City of Satellite Beach

FROM THE COUNCIL DESK BY DOMINICK MONTANARO

TALLAHASSEE INTRUDING INTO YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE

FACTS ABOUT THE MID-REACH BEACH RENOURISHMENT PROJECT

Satellite Beach provides exemplary services to our residents. Our first responders, Police and Fire, are usually on scene 2 to 4 minutes after a call is received. Public Works keeps our City looking great, and our recreation programs are the best in Brevard County. The building department and administrative staff in our City do so much with so little, as they are creative and work to maximize our city dollars for the

benefit of all.

Quality of life is the reason many residents move to and stay in our City. Your Council and staff know what our City residents expect: the highest quality services at the most reasonable cost. Home Rule is government closest to the people serving its residents. Every city is different and they make decisions based on what works best in

their communities.

There are things happening in Tallahassee that could change the dynamics of how we operate our city. The current mindset at the Capital is that they know your needs better than we do. Several bills passed the 2016

Legislative Session that directly affect our ability to provide services to you.

City Manager Courtney Barker touched on one of these elements in the last Beachcaster, specifically the topic

of Vacation Rentals. This involves the State attempting to regulate what happens in our residential

neighborhoods, by allowing vacation getaways to operate next door to your home. This is just one example of

Tallahassee preempting our local ordinances meant to protect our residents. (continued on Page 2)

From Brevard County Natural Resources Department and City of Satellite Beach

More than a decade of collaboration with multiple state and federal agencies, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission and Florida Department of Environmental Protection, steered the design of Brevard County’s Mid-Reach Beach Mitigation project, which is now underway east of the Satellite Beach shoreline. Throughout this process, comments from both the public and agency scientists were addressed prior to plan approval, including discussions before the County Commission approximately 30 times since 2005. The project carefully balances the need to minimize impact to the natural rock reefs while maintaining a healthy beach and dune system to provide protection to the upland community, public infrastructure and tourism economy. This healthy beach will preserve marine turtle nesting habitat and help avoid the push for

coastal armor and seawalls, which are being seen in some counties just north of Brevard.

This past week, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) began construction of artificial mitigation reefs. The reefs are low-lying, concrete mats topped with coquina limestone and are being placed in approximately 15 feet of water, roughly 1,000 feet from the beach.

(Continued from front page)

The Wireless Communication Infrastructure Bill (HB 687) was passed and signed by the Governor, and enables the placement of wireless facilities infrastructure on city property and rights of way, preempting our ability to determine size, location and the look of the equipment to aesthetically blend into our city. The ability of cities to negotiate with these companies on how they compensate the city for using our property

was also eliminated.

House Joint Resolution 7105 passed both Chambers and was signed by the Governor. It will be a proposed constitutional amendment on the 2018 ballot for an additional $25,000 homestead exemption. If it passes it will be a $630,000 hit to our City’s budget when implemented - we are then forced to either raise taxes or

cut services.

HB 17 proposed preempting the regulation of business to the state. Impacts would have included: adult entertainment ordinances the city has in place would go away, we would not be able to regulate noise ordinances, hours of operations, lighting in parking lots, and the list goes on! HB 17 did not pass this year but

some semblance of it will return in 2018.

In January 2018 I officially take office as President of the Space Coast League of Cities. This organization is comprised of the 16 municipalities in Brevard County. We each advocate for our Cities with our State

Representatives and Senators when they are here at home and in Tallahassee as well.

My initiative as President for 2018 is “Engaging our Communities”, I will be attending a city council meeting in each city during September and October. My message will be when bad legislation starts happening we need to make calls to our legislators. We also need our residents to call too! Elected officials need to hear

from you, especially when it directly affects your quality of life.

We will be setting up a communication network working with the Florida League of Cities which sends out daily notices on every bill. The bills that directly affect us will be our priorities. Our City web site and the City Manager’s Facebook page will have information as well. We are in our infancy at this stage in the

development of these initiatives, but will keep you posted as the process moves forward.

