06-02-97 v CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH SPECIAL CALLED MEETING 7:15 PM - June 2, 1997 Cali to order 1. Public Hearing on proposed assessments for a sewer lines on Beach Avenue between 16th and 20th Streets, and on Dewees Avenue, Shell Street, Coquina Place, Ocean Boulevard and Seminole road 2. Any other business Adjournment MINUTES OF THE SPECIAL CALLED MEETING OF ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION HELD IN CITY HALL, 800 SEMINOLE ROAD, AT 7:15 PM ON MONDAY, JUNE 2, 1997. Present: Lyman T. Fletcher, Mayor Mike Borno John Meserve Steven Rosenbloom, and Suzanne Shaughnessy, Commissioners Also: James R. Jarboe, City Manager Alan C. Jensen, City Attorney Robert Kosoy, Public Works Director James Jacques, Asst. Public Works Director Maureen King, City Clerk The meeting was called to order by Mayor Fletcher. 1. Public hearing on proposed assessments for a sewer line on Beach Avenue between 16th and 20th Streets, and on Dewees Avenue, Shell Street, Coquina Place, Ocean Boulevard and Seminole Road Jim Jacques explained the city had followed the procedure set forth in Florida Statutes to establish assessments, including notifying property owners by mail and by publication of legal notices in the Florida Times Union. He explained that changes had been made in the assessment roll as directed by the City Commission at previous meetings on January 21 and February 4, 1997. Mr. Jacques explained that properties within 100 feet of an existing sewer had been excluded from previous assessment rolls but, at the direction of the City Commission, these properties were now included if the properties were not receiving and paying for sewer service. He further explained that assessments were based on the Partial Assessment Method selected by the City Commission on February 4, 1997. Mr. Jacques further explained that the cost per front foot had been reduced from earlier estimates which were based on the bid price of the project. The actual cost of the project, including the cost of advertising, is approximately $50,000.00 less that the bid price, resulting in the lower front foot cost. (Notes on development of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessment Roll is attached hereto as Exhibit A; Summary of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessments including the Partial Assessment Method selected by the City Commission on February 4, 1997 is attached as Exhibit B). The Mayor then opened the floor for a public hearing. Don Wolfson, 1725 Beach Avenue, referred to several non-conforming lots he owned on the west side of Beach Avenue. He said he intended to use the property for parking purposes only and felt that since sewer service would, therefore, not be required, the property should not be Page Two Minutes of Special Called Meeting June 2, 1997 assessed. Mr. Wolfson inquired whether property owners could be assessed if and when they connected such lots to the sewer system. In further discussion, it was felt that since the assessment roll would be adopted by the City Commission at the meeting of June 9, 1997, all properties to be assessed must be included at that time. Mr. Jacques also read from the minutes of the meeting of February 4, 1997, indicating that the matter of non-conforming lots had been discussed at that time and City Commission had voted to include 451 feet of non-conforming lots in the assessments. No change was made in this regard. William Morgan, 1945 Beach Avenue, distributed a plan of six lots on the north side of Nineteenth Street between Beach Avenue and Seminole Road, shown as Tract "A"(Exhibit C). He explained that he had installed a sewer line on Nineteenth Street to serve these six lots but currently only the lot on the corner of Nineteenth Street and Beach Avenue has been developed and is served by a septic tank. Mr. Morgan indicated was a stub-out on Nineteenth Street for connection in the future and he requested that this lot be exempted from the assessment since it would not connect to the new sewer line. The documents presented by Mr. Morgan are attached hereto as Exhibit C. Jim Jacques explained that, based on the guidelines established by the City Commission, since the property had not already connected to the existing sewer it had been included in the assessment roll. Discussion ensued and it was agreed that if Mr. Morgan would agree to connect to the Nineteenth Street sewer line the assessment would be deleted. Commissioner Rosenbloom felt that, according to the guidelines established by the City Commission, unless Mr. Morgan agreed to connect to the existing sewer, the property should be assessed. He also inquired whether similar conditions might apply to other properties. Commissioner Meserve felt the City Commission should apply the guidelines equally and unless the city received a commitment from Mr. Morgan to connect to the existing sewer line, the property should be assessed. The Mayor inquired regarding