MINUTES WORKSHOP MEETING VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FL AUGUST 29, 2022 6:00 PM VILLAGE HALL CONFERENCE ROOM CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL The meeting was called to order by Mayor Molly Young at 6:10 PM. A roll call was taken by Village Clerk Lori McWilliams. Present were: Mayor Molly Young, Vice Mayor Kyle Stone, Council Member D'Ambra III, Council Member Laurie Brandon and Council Member Aaron Johnson. AGENDA ITEMS 1. Discuss Next Steps to Pursue Undergrounding Electric Utilities Throughout the Village Manager Allen asked Kimley Horn & Associates to prepare a "next step" in the process of undergrounding utilities. Mr. Kevin Shannon of Kimley Horn and Associates addressed Council and provided a feasibility analysis. Right of ways, easements, overall costs, lighting, and the process timeline were included in the information packet to Council. Council asked questions on water risk and unincorporated areas of service. Mr. Shannon indicated there was less risk of water and wind, when utilities were underground. Additionally, unincorporated areas did not have to go into the underground program or the unincorporated areas could be converted to strengthen the entire system. Taking all of the utilities off the wooden poles was desirable and Council looked forward to seeing numbers reflecting this aspect. Mr. Shannon believed bringing electrical wiring up to code was rarely necessary and he would include the data in his next analysis. The Storm Secure program was focused on lateral lines, with main line feeders being hardened over time. Mr. Tom Bradford of 44 Chestnut Trail, asked about a methodology study and questioned the timing of the project. Ms. Marcia Nielson of 94 Beechwood Trail, asked why the entire Village was being considered instead of just the Tequesta Country Club. She did not want to pay for Page 10 of 475 Agenda Item #2. another neighborhood's underground project when she already had underground in her area. Council discussed cutting certain projects in order to continue with the next steps in pursuing the topic of undergrounding electric utilities. The item would be brought back to Council for a vote in October. 2. Discuss Future Purchase and Financing of Park Land Manager Allen mentioned there had previously been brief discussion on purchasing land with bonds, dedicated funds, referendums and other possible options. He displayed a presentation illustrating points such as: financing of park land, funding park land, options on funding, sample ballot, sample resolution, donation policy, and Florida statutes. Council agreed that residents should be involved in the process through a referendum vote. Council Member Johnson, D'Ambra and Vice Mayor Stone were in favor of moving forward as a bond referendum. Marcia Nielson of 94 Beechwood Trail, agreed that a referendum was a good idea, as it could be combined with a Charter referendum. Mr. Thomas Bradford was shocked that Council would consider placing a bond referendum on the ballot next March, due to the many costs going up at the same time. Additionally, he felt that a park in the middle of a commercial district was a mistake. Attorney Davis advised the first reading would have to occur by this October with the second reading in November. The topic would be on the next agenda for vote. 3. Discuss Rules And Policies Regarding Public Participation At Meetings Attorney Davis opined that the current policy was legal and would more than suffice in a court of law. The law considered public meetings to be a "limited public forum" as it was restricted by time and content. He referred to The Village Clerk's study which had compiled a comparative table, illustrating various similar policies across the board, in other municipalities. Attorney Davis stressed that consistency in every circumstance was of utmost importance. Mr. Thomas Bradford of 44 Chestnut Trail, believed it would be beneficial to grant extra time for comments for Boards and Committees. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 7:55 PM.

Mr. Steve Downey, a resident of Tequesta, commented on building codes in other areas of Florida over the past 100 years.
