The Recreation Advisory Board recommendsthat the City of Atlantic Beach budget $100,000 for the construction of a skateboard park in Russell Park. • Timeframe for completion-Spring 2002 • Submit Grant Application to FloridaDEP for matching funds • Finalize park design based on preliminary concepts (see attached) Attachments: • Board minutes February 27,2001regarding Skate Park Recommendations-Key Questions • Initial design drawings • AGENDA ITEM#2F MAY 14,2001 • TO: Jim Hanson, City Manager City Commissioners Timmy Johnson, Recreation Director FR: DeJean Melancon, Chair Recreation Advisory Board RE: Skate Park Recommendation The Board met on February 27, 2001 to discuss Questions regarding the construction of a Skateboard Park. The following responds to the questions submitted by the City Manager on Jan. 24,2001. 1. Question: Should the City construct a facility specifically targeted for kids utilizing skateboards in Atlantic Beach? Response: The majority of Board members voted "YES" 2. Question: Where should the facility be located? Response: The majority of the Board was in favor of Russell Park. It is central to the core city, space is available and it provides fire and safety facilities nearby. Both the Tennis Players and Baseball Members expressed concern for the potential of increased vandalism and damage to existing facilities. Jordan Park • was also identified as an alternate location. 3. Question: What equipment should be located in this facility, what size would the facility take and how much would it cost? Response: Prior to the meeting Board Members questioned individuals in the community and several families attended the Board meeting held on Feb.27. The following provides some beginning guidelines that should be further researched; • 50x60 area may be too small. A series of winding sidewalks and smaller skill areas may be preferable to a single large area, • develop a"street course" with obstacles (grind poles, small jumps, etc.) instead of a large pad with several small jumps, • jumps should be challenging and not exceed 4ft. in height, • use a"poured concrete base" instead of prefab materials. This will allow for greater creativity in the overall design and be easier to maintain. 4. Question: If such a facility were built, would the kids presently using Bull park voluntarily use it? Response: Yes, most individuals said they would prefer to skate at a location intended and designed for skating. It was suggested that posting of signs and some level of enforcement be considered. 5. How much use would a new skateboarding facility in the alternate location get? • Response: A tremendous amount. 6. What other issues should the Commission consider? AGENDA ITEM#2F MAY 14,2001 1 • • The skateboard park should be "challenging" for ages 5-15 years. Other facilities are available for more advanced skating. • Will the skateboard area be lighted? • What guidelines can be established to protect the existing Tennis and Baseball facilities? Board Recommendation: • authorize the Board to assemble a Design Team comprised of Board Members, Community Members and Staff. • develop a Skateboard Park Design with preliminary pricing information during the month of March • provide recommendations to the Commission by the 2nd meeting in April. 0 410 • . ••• • o I. all + ..- lel.o'( G21,0n 01 OFT PALL - / I __v_._‘ / / / _ -3-.

POTTER, SR. 374 Second Street 1 Atlantic Beach,Florida 32233 September 30, 1999 Mr. David Thompson Acting City Manager City of Atlantic Beach 800 Seminole Road Atlantic Beach, FL 32233 Re: (a) Sewage Pumping Station"A" (b) Ten-inch Manifolded Force Main Dear Mr. Thompson: For many years, the Howell Park storm drainage system has been subjected to the overflow of raw sewage from the Atlantic Beach sewage collection system. • A major reason for the raw sewage overflow has been the inability of the Sewage Pumping Station"A"to handle (i)the raw sewage flow to the pumping station along with (ii) the infiltration of storm water into the gravity raw sewage collection system leading to Sewage Pumping station"A". Noteworthy, each of the two sewage pumps installed in Sewage Pumping Station "A" is properly sized and capable of pumping the raw sewage flow that reaches that station from the contributing raw sewage collection system. The contributing developed land area is approximately 26C acres. The reasonable 16-hour per day sewage flow is 318,500 gallons or 330 gallons per minute. The force main from the Pumping Station "A" (assuming it is an 8-inch diameter pipe) to Eleventh Street is adequate for the flow. You and I were advised by the Public Works Director that, at Eleventh Street, the Sewage Pumping Station "A" force main is "manifolded" with four (4) other force mains into a single 10-inch sewage force main for the approximately 2,000-feet distance to the Atlantic Beach Waste Water Treatment Plant. Noteworthy, the developed land area served by the additional four (4) sewage pumping stations is approximately 666 acres. The reasonable 16-hour per day raw sewage flow is 816,800 gallons