NEW REGULATION

The City Council directed the city manager to negotiate with ATS.

County OKs vacation rental ordinance

Red light cameras to drop from 43 to 5?

When Palm Coast’s City Council created its red-light camera program, there was little opposition. City meeting minutes from the years leading up to the program’s 2008 birth recount public comment periods

in which residents bemoaned repeated traffic crashes, and some spoke of their willingness to even pay more in taxes for a camera program that would lead to safer intersections.

Now, after years of increas-

ingly vocal opposition, dramatic changes in the state law governing red-light cameras — the Mark Wandall Traffic Safety Act, passed in 2010 — and nu-

Superintendent Jacob Oliva tried to put Sims’ award in context for the school district. “Any time we can recognize one of our own and give them a pat on the back, we want to do that. But when an outside group does it, it makes it even more special.”

Shott said Sims has made a big difference at FPC with regard to advanced placement courses.

Many students who could have qualified for AP classes based on their test scores weren’t taking advantage of the opportunity. So, Shott said, Sims “set

Best in state: Dusty Sims Flagler Palm Coast’s Sims was named Assistant Principal of the Year. ment Award in a Feb. 23 Commissioner’s Summit for Principals Awards Luncheon, in Lake Buena Vista.

“I am honored to be recognized among outstanding peers, and I have a great appreciation for Flagler County Schools,” Sims said in his acceptance speech. “I will never forget the lesson taught to me my first year in administration by Superintendent Oliva: ‘Managers manage things, leaders lead people.’

I have tried my best to follow that lesson and allow myself each day the privilege of leading others by serving them.”

The version of the ordinance passed Feb. 19 is more lenient than the November version.

The fight over the regulation of short-term vacation rentals in Flagler County ended quietly the evening of Feb. 19 with the County Commission’s passage of a vacation rental ordinance after about 45 minutes of public comment.

Only about a dozen people during the meeting’s public comment period, most in favor of the ordinance — a contrast with the last time the county held a public meeting about the ordinance on Nov. 3, when vacation rental owners showed up to say the ordinance was too restrictive and infringed on their property rights.

In the interim between the two meetings, at the County Commission’s request, county staff revised the proposed ordinance, loosening some of the requirements that had concerned rental owners.

“We did lessen restrictions,” County Administrator Craig Coffey told commissioners at the hearing. “And we probably made both sides unhappy, which means we’re probably closer to a balance.” County staff held 10-15 meetings with residents, he said.

Residents, many of them from the Hammock area, told commissioners how the rentals had disrupted their lives. One woman read a letter from another who’d had her home on the market for about two years, but seen buyers pull out when they came to the house and saw the “commotion” from the rental next door. In the meantime, she said, renters’ children ran through her plants, and their pets ran between the houses and relieved themselves in her yard.

At a party Feb. 24 back at the high school to celebrate his Florida Assistant Principal of the Year award, Dusty Sims was humble and grateful.

“Flagler County schools have raised me,” he said. “They have taught me the value of the people you work with and to always take stock in your people and ask them, ‘What do you need?’

‘What makes them tick?’” he said in front of family and friends. ““And I hope that I’ve been able to do that. But above that and beyond that I’ve also worked in a district that’s done that for me.”

NOT OVER YET

citizens speak up By Jonathan Simmons | News Editor

Jonathan Simmons | News Editor

County attorney responds to allegations Overall, 79% of people taking the survey in Palm Coast reported that city is a good or excellent place to retire.

Survey: Residents love city’s look But, residents worry about the Palm Coast economy, with many economic categories rating below the national average.

Palm Coast residents rate the city as a good place to live and appreciate its trails and bike paths, but give it low ratings for employment opportunities, overall economic health, street lighting and traffic signal timing, according to results of a newly released citizen survey.

The 2014 National Citizen Survey Community Livability Report for Palm Coast, based on a sample of 361 residents, treats eight areas of community life: safety, mobility, natural environment, built environment, economy, recreation and wellness, education and enrichment, and community engagement.

Palm Coast residents’ responses to specific questions in those overall areas led to overall category ratings similar to national benchmarks in all but one category — economy — in which residents rated the city lower than national benchmarks.

About 79% rated the city as an excellent or good place to retire — a percentage that is above national benchmarks — and 84% rated the city’s overall appearance as good or excellent — also above national benchmarks. A total of 68% rated the city as a good or excellent place to raise children, a percentage that is below national benchmarks.

(See the box on the right for the full list of categories that

were above and below national benchmarks.)

The survey also demonstrated changing perceptions over the years.

The percentage of residents who gave Palm Coast positive ratings for paths and walking trails rose from 49% in 2008 to 81% in 2014.

Ratings for traffic flow were 11% positive in 2005, 12% positive in 2006, then rose gradually to a high of 60% positive in 2012. Now the rating is 47% positive.

About 38% of respondents gave the city positive ratings for recreational opportunities in 2002. That dropped to 29% in 2006 then rose over the years to 67% in 2014.

The percentage of residents who gave the city government positive ratings in the category “welcoming citizen involvement” 61% in 2004, then fell to 49% in 2005. It was 39% in 2012, 48% in 2013 and 38% in 2014.

Only 18% of residents gave the city positive ratings for street repair in 2003 and, the same year, 18% also gave it positive ratings for street lighting.

In 2014, 63% of residents surveyed gave Palm Coast positive ratings for street repair, and 45% gave the city positive ratings for street lighting.

Cleanliness of the natural environment received high marks: 85% of the responses were positive, which is above the national benchmark.

SURVEY RESULTS

The National Citizen Survey report is about the desirability of living in of Palm Coast. According to the report: “Great communities are partnerships of the government, private sector, community-based organizations and residents, all geographically connected. The NCS captures residents’ opinions within the three pillars of a community (Community Characteristics, Governance and Participation) across eight central facets of community (Safety, Mobility, Natural Environment, Built Environment, Economy, Recreation and Wellness, Education and Enrichment and Community Engagement). The Community Livability Report provides the opinions of a representative sample of 361 residents of the city of Palm Coast. The margin of error around any reported percentage is 5% for the entire sample.”

