u. Miscellaneous
The City Manager stated that the city had aquired two vehicles and he
wanted to discuss with the Commission the disposition of the vehicles.
One was a 1979 MG. The Naval Intelligence Service made a narcotics buy
in October, 1986 that resulted in the confiscation of the vehicle. The
final judgement has been in the name of Atlantic Beach but the task force
was not even in operation at the time of the confiscation, and for that
reason the Chief of Police felt the Naval Investigative Services should
be entitled to the car. He stated that due to the fact that the car was
in the name of Atlantic Beach, it was up to the City Commission to act
to transfer the vehicle to the NIS. Following discussion, the City
Attorney advised he saw no problem with the transfer.
Mr. Fellows also reported the Task Force activity had confiscated a
1975 Mercury Station Wagon that had a $281.00 outstanding lien and
also needed repairs. After evaluating the situation, the city did not
feel it would be worth the money and effort to utilize the vehicle,
but Jacksonville Beach said they would satisfy the lien and use the
car if the Commission would transfer the vehicle to them. The City
Attorney asked the Police Chief if he was following the State Statute
on disposing of surplus property, as he did not wish to set a preceden:.
Following a lengthy discussion, the following motion was moved:
Motion: Authorize the transfer of the two vehicles. Edwards x x

employees, there will be a Senior Patrol Officer position that would re-
quire certain procedures for a person to apply for same, including a
written examination, also at least five years of service, and duties