when Mr. Morgan would connect the property to the existing sewer line and Mr. Morgan indicated that the property was currently on the market for sale and he agreed not to sell the property until the sewer connection had been made. Discussion then ensued regarding Beach Avenue Condominiums located at 1973, 1975, and 1977 Beach Avenue. A letter had been received from Garnet Walker, the resident at 1977 Beach Avenue, suggesting that the 100 ft. property should be assessed as 28% each for 1973 and 1977 Beach Avenue and 44% for 1975 Beach Avenue; however, a letter was subsequently received from W.L. Arthur, the resident at 1975 Beach Avenue indicating that the Duval County public Page Three Minutes of Special Called Meeting June 2, 1997 records showed the end units to be 33 ft. while the center unit was 34 ft. The assessments had, therefore been computed based on the front footage as reflected in the public records. The City Commission concurred. The letters from Ms. Walker and Mr. Arthur are attached hereto as Exhibit D. Commissioner Meserve then referred to four properties referenced in page two of Mr. Jacques' memorandum to the City Clerk, dated May 30, 1997, attached hereto as Exhibit E. The properties in question were connected to city sewer but were not being billed for service; one property had not paid the required impact fee. Following brief discussion, it was determined that the questions regarding these properties was an administrative matter and would be handled by staff. With reference to property described as part of Government Lot 3, (RE #169524-0010), owned by George Grandy, which was discussed at a previous meeting, Mr. Jacques pointed out no commitment had been received from Mr. Grandy indicating that he was willing to replat the property. The City attorney reported that Mr. Grandy had been in contact with him and had indicated that he was willing to replat the property as suggested by the City Commission. The City Attorney advised that this matter would be completed when the City Commission had finalized the assessments. The City Manager suggested an agreement be drafted between the city and the owners of properties on which special considerations had been made. The City Attorney agreed to draft documents which could be recorded in the Duval County public records. Commissioner Shaughnessy inquired how easy or difficult it would be for such agreements to be reversed by property owners and the City Attorney advised if an owner willingly and freely placed covenants and restrictions on his property, such restrictions to run with the land and designated to be in perpetuity, they would be difficult to dissolve. With reference to three properties on Beach Avenue which also fronted on Seminole Road (Page 4, Exhibit E), Jim Jacques asked how these properties were to be treated. The City Attorney advised these properties could be included in the assessment roll to be assessed contingent upon hooking up to the Beach Avenue sewer; however if the properties connected to the sewer on Beachside Court or Seminole Road there would be no assessment. 2. Any other business Commissioner Meserve reported the Wonderwood Connector had been discussed that afternoon in a Finance Committee meeting and the matter had not been brought out of sub-committee. Councilman Warren Jones indicated if he received enough information, particularly from Rep. Page Four Minutes of Special Called Meeting June 2, 1997 Tillie Fowler's office with respect to the time sensitivity, he would have a special meeting of the Finance Committee and have the matter voted up or down before the meeting of the City Council on Tuesday, June 10, 1997. He indicated that Rep. Tillie Fowler had indicated that time was of the essence and $40 million in matching federal funds could be lost, which would probably kill the project. He felt the local elected officials needed to keep the pressure on the City Council, particularly Eric Smith and Warren Jones to persuade Councilman Tullis to bring the issue out of committee. Commissioner Rosenbloom suggested the Beaches Mayors and Capt. Gaudio visit both Eric Smith and Warren Jones and urge them to support the matter. The City Commission concurred. There being no further business to come before the City Commission, the Mayor declared the meeting adjourned at 8:55 PM. LYMAN T. FLETCHER Mayor/Presiding Officer ATTEST: MA EN KING i Certified Municipal Clerk ExN\ aIT A. MINUTES - a cr.] Notes on Development of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessment Roll Nlay 30, 1997 1. Property Owners derived from 1996 Tax Roll list in City Clerk's office. 2. Subdivision,Block and Lot Numbers came from latest Property Ownership Maps from City of Jacksonville, as well as Tax Roll descriptions, in City Clerk's office. 