11 STREAMLINED PERMITTING To further streamline the permi ng process and ensure it s compe ve advantage, in 2013, the City undertook a comprehensive assessment of its building permit and business tax receipt fee schedules. The assessment resulted in a simplifica on of both fee schedules; a significant reduc on in building permit fees; and the elimina on of several addi onal fees associated with the business tax receipt. Building permit fees based on project valua on realized a reduc on between 50% and 78% for commercial and between 73% and 86% for residen al. Fixed fee permits were reduced, on average, between 25% and 70% depending on the type of permit. The City of Cocoa s dedica on and commitment to an efficient and streamlined development and permi ng process is evidenced by the following designa ons. The Economic Development Commission of Florida s Space Coast (EDC) ini ally awarded the City of Cocoa the S.N.A.P. designa on on May 18, 2011, for demonstrated excellence in streamlining the building and site permi ng process. On August 7, 2013, the EDC of Florida s Space Coast, through its Development Council, recer fied the City of Cocoa as a S.N.A.P. community in recogni on of outstanding efforts in streamlining the building and site permi ng process. S.N.A.P., a program of the EDC, is an acronym for Simplified, Nimble, Accelerated Permi ng and recognizes municipali es that have adopted permi ng best prac ces as determined by the EDC Development Council and par cipa ng municipali es. Over a series of months, the Council developed a best prac ces model for both building and site permi ng and refined it further from input and feedback from Brevard County municipali es. Efficient, streamlined permi ng can enhance a region s ability to a ract new business and investment. It also provides a valuable tool to retain exis ng businesses and encourage expansion in a given region. On December 14, 2012, the Central Florida Partnership s myregion.org cer fied the City of Cocoa as a community that is Open for Business. This ini a ve was designed to iden fy the economic and regulatory barriers to business growth and expansion in Central Florida. With that in mind, it is the goal of cer fied Open for Business governments to streamline building and permi ng processes in order to foster a business climate that encourages development by being more predictable and consistent with the region, as a whole.

14 STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 has been a year rooted in se ng the founda on for a brighter future. Early in 2014 the City ini ated a broad-based strategic planning process involving City employees from all levels of the City, City Council and the community. In advance of a facilitated community visioning mee ng, City staff met over several months evalua ng the City's current Mission Statement, formula ng a set of organiza onal Core Values, and analyzing both our internal and external environments, through a series of SWOC (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportuni es, and Challenges) exercises and facilitated mee ngs. Based on the informa on and data researched and developed, and following community comment and City Council discussion at the community visioning mee ng, City Council determined the most important (strategic) issues in which the City must address over the next 5 years. In no par cular order of importance, with the underlying philosophy that public safety is job number one for the City, the following are the City's strategic issues and the specific ques ons that the City must answer to address the issue: Crime. How will the City con nue to reduce crimes against persons and property to provide an environment where every ci zen, business, and visitor feels safe? Community Development (Redevelopment of the City's Core). How will the City raise the quality of life for all its residents, especially those most vulnerable and disadvantaged? Economic Development. How will the City increase its economic posi on within the Space Coast region to be more compe ve in retaining and a rac ng private capital investment, businesses, and jobs? Public Safety. How will the City ensure that public safety resources are strategically allocated to provide the most effec ve and efficient delivery of public services? Image. How will the City improve its image, both physically and emo onally? Financial Sustainability. How will the City develop a financially sustainable revenue base and control expenses to support the delivery of high quality municipal services? Civic Engagement. How will the City foster civic engagement and involvement? Employees. How will the City work to retain a qualified workforce and prepare itself for the re rement of long-tenured employees, especially in organiza onally cri cal posi ons? City Council and staff met in late 2014 to establish issue specific commi ees and general topics for discussion that will lead to the development of goals, objec ves, strategies and ac on items to address each strategic issue. The commi ees will meet between January and August Addi onal mee ngs with City Council and the community will be facilitated and it is an cipated the City will adopt the Strategic Plan in August If you would like to be a part of the City's Strategic Planning ini a ve, please contact Ma Fuhrer, at (321) or by at mfuhrer@cocoafl.org.
