CITIZEN COMMENTS Carrie Price of the City of Bradenton addressed the Board stating she was on the CRA Advisory Board for Tamiami Trail and the grant proposal for Cottonmouth came before that Board. She as well as the TT CAC board approved it at that time, However, there was discussion regarding violation of the city noise ordinance. She stated she is a neighbor of the business, and they were struggling to find the medium ground between the noise from live music at Cottonmouth and as a neighbor living their lives and running their business as well. Ms. Price stated Mr. Burton had suggested that creating a new grant could help the sound mitigation and she encouraged that. Board Member Barnebey inquired as to how many times per week are there outdoor performances and entertainment. Chair Kocher suggested a motion. 4. CONSENT AGENDA a.

Memorandum of Understanding for Freebee Services between the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Bradenton and the Palmetto Community Redevelopment Agency Board Member Barnebey made a motion to withdraw item 4g from the consent agenda and to approve the remaining items as presented. Board Member Coachman seconded, and the motion was approved unanimously 5-0. Board Member Barnebey asked Mr. Shiplett to come forward with some information. Mr. David Shiplett addressed the Board stating he was the owner of Cottonmouth Soul Kitchen. He explained that during the months of February, March, and April there was music at least four – five times per week. In April, events drop to three times per week. Mother’s Day was his last gospel brunch for the season. They do not start again until October – November. Discussion followed regarding Code Enforcement and the Noise Ordinance, whether there are violations, possible solutions including a grants incentive for mitigating sound. Mr. Shiplett stated that the music was reduced to two-hours and completed by 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and 10:00 p.m. on weekends. He also indicated he has been varying the genre of music. Board Member Barnebey suggested the CRA staff bring something forward to the Board regarding a stand-alone grant for sound mitigation. Mr. Burton stated they could provide a draft for review at June CRA meeting.

Page 3 of 5 Board Member Barnebey made a motion to approve item 4g, Redevelopment Grant Application and CPTED Grant Application for the property located at 1114 12 th Street West with the understanding that there will be some additional grant information brought forward and the Board would encourage everyone to review that information when it becomes available. Board Member Coachman seconded. Board Member Cramer asked if Mr. Shiplett was aware of the Police being called regarding noise. Mr. Shiplett stated he was not aware of that happening. Board Member Moore expressed her concern regarding developing new grants in response to specific issues. Board Member Barnebey stated, per her experience, there have been many complaints about noise from different places and events. Mr. Burton stated, per his experience over the past decades, the noise issues occur consistently. Chair Kocher stated her opinion was that as the downtown area continues to develop, there will be more residences right up on commercial properties, and it was likely germane for the Board to create a grant for the issue. Board Member Cramer stated his opinion was that this is just filling a gap for an issue that was not covered. Discussion followed regarding a rate of return from mitigating noise grants and previous remedies that were used by the Police Department to mitigate noise. Following discussion, the motion to approve item 4g, Redevelopment Grant Application and CPTED Grant Application for the property located at 1114 12 th Street West with the understanding that there will be some additional grant information brought forward and the Board would encourage everyone to review that information when it becomes available passed unanimously 5-0. 5. OTHER DISCUSSION / NEW BUSINESS Grant Reporting Mr. Burton stated, overall grant applications are up 180% for the year, 21 grants in various stages are in the approval process, 8 grants on the agenda alone, and total project investment for approval projects was $727,000 with CRA grants funding 44%. He added 52% of the approved grants were redevelopment grants and there were 3 pending grant applications with a total of $71,000 of proposed investments within the Central CRA and 51% of that coming from various CRA grants. He also added; the Tamiami CRA grants account for 50% of all the grants submitted in 2025, 85% of the grant funding allocated in redevelopment grants are within the Tamiami CRA, and the CRA funding account was for 34% of the total reported investments in Tamiami CRA for $371,000.

