MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION HELD AT THE CITY HALL ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1963, AT 8:00 P. M. Present: Henry G. Isaacs J. B. Claiborne Preben Johansen C. B. Lawrence, Jr. Chas . R. Moore, Commissioners and Frank Thompson, City Attorney John R. Printon, City Manager Adele S. Grage, City Clerk Absent: None The meeting was called to order by the Mayor-Commissioner, Mr. Isaacs. Minutes of the meeting of January 28, 1963 , were approved as written upon motion of Nr . Johansen, seconded by Mr. Claiborne and carried. Mr. Isaacs recognized visitors present and called for any business from the floor not on the agenda. Mr. D. R. Walton, who, with his wife, has petitioned for a certificate of convenience and necessity for the Sandra Cab Company, presented to the Commission his reasons and qualifications for operating such a service in Atlantic Beach, stating that with their type of vehicle they could operate more economically and give lower rates. Mr . Isaacs called on Mr. Lawrence for a report of his investigation of this request for certificate. Mr. Lawrence reported that he had talked with Mrs . Walton and to the other cab com- panies. He feels that it is a privilege permit and believes in order to have such a permit the company should be on full--time operation and have more than one unit. He ad- vised that their insurance is adequate but that due to the facts involved, he would recommend that the permit be denied at this time. Mr. Printon advised that he tends to agree with lir. Lawrence on this recommendation. It was agreed that we are not against free enterprise but feel that we should not allow another cab certificate of conveni- ence at this time, as with only one vehicle it would not be possible for them to keep equipment on the streets at all times . The matter was further discussed, following which Mr. Claiborne moved that the recommendation as made by Mr. Lawrence be accepted and that the request for certi- ficate of convenience and necessity be turned down, seccn(1.e0. L Minutes 2/11/63 Page 2 by Mr. Johansen and carried. Mr. Isaacs suggested that at a later date when the Wa].tons have more cabs and could give more competitive service that they come back to the Commis- sion and he felt sure that it would be reconsidered. Bids were next opened for the two trucks and flat bed from: Lynch-Davidson Company - Bid on Items 1, 2 & 3 Tom Nehl G.M.C . Truck Co. - Bid on Items 1, 2 & 3 Rivers Trailer & Equipment Co.-Bid on Item 3 only The necessary bid bond checks were attached to each bid. Mr. Claiborne moved that bids be received for tabulation and turned over to the Finance Committee for study with power to act, seconded by Mr. Johansen and carried. Mr. Isaacs next read in full Ordinance 90-63-15 covering amendment to zoning ordinance as regards a portion of Business AA district; certified proof of publication covering hearing on this Ordinance is attached to these minutes and made a part thereof. The Mayor then declared the meeting in session for said Public Hearing and called for any discussion from the floor. As no one appeared either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed, whereupon Mr. Claiborne moved that Ordinance 90-63-15 be passed on second and final reading, seconded by Mr. Moore and Roll Call was as follows: Aye - Claiborne, Johansen, Lawrence, Moore, Isaacs Nay - None Whereupon the Mayor declared said Ordinance passed on second and final reading. Mr. Isaacs next read Ordinance 55-63-7 in full, notice of Public Hearing on said Ordinance having been posted in line with Charter requirements . Mr. Isaacs declared the meeting in session for Public Hearing on this Ordinance covering amendment to Garbage Fee Ordinance. Mrs. Cecil Montague re- quested information as to the every other day collection of the garbage and advised that she felt we had the best garbage service of any place she had ever lived at the least cost and would prefer staying on a daily collection basis with additional charge for the service. It was advised that the garbage would be collected every other day, including Sundays, and that if we found this would not work, we could always return to the present daily collection, that this every other day service will only be for nine months in the year, with every day collection during June, July and August at the ad- vanced fee. After some further discussion, the Public Hearing was declared closed, whereupon Mr. Claiborne moved that Ordinance 55-63-7 amending the Garbage Ordinance be passed on Minutes 2/11/63 Page 3 second and final reading, seconded by Mr. Johansen and the Roll Call was: Aye - Johansen, Lawrence, Moore, Claiborne, Isaacs Nay - None Whereupon Mr. Isaacs declared the motion carried and Ordinance 55-63-7 adopted on second and final reading. The effective date to be immediately upon its passage. Resolution 63-6 covering a request for condemnation for the property at the intersection of Seminole Road and Atlantic Boulevard was read in full. This Resolution requests the State Road Department to take steps in having this property condemned, as it is a traffic hazard and parts of the station are on the State right-of-way. Mr. Lawrence advised that the Traffic and Highway Committee some months ago had drawn up steps to be taken to help traffic situations in Atlantic Beach and this is one of them. There was further discussion on this situation, following which Mr. Lawrence moved that Resolution 63-6 be adopted, motion was seconded by Mr . Claiborne and carried. Copy of Resolution 63-6 is attached to these minutes and made a part thereof. Resolution 63-7 covering transfer of funds for the new heating and air conditioning system in the City Hall was next read in full. The 1962 Budget covered this work, but it was not done until 1963. The 1963 Budget did not include this item and it is necessary to make provisions to cover same. The matter was discussed, following which Mr. Claiborne moved the adoption of Resolution 63-7 , seconded by Mr. Johansen and carried. Copy of Resolution 63-7 is attached to these minutes and made a part thereof. Contract with the City of Neptune Beach for radio service was next presented and authorization requested for the Mayor and City Clerk to sign same for the City. This contract is for $3 , 000.00 per year for three years to be paid in monthly installments of $250. 00 per month. Mr. Johansen moved that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to sign this contract for the City, seconded by Mr. Claiborne and carried. Miscellaneous correspondence as outlined on the agenda was presented and read to the Commission. Mr. Lawrence, Chairman of the Seawall Committee, advised that they would like permission from the City to talk to engineers and, if necessary, engage an engineer for services they might need. It was agreed that they have the authority to consult with engineers and come back with recommendations on same. Minutes 2/11/63 Page 4 Report of Fire Chief Howell for the month of January, 1963, was received and filed. A comprehensive report from Police Chief McClung was received and studied by the Commissioners and filed. Mr. Printon presented a request for building permit covering a restaurant to be built on Robert Street, just off Mayport Road, and advised that this location is in the proper zoning for a restaurant and meets the Building Code. They are ask- ing for a small dance area in connection with their restaur- ant. The matter was discussed, following which Mr. Lawrence moved that the permit be granted, seconded by Mr. Moore and carried. Mr. Lawrence requested that a representative be appointed to serve on a temporary committee with similar members from the other Beaches to coordinate seawall plans. It was brought out that representatives of the other Beaches met here at the City Hall earlier this afternoon to discuss our overall seawall problem. Mr. Johansen suggested that Mr. Lawrence was the proper person to serve as he is already working on this problem. Mr. Isaacs concurred with this opinion and appointed Mr. Lawrence, with Mr. Printon to serve as alternate. Mr. Printon presented a request for building permits for an A & P Store at Atlantic Boulevard and the extension of Sail- fish Drive and a Post Office building on Penman Road, extended. He recommended that the permits be granted subject to their complying with the Southern Building Code and our Ordinances. There are parts of the plans that will have to be revised by their architect. Following discussion, Mr. Johansen moved that these permits be granted subject to the conditions stated by the City Manager, seconded by Mr. Claiborne and carried. There being no further business, Mr. Isaacs declared the meeting adjourned. Henry ZI" saacs, Mayor-Commissioner Attest: aci2-e.,&- . ticiele S.
