Residents ready for Wal-Mart war
From STAFF REPORTS
Somewhere in America, a Wal-Mart store opens almost every day and, if the mega-retail giant and its developers have their way, the City of Titusville's Planning and Zoning Department will soon be approving a conceptual plan for a second Wal-Mart SuperCenter to be built in Titusville.
Satellite image shows proposed 90+ acre parcel Wal-Mart intends to build new supercenter upon, directly across the street from South Lake Elementary School at Garden Street and I-95.
But not if residents can help it.
Hundreds of concerned citizens flocked to Titusville City Council chambers on May 11, to register their strong opposition to Wal-Mart's growing presence in Titusville.
It's not the issue of Titusville getting another Wal-Mart SuperCenter within five miles from the first one, opponents say. It is the location of Wal-Mart's proposed site–a 90-plus acre parcel of land at the I-95 corridor on Garden Street, directly across the street from South Lake Elementary School, and abutting the Tanglewood subdivision off N. Carpenter Road.
Lisa Smith, president of the Tanglewood Homeowners Association, represented her association and other concerned citizens by bringing their collective objections before Council.
Smith contended that Wal-Mart's overwhelming traffic would flood the area's small, crowded roads, restricting access for fire and emergency vehicles, while severely putting children attending South Lake Elementary at risk.
"Is this City ready for the possible toll on children's lives?" questioned Smith. "I think no parent in Titusville or the North County would trade any child's life for a 10-minute faster commute to go to Wal-Mart."
They also staunchly object to Wal-Mart developers wanting to connect an access road to Parkwood Drive in Tanglewood, stressing that the road would allow commercial vehicles to drive right through their residential, child-filled neighborhood.
Another concern brought before Council was the issue of crime Wal-Mart could bring to the area. In the past two years, Titusville Police Department has responded to 1,974 times to the Wal-Mart supercenter on Cheney Hwy. Critics argue the new supercenter should expect the same numbers.
Safety and traffic and crime issues aside, perhaps the most controversial part of Wal-Mart's project is that the new supercenter would be built atop environmentally sensitive land. The proposed Wal-Mart site is on the main water aquifer recharge area for the city's wells.
Although, for this new project, Wal-Mart is proposing to use a special type of porous concrete in construction to allow water to penetrate into the soil, opponents stress that having a Wal-Mart built on this parcel of land would not only jeopardize the surrounding neighborhood's water supply, but the entire city's as well. City Attorney Dwight Severs also pointed out that the old Wal-Mart site at the St. John's Plaza housed a very active well, but deteriorated and was lost.
But, as far as the new project site is concerned, Wal-Mart does not have any zoning requirements to come before Council with, as zoning on the parcel is already in place, so a well-funded coalition of environmental and neighborhood opponents will have to campaign against the supercenter–or any other proposed retailer–to stay off the aquifer recharge area.
By City Council's own admission, the new proposed Wal-Mart property is ill suited for a project of this scope. Although no plans have been formally brought before Council as of yet, council members have stated their dissatisfaction with the plans they have seen and heard of so far, and have directed Severs to attend planning meetings to express Council's concerns to developers, which Severs said he has done in two recent meetings.
Meanwhile, Wal-Mart reps (and opponents) are encouraging residents to turn out for a scheduled June 21 "Town Meeting" at Christ Community Church, 4295 Garden Street, from 6 to 8 p.m., to discuss the Wal-Mart project with store representatives.
Smith intends to be there, along with concerned residents like Arlynn Baker and Jane Francoeur who, along with Smith, recently launched the opposition into full swing by forming a group to collect signatures petitioning City Council to prevent Wal-Mart from building. Hundreds of signatures have been collected so far, and they will be having a petition sign-up drive at the First Church of God, 77 N. Carpenter Rd., on Monday, June 7, from 3 to 8 p.m. (Petitions can also be signed at the North Brevard Beacon office, 4340 S. Hopkins Ave.)
