Evaluation Criteria, the recommended Needs Plan, an update of Existing coMMlssioNERs N D SE 0
and Committed Projects, and a draft copy of the Cost Feasible Plan
Update. Ms. Bunnewith reported that the "Needs Plan" represented
projects which would be needed between now and the year 2025 to ensure
efficient and safe travel in and around Jacksonville. She further explained
that the Cost Feasible Plan identified projects which could be funded over
the next twenty years and set priorities for expending federal highway
funds.
The proposed use of rapid transit bus service routes were briefly
explained. Ms. Bunnewith pointed out that this type of transportation
would aid in maintaining minimum air quality standards for Duval County
as required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Alan Potter of 374 Second Street felt the proposed height of 2.7' of the
weir to be constructed at Fleet Landing as part of the Core City Project,
would allow saltwater intrusion into the Selva Marina Lagoon which
would kill grass at the golf course and would also kill lawns along the
lagoon.
Bob Totter of 275 11th Avenue thanked the City Manager and Chief of
•
Police for their assistance at a concert held on Veterans' Day. He then
distributed copies of the City Charter and requested that the
Commissioners review and familiarize themselves with its contents.
Stephen Kuti of 1134 Linkside Drive agreed with Mr. Potter's comments
and indicated that he had reviewed an engineering report submitted by
ECT which criticized the Aikenhead and Odom design of the weir. He
said he was also advised by representatives of the St. Johns River Water
Management District that the 2.7' height for the weir was unacceptable.
He also felt that the additional work required under Item 8H could have
been avoided if core samples had been taken on Sherry Drive before the
project began.
3. Unfinished Business from Previous Meeting
A. City Manager's Follow-up Report
City Manager Hanson briefly reviewed each item of his written report,
which is attached and made part of this official record as Attachment A.

concerns regarding the height of the weir. Public Works Director
Kosoy explained that the city had concerns with the original
modeling and design by Aikenhead and Odom (A&O) and ECT
was hired to review the design. Public Works Director Kosoy
indicated that Messrs. Potter and Kuti had reviewed a preliminary
report and a later report indicated that ECT had no problems with
the 2.7' weir height. He further indicated that the weir height was
first designed at 2.6', but was increased to 2.7' when submitted to
the Saint Johns River Water Management district (SJRWMD) in
July.
• Commissioner Waters inquired concerning decorations for Atlantic
Boulevard and Mayport Road and suggested that an ad hoc
committee be formed to look into placing seasonal decorations at
various locations throughout the city.
Mayor Meserve appointed Commissioner Waters to head the committee
and suggested that he work with staff and citizens to come up with ideas to
decorate the city. There were no objections to the appointment.

explained that the ordinance would provide for procedures for
emergency actions by the City Commission.
Mayor Meserve opened the public hearing and invited comments
from the audience.
Pat Pillmore of 995 Camelia Street spoke in opposition to the
proposed ordinance. She stated that from her experience,
emergencies in the City of Jacksonville were handled by a committee
with an attorney in attendance. She felt there was not enough public
information in Atlantic Beach concerning committee actions and the
city did not need another rule to handle its business.
There being no further public comments, the Mayor closed the public
hearing.
• Mayor Meserve stated that the ordinance simply formalized the
procedure which had been used in the past to handle matters which
came up after an agenda had been completed.

second public hearing would be held on November 26, 2001.
Community Development Director Doerr indicated that many of the
changes were long overdue to bring the zoning, subdivision and land
use development regulations into conformance with the
Comprehensive Plan adopted in 1990.
Ms. Doerr reviewed the changes which were recommended during
the October 29, 2001 Workshop. A copy of Ms. Doerr's memo dated
November 2, 2001, listing the changes is attached and made part of
this official record as Attachment B.
It was also noted that Don Wolfson, Chair of the Community
Development Board, had requested that the following intent statement
be added to each zoning classification: "All Development of Land
and Parcels within the (name of the zoning classification)zoning
district shall comply with the (name of the zoning classification)
density limitations as set forth in the adopted Comprehensive Plan for
the City of Atlantic Beach, as may be amended."
During the review, Commissioner Borno pointed out that Section 24-
• 163(a)(1) needed to be changed to require commercial vehicles to be
parked a minimum of twenty feet from the front lot line.
Mayor Meserve then opened the public hearing and the following
citizens spoke concerning the proposed zoning ordinance:
Janell Wilson of 3090 South Third Street, Jacksonville Beach,
spoke concerning the rental of garage apartments and opposed the
rental limitation of ninety days as an infringement on property rights,
and inquired as to how it would be enforced. She felt short term
rentals would have no more impact on the community than long term
rentals and requested that the 90 day minimum be deleted from the
ordinance.
George Bull of 1937 Sevilla Boulevard West, inquired concerning
the staff recommendation for the rezoning of property from RG-1 to
RS-2. He felt several property owners in the area would be entitled to
vested rights to proceed with plans to construct duplexes after the
effective date, if their property was rezoned. He then inquired as to
how to become vested. He indicated that he was working on several
duplex projects which were about 75% complete.
• Mayor Meserve indicated that those concerns would be addressed
under Item 7C.

