Road, Loxahatchee Groves, FL 33470 Tuesday, May 06, 2025 CALL TO ORDER Mayor Kane called the meeting to order at 6:00 PM PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE FOLLOWED BY A MOMENT OF SILENCE Mayor Kane led the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a moment of silence. ROLL CALL Mayor Anita Kane, Vice Mayor Margaret Herzog, Councilmember Paul Coleman, Councilmember Lisa El-Ramey, Councilmember Phillis Maniglia, Town Manager Francine Ramaglia, Town Attorney Glen Torcivia, Town Clerk Valerie Oakes, Project Coordinator Jeff Kurtz, Public Works Director Richard Gallant, Public Works Superintendent Craig Lower, and Planner Jim Fleischman and were present. OPEN DISCUSSION Mayor Kane stated that due to the number of public comment cards received and the limited 30 minutes allotted for public comment, individual remarks would be limited to three minutes each. Tracy Raflowitz addressed Council as a resident of Loxahatchee Groves and a member of the Finance Advisory and Audit Committee (FAAC); advised Council on financial matters and noted that during the FY 2024–2025 budget review, the committee had expressed concerns about reducing expenses. She stated that since then, she has identified what she believes to be excessive spending in several areas, including attorney and consultant fees, land planning, engineering services, and credit card expenditures. She referenced examples such as a payment discrepancy involving a land planner invoice, significant charges for hotels, restaurants, and grocery purchases categorized as office supplies, including a Publix charge in December, and questioned the lack of clear policies for travel, education, and training expenses. The inconsistencies in statements made by Mr. DiLena, including the timeline of his work with the Town and entering the invoices. She stated that these matters warranted further review and called for greater accountability and the establishment of clear spending policies.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Town Council Community Discussion Meeting Minutes May 06, 2025 2 Jo Siciliano stated that the community should be working together as neighbors rather than attacking one another. She mentioned her understanding that the $1,000 check in question had been caught by staff and was not an overpayment of $10,000, as had been suggested and further emphasized the importance of maintaining decorum during meetings and expressed concern over the way presenters and residents had been treated, citing instances where they were not given sufficient opportunity to speak. Ms. Siciliano urged Council and residents to remain calm, respectful, and focused on preserving the character of Loxahatchee Groves as a green enclave free from excessive commercialization. Cynthia Screnci stated that she and her husband purchased the property in good faith and noted that they have never encountered the level of dishonest or fraudulent conduct elsewhere that they believe exists in the Town of Loxahatchee Groves. She explained that the property contains an easement providing a neighbor to the north with access. In January, they installed a safety gate after one of the horses escaped. The neighbor subsequently sued them over the gate, and two Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the property based on information provided by the Town Manager. Ms. Screnci noted that a letter from Captain Craig Turner indicated she had no legal right to install the gate and was directed to remove it and that she later met with Town staff, who confirmed to her that the property was owned by her and that no such letter existed, leaving her concerned about how law enforcement had been directed to her property. She expressed the need for Town staff and Councilmembers to adhere to ethical standards. She criticized the conduct of some Councilmembers and urged the Town’s administration and elected officials to improve transparency, accountability, and professionalism. Robert Austin referenced a previous meeting where Mayor Kane mentioned repairing the Town’s canal system at a cost of approximately $100 million. He suggested that, instead, the Town study the feasibility of converting the canals into seasonal drainage ditches, which could reduce costs and eliminate taxpayer burdens for a system that benefits only a small number of residents. He noted that property owners could draw water from wells or ponds using pumps and emphasized that most taxpayers no longer benefit from canals originally designed to serve cattle farms and citrus groves. Mr. Austin stated that converting the canals into drainage ditches that could be mowed would reduce flooding risks and potential accidents, noting that the canals are not widely relied upon by fire departments, with only a few locations providing suitable water depth. He also expressed the ongoing code enforcement issues, citing examples of unpermitted structures, Recreational Vehicles (RV) violations, and