NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK PROCLAMATION

For nearly 90 million Americans, boating continues to be a popular recreational activity. From coast to coast, and everywhere in between, people are taking to the water and enjoying time together boating, sailing, paddling, and fishing. During National Safe Boating Week, we want to bring special attention to this pastime and remind recreational boaters of a few tips to ensure that they and their loved ones are safe and responsible while exploring our nation’s waterways. Proper planning for a day of boating begins even before leaving the home. Getting a free vessel safety check and taking a safe boating course at the beginning of the boating season, filing a float plan with a trusted family member or friend, and checking the weather before boating are key steps to an enjoyable time boating. Every boater should wear a U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket at all times while boating. Drowning remains the number one cause of death for recreational boaters each year, and the majority of drowning victims in recreational boating accidents are not wearing a life jacket. Safe and responsible boating includes never operating a boat while under the influence of drugs or alcohol and knowing basic navigation rules. Year-round, people continue to enjoy all that our nation’s waterways have to offer through the joy of boating. National Safe Boating Week is observed to bring attention to important life-saving tips for recreational boaters so that they can have a safer, more fun experience out on the water.

WHEREAS, 613 people died in 2019 in boating-related accidents in the U.S.; approximately three-fourths of these are fatalities caused by drowning; and WHEREAS, the vast majority of these accidents are caused by human error or poor judgment and not by the boat, equipment, or environmental factors; and WHEREAS, a significant number of boaters who lose their lives by drowning each year would be alive today had they worn their life jackets; and WHEREAS, today’s life jackets are more comfortable, lightweight, and more wearable than styles of years past. THEREFORE, I, Eugene Fultz, do hereby support the goals of the North American Safe Boating Campaign and proclaim May 22 – 28, 2021 as

NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK

and the start of the year-round effort to promote safe boating. I urge all those who boat to “Wear It!” and practice safe boating habits. IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Official Seal of the City of Lake Wales, Polk County, Florida, to be affixed this 18th day of May 2021.

COMMUNITY PLANNING TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANT FUNDING REQUEST

Representatives of the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity,

May 18, 2021

I am writing on behalf of the City of Lake Wales to request a Community Planning Technical Assistance Grant for Fiscal Year 2021-2022. This grant will strengthen the ongoing implementation of the City's award-winning plan Lake Wales Connected, our strategy to revitalize the Downtown and Northwest Neighborhood areas. The Plan revives the vision of the famous Olmsted Brothers for Lake Wales, providing upgraded public spaces and walkable, tree-lined streets to attract new residents, customers, and businesses back to the historic center of the city.

Cultivating investment in our historic core is a significant City priority; the project area is within a Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) district and has been designated as an Opportunity Zone. The City plans to utilize this grant to further encourage new development by drafting and implementing updates to zoning requirements for the Northwest Neighborhood area. The changes will implement Plan recommendations, remove potential impediments, and shape future development according to the community vision . The zoning updates will include form-based design standards for the Lincoln Avenue mixed-use center as well as changes to promote infill of vacant or underutilized parcels. Th is could include permitting a greater mix of uses and va riety of housing types, reducing or eliminating parking requirements, and implementing other standards that support sustainable economic development and a more resilient community. The proposed zoning updates will be reviewed and refined with community stakeholder input.

The City of Lake Wales is requesting $50,000 to fund this work, which will cover the services of a planning consultant working with our Development Services Department.

Additional information that summarizes the relevant ideas and goals of the Lake Wales Connected plan that this grant will help us realize is provided on the pages that follow.

Sincerely yours,

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: LAKE WALES CONNECTED

Lake Wales Connected is the City’s revitalization plan for the core of Lake Wales, covering Downtown and the adjacent Northwest Neighborhood. Many cities and towns have experienced a shift of vitality from their historic cores, leaving behind areas in need of investment, infill and activity to become more complete. The essential goal of the Lake Wales Connected plan is to repopulate the core area neighborhoods, re-inhabit vacant buildings, re-build on vacant lots, and fill streets with activity, making the core of the city once again a focal community gathering place and an essential part of daily life.

