It was also pointed out that if the legislation passed, the city would be responsible to pay legal fees for the appellant, if they win plus its own legal fees. John Baillie of 1923 Beach Avenue stated he favored 51256 and pointed out the expenses involved in challenging current law. City Manager Jarboe stated he liked to call the proposed legislation the "Big Developers Relief Bill" and it would take away local control by allowing the appeal to go directly to federal court.

Mayor Shaughnessy read the ordinance by title only and opened the floor for a Public Hearing. Alan Potter of 374 Second Street informed the Commission that state law allows cities to set rates and charge up to a 25% service charge for customers outside of the city. Mr. Potter stated it does not differentiate between classes of customers and he felt any discounts given to customers outside of the city limits would be unfair since those people living inside the city limits would have to make up the difference. Since no one else wished to speak, the Public Hearing was declared closed. After a brief discussion concerning the wording of the ordinance, Commissioners Meserve and Borno withdrew the motion and second respectively. BEAVER X Motion: Deny Ordinance 80-97-60. BORNO X X ME SERVE X X MITCHELSON X There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously. SHAUGHNESSY X 7. New Business: A. Action on a request filed by Mr. and Mrs. Louis Keith to appeal to the City Commission as the Board of Appeals to rule on the Building Official's interpretation of the Standard Housing Code Building Official Don Ford stated the city adopted the Standard Housing Code in 1989 and interpretation of the definition of "habitable room" from the code was in question, resulting in the appeal to the Commission sitting as the Board of Appeals. Mr. and Mrs. Keith do not believe their proposed addition was a habitable room. Building Official Ford's memo dated November 5, 1997, including attachments, are attached and made part of this official record as Attachment B. Lynn Keith of 1845 Tierra Verde Drive read a prepared statement and presented supporting documentation indicating why they believed the proposed sun room (enclosable porch) addition should not be considered a habitable room. The supporting documentation is attached and made part of this official record as Attachment C. Mrs. Keith pointed out that if heating was required in the room, then it would have to meet the State of Florida Energy Code and because the proposed addition contains more than 50% M O E T C Minutes Page -7- I Y ONE N November 10, 1997 CONfMISSIONERS N D s O glass, it cannot meet the Energy Code. Commissioner Mitchelson inquired as to the size of the room and was told it was 352 square feet. Commissioner Beaver inquired as to how the room would be used and was told it would house a hot tub, exercise equipment and some chairs. He also inquired how the room was entered and was told it was separated from the main house by an insulated sliding glass door. The Commissioners then examined floor plans for the room presented by Mrs. Keith. Much discussion ensued concerning the application of the Florida Energy Code to the proposed addition. Commissioner Borno asked Building Official Ford if the 50% statement was true and Building Official Ford explained the use of insulated windows would allow the applicants to meet the energy requirement, however, the Keiths did not want to use this type of window. Motion: Uphold Building Official Ford's interpretation of BEAVER X BORNO X X the Standard Housing Code with regard to "habitable room" and ME SERVE x x deny the request of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Keith of 1845 Tierra MITCHELSON X Verde Drive. SHAUGHNESSY X Mayor Shaughnessy believed there was some ambiguities in The Standard Housing Code, and questioned its intent. Mayor Shaughnessy pointed out that the outside envelope of the existing insulated house had not changed and then read Section 106.4.1 of The Standard Housing Code. Commissioner Meserve inquired if there were any other recent additions throughout the City which did not meet the code, and Building Official Ford responded that there were none. Commissioners Meserve and Borno concurred that the Building Official had interpreted the Code the only way he could and the Commission could not bend the rules for the Keiths. Commissioner Mitchelson stated he believed it was a minimal code applied to a habitable room and agreed with Building Official Ford. In conclusion, Mayor Shaughnessy stated it was a matter of interpretation and NI S 0 E T C Minutes Page -8- t ON Y N E N November 10, 1997 COMMISSIONERS N D S 0 she believed that just because it had been interpreted that way in the past, two wrongs do not make a right. There being no further discussion, the question was called and the motion to deny the request carried by a four to one vote with Mayor Shaughnessy voting nay. B. Authorize Change Order No. 1 for addition of sewer repairs to the Saratoga/Forrestal/Belvedere Streets Utility Improvements in the amount of+$49,170.00 and associated time extension and authorize the Public Works Director to sign the Change Order Motion: Authorize Change Order No. 1 for addition of sewer BEAVER x BORNO X X repairs to the Saratoga/Forrestal/Belvedere Streets Utility MESERVE X X Improvements in the amount of+$49,170.00 and associated time MITCHELSON X extension and authorize the Public Works Director to sign the SHAUGHNESSY X Change Order. Assistant to the Public Works Director Jim Jacques explained that the manhole had settled 1.5' vertically during the past twelve years causing collapsed sewer mains twelve feet around the manhole. Commissioner Borno inquired as to the cause of the collapsed sewer mains and was informed improperly installed PVC pipe caused the problem. Commissioner Mitchelson asked if the project would still come in under budget after completion of the work in Change Order No. 1, and was told it would come in under budget or at budget. There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously. C. Approve 9-1-1 Agreement with the City of Jacksonville and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement. BEAVER X Motion: Approve 9-1-1 Agreement with the City of Jacksonville BORNO X X and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement. MESERVE x x MITCHELSON X SHAUGHNESSY X Mayor Shaughnessy explained the agreement was basically the same as in previous years. Commissioner Beaver inquired as to the annual percentage rate and the amourt of money to be reimbursed to the city. Public Safety Director Thompson stated the rate had increased from 25%to 30%this year and would reimburse the city M S O E T C Minutes Page -9- i O Y O NE N November 10, 1997 COMMISSIONERS N D S O approximately $60,000.00. There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously. D.

