presentations. Item A, state legislative updates by Senator Lori Berman, District 26, and State Representative Py uh Peggy Gosset Sidman, District 91. Thank you very much for being here today.
Come up together. All right. Um, good afternoon everyone. I'm State Senator Lori Berman. Um I have represented Highland Beach for the last eight years and we do have term limits. So this is my last um session in the legislature. I
don't plan on running again. Um and uh it's been my honor and privilege and pleasure to represent all of you in the legislature. So um as you I'm sure you've heard, we have one job and we didn't do it. Um, so
we will be going back to Tallahassee to finish a budget. Um, the rumors were maybe next Monday, but as it gets closer and we haven't called for Monday, it's unlikely. We are going up April a week from Monday for um special session to do
congressional redistricting. The governor has called for that. So, we'll see. We really It's kind of a mystery when we'll do the budget. It's not due technically until July 1st. Um, so there's plenty of wiggle room.
Last year we were a lot later than this, so we'll see when it comes through. Um, and there is one project in play for Highland Beach, and I'll let my colleague talk a little bit about that also. Um, so I like to give you a little bit of a review of what we did on
preeemption. And I have to tell you, this year was really bad. I know we have uh we worked together a lot to fight a lot of these preeemption bills. Um but there was a lot that happened in the legislature this year. Um probably one
of the biggest ones that will impact you is we changed the sovereign immunity law. So um now you can be liable for um 350,000 per person and 500,000 per incident. um the cap the numbers aren't
that much more significant, but you can anticipate that when somebody sues, they're probably going to ask for those kind of numbers. And also, your insurance will probably go up um that you get for your sovereign immunity insurance. Um just a few like other
things that we did on the preeemption area that you should be aware of and I know you guys have good attorneys and the League of Cities will be also giving you reports about some of the things. Um, you're not allowed to limit the type of fuel that a leaf blower uses. That is
in the agricultural bill. Um, you're not allowed to fund anything having to do with diversity, equity, and inclusion. Um, so if you are specifically funding some a program for one ethnic group, you really have to
make sure that it falls within one of the exceptions of the bill. One of the things, for instance, if you wanted to fund something for Black History Month, you are allowed to do that because um it's a federal recognized holiday. So, um it's a little tricky. You'll have to,
you know, navigate that a little bit. Um we just spoke about the preeemption. Um, you are going to also under House Bill 1329 have to post um information on your
local government website um allowing members to view data and it has to um and you also have to participate in a cost cutting exercise. You have it's uh I believe you have to cut 10% but in the exercise but you don't actually have to
do it. It's just an exercise that you will have to be doing. um you are prohibited from doing any legislation that would adopt or implement P policies that are net zero greenhouse gas
admission admissions. So, um, there is a we asked the question if you wanted to have a bus that was a a bus that uses electricity and they said it it's questionable because you have to see if you're putting if it costs you more money to get that bus. Um, you're going
to have to justify that in the long run it won't cost you more money. So, kind of pretty disappointed about that uh greenhouse gas emission one. Um, and there were some changes on some of the um when building codes uh that you're
going to be allowed to do. Um, you have to administratively improve cert approve certain applications and usually like some time limits and things like that. So, as you can tell, it was pretty significant amount of of action this year on on the preeemption front. Um,
but uh I will let I'm going to pass it now to my colleague and let her talk about some of the bills that we passed that were really good bills in the legislature. Thank you. Can you stay here? Thank you. Hello everyone. Back home after two and a half months was is
really a great feeling and I'm sure the senator feels the same way. And um Lori and I work very closely. I'm I trying to find a way to keep her up there in Tallahassee. We're still working on that. Um but but we I just want to add to the uh to your caveat here that
really we when we Lori and I get up when the senator and I get up to Tallahassee, we're still one vote. And there are times that I'm I'm like no, no. And we're able in the House in the Senate to alter bills. We had a bill for example
399 in the house and it had all kinds of little hidden in in in undercurrence of well less and less capabilities for home rule and we chipped away at that and got it in a better place so that finally we
were able to pass it. that if if great municipalities like Highland Beach and Boca Raton are so well-run and and many many of our cities here in Palm Beach County and you have to remember in statewide many are not and so we have to
make decisions that of course putting our districts in place first but we have to take in account these other districts. For example, there's one town in North Central Florida and they took the assistant clerk and made him clerk and then he made him assistant town
manager. Like every time there was an increase, there was like a doubling of salary and then town manager and then fired him and made him a consultant at five times the salary of the original hire. Not not right. Turns out he didn't even leave live in the in the district in the
city. So we look at these things and we go, "No, you really need to do things a differently way." So when when we vote, we chip away at these bills, which you all don't see. You wouldn't want to sit on on the Florida Channel for 10 hours a day, I'm sure. So that's where we come when you say, "Oh, what happened to
that?" That's what happened. And we do the best to to make sure that the the the concerns of these municipalities are first and foremost. Um, we proudly together passed two bills this year. I know people who didn't pass one bill.