A century ago, the Olmsted Brothers and William Lyman Phillips had high aspirations for what the new settlements of Florida should become: living, growing, vital, beautiful, motivating works of art. Their vision for the core of Lake Wales was boldly green: a city as a garden with its gleaming downtown on a hill. The Lake Wales Connected plan resumes work to realize the Olmsted/Phillips vision, building upon the area’s natural and built assets, historic significance and established community through public realm investments that include upgraded, walkable and bikeable street connections, new gateways and community gathering places, and planting more street trees. Investments in the public realm will encourage private investors to restore historic buildings, build new mixed-use buildings, and construct a variety of new housing types.

The Lake Wales Connected planning process was designed to seek input from many perspectives and engage public and private stakeholders in defining a vision for the future. Business and property owners, City staff, and interested residents were among the many participants that contributed their input and ideas. The centerpiece of public involvement was an open “Designing in Public” charrette week in April 2019. The resulting vision describes five big ideas to guide future improvements: Design, Activate, Connect, Populate, and Empower (see following page).

The Lake Wales Connected Implementation Action Plan describes public improvements and recommended City policies and programs that can implement the Big Ideas. The City is actively working to implement the vision; a brief summary of recent accomplishments and actions currently underway or completed is included at right. Additionally, the City’s website includes a dashboard that reports the status of near-term and mid-term action steps: https://www.lakewalesfl.gov/866/Lake-Wales-Connected-Plan.

The City is requesting a Community Planning Technical Assistance Grant from the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity to supplement these ongoing efforts and assist with Implementation Action #15 for the Northwest Neighborhood (Draft and adopt changes to zoning to implement plan recommendations; update zoning requirements to permit infill buildings according to the plan vision; and streamline development approval process to reduce uncertainty).

SCOPE OF WORK

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed Scope of Work will provide zoning update recommendations for the Northwest Neighborhood of Lake Wales, to implement the goals and vision of the Lake Wales Connected Plan. Deliverables will include design standards for the Lincoln Avenue mixed-use area, and updates to districts throughout the Lake Wales Connected study area to modernize the land development regulations and implement the community vision. These zoning updates can help realize the goals of Lake Wales Connected by encouraging mixed-use infill on Lincoln Avenue, incentivizing infill of a variety of housing types, and adjusting standards that may be holding back investment such as minimum lot size or parking requirements, and permitting accessory dwellings and a variety of residential unit types. The proposed zoning updates will be reviewed and refined with community input; stakeholder meetings may be held virtually or in-person. The City’s Development Services Department will contract with a planning consultant to execute this Scope of Work.

GRANTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES: Grantee shall perform the Tasks and Deliverables described below, to achieve the above goals and intent.

DELIVERABLE 1: Create draft Design Standards (building and site development) for the Lincoln Avenue mixed-use center.

The Consultant will draft Design Standards to address the built form of future development, shaping development in the Lincoln Avenue mixed-use neighborhood center according to the community vision. Regulated elements may include building height and massing; façade composition including building transparency (storefronts, doors and windows) facing public streets and spaces; building appurtenances (awnings/balconies/stoops, etc.); parking requirements; and architectural elements (materials and configurations).

A strategy to incorporate the proposed Design Standards into the existing zoning framework will be provided, and executed as part of Deliverable 2. For example, this may include creating a new district where the new design standards will apply (similar to the D-MU district standards that have been drafted for Downtown); or adding new design standards to the code that apply to existing Northwest Neighborhood mixed-use areas. A map will be produced showing the extent of area where the Design Standards should apply.

The Consultant will schedule review meetings with the City via video conference to strategize on the table of contents and approach for the design standards, and to review work underway. This scope of work covers at least three review meetings with City staff to review the draft Design Standards and zoning updates described in Deliverable 2.

One preliminary draft and one final draft (based on a consolidated set of comments) of the Design Standards is included.

DELIVERABLE 2: Analyze the existing Zoning Regulations that apply to the Northwest Neighborhood to determine changes that are needed to implement the community vision.

To supplement the Design Standards, the Consultant will analyze the existing zoning districts in the Northwest Neighborhood and identify needed changes to implement the community vision described in Lake Wales Connected. Findings will be summarized in a Zoning Analysis Memo that identifies recommended changes to implement the vision.