The world's largest retailer–and America's largest private employer– believes North Brevard consumers want their supercenter and their low prices in this location, but it was Sam Walton, founding father of the Wal-Mart empire, who said, "If some community doesn't want us, we aren't going to go in and create a fuss."
We'll see in the weeks and months to come if Wal-Mart executives stay true to Walton's words.
New designs for downtown on the drawing board
...CRA Development Specialist calls for revamped visioning plan
From STAFF REPORTS
Any city government has the rights and power of eminent domain–the right of a government to appropriate private property for public use. A Community Redevelopment Area, or CRA, gives the city eminent domain for private use as well. Parks are created, roads are built or widened, slums are cleared for urban development, etc., all for the public good.
In 1982, a CRA was created in the City of Titusville as a special district that is dedicated to the revitalization of our historic downtown area, and in 1994 a "Master Plan" was created by the CRA to set goals for within the district.
The financing of Titusville's CRA is covered by tax increment financing. The City deposits any increases in taxes within the CRA district into a trust fund for the purpose of redevelopment. The new projects are supposed to drive up the tax base, and can be used only within the CRA district. Currently, about $210,000 is raised annually in the CRA, most of which currently goes to paying off debt on those loans.
And, even though that tax money has been supplemented by almost $3-million in grants and loans since its inception, revenue the CRA has received, when adjusted for inflation, has not gone up as it should have, and a new CRA plan is now needed to boost revenue for the district, and to provide a clear, concise vision–which will create clear, concise regulations–so that everyone knows what is expected in downtown, or any other CRA districts in the future, to balance property owners' rights with community rights, and to become proactive, rather than reactive.
At a special meeting of the CRA Board on May 18, Courtney Harris, who took over as Redevelopment Specialist for the City of Titusville in March 2004, brought the CRA Board up to date on what she has found so far, and recommended some actions that need to be taken if the CRA is to be effective.
"We have a critical turning point in downtown. We have more private investment that's ever wanted to come down here interested in the downtown, but at the same time we have a very unclear focus of what we want it to look like, Harris stated. "We have multiple, outdated plans...unpaved roads, parking lots, no landscaping and dilapidated properties."
Harris, who previously worked on community development in Jacksonville and New Smyrna, pointed out that the current CRA plan is "goal only." No maps, graphics, elevations or conceptual plans are offered. The five plans, (the first 1984 CRA "goal" plan adopted, and four "updates"), are guidelines, not law. Somewhere along the way the plan fell short, and this seems to be part of the problem.
A CRA is intended to circumvent land speculators and slum property owners from "sitting" on blighted properties, waiting for land values to rise before selling them off or developing them themselves. But a weak CRA, unable to enforce its agreements with developers, can do more harm than good. A developer can obtain land from the city and build whatever he wants if the CRA law has no teeth for enforcement. For example, the Space Walk of Fame, and Space View Park are nearly 100% completed, but 80% of the projects had not been developed as originally outlined by the developers to the CRA staff.
Under Harris' direction, the CRA is already in the process of creating an "existing conditions analysis," and is now developing recommendations for separate sectors, as well as in the context of the entire city.
Harris and City staff will also handle putting the CRA master plan together, however, the CRA Board did approve to set aside $40,000 to hire an outside consultant to create maps and graphics needed to illustrate the master plan.
"Downtown is everybody's neighborhood," is how Harris puts it, and before approval of any CRA visioning plan is approved, two public hearings will be required. In addition, to get a better understanding of what citizens of the community envision for the downtown area, the CRA plans to host community workshops to gain a collective understanding of what the downtown Titusville should look like in 10 to 15 years.
Architectural design standards, streetscapes, traffic calming and magnet activities were already mentioned as ongoing concerns by the Historic Titusville Association, the new cooperative organization formed to promote the historic character and encourage business growth within the CRA district.
