September is Library Card Sign-Up Month Vice Mayor Tornga read the proclamation designating September Library Card Sign-up Month in Dunedin and encouraging everyone to sign up for their own library card today. Library Director Gorshe commented : Library Sign-Up Month is an annual celebration aiming to spotlight the myriad of ways a library card can empower individuals and enrich communities. All Dunedin residents are encouraged to get a library card. Dunedin 's cardholder count is 26 ,000 people , which is impressive for our community . The library card expires every 3 years , so it might need to be updated. Librar ies are not only about books ; they are dynamic places that foster creativity , inspire lifelong learning , community , and exploration . The library card is a passport to the world , and at Dunedin Library , it is that literally as the Library became a Passport Acceptance Facility in April ; people can now get their passport at the Dunedin Public Library. There is access to cutting-edge technology , museum passes , birding backpacks , and seeds , just to name a few of their outstanding services . 23-1

Presentation of AARP Age Friendly Plaque (2023) Assistant to the City Manager Delfino introduced Sally Hess , formerly with the Committee on Aging , and Michelle Cyr from American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) . She referred to a PowerPoint presentation provided in the staffing and noted : Duned in is a Livable Community which includes essential features that allow res idents of all ages and backg rounds to thr ive to include : Outdoor Spaces ; Transportation ; Civi c Participation ; Community Support ; and so on . Livable Communities include public spaces that benefit everyone. Livable Communities prov ide access to essential businesses , such as grocery stores . Duned in's Livable Score las t year was 57 , which is representative of the top half of communities in the United States and is calculated with various categories. Duned in's Action Plan was submitted in 2019 ; this is a 3-year plan that resulted in a report compiled and submitted earlier th is year. The report is attached to the agenda item , which included six goals in the 3- year plan , many of which are part of the City 's Business Plan as well. Looking Ahead : • Goal review and measurement • Cross-pollinate AARP plan goals with : Master Plans Resilience/Emergency Plans Affordable Housing Green Energy Plan Michelle Cyr , Associate State Director for Community Outreach in Tampa Bay AARP , presented a plaque to the City of Dunedin , recognizing its leadership in mak ing its community an even better place to live for people of all ages and abilities. She advised : The City of Dunedin is one of 45 Age-Friendly communities in Florida and nearly 800 across the U.S. The Age-F ri endly Commun ity process represents a commitment to improving areas of community life and a built-in social env ironment in which we live , work , play , and age . Today is the celebration of a milestone the completion of a 5-year cycle . Aligned wit h the City 's Ep ic ! Goals , they are particularly impressed with the Cit y's transportation efforts to help people get around and the imp rovement and play options , as well as the Recreation Center act ivities and ongoing enhancements to access outdoor spaces such as the beaches . They are proud that the Dunedin Public Library was a recipient of the AARP 's 2022 Community Challenge Grant , one of only ten recipients in Florida for 2022 ; this project added universal access to pi cnic tables and sidewalk snapshots around the Library. 23-2