And so that we we just had a very interesting session with these priorities of insurance, property taxes, and some of these other areas that the senator covered. And so we, this one bill was extremely cool at hardly any
cost to the state. This is this is a bill called the Haven Act. And it allows people who are victims of domestic violence, women, but sometimes men, to actually carry a special phone, which
allows you to text and text the police and text and take phones, take your phone and take photos and videos. And this system would allow instant access to police instead of routing through an answer, call center. And that's where
when you're under attack or threat, this is a major assistant for some of these people die because they can't get to a phone or they can't get to a phone without speaking like, "Hi, I'm being attacked. Please send police." This way they can hit a button, even hit a
special code and get instant help. There was a woman last year in Broward, you may have heard, who was gunned down along with her neighbor and her father because she couldn't get to her phone and make a call. So, this was a very cool bill and we're very proud of that. Um, when the senator, to give you an
example, she brought it to me in the fall and by like the second the second to the last part of our session in the House, they still hadn't brought it to the floor and she's saying, "Where's that bill?" I'm going, "I don't know." And I'm running around to five offices. Here's we're getting it done. Where's
the bill? Oh yeah, let's get it up. It went up two days later. So that's what we do. We're we're uh we're a lot of we're 120 in the House, 40 in the Senate, and we're all going to some of the same people to get our bills heard. So two was a great a great um a great
gain for us. I also had a bill pass off the House which um was not through the Senate, but we'll work on that. And it is um taking the college language in in all of our state colleges and some private who are heavily funded and ha
having that language match throughout the state because we have we have privileges at these schools and this regards campaigns and voting and student organizations and they were all over the place as far as bringing in speakers,
campaigns, access to speakers and a lot of it. This was going on before the Charlie Kirk situation, but after that it became prevalent like no one knows what the rules are. And I looked at the best set of rules was FAMU right down the street from our from our our
capital. And the worst was UF. Sorry, Gators. And so we're bringing that back. And that's an example where government is great. We all have the same idea, but the language is all over the place and we have to simplify it. Um, speaking of property taxes, we don't know is the
answer. We're two people, but we're committed to working on the tax package and making the package work the best we can. I personally do not think we're going to I this is a personal opinion. I do not think we're going to get in there
and come up with an extreme answer. Nothing extreme. I think we'll chip away and we'll work. will take all the um priorities of the House, the Senate, and the Governor and look at it and come up with the best package. We have a lot of
really extremely bright, genius leaders, and they don't always agree, but down the road, they will agree. So, you'll have to give us a little time and we'll be getting back to you. And if there's anything else, I guess we could take a few questions. Anything else, Lori? >> Yeah, I just wanted to mention the other
bill that we passed because I do love it. And it was right. It was through our um >> our school board asked for the bill. Uh so um what it does is um if you're a student with a disability and an in an IEP plan, you can u participate in the
special Olympics and that will cover your um physical education requirement. So and it was we got that done in one year which is amazing because not ideas usually have to germinate through the legislature >> and and to add it included band. So,
what we had is kids with disabilities right here at Bokeh High and and band who puts in I I said to to the laughs of a couple of guys who played football at Florida State, no, but band often works
out just as hard as football team and and they were they're out there five, six days a week for I researched it. I called like five universities. How long do you guys practice and high schools? And so the bill covers PE credit for
band uh one band and one art two years for two for one year of PE and for dis disabled kids. Some of them were not even able of doing the appropriated program that makes exceptions for dis disabled kids. So there are kids who could not get their PE credit even to
graduate. And we've made that easy now. And we've I've had three states call me and say, "Hey, can we copy your language?" So, we're in a good place with that. Thank you. >> And then, um, I just want to go over the the appropriation from Highland Beach, the pedestrian safety and traffic
improvement project. Um, the request was 375,000 there. Uh, Peggy gotund half the that amount in the um house and we're hoping that we'll at least match that and maybe even get it up when we get to the final
budget. And I do want to give kudos to your lobbyist Jared Rosenstein. He works very hard um on these projects and yeah. So >> okay and we're happy to take any questions that you might have.
>> Lisa, well thank you for your public service. Um uh my question and this is a little bit um more personal. Dating violence versus domestic violence. How prevalent is dating violence? >> Much more than you would think. >> Really? >> Yeah. There's a lot of dating violence.
So, we now are letting these people pro uh participate in the confidentiality program that the attorney general um has in place. You have to apply for it, but this way they can protect their addresses. If and the definition of dating violence is you have to have been
in a relationship for six months. So, it's not like you just went out with someone one or two times and got nervous about them. You have to have been in a relationship for six months. That's how we define dating violence. But, you'd be surprised. It's it's a lot more calm. >> Thank you. >> Prevalent. Thank you.
>> I just want to uh thank you both so much for your service. Uh you're um all you do for us. You're excited about it. You're involved in it. Uh to a degree that we should only have 100% of our
house and senate at that. So, um you are really so well respected with this commission and this town. and uh we will miss you uh Senator and uh we know that you're going to go on and contribute to our society for sure. Thank you. And I I
must mention the Haven Act is so important as a family law attorney. I have, you know, really direct knowledge about that, the need for that. So this is uh this is crucial. Thank >> Thank you. >> Yeah. I just want to say thank you too. Just uh pick up on that. You're great.
Both of you have been doing great things for Highland Beach, giving us a lot of money and uh Lori, we hate to see you go there, you know, stay involved somewhere, you know. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Just an outstanding job. We really appreciate it by both of you.
Thank you. >> Yes. And I completely agree. Thank you so much for your service. We really appreciate all the time and effort that you put into it. And I can only imagine all the modifications that you have had to make in order to make, you know,
common sense type type changes. Um, so we really appreciate all that you've done. So, thank you for your time and and giving of your talents and really appreciate it. >> You can go. Well, I was just going to say as I'm this year I was also the Democratic minority leader and so I met
with um the League of Cities weekly and they worked really hard to get the modifications to make things that were very bad just a little bit tolerable tolerable tolerable they did they worked really hard and you should know that they work really hard on your behalf.
Thank you. And I'll add, as you all know, I represented you at the League of Cities and learned so much so much from them and I would meet them in the hallways in the office and definitely they've been a great asset and they're they're very good about you call them, they're there in like two minutes. They're right down the street up the
street. But I want to add to the you all the big story in Highland Beach the last two years of course was A1A and the repaving and um now the Marine dock. Listen, Marshall Labidy, the town manager, not because he came from Michigan State, but because he's a
>> It helps. >> Yes, it does help. >> But he he is he is a brilliant and dedicated guy. And every time he would call, I would get on get on with F Dot called District 4. I went down the street and saw the couple of the people
at the main head at the state headquarters right near again near the capital luckily right nearby. But we tried very hard to help move it along, repair it. You could see the first time the swailes weren't deep enough and the road wasn't high enough. And geez. So
I'm glad finally it's come to a close, but we tried both Lori and I several times to get that rectified early on. And now with the Marine dock, we made some calls. So we are we are able to do a few things which surprised me when I first got up there that do have impact.