Board Member, and City Councilman, Conrad Eigenmann called for yearly review of CRA projects, "Not sporadic oversight– dynamics change," he stated. Another Board Member, Dr. Greg Aker went even further, calling for quarterly review of the projects.
The new CRA master plan is estimated for completion in February or March of 2005.

EDITORIAL
On Memorial Day, we honor those who lost their lives fighting for freedom and rights
By Andrew Bernstein
Memorial Day is a solemn and sad occasion honoring the American soldiers who lost their lives in war. But it is also a hallowed day–because the values those men fought to defend form the essence of our country: freedom and the rights of the individual.
The United States has never fought a war of conquest. The Revolutionary War was waged to gain freedom from the tyranny of King George. The Civil War was fought to end slavery in this country. The Americans defended liberty in World War Two against the murderous collectivism of the Nazis. Even the Spanish-American War was fought against the brutal colonialism of the Spanish Empire, with the eventual result of Spain's former possessions gaining greater freedom.
The greatest soldiers of American history knew that freedom was sacred; no price paid on its behalf was a sacrifice. George Washington, as commander of the Continental Army, led the way. Despite his years of struggle, and the hardships endured, Washington refused pay for his service. He used his own fortune to help finance the war effort and, when the Revolution was won, took no money from Congress to help with the much-needed rebuilding of his Mount Vernon estate. General Washington recognized that freedom from tyranny was its own reward. His stirring words to Joseph Reed make clear his (and his compatriots') reasons for waging the Revolutionary War: "The spirit of freedom beat too high in us to submit to slavery."
Douglas MacArthur–another great leader–as military commander of occupied Japan, made it his highest priority to establish the post-war Japanese government and economy on the principle of political/economic freedom. The relative liberty and prosperity of Japan's newly semi-capitalist system owe much to MacArthur's wisdom and efforts. Observing the fruits of his labor, he stated before Congress that America's former enemies had "from the ashes left in war's wake, erected in Japan an edifice dedicated to the primacy of individual liberty...freedom of economic enterprise, and social justice." General MacArthur recognized that part of America's real victory in the Pacific was Japan's vastly increased freedom.
Regular American soldiers have fought and died for freedom around the globe. South Korea today is free, not a part of North Korea's murderous dictatorship, because U.S. soldiers helped defeat Communist aggression in the Korean War. Similarly, as long as American soldiers fought in Vietnam, the Communists were held at bay, unable to achieve their goal of conquest. Only after American politicians pulled all U.S. military personnel out of Vietnam in 1975 did the country fall, and the Communists, then unrestrained, enslaved the Vietnamese.
To fully appreciate the virtue of our soldiers we must remember what freedom means. It means we can choose our own fields of study, our own careers, our own spouses, the size of our families, and our places of residence. It means we can speak out without fear regarding any issue–including governmental policy–and choose our values, without interference from the state.
Freedom is based on the inalienable right of each individual to pursue his own goals and his own personal happiness. During America's Revolutionary period, one New Hampshire state document summed up the thinking of our Founding Fathers regarding an individual's rights, "among which are the enjoying and defending life and liberty; acquiring, possessing and protecting property; and in a word, of seeking and obtaining happiness." This is the principle–and the spirit–that our soldiers defend.
The meaning of Memorial Day is particularly pressing today when the United States is engaged in a war against fanatics who represent the extreme of intellectual, religious, and political suppression. Freedom is unknown and utterly alien in the countries that support terrorists. They feel threatened by our most cherished principles and institutions, and so they seek to destroy us. Our soldiers who fought so courageously and so effectively against the Taliban and Saddam Hussein helped to overthrow both of those brutal dictatorships while defending the lives and freedom of American civilians.
What protects us is our moral courage and our military might. If President Bush has the moral conviction to permit our soldiers to fully wage war against our enemies, they will prevail, as they have so many times in the past. On Memorial Day we solemnly and properly honor those heroes who have fought and died in defense of America's freedom.