Page 4 of 5 In the Downtown CRA, 80% of the funding allocated to the redevelopment and historic grants within the Downtown CRA. In the Central CRA, Mr. Burton stated the CRA was partnering with CDBG on certain grants due to the homeowner having to put up funds which could present a problem in the Central CRA. He added the city has applied for two or three City grants for $10,000 100% funded grants referring to a report indicating where the grants are going, what they are going for, and where more money could be applied. Market Analysis Update Mr. Burton stated the analysis was on the way and the contracts with Mr. Iaboni are done so the information was being collected and should be back to the CRA Board soon. Bradenton Police Department / Security Services Mr. Burton stated CRA staff has met with the Police Department and discussed a solution for the security, letting go of the company currently being used, and the Police Department has come up with a temporary plan where off-duty officers could be used at certain times until the CRA comes up with a new solution which would likely be a request for qualifications or a piggyback with another city that currently uses a company that the CRA wanted to use. Mr. Burton stated he would like to bring that back to the Board before the present company was let go. Board Member Cramer asked a member of the Police Department how they could guarantee a detail with an off-duty staff. The officer explained that if they could not fill the off-duty detail, they would contact the watch commander at night and give them a list of what the security company was doing at that time, then the officers would check those locations between calls for service. Board Member Coachman asked if no one could pick up the detail, the patrol on that shift would have an added responsibility. The officer agreed. Mr. Burton explained the CRA staff, and the Police Department were looking for a new solution as soon as possible and staff would use the Police Department to help vet the new service to make sure they communicate to the service what they are doing, how often, what the reporting would be so it sets a standard that staff and the Police know would be kept. Mr. Burton discussed some carry-overs such as Christmas in Summertime from last year to bring back to the Board at the next meeting. He stated there were projects that the Board has asked for that the CRA was in the process of and that they could pay cash for. There was land that was available for housing that staff would bring to the Board. Mr. Burton discussed some other items in the budget that were not big, for exammple; the Tamiami Trail grant fund, the Green property, a meeting with Applied Sciences going over the very large project that was discussed, the movement of art to protect the existing

Page 5 of 5 infrastructure at the Singing River, bids to renovate the East Bradenton Police Center, formerly a house that the CRA owns, at a cost of $70,000 to $100,000., EPA grants that have been untouched by anybody including seven grants from community wide assessment grants, coalition grants, clean-up grants, and a revolving loan fund. Board Member Moore stated she had a conversation with Wendy Demming of the Parker Bishop Foundation, and they had a grant for doing radio ad spots in Spanish, and they would love to share the Freebee collaboration with the Palmetto CRA. Mr. Burton stated they were working to get both cities together to do a press release on that and were finalizing a date. . 6.

OTHER DISCUSSION / NEW BUSINESS Mr. Jeff Burton informed the Board that, with regard to the Minnie Lee Rogers project, a proposal has been sent to the City Council for the garbage run and it is in process. He added the annual report that was required to be submitted in April was submitted early because of Chris Munyon’s efforts. 12