MITCHELSON X SHAUGHNESSY X It was explained this is a requirement to close out the Beaches Drug Task Force Grant and it verifies that the city has an Equal Employment Opportunity Plan in compliance with federal and state guidelines. There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously. E. Approve Change Orders and authorize payment to the contractors for CDBG housing rehabilitation BEAVER X Motion: Approve Change Orders and authorize payment to the BORNO X X contractors for CDBG housing rehabilitation, as recommended by MESERVE X X staff. MITCHELSON X SHAUGHNESSY X City Manager Jarboe gave background information on this item and explained from now on the city would utilize the more restrictive purchasing procedure of the City of Atlantic Beach which requires that change orders be approved by the City Commission, as outlined in a memo from Community Development Director George Worley, which is attached and made part of this official record as Attachment D. There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously. 8.

Mr. and Mrs. Louis Keith are requesting relief from the requirements of the Standard Housing Code_ (Adopted 6-12-89) Specifically, they have stated they do not believe the proposed room addition is a "habitable room". In my review process l determine the type of structure, the physical properties of the building and the specific parts of the minimum standard codes that apply to the stn irtyre. The proposed addition submitted by the Keiths is an alteration of an existing structure. The screen porch is being enclosed, therefore, the Standard Housing Code and the Standard Building Code were used for the plan review. The Standard Housing Code is used for existing structures to ensure the minimum facilities are in place,. Le_, water,electric,..heat, et(. The-Standardauilding-a_dea.are used to ensure all new construction is built to minimum standards. Section 101.3.1 of the Standard Rousing Code "shall apply to all buildings or portions thereof, all accessory structures or portions thereof located on residential, used or unused, designed or intended to be used for human habitation or the.Storage of materials associated with human habitation." The key word in this section is habitation. 'A "habitable room" as defined in the housing code states "a space in a building far living, sleeping, eating or cooking. Bathrooms, toilet compartments, closets, halls, storage or utility space, and similar areas are not considered habitable space"- Since.the.term "sun room" is not described in the code the building official must determine if the room Jim Jarboe Page two November 5, 1997 is habitable or not. To determine this l select which type of room is closest to the design of the proposed room, i.e., the living, sleeping, eating, or cooking rooms (habitable) or the bathroom, toilet compartments, closets, halls, storage, or utility space (non-habitable). When comparing this room with other rooms, the closest comparison would be a den, family room, etc. Based on this conclusion the room is considered habitable. I have included the aforementioned code sections for your perusal. I have also included the section of the Standard Housing Code (Section 106.4.1) concerning the duties of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals. Section 106.4.1 of the Standard Housing Code states the duties of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals_ They are as follows: 1. To consider and determine appeals whenever it is claimed that the true intent and meaning of this code or any of its regulations have been misconstrued or wrongly interpreted. 2. To permit, in appropriate cases where the application of the requirement of this Code in the allowance of the stated time for the performance of any action required hereunder would appear to cause undue hardship on any owner, one or more extensions of time, not to exceed 120 days each, from the date of such decision of the Board.

Based on the information she provided me, she was told that no energy code requirements would be made. As a result of additional information you provided to me and review of plans submitted to your office, I have reversed my opinion given to Ms. Keith • I telephoned and spoke to Ms. Keith at 9:00 am, today, November 6, 1997. I explained that due to insufficient information she provided, she was given an opinion that I'm now reversing after review of more complete data. The enclosure of the porch as described on the submitted plans would require that energy code requirements be met. :vo ,1 -CC-�f -2- )5?/ N o 1 J ' A 1 .1 ' 4 i � H `) ► • /tip T J -- -t- __) , -Iiik �_ � Ii \ic I I �� y7� I F' i i r c 1 - r i e i y 11 1 I. -i \ 11 1 i- I 1 I' — — i--J 2, f .1 �� _ -'– - :\- lel il / ' -- f T ,.... . _ __ _______-- _ , ,. , _ -,>- - . ...„___ ,__.:_, - •rieH °)rt1.1:51X1 – _ ,. ___,/ - irz,17) IN IL4 "3 1.1)1.YH / / � /r f7- /-1.- .)IJ3 7 -X I3 H71ti .,----: 2 _ Z1 / / j .,..)•.

