Mayor Meserve presented the framed document to Public Works Director Kosoy and Utilities Director Kaluzniak. Public Works Director Kosoy praised the work of his dedicated employees and thanked the Mayor for the recognition. Dorothy Kerber of 365 First Street spoke concerning Item 8F and expressed concern regarding potential future utility rate increases. Joe Gufford of 13966 Sound Overlook Drive N., Jacksonville, introduced himself and stated that he was a candidate for the District 2 School Board Race. Mr. Gufford briefly outlined. his campaign platform and urged those present to feel free to contact him at any time. J.P. Marchioli of 414 Sherry Drive stated that he opposed any utility rate increases and suggested a fine of up to $5,000 for littering to offset the increased costs for utilities. Mr. Marchioli commented on the recent fire on Seminole Road and urged residents to purchase fire extinguishers. He also stated that he would be submitting a petition for stop signs to be installed on Sherry Drive at 3rd and 6th Streets to slow traffic on Sherry Drive. Alan Potter of 374 Second Street stated that ten years ago he served on the Water and Sewer Committee, which established the rate structure currently used by the city. Mr. Potter indicated that the current rate structure was fair and equitable for all the residents of the city. He felt the rate restructure analysis should be performed in-house. Mr. Potter believed the St. Johns River Water Management District did not have authority to dictate how rates are set. Bob Totter of 275 11th Street complimented the city for "recycling" the shrubbery from the Adele Grage Community Center property to the tennis courts. Mr. Totter felt the company handling the city's solid waste collection was very efficient and no additional pick-up of yard waste was. warranted (Item 3A). He also felt the utility customers outside the city limits should pay the 5% franchise fee imposed by the City of Jacksonville, not the city's residents (Item 8F). Stephen Kuti of 1132 Linkside Drive stated that extra yard waste was '` only generated in the fall and spring and an additional pick up was not needed. Mr. Kuti reported that he had spoken to Matt Carlucci, City of Jacksonville Council President, concerning billing irregularities for state OMMISSIONERS M O T I O N S E C O N D Y E S N (~ Minutes Page -3- May 13, 2002 and local taxes on his AT & T Broadband monthly statement. He reported that the Attorney General was now investigating the company's rate structure. 3. Unfinished Business From the Previous Meetings A. Report and possible action regarding increasing the .frequency of garbage collection (Comm. Parsons) Commissioner Parsons displayed pictures of yard trash which he said were taken the day after collection, which were taken in all areas of the city. He indicated that he would like the Commission to consider adding another day of yard trash pick up to eliminate unsightly piles of debris sitting curbside for a week or more. Commissioner Parson believed the extra pick up would add $1.86 to each household's monthly bill. Discussion ensued relative to the actual cost increase. Mayor Meserve felt an additional pick up would not solve the problem, and indicated that he did not want to make residents on fixed incomes pay for something that was not needed. Commissioner Borno agreed with the Mayor, and indicated that he needed more information on the additional costs. After a brief discussion it was determined that more information on the related costs for the additional service was needed before taking any action on the request. B. Award contract for Core City Improvements pursuant to the specifications of Bid No. 0102-13 Motion: Award contract to Petticoat Contracting in the amount of $4,811,777 for the Core City Improvements pursuant to the specifications of Bid No. 0102-13. Public Works Director Kosoy explained that Jensen Civil Construction's bid was $1.5 M higher than its previous bid. He indicated that Petticoat Contracting's bid had increased slightly since all the cost of dewatering was made incidental to all utility and drainage construction and due to the increased costs of PVC pipe. A brief discussion ensued with Commissioner Borno inquired regarding the staging area for the project. Utility Director Kosoy indicated that it had not been chosen yet. Public Works Director Kosoy's Staff Report dated May 9, 2002 concerning the bid analysis is attached and made part of this official record as Attachment A.