Barbara Buckman Williams of Santa Nocoochee, Georgia, stated COMMISSIONERS N D S 0
that she was opposed to the zoning change of her property from Open
Rural to Conservation Lands and felt it would be an unfair taking of
her property. She felt the Conservation Lands designation placed too
many restrictions on the property.
Peter Sapia of 1655 Selva Marina Drive stated that he had several
problems with the proposed zoning ordinance which he would put in
writing. Mr. Sapia commented on garage apartments, market and
appraised values, non-conforming structures, and lot sizes for
development of duplexes. Mr. Sapia believed most of the changes
were too restrictive and felt that appeal of the city was its eclectic
character.
Greg Carr of 574 Nautical Boulevard, a boat owner, stated that his
boat and property were clean and neat and suggested a 10' setback
from the property line to allow for boat parking.
Jeri Sabot of 330 First Street, expressed concern that she would not
be able to construct the duplex she had planned under the rezoning of
the core city area(Item 7C).
410 Pat Pillmore of 995 Camelia Street, felt that lower income people
would be hardest hit by the 20' setback. She felt boating was part of
the Florida lifestyle and boats should be allowed to be parked on a
residential lot.
Steve Diebenow of 1301 Riverplace Boulevard, representing Radio
Station WQOP, stated that he appreciated the action of the
Commission to address the station's property.
No one else spoke for or against the proposed ordinance, and the
Mayor closed the public hearing.
Mayor Meserve commented that the ordinance concerning boat
parking was the same as in the past and was not changed from the
original ordinance.
Community Development Director Doerr explained vested rights and
statutory vested rights in detail. Discussion ensued concerning the
effective date of the ordinance and Ms. Doerr suggested the effective
date be January 1, 2002. It was suggested that anyone currently
involved in a project or anyone who is planning to do a project, apply
for vested rights. It was pointed out that vesting determinations were
elmade administratively on a case by case basis.

Meserve confirmed with Community Development Director Doerr
that existing duplexes could be rebuilt if destroyed.
Commissioner Beaver requested that Section 24-163 be readdressed
to change the setback back to 15'from front lot line. He felt the
change would not encourage that many boats to appear.
Commissioner Parsons felt the problem seemed to be that the boats
were parked in front of the house and that was what neighbors
objected to.

Discussion ensued and Commissioner Beaver explained that his
motion addressed the parking of boats only. Commissioner Waters
opposed the change and believed the change would cause cars to be
parked on the streets to accommodate boats in the yards.
• There was no more discussion and the motion carried by a three to
two roll call vote as follows: Commissioners Beaver, Borno and
Mayor Meserve aye and Commissioners Parsons and Waters,
nay.
Community Development Director Doerr comfirmed that the side
yard setbacks would also be 15' under Section 24-163(b)(2).
Commissioner Beaver requested that a copy of the letter Mr. Sapia
stated he would write addressing his concerns be distributed to the
Commission.
Discussion of the definition of"family" and rental properties ensued.
Mayor Meserve explained that the city wanted to limit short term
rentals in family neighborhoods with the ninety day minimum.
Community Development Director Doerr confirmed that the effective
date for the new zoning ordinance would be January 1, 2002.

Mayor Meserve presented the ordinance in full, in writing and
explained that the ordinance would rezone property in the core city
area from RG-1 (two-family) to RS-2 (single-family).
• Discussion ensued concerning zoning map changes. Mayor Meserve
pointed out that the major change to the map would be the rezoning
from RG-1 to RS-2. Ms. Doerr pointed out that the zoning
classification of Conservation land was being created, and at a later
date there would be separate public hearings to rezone the Open Rural
lands to Conservation land. She pointed out that the land in question
had been designated Conservation land in the Comprehensive Plan
and Future Land Use Map since 1990, and now the zoning was being
brought into compliance with the ordinance adopted in 1990
establishing the Future Land Use Map and Comprehensive Plan.
Community Development Director Doerr noted that the ordinance
was properly noticed as required by Chapter 166, Florida Statutes.
Mayor Meserve opened the public hearing and the following
citizen(s) spoke concerning the proposed rezoning ordinance:
Douglas Brown of Sun and Ski Development of Cincinnati, Ohio
stated that he was presently developing two pieces of property into
townhomes in the core city area for Mr. Bull. He indicated that he
wished to be vested to continue the plans for the townhomes. Mr.

