Melbourne Police Community Relations Council Meetings
Governor DeSantis issued the Executive Order that limits Floridians to Essential Services and Activities. The order limits senior citizens and individuals with a significant medical condition to stay at home and limit their exposure to COVID-19. It also directs all persons in Florida to limit individual movements and personal interactions outside of their home, to only those necessary to obtain or provide essential services, or conduct essential services.
Due to this we are required to postpone the Melbourne Police Community Relations Council meetings until further notice. President, Yvonne Minus, Chief Gillespie, and the board members are working on the issues at hand. They are also working on alternative solutions in moving forward with the council meetings.
We hope this finds you well and a reminder that you can find the most current information about City of Melbourne operations, event cancellations and postponements, and other changes at https://www.melbourneflorida.org/about/covid-19

Sixth consecutive male giraffe born at Brevard Zoo
Brevard Zoo’s giraffe tower grew once again on Sunday when 20-year-old Johari gave birth to her ninth calf. The calf’s father, 21-year-old Rafiki, has sired all 14 giraffe born at the Zoo.
The Zoo’s veterinary staff performed a neonatal exam on the youngster, where he was confirmed to be the institution’s sixth consecutive male calf. He weighed 125 pounds and measured six feet tall at the time of birth, and he was found to be in good health and nursing well.
Masai giraffe are endangered due to habitat loss and poaching.
As a not-for-profit organization that receives no recurring public funds, the Zoo has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak in what is typically its busiest season of the year, and it stands to lose one third of its annual income. Community members can support the Zoo by visiting www.brevardzoo.org and donating, purchasing a membership or symbolically adopting an animal.