The Consultant will then provide recommended text for strategic updates/revisions to the existing zoning regulations to address key issues identified in Lake Wales Connected and the Zoning Analysis Memo. For example, this may include changes to permitted uses, dimensional/area standards, parking standards and

landscaping requirements; depending on the results of the zoning analysis, the edits may be in the form of a new zoning district for the Northwest Neighborhood. This is not intended to be a complete rewriting of the existing code, but rather strategic edits to remove impediments to the community vision.

One first draft and one updated draft (based on a consolidated set of comments provided by City) of the Analysis Memo and Strategic Updates/Revisions is included.

DELIVERABLE 3: Review Draft Recommendations with Community Stakeholders.

The Consultant will review the draft recommendations with community stakeholders. This scope of work includes two in-person presentations of proposed design standards and zoning updates (which may be at a community meeting, or to an invited group of stakeholders); and up to three additional video conference meetings with stakeholders identified by City staff. Feedback forms or interactive polling will be used to gather feedback at community meetings. The purpose of these sessions is to explain the proposed updates and gather feedback about needed revisions.

Outreach to stakeholders to participate in meetings will be done by City staff; the Consultant will assist the City by identifying stakeholder groups and designing meeting announcements.

From Lake Wales Connected: Reimagine 1st Street1st Street is a critical north-south street that connects Lake Wales’ historic Downtown with the Northwest Neighborhood. The current condition provides an inadequate connection for pedestrians and cyclists, and leads to the disconnected nature of Lake Wales’ core. A proposed redesign narrows the travel lanes while retaining parking on the east side, adds street trees, and includes a raised cycle track. These improvements not only provide a better, safer link they also set the stage for private sector investment on adjacent lots, that can be shaped and encouraged by the regulatory updates proposed in this Scope of Work.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE: All streets and public ways such as alleys within the incorporated limits of the City of Lake Wales, Florida, shall be named in the interest of the health, safety and welfare of all City residents. This policy has been established in an effort to enhance the understanding of the process for renaming existing named streets within the City of Lake Wales. The City Manager’s Office is designated as the department responsible for the approval of all street renaming requests. PROCESS FOR RENAMING EXISTING NAMED STREET An application for renaming an existing named street can be initiated at the request of any property owner(s) whose property abuts the existing named street or by the City Commission.

• An application fee in the amount of $250 shall apply. • Prior to an application being forwarded to the City Commission for review and consideration it

shall be submitted to the Public Services Department and deemed sufficient. • A completed application shall include the applicant’s contact information, location of the street to

be renamed, proposed street name(s), request for street signage, and a notarized signature of the applicant, and the applicable fee.

There is no specific content or form that is required for this narrative except that it should include information on the historical, cultural, political, or economic aspects of the proposed street name as they relate to the City of Lake Wales. The narrative shall be used by the City Commission in determining whether or not the application should be approved.

Requests for renaming existing named streets must be approved by passage of a resolution by the City Commission after conducting a properly advertised public hearing. The resolution must be noticed once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City, at least 30 days before the review and adoption. The notice shall state the date, time, and place of the public hearing; the title or titles of the proposed resolution; and the place or places within the City where the proposed resolution may be inspected by the public. The notice shall also advise that interested parties may appear at the meeting and be heard with respect to the proposed resolution. NAME SELECTION The Public Services Department shall review all proposed street names with the Polk County E-9-1-1 Administration Office to ensure that no proposed name is a duplicate of another existing street name or sounds too similar to an existing street name within the City of Lake Wales, or areas of Polk County as required by the E-911 system. In all cases, potential street names can be verified before submitting the necessary applications. The following criteria shall be followed when naming an existing or proposed street: 1. Duplicate names shall not be allowed. Use of a different roadway type does not change the fact that

the name is a duplication. The exception to this policy will be using the same name but different roadway types within the boundaries of a platted subdivision.

of 2

2. Street names shall contain no more than twenty-one characters, not including roadway type. 3. No punctuation or special characters shall be used in roadway names. 4. Street names shall not consist of more than two words, not to include pre-directional or suffix

indicators. Special exceptions may be approved by the City Commission for historically significant names.