And the one story I'll relate is that this happened several times, but a guy not even from the district called and this is where we can help people and he said, "I have a I have a child who's must go to California for a medical
service for medical surgery and follow-up services, but California won't take our Medicaid." And they were underserved down in Miami. I don't know. They got my name from somewhere. I said, "Oh, because Medicaid is not reciprocal
in all states and California is nope. Nope, no." The kid would have died. I made calls. I called one of our state senators, Rick Scott. I called thinking, "Who can I who can I called my best friend from high school who's a psychologist out there, and I said, "Do
you have a guy who who will help us out?" She said, "Uh, yeah, I do." and she got her councilman on the phone with me. He got his Medicaid and we got the kid flown out there for free and his his surgery was a success. That now that
doesn't happen every week or every month, but that's where we can do things that help out greatly with people who are in need. And if it's out of district, so be it. You just try your hardest. So that passports, Medicare, if people have an issue, we are here to
help in our district offices as well. So, thank you everyone. >> Excellent. Thank you very much. Such great news. Thank you. >> Thank you all. >> See you soon. >> Yes. >> Moving on to 6B. Um, and this is um,
development order application number PZ26-1, Seagate of Highland Beach Condominiums. Application by Jason R. Gordon Pa Associates Incorporated for a major modification request to allow for the
construction of a new 472 square foot fire pump structure for the property located at 3224 South Ocean Boulevard. Um, and this is a public hearing of Quasi Judicial Proceeding. And for those
giving testimony on this item, can you please stand? and raise your right hand to be sworn in and provide testimony for the for the application you are affiliated with. And
Miss Gaskin, can you please swear swear in those giving testimony? >> By the authority vested in me as a notary of the state of Florida, do you swear or affirm that the testimony you're about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? Yes.
Okay. And um do any member of the commission have any exparte communications to disclose? >> Well, I do reside at Seagate. >> So, u wanted to disclose that. I don't know whether or not I can vote today on
it. >> How many units do you know off the top of your head? >> Three. >> How much? >> 316. >> Yeah, you're good. >> Okay. Usually if if you're less than one 1% is the so as long as it was over 100 you're good. >> Okay. >> Thank you.
>> And no one no one else had any kind of communication outside of the meeting. Okay. Excellent. Um at this time time I now open the public hearing. Town planner Allen please present the application. >> Okay. Good morning. Ingred Allen Town
Planner. Um, I figured we'd start off with some aerials of the subject property. Uh, these are all in your packet. Um, but I'll go over them briefly. Uh, so here we have the Seagate condominium. And you could see in this area you have
the four buildings here. One, two, three, four. And let's go to the next one. Um, this is another aerial. This is looking at the southeast corner of the property. Um, I put a little red arrow here that
shows the current bulk storage area. This is the vicinity of where the proposed uh fireprone structure is to be located. Again, here you have a another view of those four residential structures. Um, this is another uh slide. This is looking westward again the current bulk
storage area where the proposed structure is to be located. And you can also see some of the existing landscaping in the southeast corner of the Seagate condominium. And here we have an actual picture of what the bulk storage area currently
looks like. Um the applicant has indicated uh that they will remove this. Obviously they need to remove it to put the proposed structure. I had asked them uh during the development development review process if they were going to relocate it somewhere else on the property, but they did indicate that
they will not. So they will forego this uh bulk storage area. Um so what is before the town commission today? Uh you will be considering a major modification request. This is for the construction of a new 472
foot fire pump structure. Um, according to the applicant, the structure will house two new fire pumps which will service the four residential buildings of the community as well as the fire hose connections at the Seaw wall and dock area. Now, on the top of page 50 in your packets, I provided you some
history. Uh, the Seagate condominium was built in 1970 according to the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser and the proposed structure. When you look at the plans that are in your packet, uh, the proposed structure is encroaching in the building setback. However, uh the applicant did go before the board of
adjustment and appeals on October 23rd of 2025, and they did receive two variances. One variance allowing for the reduction in the front yard setback from 40 feet to 8' 7 in and a reduction in the sideyard south setback from 12 feet
to 7 ft. So, very important that that is called out. Uh the applicant has al also indicated there's going to be no alterations um or changes to the existing landscaping or to the existing parking spaces. And let's go ahead and take a look at
the plans. Again, these are all in your packet. Uh this is a survey of the property. Um again, in this southeast corner is uh the area we're looking at where the current bulk storage is located. And here you have the proposed site
plan. I've uh put a little blue square there to show you the proposed fire pump structure. The applicant has uh provided an enlarged site plan. Uh so you could kind of zoom in a little bit which is here on the bottom. I again highlighted the structure in blue. And the next two
slides these are the elevations. So the uh structure is a 10 foot in height from the finished floor elevation. And here we have some code renderings that the applicant uh provided. these just to give you some perspective. Uh here you have a view from the street. Um
so on and so forth. Uh this one on the far bottom on the right. This is how the structure will look. This will be the front of the structure. And here we have some more colored renderings again provided by the applicant. And then we have a final sheet. Uh this is just
showing that southeast corner, some of the existing landscaping there and some of the heights. Um when the applicant went before the board of adjustment and appeals, one of the board members asks about the existing landscaping. Um so that is put out there again just to give the commission a little bit of
perspective as to the height of some of that landscaping. I will note that the code does not require an accessory structure to be screened with landscaping, but just want to make reference to the sheet. Um, so on the middle of page 50, I provided you the
description of what a major modification is per our code, section 30-39. I've also provided you a definition of what an accessory use is per our code, as well as a definition of what an accessory structure. Um, how that's defined. Again, these are accessory structures are permitted in the zoning
district. Um, according to the applicant, the current fire pump room brooms located in each of the four residential buildings are insufficient to meet the current National Fire Protection Agency code requirements. These requirements include an increased flow rate, which requires larger larger fire pumps and clearances for repair and
maintenance. Uh, we do have a letter um on page 57 of your packets from our assistant fire chief, Matt Wilhath. Um, and u, Mr. Well, is here today if you have any questions a little bit later. Um now the major modification itself I know it's a little bit odd for the
commission to you know consider a major modification but um our code requires for a multif family development which is what this is right Seagate um any type of major modification requires a final decision-m the commission is the
final decision-making authority and you get a recommendation from the uh planning board. If this was a single family development, the code allows a major modification to be to get the final decision-making authority from the planning board. But again, because this is a multif family reality, then you are
the final decision-making authority. And according to the code, the commission today, you can approve approve with conditions or deny. Now, the planning board did have a special meeting yesterday. Um, they were supposed to meet on March 14th, but there unfortunately wasn't a quorum. So the
special meeting yesterday was held and the planning board did approve or make a recommendation to approve the major modification request that motion carried 70. Now um if the request is approved by the commission prior to initiation of construction obviously the applicant
will have to go uh get a building permit uh from our building department and commencement of construction again if the major modification is approved uh shall be initiated within two years following the date of approval by the town commission. Uh staff reviewed the applicant's proposed requests, including
planned states stamp received by the building department on February 25th of 2026 and finds that the project is consistent with the zoning code as well as the town comprehensive plan. Um I'll be happy to address any questions. We also have the applicant's agent. Uh that's Mr. Jason Bordon. He's also here
to address any questions. >> Question I guess Matt would answer. This is the we're talking 1970. So the uh pumps have been there now over 50 years. >> These are the originals. >> Um I the originals. Yes.