The survey asked residents whether they would rate various aspects of the community positively, and then it compares the percentage of positive answers with the national averages for other communities.

Hadeed: Weeks based part of her complaint on a recording that ‘had significant portions of discussions erased, including portions that were embarrassing to her.’

County Attorney Al Hadeed has called a Florida Bar complaint against him initiated by former elections supervisor Kimberle Weeks “an across the board attack” on his actions as county and Canvassing Board attorney, saying a key part of it is based on an altered audiorecorded conversation.

Weeks filed the bar complaint against Hadeed Dec. 17. She was, and still is, under investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, officials confirmed Feb. 20.

In Hadeed’s formal response, released through the county’s communications office Feb. 23, Hadeed said “records demonstrate that the alleged facts are misstated and mischaracterized and that material facts are omitted” in Weeks’ complaint, part of which centers around a conversation between Hadeed and County Commissioner Charlie Ericksen that Weeks recorded without either man’s knowledge last year.

On Aug. 25, the Canvassing Board convened in one room, then moved to the adjacent room to tabulate ballots while Hadeed stayed in the first room. Ericksen walked in. Weeks had left her iPhone in the room; it recorded the men’s conversation.

In a transcript of the recording in both Weeks’ complaint and Hadeed’s response, Hadeed tells Ericksen he’d once seen a “former, former county commissioner” reading ballots, and told him to stop. Weeks’ complaint accused Hadeed of covering for the former commissioner.

Hadeed said in his response that he’d notified the then-elections supervisor of the issue.

But the copy of the audio tape provided to Hadeed and others omits portions of the conversation, Hadeed said. The two men were discussing ballot secrecy, Hadeed said, because Weeks had just angrily barred FlaglerLive.com Editor Pierre Tristam from the ballot tabulating room in a scene Hadeed described in his response as “the most tension-filled event experienced by the Respondent up to that time in the election process. ... The action was extreme enough that Respondent was pondering some forms of intervention if the situation deteriorated.” At one point, responding to Tristam’s request that Weeks cite a legal justification for barring him from the public meeting, “she yelled into his face, ‘It’s my law,’” Hadeed wrote. That altercation, along with Ericksen and Hadeed’s initial discussion of it, was not on the audio tape, Hadeed said, and he was therefore not able to include a transcript of the beginning of his conversation with Ericksen in his response to Weeks’ bar complaint. But, Hadeed wrote, in his conversation with Ericksen, he “was using this prior incident to stress the importance of the secrecy of the ballot.”

There were other complaints in the document Weeks sent to the bar, and other responses from Hadeed.

RED LIGHTS / FROM PAGE 1 merous lawsuits about the cameras throughout the state, Palm Coast is considering reducing the number of its redlight cameras from 43 to five, or perhaps 10. (See the box on Page 5 for locations.)

City Council isn’t seriously considering ditching the program altogether for fear of a breach-of-contract lawsuit by camera company American Traffic Solutions, which, City Attorney Bill Reischmann said, would fight a termination or suspension “as vigorously as they possibly could,” in part because the outcome of the current wrangling between ATS and Palm Coast could affect what happens in other cities that have contracts with ATS. The option to amend the city’s contract with ATS by reducing the number of cameras or the length of the contract was one of three options City Planner Beau Falgout presented to the City Council at a Tuesday, Feb, 25 workshop.

The other possibilities were keeping the camera program as it runs currently — not a feasible option, because a recent court decision makes part of the city’s process illegal — or scrapping it entirely.

“I personally don’t want to bear the wrath of a company that size attempting to survive a market,” said Councilman Steven Nobile, historically an outspoken camera opponent.

“I like the concept of five cameras, a two-year reduction of the contract, and maintaining our income.”

Falgout had noted in his presentation that reducing the number of cameras and reducing the length of the contract would cut the city’s revenue. With its 43 cameras, the city makes about $361,200 per year from a flat $700-per-camera-per-month payment. With

that as his focus and met with the kids in small groups, pulling in community menebers to be a part of it. We also focused on minority students who were underrepresented. The NAACP came in and met with students, and previous AP teachers. ... And we were able to significantly increase the number of students in those classes.”

Sims, Shott said, was insturmental in pulling the community together to make a difference. “He’s the kind of person who motivates others to follow him,” she said. “If Dusty leads a charge up the hill, there’s going to be a whole army following him.”

At the FPC party Feb. 23, Sims reflected: “I get up every day, sometimes tired,

Councilman Steven Nobile 10, it would make $84,000; with five, $42,000.

“Our time is going up, our revenue is going down with this proposal,” City Manger Jim Landon said. “ATS’s time would go down substantially, and their revenue would stay the same.”

And the city would likely only be able to get ATS to reduce the length of the contract by one or two years — it’s now set to expire in 2019 — by agreeing to collect no flat fee from the cameras, Falgout said.

Meanwhile, the city would have to spend at least as much staff time on the program as it does now: A recent court decision in a case from the city of Hollywood renders illegal the process of using camera companies like ATS — instead of government employees — to send out Uniform Traffic Citations, the $264 fine sent to drivers who failed to pay an initial $158 ticket. Only city employees could legally send them out, which would mean increasing staff time dramatically unless the city cut into the program.

Even with just five cameras, city staff would spend about the same number of work hours per week that they do now: 25. In 2014, Landon said, ATS reviewed 132,000

FROM THE CITY COUNCIL MINUTES ON FEB. 17, 2004:

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF PALM COAST, FLORIDA, RELATING TO THE PERMITTED USE OF AUTOMATED CAMERA ENFORCEMENT OF RED LIGHT VIOLATIONS ON THE STREETS AND THOROUGHFARES OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. PUBLIC COMMENTS Jerry (last name unknown): Read about this in the paper and it excited him. Since he moved here he has been told this is a micro-city. It really tickled him that it was a consideration. He goes to a stop light and there was a police officer over on the other side heading east and traffic is making left towards Wal-Mart, light changed red and traffic kept coming. Police officer just sat there, but like you said there were eight or nine people who ran the red light. He would volunteer his own time to go to the insurance companies to ask for help in funding this, because it will save them a ton of money. He’ll spend tax money to save a life.

