concession agreement, or contract specifically permits the lessee, concessionaire, or contractor to operate the licensed business or establishment. The specific rules and restrictions governing alcoholic beverages will be specified in each individual lease, agreement, or contract, allowing them to be flexible and narrowly tailored, rather than rigid and painted with a broad brush.

2. It will clarify that the City may grant special permission for the sale of alcoholic beverages during special events within defined areas of a public park or recreation area and for specific times. My intent is to bring forward a comprehensive ordinance providing detailed criteria and regulations for special events in the near future. At present, the City Code of Ordinances does not effectively address special events. In addition to amending the City Code of Ordinances, the existing lease must be amended in order to facilitate Promise’s request. I am presently negotiating a proposed amendment with Promise Inc. Promise Inc.’s use of the Promise Café as an event venue is not expressly permitted under the current lease. The proposed lease amendment will address that issue. It will also set forth detailed rules and regulations regarding the sale and provision of alcoholic beverages at the 8B - 2 Promise Café. Items which I have incorporated in a draft lease amendment currently under review by Promise Inc. include: • a prohibition on the sale of alcohol products to the general public; • a limitation on the size of events at which alcohol is to be served; • a requirement that Promise obtain the appropriate alcoholic beverage license(s) from the state; • a requirement that Promise obtain liquor liability insurance naming the City as an additional insured; • a requirement that Promise be responsible for compliance with all applicable state and local alcohol regulations; • a requirement that Promise prevent alcoholic beverages from leaving the Promise Café property and entering the remainder of the West Melbourne Community Park; • a requirement that Promise submit a written plan of action, including control methods, to the City Manager for approval; • a requirement that Promise notify the Chief of Police of certain large events involving alcoholic beverages, and providing that the Chief of Police may require Promise, at its own expense, to secure such police protection as the Chief of Police deems necessary; and • a provision that the City Council may unilaterally terminate Promise’s alcoholic beverage privileges should the City experience alcohol-related problems or disturbances that are not resolved to the City’s satisfaction. I intend to bring the proposed lease amendment to the City Council at the same meeting at which the Council will consider the second reading of Ordinance No. 2021-09, if approved by the City Council on first reading. CONCLUSION I recommend that the City Council approve on first reading Ordinance No. 2021-09. If so approved, the City will advertise a public hearing on the second reading of Ordinance No. 2021- 09 for the City Council meeting on March 16, 2021.
