Mayor Howell recognized visitors present and called for any business from the floor not on the Agenda. Mr. Henry Isaacs wanted the records to show that he did not want the job as City Managar, as rumors would have it, and that he was not qualified under the Charter for City Manager. Mr. Robert Rosborough asked if it was necessary to file a Campaign expense account. Mr. Howell said that the City of Atlantic Beach does not come under the general law and this would not be necessary. At Mr. Weldon's suggestion, Mr. Howell introduced the two newly elected Commissioners, Mr. Robert Rosborough and Mr. Arthur Longo. Minutes 10/9/67 Page #2 Mr. Howell read in full Ordinance No. 35-67-2 on second and final reading. After which, Mayor Howell opened the Public Hearing. There being no one present who wished to speak for or against the Ordinance, Mayor Howell declared the Public Hearing closed. Mr. Weldon suggested slight modification in description of property served and the monies collected shall be from customers served in this area only. After much discussion, it was agreed that with the insertion of "to customers served by Sewage Pumping Station D" it would clarify this section of the Ordinance. Mr. Howell questioned wording in Section 4 of Ordinance "City 's Engineer ", and suggested this be changed to "Owner 's Engineer ". Mr. Bull agreed that wording be changed. Question was brought up as to a decrease or increase in sewage charges, what effect this would have on Certificate. According to our contract, the City could not decrease but could increase. Mr. Ball stated the increase would not affect the amount now paid per customer on this Certificate, the amount would remain the same. Mr. Weldon moved the approval of Ordinance as amended, seconded by Mr. Holloway. Mr. Howell put the question and the roll call was as follows: Aye: Goodling, Holloway, Weldon, Howell Pass: Parks Mr. Howell declared the motion carried. Mr. Bull asked for approval of plans. Also, note that plans call for 8" main which is adequate for area to be developed. If City plans to extend sewer line East of Seminole Road in foreseeable future it would be expedient to pay additional cost for larger trunk line. Mr. Parks advised that when bids are received that it would reflect the additional charge for larger line and at that time the City could decide as to whether or not they want to obligate for additional cost of line. Mr. Howell asked if Commission approves will plans still have to be approved by Board of Health. Mr. Parks stated the City is basically indicating its consent for these proposed facilities to become part of water and sewer system. Mr. Weldon moved that plans be approved, seconded by Mr. Goodling. Mr. Goodling amended motion to read subject to obtaining approval of State Board of Health and other applicable regula- tory bodies. Mr. Howell then put the question as amended and the motion carried. • Minutes 10/9/67 Page #3 Mr. Howell requested the City Attorney prepare for passage on first reading at next meeting Ordinance zoning areas discussed to Residence AA. This is to include Units 5 and 6. Mr. Holloway moved the approval of plat with understanding that entire area as described will be zoned Residence AA, seconded by Mr. Weldon and carried. The Public Works Department report was presented for informa- tion and filing. The Acting City Attorney presented a written report on Landfill Contract with East Duval County Mosquito Control. The clause in question was found unconstitutional. Mr. Weldon suggested we sign contract and return with letter to that effect. It was decided to attach City Attorneys report to signed contract. Mr. Parks moved approval, seconded by Mr. Weldon and carried. Call for Bids for insurance coverage for 1968 was requested for presentation at next meeting. Mr. Howell suggested taking an alternate bid as to deductible clause on windstorm. Might save enough to be worthwhile. Mr. Howell read Resolution No.67-i1 - General Fund transfers.

Pay raises for October, 1967 were presented in writing. Fire and Police reports for September, 1967 were received for information and filing.