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission Vice Mayor Tornga pointed out a section in the minutes about the Veterans Park and someone had talked about perhaps nam ing it the Roebling Park ; he had some ser ious conversation about that and said he would like to see it be a Veterans Pa rk for all Veterans and probably name a section Roebling . He did not want to make a major issue , but he just wanted to clarify that would be his recommendation. MOTION: Motion was made by Commissioner Walker and seconded by Commissioner Freaney to approve Consent Agenda item 2.a.C. Mayor Bujalski opened public input this item . Hearing and seeing no one wishing to speak , Mayor Bujalski closed the public input. VOTE: Motion carr ied unanimously. 2.b. Increase Purchase Order (PO) amount for contracted services with Waste Pro USA for the processing of Mixed Recyclables Commissioner Walker expressed concern regarding the increased cost of disposal and the cost increase of almost $200 ,000 , noting that it was budgeted ; however , he would like a brief overview. Public Works Director Bartlett advised industry representatives were in attendance . Solid Waste Division Director Pickrum explained : Previously , China was the biggest consumer of recyclables for many countries . Once they stopped and became much stricter on what they were accepting , the market went down in the value of those mater ials , it hurt the economic side of the industry as a whole. Dunedin 's program , like most of Pinellas County , is a mixed-recycling program , which has a cost to sort and process and make available what could be sold in the open market. Today , the request is for the cost for this year to be able to pay for the processing , which is based on a variable unknown element being market-driven. Last year , the markets were healthy , and he was not requesting more money because the processing fees were none , having made proceeds in three quarters ; one quarter was net zero. The market went down this year and he anticipates the close of th is last quarter for the City will be $195 ,000 to pay the processing fees. Over the past year to year-and-a-half , other municipalities have been in similar situations with this added cost. In his opinion , Pinellas County is unusual in how debris , trash , and recyclables are collected ; of the two dozen municipalities responsible for that type of collection , a good portion have in-house collectors , some have contracts directly with private companies , and then there is a significant portion that are unincorporated , so there are a lot of players doing this work in Pinellas County . To a degree , it is an open market with all municipalities trying to fend for themselves. Over the last two years , a couple of mun icipalities have amped up their request for the County to provide some support. The City has done that through their group , which is the Technical Management Committee . He sits on this committee , which represents collection experts in municipalit ies and the pr ivate sector ; Dunedin 's City Manager sits in with the County Administrator because of the City asking for that help . Over the last year , the County has looked to give help by bringing in a Materials Recovery Facil ity (MRF) because the region is under -factored . An MRF is a process ing plant for recyclables ; in Pinellas County , there is one down by Tropicana Field . There are other MRFs in Hillsborough County , Sarasota , and Polk . Pinellas does not have adequate capacity to process , so the County put out a bid to find if there was a private company that would help to build a MRF to provide more capacity. That bid received no response ; the problem was that everyone is in thei r own agreements and it was trying to get everyone to give the guarantee they would provide 23-4

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission the materials for a contract to the awarded builder , which was not in the agreement. With no response , it was back to square one ; however , there is work ongoing in the County on that issue . The concern for Dunedin in north county is where a facility would be built in consideration of the transportation costs . Public Works Director Bartlett noted the City is actively participating not just in the suggestion and restructuring of the bid but also in the ordinances being passed as they realize that with Dunedin 's pr ivate contractor , they bid and awarded publicly. There are assurances that the City 's recyclables are being processed correctly ; there are checks and balances in that contract , as well as accountabil ity through cameras and reports . Not only are the totals being checked , but they are checking that they are be ing properly processed. In response to the question from Comm iss ioner Walker , she advised the City 's contract is capped at 3%. Mr . Pickrum also advised the City is in a good position in terms of the per ton cost as compared to other cit ies. Vice Mayor Tornga suggested a near future discussion on this issue for the short , intermed iate , and long -term actions regard ing recyclables due to the changes . Ms. Bartlett explained it would probably be close to a year before substantial changes are made based on the analysis for the short term ; the long term would be based on the ordinances and whether or not the County decides to invest in a MRF. City Manager Bramley estimated it would be the 2nd quarter of the next fiscal year that staff would be able to provide an overview ; she would add that to the list. In response to the quest ion from Commissioner Gow regarding the 17 % contamination rate , Mr. Pickrum expla ined the City is one of the least-contaminated programs in comparison . The industry average is 25% ; it is a fluid number and a goal would be much less. Bob ten Haaf, WastePro Divisional Vice President , advised : Their MRF is in Sarasota on the south end of Manatee County . Dunedin 's recyclables are comingled with all others. They went through a composition study in 2020 and another is about to be done ; that is what they base everything on. The 17% is a really good number . The real cost is whatever commodities are. They are beginning to see more mills in the United States as a reaction to China. He continued to provide detailed answers to questions from the Commission regarding the market , contam inat ion , values of various mater ials including newspape rs, plast ics , and the top-valued aluminum , with the standard being cardboard and the relation to the cost of processing . MOTION: Mot ion was made by Commissioner Walker and seconded by Comm iss ioner Freaney to approve Consent Agenda item 2.b . Mayor Bujalski opened public input this item. Hearing and seeing no one wishing to speak , Mayor Bujalski closed the public input. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously . 2.e. Amendment No. 1 to the American Janitorial, Inc., (AJI) Contract for Custodial Services Commiss ioner Freaney inquired if the Library Director and Parks & Recreation Directo r we re happy with the jan itorial services , since they are the major facilities with the public com ing through . Public Works Director Bartlett advised they have been happy and have seen a lot less compla ints with th is vendor . There is a person dedicated who has had a shift in hours to be there and be mo re proact ive. 23-5