3. Front Footage obtained from latest Property Ownership Maps from City of Jacksonville for each lot, or from Tax Roll descriptions, in City Clerk's office, or other available information. Front Foot dimension is adjusted to Median lot width for odd-shaped lots. 4. Determination of whether lot owner is assessed for sewer: a. Sewer assessment is developed if new sewer main improvements are to be constructed in the street fronting home lot. b. No sewer assessment is developed if lot owner is currently paying a monthly sewer service charge to Atlantic Beach. c. If only sewer service line from an existing main to the property line is constructed, no special assessment is developed. d. For corner lots,the shortest lot dimension is used for calculation of assessment per City Codes. e. No assessment is charged if any portion of lot has sewer service from another street, or can obtain sewer service from another street for lots with two fronting streets. 5. The lot owners are sorted according to Real Estate Number and location of improvements for the sewer work. 6. Abbreviations in Names: Jr. (Junior); Tr. (Trust)or(Trustee); Est. (Estate) 7. Sanitary sewer mains to be installed on Beach Avenue,Dewees Avenue, Shell Street, Coquina Street,Ocean Boulevard, and Seminole Road,as shown on the maps on file in the City Clerk's office. 8. Based on Previous Assessments, Property Owners will be Assessed Based on Front Footage. Costs for sewer installation are assigned evenly per front foot of property. 9. Costs to be assessed are based on established Assessment Rate per Front Foot as developed in Exhibit"A"for"Full Assessment Method", which determines the,rate to be used under the approved"Partial Assessment Method". 10. Properties fronting on two streets will only be assessed if, and when,the property connects to sewer service from the new Beach Avenue area sewer mains.

Jacques,Assistant to the Public Works Director Date: May 30, 1997 Subject: Development of Final Assessment List Beach Avenue Sewer Assessments City Project No. AW9603 I have revised the costs for sewer assessments to reflect the actual costs for Beach Avenue Sewer main construction under the current project. The enclosed list will supercede the listing submitted on March 17, 1997. I have also prepared a current total of the cost of the Beach Avenue project as of the last invoice to the contractor. The project is continuing with other work,such as water main construction and paving,but the sewer work portion is completed. This calculation reflects the final cost to the City for constructing sewers in Beach Avenue under Part 1 of the project and in the Dewees Avenue area under Part 4 of the project. This shows a reduction in assessment costs from the estimated bid prices of$308,108.70 to the final costs of construction,plus City costs for advertisement of the Public Hearing for assessments,of$258,587.32. Based on the method of Partial Assessment as approved by the City Commission, the total amount recovered through the assessments is $170,099.27. The assessment rate is now established at$ 34.053 per front foot of assessed property. The Final Assessment Roll contains the latest information I have concerning the property owners, addresses, front footages and legal information. I have made several revisions from the earlier Preliminary Assessment Rolls. One of the situations that will require further review concerns property owners who were connected to the City sewer system prior to project construction,but have not paid either impact fees or monthly sewer charges. As had been discussed in MEMORANDUM May 30, 1997 Page No. 2 previous staff meetings, I have not included any of these property owners in the Final Assessment Roll. They will be notified to bring their sewer bills up to date by the water billing or building department. The properties listed below have previous sewer connections to existing sewer mains, but no have record of paying either sewer impact fees or monthly sewer charges: RE Number Name Address Paid Sewer Paid Monthly Impact Fee Sewer Y/N Charges Y/N 169663-0000 Edward Lane 1721 Beach Ave. Y N 169686-0000 Dominic Bisbano 1889 Beach Ave. Y N 169542-0000 Dominic Bisbano 1890 Beach Ave. Y N 169702-0050 Robert Huffman 2006 Beach Ave. N N If the City Manager or City Commission desire to add the above listed properties to the assessment roll, I will modify the roll to add the properties. Other properties, not subject to assessment for other reasons, were also discovered along Beach Avenue who are connected to the sewer system but have no record of paying monthly sewer charges. These properties are not addressed in this memo,but should be investigated by the building and water billing departments. We also discovered that two properties owned by Dr. Samuel Rukab, 1957 Beach Avenue, were not connected to an existing sewer, but had been billed for monthly sewer charges after Dr. Rukab had paid the impact fees in anticipation of connecting to the new sewer constructed under the Beach Avenue project. The water billing department should investigate if any refunds are due to Dr. Rukab. At the special Commission meeting