flooding concerns, which he said reflect poorly on the Town’s ability to enforce its ordinances. Mr. Austin urged the Town to take stronger action against repeat offenders, noting that residents are increasingly frustrated and that Loxahatchee Groves risks are being laughed at by neighboring communities if enforcement does not improve. Joe Stephens stated for the record that his property at 1102 Hyde Park had no liens or code violations as of May 6, 2025. He continued about the longstanding violations at 1032 Hyde Park and recounted attempts by his wife to contact the Town Manager, noting that the eventual response came from Mr. Jeff Kurtz, who identified himself as an attorney representing the Town. Mr. Stephens raised additional concerns regarding code enforcement at 1032 Hyde Park, including unpermitted residences, manure disposal, flooding issues, and the presence of hogs and pigs. He questioned whether inspections were being carried out in compliance with the magistrate’s ruling. Mr. Stephens commented on the treatment of the Town Attorney during a recent emergency meeting, expressing that the dismissal of legal advice was troubling to residents. He criticized theDocusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Town Council Community Discussion Meeting Minutes May 06, 2025 3 Town Manager for what he described as dismissive or mocking behavior toward community members and called on the Council to restore integrity and accountability. He asked Council to listen to residents, stating opposition to proposals such as trailer parks or manure processing facilities, and expressing concern about changes to the election process. He emphasized the need to prioritize the will of the community over personal politics. Virginia Standish raised concerns about traffic safety at the first entrance to Groves Plaza, describing two recent near-miss accidents and stated that the entrance should be converted to one- way traffic. She noted that this location appears to have one of the highest numbers of incidents in the community and referenced recent near collisions involving vehicles entering from Southern Boulevard and Wawa. She also suggested that Palm Beach County Fire Rescue consider using hydrants during training exercises to clear blocked culverts as a no-cost way to assist with drainage in advance of hurricane season. Steve Hoffman referenced the recent emergency meeting concerning the anonymous complaints. He stated that, contrary to what had been discussed, Palm Beach County Animal Control does investigate anonymous complaints. He cited his own experience from July 30, 2024, when an anonymous complaint regarding his property resulted in an investigation that was referred to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. Mr. Hoffman emphasized that anonymous complaints are made and that it should be recognized by the Town. Ms. Lori stated she has been part of the community for more than 30 years and is known to many long-term residents and families. She expressed concern that after filing code complaints about businesses violating Town codes, she was harassed and publicly defamed by the Town Manager, who allegedly attributed unrelated complaints to her. Ms. Lori stated was treated as if she were a fake person despite being a legitimate resident raising valid concerns. She noted that, instead of enforcing violations, the Town had focused on discrediting her while businesses continued to operate in violation of codes, including one that was later rewarded with plans to expand operations on Okeechobee Boulevard. She described the treatment as unprofessional, appalling, and an abuse of taxpayer resources. Ms. Lori demanded that any future code complaints she submits be addressed properly, without harassment or defamation, and emphasized she will speak for herself if clarification is ever needed. She concluded by urging the Council to fix what she sees as a broken system at Town Hall and to handle citizen complaints fairly. Katie Lakeman invited community members to join her in cleaning up the Town’s trails on Friday at 9:00 AM, stating she would provide supplies. She expressed frustration with ongoing code issues and stated that for more than 35 years she has advocated for stronger enforcement against businesses operating along Okeechobee Boulevard. She shared that when she and her family originally sought to open a business in Loxahatchee Groves, they were denied and instead purchased property in Wellington and has now urged the Town to enforce its codes consistently and fairly. Ms. Lakeman added that the condition of the park is currently poor and embarrassingly bad, and she shared photos with the Town Manager. Tracy Raflowitz referenced the prior night’s FAAC meeting and encouraged Council to review the video, noting the incident when a representative of a prospective accounting firm abruptly left the room. She questioned whether this was the type of firm the Town should