J.P. Marchioli, 414 Sherry Drive, expressed the need for large
overhead street name signs on Mayport Road. He felt these signs
would be helpful since the speed limit had been increased. The
City Manager was directed to check into this with the Department of
Transportation.
Mr. Marchioli inquired into the status of plans to pave bike paths
throughout the city. The Mayor advised that bike paths would be
funded through gas tax revenues and these funds had been pledged
for Section H improvements and also other paving projects such as
Levy Road and Church Road. The Mayor said he hoped bike paths
would be a priority in the future.
Mr. Marchioli also complained of the uneven pavement on Sherry
Drive. Mr. Kosoy indicated he had developed a five-year paving
plan and Sherry Drive was not a priority at this time.
Robert Weiss, 253 Seminole Road, announced that an appeal to the
decision of the Governor and Cabinet regarding the relocation of
the Coastal Construction Control Line, had been filed in

Consent Agenda Item A - Fleet Landing Status Report
Public Works Director Bob Kosoy reported because of the high water
level and the possibility of the arrival of Hurricane Andrew the
Haskell Company had installed several pumps at the city's request.
He indicated these pumps had all now been shut down. He said
Haskell was doing a good job and construction would probably be
ongoing for a month or so, during which time the water level would
probably fluctuate.
Mayor Gulliford requested the City Manager secure a permit and see
if the creek could be cleaned while the water level is so low.
4. Resolutions:
A. Resolution No. 92-24
A RESOLUTION ASSESSING A FRANCHISE FEE OF FIVE PER CENTUM OF THE
GROSS RECEIPTS OF VISION ENERGY'S SALES OR DELIVERY OF GAS IN THE
CITY LIMITS OF ATLANTIC BEACH
Motion: Approve passage of Resolution No. 92-24
The City Manager explained this resolution proposed to assess a fee
on gas sales similar to that already in place for cable television,
electricity, etc. He said this would generate a small amount of
revenue for the city. Following further discussion it was agreed
the assessment should be referred to as a franchise fee, not a tax.

5. Ordinances:
A. Ordinance No. 90-92-158 - Public Hearing
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH AMENDING THE ZONING
CLASSIFICATION OF PROPERTY KNOWN AS LOT 8, BLOCK 9, SUBDIVISION "A"
FROM RS-2 TO RG-1; AMENDING THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP TO REFLECT THIS
CHANGE; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE
Mayor Gulliford presented in full, in writing, Ordinance No.
90-92-158, said ordinance having been posted in accordance with
Charter requirements. He opened the floor for a public hearing and
invited comments from the audience.
John Baillie, 1923 Beach Avenue, representing the property owners,
Jacqueline Wurn and Stephen Grad, spoke in favor of passage of the
ordinance. He reviewed documents including maps, sketches, and
photographs of surrounding properties. Mr. Baillie noted that the
subject property was surrounded by duplexes and apartment buildings
and he felt when the area was down zoned in the 70's from its
former use of duplex and single-family residences to RS-2, an undue
burden was placed on the subject property.
Ruth Gregg, 905 Sailfish Drive, reported she had received calls
opposing the proposed duplex.
Motion: Approve passage of Ordinance NO. 90-92-158 on final
reading
Commissioner Fletcher declared a conflict since he lived within 300
feet of the subject property. However, he advised that he had no
personal or pecuniary interest in the property.
Commissioner Waters felt the property owners purchased the property
with the knowledge of the existing zoning. He said he was
committed to maintaining single-family zoning throughout the city
as far as possible.
Commissioner Fletcher felt the city needed to be strict about
rezonings, particularly where it involved spot zoning. He felt
the owners of three other lots in the immediate area would be
adversely affected or could request similar rezonings in the
future.

AUGUST 24, 1992 NAME OF

Fletcher and Waters noting nay.

B. Discussion regarding appointing a committee to study and make
recommendations regarding possible revision of the City
Charter
Mayor Gulliford asked Commissioner Tucker for her recollections of
the events which led to the approval of the present City Charter.
Commissioner Tucker advised she was not employed by the city at that
time. She said she would like to see the references to the Florida
Statutes deleted and those passages set out in full in the Charter.
Canmissioner Fletcher agreed that the Charter in its present form
was confusing and not very instructive. Following discussions the
City Attorney was directed to check to see whether the present
Charter was legally adopted and make recommendations regarding how
to proceed. It was agreed to establish a committee of seven
members to review the Charter, such committee to be chaired by
Commissioner Tucker. Appointments to the committee will be made at
the next City Commission meeting.

7. City Manager reports and/or correspondence:
A. Report regarding Environmental Achievement award for recycling
Public Works Director Kosoy acknowledged the work of the Solid
Waste Committee and said the city would qualify for an
environmental achievement award. He had assembled a package of
supporting documents regarding the city's recycling program and
intended to apply for the Environmental Achievement Award for
Recycling.
B. Discussion regarding proposals for construction of sports
complex/concession stand for Jack Russell Park
Parks & Recreation Director Blanchard reported she had contacted
three architectural firms and had received proposals from Clements,
Rumpel, Goodwin, Inc. , and Actech Architects, Inc. She outlined
the proposals submitted and it appeared the best option would be to
remodel and add on to the existing structure. Discussion ensued
regarding the status of the YMCA trailer and Ms. Blanchard
explained the architectural firms had indicated the trailer could
be anchored to a proper foundation and covered with cedar shingles
to make it architecturally compatible with the other buildings in
the complex. It was suggested that if the YMCA wished to retain
the trailer at that location, the city could require that they
cover it with cedar shingles.