or 851 gallons per minute. • Collectively, the developed land area being served by the manifolded 10-inch sewage force main is 926 acres. The reasonable 16-hour per day raw sewage flow is 1,135,300 gallons or 1,181 gallons per minute. • Mr. David Thompson Acting City Manager • City of Atlantic Beach September 30, 1999 Page 2 of 2 Clearly, the approximately 2,000-feet long 10-inch diameter sewage force main from (point of manifold) Eleventh Street to the Atlantic Beach Waste Water Treatment Plant IS NOT ADEQUATE for the normal raw sewage flow that must be conveyed. The addition of wet weather-high tide infiltration to the raw sewage collection system only makes an impossible situation worse. It is my opinion that the proper remedy to this existing situation requires the construction of a 12-inch diameter sewage force main (parallel with the existing 10-inch diameter sewage force main) from the Eleventh Street "manifold point" to the Atlantic Beach Waste Water Treatment Plant (ABWWTP). Additionally, it is my opinion that the proposed construction of a master raw sewage pumping station at the ABWWTP is not only a waste of$300,000.00 or more of public funds but also an improper engineering solution to the problem. Please advise if you desire any additional information. -r� Respectfully submitted, Al W. Potter, Sr. AWP/amh 11. IN ATTACHMENT D MAY 14, 2001 COMMISSION MEETING • May 8, 2001 MEMORANDUM TO: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission FROM: Jim HansMillib i y 'anager SUBJECT: Follow-u. terns The following are responses to questions and requests for additional information that were made in recent City Commission meetings. Community Center Study; A report was made in the City Commission meeting of February 15, 2001 which included estimated costs for the renovation of the Pic-N-Save building at 725 Atlantic Boulevard, information about the YMCA organization, the capital costs of the YMCA in Ponte Vedra, the possible cost of construction of a new community center in Atlantic Beach • and several points to consider as to the feasibility of such a center. It was recommended in that report that the commission should conduct a feasibility/market study at an estimated cost of $20,000 to $25,000 and to solicit funding from other government and private sources to share in the cost of such a study. Since that time, two other entities have committed to sharing a portion of the cost. The Boselli Foundation has committed to pay $2500 and the City of Neptune Beach has committed $2000. The balance of money needed to perform a feasibility/market study is estimated to range from $15,500 to $20,000. The money in the Police Department's Drug Forfeiture and Contraband Fund can be spent for this purpose. A major consideration for a community center for Atlantic Beach is in providing recreational activities for teenagers which should reduce drug and alcohol use. If the City Commission wishes to proceed with the study, it is recommended that we use the City's Drug and Contraband Forfeiture Funds to pay the balance of costs not covered by other entities for the feasibility/market study. Law Enforcement Block Grant; The City has received notice of approval of a$10,000 Law Enforcement Block Grant for upgrading the software for the Police Records Management System. The City Commission had previously authorized the Mayor to sign the grant paperwork for the application. • AGENDA ITEM#3D MAY 14,2001 • Waterline Relocation on Mayport Road Completed Under Budget; Last year the City Commission authorized the contract with Superior Construction, Inc for the relocation of a waterline on Mayport Road in connection with the Flyover Project. Superior Construction is the contractor being used by JTA for the Flyover construction. The contract price authorized was $387,914.00 However, the final construction cost totaled $271,708.00 which was $116,206.00 under the contract amount. Much of this savings is made possible by working closely with the JTA to identify construction cost savings during the project. Boil Water Notice; Another boil water notice was issued in the Mayport Road area. On May 3rd, a notice was given to residents of the Atlantic Arms Apartments to boil water as a precautionary measure. The boil water notice has since been rescinded. The problem occurred when valves were shut to allow for the annual meter testing. The valves at this location were a very old type which broke when they were shut off. They have since been replaced with more modern devices. "Dump" Complaint at 457 Sailfish Drive; At the January 22nd City Commission meeting, Mr. Evan Odgan of 528 Royal Palms Drive complained that the resident at 457 Sailfish Drive was operating a dump. The owner of the property was brought before the Code Enforcement Board on May 1st and found guilty of illegal outside storage and running a junkyard (scrape metal business) in a residential area. At the time of the hearing Mr. Brown's property was cleaned up. However, as a repeat offender Mr. Brown was fined $7,500 and assessed $815.50 in administrative