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission The contract is good. Compared to the comp laints over the past year , there has currently been a spike ; however , City staff is addressing the issues. Commissioner Freaney explained her concerns regarding contracting the janitorial services versus in- house with the point of always comparing the contracts and services against what could be done in- house ; with a custodial staff the City could have more control. Ms. Bartlett advised staff will be implementing that analysis , which will involve service levels , and will be able to bring that information back to the Commission. MOTION: Motion was made by Commissioner Freaney and seconded by Commissioner Walker to approve Consent Agenda item 2.e. Mayor Bujalski opened public input this item . Hearing and seeing no one wishing to speak , Mayor Bujalski closed the public input. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. 2.f. Award of Bid 23-1238 titled "Miscellaneous Waterline Fittings and Repair Parts - Rebid" In response to the questions from Vice Mayor Tornga , Utilities Director Bennett advised this is what the City 's own staff uses to maintain the system. MOTION: Motion was made by Vice Mayor Tornga and seconded by Commissioner Freaney to approve Consent Agenda item 2.f. Mayor Bujalski opened public input this item. Hearing and seeing no one wishing to speak , Mayor Bujalsk i closed the public input. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. 2.g.

BREAK approx . 10:03 A.M . -10:15 A.M . 4. WORKSHOP ITEMS 4.a. 2023 Business Survey Results 23-6

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Staff Presentation Dunedin City Commission Assistant to the City Manager Delfino introduced Anne Wittine from Research Data Services and provided an overview and results of the 2023 Business Survey. She thereafter referred to the PowerPoint presentation provided in the staffing with the following highlights and comments: Survey Information and Logistics outlined on Page 1 of the PowerPoin t: This survey was similar to what was done with the Citizens Survey ; it entails a close duplication on the body of the survey with some adjustments made , as previously reviewed with the Commission. For similarity and comparison purposes , they attempted to keep most of the questions similar with some changes from open-ended questions to multiple choice. Sample Size, Confidence, Margin of Error (Table on Page 2) Comparison to the 2022 Survey: there were a few less respondents in 2023 Ms. Wittine explained some details of the survey to inc lude : The 147 surveys received represents 10% - 15% of Dunedin businesses and explained about the calculations of results for responses . In the middle of the 2020 Survey , the shutdown for COVID-19 happened. She thought part of the reasons for more responses at that time was that business was very uncertain and they were not quite as busy as they are now. Ms. Wittine explained the meaning of the sample size and what is needed for the survey results to be statistically representative. This sample size is representative and yields statistically accurate results within the 5% + or - level of confidence , which is the industry standard. Commission questions, concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Question regarding the length of the 2023 survey versus the 2020 survey MAJOR FINDINGS - DUNEDIN AS A PLACE (Graph - Page 6) Graph - Comparison of 2020 and 2023 Overall Satisfaction Ratings 91 % Satisfaction with City Services Across the board , the ratings are high with some shifts; nothing is overly significant In several categories , several shifts were seen in the Very Satisfied jump a little bit , as opposed to the combination of Very Satisfied and Satisfied. Ms. Wittine explained : None of the changes seen are statistically significant , which does not mean the City is not doing better at achieving its objectives ; it means when getting ratings at 97% , there is not room for statistically significant upward shifts . The fact of maintaining those high levels of satisfaction is really important. One of the biggest upward shifts was the Excellent as opposed to the combined Excellent and Very Good ratings in Safety , which alone went from 59.6% to 67.6% Commission questions , concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Clarification that the 2023 Results on this chart should be Excellent/Good Question regarding the Quality of New Development , the only category in the 80 percentages and not the 90 percentages , which had to do with the concerns about the character of the City ; overall , there seemed to be less concern about the direction and amount of new development. 23-7