Home Rule is what made Satellite Beach the community it is, and we need your help to keep it that way!

(Beach Renourishment article continued)

In total, there will be 10 reef sites constructed in patches from Pelican Beach Park to just south of Howard E. Futch Memorial Park at Paradise Beach. Construction will occur over the summers of 2017 and 2018 when

weather is the most favorable.

The sites will form approximately 4.8 acres of reef area constructed to mitigate up to three acres of near-shore coquina rock reef which may be impacted by sand during future beach restoration work by the Corps. Although the future beach work will focus on avoiding nearshore rock during sand placement, some rock (less

than 10 percent) may be covered by sand as the beach equilibrates.

The reef mats have a low relief that will not influence the wave break and were designed to provide good habitat for diverse colonies of marine life. The reef project should not affect beachgoers, but a crane barge will be visible as it works constructing the artificial reefs offshore. Brevard County serves as the local sponsor

for this work.

The Mid-Reach storm damage reduction (beach nourishment) project and its impact on natural nearshore reefs have been grossly exaggerated in social media and websites by critics of the project. It is important to understand that the Mid-Reach project is not a wide beach nourishment project as can be found elsewhere in Brevard County. The Mid-Reach project will only extend the beach from 10 to 20 feet, depending on the location, to protect most of the rock reef resource. This is far less than the 100 feet that

has been stated in social media and websites.

“The beach project will construct and maintain a healthy dune with vegetation and a slightly higher upper beach, but will only marginally widen the beach,” said Mike McGarry, Beaches Program Manager with Brevard County Natural Resources Department. “This design was put in place to provide the shore protection

Picking up after your pet can be a stinky job, but as a pet owner, that responsibility lies with you. There are many reasons why removing pet waste is important, it is not only the neighborly thing to do, but it is also the environmentally sensitive thing to do. Contrary to popular belief, pet waste is not a fertilizer and does not provide any benefit to the soil. Pet feces can be catastrophic to the local water table, contaminating nearby ponds, lakes, rivers and drinking water. When feces are allowed to remain on soil for long periods, rainstorms begin to dilute and break apart the feces and slowly spread the bacteria or other contaminants into local water sources. If your yard happens to hold water for extended periods of time, the problem may be amplified. Excess nutrients and organic matter in pet waste can cause algae blooms that block sunlight and kill underwater vegetation. Decaying pet waste uses up oxygen in the water that fish and other aquatic

species need to live.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? Always clean up after your pets, never dispose of pet waste down storm drains, and

bag dog waste and dispose of it in a trash receptacle. Encourage other pet owners to be responsible.

The City, in conjunction with the FDEP and EPA, has spent significant resources treating stormwater runoff in an effort to remove nutrients before they enter the Indian River Lagoon. As residents, there are a number of things you can do to assist in this ongoing effort. Picking up after your pet is just one of the actions you can

take to help us maintain a healthy Lagoon.

CLEANING UP AFTER YOUR PET HELPS OUR LAGOON!

and recreational benefits desired, while minimizing impact to the valuable nearshore rock reefs.”

Of the 42.5 acres of nearshore rock reef mapped in central Brevard, less than 3 acres (approximately 7%) are expected to be impacted by sand placement. Some of this impact, or burial, will be temporary or seasonal but all of it will be addressed through mitigation. Sand placement is expected to begin in 2019,

after mitigation is complete.

To compensate for the rock impact, McGarry said 4.8 acres of mitigation reef are being constructed. The reef was designed with input from biologists and regulatory agencies to match the ecological benefits provided by the natural reefs. Field experiments were conducted and verified that a similar algal and sabellarid worm rock community could recruit to the mitigation reef. The reefs are low lying, standing only 2 feet from the ocean floor, to mimic existing reef profiles and avoid affecting the wave break or providing cover for large predators. Spacing between reef mats and under ledges was scaled specifically to provide

shelter for juvenile green turtles that spend time in the area.

