REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING
JANUARY 26, 2021
Interim City Manager Dauderis provided the Council with an update on the City Manager recruitment
process. She also provided an update on the Council Chambers upgrades and that she is recommending that
the Council wait until the end of February before considering returning to the chambers in City Hall.
Interim City Manager Dauderis provided an update on the art district/VP Development situation. She
informed the Council that the City has entered into public/private partnership as part of the master plan
downtown. She informed the Council that there have been significant road blocks and including the
challenge regarding neighboring property owner. The City has worked for a mutually beneficial solution
for all parties, but has not been successful.
City Attorney Mantzaris restated that staff has worked hard to resolve this issue. He provided background
that under the prior City Manager it was anticipated that these issues could be worked through, but that has
not been the case. There is ongoing litigation between the two parties which the City is not a party to. The
City has provided a tri-party agreement, but is still awaiting final comments. At this point, the City is unsure
if one party wants to even continue, and staff is trying to get an answer to that question. The City cannot
make the parties agree. The City has done as much as possible to get the parties to agree voluntarily.
Council Member Purvis stated that he has tried to play the role of mediator to no avail. He emphasized that
this is not a reflection on staff as he knows staff has made a sincere, strong effort towards resolution. He
requested that staff report back to him in two weeks regarding the following issues: 1) Can the substantial
payment be put on hold until a future date, 2) He recommends the temporary withdrawal of any CUP
granted to either of the parties, 3) Recommends the City issue a cease and desist order to a business
operating in nonconformance concerning with City ordinances regarding approvals.
Mayor Murry concurred with Council Member Purvis.
City Attorney Mantzaris asked for clarification on Council Member Purvis's third request and whether it
was in regard to the mural approvals. Council Member Purvis confirmed that was what he was referencing.
The rest of the Council expressed similar statements.
City Attorney Mantzaris asked the Council to exercise prudence regarding this situation. He reminded them
that there is ongoing legislation and while the City is not a party there are areas where the City will be
involved.
CITY ATTORNEY REPORT
City Attorney Mantzaris informed the Council that required ethics training will be made available in a
digital format broken into two 2 hours sessions. It will be recorded so that those need to watch on their own
time will have the ability to do so.

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING
JANUARY 26, 2021
Mayor Murry invited Ms. Forth to the podium to speak to Item No. 3.
Charlene Forth, 939 W. Desoto, Clermont — requested the Council adjust language regarding the process.
Council Member Purvis asked that staff be given an opportunity to explain what they drafted. He stated
that he originally had some concerns, but after talking with the Interim City Manager, they were put to rest.
Mayor Murry stated in response to Ms. Forth that the public and the Council are both addressed in the
drafted language and he believes that it is clear.
City Attorney Mantzaris explained to the Council that first and foremost when drafting the language, they
paid special attention to the form of government which is Council -Manager. He further explained that as
the body closest to the public they are able to place items on the agenda on behalf of residents; any one of
the five can request an item. The presumption is that a resident would approach a city Council Member
with their requests.
City Attorney Mantzaris reminded the Council that the City Manager serves at the pleasure of the Council
and if they are unhappy with how the manager is handling an issue, they have recourse with which to
address the issue. City Attorney Mantzaris continued that the most important thing that is understood in
the proposed language is that City Council meetings are business meetings and the agenda should only
address items the Council has authority over. He informed them that their authority is limited to setting
policy and that it is the authority of the City Manager to dictate day-to-day decisions. This explains why
the City Manager is in charge of the agenda. They have the ability to determine if an issue can be handled
through administrative channels instead of going to the Council.
Council Member Purvis stated for clarification purposes that if the City Manager says no to a request and
the resident goes to a Council Member and the Council Member makes the request, the item goes on the
agenda. City Attorney Mantzaris confirmed that was the correct interpretation.
Interim City Manager Dauderis added that the resolution also cleans up some housekeeping items such as
the Mayor Pro Tern will attend events in place of the Mayor, and that travel by Council Member spouses
shall not be reimbursed. Based on Council discussion, she also suggested language allowing the Council to
override the Mayor on the time clock if he opposes extending time. The Council consented to the additional
language.
Mayor Murry suggested moving the Public Comments section to after Reports. Council Member Purvis
countered that there should be a second Public Comments section at the end of the meeting. City Attorney
Mantzaris cautioned against both proposals, but stated that as a resolution, the Council can more easily
change the rules if they decide to do so. Council Member Bates opposed any change. It was decided to
leave the Order as is.
MOTION TO APPROVE AS AMENDED the rules of conduct contained in Resolution
2021-003R made by Council Member Bates. Seconded by Council Member Purvis. Passed
unanimously with all members present voicing aye.

QUALIFICATIONS; STAFF ASSIGNMENT/ RESPONSIBILITIES; CONDUCT
OF MEETINGS; CONFLICT AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

had developed in response to the protest this past summer. A decision was made to place the idea on an
agenda last fall, but was postponed until a full Council was seated. He explained that the committee's
purpose is for transparency; it does not have decision making authority and only makes recommendations
to the Chief of Police. The committee will also receive feedback from the community, reevaluate services
and seek ways to better protect services. Chief Broadway did inform the Council that the Police Department
already has platforms in place that provide these ideas.

and building positive relationships that have consistently brought community and police together to enhance
the quality of life. With those factors in place, he does not see that there is a need for an advisory committee.

Department is accredited and is already held to a higher standard.

transparent.

accolades and asked the chief how many complaints have been received with regards to staff assignments,
deadly force, excessive force, etc.
Chief Broadway responded that he was appointed in December 2012 and had a shooting that evening where
the office fired a round. The investigation was conducted by the State of Florida and the officer received
discipline. There has been one complaint for excessive force and the officer was exonerated.
Council Member Pines asked Chief Broadway about training of officers. Chief Broadway stated that
officers train ten (10) times out of the year on a range of topics including but not limited to: Crisis
Intervention, Active Threats, Best Policies and Procedures.
Council Member Entsuah asked if there is anything the Police Department needs. Chief Broadway stated
that he is very content, blessed, and enjoys coming to work in Clermont. He is thankful for the Council and
the City Manager who provides support so that the Police Department can provide exceptional services to
protect the committee.
Mayor Murry agreed with Council statements that Clermont has an excellent Police Department. He wanted
to clarify that he did not bring this issue to the City, but he strongly supports the idea. He expressed several
examples from his personal past interactions with the Police Department where he has not been treated
fairly because of the color of his skin. He also stated that he still receives phone calls, as recently as a few
weeks ago, from residents who are being pulled over without doing anything wrong. When he receives
comments from the community, he contacts Chief Broadway.