Raleigh Stockton: Civic Association supports this measure because anything that will save a life in this City, they are willing to do.

Bob Crocetta: He is for this, but we need to make sure that our traffic lights go from green, to yellow and then red.

Some of the lights do not give you time to stop. Must make sure that you are giving drivers enough time to stop.

— By Council consensus, staff was instructed to prepare an in depth study on this issue noting additional statistical data, costs, vendors, streets and lights where cameras would be installed and, if possible, a test run to see how this program would work for us. A motion was made by Council Member Netts to approve this resolution Council Member Peterson seconded, with the motion passing 5 to 0.

violations and narrowed those dow to 32,000 for city staff to review. About half of those 32,000 led to violation notices.

But the city has been legally advised that it should review all violations, Landon said, and if it drops to five cameras, those cameras would generate 20,000-30,000 possible violations for city staff to review.

And, to comply with the Hollywood ruling, the city would also have to mail out the UTCs. The work hours are equal.

Unless the city negotiated to retain its monthly camera fee, it would be paying city workers to administer a redlight camera program whose proceeds go exclusively to the state and to ATS.

but there hasn’t been a day in 16 years that I haven’t wanted to go to work.” He added: “My parents taught me the value of people when I was very young. I never once saw my parents bad-mouth a person, treat them poorly, talk negative to them. and I carry that daily with me.”

The state awarded Sims with a $2,500 check, an additional $500 for FPC, a $200 Office Depot Gift Card, and a weekend resort stay at the Disney World.

This is the second year in a row that a Flagler County educator has made the short-list for a prestigious state award.

Belle Terre Elementary School teacher Jill Espinosa was a finalist for the state’s Teacher of the Year award last year.

— Shanna Fortier and Brian McMillan contributed to this story.

Councilman Bill McGuire said he supported the cameras for safety reason, but was willing to be open-minded about reducing or getting red of them.

“I believe that the red light cameras are a good thing for the city; I do not want to see any of them go away,” he said.

But, with the council heading in that direction, he said, he was willing to reconsider.

Council members recommended Landon try to negotiate more favorable terms — something along the lines of Nobile’s proposal — with ATS. He said he’d try.

“There’s some of it I’m very confident I can get accomplished,” he said. “ I’m not sure I can get it all accomplished.”

VACATION / FROM PAGE 1 missioners by County Planning Director Adam Mengel had set the maximum occupancy for the rentals at 10 people in single- and two-family neighborhoods and 16 areas with predominantly greater than two-family units, eliminated a requirement for a landline telephone and eliminated an extra solid waste charge.

Day guests aren’t counted for the occupancy numbers, and rentals are permitted a maximum of two occupants per bedroom, plus two in a common area.

County staff had proposed a 10-year grace period for gradual enforcement of those restrictions, a time period commissioners thought too long.

“They knew that they were doing commercial buildings in a residential neighborhood,” Commissioner Frank Meeker said of “mini-hotel” owners who’d built homes for the purpose of using them as rentals. “I’m not real sympathetic to that.”

County Attorney Al Hadeed said the provision was a way for the county to prevent lawsuits brought under the Bert Harris Private Property Rights Protection Act. The state Legislature, by passing an act allowing the rentals in 2011 and largely barring municipalities and counties from regulating them until it repealed the legislation last year, had “foisted this vested rights issue upon us,” Hadeed said. “That

is the legal landscape we have to work with, and we have to address those vested rights.”

The commission reduced the vesting period to six years, and eliminated a provision that would have allowed it to transfer with the property if the property is sold.

The commission also altered a provision that would have given the new buyers of a rental a year to reapply for a rental certificate, reducing the year-long period to six months.

Violations of the ordinance would accrue over a 36-month period, and the fourth or fifth would trigger a seven-day certification suspension.

Meeker thought that too lenient.

“I don’t know why I’m not at seven days after a second or third violation,” he said.

“I’m wondering if anybody on the board is interested in seeing that cut down some.”

Coffey noted that renters can have bad tenants, and that successive violations do incur fines. “The suspension of a vacation rental certificate is a very hard penalty,” he said. “ ... We’re trying to put this in there to be serious about it, but we’re really not trying to go down this road in an expedited manner. ... We hope we never have to go down this road.”

The commission voted for the ordinance 4-0. Commissioner Charlie Ericksen missed the meeting because he is recovering from surgery.

One of my favorite memories associated with Carl Laundrie, who retired this week after 27 years at the News-Journal and then the past 11 years as the Flagler County communications manager, is a memory when he was actually not in the room.

It was in August 2013, right after he had nearly died: He had a seizure that caused him to steer his Ford Escape into a retention pond near the Emergency Operations Center.

Thanks to the brave efforts of five county employees, he was pulled out of the pond and recovered completely.

Days later, our ofBRIAN fice passed around a MCMILLAN card to wish him well, and when it got to me, I couldn’t help but notice the irony of the cartoon-style picture on the inside of the card: It was a view from under the surface of the water, with and some kind of pun about fish or frogs.

For a second, I questioned whether we should really send the card. Obviously whoever bought the card hadn’t realized that we were sending it to someone who nearly drowned? But then I remembered to whom we were sending the card, and suddenly it seemed perfect. Carl is someone who loves to laugh, and if no one else is telling jokes, he’s more than happy to tell a joke on himself. The next time I saw him, he was laughing about his “wrong turn” into the pond. In fact, for his retirement, he was given a sign that is now at his house, but he said it could someday end up at the scene of the accident; it says, “Lake Laundrie.”

To honor Carl for his decades of community involvement and service, I also asked for some stories from his son, Carl William Laundrie III, or as his friends call him, Willy. Now 36 years old, Willy had a different perspective on the crash. He said his father is so frugal and was such a good mechanic that he always drove cars that were paid off.