The amendment to the motion and motion carried unanimously. D. Request from Selva Norte Homeowners Association for city water on four medians City Manager Hanson explained that the Selva Norte Homeowners Association had requested the city waive or reduce the cost of installing a water meter to provide irrigation for four medians located on 20th Street, Selva Marina Drive and Mipaula Court. Itwas reported that previously the Homeowners Association had requested support for the beautification of the medians under the city's Public Beach Access Beautification Program, but were turned down by the Beautification Committee since the medians were not beach access points. City Manager Hanson pointed out that in recent years the only projects approved for use of city water for irrigation were beach accesses, but in the prior years various projects were approved for irrigation, which were not beach accesses. A list of those projects is included with the Staff Report dated Apri125, 2002, which is attached and made part of the official record as Attachment C. City Manager Hanson further explained that the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) had advised the city to increase its conservation measures and discourage the use of city water for irrigation in the future. City Manager Hanson recommended that the city prohibit the use of city water for future median or beach access projects if other resources were available. He then provided options for consideration with this request, and suggested that if in the future, the Commission wanted the city to be involved in median landscaping projects, consideration should be given to rewriting the current Beach Access Beautification Program guidelines to include options for those types of landscaping projects. Discussion of the request ensued. Commissioner Parsons stated he would like to move forward with the project and indicated that the neighbors would allow connection to their existing well-fed irrigation system. He felt the city should provide monetary support for. the `""~' project in the form of a reimbursement grant. OMMISSIONERS M O T I O N S E C O N D Y E S N Q Minutes Page -9- May 13, 2002 ,~. Commissioner Borno supported the project, but felt a shallow well should be installed for the irrigation system. He stated that he did not object to the installation of a "Selva Norte" sign, but felt a "Welcome to Selva Norte" sign was inappropriate. Commissioner Beaver indicated that a shallow well would need a power source and he would prefer that the medians be connected to an existing private well. He felt the entire program should be addressed, including beach accesses and medians. Commissioner Waters felt no "Welcome" sign should be placed on city property. He felt the major roads within the city and the beach accesses, which were used by all residents, deserved city attention, but other requests may "open a Pandora's box" for the city. Mayor Meserve agreed with Commissioner Waters in that the request caused a precedent setting problem. He felt that a systematic approach would be to address the rules and guidelines first. Mayor Meserve requested staff to bring back their recommendations for a policy to handle this type of request. He also felt the Homeowners Association request needed to be more defined in order to determine the costs. It was the consensus of the Commission to have staff bring back their recommendations for a policy to handle this type of request. E. Authorize the Police Department to submit an application for Federal Byrne State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance Formula Grant (City Manager) Motion: Authorize the Police Department to submit an application for Federal Byrne State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance Formula Grant. There was no discussion and the motion carried unanimously. F. Authorize the City .Manager to negotiate and sign a contract to perform a water and sewer utility rate structure analysis (City Manager) Motion: Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and sign a contract to perform a water and sewer utility rate structure analysis. City Manager indicated that the study involved many variables and the city did not possess the expertise to model all of them. He OMMISSIONERS M O T I O N S E C O N D Y E S N Q BEAVER X BORNO X X PARSONS X WATERS X X MESERVE X BEAVER X X BORNO X X PARSONS X WATERS X MESERVE X Minutes Page -10- May 13, 2002 -„.,, indicated that he would like to hire a consultant with a software program to model all of the different scenarios accurately. The City Manager further reported that the SJRWMD required the City to implement water conservation measures and they could revoke the city's consumptive use permit if the changes were not implemented. Commissioner Borno felt hiring a consultant would be the most efficient way to obtain concise results. Mayor Meserve inquired if such a consulting company would have contact with the SJRWMD to make sure the city's study was going in the right direction. City Manager Hanson responded that he hoped the company selected would be knowledgeable of other cities across the state who had adopted water conserving rates approved by their respective water management districts. He felt this requirement could be included as part of the evaluation ranking criteria. Following brief discussion regarding whether the study could be done in-house, the motion carried by a three to two vote with Commissioners Beaver and Borno and Mayor Meserve voting aye and Commissioners Waters and Parsons voting nay. 9. City Manager In addition to his written report, which is attached and made part of this official record as Attachment D, City Manager Hanson reported on the following items: • Reported on the destructive fire of undetermined origin at Tideviews Preserve, which destroyed approximately 115 feet of boardwalk and melted a recycled plastic park bench.

City Manager Hanson suggested that the city join with the City of Jacksonville to engage the services of Attorney Matthew Leibowitz, an expert in cable franchise agreement negotiations, to obtain the best protection for Atlantic Beach citizens. The blended rate for his law firm was reported to be $200 per hour. The Commission concurred with the recommendation. ., • Reported that the backlog of Building Department Plan Reviews caused by implementation of the new Florida Standard Building Code had been caught up.