>> That Thank you. Excuse me. That aren't there anymore. There is no fire pumps there. They were they all failed. So they've been removed. Um there's a lot of other issues that are part of this new construction. the fire pump house is just is just the replacement of those
pumps. Um the pumps uh that were there were smaller. The controllers weren't there. There's a lot of things that go along with the meeting the the current standard for fire pump installations that without doing this we wouldn't be able to we'd have to figure out some
other method. So I kind of you know going back this is going back Tony and I talking about this almost three years ago and it's just been a long process to get to this point. Um, and you know, this is a life safety issue and you know, we went through a lot of different
iterations of things and this is kind of where we landed and then with ONS's help they they've been able to kind of come up with something we can get started very soon and put people back in a much safer condition. It's a the the this the
original design for Seagate, you know, which you we've all had these conversations is similar to a lot of other places in Highland Beach where it wasn't compliant when it was installed. It just was built that way. Now, we're trying to get it back to a state of
compliance. >> Amen. >> And even with that, we're not we're missing a couple things, but we're going to be in a much better place. And that's that's all I can ask for. >> Amen. Um I'm less concerned about the cosmetic look out on the outside, but um your team has done a fabulous job on the compliance issues. I mean, the best uh I
know we've ever worked with. And um I guess my my question is uh as far as lead time right now, how long will it take to get these pumps and everything in? >> Uh that's going to be I mean, as far as getting the pumps, I mean, that's going to take a little bit of time. Uh I don't
know what the overall you know once we get to this point we can probably develop a better plan of of the installation unless Tony might have >> I hear this >> you have to come up to the >> you have to speak in the mic >> working dramatic >> Tony what is your lead time in this
>> we can probably be finished by May of May of next year we can if we get this done and the permits are approved we can get equipment ordered they can put a shovel in the ground as early as June, late late May or early June is when they could put a shovel in the ground, start cutting cutting the the
black top and bringing the back hose in because they're going to lay the pipe in sections so they can get the pipe laid and have it all ready to connect before the pump house is arrive. They can do the concrete pad. So when the pump houses arrive in six months or so, they
can just set them up, make the connections, make the connections to the taps, connect them to the buildings, and and be all inspected and and ready to go. So we should be up and running by June 2027. >> Could you just state your name for the record? Yeah,
>> I'm sorry. Anthony Santella, president Seagate of Highland. Just so you understand a normal pump is you know replacement takes anywhere from you know permit application to you know approval to design everything like that that all that all can be done in less
than 6 months. This is not what this you know what we're doing here is replacing all the underground piping uh that supplies water to the buildings from the pumps. Um all that has been negatively impacted over years. A lot of the piping uh in in town, you know, because the
tidal waters rise and fall below all the buildings, um a lot of the pipes are sitting in that and over time, you know, short shorter periods of time than would normally degrade the these uh these pipes. Um you know, that's that's what we're dealing with. It's everything up
to the buildings, everything underground. >> Thank you, >> Matt. The uh the double check valve will be in the building, too. >> No. So, the the uh backflow preventers are going to be right out by the pump house. >> Um the they're going to be tapped in
right off of the main by A1A um just outside the pump house. And that's all part of the plans that that we've already developed. >> So, there's going to be two two taps. Uh there's one 8 in line that goes to one of the pumps and another 8 inch line that goes to the other pump. And how
long is it estimated uh the to complete once started if in June? >> About a year. >> A year. >> Yes. >> That's not unusual for what we're doing. >> Matt, if um if it was a decision, can can it be screened >> as far as the pump house?
>> Yeah. At some time in the future. >> I I suppose that wouldn't be a problem. I mean, it's we just need to have we just need to have access to it. There's also going to be a small alarm panel in there uh for some of the uh tampers and the flow stuff, but that's and just the pump run and some things like that, but
that's not a big deal. >> Thank you, Commissioner >> Peterson. Thank any questions. I >> appears necessary and a good plan. Yeah. >> Yeah, I agree. I'm in favor. Um, so, um, well, um, does the applicant want to
make an application? Uh, a presentation or do we need a pres does do we need a presentation? Fellow commissioners, do you want to hear uh an or you want to just move to the motion or I guess um let's see uh is there anyone from the public who would
like to comment on this application? If so, uh, raise your hand and no. Okay, seeing no public comments. Um so if there's no more um questions, right, no more questions, then the
public hearing is now closed. So now um is there a motion to approve? >> Yes, a motion to approve the major modification request. >> I second it. >> So that is a motion to approve development order application number PZ26-1.
So, the motion um Commissioner Goldberg, >> yes. >> Commissioner Peters, >> yes. >> Commissioner Chowski, >> yes. >> Vice Mayor Stern, >> yes. >> And Mayor Moore, >> yes. >> Motion carries. >> Thank you very much for >> It was easy. >> Participation sounds critical.