“My mom (Wanda Laundrie) and dad didn’t buy their first brand new car until I was 30,” Willy said. “I think they hated car payments so much that Dad intentionally drove into that retention pond.”

Carl laughed about that too, but, being a former newspaper editor, he had to set the record straight. The Escape was brand new when he bought it in 1998, but it was paid off, or close to it, by the time it was crashed. The replacement for the Escape?

Carl bought his next car from Willy, in cash. No payments.

“He doesn’t have to have something that’s brand new,” Willy said. “He’s happy being who he is. Not a lot of people are like that in today’s society: It’s about what you have. And with my parents, it’s not about that. It’s about good relationships and good friends and family.”

Harmless, but smart as can be

Carl Laundrie was one of the first people I met when I moved to Palm Coast in 2010 to help launch the Observer. He brought me into his office and gave me a whirlwind tour of the county offices. Little did I know that this was the guy who knew everything, the guy who for decades had written a slice-of-life newspaper column called “This Week,” a column that County Commissioner Frank Meeker later told me he always loved to read, even though

Meeker didn’t understand everything in it when he first moved here from the north.

“Crackers, up in Wisconsin, are things that you eat with cheese,” Meeker said.

Carl has salt-and-pepper hair and a full beard and is not one for pleasantries. He usually answers the phone by saying only two words: “Communications, Carl.” He is also not one for fancy clothes or gadgets; as his son points out, “He’s probably one of the only (public information officers) who still had a flip phone.”

Meeker said Carl Laundrie’s unassuming demeanor reminds him of Peter Falk playing Columbo. “The thing about Columbo was he looked harmless, but he was as smart as he could be,” Meeker said.

One of the reasons behind his nononsense work ethic is that he has been through it all before. Whereas today, setting legislative priorities is an exercise in formality, with officials visiting from Tallahassee and local officials meeting in the Government Services Building, one of the first legislative priorities meetings he covered took place at the parking lot of Charlie T’s truck stop. Flagler County’s Lewis Wadsworth came prepared only with some notes on a pad. Carl was the only other person in attendance.

When I asked three commissioners (Meeker, Barbara Revels and Nate McLaughlin) about Carl’s impact on the community, they all said he provided invaluable historical perspective because he had been there to experience it all.

“At town hall meetings, you can’t take enough documents with you, and there could be a citizen there to ask you a question,” Revels said, “and (Carl) can keep a commissioner from stepping in a pot of doo. ‘In 1982, they did this because of this.’ And he’s usually spot on with that information. He’s a huge assistant in keeping things correct, so commissioners and other staff members can move forward with the proper knowledge.”

beach cleanups, organized the annual Creekside Festival, helped McLaughlin with Pinewood Derbies, played guitar for his church (Flagler Beach United Methodist Church) every week, participated in mentorship programs and Chamber of Commerce activities.

And he was heavily involved all while managing three full-time reporters and 25 correspondents as the bureau chief, a job that kept him so busy that he described it to me as “an octopus, with lots of tentacles.” He worked a lot of hours, covering government meetings and elections after dinner, because he was passionate about the community.

He said Flagler County was so small when he first moved here in 1978 — about 5,000 residents — that he had no choice but to be involved. “You’re among them,” he said. “Even if you didn’t join organizations that you felt mattered, you would still be within reach of everyone in the community.” He said the Flagler Palm Coast High School graduating class that included his daughter Tara was just 65 students. On Friday nights, he said, “you would go to the football stadium, and you’d know everyone in the stadium.”

Carl taught me the saying that a community newspaper should print a picture of every resident once a year. It’s an impossible goal, but it has been helpful to me as a way to think about how we can make the Palm Coast Observer’s slogan come to life: You. Your Neighbors. Your Neighborhood.

There is a lot of doom and gloom surrounding the newspaper world because the Internet is gobbling up more and more of the advertising revenue. But community newspapers will always survive, according to Carl. Where else can you get reports of birthday parties and government meetings and Little League games?

“If print doesn’t do it, who’s going to do it?” he said. “Who’s going to be there?”

‘Within reach of everyone’

‘A lifestyle’

Willy Laundrie told me a story about coming home from school one day and finding an unusual sight: There, in front of his family’s house, on John Anderson Drive, was a fire truck. The only way to the beach side in those days was a drawbridge over the Intracoastal Waterway, and the bridge was being repaired. So the Flagler Beach Fire Department kept a fire truck at the Laundrie home, in case there was a fire on the west side of town.

Why? Because Carl was a volunteer firefighter for more than a dozen years — all while he was a reporter and bureau chief.

In fact, by the time he resigned in about 1993, he had risen to the rank of assistant chief at the Fire Department. Not a typical hobby for a journalist, but it was just one of the many ways Carl was fully embedded into the community.

One philosophy in the news business is that you need to keep professional distance from the sources so that you don’t compromise your objectivity. Another school of thought is that you should get as involved as possible to know what really matters to the community. Carl subscribed to the latter view. In addition to being a firefighter, he has been a longtime member of Rotary, volunteered with

Now 67, Carl plans to take it easy for a while in his retirement. He told Willy his agenda for his first day off was simple: “absolutely nothing.”

But is that really true? Not for Carl.

“I’ve been splitting wood the last couple of days,” he told me. He had a log splitter and had taken down a handful of oak trees for a reason that only Carl would say in a matter-of-fact way: “I had to widen my driveway, to make sure an ambulance can get in.” Apparently, the driveway of his home out in the country in west Flagler is too narrow for an ambulance, and, as he said, he’s getting older, so this is the kind of thing you have to prepare for.

Then he quipped: “I hope next winter is a cold winter because I’ve got a lot wood.”

But I don’t think Carl Laundrie will become a hermit out in the sticks. Flagler County has been in his blood ever since he moved here, and he won’t be able to keep away from the “action” of a growing, but still small, community. In the end, he’s still a storyteller.