5. The street name shall not contain any word that is a type of direction. 6. Street abbreviations and designation definitions shall meet the criteria established by the Polk County

E-9-1-1 Administration Office. 7. If a street is to be renamed in honor of an individual, that individual must have been deceased three

years. This requirement does not apply to street being renamed for a family using just the last name.

8. The proposed name cannot segment a street, when the segmentation is not created by a natural landform or waterway.

9. No slang, racist, derogatory names, or names that are deemed offensive will be accepted on any application.

10 No street name can duplicate a name of an existing subdivision, unless the street is within that subdivision.

COORDINATION WITH OTHER AGENCIES It is important that all applications, whether for existing street name changes be coordinated through all government agencies/departments or private providers that could be affected. At a minimum this shall include the U.S Postal Service, Polk County E-9-1-1 Administration Office, other City Departments, utility providers and any other agency that may be affected on a case by case basis. All agencies or departments shall be given the opportunity to provide input, which shall be used by the City Commission to assist in making its decision on the application.

Policy Adopted by the City Commission:

MEMORANDUM DATE: May 18, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners VIA: James Slaton, City Manager FROM: Mark J. Bennett, Development Services Director Autumn Cochella, Development Services Manager SUBJECT: Preliminary Subdivision Plat Approval – Buck Moore Development PID: 28-30-06-000000-013010 & 013020 SYNOPSIS: Traditions Engineering, agent for Sunset Development Group of Polk, is requesting approval of a 46-lot single-family residential subdivision on 25.7 acres of land east of Buck Moore Road and south of Bel Ombre Circle. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval at a regular meeting on April 27, 2021. BACKGROUND The 25.7-acre vacant property is located on the east side of Buck Moore Road, and south of Bel Ombre Circle. The site abuts two churches to the west, both still located within unincorporated Polk County. The proposed 46-lot single-family subdivision is designed as a standard subdivision meeting all land development requirements applicable to the R-1C zoning district.

Maximum density on the site is calculated at 12 units per gross acre under the updated Comprehensive Plan; however, a density of only 1.79 dwelling units per acre is proposed. Lot sizes range from just over 10,000 square feet, to over 18,000 square feet, exceeding the 8,000-square-foot minimum lot size for the zoning district.

Roadways & Access: Access to the site is shown from Buck Moore Road, sharing a driveway with the Lake Wales Alliance Church. The entrance road will be improved to local road standards, including the construction of a new sidewalk and an entrance feature. An access permit for Buck Moore Road must be obtained from Polk County, as Buck Moore is a County Road. A stub-out will be required for future cross-connectivity to the site to the south, a planned development referred to as “80 Acres”. Per a County Minor Traffic Study, there is sufficient capacity on Buck Moore Road for this development. Buck Moore Road is classified as an Urban Collector per the Polk Transportation Planning Organization 2020 Roadway Network Database. Current, this roadway has an estimated Annual Average Daily Traffic of 9,200 trips, with 406 peak hour trips northbound and 422 southbound. The level of service standard of this roadway is LOS “C” with a maximum of 792 peak hour trips, and currently operates at LOS “B”. Projected daily trips: 359 Projected peak hour trips: 46 Landscaping and Buffering: A landscape plan will be required during the Site Development review process, which must demonstrate compliance with the City’s Landscape Code.

The development is buffered by vacant land to the east and to the south, as well as non-residential uses to the west and more vacant land. Lots 21 through 24 along the eastern boundary are buffered by retention, which will be landscaped according to Section 23-307.4.

Residential tree density requirements will be enforced at building permit issuance, pursuant to section 23-307.2.a.3: Lots 10,000sf or greater require a minimum or three, two-inch caliper shade trees, minimum of eight feet at planting.

Recreation: A .31-acre neighborhood park is proposed towards the north end of the development, which is in excess of the minimum requirement of 7,514 square feet based on 46 units. A mini-park is not proposed, Waiver of Strict Compliance to eliminate the mini-park requirement was approved by the Planning Board.

Staff is in support of this waiver, finding the following: 1. The neighborhood park proposed is nearly double the minimum size

required. 2. Staff considers a 46-lot subdivision small-scale in nature; the mini-park

requirement would be minimal. 3. The development proposes lot sizes, which exceed the minimum

requirement by at least 2,000 square feet; therefore, the lack of mini-park space is compensated for.