trust with its financial management. She expressed concern about the tone of Council meetings, describing a lack ofDocusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Town Council Community Discussion Meeting Minutes May 06, 2025 4 collaboration and hostility among leaders, which is perceived as an unproductive environment. Ms. Raflowitz stated that while the Town develops a budget each year, expenditure consistently exceeds it, resulting in overspending and fiscal irresponsibility. She emphasized that taxpayers bear the burden of this mismanagement and called for stronger leadership and accountability. Bill Yahn stated that at a previous meeting he presented photos of code violations, not because he believed Council was unaware of them, but to gauge the Council’s response. He noted that while the violations were already known, his concern was beyond appearance but rather the matters of health and welfare. He explained that following his prior comments, he received more than 60 calls from residents, which he grouped into three categories. The first group claimed agricultural exemptions allowed them to disregard code enforcement, with some admitting to practices such as discharging waste and burying manure. He emphasized that agricultural exemptions do not grant immunity from regulations. The second group were dissatisfied with all Town actions, some of whom made hostile or threatening remarks. The third group, who followed the rules, obtain permits, pay taxes, and expect the Town to enforce its codes consistently. Mr. Yahn described specific violations, including an occupied RV discharging waste directly into a canal near where children fish, and a horse ranch where manure is buried in trenches rather than removed. He warned that such practices risk contaminating the water table, lowering property values, and damaging the community’s reputation. He also criticized the appearance of a large industrial style building at the Town’s entrance, comparing it unfavorably to a crematorium or hangar, and expressed concern about potential RV parks and a proposed manure processing facility. He stated that the Town must focus on code enforcement and stop practices that harm residents’ health, property values, and quality of life. Mr. Yahn provided a document to all Councilmembers (attached hereto as Exhibit A). MOTION: COUNCILMEMBER COLEMAN/COUNCILMEMBER MANIGLIA MOVED TO RECEIVE AND FILE THE PAPERWORK SUBMITTED TO THE DAIS. MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY (5-0). Jane Cleveland stated that she built and owns Poinciana Farm on C Road and has invested all of her resources into maintaining the property. She described her farm as representative of authentic Florida and noted her significant investment in stormwater management, which she is proud to showcase. She also purchased an adjacent five-acre parcel on B Road with the intention of potentially residing there in the future. She acknowledged past code violation issues but expressed appreciation to Town staff and Council for progress being made, thanking them for the efforts in addressing challenging matters. Ms. Cleveland voiced concern about industrial use occurring near her residentially zoned property, noting the potential impact on property values and safety for horseback riders. She offered her support for code enforcement and willingness to assist the Town in its efforts. Jane Harding expressed frustration with ongoing code enforcement issues and stated that she feels unsafe on her property, citing fear of surveillance and repeated citations despite her compliance. She described an incident where a code enforcement officer remained outside her property, and despite assurances from staff that she complied, she was still cited. She questioned why the proposed RV park remains under consideration when the Town already has an RV program that, if improved, could generate revenue without the added traffic, crime, or other impacts. She notedDocusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Town Council Community Discussion Meeting Minutes May 06, 2025 5 that residents do not support the RV park and emphasized that she would not consider paying high rental fees to use it. She mentioned the Town should focus on finalizing and improving its existing RV program rather than starting new projects. Ms. Harding also raised concerns about the lack of progress on Town initiatives, the need for majority votes on major decisions such as rezoning, and her opposition to three-year Council terms. She stressed the importance of completing projects properly, improving transparency regarding anonymous letters and texts, and ensuring that regulations fairly distinguish between responsible property owners and violators. She concluded by stating that transparency should not be an issue if all actions are legitimate. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Kane transitioned directly into the next scheduled meeting at 6:52 PM.