Wittine explained this was an area where they did not see particularly significant shifts in the scores and answers between 2020 and 2023 , although there was an upward drift in all these numbers . They did see growth in all the very satisfied scores . CITY SERVICES OPPORTUNITY AREAS (Graph - Page 9) For some of the categories , a little less was seen as far as not being in the 80 and 90 percentages , which were called opportunity areas ; however , they are still high in satisfaction : Public Transportation Traffic - increase in satisfaction Building /Permitting Affordable Housing - significant change reiterated in the comments Parking - was not asked in 2020 Commiss ion questions , concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Question regarding the Affordable Housing and suggestion to delve into that issue on the next survey and question as to whether it was defined differently for the business community. Discussion ensued regard ing workforce /affordable housing with information provided that 49.6% of businesses estimate their employees reside in the City ; in 2020 , it was 50.8% , a minor change year over year. Clarificat ion regarding the Traffic being Satisfied or Very Satisfied , which was one of the most surprising ; Ms. Wittine thought it was due to new people in the City and in response to the City 's efforts to improve . Before proceed ing to the ne xt slide , Mrs. Wittine advised regard ing Parking ; only 11.2% are sayi ng they are Very Satisfied with Dunedin and pa rking , and the balance of that is Satisfied . INFRASTRUCTURE & MAINTENANCE - CONCERN AREAS (Graph Page 10) Areas of Concern : (Ranging from 62 .90 % Parking to 5.70% Street Lighting) Parking 23-8

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Pace of Development Public Transportation Citywide Wi-Fi Condition of Streets Condition of Medians Power Infrastructure Water/Sewer Business Lighting Street Lighting Dunedin City Commission This survey provided choices rather than the open question in 2020. The reason is when the survey is done again in two years , it will prov ide something quantitative to compare against. This was not a rating. Commission questions, concerns, and comments were addressed to include : Clarification regarding the Pace of Development , the question was whether or not they thought the City was growing too quickly or at the right speed ; in 2020 , 30 .7% said they thought the City was growing and developing too quickly. This time , it was 29.7% trending downward ; the majority think growth is at the right speed. Question if it could be told from the comments if the businesses are pro "car-centric " or if it is a parking issue ; do the business care how people get to or move around Dunedin? Ms. Wittine responded the businesses do care and provided information on the question involving multimodal and alternative modes of transportation and how those affected their business . It was pointed out in the comments at the end of the report that besides Code Enforcement , the number one comment is lack of parking , not enough parking , too much traffic , etc. ; the same was indicated in the last survey FACTORS IMPORTANT TO BUSINESS LOCATION Top 5 Most Important Attributed to Attract Business Operations : 95% - Low Crime Rate 94% -Attitude of local government towards business 93% - Overall image of City 87% - Synergistic Business/Professional Community 80% - Tourism Ms. Wittine noted statistically significant increases in the respondents who thought both the attitude of local government toward business and the overall image of the City were extremely important factors in their business decisions to locate here . CODES & REGULATIONS (Graph - Page 12) Categories of Zoning , Landscaping , Signage , Parking Ms. Wittine explained this specifically dealt with parking regulations ; in reading the comments , even in making improvements and changes in the zoning department , for example , she was seeing comments that related that experience that went back 10 years. Those types of departments are something the majority of businesses only interface with occasionally , so it will take a while before improvements ripple through and show up in survey responses . Demand for Online Services : 1) Permitting 23-9

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 2) Business Tax Receipt 3) Incident Reporting 4) Utilities Services 5) Special Events 6) Golf Cart Registration Dunedin City Commission Commission questions1 concerns 1 and comments were addressed to include: Question regarding the Permitting online; City Manager Bramley provided information on the anticipated implem entation . EVENTS (Graphic & Table - Page 13) Ms. Delfino advised this was added to the 2023 survey because staff has been hearing about how events might be impacting the businesses. There was a series of questions of how they were impacted in terms of employees, hours , sales, customer traffic , and so forth . Events Impacting Business Operating Hours : Open -47% Close-5% Outside of Hours - 25% Event Dependent - 23% Ms. Wittine explained : In the 2020 survey, one of the things heard was the sentiment that businesses located downtown and on Main Street versus just off of Main Street were treated differently or had more attention, and businesses further away thought they did not have the same focus. That was still heard a bit in this survey, but definitely less. In 2020 , there was an open-ended question as to positive or negative effects, and in this survey, they took those responses and made a series about events. Downtown businesses were more likely to say events increased business and more likely to say that events decreased business ; both were more likely to happen downtown , but through comments, it seemed efforts the City has made to spread events out have positively impacted businesses who were not experiencing those impacts before. In fact , Events rated in the top five things that businesses favor that the City is doing for them . Event Information Highlights : 1) Majority of businesses stay open during events 2) One in five Businesses report increase in business following events 3) Most positive = Spring Training (49%) 4) Most negative= Mardi Gras (14.4%) 5) 65.7% of respo ndents are invo lved with City Events Ms. Wittine commented: The businessowners very much see themselves as members of the community as well. Part of the reason Spring Training is so positive for so many businesses is that it lasts a month and a half, as opposed to most events that are for a weekend or a day. COMMUNICATIONS (Graphic - Page 14) Communications Update : 23-10