Wrong in submerged land prediction, but not disappointed
By FRED KRUPSKI
If you are old enough to remember the old football fight song about the Wynsocki team, then you now know that our city council can't be accused of knuckling, or buckling down on the debate about this issue: By a 4-0 vote, Council did not buckle down to pressures and gave property rights its due.
At issue was whether or not to continue to include submerged lands when deciding how much density developers can figure when using underwater property to build upon, or, more simply, to factor in when submitting building plans on the Indian River Lagoon.
I really believed that private property rights would go out the window and an ordinance would be passed by a narrow vote. Councilmember Chris Broome was not in attendance at this meeting, but it would have made no difference, whatever his vote. But I did believe the mayor would have voted to stop the practice–and until the 11th hour, I believe he did also.
Actually, the vote was a no-brainer. When people purchased the property, they were guaranteed they had a right to use underwater property in density computation– to be exercised at some later date (some argue about how long they could wait to develop), and a number of citizens lobbied to remove that legal right. The good news is that no longer can a small pressure group affect the outcome of decisions by a cadre of councilmen who understand that owners have the right to control and use as he sees fit, particularly when the section in the code allows the practice.
To arbitrarily reverse this when owners have already paid taxes on the land, have made plans for the property and invested thousands to develop the property, such as the case with Kennedy Point Yacht Club, would be a travesty. Even a couple of Council's most severest critics on almost every other issue had to agree that private property rights are inviolate.
...Speaking of property, development and keeping with the character of a neighborhood, those involved with future planning could take a page from the book of developer EKS. What they're doing at La Cita is a model for all builders.
Clearing is now underway under the high tension power lines off Muirfield Drive to provide for vehicle and utility access to the new Fairways Edge community, a development consisting of nine lots in the wooded area between fairways four and eight. So far, eight of the nine lots have already been sold. The acreage to the south of the Villas apartments on Oakhill Drive has been purchased by Con Dev Homes of Winter Park. They plan a development of 50 patio-style homes (yes, patio homes that have been a dirty term at recent council meetings) with an entrance on Oakhill. Permitting is in process and ground clearing is expected to begin in a few weeks.
The jewel will be the five + acre hilltop at the corner of Oakhill Drive and Raney Road. Initial construction will consist of five upscale homes along Oakhill Drive in the $400,000 to $600,000 range, and are being built by the Arthur Rutenberg Company out of Orlando. Approximately 10 additional homes sited on the hilltop, in the $300,000 to $400,000 bracket, are also planned. They will be accessed via a circular roadway with a walled entry off of Raney Road.
There's more...progressing rapidly are sales and construction of new homes in Village Woods by Mercedes Homes and Joyal Construction Company is moving along. All but two of the Mercedes lots on the east side of La Cita Lane are sold. About 25 percent of the Joyal home sites on the west side of La Cita Lane have been purchased.
When you engage the right builders, instead of those who take the money and run, you have good development and neighbors– and in the La Cita development, every property owner is a winner, with property values going through the roof.Recipe for suicide
Unlike my wife, who reads a newspaper selectively, I, on the other hand, read every word. It doesn't matter. I just don't want to miss anything.
But I could have just as easily missed the following recently and not have gotten nauseous. It was in the County Restaurant Inspection reports.
A Japanese "Cuisine" joint in Rockledge. What grabbed my immediate attention was the length of the report and the number of violations: 56! They weren't minor either. Example: Potentially hazardous food held at uncalibrated temperatures, either too low or too high; food stored on the dirty floor; dirty aprons stored in ice machine; toaster oven stored under sink drain pipe; in-use utensils not stored on a clean portion of food preparation; food service workers with "unrestrained" hair; coverings broken and cracked; no chemical test kits; wet wiping cloths laying around; mold buildup inside ice dispenser; wastewater on ground of restaurant; water drain into restroom and sushi sink from air-conditioning unit; dumpster overflowing garbage; outer openings not protected and vermin present at back door; ceiling soiled with accumulated spider webs in storage room; personal care items stored with food; exit door locked in dining room; poor electrical wiring and water heater not connected while on; electrical box blocked by clothes; employees not informed of proper procedures of dishwashing, etc., etc., etc. There was much more, but I don't think you want to know.
