1 YO U R sunshine CITY 2014 End Of Year Report
2 END OF YEAR REPORT ,000 Action Center Calls Answered 98,000 Albert Whitted Airport Operations 5,738 Parking Citations Forgiven Through the Expired Amnesty Program It has been an extraordinary year working for and with the people of the Sunshine City. We are well on our way to realizing our vision of St. Petersburg standing as a city of opportunity where the sun shines on all who come to live, work and play. Ours is a clear vision that guides our priorities, plans and actions; and charts the course for continued progress. We have worked with a progressive City Council to align our budget in a way that reflects our goals. We have ushered our great city forward with policy changes that signal our commitment to values-driven service. And, we have laid the groundwork for such important advancements to continue. With all that has been accomplished, we know there is much more to be done. Most importantly, we know we will only truly accomplish all that s possible if we work with the great people who comprise our great city. Thanks for all you have done and will continue to do to ensure that sun shines here! In Shared Service, Zero Casualty Fire Year (A first since 2006) 3,234 St. Petersburg Police Park, Walk and Talks Mayor Rick Kriseman & Deputy Mayor Dr. Kanika Tomalin
3 IN 2014 The City of St. Petersburg strategically altered its course to reflect the progressive trajectory of its people. The first step in that shift was the introduction of a single vision: St. Petersburg will be a city of opportunity, where the sun shines on all who come to live, work and play. We will be an innovative, creative and competitive community that honors our past, while we pursue our future. We are progressing toward that vision along four strategic pathways: Stewardship and Fiscal Responsibility; Innovation; Impactful Service and Community Engagement. We are proud to report that every day, our team of 2,700 committed servant leaders made strides along each of these pathways. In 2014 St. Petersburg partnered, led, grew, cared, partnered and inovated our way forward. Here are some highlights: OUR CITY LED 80 Mayor s Small Business Tour Stops 2,368 Small Buisiness Owners Served by The Greenhouse 115 City Employee School Mentors Trained òò Completed the fiscal year back in black, ending with an estimated operating surplus in the General Fund of $1.2 million, contributing to the City s long-term financial stability. òò $1 million was transferred to our City reserves for the first time in seven years. òò We secured 41 grants totaling $16.9 million in funding. òò A new parental leave policy that applies to mothers and fathers now allows new parents to take the time they need to bond with their children and focus on what matters most family. We hope employers across the city follow all of these examples and increase opportunity in all the ways they are able. he City also Banned the Box from its employment application, which means felons will no longer have to declare their criminal history to apply for a job. Declaration of criminal background is only required for positions with relevant responsibility. This means more people in our community can consider working for the city as they work to rebuild their lives. After years of a stalemate over the future of Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, Mayor Rick Kriseman began a dialogue with the team, leading to a proposed end to the stalemate over the future of the team.
4 St. Petersburg s Unemployment Rate Lowered to 5.7% 1,200 he City embarked on building a new master plan for the downtown waterfront. With the help of our residents, we are building a feasible plan that will act as a guide and inspiration for future development along our city s gem. he Mayor s Office Department of Urban Affairs opened satellite offices at Enoch Davis Center and Child s Park YMCA to reach more residents in a wider range of neighborhoods. òò A Municipality Equality Index (MEI) perfect score of 100 reflects our values of inclusivity, equality and justice. Our score, the highest in Tampa Bay, is a result of the Administration adding and revising several policies to align with the Mayor s commitment to creating a City of Opportunity; as well as naming LGBT liaisons for city hall and the St. Petersburg Police department. New Residential Downtown Living Units 750 New Jobs from Relocated Business 180 Capital Improvement Projects Completed 23,754 Building Permits Approved OUR CITY GREW òò $11 million in Small Business Enterprise contracts were awarded. 106 small businesses expanded their book of business to include the City, with contracts awarded in construction services, goods and services, professional services, and supplies. òò St. Petersburg s unemployment rate dropped from 6.9% in September 2013 to 5.7% in September òò Approximately 1,200 residential units were completed or under construction in the downtown area, creating a more livable and accessible thriving downtown location. òò Existing businesses continued investing and growing in St. Petersburg, including Lumastream in the Dome Industrial District, four new local microbreweries and ASI s second corporate headquarters. òò Corporations like Valpak, IQOR; Saloncentric, EnterpriseHR, TRIAD Retail Media and All Covered IT Management relocated offices to St. Petersburg, contributing more than 750 new jobs in the city. òò Design and construction began on the Walter Fuller Connector Trail, connecting the Pinellas Trail to Walter Fuller Park. he City partnered with USF St. Petersburg to add a new Pinellas Trail segment through the downtown campus.

