83-01 v RESOLUTION 83-1
A RESOLUTION OPPOSING THE REOPENING OF SEMINOLE ROAD
WHEREAS, The Commission of the City of Atlantic Beach recognizes
that a serious problem exists, and will get worse with respect to traffic
flow to and from the Mayport Naval Station; and
WHEREAS, past City Commissions of Atlantic Beach have alerted those
effected parties about this problem as early as 1960; and
WHEREAS, no long term solution has been actively pursued by those
parties who propose and fund such projects, only short term suggestions;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ATLANTIC BEACH, FLORIDA that this Commission is opposed to the opening
of Seminole Road since it represents a hardship and hazard to its citizens,
particularly those living on or adjacent to the said road.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Commission encourages immediate
attention to the suggested project known as the westerly extension of
Wonderwood Road including a new bridge across the intracoastal waterway
which appears to be the best alternative, and hopes the Federal, State,
and Consolidated City of Jacksonville governments and departments will
pursue this, or any other viable long term solution with the utmost haste.