>> Yeah. Thank you very much. >> I I guess I have one question or what's that? No, no, I'm good. Um, I guess one question I kind of have, um, and I I don't know if it's for you guys, but is are we going to see more of these types of, um, issues come up? Is is this
>> occasionally? Not from Seagate, >> right? Not from Seagate. It's going to be perfect. Yeah, you guys are going to be in great shape. I guess I'm just kind of curious um, if we're going to see a lot more of these types of things. Uh we've got some diff other different projects that are going on uh that I
don't know that they're going to need to come to council necessarily for approval, but I'll give you an example. Um Boca Highlands, we're working on putting in what is required for marina protection. Um and we're going to have
to do that in kind of a unique fashion. The marina itself, for example, is uh one is a separate parcel from all the different condominiums and the town houses that that are around that marina. uh which actually worked out pretty good once we discovered that because we can
use uh uh tapping into uh Bremer on the kind of the the north uh west side uh uh Aberdine on the south side and then Dalton on the east side to bring water uh so we have availability there. We
have had some even since we started the fire department here, you know, going back, you know, running calls two years ago, being here three years ago, we have had some minor boat fires in there. Uh, fortunately, nothing's really gotten into, you know, any significant uh issue. We did have a boat that was
docked here just in the last week or two that was taken down to the cove, which did catch on fire, and Broward Sheriff's Office had to handle that, and there was uh 30 firefighters on that call. and my understanding I you know so it turned
into a significant event and that boat was docked in the marina so we're working on that uh Regency we're working with them on a similar situation and then Seagate uh that's already part of this project so I don't know that the you know the the main reason we really
had to be here was because of the build building getting the variances all that kind of thing uh if we were just replacing the underground piping we would have been able to do that without having to come to council Um but you know, so I can't say what projects are going to necessarily require uh coming
back here. Uh we've had to replace numerous fire pumps in town. Um alarm systems are still going through that process. You all probably get some occasional phone calls and stuff. I know the town manager occasionally gets a call. Uh and we're working through all that and I really appreciate everybody's
support and uh working with these guys has been great. I mean uh Tony's been awesome working with ONS. worked with them on other projects when I was at Bokh. So, you know, everybody's kind of familiar with what what's going on. Um, and uh, you know, there's a lot of
things that still need to get done here. We've gotten through many, many of the the, you know, put the buildings in a much better condition working with Joe Brooks and all that stuff to where we are now, but there's some of the major stuff that just takes time. I mean, this this is a process, so we had to get through that.
>> Well, great. I mean, I think uh this is critical work and uh we appreciate you keeping the building safe and identifying these issues and coming up with good solutions that the collaboration is really important um to get all this done. So, thank you very much. >> I appreciate that. Thank you.
>> Thank you. Thank you very much. >> Excellent. Okay. >> Moving on to public comments. Anybody want to make a comment? Seeing none, there are no ordinances.
Moving on to the consent agenda. We have um a few items on the consent agenda, but uh any if if we're ready, we can make a motion to approve the consent agenda. >> I move to approve the agenda agenda.
>> All in favor say I. >> I. >> Motion carries. Moving on to unfinished business. Florida Department of Transportation TripleR project update. >> They will be closing the project the end of the week >> and we will start the sanitary sewer
lining project on A1A Monday. >> Excellent. >> So, F dot is done. >> Excellent. >> Uh if you have any concerns, I'll be more than glad to share that number who they can call. >> Hey, Marshall. Actually the question that's been asked um is when they read about it about the project starting how
much disruption will the project cause cause >> um for sanitary sewer lining uh very minimal uh especially since we got delayed it almost was somewhat of a favorable delay as everyone will be leaving from season so the the the usage
will be down the water usage is down so uh bypass pumping would be the only part of the project that could be tricky especially for the larger condo complex ES um but with less flow shouldn't be a big deal. That's the only thing is is there's like a day to set up bypass so
no one will notice the disruption but we got to move around the lines and stuff. Yep. >> That's great. Moving on to the building department reertification program update. >> Good afternoon. Good afternoon, Katarina Jadawi at the
building department. >> So, our latest update as of April 7th, 2026, the reertified buildings total has remained at 33, but we do have recent pro progress on the concrete restoration portion. We had two buildings last month
under review of their phase one reports, so they have both been reviewed. The Ridge Inc. front building located at 3401 South Ocean Boulevard is now required to proceed with a phase 2. They have requested an extension for when
they must secure a concrete restoration permit and it's been approved with a new deadline of October 11th, 2026. Tuscano West 3720 South Ocean Boulevard phase one reports been reviewed and they have moved to phase two. The concrete
restoration phase with the permit already secured bringing the total number of buildings under permit for restoration to 17. I continue to be pleased to report the reertification program remains to be on track and a positive positive progress.
>> Excellent. >> That's great. >> Thank you. >> Thank you very much. Any questions for Cat? No. Okay. Thank you very much. Great news. >> Item C, continue discussion on the introduction of a proposed resolution adopting procedures for the initiation
and adoption of town ordinances. >> Take no, I'll just jump in again. This is a followup. We we were going to put into a resolution on how uh kind of formalizing or memorializing our process for ordinance initiation. Uh so uh there
were some changes that were suggested or uh desired by the commission. Uh Len made those changes to the resolution and those are reflected in the highlighted portions on page 42 and 43. And as a reminder, this uh process is working its
way through the uh boards and committees for their comments and review. So, I do not believe there's any action required at this point, but it does show the changes uh to the resolution uh for the ordinance process. >> Right. We just wanted to make Oh, I'm
sorry, Mory. Um yeah, I just the council was very concerned. You know, we had to include that language like somehow we miss one of our own procedures. It doesn't invalidate it, but I know the commission's intent is that we vet these things with the public as fully as possible. So, that language was in the
in the resolution and it'll it'll come back for adoption once it goes through all the boards. Thank you, mayor. >> Thank you. Any comments or anything? No. No. >> Okay. Excellent. Thank you. And no action from us, so we can keep moving.
Great. New business. Consideration of the designation of the town's voting delegate and alternate alternates to the Palm Beach County League of Cities for the 2026 2027 year. I'd like to nominate actually I'd like
to nominate Judy as delegate and Don as the uh backup. >> Accept it. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. >> Second it. >> Shall I make a motion to that effect or any any I'm in favor? Any other
discussion? >> All in favor? >> So make a motion. >> If uh >> you can make a motion if there's usually if there's no other nominations, you're good to go. Oh, no. >> All right. Well, thank you very much. Excellent. Thank you very much for doing this. Really appreciate it. >> My pleasure.