“To tell a story about the community, you had to be a part of the community,” Willy said of his father’s journalism philosophy. “That’s a lifestyle. That’s not something that’s going to go away.”

It started raining, so he stayed, not wanting to ride in the rain. When he returned for the trailer at about 5 p.m., it was gone. He checked with a property manager, who said he had not seen it, then called deputies Feb. 18. The trailer, which is white with black trim and can be pulled by a bicycle or a scooter, was worth about $400.

A deputy investigating the crime found a nut and on the ground by the steel post that had held the 30 mph sign.

Neighbors said they hadn’t seen anything suspicious, and one told the deputy the speed limit sign had been missing for at least three weeks.

City officials told the deputy that the speed limit sign was worth about $100, and the street signs were worth about $400 each.

Battery. A local parent called the Sheriff’s Office at about 7 a.m. to say someone was shooting paintballs at kids waiting at a school bus stop.

Another parent, a 37-year-old woman, called in with the same complaint while the first caller was still on the line.

By the time a deputy got to the bus stop, the kids had already boarded the bus and left.

A few hours later, the deputy spoke to the 37-year-old again, and she said she advised she wanted to pursue charges against whoever shot her son with the paintball gun.

He’d come home that day with “several orange paint spots on his clothing,” according to the deputy’s report, and told his mother that he was shot with the paintball gun several times by two people, and that he needed to change.

She said it was not the first time they had shot paintballs at students at the bus stop. She agreed to call the Sheriff’s Office again when her son returned home from school.

Residential burglary. A woman left her Raemoor Drive home at about 1 p.m. to go to a local restaurant, then retuned home an hour later to find that her 32inch TV was stolen.

Her daughter, looking around the house, noticed pry marks at the bedroom window, and a deputy wrote in an incident report that that appeared to be where the thief entered the house. There were boot marks on the ground outside the window, and the screen had been pried open and set on the ground.

But the thief could have had an easier entry: The family had left the front door unlocked so the kids could get inside when they came home from school.

Residents searching the home found that the thief also riffled through a purse, but stole only cigarettes.

One of the residents did some detective work and found what looked like the same TV listed on Swip Swap: It was posted about an hour after the burglary. The deputy uploaded photos of the TV to a database.

The woman, 33, told deputies the last time it happened was sometime between Feb. 13 and Feb. 17. She wasn’t sure how much had been stolen, but said she was clearly missing toolboxes, pictures and other items.

special election By Jonathan Simmons | News Editor

Flagler Votes: The candidates square off Candidates debated the issues at a forum held Feb. 24.

The final candidates for Florida’s Senate District 6 and House District 24 seats debated the environment, gun rights, the economy and more in a Flagler Votes forum at the Flagler Association of Realtors building Feb. 24.

It was the sole time all four candidates — Republican Paul Renner and Democrat Adam Morley, competing for the House District 24 seat, and Republican Travis Hutson and Democrat David Cox, facing off for the Senate District 6 seat — debated together in Flagler County.

Hutson is a second-term House member, Morley a former small business owner, Renner an attorney and Cox an administrator at Bethune-Cookman University.

The rival candidates had clear differences of opinion on major social and policy issues.

One question moderator Howard Holley asked to all four candidates concerned proposed legislation to let people with concealed-carry licenses to carry their firearms on state college and university campuses.

Morley said he was unafraid of firearms. “As a gun owner myself, I’m not afraid of them; I know plenty about them. They can be dangerous, but they can be a tool as well,” he said. “I support commonsense approaches to guns.”

He did not say whether he supported the legislation or not.

“That’s something I would have to see in the future,” he said.

His opponent, Renner, said he believed ”the best way to stop a

bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.” He said if “responsible gun owners” at Florida State University had been allowed to carry their guns when a recent school shooting happened there, it might have ended sooner. “I’m a strong supporter not only of the Second Amendment, but that legislation specifically,” he said.

Senate candidate Hutson said he was a prime co-sponsor of the bill. “We’re talking about gun-free campuses right now — gun free campuses — and individuals are coming in creating these crimes,” he said. “When you have a concealed weapon, and you have a concealed carry, you can actually protect yourself.”

Cox said that as an educator he was “vehemently” against the legislation. “I think that guns have absolutely no place in schools,” he said. He said there had been a nonfatal shooting at his university the previous night that injured several people before it was stopped by security. If more students had been armed, he said, “That situation could have continued to escalate and become the OK Corral.”

In their closing comments, the men touched on issues they thought important: Renner talked about the importance off working across the aisle — citing education reform initiatives as an example — and of having people with real-life experience and leadership in government.

Morley spoke of the importance of stepping up and getting in-

volved in politics. The last question the night asked to the Senate candidates from the prepared list asked if they considered economic development, job growth, and education as the top priorities for Flagler County, and asked them to suggest additional priorities.

Cox mentioned ensuring that social programs like Medicaid and Social Security remain secure, and said the state should accept federal money for the Affordable Care Act. “The program is in place. It’s here … we need to work on funding it. We need those federal funds to come into state,” he said. He also mentioned education, and said he supported the Florida Competitive Workforce

very important. … We’ve got a road about to fall in; we’re about to lose everything there. So we’ve got to come up with some ideas, both locally, state and federal, on how we can solve that issue,” he said.

The former Lehigh Cement property to the west of the Sea Ray plant off Colbert Lane may be developed into a marina resort.

Grand Haven Realty President Jim Cullis is looking at purchasing about 87 acres of property straddling Colbert Lane for an 80-slip marina, hotel and commercial space, he said in an interview Feb, 23.

“The entitlement is in place, and there’s a marina permit in place,” he said.

“The county is working on some things that will help get that done, and we’re going to meet with our neighbors and see what needs they have and what concerns they have, and then plan a mixed-use community.”

The property, about two-thirds of which sits on the east side of Colbert, is zoned for up to 511 residential units, but Cullis said he isn’t planning “nearly that.”

