Minutes 12/12/66 Page #2
Resolution #66-17 was presented and read in full by Mayor Howell.
Said resolution provides for transfers in 1966 Budget, and makes
possible the final payments on the new garbage truck body and
chassis, saving approximately $100. 00 in interest by making this
advance payment. Mr. Parks moved adoption, seconded by Mr.
Weldon and carried. Copy of Resolution #66-17 is attached hereto
and made a part hereof.
Mr. Goodling moved that the City Treasurer be authorized to pay
the balances due on the garbage truck chassis and body as
recommended by her, seconded by Mr. Parks and carried.
An Ordinance amending Personnel Ordinance #50-61-1 was presented
in full in writing for consideration on first reading. Mr. Parks
moved said Ordinance be passed on first reading by title only,
seconded by Mr. Weldon and carried. Public Hearing was set for
December 26, 1966 at 8: 00 P. M.
Ordinance #20-66-12 adopting the 1967 Budget was presented in full
in writing. Mr. Weldon moved adoption by Title only on first
reading, seconded by Mr. Parks. Mr. Weldon stated the Ordinance
contains a 4% across the board increase for City employees and
would like for records to show that the Department of Labor
statistics indicate that average annual increase for employees
for first 9 months in 1966 was 3.8% - this is well within average
of all employees within United States. Mayor Howell then put the
question and the motion carried. The Public Hearing was set for
December 26, 1966 at 8: 00 P. M.
A request was presented from Mr. Hilliard for approval of purchase
of pipe, couplings, etc. for new connections in amount of approxi-
mately $325.00 from Account #1501. Mr. Goodling moved approval,
seconded by Mr. Parks and carried.
Mr. Bennett read his report, and advised that Dick Hilliard has
gone to Rochester, New York, due to serious illness of his Father.
Copy of the City Managers report is attached to these minutes and
made a part hereof.
Mr. Goodling noted that the park around the City Hall is the
"Richard Bull Memorial Park".
Mr. Goodling noted that the City has paid the Heilig Contracting
Company $467 .50 for well pointing and rental of well points in
connection with the repair job in sewer line at corner of Royal
Palms Drive and Cavalla Road. We had understood this cost was to
be borne by contractor, but the City ended up paying for same.

Minutes 12/12/66 Page #3
Mr. Weldon inquired as to status of building plans of the hot
dog outfit at corner of Sailfish Drive, East, and Atlantic
Boulevard. They are completing agreements with Interstate and
then will get building permit and beer license.
Mr. Weldon inquired as to location of sprinkler system. It is
at triangular spot at corner of Atlantic Boulevard and Seminole
Road. We already have a sprinkler system in Richard Bull
Memorial Park.
Mr. Parks commented on work done at above-mentioned triangular
spot and thinks City Manager and others involved should be
complimented for the improvement.
There was a discussion of Expressway plans and their straighten-
ing out this above intersection into one street. Mr. Goodling
advised that the next meeting of the Authority is scheduled for
last week in December but no definite time or date set.
There was a discussion of the fluctuation in the lights. There
is some difficulty with arcing and salt spray on insulators and
the damp air causes some of trouble. Understand City of
Jacksonville Electric Department is working on problem.
Mr. Bennett advised he is going to talk to the Expressway people
about by-passing Mayport Road during construction and routing
traffic down Main Street to Levy Road - might be able to get paved
in that area. It is thought they plan to do one side of Mayport
Road at a time and not re-route traffic.
Mrs. Grage advised the Landfill contract for 1967 has been
approved, without deletion, by the East Duval County Mosquito
Control and returned for our files. It is understood that before
the 1968 contract is presented that the Attorney for the East
Duval County Mosquito Control District will get with our City
Attorney and agree on mutually satisfactory substitute for the
clause in question.
The Police Department report for November, 1966 and the Municipal
Court docket for December 5, 1966 were presented for information
and filing.
Mr. Parks would like for the Commission to request the City
Attorney, and if necessary appoint a Committee to work with the
Attorney, in an endeavor to draft an Ordinance for the considera-
tion of the Commission pertaining to circumstances like we have
had on Atlantic Boulevard west of Mayport Road - to be exact at
"Screwy Louie 's ". Our Police Department made an effort which
was tossed out of Court on a technicality or some other reason.
It is his understanding that a Municipality can in such cases
' Minutes 12/12/66 Page #4
adopt Ordinances having more stringent requirements than
State laws. This is time we need legal advice as is bad
publicity for atlantic Beach. Mr. Thompson agreed entirely
and likes idea of appointing Committee - would be happy to
work with Committee and report back to Commission. Mr. Parks
moved that Committee be appointed to work with the City Attorney
to draft Ordinance, seconded by Mr. Holloway and carried. Mr.
Howell appointed Mr. Parks and Mr. Weldon to work with Mr.
Thompson as a Committee, and to try and have report by next
meeting.
There being no further business, Mayor Howell declared the
meeting adjourned.