Development Director Doerr the following morning to discuss the
plans and vesting.

Peter Sapia of 1655 Selva Marina Drive spoke in opposition to the
zoning change and felt it was not in the best interest of the city to
eliminate duplexes in the core city area. He felt a duplex provided a
good entry level home, and provided higher income for the city
through higher tax values and double utility revenues.
No one else spoke for or against the proposed ordinance and the
Mayor closed the public hearing. Mayor Meserve reported that the
final reading of the ordinance and public hearing would take place
November 26, 2001.

Lee Wiseman of Camp Dresser and McKee made a presentation
concerning the findings from the video logging of the four wells in the
Buccaneer District. He indicated that the purpose of the video logging
was to evaluate the condition of existing wells, to determine if the well
condition affected production and yield, to perform maintenance on the
wells as needed, and to make recommendations for future water supplies.
Mr. Wiseman reported on the condition of each well and the required
repairs. He recommended that two old, low production wells be
abandoned and that a third well be abandoned within three to five years.

9. City Manager Reports:
The City Manager's written report is attached and made part of this
official record as Attachment D. In addition to the written report,
City Manager Hanson provided information on the following item(s):
• Dutton Island construction had been stopped temporarily due
to a surveying error of elevations in the area where the septic
tank and comfort stations were to be constructed. He
indicated that a redesign would be needed because the present
site was too low for the septic tank installation.
The City Manager stated that Landers Atkins had found a
new site for the septic tank,but it would require reissuance of
the permit. He indicated that the new site required more fill
dirt, but the city hoped to get it from the Port Authority who
were giving the city a grant of up to $40,000 to fill in the lake
on the island. City Manager Hanson hoped that there would
be no additional cost to the city for the work and indicated that
he would report back to the Commission as soon as the issues
were worked out.

MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor
and Members of the City Commission
FROM: •
City Manage
SUBJECT: Follow-u Report
Dutton Island Fishing Pier; Some questions were asked about the design and materials for the
proposed Dutton Island fishing pier. The pier is to be made out of wood with an L-shaped
configuration and a covered area at the end. A drawing dated June 21, 2001 from Edwards
Engineering Inc is attached for your information.
Liability for Sea Turtle Patrol; A question was raised at the last Commission Meeting about
4 whether or not the City of Atlantic Beach was in any way liable for the actions of the Sea Turtle
Patrol on the beach. The City has no written agreements with the Sea Turtle Patrol other than the
lease of office space at the Adele Grage building. However, on April 27, 1992,the City
Commission approved the use of an ATV on the beach for the Sea Turtle Patrol from May
through November. With this understanding, the City Attorney has recommended that the City
be protected by an insurance policy on the ATV, that the City be named as an additional insured
on the policy and that the Sea Turtle Patrol sign an indemnity agreement in favor of the City.
There are two options to obtain the necessary insurance. The first would be to appoint the Sea
Turtle Patrol as an authorized agent working on behalf of the City, which would then bring the
operation under the City's insurance coverage. Not only would this coverage include the
liability for use of vehicles on the beach but would also provide workers comp coverage for all
Sea Turtle Patrol volunteers. Without additional information on the Sea Turtle Patrol's use of
volunteers on the beach, it would be difficult to estimate the additional cost of insurance to the
City. However, it could be extensive. The second option would be to require that the Sea Turtle
Patrol maintain liability insurance on their use of the ATV on the beach. It is possible that
Atlantic Beach could enter into an agreement with the Sea Turtle Patrol requiring that insurance
be purchased and maintained and that the City could in turn pay the Sea Turtle Patrol for services
an amount approximately equal to the insurance cost. City staff has not yet been able to obtain
an estimate on the cost of this insurance.
Fire Department Use of Donated Funds; The Commission has been made aware of the private
_ donation of$1,000 each to the Police and Fire Departments resulting from the September 11th
terrorist attacks. It has already been reported that the Police Department will use the $1,000 to
purchase two mountain bicycles for specialty police services. The Fire Department has now
AGENDA ITEM#3A
NOVEMBER 12,2001
come to a decision on the best use of the funds. For training purposes, they would like to
purchase a TV, VCR and DVD. Unless the Commission objects, they will be authorized to use
the funds for these purposes.
Property Along Seminole Road Ditch; A discussion was held at the last Commission Meeting
about past attempts by City staff to clean up the west side of the drainage ditch that runs along
Seminole Road. Some of the property on the backside of the ditch has been maintained by the
adjoining owners, although most of it has not. The ownership of this property is somewhat
unusual. When this subdivision was developed many years ago, the developer (Five Bs Realty
Ltd) retained a ten foot wide strip running parallel to the drainage ditch and between the backside
of the lots fronting on Sea Oats Drive and the City right-of-way for Seminole Road. The
developer, which is still in existence as a corporate entity, has sold off these ten-foot strips to six
of the adjoining property owners in this two-block area, but retains ownership to the rest. The
developer has indicated that they are willing to sell their remaining interest to the City.
The City's Code Enforcement Officer has looked over the situation and feels that the City could
cite the owners who have purchased the adjacent strips for failure to cut the underbrush back.
However, it may be more problematic to cite the remaining parcels owned by the developer, as
they are essentially undeveloped tracts of land. It would not seem reasonable to cite the
individual property owners for failure to maintain their rear property unless the City was also
going to find a way to clean up the adjoining strips.
It was also reported in the last Commission Meeting that an attempt made by the City to get these
lots cleaned up several years ago met with some opposition from the adjoining property owners.
While it appears that it is possible for the City to get this strip of property cleared/cleaned, it
would take a considerable amount of time from City crews or contractors to do the work, it
would possibly require the purchase of some right-of-way and may generate some opposition
from adjoining property owners. Before such a project is started, the City Commission would
need to establish it as a priority.
Christmas Lights; A question was raised about the City putting up additional Christmas lights.
Presently, City staff spends a considerable amount of time and money in wrapping the palm trees
in the Town Center area and otherwise putting on the Tree Lighting Ceremony. Additional
decorations could be purchased, although places to locate them may be somewhat limited. There
is no A/C power on the Atlantic Boulevard medians. Some open areas in the Town Center area
could be further decorated and it is possible that pole mounted displays could be installed in the
Town Center area and possibly in other commercial areas. The staff has reviewed a number of
vendors and found several displays (lit animal forms, stars, Christmas trees, etc) ranging in price
from about $100 to $300 each. Also, holiday banners could be purchased and installed in the
Town Center area for about $100 each.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Sherry Drive Change Order 2
SUBMITTED BY: Robert S. Kosoy, P.E., Director of Public Works 'rAt."----
DATE: November 2, 2001
BACKGROUND:
We advised the City Commission at the 10/8/01 meeting that we had encountered unforeseen
underground items under Sherry Drive. These items included an abandoned concrete vault at
6th Street, logs at 5th Street and trees at 4th Street.
We requested the geotechnical engineer,Ellis & Associates, Inc., to suggest various options for
dealing with the problem, and we received a letter from them, dated October 9, 2001. On
October 10, 2001 a letter was sent to Callaway Contracting, Inc., requesting prices for the
various solutions. We received prices from Callaway in a letter dated October 17, 2001. These
prices compared reasonably well with the Florida Department of Transportation's average
weighted prices for similar work.
lir An analysis of the costs for each proposed solution is attached, with the total cost for Option 1
Y P P P
being$75, 143.25, Option 2 being$33,808.10, and Option 3 being$25,556.90. A fourth option
would be to use Option 1 between 4th and 5th Streets (where a new 29"x 45" stormwater pipe
will be installed), and Option 3 between 5th and 6th Streets, (where no drainage work is planned),
for a total of$55,406.10.
BUDGET: The total additional work is proposed to cost$75,143.25, which,
added to the previously approved Change Order 1 dated August 13,
2001, will be funded from previously approved 10% contingency
amount on the project, which is $126,951.02. This will leave a
balance of$31,372.49 within the project contingency.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Option 1, a full depth removal between 4th and 6th Streets
for$75,143.25, adding 60 calendar days to the current contract
completion date 1/26/02, with a new completion date of 3/27/02.
This Option provides a long-term solution with the least potential
for future problems.
ATTACHMENTS: Letter from Callaway providing prices, dated 10/17/01.
Letter to Callaway requesting prices, dated 10/10/01.