May 6, 2002 MEMORANDUM TO: ` The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission FROM: Jim Hans City M eanag r .SUBJECT: Follow-U Items Comalaints about 11th Street Dune Walkover; A citizen complained at the last Commission Meeting about the dune walkover recently built at l lth Street. The complaints were that the structure was too high, that construction was shoddy and that the piling splices were not structurally sound. On height, the walkover meets City of Atlantic Beach requirements of being !`""' within 25 inches of the sand with the exception of where it crosses over thedune. It would have. been impossible to build a ramp to comply with the 25 inch height limit without the ramp being to steep. The other complaints were noted in the City's final inspection of the job. When these complaints were made, the City had not yet made a final inspection. The nails not fully driven into the wood were actually left over from the stringers used by the contractors to level. the construction and have been added to a punch list of items for the contractorto remove. Splicing. the pilings is an acceptable technique and approved by the City if it is done correctly. During the final inspection, one of the splicings was found to be poorly constructed and the contractor was instructed to rework that piling. The work should have been completed by the contractor prior to the date of the May 13th Commission meeting. Fire on Seminole Road; Two follow-up points are appropriate after the discussion about the response to the recent fire on Seminole Road. Both are in response to complaints by one person at the scene that the response time of the Fire Department was considerably longer than shown on the Atlantic Beach Dispatch Log. First, a question was raised about whether the City of Jacksonville received. other calls about the fire that were not routed through the Atlantic Beach Dispatch Center and possibly were received prior to Atlantic Beach getting the first fire calla City staff checked with Jacksonville and found that the only calls received about this fire were routed through the Atlantic Beach 911 Center. Second, a citizen insisted that a call had come from his house to Atlantic Beach about this fire well before the time shown on the Atlantic Beach Dispatch Log. The City recorder clearly shows that his wife's call. was the fifth to report the fire. She called at 3:20' a.m. The first call received was at 3:19 a,m. .AGENDA ITEM #3C MAY 13; 2002 i Workshou for Bud eting the Better Jacksonville Half Cent Sales Tax Fund; At the last Commission Meeting, Commissioners indicated they would like to have a special workshop to discuss the use of money in the Better Jacksonville Half Cent Sales Tax Fund that was deferred during the budget approval process last Fall pending the Care City bids being opened. Following are three options for the workshop date. It would be helpful if each of you could check your schedules and be ready to let us know your availability at the Commission Meeting on May 13th: Monday, May 20th - 5:00 pm Monday, June 3~ - 5:00 pm Monday, July 1 ~ - 5:00 pm <~°'".,~ ~ ~ _ ATTACHMENT C MAY 13, 2002 COMMISSION M~'r:TING CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION MEETING STAFF REPORT - AGENDA ITEM: Request from Selva Norte Homeowners Association for City Water on Four Medians ~• SUBMITTED BY: Jim Hanson, Cit DATE: April 25, 2002 BACKGROUND:.. Attached is a request from James KoLster, President of the Selva Norte Homeowners Association for the City to waive or reduce the water installation fee (and provide water?):for four medians located on 20~' Street, Selva Marina Drive and Mipaula Court. This group has received funding from the City of Jacksonville Mayor's Neighborhood. ...Matching Grant Program for $3,650.00. They previously requested support from the City of Atlantic Beach under the "Public Beach Access Beautification Program" but were turned down by the City's Beautification Committee. This request does not meet the requirements of the Program because .the medians are not beach access points. The only private landscaping projects to receive approval for use of City Water for irrigation in recent years have been beach access points. However, in earlier years, several projects were approved that were not beach accesses. Some medians receive City water and are currently maintained by the City such as those on Atlantic Boulevard and Plaza Drive. See the attached tabulation of landscaped medians in the City. Some other medians receive City water, but get little or no maintenance .from City staff. These include most of the medians on Selva Marina and one of the Oceanwalk medians at a lift station on Barefoot Trace. Several other medians on public streets in the City are irrigated by private wells. These include most of the other medians in the Oceanwalk Subdivision and one on Selva Marina Circle off l2~' Street. There are. many other medians on public streets that are not irrigated and include many in the newly acquired Selva Marina Subdivision, although there are several others. The Commission's decision in this instance mayset a precedent for future requests. In recent discussions with the St. Johns Water Management District, the City has been advised to increase. conservation. measures by using wells for irrigation, install