CODE ENFORCEMENT SUGGESTIONS TO IMPLEMENT: 1. Hire a second code enforcement officer ASAP. Ideally that new officer will work 2/3 weekends per month and have the proper number of related week days off to compensate. Our current code officer is overwhelmed, and many violations take place on weekends. 2. Review and refine code policy and protocols to insure everything relates, ”dove-tails” and streamlines the process so code enforcement is more efficient, timely and effective. Evidently our current code policy is not as clear and connected as it should be — and this needs review/correction. 3. Grant code officers the ability to issue tags and fines immediately upon ascertaining a violation IF that violation rises to the level where a fine is appropriate AND the property owner indicates that will not adhere to town codes, rules or laws. Ihave been told that a list of infractions where immediate fines may be warranted has not been developed or voted upon, and this needs to be done. If a concern is that code fines could be weaponized, require a second layer of approval by the town manager — with the fine issued timely thereafter. 4. Make code enforcement a priority. No other issue should take priority over the health, safety, welfare and protection of property values, period. if the town managers contract is to be renewed then it should be done by the entire council — not one member. An attachment to that contract renewal should be a requirement that code enforcement is a critical part of the job description and needs more focus. Written updates as to the town managers progress in furthering code enforcement should be provided council every 6O days, and a failure to make progress would be grounds for termination/dismissal. EXHIBIT ADocusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Clearly code enforcement failures are not attributable to one employee. However, to renew the town managers employment without a written emphasis on code enforcement would be mistake, and send taxpayers a very poor response to their pleas that code enforcement be improved. Code enforcement as a significant part of our town managers job. It cannot be abdicated or assigned to others. However, the town manager needs be supported by our council and our citizens as steps are taken to improve performance in this area. Town council needs to do more to insure our codes, permit requirements are enforced and their constituent’s health/safety are better protected as we move forward. PLEASE IMPLEMENT ALL THESE SUGGESTIONS.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Building Department Quarterly Report October – December 2023 Building Department 2nd Quarter 2025 Report – Jan 1- March 31, 2025 Building Department 2nd Quarter 2025 Report – Jan 1- March 31, 2025 2nd Quarter 2025 Permitting System Transition Overview During the 2nd Quarter of 2025, permit applications and issuances were processed through both the legacy Gove-Easy system and the newly adopted My Government Online (MGO) platform. This dual-system usage during the transition period has resulted in minor discrepancies between the reported number of permits and the total fees collected. As of the end of the quarter, MGO is now fully implemented and operational for all permit types, including Building, Site Development, Right-of-Way (ROW), Vegetation Removal, and various others. The new system enhances the permitting process by enabling: • Seamless digital submittals • Streamlined plan reviews • Real-time inspection scheduling and tracking • Improved customer and applicant communication • This modernization represents a significant step forward in service delivery, increasing transparency and efficiency across all permitting operations.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

Code Compliance Department Quarterly Report – January 1 to March 31, 2025 Mission Statement To protect the health, safety, and welfare of residents, visitors, and property through education, cooperation, and voluntary compliance. Code Compliance Operations Summary The Code Compliance Department’s primary focus is to achieve voluntary compliance through education and communication. Given the Town’s rural character—with large, fenced parcels—initial outreach is typically through Courtesy Letters followed by formal postings such as Notices of Violation (NOV)/Notices of Hearing (NOH) if compliance cannot be achieved through cooperation. While the Department is complaint-driven, officers are also empowered to take action when they observe violations in the field. In 2023 and in 2024, the Town Council directed staff to take a proactive approach to critical items including: • Floodplain Development Activities (FDAs) • Unauthorized clearing or construction • Manure violations • Recreational vehicles visible from the road • Unpermitted commercial vehicle use Anonymous complaints are not accepted under Florida Statute 162.21 unless there is an imminent threat to public health, safety, or the environment. The Town may verify the identity of complainants as all information becomes public record. Voluntary compliance remains the goal. Staff prioritizes communication before enforcement and regularly resolves issues through phone calls, meetings, and outreach. Courtesy Letters are effective in addressing minor issues such as vegetation overgrowth, improper trailer parking, or bulk trash. However, formal enforcement is necessary for more serious violations like unpermitted fill in flood hazard areas. Communicating with residents is key to resolving violations.