RE: Change Order Prices for Rebuilding of Portion of Sherry Drive
Dear Mr. Kirby:
As discussed over the past several weeks, we have encountered a great deal of tree logs, trees, and
a brick vault, predominantly between 4th and 6th Street. I discussed this matter with our geotechnical
engineer, Ellis & Associates, Inc., and am attaching their report dated 10/9/01. Please furnish prices
for each of the three possible remedies listed below for rebuilding Sherry Drive in this area:
1) Completely demuck the area of unsuitable material. Provide this cost in cubic
yards of unsuitable material to be removed and select backfill to be replaced.
Assume the worst case scenario that the entire width of Sherry Drive will need
to be demucked to a depth of 6', between 4th and 6th Street.
2) Over-excavate to a minimum depth of 3' below the pavement base, and replace
with compacted structural backfill. (Specification attached.) Provide this cost in
cubic yards of over-excavation and compacted structural backfill.
3) Over-excavate to a minimum depth of 2' below the pavement base, install a
woven geotextile fabric (Marafi 500X or equivalent), and place compacted
structural backfill. Provide this cost in cubic yards of over-excavation and
compacted structural backfill, and square yards of geotextile fabric.
Please provide these additional costs by Friday, October 19, 2001. Thank you for your assistance in
this matter.

Dear Eng-Kosoy:
In response to your request,Ellis &Associates,Inc. (F&A) is pleased to provide the following
recommendations relative to the unsuitable material encountered along Smay trivvete>lnic doling construction of tre project drainage improvements. FAA performed previous
explorations for the subject project, The results of our previous work were submitted in our reports
dated April 12,2000 and April ll, 2001.
The following information vea.s supplied to us by you.
1. While doing the transverse water line croeeings,an abandotled bof
k
vault was encountered at 6th St,and some logs,some buried portions
trees were encountered at 5th St.and a mat of trees at 4th St.
2. The trees at 4th St:-eet consisted of palm and pine,12-15"diameter,
3 1/2-4'deep,and where encountered as a Mat placed in the longitudinal
direction of the roadway and spaced 6.12' apart.
•
3, The'only logs or portions of trees,removed,so far,were those
necessary to construct the transverse crossings,
Based on the above information,it is our opinion that removal of all the buried logs and omit
materials (PT)and backfilling with compacted structural fill soils within the affected areas of the
roadways will result in roadways with normal service and maintenance expectancy. However,if
dcmueking of the unsuitable materiaiia in their entirety is cost prohibitive for thc
ofptoJect below as a
triramum,the deleterious soils can be over-excavated to a minimum d depth of removal bl ow be

Dear Eng.Kosoy:
As requested,the following are structural fill recommendations.
• Structural fill is defined as a non-plastic, inorganic, granular soil having less than 10 percent
material passing the No, 200 mesh sieve and containing less than 4 percent organic material.
Structural fill or backfill required for backdilling the over-excavated areas should be placed in loose
• lifts not exceeding 12 inches in thickness and'compacted by the use of a vibratory drum roller having
a minimum static, at-drum weight on the order of 4 tons. Typically, the material should exhibit
moisture contents within+2 percent of the Modified Proctor optimum moisture content(ASTM D
1557)during the compaction operations. Compaction should continue until densities of at least 95
percent of the Modified Proctor maximum dry density(ASTM D 1557)have been achieved within
each 12-inch lift. If hand-held compaction equipment is used,the lift thickness should be reduced to
6 inches. It should be noted that soils with more than 10 to 12 percent passing the No.200 sieve will
be more difficult to compact due to their nature to retain soil moisture and may require drying.
If you have any questions or if we may be of any further service,please contact us.
Very truly yours,

MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor
and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jim Han
City Manager
SUBJECT: City Mana er's Report
Jordan Park Ribbon Cutting; The Community Center at Jordan Park has now been
completed and a ribbon cutting has been scheduled for Saturday morning, November 17th
at 9:00 am. Elected officials, members of the press and the public are all invited to
attend.
• Quarterly Strategic Plan Report; The second Quarterly Report for the 01-02 strategic
plan year has been distributed to the Commission last week. Two items need additional
comment. The first is street lighting under master planning. While this was not filled in
on the Master Plan Report, several actions have been taken in recent months. The Police
Department has surveyed street lighting conditions in the Marsh Oaks area and made
recommendations for the installation of several new lights. The JEA installed the new
lights where existing poles were available. For several of the new lights, no poles were
located in the immediate vicinity. JEA offered to install these at the City's expense, and
they have been authorized to complete the installation within the next month.
Generally the City has streetlights for the purpose of traffic and pedestrian safety on
public streets. These are generally located at intersections and in a maximum of 300-foot
intervals in developed areas. However, because of the many trees in Atlantic Beach,
additional lights are sometimes approved. Lighting requests are submitted to the Police
Department for consideration of the specific area and other conditions.
Parks and Recreation Master Plan; Staff recommended to the Commission that the work
involved in putting together a Master Plan for Parks and Recreation facilities could be
done "in house"rather than paying a consultant. This will be a job jointly shared by our
Community Development and Recreation Directors and a report on the steps to be taken
to prepare a plan will be presented at the November 11th Commission Meeting.