rain sensors on irrigation systems, change our water rates to increase the cost for irrigation use, and otherwise discourage the use of City water for irrigation in the future.. AGENDA ITEM #8D MAY 13, 2002 ; BUDGET: RECOMMENDATION: First, the Commission should decide if it is appropriate for the City to commit the use of City water. for irrigation of new median landscaping projects. Given the statewide concern. for water supply and the City's ,proper role to set a good example to our customers, my recommendation is to prohibit the use of City water for future median projects (or beach access projects) if any other resources are available. Perhaps a better solution is to help pay the cost to~ get wells installed, connect to existing well-fed irrigation systems or otherwise subsidize the project. Whatever the decision, if the City is to get involved in median landscaping projects, the Beach Access Beautification Program guidelines should be amended. ATTACHMENT: (1) Letter from James Kolster dated April 15, 2002 (2) List of Landscaped medians in Atlantic Beach (3) Guidelines for Public Beach Access Beautification Program ,, :. Jim Hanson, Ci .City of Atlantic 800 Seminole Road Atlantic Beach, FI 32233 Dear Mr. Hanson, i hope you will recall our visit several months back wherein Ned Jardine and I outlined for you the general plans we have on behalf of the Selva Norte Homeowners Association regarding the beautification of the road medians in our sub division. along with the placement of "Welcome" signs at the two entrances to Selva Norte. I am President of the Association. Ned is Vice President. Subsequently we conferred with Bob Kosoy and then with Timmy Johnson. I Have attached a copy of our plans (minus the finer detail on the plantings themselves).. I was informed that we could proceed with our plans for irrigation of the medians but thafi the cost for the installation of the water meters would be $ 885 each. That cost is beyond what can be accommodated by the funds we have generated for this project. I discussed this situation with Don Ford and he indicated that any appeal for relief on that cost would. have to be made to you. Hence, this letter... We can fully. understand the high cost for the installation of the water meter on an individual private home site. That cost would be a strong inducement to instead do an installation of a shallow well; hence reduce the use of potable water for irrigation. For this installation there. is no such shallow well option possible. And, indeed, .the property which will be irrigated is city property. You did encourage us to pursue the use of shallow wells of adjacent homeowners. In two of the four cases there is no such option available and in the other two -cases we, upon further consideration, are concerned that while a current homeowner may agree to tap into his irrigation system the next homeowner may not. Having a scheme which avoids. that possible future dilemma is a far more prudent plan. Hence, I request on behalf of our Board of Directors that the $ 885 installation fee be waived or at least reduced to the direct out of pocket cost for the meters themselves. The labor for the installation, I would expect could be done also. by the city as this is a improvement which is of benefit to the city as well as to our subdivision.. Thank you very much.

I am pleased to present plans for which we seek approval relating to improvements in our subdivision. Specifically, we wish to: (1) erect "Welcome" signs at each of the two entrance areas of Selva Norte, and (2) enhance the landscaping on the four road median within the subdivision which have suffered from neglect for the past several years. Details Signs We seek permission to place a sign with dimensions of 3' high by 4 `wide which would read "Welcome to Selva Norte" on the style similar to that which is seen at the intersection of Seminole :Road and Atlantic Blvd. entrance into the City of Atlantic Beach. See sample shown in Note # 4 below. One sign would. be erected on the relatively small median located on Selva Marina Drive approximately one city block length south of the intersection of Selva Marina Drive arid Twentieth .Street (see exhibit # 1). The second would be located on the north side of Twentieth Street on the city right-of-way near the drainage ditch approximately one and one-half blocks west of Seminole Road (see exhibit # 2). The work would be done by Ace Design Sign Company. Landscaping We seek permission to upgrade the appearance of four road medians located as follows: Se{va Marina Drive (exhibit # 1), Twentieth Street between Selva Marina Drive and Mipaula Court (exhibit # 3), Twentieth Street between Colina Court and Vela Norte Court (exhibit # 4), and Selva Madera Court (exhibit # 5). This would include provision of irrigation of each area and the placement of new plantings . We have had the benefit of your assistance with regard to the plantings. Those details .are shown in the pages attached to exhibits 1, 3, 4, and 5. Also with your assistance we have been assured that city .water would be accessible at three of these locations without disturbing the road . ~"he fourth location may or may not be able to accommodate this, but in that case we have access ~ the shallow well irrigation system of the adjacent homeowner...

