Standard Oil Company (Ky. ) Minutes 12/9/68 Page #2 Mr. Rosborough moved bids be referred to Committee for tabula- tion and report back at next meeting, seconded by Mr. Longo and carried. Commissioners Weldon and Holloway and City Manager Vogel were named as Committee. A note was presented from Glover Weiss regarding increase in his 1968 taxes. A request was read from Mrs. Jane Jelovchan asking that a prac- tice board be erected at one of the City' s tennis courts. It was discussed and advised can be done with little cost and Mr. Vogel was asked to take care of the request. A letter was presented from Mrs . Lucille Donnell requesting permission to increase the seating capacity at the Mexiteria Restaurant to 56 - the additional seats to be for a banquet room to be known as the "Fiesta Room" . They also plan to have coin operated music machine, pool and bowling games for the bene- fit of their guests. Mr. Vogel advised it appeared it was going to be a Penny Arcade type operation and he had therefore referred it to Commission. Mr. Donnell advised the machines were for use of his guests in the Restaurant. Mr. Vogel was advised as long as meets City ordinances, there is no action needed by Commission. An Ordinance #20-68-18 adopting the Budget for 1969 was presented in full in writing for passage on first reading by title only. Mr. Longo moved that Ordinance #20-68-18 adopting the budget for 1969 be passed on first reading by title only, seconded by Mr. Rosborough. Mr. Weldon stated the salaries represent 53% of the budget and the salaries given are way above the recently passed Salary Schedule Ordinance and virtually "wipe out" said Ordi- nance; and that the several department heads are scheduled for substantial raises. Also he stated he was astounded at amount received from Utility tax as it was originally to raise amount due on utility bond and not to increase general revenues. He proposed it be cut from 8% to 6%. Mr. Longo advised the raises to personnel in the budget with two exceptions were within the framework of the new salary Ordinance schedule and does not feel exhorbitantly high and that one of these exceptions was the water and sewer plant operator who is being required by state to secure operator ' s license to retain his job. Mr. Rosborough feels Salary Ordinance was for purpose of guide lines. Mr. Holloway feels so much raise is excessive of what intended. There was a lengthy discussion during which it was brought out our Policemen and Firemen are still under the scales used for Jacksonville Beach and Neptune Beach. Following further discussion Mr. Weldon made a substitute motion that an ordinance amending ordinance on utility tax be prepared by next meeting to reduce the utility tax from 8% to 6%, seconded by Mr. Rosborough and the vote was: Aye: Mr. Holloway, Mr. Rosborough, Mr. Weldon Nay: Mr. Longo, Mr. Howell The Mayor declared the motion carried. Minutes 12/9/68 Page #3 After further discussion Mayor Howell presented a substitute motion to add a Section III to Ordinance #20-68-18 as follows: "All Ordinances or parts of Ordinances in conflict herewith are hereby repealed" , seconded by Mr. Rosborough and carried. The Public Hearing on said Ordinance was set for 8:00 P. M. , December 23, 1968. An Ordinance was presented in full in writing granting a 5 year franchise to the Jacksonville Electric Authority to furnish electricity to the City of Atlantic Beach, for passage on first reading by title only. Mr. Holloway moved passage of said Ordinance on first reading by title only, seconded by Mr. Weldon, and following discussion the question was put and motion unanimously carried. Public Hearing on said Ordinance was set for 8:00 P. M. , December 23, 1968. Resolution #68-39 was presented covering changes in 1968 budget. Mr. Longo moved passage, seconded by Mr. Weldon. These changes are for purpose of paying off two notes due First National Beach Bank, loaned us to pay on garbage truck. Mr. Howell put the question and motion carried. Copy of Resolution #68-39 is attached hereto and made a part hereof. Mr. Longo moved that the Treasurer be authorized to pay the two notes dated July 10, 1968 and August 13, 1968 at the First National Beach Bank from the mailable funds, seconded by Mr. Rosborough and carried. The report of the Public Works Department through December 9, 1968 was received for information and filing. The reports of the Fire Department for October 1968 and the Police Department for November 1968 were received for information and filing. Chief Stucki advised he had no other report. A request was presented from the Florida State Road Department requesting the City to sign an agreement with the State Road Department to take over maintenance and operation of the traffic control devices on Atlantic Boulevard at Mayport Road, Penman Road, and 3rd Street. Mr. Howell stated we have not kept them up before, we did not put them there, they were put there by the Road Department and/or the Jacksonville Expressway Authority, and doesn' t know why we have to pay for them. They are on a state road. Mr. Weldon moved the City Manager write them and decline the request, seconded by Mr. Longo and carried. Mr. Holloway would like to see us do something about beautifying the median strips on Atlantic Boulevard. Thinks we should do something even if Neptune Beach doesn' t do anything. He asked the City Manager to come up with some plan. It was agreed that something should be done with those that do not have the ditches, and don' t see much that can be done with them. The City Manager will handle. Minutes 12/9/68 Page #4 There being no further business, the Mayor declared the meeting adjourned. Willi am S . Howel Mayor-Commissioner Attest: j}7 Adele S.