OTHER OPTIONS Decline to approve the preliminary subdivision plat. FISCAL IMPACT Approval of the preliminary plat would enable the development of this property and the potential increase in property value. Specifically, estimating an average of $200,000 in taxable value per unit, it could potentially result in $9.2 million in taxable value, and generate $62,468 in ad valorem taxes.

MEMORANDUM DATE: May 18, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners VIA: James Slaton, City Manager FROM: Mark J. Bennett, Development Services Director Autumn Cochella, Development Services Manager SUBJECT: Ordinance 2021-09 Zoning Amendment – Chapter 23 Zoning, Land Use

and Development – 1st Reading - PUBLIC HEARING SYNOPSIS: Ordinance 2021-09 proposes amendments to areas of the Land Development Regulations (LDRs) (Chapter 23, Lake Wales Code of Ordinances). These amendments are necessary to address the growth and needs of the community, better align with current best practices, and facilitate a more business-friendly approach to development in Lake Wales. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval at first reading, and adoption after second reading of Ordinance 2021-09 following a public hearing. The Planning and Zoning Board made a recommendation of approval at a regular April 27, 2021 meeting. BACKGROUND Amendments are proposed to the following sections:

a. Sec. 23-223 – Land Subdivision b. Table 23-421 Permitted Uses

Sec. 23-223 – Land Subdivision During a recent review of the City’s LDRs, it was discovered that there are no provisions in place to guarantee facilities and other improvements that are dedicated to the public. Typically, most LDRs have provisions that require a maintenance bond, surety, or some form of guarantee that any recently dedicated public improvements will not immediately fall into disrepair. A similar example of this concept is obtaining a warranty when purchasing a new car.

To address this issue, the following language is proposed: Sec. 223-4 Final subdivision plat and supplementary information. d. Review and Certification Process. Each final-subdivision plat shall be subjected to a standard review and certification process as follows.

4. Maintenance Bonds.

a. Public Improvements - To ensure that any improvements dedicated to the City (such as, but not limited to, streets, drainage, water, reclaimed water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer facilities, street lights and traffic signs) do not contain construction, design, or material defects or failures, a letter of credit or other surety shall be required. The surety shall be 10% of the cost of the improvements, based on the engineer’s cost estimate approved by the City. Said surety shall be reviewed and approved by the City prior to final plat. The surety shall be held by the City for a minimum of 24 months. The City reserves the right to hold the surety for a maximum of 60 months if special conditions encountered during design or construction make normal inspection and testing insufficient to assure structural integrity. Examples of special conditions include the use of marginal soils in construction, application of geotextile material precludes the removal of unsuitable material, and construction practices resulting from experimental design concepts.

b. Project Landscaping – A letter of credit or other surety shall be required in order to ensure that landscape improvements in project common areas remain viable and are not diseased, damaged or dying. The surety shall be for 120% of the total landscaping cost, based on the review and approval of the project costs by the Administrative Official. Said surety shall be reviewed and approved by the City prior to final plat. The surety shall be held by the City for a minimum of 24 months. The City reserves the right to hold the surety for a maximum of 60 months to ensure that the project common area landscaping remains healthy and viable.

Table 23-421 Permitted Uses

Amend the Permitted Use Chart to allow eat-in and take-out restaurants in the Limited Commercial Industrial (LCI) District. If approved, this request will spur economic development opportunities by allowing for possible restaurant locations. Also proposed is to allow the following Industrial Uses as permitted by Special Exception Use Permit in the C-3 Highway Commercial zoning district: Assembly & Fabrication, Manufacturing-Light, and Warehouse/Distribution.

and Public Hearing SYNOPSIS: Ordinance D2021-05 proposes a comprehensive Future Land Use Map Amendment to reassign certain residential Future Land Use designations based on the recently adopted EAR-Based Comprehensive Plan Amendments. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval at first reading, and adoption after second reading of Ordinance D2021-05 following a public hearing. The Planning and Zoning Board made a recommendation of approval at a regular April 27, 2021 meeting. BACKGROUND At a March 2, 2021 Commission Meeting, the City adopted the 2040 City of Lake Wales Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan). The Comp Plan includes elements, such as Future Land Use, which guide the future development of the City and present a future vision. Included in the Comp Plan amendments was an adjustment in our maximum residential densities per land use category:

Mixed-Use development in the RAC Regional Activity Center increase from 6 units per acre, to 12.