He attended a trade mission in Chile to spread the word about partnership opportunities in St. Petersburg. He also attended national conferences such as Mayor s Institute on City Design in Charlestown and CityLab2014 in Los Angeles. OUR CITY CARED he Parks and Rec Advantage Card Program removed fees for resident and nonresidents previously required to participate in program.

The program engages more children in urban neighborhoods in youth sports, education activities, and core value activities. òò W e launched the Power of Change parking meter donation stations, designed to repurpose parking meters as a means to raise awareness about homelessness. The meters give people the option of donating their spare change to programs that help the homeless, instead of giving money to panhandlers. The program has raised $ in its first month of implementation, enough to cover the cost of a family s shelter for one week. Power of Change parking meter donation stations, designed to repurpose parking meters as a means to raise awareness about homelessness. he City s minimum wage was raised to $12.50 for all members of our team, now reflecting our Administration s commitment to every member of our team earning a living wage that provides for his or her family. This minimum wage is $2.40 more than the national minimum wage recommendation. he Day Services Program at St. Vincent De Paul, made possible thanks to the City s increased investment of $120,000, now provides extended services to 11 a.m. and guests are encouraged to stay until the night shelter re-opens at 9 p.m. 24/7 services for the Vincentian Care Center we implemented through this increased investment as well. òò O ur Mayor pledged to lead by example and improve the culture of our community by signing the Mayors for the Freedom to Marry Pledge, the Mayors Maker s Pledge; and joining the bipartisan coalition Mayors Against Illegal Guns. $363 Donation Station Collections in the first month of operation $12.50 City s Newly Increased Minimum Wage $391m Value of New Constructions

In one of his first acts in office, he reopened the gates to The Pier for pedestrians and fishing, and brought stakeholders from all sides of the Pier issue together to forge a new process to replace the Pier. An international design competition has resulted in eight new Pier concepts being submitted. A non-binding public survey is being conducted in late Feb - early March to arm the Pier Selection Committee, City Council and the Mayor with a public consensus as the city proceeds toward construction of a new pier. $1.3m In Housing Assistance for Those in Need he Mayor s Service Learning Challenge for St. Petersburg-area public schools is underway. Through this program, three schools (Lealman, 74th Street Elementary School and Gibbs High School) received start-up funding from the Pinellas Education Foundation for student-led service learning projects. In addition, through a partnership with Eckerd College, a pilot service learning project at St. Petersburg High School is planned to launch during the second semester of the 2014 academic year. òò M ayor Kriseman has refocused Mayor s Mentors and More, the City s partnership with the Pinellas Education Foundation and Pinellas County Schools.

8 Editorial: St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman has successful first year In ways large and small, St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman steered the city in a positive direction in his first year in office. Several festering issues such as red-light cameras and curbside recycling have been resolved. Progressive new initiatives have been launched inside and outside City Hall, and better relationships have been cultivated from the state capital to the county courthouse. Kriseman has established a solid foundation for an administration that blends attention to detail with long-term vision, but the trajectory of his first term could be decided this year by how the baseball stadium stalemate and plans for a new pier play out. Kriseman brought fresh energy and enthusiasm to the mayor's office. He negotiated a resolution to a long-running dispute with the county over EMS funding. He followed through on campaign promises to tighten St. Petersburg's policy on high-speed police chases and establish universal curbside recycling, which should be in place this year. He endorsed getting rid of red-light cameras he supported as a candidate after revenue from the cameras did not cover their cost, and he expects to soon announce plans to build a much-needed police headquarters in one construction phase. All of these are long-simmering issues that had St. Petersburg stuck in neutral rather than moving confidently forward. The new mayor also brought to city government fresh thinking, creating a younger and more racially diverse leadership team that cost more money but has delivered impressive results. He hired the city's first female African-American deputy mayor, Kanika Tomalin, and empowered her to make decisions. He promoted a new parks and recreation director, and a new city development administrator arrives this month. Most significantly, Kriseman boldly rejected four finalists for police chief when they failed to impress and instead recruited Clearwater police Chief Tony Holloway, who is winning praise from all corners of the city. Kriseman's proactive approach is evident inside and outside City Hall.
