Cord Byrd, State Representative, took the floor to address the Commission. Mr. Byrd gave an update of
legislation passed for the medical marijuana law, transformative education bill, and FDOT study about

with the City to present their study and findings to the public about whether or not to reduce the speed
limit.
With the help of Senator Bean, Mr. Byrd reported funding from the state has been secured for the
Beaches Area Historical Society, the Beaches Fine Arts Series, and renovation for the Experimental
Theater.
Mr. Byrd extended his appreciation to the Commission for their willingness to work with him in his
representation of his district for the state.
Discussion ensued about the FDOT meeting. Mayor Reeves stated the City Clerk's Office will post the
notice for the meeting to be held on July 18, 2017 at 2:30 PM in the Commission Chamber.
There were no further questions or comments. The Commission extended their thanks and appreciation
to State Representative Byrd.
Mayor Reeves spoke about a previous comment he made about JEA underground cable. He clarified his
June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
statement by saying that in the process of installing underground cable, JEA said they could not
guarantee roots would not be damaged or killed. JEA has offered to provide a presentation at a future
Commission meeting to inform the public of their tree trimming process and procedures.
Mayor Reeves explained the process for the public comments and opened the Courtesy of the Floor to
Visitors. City Clerk Bartle called each speaker to the podium.
Sally Clemons, 1638 Park Terrace W., Atlantic Beach, congratulated Mayor Reeves for his
recognition as a 2017 Home Rule Hero by the Florida League Of Cities (FLOC).
Lisa Harold, 659 Sherry Dr., Atlantic Beach, stated she is concerned with the proposed safe routes to
school path and the proximity to the roads. She expressed the need for usable, safe sidewalks to keep
our kids off the roads.
Mike Whalen, 1420 Mayport Rd., Atlantic Beach, said he has been reviewing the budget and noted
the funding for the Seminole Road improvements, but no mention of Section H in the budget. Mr.
Whalen stated he would appreciate the Commission's consideration for Section H improvements.
Nancy Whittington, 1861 Beachside Ct., Atlantic Beach, congratulated Mayor Reeves for his
recognition as a 2017 Home Rule Hero by the FLOC. Ms. Whittington thanked the Commission for
changing the parking hours on 18th St., and asked for consideration for changing the 19`h St. parking
hours. Ms. Whittington inquired about mosquito spraying.
3. Unfinished Business from Previous Meetings
A. Public Hearing- WAIV17-0001, Request for a waiver as permitted by Section 17-52 to
allow a sign partially in the public right-of-way requiring Commission approval by
Section 17-42(13) and to increase the maximum sign height from 8 feet as required by
Section 17-29(c)(1) to 12 feet at Saltair Section 1 Lots 765 and 766 (aka 617 Atlantic
Boulevard).
Planner Derek Reeves submitted a handout to the City Clerk for distribution to the Commission.
Planner Reeves stated the Commission previously requested the applicant to submit an engineered
drawing, which was received on Friday. The Building Official has not reviewed the drawing or
approved the permit.
Mayor Reeves continued the public hearing that opened at the last meeting on June 12, 2017. No one
from the audience spoke, so Mayor Reeves closed the public hearing.
Motion: Motion to discuss WAIV17-0001, as read.
Moved by Hill, seconded by Harding
Discussion ensued about liability issues, history of nonconforming signs in right-of-way and previous
waiver requests approved, and examples of what requires a nonconformity to change and adhere to
current codes.
Planner Reeves stated that to the best of his knowledge there have not been previous waivers approved
for a nonconforming sign in the right-of-way.
Noted in continued discussion is that the sign in question currently exists in the City right-of-way and
issues resulting from that. The applicant began construction to remodel the sign without a permit, which
resulted in a Stop Work Order being issued. It is in the best interest of the City to enforce the ordinance
as written.
2
June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
Mayor Reeves inquired of Planner Reeves if other signs recently approved (listed below) have received
waivers and if any are in the right-of-way?
Planner Reeves responded as follows:
Circle K, approved for height only
Pawn shop on Mayport Rd.,replaced with monument sign
Atlantic Beach Theater, it is nonconforming and there is an active code case
Applicant Sean Monahan, 619 Atlantic Blvd., addressed the Commission. He reiterated his plea to keep
this sign where it has been for the past 40 years. Making the changes to this sign goes along with the
recent improvements completed on the building and parking area. Mr. Monahan stated the additional
expense to move the sign would be $21,000, and he would lose 2 parking spaces. The engineered plans
confirm it will be a sound structure and he is requesting the waiver be considered.
Mr. Monahan submitted a photo to the City Clerk for distribution to the Commission.
Mayor Reeves asked for a motion.
City Attorney Wayne Flowers clarified the original motion by Commissioner Hill was to open for
discussion only.
Commissioner Hill withdrew his motion
Moved by Hill, seconded by Harding
Motion withdrawn
Motion to deny WAIV17-0001, as read.
Moved by Waters, seconded by Harding
Commissioner Hill -not in favor to approve a waiver.
Commissioner Stinson- City consider sending surveyor for property when permit application in process.
Provide better communication with property owner from beginning.
Commissioner Waters — appreciate hardship for a small business owner in this situation. Unfortunate
that sign contractor did not apply for the required permit. Nonconformities need to be brought current
with code.
Commissioner Harding - sign renovation began without knowledge of permit requirements, not faulting
staff

