Correspondence
A. From John Leslie re Status of South i of LOT 6,BLK 219, and South i
of LOT 6, BLK 220, Section H
Mr. John Leslie owns LOT 1, BLK 206, Section H, which borders on Begonia,
Tulip, and a 25' right-of-way (South 1 of LOT 6, BLK 219, and South i
of LOT 6, BLK 220) that is owned by the City. Mr. Leslie requested
clarification of the status of the right-of-way,as it is presently being
used as a dirt road for ingress and egress to Tulip St. from Begonia,
and he would like to construct his home facing that dirt road. A general
discussion followed. The consensus of the Commission was that they would
not guarantee the City would maintain the right-of-way as a street. Mr.
Leslie commented that he would be interested in buying the 25' parcel
owned by the city if it ever comes up for sale.

A. Request for Change in Zoning Classification
A lengthy debate was held on the request by Mr. Louis MacDonnell/Mr.
Bert Revells, Cardinal Industries that the zoning classification be
changed from CG (Commercial General) to RG3 (Multi-Family) in Sec. H.
The proposed development would be 64 one story, one bedroom rental
apartments located on four acres. Commissioner Gulliford opposed
the change of zoning as it could set a bad precedent, and he made
the following motion:
Motion: Deny the recommendation of the Advisory Planning Board Cook X
for approval, and reject the rezoning necessary for the Gulliford x x
project. Morris X
Van Ness x x
The vote was three to two in favor of the motion, but it takes a Persons x
4/5 vote to override the recommendation of the Advisory Planning
Board. The Ordinance for rezoning will be presented at the next
meeting to be read on first reading.

C. Site Plan Review of Atlantic Village Shopping Center
The City Manager introduced Mr. Asa Candler, Developer of the Atlantic
Village Shopping Center, and his contractor, Mr. Bill Dyer. Commis-
sioner Morris was asked to report on the Advisory Planning Board's
recommendations for the project, and he said they had some concern
on the ingress and egress of the traffic that will have to do with
the shopping center, and also the problem of the outfall from the
shopping center and the drainage of the storm water. Mr. Dyer advised
the Commission that he had talked with the Department of Transportation
on this date and it is the DOT's intent to issue their permit for
access to the shopping center off of Atlantic Blvd.through the center
of the shopping center. They are going to improve the medians and
require a left hand turn lane there. Discussion was held on the
access through Royal Palms as there was concern that the curve on
Royal Palms might not be wide enough to accommodate the traffic.

Advisory Planning Board - continued- Atlantic Village Shopping Center
Discussion was held on the water retention problems caused by the
impact of the parking lot. The contractor stated that their plans
meet the retention requirements of Chapter 1725 of the Florida
Administrative Code. They only have to meet the minimum require-
ments as the City of Atlantic Beach does not have a storm water
Ordinance. For the record, Commissioner Morris suggested that the
City consider adopting a storm water Ordinance in the near future.
After discussion and reviewing the site plan, the City Manager stated
the contractor is ready to go and hopes to start within two weeks
after the permit is issued from the City.
City Manager's Report
A. Item #1-Provision of Utility Services Outside Corporate Limits
The City Manager reported that one of the recommendations made by
the Sewer Plant Committee during their meeting of April 14, 1983
concerning the expansion of the utilities beyond the corporate limits
was there be no decision other than making expansion on a case-by-
case consideration of design of the system. The City Manager recom-
mended that the City Commission adopt a policy concerning the continu-d
expansion of water and sewer utilities beyond the corporate limits.

City Manager's Report- continued
Mr. Moss presented a written report on the 37th Annual Conference
of the Florida City and County Management Association that he attend-
ed. He thanked the Commission for the opportunity to go to that very
worthwhile meeting.
The City Manager reported that construction on the new public works
building was going well. Beach Avenue resurfacing is completed with-
out too many complaints. There are a couple of problems on storm
water drainage on properties that were built below street grade and
he is trying to address that.
Mr. Moss acknowledged receipt of a report from Robert Bates, Consult-
ing Engineers, regarding the impact of the Buccaneer's water plant
for which they have made application. The summary of the report
suggests that the wells will not have a substantial impact on the
City of Atlantic Beach.
Specifications have been prepared as requested by the City Commission
for the group health insurance, and have advertised for bids. At
present, nine companies are reviewing the specifications. Bid Open-
ing is scheduled for May 24, 1983.
Bid opening for a Financial Consultant is scheduled for May 2,1983,
and hopefully will bring forth recommendations at the meeting of
May 9, 1983.
Items being considered by the Florida State Legislature that the
City Manager brought to the attention of the Commission:
A move to require the licensing of building officials- certification
by the State. Mr. Moss recommended that the City oppose state mandated
requirements for our employees. The Cities should share some of the
liability in the inspection of the buildings. The bill also requires
that all building fees go into the building inspection department.
Mr. Moss asked for direction from the Commission as to whether or
not the City Manager should express the city's feelings by letter
toward the various legislations regarding the building inspection
bills.
Motion: Instruct the City Manager to express the city's feelings Cook x x
to the Legislators toward the various legislations regard- Gulliford x
ing the building inspection bills. Morris x x
Van Ness x
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Persons x
Mr. Moss suggested support of a bill the Fla. League of Cities is
attempting to institute that will allow the cities to continue to
receive refunds from the State from the 5% sales tax.
There is some movement that the State preempt the municipalities in
comprehensive planning and zoning and should be watched.

City Manager's Report - continued - Proposed bills :
Uniform Municipal Election Dates - All municipalities will have their
elections on the same day. This overrides our Charter. It also mandates
that county supervisors of elections conduct all municipal elections
and be reimbursed by the cities for the expense of the elections.
The Commission opposed the adoption of this legislation.
The City Commission was provided a copy of a memorandum from Carl
Stucki, Chief of Public Safety,regarding litter on the Beach.
New Business
A. Request by Mr. & Mrs. Hugh Miley to Sell Beer and Wine for Package
Goods Qnly - 85 Sailfish Drive
Discussion was held on Mr. & Mrs. Miley's request to sell beer and
wine for package goods only in their new meat market at 85 Sailfish
Drive. It was the consensus of the Commission that this would be
classified as a grocery store and come under the exception of Section
3-6(c) of Chapter 3 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Atlantic
Beach.