>> Yes. Thank you. >> And I look forward to the next uh meeting that we're going to have uh all of us, the whole commission in in August. >> Awesome. >> Thank you for your work with that. >> Thank you. >> Item C, presentation of the strategic
priorities dashboard. So, as Madison gets ready to present this, um, one of the comments that came out when we approved the strategic priorities plan is to have a a more uh usable format or easier to use format on progress for the general public. Uh, that was tasked to
Madison and she came up with a pretty cool dashboard uh that now will be uh updated quarterly. It's on our website uh particularly the manager's website along with uh the strategic priorities plan and the CIP and this will show
progress um as it is made. Um but I thought she could uh give a little presentation on the dashboard make sure everybody's comfortable with it or if want to make any changes. >> All right, Nan, >> just one second. Trying to get a good view for everyone so you can actually
see Okay. Hello everyone. Madison Nunan, town manager's office. Um, I'm here today to just give you a brief overview of this dashboard we created. The intent behind it is just to give residents or anyone who's interested a quick glimpse
into the status of our strategic priorities and some of our capital projects as well. So, just to kind of go over the format um and how everything works, you can see up at the top we have a color scale to designate um the status
of each project. And green indicates in progress, which thankfully a majority of our priorities are moving along and in progress as they should be. And we have red for delayed. Uh yellow no progress to date and blue is complete. So, um,
one difference, um, with the dashboard as opposed to the actual strategic priorities plan is we grouped the priorities in priority number order as opposed to categories because I thought that might be more intuitive for residents who aren't as familiar with
the document to kind of see the flow of our top initiatives. And um I won't go through line item by line item because you know we're aware of the priorities and I'm sure you have that in your packet. You can see up close. But one thing to note um we plan
to update this on a quarterly basis per the fiscal year and now is a great time to put out updates because we just finished our second quarter and um we expect probably in the spring and the summer for there to be um some more updates on projects we have. For
example, we currently have two projects that have gone out to bid and we expect those proposals back end of April. So, lots of things should be moving and we should have more updates um for quarter 3 in the summer. But I'll just do a
quick little scroll through so we can kind of see some of the different items. And you can see here um some items have no progress to date. One item is complete. A couple are delayed. Um the ones that
are delayed are due to um I think both of them due to the Senate Bill 180 state requirements that just required us to put a couple of those priorities on hold. Just scroll through a little bit more and I'll take you down to the bottom
where it dives deeper into the CIP projects. We chose to just select ones that were more significant cost um budgeted over $100,000. So, we pulled those straight from the list. And since none of these projects are complete yet, you'll notice over to
the left side, we only have the budgeted amount. It doesn't yet include the actual or the variance, which as things get complete and we get an accurate cost, we'll add that in and update it as we can. Just scroll through the rest so you can
see. And if anyone has any particular questions, comments, or suggestions, the format, I'd be happy to hear. >> But I love dashboards, uh, Madison, and I think it's great. Um, and I've used
them for many years myself in high-tech. >> My biggest challenge has always been getting the message out that there was a dashboard available. And I think just putting it up there uh, will not get you the audience that we really need. So, I would support the dashboard with as much
outbound marketing as possible. Uh, and the only other thing about the dashboards, there's so much information, which I love. The bigger the print, the better. Uh, with the average age of Highland Beach, >> did I say that properly? Did I say that properly?
>> Given our population, >> it is um, the bigger the print, the better. And, um, the repetition of the messaging is very important. But, thank you. Uh, for getting this done. It's It's excellent. >> Thank you. And I'll take that into consideration. I can easily go in on the
back end um and just enlarge the print and make any adjustments to the document on the fly and get that posted. >> I particularly like this the way you set this out as the dashboard. Um it really was easy to very quickly see where we
are on each and this is something that I had brought up. How do we know where we are on a continuing basis? So now when we have it on the agenda from time to time, we can easily see this and question it. So I thank you. Thank you for the hard work. This is very informative this way.
>> Yeah, definitely did a good job. Thank you. >> Yes, I think it's terrific. I I just like to uh question or address the content of one, not the progress, not the other part of it. And I'm looking at um SP7 ebikes, scooters, and
motorcycles. And since one of my co-commissioners here almost got hit by an ebike on a walk path, I would encourage the priority to move quickly. >> Understood. Um, possibly the town manager could speak to that. And >> good move. Good move. Yeah, I got some
updates with that. Yes. >> I'd be in favor of increasing the priority on that as well. of um uh increasing the priority of ebikes which means reducing the number like making it a closer to number one. I
mean I mean it's still one of the higher >> I think naturally transition that way because a couple of the capital projects that are towards the top will pop off um such as Milani will be completed sanitary sewer lining project will drop off that's going to escalate and the
speed of which that's done. Plus, if you look at Senator Burman's thing, uh they did create the state panel on that. I have a couple quick updates, conversations Len and I are having um on that subject. >> Excellent. >> But I think it's terrific and it helped
me highlight that issue. >> Thank you for the feedback. I >> Yes. Excellent. I I also thought it was excellent. Um very easy to just quickly see what the status is. So, um yeah, I really thank you for that. And I and and another
comment on the content. Um I suggest we remove the gas powered leaf blower since we're not allowed to do it anyway. >> So uh let's get rid of uh strategic priority 23. >> I I would like to add a comment.
>> Okay. Um uh I've been thinking a lot about um the AED as presented when Jason um had made that presentation recently and then from the courier uh Del Rey has um u passed uh either an ordinance or in
some way made that the law of that town u requiring that um I'd like to take it up for discussion at some future time put on the agenda for us to look at >> but is that creating making a Yeah. As to um some towns have taken the
action or a town that we know of are doing it every other floor in a high-rise. Now uh there is a financial impact. There may be other impacts. Um and then what would happen with um individual dwellings? I mean I think we should look at it from a a safety
perspective. Um >> I could uh cue that up for we could start that conversation. >> Okay. and then uh somebody can champion it and we can start moving in that direction based on the conversation amongst the commissioners. >> Okay. >> So put it on the agenda at some future.
>> At the next meeting we'll start the conversation. >> Yeah. I want to particularly thank uh Rich for wonderful article many articles uh this month. Very very informative. Thank you. >> Definitely. >> Yeah. >> It's a team effort for sure.
>> Uh well thank you very much. I think that's it. Thank you. >> Thank you. Excellent. >> Moving on to town commission comments. Commissioner Shidnowski. >> Well, we're going into the second quarter of of 2026 and as I look back at
the season, Marshall, Mayor, I have to congratulate you because I think the team that you've put together here is phenomenal. I mean, the compliance group, Matt, you have to be really proud of what's happening in the certification group. Uh I think uh when they we just don't have to brag about safety. It's
actually happening in Highland Beach and the issues that uh Matt and his team and Glenn and uh the safety issue we all we our first initial statement was the safest one of the safest towns in Florida. Well, that has taken a broader view right now. It isn't just safe
because of uh someone handling a weapon. It's safe because of the way that we're treating our residents. that uh it's not it's very difficult not to be impressed about what has taken place over this last season and uh I think a lot of us are looking really forward to the progress we're going to make in 2026. So
to you mayor to matt to my fellow commissioners and to the team I think we've done a f it's been a fabulous fabulous Leo but thank you. >> Okay I agree totally. Thank you Jason for saying that so beautifully. Uh and and I I agree. I mean, we we take we
ride down, walk down, jog down this town, and it's really so beautiful, so safe, and it's always such a joy uh to be here. It never gets dull. Every every day you have to so appreciate it. >> That's it for me today.