He said he doesn’t anticipate any problems having residential construction close to Sea Ray. “In the past they’ve been concerned about residential folks being too close to the plant, but I think there’s a good way to be a neighbor with Sea Ray; I’ve always

thought that,” he said.

The 7.2-acre marina basin would have 80 wet slips and about 200 dry boat storage spaces, he said, and the proposed hotel would rent out rooms in the price range of $175 per night.

“Right now we have a lot of what I call ‘interstate hotels’ — the Red Roof Inns, and Hilton Garden Inns — and then the Hammock Beach Club. And there’s not really anything in the middle,” he said.

“I still think there’s a middle ground here for a mid-price branded hotel in the $175-a-night range, instead of $75 or $350.”

And, he said, “We’re in a county that literally has no real waterfront development to speak of. If you put your boat in the water, and you want to go our and get dinner, there’s one place to go right now” — Captain’s BBQ, at Bing’s Landing.

Cullis had considered buying the land in 2006 when he worked with LandMar Group, he said. He didn’t, and the bank foreclosed on the would-be seller. The property is now in the hands of a holding company, and the purchase price, Cullis said, “is 20 cents on the dollar to what we were getting it for before.” He would not say what the price was.

“We’re doing the survey and the title work, and then we’ll close pretty quickly,” he said. “Then we’ll go through the study process, come up with a new plan, and vet that with the county and the neighbors Moved and go forward.”

Unpacked Cullis said the closing will be in April.

Michael DeAugustino won his match 1-0, by escaping a lock with a spin move.

FPC wrestling: undefeated for third straight regular season The Bulldogs nearly swept Clay High School 57-7, and finished the regular season 22-0 against single schools, a third consecutive season totaling an astounding 52 wins and zero losses.

Coach Tom Bartolotta credits his team’s maturity for its success. The only meets they didn’t win were tournaments against Lyman and the Flagler Rotary, but they finished second in both.

The Bulldogs have taken care of business individually, which have led to the team’s wins. Jackson Trivett finished the regular season unbeaten in 40 tries, and Alfred ShavJEFF ers only lost once at the DAWSEY Lyman Tournament, although he redeemed it at Rotary. Kaz Maia finished 40-2, Zac Branning 39-3, Evyn Insalaco 40-4 and Jake Dempsey 30-4.

While they have maintained dominance throughout the year, Flagler Palm Coast knows that the brunt of the season is just getting started. FPC will kick off the 3ADistrict 1 tournament Feb. 28, at FPC.

Flagler/Volusia seniors put on show in soccer all-star game

In its inaugural year, the Flagler/Volusia Senior All-Star game goes down to the wire.

Rich Weber, the Flagler/ Volusia Senior All-Star game’s event organizer and Matanzas soccer coach, walked off the pitch, happy for all the seniors who participated in the event and got to showcase their skills for the last time in their high school uniforms Friday, Feb. 20, at the Indian Trails Sports Complex.

“I expected it to be good, and it far exceeded my expectations,” Weber said.

“The level of play was good.

Sometimes, when you get a lot of players in different areas, they don’t play the same styles, but it came together really quick.”

The Dark Uniforms beat the White Uniforms in a highscoring 5-4 exhibition that was decided in the last five minutes.

Flagler Palm Coast’s Nate Monsanto put Dark on the board first with a goal in the first five minutes of the match.

“Being the first scorer of this event felt great,” Monsanto said. “It was also great to go out there and have fun with rivals and the guys I’ve played with over the last four years.”

Pablo Felix

Bryan Mejia The Whites quickly responded with a goal by Taylor’s Christian Ramirez, but the Dark Uniforms led at halftime 4-1, after University’s Asair Casas, Spruce Creek’s Liam Tate and FPC’s Robby Ferguson netted goals.

Coming out the half, the White Uniforms stormed back to tie the game at 4-4, with three goals of the own from Spruce Creek’s Dylan Villalobos, DeLand’s Nate Bodger and Seabreeze’s Brooks Davis, who scored the goal of the night with a volley on a half turn.

In the waning minutes of the second half, all the players on the sidelines thought they’d see more action because, had the game finished 4-4 at the end of regulation, penalty kicks would’ve decided the outcome, but Tate was able to find the back of the net a second time to give the Dark Uniforms the victory.

“Being able to watch all the players at the same time brings all the talent to the light,” said FPC’s coach Reg

Nate Monsanto scored the first goal of the game for the dark team.

Matanzas’ Nick Weber, who finished third in the nation with 31 assists, said, “It feels great to be the first in our area to do something like this. It’s going to be hard to leave all this behind, playing on varsity the past four years.”

FPC takes third in meet Matt Gartner ties a long-standing school record.

This year was the first time the FPC girls program has reached the state Final Four.

FPC reflects on season Despite losing in their last game last Friday, the Lady Bulldogs have set a new standard in Flagler, as the only basketball team to make it to the state Final Four.

Here are a few of their favorite memories from the their unforgettable season: Coach Javier Bevacqua: “Winning the Elite Eight that sent us to the Final Four.

The joy in the players and coaches is unforgettable.”

Tamara Henshaw: “Winning against Orlando Boone and then getting tackled after the game. We were all happy and ready to go to Lakeland.”

Shanika Gardner: “Going on our kayaking bonding trip, where Armani Walker and I nearly flipped out of our boats.”

Christina Aiello: “Just making it to the Final Four at Lakeland and making history as a team.”

Alicia Smith: “Winning the district championship. That was something we wanted to do, and we accomplished that as a team through sacrifice.”

Ronika Gardner: “Practicing. There were serious and funny moments, and I will truly miss the fun times we had practicing together and working hard to accomplish to get to where we ended our season.”

Sada Rowley: “Making it to the Final Four.”

Aryelle Wagner: “Going through the lights with the music playing to get us hyped for the challenge we were about to encounter in our opening home game.”

Armani Walker: “Getting to the Final Four after we got knocked out my sophomore year, and I spent last season injured.”