Homeowners Association AGENDA ITEM #8D MAY 13, 2002 Selva Norte Proposal, March 18, 2002, page # 3 lote# 1: A condition of the City of Jacksonville Mayor's Matching Grant requiresa contribution in .the form of in kind homeowners volunteer hours of at least 128 hours @ $10 which would be more than realized in the installation of the irrigation system and to some extent the new plantings. Note # 2: To deal with a cash flow concern, we would deal initially with the installation of the signs and the access to water for each median and then proceed with the landscaping with attention first to the Twentieth Street medians, next the. Selva Marina Drive median, and finally the Selva Madera Court median. Note # 3. There is another median in the sub division; located at the north end of Selva Marina Drive, but this median was improved several years ago by the residents who live on that cul du sac and, I understand, the support of the then Atlantic Beach .Beautification Committee.- Note # 4.

Fire at Tideviews Park; A fire in a wooded area of Tideviews Park recently occurred which burned approximately 115 feet of the City's boardwalk and melted one of the benches. The total estimated cost of the loss exceeds $24,000. A claim has been filed with the City's insurance carrier. The Police Department has not been able to determine the cause of the fire. Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) and Comprehensive Plan Revisions; Commissioners have expressed an interest in making adjustments to the City's zoning map and possibly other changes to the 1990 Comprehensive Plan. The State of Florida has mandated a procedure to follow when making any Comp Plan amendments. A major component of that is . completing an EAR Report. Attached for your review is a memo dated April 29, 2002 from Sonya Doerr outlining the State requirements for both the EAR and Comp Plan revisions and a timetable of events leading to that point. There will be several steps along the way for both input from the Mayor and Commission as well as the public. The first of these is anticipated late in June when the City Commission and Community Development Board will consider the draft of the EAR Public Information Program for Core City Project; The City's construction management firm, GAI, will attend the Commission Meeting on May 13th to present a plan that has been crafted to communicate with residents of the Core City area throughout the project and to address any citizen complaints that may arise. a AGENDA ITEM #9 MAY 13, 2002 r, MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City. Commission FROM: Sonya B. Doerr, AICP Community Development Director DATE: April. 29, 2002 RE: Summary of the Comprehensive Plan and Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR} Process In 1985, the State Legislature revised the Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development _ ,,,, \ Regulation Act (commonly referred to as the Growth Management Act) to require that all local governments develop and implement a comprehensive plan upon which future land use decisions would be based. The responsibility to ensure that comprehensive plans met the basic requirements. of the law was .placed with the Department of Community Affairs (DCA). With those 1985 changes to the law, many communities were compelled to carefully consider growth and land use issues for the first time. .Now, 17 years later,. comprehensive plans have been adopted and implemented by all 67 Florida counties and by 394 cities. The State of Florida. is one of only a handful of states that regulate growth and land use at the statewide .level. These states are referred to as the growth management states, and in spite of the complexities and some failures, Florida is nationally recognized as one of the successes in statewide land use regulation. The growth management regulations are enacted by Florida Statutes, Chapter 163, Part II, and the administrative rules are set forth within the Florida Administrative Code, Rules 9J-5 and 9J-11. The legislation mandates that all local Comprehensive Plans include certain elements, and gives discretion to other issues which may be or may not be relevant to a particular jurisdiction. Each element must contain goals,. objectives and policies (GOPS) to implement the plan for five and ten-year time periods. These specific GOPS provide the policy direction for amending local zoning and land development regulations as necessary to implement the Plan. The required elements of the Comprehensive Plan are:.. • a future land. use element and a future land use. map, which designates proposed general distribution and location of various types of land uses including standards for residential .density and building intensities; • an infrastructure element, which addresses solid. waste, sanitary sewer, potable water, drainage and ,~„ stormwater, and any natural aquifer recharge areas; b AGENDA ITEM #9 MAY 13, 2002 • a coastal management element (for most coastal communities); • a conservation element; • a traffic circulation element; • a housing element;. • a recreation and open space element; • a capital improvements element that addresses the need, provision. and. funding for adequate public facilities; and. • an intergovernmental. coordination element. ;, There are also several optional elements, which may be included in the Comprehensive Plan. As an example, the City of Atlantic Beach may wish to include a community design element which could consist of design polices and recommendations to address neighborhood redevelopment, subdivision design, open space requirements, and similar issues. Such policies and recommendations. would then. be used to amend land. development