>> Yeah. I just want to kudos on that. The uh the uh we got a great police department. Like you said, we were one of the safest towns and now we're safest town because of the fire department. Matt and his crew and the chief uh uh going around making sure our buildings
are safe. I know we've been getting away for a lot of years. I know it's dollars, but it's better to be safe than sorry. And thank you, Matt, and all the firemen are doing a great job. Uh I see a lot of car carriers going back, so I want to wish everybody, you know, see
you next year. Safe trip and uh and dim those lights for the turtles. And that's it. >> That's great. Thank you. Oh, I I must I must say they mentioned a turtle. Uh I was up in Port St. Lucy visiting a family member and uh as we're
driving, it was a three-lane highway and there was a humongous turtle just kind of all alone just kind of slowly going and everything stopped and a wonderful uh gentleman had three little kids in the in the car jumped out, got this
turtle, brought him over to the grassy area near the lake and was saved. So, that was very beautiful for the turtles. >> Nice. Nothing from me. Uh, town attorney. >> Uh, no, ma'am. >> Okay. Thank you.
>> Town manager. >> Yes. Um, just uh piggybacking off of uh the legislative update, the dashboard, we updated or David updated our budget uh PowerBI. We, as was indicated, we
have to go through some new exercises, post information differently. I believe the way our budget's presented over a 5-year period, uh, satisfies that. So, we're not going to have to recreate, buy a new software package, uh, I think, uh,
the PowerBI that David built off of our BSNA module support, uh, should satisfy that. probably a couple little secondary documents, but you can move through each department, cost centers, revenue sources over five years. It projects it
on a trend, which is all the stuff that uh the legislature uh wanted us to do. Uh the 10% exercise we'll do uh generally and when it comes to 10%, it's everybody. It's everything except for people. So, it's always a safe number, but it's 10% can be uh draconian as it
is a 10% cut. But we'll go through that exercise part of budget a little more early on to show you what it would look like and you could determine if go get it, don't do that if you want to make those changes. Uh but it really is driven by the property tax where 10%
would be a gift. Um, so we'll see where the legislature over the next few months uh gets to, but it appears that reasonleness might be playing out and uh keep us uh protected a little bit on the pathways piece that we were talking
about. Uh Len and I have started a conversation. Uh we'll have to run that through FOT and see where they're at. um uh the prior community I was at, I know it's in a different state, that's why we have to go through this exercise a little bit. We used to call our pathways
that are very similar to this nonmotorized joint use pathways. By definition, you can't have anything with the motor on the pathway that takes care of ebikes, ecooters, electric unicycles,
skateboards for the safety perspective. it gets them off and onto the bike path as it's now available attached to the road for higher speed motorized vehicles. Um, so we just got to see if FDOT's comfortable with that and how we uh
memorialize that probably through some type of updates to chapter 25 in the ordinance which does attach to the our bike paths in there, sidewalks, rideaways. We'll we'll play around with that to see if we can't uh get f to bite
a little bit. And then in so doing without having to set speeds and monitor speeds, we we've define the pathway for its use, which doesn't include motorized vehicles. You could still do a bicycle, but you can't have uh anything under power and motor um on that pathway,
which would then at least get them out onto the street. And then police can have some provisions to enforce it by it's got a motor, you can't be on this uh and go that way. The battery stuff we'll still work with Matt on and get through that piece of it. uh we do uh from that article we have to come up
with an education campaign or at least Matt does um on how we're going to educate the public on you know charging batteries to be careful and so we're going to work through uh those elements >> just just to comment on the pathways as I've mentioned before I would encourage
uh Del Rey and Boke or at least to uh uh to the crossings the Spanish River and so forth to continue having the same policy as a minimum as we do uh as we wouldn't be. But >> so I mean if if if FDOT is comfortable
with the definition change to keep the motorized stuff off of the pathways. I I would believe u uh I could speak more to Bokeh would be they would listen del I can't tell if they would listen to those concepts but that would be good to tie and I know Len had
>> Yeah, we had talked about that yesterday. >> How do we tie the adjacent communities because you can't be non-motorizing your back on and off? users will get confused, but um that could be a good route while the state legislature works through its task force to say if they want to create speeds and stuff. Um but
really anything under a motor that's moving, you really don't want to be on a sidewalk or a non-motorized joint use facility, you really don't want to do that because you're just going too fast with all the driveway cuts and people. It's dangerous for the rider. It's dangerous for the pe other users on the
pathway. So, uh, we're going to go down that path a little bit, see if FOT is comfortable or silent, one of the two, and then we'll have a mechanism by defining it in ordinance and then police can keep people off of them. >> Hey, Marshall, have any of the towns change the grading on the sidewalks with
a small speed bump or any kind of lines? Have any of the towns looked at that at all? >> No, I don't. Um, I've not seen that. like any type of speed bumps we could paint. >> Um seems like our appropriation request is still pushing through for five in a
row. Um if we get that, we are going to be repaving the pathways. So at that point in time, we could do markings on it, you know, >> and do things of that nature. Speed bumps could be a little awkward because it could become a trip hazard. It's a point of conflict. um ADA doesn't like
uh for that kind of use a lot of transition in height then that creates a trip hazard, >> right? >> And we just sovereign immunity just went up. So that means our exposure is higher. Um so we just got to be a little bit careful with that. At brand new they're probably not bad but I could see
over time uh a little bit of separation between the two surfaces or cracking creates a trip hazard. Um, but either way, we uh on the pathway stuff once we get the appropriation request and we'll start scheduling all that along with the embedded crosswalk lighting, which takes
me over to Milani Park. Um, they're moving full steam ahead. Um, they're uh looking to submit their compliance package and permit applications here in the next weekish, week and a half. They'd like to break ground end of May,
early June. Um, so they're they're moving. Um, I've talked with the police chief on some of the safety protocols we'll have to do. Uh, we'll be working shortly with fire because they will have lifeguard. Fire will have to do response. Um, because I
just don't see since they won't sign a formal mutual aid agreement how they're going to show up to rescue people at a park when they won't mutual aid. So, it's going to be an odd setup, but hopefully the our chiefs will talk to the other chiefs and have a little pow-wow and uh get everybody uh on the
same page on rescue there. Um because that still stands. >> Have they come up with the parking fee, but the parking fee is going to be? >> They have not disclosed what that's going to be >> yet. Uh they have formally recognized the reduced parking in the initial phase. Uh so they're committed to that.