Wo rk Sess ion Minutes Septe mber 5, 2023 1) 75.9% rate City Communications as excellen t/ good 2) 81.4% of Businesses use dunedingov.com 3) Social Media is used nearly equally as often as the website 4) Prominent Sources of Information: a) City Website (39.3%) b) Social Media (38.6%) c) Chamber of Commerce (34.3%) City Communications Ratings : Excellent- 19.7% Good-56.2% Below Average - 13 .9% Poor-10.2% Dunedin City Commissio n Ms . Wittine noted 76% of respondents this time rated communications as Excellent or Good ; in 2020 , that was 74%. This is not a huge improvement ; however , in 2020 , she saw many very negative comments about feelings that the City had never reached out or communicat ed with them. She really did not see those comments th is time , and they were significantly less than last time. Commission questions , concerns, and comments were addressed to include : Concern there were still negative comments regarding the feeling the City had never reached out or communicated with them , and that issue needs work . 2023 BUSINESS SURVEY- NEXT STEPS • Digest raw data and survey results • Development of an Action Plan • Work with Business/Resident/City Council (BRC) and OT Task Force Ms . Delfino noted : The attachments to the staffing are the full report that delves into each of the questions and the responses ; these include open-ended questions and the survey instrument itself. Staff will review and work through the high priorities mentioned. The resource developed over the last year and a half with the BRC Council and the Downtown Task Force , which has really helped with communication and sharing ideas . Public Input Mayor Bujalski opened the item to public input. Hearing and seeing no one wishing to speak , Mayor Bujalsk i closed the publ ic input. Commiss ion questions , concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Vice Mayor Tornga commented on the need to get into the detail of the survey ; concern for possibly jumping to conclusions with results ; and clarification on the general location of the respondents on Main Street , S.R.580 , and so forth that could be used to further research specifics . Ms . Wittine provided clarificat ion and advised they could drill down on the survey in any area the Commiss ion wished . Commissioner Gow expressed support for the surveys to provide information and noted the matter now is to determine where the City can improve . Commiss ioner Freaney commented regarding the park ing issue , with two-thirds rat ing the concern of parking from an infrastructure point of view huge . Ms . Wittine and Ms. Delfino prov ided clarification , 23-11