COMMRS. MSYN
The Mayor suggested an architect could be selected with the
provision that a not-to-exceed figure or a percentage of the
construction cost be agreed upon. He also suggested the architect
should meet with the citizens to determine the needs and provide a
suggested plan to the City Manager who could make recommendations
to the City Commission accordingly. The City Manager said an
in-house needs assessment had already been completed.
Notion: Start the process to retain an architect to do the Edwards x
appropriate study of the needs of this park and all Fletcher x x
the users of it and public facilities for the Tucker x x
ultimate construction and remodeling of the existing Waters x
facility, and request the City Manager to come back Culliford x
with recommendations
No further discussion. The motion carried unanimously.
The City Manager reported he and the Finance Director had met with
the city's auditors, Purvis Gray and Company regarding the city's
capital needs. A budget workshop was scheduled for 6:30 PM on
Monday, August 31, 1992.
Mr. Wendland reported the Water and Sewer Committee had developed a
water and sewer capital improvements schedule and they had
requested Purvis Gray to assist the city regarding restructuring
the city's current debt with the possibility of combining the three
water and sewer funds into one fund. He said Purvis Gray had
submitted a proposal for these services at a cost not to exceed
$7,000.00.
Nation: Ester into contract with Purvis Gray Company in an
amount not to exceed $7,000.00 to assist the city in Edwards x
matters related to financing of water and sewer Tucker x
capital improvements
In further discussion, the Mayor felt Purvis Gray was in an
excellent position to assist the city in this matter since they had
performed the city audits for the past several years. Commissioner
Fletcher said he had no objection to hiring Purvis Gray for this
work but he felt the scope of the work needed to be better defined.
Substitute Notion: Defer action on the request until the Edwards x
Water and Sewer Committee can define the scope of Fletcher x x
work and schedule a special meeting for Monday, Tucker x
August 31, 1992 to act on the recommendations of the Waters x x
Water and Sewer Committee Gulliford x
Following further discussion, the question was called on the
substitute motion and carried unanimously.

illiam McGee, Selva Marina Drive, requested that Purvis Gray be
asked for an opinion regarding the propriety of diverting funds
($887,000.) from Water and Sewage into other accounts.
Commissioner Edwards provided each Commissioner with a pamphlet
from the Taxation and Budget Reform Commission. He solicited
support for the Constitutional Revisions outlined in the pamphlet.
Commissioner Fletcher announced the zoning review committee would
resume their weekly meetings on Wednesday, August 26, 1992.
Commissioner Waters referred to a letter from Mr. & Mrs. Boll and
confirmed that the Code Enforcement Officer and Public Works
Director had received a copy. He asked that the various complaints
be investigated.
Commissioner Waters also referred to a letter from Councilman Dick
Brown regarding the refund of Barge Canal funds. The City Manager
was directed to write letters to the at-large councilmen as
requested by Councilman Brown.
Commissioner Waters also commented on the sand which had
accumulated on Beach Avenue and Mr. Kosoy said the city swept this
area from time to time.
Commissioner Waters also inquired into the work which has been
going on at 16th Street and the City Attorney indicated he was
aware of the problem and he was awaiting information from Public
Works.
Cb missioner Tucker, who had just returned from vacation, provided
each Commissioner with information regarding the State of
California budget problems.

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: CITY MANAGERS REPORT
SUBMITTED BY: ROSE H. BLANCHARD, PARKS & REC. DIR.
DATE: AUG. 21, 1992
BACKGROUND: per Instructions from the City Commission, I have solicited
the enclosed proposals for the construction of a new Sports Complex/Concession
stand for Jack Russell Park, to match the existing buildings in the Park.
The City Manager and Finance Director and myself have viewed these plans
and feel that the proposals from CRG ARCHITECTS/PLANNERS, INC. AND FROM ACTECH
are more on target for what we asked for.
The proposal from ALBERT H. HALFF is for preliminary work and actually,
no proposal for construction would be forthcoming until they did the preliminary
study. This would cost us over $7,000 more. . .before we begin.
We request direction from the City Commission on how you wish us to proceed
in this matter.
Time is of the essence in that the monies have been budgeted in the current
budget (1991-92) . We have been delayed due to the schedule of Little League Games
up to the beginning of July. They plan to begin play for the FALL BALL SEASON in
October.
RECOMMENDATION: It is the Recommendation of the City Manager, Finance Director
and the Parks & Recreation Director that we consider the proposals submitted by
CRG ARCHITECTS/PLANNERS, INC AND ACTECH:

