The meeting was called to order by Commissioner Johansen, Mayor-
Pro-tem.
Minutes of the meeting of April 25th, 1960 were approved as written
upon motion of Mr. Moore, seconded by Mr. Claiborne.
Mr. Johansen recognized visitors present and called for any busi-
ness from the floor. There was none.
A letter was presented from Wm. D.L. Giles, Director of the Jack-
sonville Beach School Patrol asking for a donation of $375.00 to
cover the expenses of 5 Atlantic Beach boys going from the Atlantic-
Neptune School with the Patrol to Washington, D.C. to the National
Competitive Drill. He advised that the Atlantic Beach boys have
been a great asset to the group and have maintained an A-B average
in their studies. The opinion was expressed that the work done by
the Patrol is good , but that there was not enough time given to
consider the matter, since the boys leave the last of this week.
Mr. McClung spoke on behalf of the boys and the good assistance they
are giving the Police at the school and other points, and that if
we could donate the money this year, that he thinks that by next
year the police would have time to raise the funds to send them
next year. There was a great deal of discussion on the matter,
and Mr. Johansen suggested that money be given from the Police Bene-
volent Fund for the 5 Patrol boys and that the police start solici-
tation right away to re-imburse the Fund. This, too was discussed
following which Mr. Moore moved that funds for the trip be donated
from the Police Benevolent Fund, if agreeable with them, and that
the Commission authorize the Police to raise money by solicitation
to re-imburse their Fund, seconded by Dr. Whitehurst and carried.
The City Manager advised that Mr. Walter J. Parks, our Engineer ad-
vises that after checking the Estimates on the Joe Reinertson of
Jacksonville contract that he finds that there is a balance due the
contractor of $4,409.67 which he recommends be paid. This amount is

in final settlement on the contract and is approved by the inspec-
tor and Mr. Waggoner recommends payment of same. Mr. Moore moved
that the payment be made as recommended, seconded by Dr. Whitehurst
and carried.
Mr. Waggoner advised that in order to resurface the streets that
absolutely need work to be done on them, it will take approximately
$2, 000.00 more than set up in the budget. He recommended that
the additional amount be spent at this time, for if not done now
then it would take considerable more to do them at a later date
due to their condition being worsened in the meantime, and the cost
would be higher on smaller quantity to be done. The matter was
discussed and Mr. Moore moved that the City Manager ' s recommenda-
tion be accepted and he be authorized to take bids as suggested,
seconded by Dr. Whitehurst and carried.
Mr. Waggoner advised that while at the meeting in Tallahassee
he had been given a portion of the Master Plan for the City, and
he would like the Commission acting as a committee to meet with him
to go over and study this part of the plan which he has. It was
so agreed.
It was advised that an error was made in computing the footage on
the Special Sewer Assessment Roll for Lots 11 and W 23.7 feet of
Lot 12, Club Manor; and an error in charging for a lateral to
Lot 45, Block 11 as none was put in as this lot is being combined
under one ownership with Lots 43 andwZ of 41 in Block 11. Dr.
Whitehurst presented Resolution #60-8 specifying a clerk 's error
on these and directing that the Special Sewer Assessment Roll be
corrected, seconded by Mr. Claiborne and carried. Copy of Resolu-
tion #60-8 is attached to these minutes and made a part thereof.
Mr. Johansen presented and caused to be read in full Ordinance
#40-60-2 which Ordinance with notice was posted in line with
Charter requirements. The Commission went into session for Public
Hearing on said Ordinance which covers 4 year franchise with the
Southern Bell Tel. & Tel. Co. No one appeared against the
franchise whereupon Dr. Whitehurst moved its adoption on second
and final reading, seconded by Mr. Moore and having been duly
considered the vote was
Aye: Claiborne, Moore, Whitehurst, Johansen.
Nay: None
Absent: Howell
Whereupon Mr. Johansen declared said motion carried and Ordinance
#40-60-2 adopted on second and final reading.

Mr. Waggoner advised that he has no further report on the Saltair
lots which would be needed to make playground area complete. He
hopes to have something on this by next meeting.
Mr. Claiborne asked about the moving of the debris from the old
Sandbar site. Mr. Waggoner has been in contact with those involved
in this wrecking of the building and will again take the matter
up with them, to see that the work is finished.
There being no further business the meeting was declared adjourned
by Mr. Johansen, Mayor Pro-tem.