After a 71-18 season-opening win against Pedro Menendez, the Flagler Palm Coast weightlifting team placed third its meet against winners Spruce Creek, New Smyrna Beach (second) and Seabreeze Thursday, Feb. 19, at FPC. FPC’s Matt Gartner tied Binaire Michel’s eight-year clean-and-jerk school record of 300 pounds, and he benched 295 pounds.

“I had my eyes set on that record ever since I started weightlifting for the school in ninth grade, and it feels good knowing that all my hard work is starting to pay off,” Gartner said. “I just have to come back and actually break it now.

Tying it isn’t enough for me, and it’s also pretty cool because it’s one of the longest standing records at FPC, so I want to break it and set it to where people after me are going to have a hard time breaking it.”

Gartner will get his shot when the Bulldogs welcome University and Warner Christian Thursday, Feb. 26, at FPC.

boom, pow, zap By Shanna Fortier | Community Editor

The Burroughs family is remembering the life of their daughter, Destiny, with the Superhero 5K and Destiny Kids Dash, set for March 7.

A COMMUNITY OF SUPERHEROES The Superhero 5K will celebrate the life of Destiny Burroughs, who died of brochitis at 10 months old.

Her mother said of the community: ‘I’ve never seen such amazing support before.’

Last February, the Burroughs family was struck with tragedy when their 10-month-old daughter, Destiny, died suddenly. But through the struggle, they said they learned about the superheroes they have in their community.

“Destiny was this bubbly, fun, always laughing, always dancing, very happy baby,” said Natalie Burroughs this week, as she sat in her classroom at Palm Coast Community Child Care, where she teaches and where Destiny attended. “Two nights before she passed, she was fine, in perfect health. We were here at the school late, and she was dancing.”

The next day, the infant woke up

At the Race of the Runways last year, Natalie and Anthony Burroughs wore yellow to represent the sunshine their daughter brought to people’s lives.

screaming and throughout the day, she was not eating, not focusing and she became lethargic. Her mother and the school staff made the decision to call an ambulance. While at the hospital, it became clear that her breathing was off; however, none of the tests run came back abnormal. Destiny was discharged and prescribed a nebulizer.

That night, she woke up screaming every hour or so, her parents keeping a close watch on her.

“I got up to go to the bathroom, and by the time I had come back, she had just taken one last big breath,” Natalie Burroughs said, adding that at that point, in shock, they started CPR and called 911.

By the time the doctors at the hospital came out to tell Natalie and her husband, Anthony, that their daughter had died, about 60 people were there with them, praying and ready to help with whatever they needed. Destiny’s death certificate listed the cause as bronchitis.

“Never in a million years would I think that people would show up in numbers like that to make us as comfortable in the moment as possible,” Anthony Burroughs said Monday night. He was wearing a yellow bracelet on each wrist in memory of his little girl.

The day after Destiny’s death, Natalie was scheduled to run Race of the Runways, part of the Palm Coast Running Series. She thought about dropping out, but decided that the race was something she must do for her daughter. She asked for her friends and family to support her decision by wearing yellow, a representation of sunshine and the happiness Destiny brought to the family. Once again, the support was overwhelming, with more than 60 people showing up to walk, run and cheer alongside the Burroughses.

But the support did not stop there.

Natalie and Anthony said that, for the past year, they have been inundated with love and support from their friends and church family; one person brought over 50 rolls of toilet paper to help stock for a house full of out-of-town guests. Someone else paid for six months of tuition for their 3-year-old son, Daniel.

“I’ve never seen such amazing support before,” Natalie Burroughs said.

Superhero 5K

Natalie and Anthony Burroughs and the family at Palm Coast Community Church and Palm Coast Community Child Care wanted to do something to not only remember and celebrate Destiny, but to also celebrate the community members who came together to support everyone during the past year. And so they decided to begin the Superhero 5K Walk/Run and Destiny Kids Dash.

“This time last year was so devastating for us because we were so close to the family because they both work here and attend church here,” said Mary Benvento, director of PC4. “When Destiny died, it was really hard, and to continue running the preschool — we couldn’t have done it without the community.”

The slogan at the preschool is “training the next generation of superheroes,” and Benvento and the Burroughses both said that because the community members were superheroes to them, it made sense to continue the theme into the 5K. The event, which is planned for March 7, will include a timed 5K followed by a fun run for children ages 6 and under and all-day activities for families. Participants are encouraged to dress up like superheroes, as there will be prizes awarded.

“I think it’s more than a race,” Anthony Burroughs said. “You’re going to come for a race, but leave with a family day.”

Destiny Burroughs died Feb. 13, 2014.

The event will not only serve as a fundraiser for the preschool, but will also raise funds for other local families that suffer the death of an infant.

“When Destiny passed, people just wanted to donate and we would love to pass that down and pay it forward for families that can’t afford things like burial,” Natalie Burroughs said. “For me, what’s most important is that it’s a continued effort of support: When big events happen, people rally around you for that moment, and then when the clouds go away, it fades, but it has never faded here.”

+ Cypress Knoll yard honored Edna and Marshall Boyarsky, of Emerson Drive, received the February Selection of the Month award by The Garden Club at Palm Coast.

Their well-maintained yard has a variety of evergreen bushes such as Jack frost ligustrum, viburnum, Schillings holly, tall cedars, bottle brush, and a cluster of pygmy date palms. Hawaiian Ti plants provide color all year. There are also perennials and annuals such as bulbine, African iris, carnations, Bolivian sunset, variegated flax lily and society garlic.

Since the inception of the scholarship program in 1997, the Auditorium Governing Board has award funds to more than 50 students, many of whom now have active careers in the arts as teachers, performers, technicians and administrators. The fund is supported through proceeds from concession sales at the auditorium.

“Anyone who knows me has heard me say that an investment in the arts is an investment in your community,” said Auditorium Director Lisa McDevitt. “We are thrilled to invest in the art students of Flagler County and look forward to hearing of all their success.”

Congressional Art Competition should contact DeSantis’ Washington office at 202225-2706 or visit desantis.house.gov for submission guidelines and criteria.