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Duned in City Commission noting the 2020 question was open-ended ; in 2023 , a list was provided to check off and parking was one of those on the list. It was not rating how significant an issue they thought it was here , with that percentage saying that many businesses said parking was an area of infrastructure concern. Commissioner Freaney asked how the responses for parking relate to downtown versus out of downtown and also how it compares to the Citizen Survey response to parking in the downtown. That information was not readily available but can be provided . Commiss ioner Walker inquired whether or not the feeling was there was commiserate percentage of participat ion from the businesses not located downtown , that they were represented well. Ms. Wittine advised they did and can provide the break-outs . Ms. Wittine pointed out that only 11.2% said they were Very Satisfied with the parking ; of the balance , 51 % were Satisfied . She will provide the break-out of that number to staff , i.e. downtown versus other , and check whether or not it was asked in the Citizen Survey and how that is related , as well as the percentage of people located downtown versus elsewhere . Commiss ioner Walker pointed out the importance of these surveys and the importance of participation to provide a lot of information on how decisions are made. He expressed concern that 150 responses seemed to no t be a big number to him. Mayor Bu j alski stated her takeaways regarding the survey with the caveat of not wanting anyone to take offense from her comments , noting this is her time to talk with the Commissioners. The top issues she saw throughout the survey , based on multiple questions and the written comments , is that there is obviously some concern with Code Enforcement and Planning & Development. The concern about it is that what they are saying are things like selective enforcement , equal playing field , inconsistent enforcement , more co ll aborat ion is needed with that department , better landscap ing and curb appeal citywide , etc . She kno ws that City Manage r Bramley has been deeply involved in the Business / Resident/City Task Force and is working to address many of these issues . This survey is just a point in time. She has to say that she was elected in 2006 and she has been hearing the same complaint since then ; there have been different Directors , different people involved , and a huge amount has been done to improve . That cannot go unnoticed. Ms . Witt ine noted the negative experiences from the past are still being repeated in the survey today ; even with all the improvements made , a particular businessowner has not necessar ily interfaced with that department. Mayor Bu j alsk i agreed and commented it might be some messaging ; she thinks the City has an excellent Supervisor in Code Enforcement and the Code Enforcement rules have changed . This is spec ific to businesses and what was mentioned repeatedly was bureaucracy , that it is hard to get anything done , one business getting favored over another , etc. Many of these issues are being addressed with the Business Task Force and some of those things will come forward ; she just thinks it is moving a little too slowly , but not that group . This is why all these positions are being added ; the City cannot move any faster and it is an ongoing problem. Ms. Witt ine noted she read all the comments and general trending has to be considered ; also , some people repeat the same comment over and over to make sure the Commiss ion hears it. Mayor Bu j alsk i continued : Park ing is mentioned repea tedly as affecting their business . Commun ication is ment ioned , which has improved dramatically . 23-12

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission She wants the information to be used constructively and think outside the box and not try to explain it away. Everyone has worked very hard for improvement since the last survey and before , and there are many reasons for things being as they are ; she just does not want a defense mode, but to be openminded in addressing the issues. She would like to see City Manager Bramley and her team come back with ideas and how they plan to take steps on those major commented items ; this is not to say immediately , but over the next period of time. City Manager Bramley explained: As a result of this survey , staff will develop an action plan as they did for the previous surveys. The plan will have actionable items to address some of the comments in the survey. She noted in the residents' survey, staff found some of the comments were about things the City was already doing, and there is some of that in this business survey as well. In terms of the issues Mayor Bujalsk i was addressing , staff can put those together in ways that they can affect and change that opinion or not, saying this is someth ing the City cannot do. It is import ant to address those comments head-on and then convey the change to the community ; traffic is an example of the City doing a lot to alleviate traffic issues. Mayor Bujalski emphasized she did not want City Departments and its valuable people to have the wrong impression; she thinks the City has some of the hardest-working people. City Manager Bramley commented: The City has an educated , professional staff who are dedicated to what they are doing; she thinks regulation is difficult , even in the best of times. She thinks the Code Compliance Division is administering the Code on an equal basis throughout; however, it takes time. The issu es of the past have been addressed ; there is a professional Code Compliance Supervisor in place who has been in the business for 25 years and she has the staff as well. Also , they have professional Planners who have been doing this for a long time ; she does not want them to take this discussion in any way as a negative . They have her support and some of these comments will be addressed within the survey. Economic Development is also a difficult area and affordable housing is an issue , which is agreed to be due to the current environment. Overall , the City 's professionals and some of the things they are doing are imaginative and innovative. There is much ongoing that the public does not see on a regular basis.