June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
with a clear view of the street.
Mayor Reeves opened the public hearing. No one from the audience spoke, so Mayor Reeves closed the
public hearing.
Motion: Approve WAIV17-0002,as read
Moved by Hill, seconded by Harding
Discussion ensued about the location of the proposed 12 ft. circular driveway, the 2 additional
driveways on both sides of the house [for each garage], percentage of concrete in lot coverage, and
elimination of street parking.
The applicant, Keith Collier, 1639 Sea Oats Dr., Atlantic Beach, took the floor to address the
Commission. Mr. Collier clarified the existing structure and what was new construction added to the
structure.
A suggestion was made to revisit this ordinance due to the increase in the waiver requests for circular
driveways.

Aye: 4 Waters,Harding,Hill,Reeves
Nay: 1 Stinson
MOTION CARRIED 4 - 1
C. Short Term Rentals&Enforcement of Ordinance No. 90-10-212 and Section 24-82(1).
Commissioner Stinson explained the history of the City's ordinance that prohibits short-term rentals in
Atlantic Beach, effective since May 2006. There is proof of short-term rentals activity being advertised
on various web sites that promote this type of business. Perhaps our citizens are unaware of this
ordinance. Mr. Stinson believes his recommendations will inform the citizens and help maintain the
character of our community.
Motion: 1) Direct the City Manager to notify all property owners within the City of Atlantic
Beach, using Duval County Property Appraisers data of the prohibition of short-term rentals; 2)
Notify the Duval County Property Appraisers Office of all identified short-term rentals to ensure
homestead exemptions, if applicable, are properly applied; 3) Develop a written policy to
randomly search for and identify property owners who list their property for short-term rentals
and to cite those property owners not in compliance with the Ordinance and refer the violation to
the Code Enforcement Board. Present this policy to the City Commission; and 4) Include in the
monthly newsletter a description and commentary about the purpose of prohibiting such short-
term rentals.
Moved by Stinson, seconded by Hill
Discussion ensued about the enforcement of the existing ordinance. Currently the City's Code
Enforcement department responds to complaints received in order to investigate. Additionally it is a
violation of the Homestead Exemption and the Duval County Appraisers office is notified.
There is an increase in the number of web sites that promote various short-term rentals and research
shows several in Atlantic Beach. It was noted that there are communities that do allow this type of
rental activity and benefit from the revenue generated from these rentals. The downside is that short-
term rentals could have a negative impact to the character of the community, i.e. increase to traffic,
4
June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
crime, and nuisances.
City Attorney Flowers clarified that legislators have addressed vacation rentals. In 2011 a statute
provided that if there was an ordinance (vacation rentals) in existence prior to 2011 that ordinance could
be enforced. In 2014 there was another action by legislators that amended the statute wherein it
prohibited local governments from regulating the duration or frequency of vacation rentals, unless there
was an ordinance in place that predated the 2011 statute. The current Atlantic Beach Ordinance has
been in effect since 2006 and cannot be changed to make it more stringent than it is regarding duration
or frequency of rentals. City Attorney Flowers confirmed that enforcing the existing Ordinance is
permissible and Commissioner Stinson's recommendation is compliant with state law.
City Manager Hogencamp confirmed this ordinance is enforced when a report/complaint is received. It
does require extensive detective work to verify the actual address involved. Mr. Hogencamp stated the
City is prepared to carry out this request upon direction from the Commission.
A brief discussion ensued confirming enforcement of this Ordinance is necessary to preserve the
character of the community. The proposed recommendations will support enforcement and provide
information to property owners so they are aware of the consequences if they do not comply with the
Ordinance.