The City owns 40% of our beachfront, with three parks and fifteen beach accesses. “I think people sometimes forget what our beaches looked like after the 2004 hurricanes, says City Manager Courtney Barker. “If homes can fall into the dunes, so can Pelican Beach Park. Future storms and sea level rise can have a profound impact on our beaches, and it is important that we protect these resources for

our future generations.”

Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Financing is a way to finance energy efficiency, renewable energy,

and wind mitigation upgrades to buildings. PACE can pay for solar panels, storm shutters, energy efficient

windows, roof replacement, new heating and cooling systems, lighting improvements, water pumps, insulation,

wind mitigation hardening upgrades to lower costs on insurance premiums, and more, for almost any

property – homes, commercial, industrial, non-profit, and agricultural. PACE financing pays for 100% of a

project’s costs and is repaid over a period of up to 20 years through a voluntary non-ad valorem assessment

added to the property’s tax bill. PACE assessments stay with the property upon sale unless you choose to

pay it off when selling. PACE assessments are co-equal in dignity with all other assessments on the tax bill.

PACE assessments are not considered a loan by credit agencies. Eligibility and interest charged do not

depend on an applicant’s credit score. For more information visit the City’s website and follow the links to the

different PACE providers’ websites. www.satellitebeach.org/residents_visitors/sustainable_satellite.php

PROTECTING YOU AND YOUR HOME FROM LIGHTNING STRIKES Each year in the United States, more than 400 people are struck by lightning. Most thunderstorms develop in the summer during the afternoon and evening. The key to being safe is to avoid the lightning threat and have a plan. Many people wait far too long to seek shelter and put themselves in a dangerous and

potentially deadly situation.

If you hear thunder, you’re in striking distance of the storm and need to get to a safe place immediately.

Wait 30 minutes after the last lightning strike before going outside.

Lightning victims are safe to touch. If someone is unresponsive, immediately call 911 and begin CPR.

Lightning causes about 25,000 fires each year, including more than 4,000 house fires. If you see fire or

smell smoke, evacuate your house immediately and call 911.

Lightning can enter your home through wires, cables, and pipes. Surge suppressors can help prevent

lightning from entering via phone and electrical wires.

While being inside can provide good protection during a thunderstorm, there are hidden dangers inside. Anything that is plugged into a wall outlet can become electrified by a lightning strike. Stay off corded phones; avoid contact with the sinks, faucets, tubs and showers; and stay away from windows and doors.

Cordless electronics and phones are safe to use during the storm.

Lightning rods are designed to protect a building from a direct lightning strike by attempting to intercept the lightning strike and provide a conductive path for the lightning to follow. Lightning rods need to be connected to a large copper or aluminum cable

which, in turn, needs to be connected to ground terminals.

A lightning strike to a vehicle may melt an antenna, shatter a window, damage the electronics, and blow out the tires but fortunately, the outer

metal shell of the vehicle protects the people inside.

The Satellite Beach Police Department encourages parents to take advantage of our “Child ID” program which consists of an informational form containing essential information about your child. Every second counts when a child is missing, and valuable time can be lost when first responders are trying to obtain critical information from panic-stricken parents. In the event that your child is reported missing, the Child ID form is

used to immediately broadcast vital information to first responders.

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) states that when recovering a missing child, the most important tools for law enforcement are up-to-date, quality photograph and descriptive information. Parents should complete the Child ID Kit by attaching a recent photograph of your child and listing all identifying and medical information. Update the photograph and information every 6 months, and keep the kit in a secure, accessible location. To pick up a Child ID kit, please stop by the Police Department

at 510 Cinnamon Drive or for more information contact Commander Bert Berrios at 321-773-4400.

The Board would like to encourage everyone to walk or ride your bike to the event

and prizes will be given out for doing it!

There were many hands that have helped create this garden, and the City is very thankful to everyone who has pitched in. The idea of the garden was brought before the Board last year by 9 year old resident Roman Vigliotti and was passed by City Council. The garden is modeled after the F.I.T. garden “Ethos” and F.I.T intern Zach Eichholz helped with the design. Eagle Scout Troop

309 helped gather volunteers to help with the build.