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission The Committee met six (6) times during the six months following the appointment and reviewed all Sections of the City Charter. The meetings were open to the public , as well as elected officials, and were advertised in several different media to encourage people to give the Committee their thoughts and opinions during this process . Throughout the six meetings , the Committee did have a few residents of Dunedin attend at the beginning of each meeting ; they were encouraged to share their thoughts and recommendations and were invited to remain and listen to the committee discussion. After studying the Charter and comparing the topics to other municipalities' charters , the Committee thoroughly discussed each item and agreed by vote , some by majority and many unanimously , to recommend several items for revision consideration . Many of the items were merely grammatical in nature or for improved clarity . The Committee agreed upon ten (10) proposed revisions to thirteen (13) sections. 1. PROPOSED REVISION: Change the order of Section 1.02. to 1.03. and renumber accordingly to Sec tion 1.02 . Construction and Section 1.03. Acqu isition and Disposal of Property ; Eminent Domain . 2. PROPOSED REVISION : Add an Introductory Paragraph to Article Ill. City Commission , before Section 3.01. As a municipal ity , the City Commission has certain powers and authority as derived from the Florida Constitution , Florida Statutes, this Charter, and as otherwise provided by law. 3. PROPOSED REVISION : Change any reference to "he " to "he or she " or "his " to "his or her. " Recogn ition of equality amongst genders. Commission questions, concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Should it be "his or her " or "them "; Mr . Peterson explained the Committee ag reed on "his or her" to recognize the equality and did not go into that area of discussion . City Attorney Cowan adv ised the Commission could follow the recommendation of the committee or adjust it further . She noted within the City 's Code of Ord inances , there is a section on interpretation where it is identified that every time there is a masculine , it could be interpreted as masculine or feminine , so it could also be addressed there without having to go through a full Charter change . She noted the proposed change only affected a couple of sections because everywhere else it was already designated that way , so it was a consistency matter. 4. PROPOSED REVISION : Change "shall cease " to "ceases ." The City Manager shall file a letter with the City Commission designating a qualified adm inistrative person to exercise the powers and duties of the City Manager dur ing any extended absence or disability . The City Comm iss ion may revoke such designation at any time and appoint another pe rson to se rv e until the Manager returns or the disability Sfla# cease§.. 5. PROPOSED REVISION : Delete a comma (", ") after "shall ". Section 4.06. Personnel System. All appointments and promotions of City employees except those specifically exempted by ord inance shall be made solely on the basis of merit and fitness demonstrated by examination or other evidence of competence , and to th is end , the Commission shall , establish personnel procedures and rules. 6. PROPOSED REVISION : Eliminate 3rd paragraph by putting the first sentence at the end of the second paragraph and the second sentence at the beginning of the fourth paragraph. 23-14

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission Mr. Peterson explained the point was to consolidate the language , which was a bit repetitive ; the Committee agreed this would clarify and help make the language more concise without altering the intent of the section. Section 5.03. Elections . The regular election of Mayor and Commissioners shall be held on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November of every year in which an election is held in the manner provided in Article V of this Charter and shall be for four (4) year terms.

Future elections shall be held in the same sequence . Candidates for the office of City Commissioner shall qual ify for a single numbered specific seat. In the first year in which an election (i.e. March 8, 2011) for Commissioners is held , the qualified electors shall elect two (2) Commissioners , one for seat two (2) and one for seat four (4) to serve for a term of three (3) years ; thereafter , seats two (2) and four (4) shall serve for a term of four (4) years. In the following election (i.e. November 6, 2012) , the qualified electors shall elect a Mayor and two (2) Commissioners , one for seat one (1) and one for seat three (3) , to serve for a term of four (4) years. The candidate receiving the highest number of votes for the numbered seat shall be declared elected , if otherwise qualified. The candidates so elected shall assume their offices at a Special City Commission meeting on the second Monday following the election .

Any Commissioner who has served for two (2) consecutive full four-year terms as Commissioner will be eligible as a candidate for the next Mayoral election. The Mayor , after two consecutive full four-year terms as Mayor , will not be eligible to run for Commissioner without waiting until the next election . 7. PROPOSED REVISIONS: Change any reference to "voters " to "electors " and add " ' " after candidates. Section 5.04. Election Ordinance. The City Commission shall , by City Ordinance , define and describe the vetef--electors and candidates' qualifications , rules , and methods of conducting elections within the City of Dunedin. Mr. Peterson explained the intent was that the Charter kept alternating between voters and electors; the Committee is saying to decide on a word and use it all the way through. Commission questions, concerns, and comments were addressed to include: Question as to why the preference for electors over voters. 23-15

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission City Attorney Cowan explained the Committee discussed that in Section 5.01 of the Charter there is the word "electors " and a definition is provided ; she thought they were trying to continue that throughout. 8.

