First of all, it is important that everyone know what a buffer is according to the City of Atlantic Beach. Below is Amanda's response to me on that question. 50 -foot buffer: The comp plan sets the goals, policies and objectives and we use the zoning code to implement them. The codes (24-241) only require the 50' foot buffer for newly created lots after 2010. Existing lots of records are exempt from the 50' but have to meet a 25' buffer. "In cases where the minimum twenty -five-foot buffer is demonstrated to be unreasonable or impractical, an averaged twenty -five-foot undisturbed buffer with a minimum no less than fifteen (15) feet may be provided." My comments in this regard - This buffer is measured at the high water mark at a certain date in time. So, what is wrong with this concept? 1. The idea seems to originate from Florida Statute 163.3202. That statute is referenced in the draft of the 2030 Comprehensive plan under the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the plan. Under Policy D.1.5.1 the plan states "In accordance with Section 163.3202, Florida Statutes, the City shall maintain within its Land Development Regulations establish the following:... (b) A buffer zone of natural vegetation around wetland and deepwater habitats." The big problem here is that Section 163.3202 does not anywhere mention a buffer zone. I have attached a copy of that statute for your reference. 2. The high water mark moves. In fact on my property it has encroached 10 feet inland toward my land in the last 15 years. While a concept of a buffer zone may work just fine when talking about inland parks, the whole idea falls apart when the line for the buffer zone is moving, especially inward, engulfing more and more of land owners land. 3. There has been a natural buffer zone between me and the water that has eroded by 10 feet over the last 15 years, due to lack of shoring up the land. The natural buffer zone does not stop erosion, which is our number one problem today. 4. The buffer zone would be policed by the city to make sure everyone is in compliance with the regulation. No one on the marsh wants that. I have spoken to several clients of mine that live on the ICW in Marsh Landing, one is an attorney. They assure me no such regulation is being proposed in Marsh Landing, and if it were would be soundly defeated for the reasons above, but most importantly because of eminent domain, which I will speak more about tomorrow.

Benefits of clearly demarcating parking spaces: Improved Parking Efficiency: Clearly demarcated parking spaces make it easier for drivers to identify vacant parking spaces, reducing the time spent searching and maneuvering. This leads to a more efficient use of parking resources and reduced traffic congestion. Enhanced Safety: Clearly demarcated parking spaces help drivers park accurately, reducing the risk of collisions and property damage. Clearly demarcated parking spaces also help pedestrians navigate parking areas safely. Accessibility for All: Clearly demarcated parking spaces, including those designated for disabled individuals and, ensure that all users have access to convenient and accessible parking options. Aesthetics and Orderliness: Clearly demarcated parking spaces create a more organized and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the overall environment of parking areas and surrounding properties Clear Parking Policies: Clearly demarcated parking spaces reinforce parking regulations and policies, making it easier for drivers to understand and comply with parking rules. Reduced Confusion and Frustration: Clearly demarcated parking spaces eliminate confusion and frustration among drivers, minimizing the likelihood of parking disputes and conflicts. Enhanced Traffic Flow: Efficient parking contributes to smoother traffic flow, reducing congestion and delays, especially in high -traffic areas. Improved Pedestrian Safety: Clearly demarcated parking spaces help separate pedestrian areas from parking spaces, reducing the risk of collisions and creating a safer environment for pedestrians. 1. Accessibility for People with Disabilities: Clearly demarcated parking spaces ensure that individuals with disabilities have easy access to designated parking areas, promoting accessibility and inclusivity. Policy Public parking spaces should be clearly and consistently (where possible) demarcated with signage, striping, or other appropriate markings. Examples of clearly demarcated spaces are parking spaces that are painted with white lines on black pavement; parking spaces that are marked with posts and signs; and painted curbs where parking is prohibited. Markings shall be of a contrasting color to the surrounding pavement. Parking spaces shall be of a size that is adequate for the type of vehicle that is intended to be parked in the space. Parking spaces shall be arranged in a manner that is efficient and safe. While signage is necessitated at times, every effort should be made to utilize unique striping or a universal public parking symbol, instead. Because of the city's unique parking demands, including rights-of-way constraints in various areas of the city, the city should have parking zones. AREA / ZONE GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION POLICY Beaches Town Center North side of Atlantic Parking spaces should be on paved Zone Blvd from Third Street surfaces and marked with white lines (A1A) east to the Atlantic and pay -for -parking signage. Ocean. Old Atlantic Beach & First Street north to city Parking spaces on the paved rights -of - Beach Zone limit. East of Sherry Drive way shall be marked with lines and/or and east of Seminole symbols. (north of the Five -way) Demarcation of public parking availability on off-street rights-of-way shall be clear and discernable; should have signage or be marked with symbols; and shall not block line of sight.