fees. The fine was deferred pending any future repeat violation at which time it • would become retroactive, and would be separate from any additional board actions. Mr. Brown was given three months to pay the administrative fees. Other Reports; Submitted as separate staff reports for follow-up by the Police Department include the petition from residents in the Magnolia Street area for installation of speed bumps and a report on the possible use of a jet ski for Atlantic Beach lifeguards. • M ATTACHMENT E MAY 14, 2001 COMMISSION MEETING • City of Atlantic Beach Atlantic Beach City Commission Staff Report Agenda Item: Audit Procurement Policy Date: May 1, 2001 Submitted By: Nelson Van Liere, Finance Director Background: The issue to rotate or not rotate has come up from time to time and the discussions have led to the desire to adopt some sort of rotation policy. Upon looking deeper into the issue of rotation policies, I have found that the mandatory rotation of auditors is uncommon. Most cities simply require that a Request for Proposals for multi-year services be performed every four to six years. Auditor rotation helps to preserve the auditor independence and provides the benefit of a fresh perspective. On the other hand, there are some drawbacks. These drawbacks typically include an increase in cost, retaining auditors unfamiliar with the City's background and a dramatic increase in staff time devoted to the audit. Because there are a limited number of qualified firms in the area willing to do governmental audits, the reduction in competition caused by mandatory rotation may also drive the price up. An alternative to the rotation of firms for the purpose of gaining a fresh perspective is to require • in the contract that senior members of the audit team be rotated. This gives the fresh perspective without loosing the continuity of the audit process. I believe that the City Commission should not restrict the City with a mandatory rotation policy. Excluding a firm, which has done an excellent job for the City over the years, may not be in the best interest of the City. It would be wise to look at the competition before deciding to rotate. If after hearing the presentations from the qualified firms, the City Commission does not believe that retaining the incumbent firm is in the best interest of the City,they can simply exercise their voting rights at that time and vote for a new firm. Budget: There will be no impact to the current year's budget. Recommendations: 1.) Delete the fourth paragraph of the proposed Audit Procurement Policy; "No accounting firm or public accountant shall perform the audit for more than six (6) consecutive years". 2.) Adopt the attached proposed Audit Procurement Policy with the change above, requiring the City to undertake a full-scale competitive process for the procurement of independent auditors, consistent with legal requirements. Attachments: Proposed Audit Procurement Policy • Governmental Finance Officer's Association Recommended Practice on Audit Procurement AGENDA ITEM#8B MAY 14,2001 • Audit Procurement Policy The City of Atlantic Beach will periodically undertake a full-scale competitive process for the selection of independent auditors, consistent with applicable legal requirements. The competitive auditor selection process will be similar to that which is described in Fl. Statutes sec 11.45. The procedures to be followed will promote competition among qualified firms taking into account their capabilities, adequacy of available personnel, past record, and experience with governmental audits. The City of Atlantic Beach will award a multi-year contract of 4 years with two one-year options to extend. The City Commission will be required to approve each extension. The multi-year contract will enable audit firms to spread the initial start up costs over a longer period thus helping to reduce fees and provide continuity of the audit process for both the audit firm and the City. No accounting firm or public accountant shall perform the audit for more than six(6) consecutive years. The City will appoint an Audit Selection Committee to make a selection of the top three • qualified audit firms using a competitive selection process. The Audit Selection Committee shall adopt procedures for evaluating the various firms; they shall have discussions with those firms, and may require public presentations to the City Commission by no fewer than three firms regarding the qualifications, approach to the audit and the ability to furnish the required services. If fewer than three firms desire to perform the services, the Audit Selection Committee shall recommend to the City Commission such firms as it determines to be qualified. If the City Commission receives more than one proposal for the engagement from the committee, the City Commission may rank, in order of preference, the firms to perform the engagement. The firm ranked first may then negotiate a contract with the City Commission giving, among other things, a basis of its fees for the engagement. If negotiations