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Debris Removal after Hurricane Idalia City Manager Bramley advised : Dunedin City Commission The storm debris removal is a somewhat complicated process in terms of whether it is FEMA-eligible. There was a long conversation in the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) the morning after the storm about debris . At that point , some residents had already started putting some debris on the curb on the swale area. The question was whether or not it is eligible for FEMA reimbursement for the City . She asked Solid Waste Director Pickrum and Director of Public Works Bartlett to put together some of the costs if it were not eligible for reimbursement by FEMA. It would be easy to have staff go ahead and remove the debris ; the problem is it cannot go to the Waste Energy Plant as construction debris. It has to go to a different facility and the City has to pay for that disposal. She really needed to know what that cost would look like and it is over $300 ,000 . Over the weekend on Saturday , she received notification from Chief Dewayne Fast , the District Chief on duty that day, that FEMA was in the area and were doing a drive-by assessment , which was good. Through their Regional Operations Center , the County has been pushing cities to report damages as a result of the storm . There are damages in the flooded areas , which are individual homes. The City facilities were not damaged for the most part , but there was some minor damage here and there. Late on Sunday night , word was received that the City is FEMA-eligible , which is very good news. Staff is waiting for her after this meeting to start talking about debris removal. She asked that residents be a little more patient ; the effort needs to be coordinated. After their meeting and she knows the timing, she will advise the Commission and they will put it out on social media as well. The City does have debris haulers under contract and a debris monitoring company. Once it is determined ·the City is FEMA-eligible at that point , the process can be put in place. Mayor Bujalski advised she was hearing from residents mostly in Baywood Shores and they were asking about furniture , wet drywall , and so forth. If possible, she would like for some communication with them and others affected today about it being a special haul and not their regular trash pick-up. In response to the question from Commissioner Freaney , City Manager Bramley explained the City did an assessment , and the damage assessment is part of the day after. They started in the afternoon the day after the storm , which was Wednesday afternoon; they went through those areas , flooded areas , structure to structure and reported out through the Regional Operations Center what they saw as far as damage assessment. Staff thinks they have captured everyone and if they missed anyone , they will circle back and report for them as well. Commissioner Gow inquired about the anticipated damage in low-lying areas and whether or not there were areas that were surpr ising in the damage being more than thought. City Manager Bramley advised there were none in that situation and noted the speed of the storm passing was a help in some of the low-ly in g areas . She will be meeting with staff about those low-lying areas and what the City can do moving forward in some of those areas. City Manager Bramley expla ined that now that the City is FEMA-eligible , FEMA reimbursements and aid from the Federal Government is now eligible for individuals , and the City will be pushing out all that information as it is received. 5.d. City Attorney's Update City Attorney Cowan advised : 23-17

Work Session Minutes September 5, 2023 Dunedin City Commission Regarding the question about the votes for the budget that the budget requires a majority vote , it is the millage rate that requires the supermajority vote (4 of the 5 members). Should the supermajority vote not occur for the millage , there is a proposed millage rate already identified ; another millage rate would have to be proposed until there is a supermajority approval. If there is no approval at all on the millage rate , and if there is no consensus on the rate , she believes it stays at what it was ; however , she would have to take a look at that. The rollback-rate is one rate ; when the millage rate is adopted , they always have the City advise as to what the difference is in that versus the roll-back rate , which is what the millage would be to collect the same as what was collected last year. It is changing the Proposed Millage Rate. The roll -back rate is a snapshot in time ; you have the property value of what it was last year and last year 's millage rate that got you a certain amount (X) . Now , the property values have likely increased significantly , so the roll -back rate is what ra te would you need to come back to get back to that certain amount (X). There is a point at which if the millage rate decreases , the vote would no longer need to be 4 of 5; it could be 3 of 5. If it still could not pass at 3 of 5, then she would need to find out what would happen after that. 5.e. Commission Comments Vice Mayor Tornga inquired who was attending the Florida League of Cities event this week and advised he had a car for transportation. Commissioner Gow noted the High School Homecoming coming up on Friday , and discussion ensued regarding possibly helping because of a loss of a float for the parade and the route. Mayor Bujalski advised Visit St. Pete/Clearwater sent an email out to all the hotels , asking them to sign up if they are participating in the FEMA lodging assistance program. Holiday Inn Express does participate and there should be a list coming out. ADJOURN MEETING The Work Ses sion adjourned at 12 :23 p.m .