regulations related to future redevelopment and new development. During the past four years, communities larger than 2,500 in population have updated and reassessed their Comprehensive Plans through the required Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) process. Most: EARs have now been reviewed by DCA and found to have included sufficient information to allow amendments to Comprehensive Plans to proceed in accordance with the EAR recommendations. The EAR adopted by the City of Atlantic Beach Florida, however, was found to be insufficient. As such, the City cannot proceed with amendments to the adopted Comprehensive Plan until the minimum requirements of the EAR process are met. The administrative rules related to the EAR .process and the Comprehensive Plan amendment process establish procedures for consideration and adoption of these documents. These procedures require the local government to seek public input through transmittal- hearings, prior to submitting the EAR and any subsequent Comprehensive Plan amendments to DCA. Once our revised EAR is found to be sufficient, we will proceed with amendments to the current Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan amendments will be transmitted tothe State; DCA will then review and offer comments on the proposed amendments. Once any .comments are addressed, the City .will hold adoption hearings to .enact the EAR-based Comprehensive Plan .amendments. As you are likely aware, the Governor and the Legislature .have cited growth management as a major priority over the last. two sessions. Recent changes in the legislation now require local governments to submit a progress report regarding school planning and to address the success of coordinating the comprehensive plan with existing and planned public school facilities. It is anticipated that this requirement will be addressed within the Intergovernmental Coordination element, since most of the schools serving the City of Atlantic .Beach are outside of the municipal limits. The impact of other recent changes related to growth management .and Comprehensive Plans will be more significant to counties and larger developing jurisdictions. I do not anticipate that the amendments needed to our Plan will require major changes in policy direction, but I do expect that the Coastal Management element, and how the City proposes to address redevelopment in the event of a .catastrophic storm event, will be expanded and strengthened due to changes in State law since our original Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1990. If you are interested in obtaining a summary of Enrolled Bills from the 2002 Legislative Session, please call me, and I will mail a copy to you. I have also included a copy of F.S., Chapter 163.3177, which sets forth the .requirements for Comprehensive Plans. 2 °, Anticipated EAR schedule with proposed workshop and meeting dates June 25, 2002 July 16, 2002 July 22, 2002 DCA Review Sufficiency Finding Amendment to Comprehensive Plan AGENDA ITEM #9 .MAY 13, 2002 Joint Community. llevelopment Board and c;rty commission workshop to present a draft and take comments related to the Evaluation and Appraisal Report. Draft ~ report to be sent to all members at least. one week prior to workshop. Make revisions resulting from joint workshop and place on the regular 7uly CD Board agenda to consider a recommendation to City Commission to transmit to Department of Community. Affairs. (The CD Board is the designated Local Planning Agency, and by Statute, the LPA is required to make a recommendation to the local .government on the EAR and all Comprehensive Plan amendments.) This would be the first public. meeting where any public input would be heard.) "Transmittal hearing" is required by F.S., Chapter 163. Commission will vote to transmit the EAR to DCA, or they could request changes prior to transmittal. This meeting is required to be a public hearing, so there is again opportunity, for any further public comment. If the Commission votes to transmit, we will forward the EAR to the Regional Planning .Council and DCA's Division of Community Planning. DCA may take .thirty days to review and provide Objections, Recommendations and Comments (the infamous "ORC Report"). We are out of the normal review schedules set by DCA for .this process, but I assume they would still adhere to the established review periods. Once DCA .finds that the EAR is sufficient in meeting the minimum requirements of the Statutes, they will issue a letter of sufficiency. A final Commission hearing must then be held to adopt the EAR. We may then initiate "EAR-based" amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. Chapter 163 establishes a review and adoption schedule forComprehensive Plan amendments.. (This process was "streamlined" in this legislative session, but the rules to enact the new amendment process are not yet available.) The Comprehensive Plan amendment process is similar to the EAR process. A series of workshops and public hearings will be required prior to a transmittal hearing. Once the Commission acts to transmit, DCA will have 45 days to review and continent on the proposed amendments. Once this is completed, and if DCA finds the proposed amendment to be in compliance with Chapter 163, a Notice of Intent will be issued by DCA that the local government intends to adopt the amendments. The Commission may then schedule a public hearing(s) to adopt the Plan amendments. 3 Core Ci Im rovement Pro'ect _ tY P J ATTACHMENT E _ City of Atlantic Beach MAY 13, 2002 COMMISSION MEETING __ __ __ ,,; Public Involvement Plan - 4/04/02 On April 2, 2002, a meeting was held between the City of Atlantic Beach and GAI Consultants-Southeast, Inc.