Public Works Department shall be responsible for any demarcation of the parking spaces, including striping, signage and pavement materials. Exceptions The City Manager may grant exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis. Decisions to do so must be reported in writing to the City Commission. Exceptions shall only be granted for public safety concerns. 3 Parking Policy: Rights -of -Way Obstruction Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish protocols regarding plantings, landscaping material and other obstruction within the public rights-of-way that can create safety and operational issues including interference of public parking, line -of -sight concerns, stormwater conveyance problems, root intrusion of plants impacting utilities, and damage to public facilities such as sidewalks. The city's public rights- of-way are to be reserved for public use and plantings and other obstruction will not be permitted. Sod is the only permitted vegetation allowed upon city approval. Desired plantings can be installed on private property. Definition(s) Per Sec. 19-1, rights-of-way or public rights-of-way means land in which the city owns the fee or has an easement devoted to vehicular, bicycle and/or pedestrian movement, or required for use as a transportation facility, as that term is defined in F.S. § 334.03(21), and may lawfully grant access pursuant to applicable law and includes the surface, airspace over the surface and the area below the surface of such rights-of-way. "Public rights-of-way" shall not include (a) county, state or federal rights- of-way, (b) property owned by any person other than the city, (c) service entrances or driveways leading from the road or street onto adjacent property, or (d) except as described above, any real or personal property of the city, such as, but not limited to, city parks, buildings, fixtures, conduits, water lines, sewer lines, facilities or other structures or improvements, regardless of whether they are situated in the public rights-of-way. Policy Plantings, landscaping material or other obstruction within public rights -of way are not permitted per the city Code Sec. 19-1. However, the City prioritizes ensuring that impediments creating public safety hazards (e.g. strike hazards and line -of -site impediments, including parked vehicles) are not in the public rights-of-way. In the event of failure by the owner to move obstructions as directed by the City, the City shall do so and the expense of same charged to the property owner. All existing obstructions within the 2 -foot safety zone shall be removed (Sec. 19-5). All other plantings, landscaping material or other obstructions must comply with this section of the code. Enforcement Working in conjunction with other City staff, Code Enforcement and Public Works shall be responsible for enforcing the provisions of this policy. Exceptions 4 e The City Manager may grant exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis. Decisions to do so must be reported in writing to the City Commission. Exceptions shall only be granted for public safety concerns. Parking Policy: Pervious Stabilized Surface Parking Systems (e.g. Turf Block Permeable Pavers) Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish protocols regarding pervious stabilized surface parking systems (i.e. Turf Block permeable pavers) for parking, which the city has identified as being a viable tool in demarcating public parking spaces. Policy The City should allocate funding annually toward installing pervious stabilized surface parking systems (i.e. Turf Block permeable pavers): • To be proactive in demarking public parking spaces counted towards beach renourishment cost -share funding, where feasible. • On a case-by-case basis, to proactively demarcate public parking spaces in other areas of the City where unpaved rights-of-way have been customarily utilized for public parking. le Paid Parking Program 01-17-24 Policy Question 1: Should the 18th _ 19th Street paid -parking program area be extended? If so, to where? Paid Parking Policy: Locations for paid parking programs Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for the locations of paid parking. Charging for parking encourages turnover and ensures that parking spaces are utilized efficiently. It discourages long-term or unnecessary parking, allowing more people to access the available parking spots. Currently paid parking is operated in the Beaches Town Center (year round) and 18th and 19th Street (seasonal) Policy Paid parking should be located in the Beaches Town Center, Old Atlantic Beach and Beach Zones (as identified in Parking Policy: Demarcating Parking Spaces (see Figure 1) on stabilized surfaces (pavement, gravel, turf block, etc.) with more than three (3) abutting parking spaces. Paid parking should be extended to areas within the identified zones with more than three (3) abutting parking spaces on stabilized surface. Areas with 3 or more abutting spaces Ahern St beach access 111 St beach access 7th St adjacent to Bull Park 7th St between Ocean Blvd & Beach Ave Beach Ave near the 8th ST beach access Bull Park parking Plaza 300 Block 101h St Beach Access 11th St Beach Access 1 15th St Beach Access Waters Park parking Dewees Ave adjacent to Marvin's Gardens 201h St Beach Access r`0 Paid Parking Program 01-17-24 BEACHES TOWN CENTER ZONE OLD ATLANTIC BEACH & BEACH ZONE �er.wiK erou Nrrea ch Figure 1 Policy Question 2: Should either both paid -parking program times and season be changed?

Paid Parking Policy: Residential Parking Permits Purpose The purpose of this policy is to protect residential neighborhoods from vehicles trying to avoid paid parking. Policy The City should institute a program for permitting residential only parking in areas within one (1) block of any paid parking (with the exception of the parking spaces counted towards beach renourishment). Policy Question 4: Should overtime parking fine amounts be the same citywide? Paid Parking Policy: Overtime parking fines Purpose The purpose of this policy is to create a fair and equitable overtime parking fine structure. Policy The City should institute the same fines in all pay parking in the city in order to streamline the program and avoid confusion. Policy Question 5: How should net paid -parking revenue be allocated? Paid Parking Policy: Net paid parking revenue Purpose The purpose of this policy is to create guidance on how net revenue should be spent. Net revenue from other locations outside of the Beaches Town Center should be structured like the revenue collected in the Beaches Town Center. This enables the revenue to be reinvested in the community and not the general fund Policy The City should establish a pay -for -parking enterprise fund for the City's paid parking program outside of Beaches Town Center just as it has for Beaches Town Center. This parking fund may be used to fund complete streets projects; landscape and/or hardscape improvements; alternative transportation solutions; and to pay for management of the paid parking program.