RE; PARK IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Rose :
I enjoyed meeting with you this last week and discussing the
possibilities for the little league concession stand. After our
meeting, Roxanne and I met with your maintenance personnel and
visited the site .
Our initial understanding of the proposed program is as follows:
1 . Concession stand - run by the little league , this
facility needs to a more efficient layout allowing walkup
access from both adjacent fields . The existing space
appears to be adequate in square footage, however the
current layout is inefficient leaving the space feeling
crowded with much wasted circulation space.
2 . Baseball Equipment Storage - used by the little league
this activity is currently housed in a container building
adjacent to the concession stand. This space needs to
be incorporated into the concession stand building.
3 . Park maintenance -. home for your park personnel , this
small area currently occupying about 250 square feet is
much too small for what they do and the equipment they
store . Flammable storage is an area that needs to be
addressed. Our feeling was that this park function need
not necessarily be located in the concession stand
building and probably if remodeled in conjunction with
the concession area , would be adequate to house the ,
baseball storage requirement currently in the container
building. The park maintenance department could be
located elsewhere in the park. An idea for its new
location is discussed later .

PAGE 2
4 . Toilets - a toilet needs to be incorporated into the
concession stand. Evidently the public toilets located
separately "on the hill " provides needed requirements for
the park itself , so the toilet in the concession area
could be for internal use not public . As I 'm sure you
know the public toilets don ' t meet the latest ADA
requirements for handicapped access . This could be
handled as a separate project or rolled into this one ,
depending on available monies .
5 . Press boxes - needed on top of the concession area to
provide visual access to both fields .
6 . Office space - possibly on second level with press boxes.
This presents problems of access by handicapped and code
considerations for egress . This added space may be a
problem with our limited budget.
7 . YMCA Programs Buildings - ownership of these double wides
needs to be clarified. Additional research and
discussions need to occur with users and the City to
develop space requirements and possibilities . Certainly
to cover the existing buildings with Cedar siding and
develop decks and overhangs around this building would
go a long way to make its appearance more compatible with
the City Hall and other buildings in the area . Also,
placement of the building should be looked at for optimum
functional and visual appearance . I include some
drawings we have developed recently for FCCJ showing what
can be done to take a portable classroom type building
and cover it with cedar siding and incorporate covered
decks around its perimeter .
We would like to make the following recommendations for this
project :
1 . Remodel the existing concession stand building to include
concession area, baseball sports equipment storage and
new toilet. Add a new trussed roof to the building to
incorporate a loft-type space for the 2 press boxes on
a mezzanine level . Cover the existing block building
with cedar to match other building and use roof slopes
to relate to the City Hall . Some demolition would be ,
required , and perhaps an addition onto the building would
be required. The limited budget would probably eliminate
the possibility of demolition of the existing building
and replacing it with a new structure . This should be
looked at more carefully to be sure .
PAGE 3
2 . The park ' s maintenance department could be relocated to
the sides and back of the existing racquetball courts .
This would help cover the large expanse of exposed block
walls of the courts on the parking lot side and save on
construction costs by utilizing the existing walls that
are there. I include a little sketch of its placement.
New roof trusses to match the slope of the City Hall
could be utilized and new walls with cedar siding would
go a long way to tie together the park area and hide the
large unsightly blank racquetball walls .
These two recommendations could be done for your budget of
$50 , 000 . 00 . A preliminary breakout would be :
New park maintenance building-300 SF @ $40/SF = $12 , 000
Remodel existing concession building
950 SF @ $40/SF= 38 , 000
Total (without contingency) $50 ,000
These numbers of course are rough and designs and final plans would
affect these numbers , but I feel sure it ' s possible to meet the
$50 ,000 number .
We would anticipate a fee of $5 , 000 . 00 for the necessary design
work and contract documents . This number is higher percentagewise
than we normally charge and is due to the smaller size of the
project. The work- effort for a smaller project is usually almost
as extensive as the work effort for a larger project.
We would be delighted to meet and discuss this project in greater
detail and would be honored to be selected to help contribute to
the development of the park.
Please call with questions .

RE: Proposal for Architectural and Engineering Services
Baseball Structure at Russell Park
Dear Rose:
Thank you for giving ACTECH the opportunity to render
architectural/engineering services to the City of Atlantic Beach
Recreational Department.
Sedley Huey and I visited the site and measured the existing conditions.
It is our professional opinion that in order to accomplish the necessary
additions under $50,000.00, the following items should be considered:
1. Keep the existing masonry structure.
2. Add new toilets between the existing masonry structure and
the south playing field.
3. Add stairs in the existing structure to go upstairs.
4. The second story could fit on top of the first story masonry
walls. The size of the upstairs will be +/- 35'-8"x27'-0".
This size should be ample to have two sky boxes and a
meeting room.
5. The existing storage rooms and the snack stand could remain
in their present locations. The spaces could be remodeled.
Rose Blanchard, City of Atlantic Beach
July 15, 1992
Page Two
The fee for professional services is 6.5% of the construction budget
($50,0000) which is $3,250.00. The balance will be enough to remodel
the structure. Every effort will be taken to make the remodeled
structure compatible with the City Hall and Fire Station.
Please advise us if the additional resumes are required. The City has
copies of our resumes and qualifications on file.
Sincerely,
