Recognition of Visitors
The chair recognized Mrs. Gregg, 905 Sailfish Drive, who inquired as
to when the traffic light at Mayport and Plaza would be installed.
The Mayor explained that he and Mr. Davis had attended a meeting with
the the Department of Transportation on Friday, April 7, and were told
that the contract had been let by the State of Florida.
Mayor Howell recognized Mr. George Bull, Sr. , who apologized for not
requesting that he be listed on the agenda, but expressed the opinion
that it was vital to Sevilla for proper advertisement, and requested
permission from the Commission to install a directional sign at the
intersection of Saturiba Drive and Seminole Road on Jacksonville's and
the City of Atlantic Beach 's right-of-way, perhaps by granting a
variance, if necessary. Mr. Bull also requested that the Commission
consider a proposal to refer an over-all plan of Selva Marina Unit 12,
and other units on utility systems, to the City Engineer and other
regulatory agencies. Commissioner Mhoon expressed the view that Mr.
Bull should contact Mr. Bill Davis, the Acting City Manager, to resolve
the matter of the directional sign. Mayor Howell noted that Mr. Bull 's
request for referral of the over-all plan of new units in Selva Marina
was in order and suggested that with no objections from the Commission,
the utility plans for Selva Marina Unit 12 and other units be referred
to the City Engineer for consideration, and that Mr. Parks report back
at the next meeting. Commission agreed.