with the firm ranked first fail, negotiations with that firm shall be formally terminated and the City Commission shall then undertake negotiations with the second ranked firm. This process shall continue until a contract is negotiated. The City may not conduct negotiations with more than one firm at a time. If the City Commission is unable to negotiate a successful contract with any of the selected firms, the Audit Selection Committee shall select additional firms, and the City Commission shall continue negotiations in accordance with the preceding process until an agreement is • reached. AGENDA ITEM#8B MAY 14,20001 • GFOA Recommended Practice Audit Procurement (1996) Background. The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) has long recommended that state and local governmental entities obtain independent audits of their financial statements performed in accordance with the appropriate professional auditing standards. Properly performed audits play a vital role in the public sector by helping to preserve the integrity of the public finance functions and by maintaining citizens' confidence in their elected leaders. Recommendation. GFOA makes the following recommendations regarding the selection of auditing services: 1. The scope of the independent audit should encompass not only the fair presentation of the general purpose (i.e., combined) financial statements, but also the fair presentation of the financial statements of individual funds and account groups. The cost of extending full audit coverage to the financial statements of individual funds and account groups can be justified by the additional degree of assurance provided. Nevertheless,the selection of the appropriate scope of the independent audit ultimately remains a matter of professional judgment. • Accordingly, those responsible for securing independent audits should make their decision concerning the appropriate scope of the audit engagement based upon their particular government's specific needs and circumstances, consistent with applicable legal requirements. 2. Governmental entities should enter into multiyear agreements when obtaining the services of independent auditors. Such multiyear agreements can take a variety of different forms (e.g., a series of single-year contracts), consistent with applicable legal requirements. Such agreements allow for greater continuity and help to minimize the potential for disruption in connection with the independent audit. Multiyear agreements can also help to reduce audit costs by allowing auditors to recover certain "start-up" costs over several years, rather than over a single year. 3. Governmental entities should periodically undertake a full-scale competitive process for the selection of independent auditors, consistent with applicable legal requirements. This process should actively seek the participation of all qualified firms, including the current auditors, assuming that the past performance of the current auditors has proven satisfactory. 4. The audit procurement process should be structured so that the principal factor in the selection of an independent auditor is the auditor's ability to perform a quality audit. In no case should price be allowed to serve as the sole criterion for the selection of an independent auditor. • 11 MI ATTACHMENT F _ MAY 14, 2001 COMMISSION MEETING • Memorandum Subject: Referendum on Voting methods in Atlantic Beach Discussion: Currently The Charter of Atlantic Beach specifies the composition of the Commission and outlines voting procedures. A copy of the applicable section is included for information. In the last several meetings of the Commission, citizens have brought before us the issue of how we elect Commissioners and how to better insure representation of all areas of our community. To date the Commission has taken no action. I believe we would all agree that encouraging more participation in seeking political office by citizens from all parts of the community is a desirable goal. I do, however, have significant concerns that because of our small population, becoming overly restrictive in requirements to run for elective office would "turn off'otherwise well qualified candidates. It is noteworthy in my mind that several elections in recent times had unopposed candidates, an unhealthy trend. I would, therefore request consideration of offering our citizens an alternative to the current Charter. Recommendation: That the Commission develop and approve an ordnance authorizing a referendum for the voters to consider changing Sec. 5 of the Charter. • The proposed change would modify the requirements and voting method for Commissioner seats 2-5. Two seats would remain as at-large seats elected by the total electorate. One seat would require residency of candidates and election by the voters in precincts 3F and 3S and one seat would require residency and election by voters in precincts 3G and 3H. Seat 1, the Mayor-Commissioner, would remain an at-large seat with a two-year term of office. • 0 CHARTER § 6 Sec. 3. Form of government.