It appears um that that walkway boardwalk structure is something to to be seen. It's going to be a very expensive project. So hopefully they budget enough money. Uh speaking with the landscape architect, this acacia wood that they're using for
the whole structure is massively expensive. So um I'm guessing it's a 1012 million project. Um so uh they're moving forward. want to break ground, get it done with. Um the archaeologists are out on site now. Um so that's, you
know, a good sign. Um forgot something else I wanted to get to. Oh, the marine unit that's improved, the permitting that's gotten better. Uh we were we got application in. They've recognized receipt. Um I think we've
given them the type of signage and inwater channel marker seaggrass thing that they wanted. I believe we're in a good space. Um, and they were comfortable with meeting our deadlines of June. So, that project is pushed itself back onto a positive um
trajectory on our dashboard. Uh, so that's going good. >> So, what is the timeline now for that doc? Um well, if we get a permit done by June 1st, we turn it in to the fine commission
uh for their deadlines. They award October Scender >> September. Once we get their approval, then we we're good to go. We have an engineers estimate. We're hoping for a 50% match from the find. So once they say go, we can hit the
streets and bid it and then start. So, it could be a late fall uh winter project for us uh depending on who the selected contractor is and and um you know, we'll see how those things fall into place, but at least we're back
online to secure the grants. Uh we do have an appropriation for that as well. So, we're in a really good spot and without the massive amounts of mitigation that was being initially contemplated, the project costs are more in line uh with what we had had hoped
and planned for. Um, last thing on a special project that's kind of come uh unfortunately, we lost a resident uh over uh the weekend uh to a swimming incident where they couldn't get out of the water in time.
Uh it was relatively rough ocean times, a lot of rip tides out there. We don't know the exact cause. Uh but we did lose one of our cherished residents to a swimming incident. And as part of that, uh speaking with Matt, we're going to do a little bit more of an educational
component at the north south side of town along with the the fire station itself to uh notify residents of the beach conditions. So before you go out, you'll at least have a means to know is it rough seas, is the man of wars going,
is there rip tides, or is it calm? And we'll put those flags north south side of town and we'll start it at the fire station as well along with some signage as to what that means. And we can uh put it out on the app and our website just so I'm sure the gentleman knew what was
happening or what was going on. But again, just to notify folks of those what are the ocean conditions because we don't have a public beach. Um, at least we can uh work off of probably from Spanish River or maybe Atlantic Dunes kind of comboed information to know what
those uh our coastal conditions are before people go out for a swim. If there's rip tides or manowarss or some other type of bacteria or something in the water, we'll be able to let folks know. >> We you're talking about signage as well
on the road or somewhere on >> uh No, we basically put up the marine signs. We'll do we may have a more of a a large uh outreach to let folks know. So when you come in north side of town, you have the American flag up there. Um you know, we'll eventually put up a marine conditions flag. So when you come
into town, you know, if it's rough waters, it's good to go. If there's a purple and a yellow, you know, that combination that you would normally get at at from the lifeguard station when you go in the ocean, we'll put them on north south side of town and then here uh out in front of the fire station and
then notify people through the website and our app just so they know what's going on. Uh it could help. Uh it's easy to do. I think it'll look it'll be kind of a neat >> uh thing that we could do as a town that everybody because everybody had beach access in town. So to be able to educate
the folks on the conditions of the water uh I think would be good for a beach town. >> Do we know if the county is going to uh do anything in that regard? >> They're going to put a lifeguard at Milani Park and they'll probably put up some flags and stuff, but um we'll
coordinate that with them through fire and uh again that's the c that's the partnership with their lifeguards that are part of the county fire department. So, we'll work with them to um again, if somebody was to, god forbid, get hurt at
Milani Park, even though we have some concerns because of the rock and the lifeguards working them that again, we we're going to have to take him to the hospital by the time the county gets here with a rescue. It's going to be too late. So, we're going to they're going to call but we don't have mutual aid. So, do we go? But I I don't play that
game. But, um you know, we will do the appropriate response. So we got to create that partnership so if we have that incident we can get them to the hospital quickly. >> Okay, that's it. Thank you. >> Did you want to talk about this statemandated emergency management training?
>> Oh, I too put all these other notes. I do it. So I sent you all an email. Um I think it was House Bill 180 that we're always talking about are up there. Uh it requires all of us, myself included, we have to go through this training. I sent you the self-paced training. You put
your email uh and you go through the training course yourself. It's uh self-paced. It's not I would say difficult just this lot. There's some jargon, fire jargon, emergency response jargon that if you don't usually hear it, it can trip you up as far as how
quickly you can move through the content because they'll start describing it and then they go to acronyms, right? So, the jargon uh the vice mayor's done it so uh he could speak to it. So, um, if this is our copy, I'll make sure Lenelda, you already give her one. Okay. Um, so I
mean it, how long did it take you? An hour and a half, two hours. >> About two hours. It's interesting, but again, the just the jargon sometimes you're kind of like, you know, they'll give you an acronym and you're like, what does that stand for? So, but we are all required by July 1 uh to get that done. If you need any help signing up or
you want a quiet office, Lenelda will get you all set up. um get you in the commission office and get you on a computer and walk you through it. Uh if you're having trouble, I know some fire guys that are really good at it and they'll come over and help you out a little bit, sand at the door, uh and do
some personalized education as well. So, uh we're here to help, but we have to get it done by July 1st for the state and then every two years thereafter. >> Thank you for all those updates. >> Thank you. Uh, moving on to announcements. Board vacancies. We have
one vacancy for a three-year term on the Code Enforcement Board, and we have one vacancy for an unexpired term ending April 2027 for the Natural Resources Preservation Advisory Board. Upcoming meetings and events. April 9th at 9:30
in the morning, we have our next planning board regular meeting. And on May 5th at 1:30, we have our next town commission meeting. There are no board action reports and with that we can adjourn. Thank you very much everyone. >> Thank you. >> Thank you.
>> What do you think this