Updated NOVs are being finalized this week. For cases that have already gone before the Special Magistrate, a 30-day correction window was granted. Code Compliance staff will calendar these cases for re-evaluation in four months to confirm long-term compliance. If violations persist, staff will bring those cases forward for Council review to consider foreclosure, following reauthorization from the Special Magistrate. For properties where no recreational vehicle (RV) was found on site, files will be closed. Given that the current timeframe is outside of peak season, there will be no immediateDocusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

reinspections. However, staff will calendar those properties for reevaluation during the next high season. Cases involving occupied RVs will be scheduled for on-site inspections next week, with an anticipated rate of 7–10 inspections per day. Inspections will be conducted by any available trained Code Officer and/or other staff, including support from Jacek if inspections are required over a weekend. Staff continue to manage significant workload demands related to RV cases—including case file preparation, investigations, resident communication, and hearing preparation. While progress has been steady, resources remain limited. Staff remain hopeful that these represent the final phase of intensive RV enforcement efforts. Fines and Liens Summary The Town continues to track significant fines and liens associated with unresolved or repeat code violations. As of March 31, 2025, the top violators remain consistent, with substantial amounts accrued across multiple cases. Other properties have smaller but recurring fines, often related to zoning, floodplain activity, and/or unpermitted construction/activities. Staff will continue to monitor these properties and pursue Magistrate orders and title searches where warranted under the Town's November 2024 foreclosure policy where: Foreclosure may be considered if: • Liens exceed $100,000 • Property is out of compliance for over a year • Violations pose a risk to health or safety Enforcement prioritizes high-risk, non-homesteaded properties with long-standing noncompliance. Before any action: • Staff must verify eligibility, order title search, complete a checklist, and obtain a Special Magistrate order • Obtain required Town Council approval However, the Town has one case approved by the Town Council to proceed to foreclosure which we are in the process of hiring a specialized foreclosure attorney. We also have approximately 8 cases which we are seeking title searches to determine if a foreclosure is appropriate.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

155 F Road Loxahatchee Groves, FL 33470 5 TO: Town Council of Town of Loxahatchee Groves FROM: Jeff Kurtz, Project Coordinator DATE: May 6, 2025 SUBJECT: Review of Quarterly financial reports Background: Attached are the Budget to Actual (B2A) for Revenues and Expenditures Report for the following periods: 1. September 30, 2024, 4 th Quarter of FY24 2. December 31, 2024, 1 st Quarter of FY 25 3. March 31, 2025, 2 nd Quarter of FY 25 Also attached are vendor reports for the FY 24 and through the second quarter of FY25, and balance sheet through the second quarter of FY 25. The fund balance information for the close of FY 24 can be found in the draft audit document at page 18. The FY25 budget will be the subject of a proposed budget amendment. Among the areas that will be proposed for amendment are: 1. Legal Services – The total legal services budget for FY25 absent cost recovery items was $226,120 consisting of $193,000 for general legal services and $33,120 for code enforcement work. The B2A second quarter report shows expenditures for those services had exceeded the allocated annual budget by approximately $7,000. Those expenditures were for 5 months of the fiscal year as the invoices for March were not received until April. Total charges for legal services were approximately $44,000. The Town Attorney has indicated the firm will be requesting a budget adjustment equal to $30,000 per month for the remainder of the fiscal year, which will mean a total adjustment of approximately $230,000, if the request is granted by Town Council. 2. The Town Council had directed staff to pursue TPA grants related to Okeechobee Boulevard improvements, so as a part of the budget amendment staff will be requesting the reinstitution of $100,000 to the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to cover costs associated with that project for this fiscal year. 3. Establishing a Community Servies Director to oversee planning, engineering review, and code enforcement functions and the retention of a full-time code enforcement officer will require monies to be reallocated in the General Fund.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2

155 F Road Loxahatchee Groves, FL 33470 6 4. Savings incurred in bid prices versus budgeted amounts for culvert projects, catch basins and drainage projects will allow the completion of swale work on 161 st to be contracted out and the return of public works drainage crews to begin work on the A road canal restabilization and thus move forward with the A Road paving project. 5. Additional funds are necessary to carry out the planning and design related to Tangerine and Citrus service improvements. The staff is prepared to discuss these issues in greater detail at the meeting. David DiLena from Projected Point, Inc., the Town’s proposed Finance Director will present the reports to the Council. Recommendation: Receive and file.Docusign Envelope ID: F3241BE9-71D1-4355-8236-DFF9B9AAB0C2