MOTION CARRIED
D. Formation of a Parking Advisory Resource Committee
(Commissioner Stinson)
Commissioner Stinson stated he is requesting to create a committee to study parking in the City of
Atlantic Beach. The residents continue to voice their concerns about ongoing parking issues and
problems. Continued growth in our City and surrounding communities creates demands on our
infrastructure, neighborhoods, public safety and beach access points.
Motion: Create a Committee consisting of 5 residents, supported by one Public Works senior staff
member, one Public Safety senior staff member, one member (past or present) of the Community
Development Board, one member of the current City Commission to review gathered data, to
conduct an onsite review of all beach access parking, and to make recommendations to the City
Manager and City Commission no later than the 1st of October 2017 and a sunset on the
Committee of the 31st of December 2017.
Moved by Stinson motion, seconded by Harding
Discussion ensued about having a professional traffic engineer study, issues with parking in right-of-
way, and parking hours. Suggestions were made to balance citizen representation or increase the
number of citizens on the committee, and to include Duval County representation on the committee.
Mayor Reeves stated that parking is an issue. He inquired if this committee will look at anything other
than beach access parking and asked how the sunset date was determined.
Commissioner Stinson explained that the majority of parking issues voiced are up and down the beach,
Town Center, and some areas of Atlantic Blvd. Any parking issues certainly need to be presented and
addressed. The December 31, 2017 sunset date was used to allow ample time for review and action
5
June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
prior to the next summer of 2018. Commissioner Stinson suggested this could be discussed at the July
Town Hall meeting.
A brief discussion ensued resulting in Commissioner Stinson amending his original motion.
AMENDED Motion: Create a Committee consisting of 10 residents, supported by one Public
Works senior staff member, one Public Safety senior staff member, one member (past or present)
of the Community Development Board, one member of the current City Commission to review
gathered data, to conduct an onsite review of all Atlantic Beach parking issues, and to make
recommendations to the City Manager and City Commission no later than the 1st of October 2017
and a sunset on the Committee of the 31St of December 2017.
Moved by Stinson, seconded by Waters
Commissioner Hill stated that the amended motion does not reflect previous discussions and thinks a
workshop is required before moving forward.
Commission Stinson repeated the amended motion into the record.

AMENDED MOTION CARRIED
Mayor Reeves called for a recess at 8:38 PM and reconvened the meeting at 8:46 PM.
E. Seminole Road Drainage Improvements, Streetscape and Water Main Replacement
Project.
Interim Pubic Utilities Director Kayle Moore and Interim Public Works Director Scott Williams
reported on the project history. Several options were presented to the Commission as listed in the memo
and displayed on the slideshow. Topics reviewed and discussed were the Seminole Road projects,
Stormwater Master Plan Update, bike path, and decorative street lighting.
A lengthy discussion ensued about the scope of the projects and expenses involved. The projects appear
bigger now than when originally planned for and several setbacks have impacted progress. The Master
Plan Update will identify problems throughout the City and prioritize those areas to find solutions.
Discussion continued about the project options, as noted in the memo, to achieve completion. There
have been many changes along the way and the projects are taking longer than anticipated, which is not
fair to residents, businesses, and the City as a whole.
There was discussion about the Orangeburg pipe replacement, water main replacement, street paving
schedules, and stormwater flooding. Prioritizing the projects with the budget resources is needed going
forward to better serve the citizens and our community. Replacement of the Orangeburg pipe could help
with resolving the local ponding and home flooding issues. At this time, because there is not a
significant amount of work going on disrupting the corridor and the streets, the water main replacement
could be deferred. This will allow for scheduling more site specific improvements to the Stormwater
piping, addressing the ponding areas and localized issues. Also noted was that a survey could be sent to
the Seminole Road residents to obtain their input for direction on drainage improvements and
streetscaping.
6
June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
Motion: Postpone the Seminole Road Project until the Stormwater Master Plan is updated, survey
the Seminole Road residents for items of importance in the project, increase Public Works
maintenance and Code Enforcement action on Seminole Road for beautification purposes until the
bigger project undertaken.
Moved by Waters, seconded by Harding
A brief discussion ensued resulting in an amended motion.
AMENDED Motion: Direct Public Works to scale back the project scope addressing only the
local existing stormwater puddling and Orangeburg pipe replacement; re-evaluate the project as a
whole to see if the current expectations and objectives are being met; survey the Seminole Road
residents for items of importance in the project; increase Public Works maintenance and Code
Enforcement action on Seminole Road for beautification purposes until the bigger project is
undertaken.

Director, the Jacksonville Planning Director, and a representative from the Jacksonville Mayor's office.
The purpose of this is to discuss the feasibility of establishing a CRA (in Atlantic Beach). An email

June 26, 2017 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING
C. Mayport Road Speed Limit
Interim City Manager Kevin Hogencamp reported on lowering the speed limit from 45 mph to 35 mph
on Mayport Rd. The Atlantic Beach community desires this, but Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) says it is not justified per their 85th percentile method. Their method does not include the
presence of pedestrians or bicyclists - only vehicle speed. This is a matter of public safety and we
advocate for the change to reduce the speed limit.
Consensus to direct the City Manager to proceed in the process to lower the Mayport Road speed
limit, as outlined in the Staff Report memo.
D. Royal Palm Area Sidewalk Update
Interim Public Works Director Williams reported on three streets in Royal Palms for sidewalk
construction, for Cutlass Drive, Sabalo Drive, and Triton Road. Ayres and Associates completed a field
evaluation and will prepare plans and specifications for the three sidewalks for bid, which will be
presented upon completion and submitted to the Commission.
This year's budget will cover one street only and Sabalo Drive will be the first completed in the project.
Additional funding will be requested in FY18 for the remaining sidewalk construction.