Multi-family and mixed commercial/residential use of in the DD Downtown District increased from 12 units per acre, to 25.

Residential uses in the NAC Neighborhood Activity Center increased from 6 units per acre, to 12.

Residential uses in the RO Residential Office district increased from 6 units per acre, to 12.

LDR Low Density Residential increased from 3 units per acre, to 5. MDR Medium Density Residential increased from 6 units per acre, to 12 HDR High Density Residential increased from 12 units per acre, to 25.

These policy changes were suggested by staff to restore the original residential densities that were included in the City’s original 1991 Comprehensive Plan. Additionally, these density increases will have the effect of reducing urban sprawl by promoting high-density development in urban areas. In order to ensure smart growth, staff has adjusted some land use categories assigned to properties in order to better reflect the densities which are most appropriate for the site – an exercise Staff refers to as “right-sizing the map”.

Resolution 2021-16, Adopting a Revised Transition Plan for Removing Obstacles to Accessibility of Public Buildings.

Approval of Resolution 2021-16 will adopt a revised Transition Plan for Removing Obstacles to Accessibility of Public Buildings.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Commission approve Resolution 2021-16 adopting a Revised Transition Plan for Removing Obstacles to Accessibility of Public Buildings.

BACKGROUND

On April 16, 2002, the City Commission approved withdrawal from participation in Polk County’s CDBG program in order to make individual application in the Small Cities CDBG program, and on December 19, 2002 the City submitted its application. As part of the pre-application process, it was necessary for the City to adopt certain policies and procedures to enhance the success of our application.

One of the policies adopted with Resolution 2002-18 on November 5, 2002 was the City of Lake Wales Section 504 Compliance Policy, Evaluation Plan, Transition Plan, and Grievance/Complaint Procedures for Community Development Block Grant Programs and Projects which relates to the City’s commitment to ensure access to public buildings by all members of the community. Also in November 2002, the City Commission appointed five community volunteers with physical impairments to serve on a review committee for the City’s Section 504 Handicapped Accessibility Transition Plan.

An evaluation of city-owned facilities was performed by our Fire Marshal and Building Inspector using the Florida Accessibility Code for Building Construction (1997 edition). During this evaluation, obstacles to access by individuals with physical impairments were identified. A list of these obstacles was compiled for each city-owned facility and forwarded to the committee for review. The committee members individually indicated their priorities for taking corrective actions necessary to remove these obstacles. The priorities of the individual members were averaged to establish the priorities of the committee as a whole.

Taking into consideration the priorities of the committee, a transition plan was developed to schedule the budgeting of financial resources necessary to remove the accessibility obstacles identified over the period FY02'03 through FY05'06.

Many of the accessibility obstacles were eliminated in accordance with the adopted transition plan. Major repairs to those facilities that suffered damage during the hurricane season of 2004 provided for the correction of many of the accessibility problems listed in the 2002 plan.

In order to comply with the terms of acceptance of the CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Grant for the Minnesota-Grove Avenue area, the City Commission with Resolution 2006-05 adopted a revised version of the plan that included many of the corrections made after the hurricanes.

In order to comply with the terms of acceptance of the CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Grant for the C Street Sewer project, the City Commission with Resolution 2010-17 adopted a revised version of the plan that included many of the corrections made since the last update.

This Transition Plan needs to be updated again as a requirement of the current CDBG Commercial Revitalization Grant. Staff has reviewed the list as well as the facilities themselves and has updated it for 2021. The list includes a schedule of when the remaining items will most likely be addressed. Resolution 2021-16 adopts this new list.

OTHER OPTIONS

None.

FISCAL IMPACT

Most of the work scheduled for the current fiscal year consists of providing handicapped parking spaces that comply with the Florida Accessibility Code, moving fixtures in restrooms, improving safety of ramps, etc. This work is not costly and can be completed within the budget allocated for M&R Buildings, although budgets for individual departments may require reallocation with a budget amendment. The cost of work scheduled for FY21'22 is not known at this time.