McKnight touched on the battle and how it related to the book and movie, but the key point that he made to the students was not so much about what happened in Somalia, but rather the importance of integrity, honor and respect. He emphasized to the students that respect must be earned, and that it does not come just because one has a particular rank or job title.

STUDENT ARTIST OF THE MONTH

STUDENT: Abigail Vinnicombe SCHOOL: Flagler Palm Coast High School INSTRUCTOR: Chelsea Schlaffer GRADE: 10 FUN FACT ABOUT YOURSELF: In my spare time, I love to listen to music, drink a cup of tea and doodle in my sketchbook.

INSPIRATION FOR ARTWORK: I like to put my own spin on things I see daily. I try to make people see what I see, through my artwork.

+ Black Hawk Down On Feb. 2, Col. Danny McKnight, who commanded the U.S. Army Rangers during the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu (Black Hawk Down), spoke with the Matanzas High School JROTC cadets and approximately 250 other students and teachers.

Rep. Ron DeSantis and his office are now accepting submissions for the 2015 Congressional Art Competition.

“The Congressional Art Competition is a fantastic opportunity for budding artists,” DeSantis said. “Visitors and I look forward to seeing the district’s creative talents on display in the Capitol and in my district offices each year. With so many talented students, it’s always a challenge to pick a winner, which is why I encourage constituents to vote for their favorite via my Facebook page.”

Entries will be posted on the congressman’s official Facebook page starting Monday, April 6, through Monday, April 13. After the Facebook competition, the 10 submissions with the most votes, or “likes,” will be presented to a panel of community judges at a reception on Saturday, April 18.

The winning art piece will be displayed in the United States Capitol for one year.

The second and third place winners will be displayed in DeSantis’ district offices.

Additionally, the first place winner and one guest will receive transportation to Washington, D.C., to see their art displayed during an unveiling ceremony in June.

+ Flagler Palm Coast dancers take home seven Superiors The Flagler Palm Coast High School Dancers participated in the 6th-annual Florida Dance Performance Assessment Feb. 7, at Howard W. Blake High School, in Tampa, earning seven Superior ratings from the 10 adjudicators, which were all faculty members from the University of South Florida.

“It was a two and a half hour display of strength, skill and knowledge,” said dance director Janice Monsanto. “Our FPC dancers were poised and performed to perfection.”

The FPC team of dancers included Rylee Armstrong, Deja Burkley, Tatiana Colon, John Dudkewic, Alexandra Lojo, Akila Lynch and Brianna O’Brien. The dancers are all enrolled in the dance technique and dance repertory classes taught

by Monsanto with assistance from alumni Christina Stephenson at after school rehearsals.

+ FPC junior among top STEM students honored by Florida Florida’s highest-achieving 11th-grade science, technology, engineering and mathematics students from high schools in Florida’s Northeast and North Central

regions joined their peers from around the state at the 2015 Sunshine State Scholars program Feb. 20, in Orlando.

Flagler Palm Coast High School student Ally Erickson was among the top 11thgrade STEM scholars to participate in the conference.

The Sunshine State Scholars program is made possible by a partnership between the Florida Education Foundation, the Division of Florida Colleges, the State University System of Florida and the Florida Department of Education.

+ Matanzas school-based enterprise achieves gold The school-based enterprise at Matanzas High School was among 285 in the United States achieving Gold Level Certification (or Gold Level Re-certification) this year and will be recognized at DECA’s International Career Development Conference in Orlando. The students who worked on the certification were Jack Havers, Zachary Tyler, and Matthew Crogan with the assistance of their advisor Barbara Tant. The schoolbased enterprise at Matanzas High School has operated for seven years.

A school-based enterprise is an entrepreneurial operation in a school setting that provides goods and services to meet the needs of the market. They are managed and operated by students and integrate national curriculum standards in marketing, finance, hospitality and management.

BUILDING THE CITY By Jeff Dawsey | Staff Writer

Entrepreneur Night unites at Farley’s Over 100 local business owners gathered inside Farley’s Irish Pub to network with other Startup business owners, investors and other entrepreneurs from St. Johns, Volusia and Flagler counties celebrated Entrepreneur Night Feb. 24, at Farley’s Irish Pub, 101 Palm Harbor Parkway.

Attendees were able to make new connections as well enjoy free appetizers from the restaurant. Entrepreneur Night is hosted by a different venue on the last Tuesday of every month except in July, August and December, in Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, St. Augustine, Bunnell or Ormond Beach.

“To be at this event creates the possibility to connect with others under the entrepreneur umbrella,” said Tameka McDowell, one of the local Photos by Jeff Dawsey business owners.

The Palm Coast Fire Department and Palm Coast Professional Firefighters IAFF Local 4807 are joining to bring the Sept. 11 Remembrance Rescue Project — a New York Fire Department vehicle restored and preserved after 9/11 — to Palm Coast in early March.

The nonprofit Remembrance Rescue Project was created by firefighters to restore, preserve and share former FDNY Rescue 4 and Rescue 5 from 9/11 as educational tools, historical artifacts and memorials. A major goal is to help people, especially youngsters, understand the events of Sept. 11, 2001.

The public can visit the Rescue Remembrance Project and see the vehicle at several events. In addition, firefighters will be taking the Project to schools and civic organizations. The schedule is as follows: • 9-11 a.m. and 3-7 p.m. March 3, at the Palm Coast Community Center • 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 4, at Palm Coast Fire Station 25, 1250 Belle Terre Parkway • 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 5, at the Palm Coast Elks Lodge, 53 Old Kings Road N. • 9 a.m. to noon March 6, at Palm Coast Fire Station 25 “The city of Palm Coast is home to thousands of transplants from the Metropolitan New York area, and many of our residents have deep, personal ties to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11,” said Palm Coast Fire Lt. Kyle Berryhill, president of the Palm Coast Professional Firefighters IAFF Local 4807. He said the firefighters are “honored” to host the Project. Call 986-2300.