Page 2 of 4 Regarding the 14 th Street property, Mr. Burton stated the City Council approved the first hearing of a Brownfield designation which helps the developer purchasing the property. He stated CRA staff was contracting with GEO Syntec to remove the kerosene tank and Mr. Scott Rudacille had already taken care of the contract. Mr. Burton proposed a logo change for the CRA using visual aids for the Board’s review and invited feedback on the design. Mr. Burton stated the Board had approved an agreement with Applied Sciences which piggybacks onto a contract that the City had and uses on the City Park. The agreement is for the CRA to provide work assignments to the consultant. The CRA budgeted funds for Applied Sciences to begin work on community engagement with all three CRAs regarding a large streetscaping and LID project throughout to connect LECOM to downtown, make improvements throughout the Tamiami CRA including the Village of the Arts and the Singletary neighborhood, and to connect east to west on MLK. He added that State Revolving loan funds would be used because it would have a storm water component to it. Mr. Burton reminded the Board that April 26 th was the date for the Desoto parade, and the CRA staff would set up a ribbon cutting for the Freebee joint CRA, joint City agreement to be done on the city line at the top of the Green Bridge prior to the parade. He added staff would ask the Bradenton Police Department to help organize the Bradenton City Council members to be there for pictures with a Palmetto and a Bradenton Freebee, along with the Palmetto City Council. They would also invite the County Commission. Mr. Burton stated that he provided the Board members with copies of an email from Brian Cooke at Applied Sciences regarding Love Park indicating that he met with SWFWTMD, worked on components and layouts, and was at approximately 60% plan. Mr. Burton stated once it is at 80%, they would be going to bid. Mr. Burton stated, regarding the affordable house the CRA is discussing building, the CRA staff was putting together a pro forma. He explained that he had a discussion with a group called Self, which is a non-profit that is funded by the EPA, and they finance solar energy for affordable housing. He added that staff met with the City CDBG regarding partnering with them on houses in the future, and they felt like because of the numbers they could do that, but there will be further discussions in the future. Chair Kocher suggested having a Freebee vehicle drive through during the Desoto parage for exposure and branding. Mr. Burton also stated that the CRA has had a record number of grants applied for which are proceeding through the proper boards, including one for rehabbing homes that had code enforcement violations where the CRA provided the grant working with Habitat for Humanity. He added that it was a very productive grant to address code violations and reduce blight. Mr. Burton would like to provide that in Central, and he would locate the documentation from Palmetto to bring before the CRA Board for review. 13

Page 3 of 4 Board Member Moore asked about LED lighting and water treatment in the street scaping. Mr. Burton explained that includes bioswales, surface and filtration basins, storm pavers that have a component under them that when the rainwater falls, it runs right into parking spaces, sidewalks, things like that. It is called low-impact development and does qualify for state-revolving loan funds. He further explained the MPO and their 5-year plan that the CRA Board would see includes funding for a streetscape on 9 th coming into downtown. In discussions, they mentioned that the County may be interested in carrying that south, but they had budgeted in their draft for over $14 million for pure traffic management and multi- mobility. Mr. Burton further explained the funding of the MPO in the district and the boundary areas. Chair Kocher asked if the annual report had been posted on the website. Mr. Burton stated it was. Chair Kocher also asked about the changing of the CRA logo and rebranding stating she would like more color. She asked for the Board’s opinion. Board Member Coachman stated the logo presented was clearer and says what the CRA is as opposed to the present logo. She strongly suggested changing the logo from the present version. She added the proposed logo is colorful, but not serious. Mr. Burton stated he could draft a short paragraph to be used to explain everything about CRAs, and added not only could they say it, but they could also show it. Discussion followed regarding the logo design. Board Member Barnebey stated she does not feel there are enough lights on the trees in Downtown Bradenton and, they are also too small. She would like to see bigger and brighter bulbs and extended into other areas of downtown. Board Member Barnebey added she feels it should be a CRA project and she would like to see possible alternatives for newer lighting, colored lighting for holidays, seasons, etc. She added the current lighting was pathetic at best and upgrading it would be inexpensive and provide a sense of place. Mr. Burton stated they would look at the CRA plan for public lighting and incorporate it into a grant for lighting on personal property in order to bring something back to the Board for review. Discussion followed regarding tree lighting in the urban area. Mr. Burton stated he had a meeting the previous week with Ryan Matthews, the lobbyist for the Florida Redevelopment Association and the lobbyist for the Florida League of Cities to discuss current bills in the House and Senate. He added there is a bill that shuts down CRAs for the most part, any new projects, etc. and it passed through the House. The FRA does not even send lobbyists to the House any longer to discuss it. In the Senate, it had three sub-committees and had passed through two. In each one, the sponsor of the bill was told to make major changes to the bill. He added that the last subcommittee was Rules and was chaired by Kathleen Passidomo, the President of the Senate. She stated, “You will come see me about this bill and I will make the changes necessary.” Mr. Burton stated the CRA staff was hopeful that they could bring back some good news of an amended bill. 14