In Titusville, I know that when some restaurant owners receiving a couple of minor complaints go ballistic. The moral here is when you enter a place you're a bit suspicious of, ask if you can inspect the kitchen before you order.
If they object, get the hell out in a hurry...
IT'S MY TURN
By BOB SOCKS
The City of Titusville is making a push to spruce up the old downtown portion of Titusville. In the works is a large stormwater lake where McCotter's Motors used to be, all landscaped with a fountain in the middle and a sidewalk around the perimeter. There is also a facade grant to allow building owners to fix up the front of their buildings and get remuneration from the city for their efforts.
In addition, the condos of Harbor Towne are under construction, and within the next several years there will be 210 expensive condos completed and a number of well-healed families will be living downtown. It's really quite exciting as the downtown dreams become reality.
But more is needed.
If Titusville is going to develop a core center, I have some ideas to help start it off, bringing people downtown on a regular basis. As more people come downtown for various reasons, business will take notice and they will follow.
- Bring back the farmers market, on Saturday mornings. Set up on East Broad Street.
- Small entertainment venues at Space View Park every Saturday night. Use local bands, rock, blues, jazz and allow the bands to play for an hour or so in the early evening. Usually they will play for free for exposure–and bring lots of followers with them.
- Several arts and crafts shows on the streets of downtown Titusville, such as Cocoa Village has. It may start small, but should get larger as time goes on.
- Boat show at Space View Park. Both static and in water, using the dockage we have available would bring boat dealers, equipment, banks, insurance, maybe a water ski show. Make it a weekend event with food vendors, bands, street people etc.
- Bring back the monthly car show, cruise-in. All of the surrounding communities have them and they seem to be very popular, with a large following.
- Wind-surfing festival, skateboard festival, kite-flying festival... The vision of downtown is that of a city center–an area where all the citizens and guests of Titusville come to eat, meet and be entertained.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Fly right!
Our troops are in Iraq and Afghanistan fighting–and dying–so you and I can have our freedom. No matter what your political or religious thoughts are, we all fly the American flag at our homes and/or businesses.
Our men are fighting to protect that flag, and so should we. The least we can do is look at our flag daily to see if it is fit to fly.
If it is torn, worn or faded, replace it as soon as possible, or call the American Legion Post 1 at 269-9959, and we will see if we can replace it with a used, but serviceable one.
Support our troops!
Bob and Cyndi DeTorres, Titusville
Be on the lookout...
Recently, I received an anonymous tip that the Gold Star Mothers' plaque, missing from the Veterans Memorial Fishing Pier in Titusville, was hidden somewhere at Veterans Memorial Park. The caller said that the culprit was going to steal plaques there, too, but got spooked and threw the plaque in the bushes.
I didn't find the missing plaque at the park, but what I did find was the American Flag and MIA/POW flag cut down from the "Old Glory" flagpole (see photo).
The police were called, and I was allowed to take the flags home for safe keeping until I could give them back to the City the next morning. Fortunately–this time–they have been returned. But what about the next time?
Our men and women are dying in Iraq and Afghanistan for this country's "War on Terrorism." How could someone in our community hate American Veterans so much that they would attack our memorial plaques, parks, and flags? I hope law enforcement officers find them before I do. A tongue lashing is not enough for them. A slow boat to Cuba–where they can try something like that on Castro–would be more like it.
Police cannot protect out memorials and flags all the time. So, I'm asking the community to keep their eyes open for anyone suspicious around our places of honor. This disgraceful person or group must be found–and stopped!