on February 4, 1997, several items were discussed, which modified the methods of determining the assessment for specific properties. The following list summarizes the actions taken to comply with the direction of the City Commission: 1. The Partial Assessment Method is the current method for calculating the assessment rate to be applied to the various front footages of the assessed properties. The attached Summary of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessments shows the calculations to achieve at the Partial Assessment Method. MEMORANDUM May 30, 1997 Page No. 3 2. The "non-conforming", or"sub-standard" lots along Beach Avenue have been included in the.assessment roll, if the properties met the conditions for assessment as shown on the attached Notes for Development of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessment Roll. 3. The properties originally exempted by being within a 100 foot radius of an existing sewer have been included for assessment, if the properties met the conditions for assessment as shown on the attached Notes for Development of Beach Avenue Sewer Assessment Roti- 4. The George Grandy property, RE 169524-0010, part of Government Lot 3, has not been included in the assessment roll, assuming this small property will be joined by replatting or other legal means to the property at 1927 Beachside Court. The intent of the owner is to provide sewer service from Beachside Court which has an existing sewer. However, this property would be subject to a future assessment if the decision is made by the property owner to connect to the sewer on Beach Avenue. 5. The Bernice Morgan property, RE 169542-0705, Lot 1, Beachside Replat, has not been included in the assessment roll, assuming this small property will be joined by replatting or other legal means to the property at Beachside Court. The intent of the owner is to provide sewer service from Beachside Court which has an existing sewer. However, this property would be subject to a future assessment if the decision is made by the property owner to connect to the sewer on Beach Avenue. 6. The Sandra Martin property, RE 169500-0000, Lot 10, 44 Dewees Avenue, has had a recalculation of the front footage, since the property is not rectangular with a straightforward front footage. The following list shows the properties similarly recalculated to provide a median front footage calculation to be applied toward the assessment rate per front foot: RE Number Name Address Old Revised Footage Footage 169550-0000 Sandra Martin Lot 10, 44 Dewees Ave. 75 51.2 169551-0000 William Sheppard Lot 11, Dewees Ave. 65 47.4 169561-0010 Myra Burns Lot 5, 73 Coquina Place 59.6 47.3 169562-0000 Harriet James Lot 6, 79 Coquina Place 85 65 169563-0000 Harriet James Lot 7, 79 Coquina Place 75 66.95 169564-0000 Allen Alteri Lot 8, 1639 Ocean Blvd. 54 49.5 169564-0000 Allen Alteri Lot 9, 1639 Ocean Blvd. 57.3 43.65 169668-0000 Edward Lane Lot 28, 1735 Beach Ave. 73 61.5 7. The James Minter property, RE 169549-0000, Lots 8 & 9, 1632 Beach Avenue, has MEMORANDUM May 30, 1997 Page No. 4 had a new determination of the applicable front footage for assessment, assuming that both lots will be joined by replatting or other legal means to form a single lot. With the joining of lots,the front footage is then calculated as the short side of the now larger corner lot, in accordance with the City Codes. The total front footage for assessment is reduced from 135.66 feet to 100.7 feet. Following the directive for the properties listed in Items 4 and 5 above that, when replatted, will front on two streets, such as Beachside Court and Beach Avenue,a determination was made for similar properties listed below. The property is not listed on the assessment roll, assuming it will be the intent of the owner to provide sewer service from the fronting street which has an existing sewer other than Beach Avenue,. However,the property would be subject to a future assessment if the decision is made by the property owner to connect to the sewer on Beach Avenue, or the property is replatted into two or more parcels, with one parcel fronting on Beach Avenue: RE Number Name Address Other Fronting Street 169700-0000 Mary Belle Aldridge Trust Lots 67A, 68A Beach Ave. Seminole Rd. 169701-0000 John Heaney Lots 69A, 70A 2030 Beach Ave. Seminole Rd. 169712-0000 Louise Bissell Lot 71A, Beach Ave. Seminole Rd. I have included three maps of Beach Avenue and the surrounding area, which depict the lots to be assessed, with street addresses shown, and existing and proposed sewers. These maps could be considered the official Assessment Maps. The larger version of the maps is in my office at Public Works, and I have prepared new display maps with color codes for use during the upcoming Public Hearing. Please call if you need any further information. By copy of this memo, I am asking all receiving parties to provide comments or questions that should be addressed at the Public Hearing.