Reason given for the denial was that the sunroom as designed does not comply with the Florida Energy Efficiency Code. As follow-up to my conversation of October 30, 1997 with Mr. Jim Jarboe, AtlanticBeach City Manager, I would appreciate it if an appeal of this ruling could be made an agenda item at the November 10th meeting of the Atlantic Beach City Commission. Prior to the meeting we will submit to you what we believe are pertinent documents supporting and bearing on our appeal. In brief, however, the situation is this: Blueprints which were drawn and submitted were for an enclosable sunroom (all screened windows and sliding glass doors) to take the place of an existing totally screened porch. Addition of sliding windows and sliding glass doors was to allow the space to be closed off in the event of rainy weather. As there was never any intent to heat or cool the space other than by two ceiling fans (which are specifically exempted from the Code) the room did not fall under the Energy Code. The Atlantic Beach Building Department has advised that if any space is able to be enclosed, it becomes a "habitable room" under their interpretation of that term in the local Atlantic Beach Housing Code, and the space must therefore be heated, as required by that Code. The definition of "habitable room" in the Housing Code is as follows: "A space in a building for living, sleeping, eating or cooking. Bathrooms, toilet compartments, closets, halls, storage or utility space, and similar areas are not considered habitable space." (Emphasis added.) The State of Florida Department of Community Affairs, Codes and Standards, which administers the Florida Energy Code, advises that there is no question that the Energy Code does not apply if a room is neither heated nor cooled by energy-using mechanical means. That, after all, is the ultimate energy efficiency. They do say that if a municipality, by local ordinance, forces its residents to heat an enclosable porch, however, then that energy usage then requires the room to comply with the Energy Code. We have spent over $650 in having blueprints drawn up for a non-heated or cooled sunroom which we can use to house our hot tub, various exercise r -2- equipment and plants. The room is basically an enlarged version of the same screened porch we have enjoyed for the past twelve years, but with the added ability to close it off during blowing rainstorms. Since the room as designed cannot be energy efficiently heated because of having too much glass, if we decide to continue with this project we will have to have another set of blueprints drawn to drastically cut down on the window-space and "openness" of the room. The whole character of the room we have enjoyed for the past twelve years and wanted to continue to enjoy--with the mere addition of closable windows--will change. We believe that in Atlantic Beach, Florida, where the mean temperatore is 68°, and where a dwelling unit already has primary living spaces (living room, bedrooms, dining room, kitchen) which are properly heated and which its residents can retreat to during our brief periods of intense cold, that such auxiliary living spaces as garages, sunrooms, recreation rooms and enclosable porches should not be considered "habitable rooms" under the local Housing Code, and therefore not be required to be energy wasteful by being heated. We believe that our auxiliary enclosable sunroom is no more a "habitable room" than is our enclosable garage/workshop; and that both were intended to fall under the "similar areas are not habitable space" portion of the above definition in the Housing Code. We believe, in short, that there is enough flexibility in the definition for an interpretation to be made which utilizes common sense and good judgement. Respectfully, Louis and Lynn Keith 1845 Tierra Verde Drive Atlantic Beach, FL 32233-4527 P.S. As additional information, on the morning of October 31, 1997 contact was made with the following officials in the following municipalities/ counties to see if they have also adopted the SBCCI Housing Code and if they interpret an enclosable porch/sunroom to be a habitable room requiring heating. Like Atlantic Beach, all cities and counties contacted have adopted the SBCCI Housing Code. None interpret an enclosable porch/sunroom to be a habitable room requiring heating: Art Barthlow Jacksonville Building & Zoning Plan Reviewer (Also, Jack Peeler, Bldg. Insp. Supv. , of that Department) Jud Spence Jacksonville Beach Code Enforcement Officer -3- Tony Outland Plan Reviewer, St. John's County (Ponte Vedra Beach, St. Augustine) Jon Hays Neptune Beach Building Official All of the above individuals advised that they had no problem with our using their names in this regard or quoting them that they and their counties/ municipalities did not interpret the SBCCI Housing Code to require that an enclosable porch/sunroom be heated. cc: City Manager City Attorney r ' CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS KEITH APPLICATION FOR BUILDING PERMIT FOR SUNROOM ADDITION Tues. , 10/21/97 - Homeowner applies for permit to construct sunroom addition onto residence. States on permit application that sunroom addition will not be heated or cooled. Professionally prepared blueprints submitted with the application show planned installation of two ceiling fans but no systems or components indicating future installation of heating or cooling equipment. Wed., 10/22/97 - Homeowner is advised that Form 600C-93, part of the Florida Energy Efficiency Code for Building Construction, must be completed before the permit can be issued. Homeowner explains that Form 600C-93 clearly states that it is only dealing with conditioned space, and that there is no intent to heat or cool the enclosable sunroom, only ventilate it with ceiling fans, which are exempt under the Energy Code. Mr. Ford advises that because the existing screened porch is now being made an enclosed space, the Florida Energy Code requires it to be heated and cooled. He explains that this is because if the windows on the room were closed, that this would heat up the space in the room to such an extent that the central air conditioner cooling the rest of the house would have to work harder, thus wasting energy. Homeowner responds that by that logic, every enclosed garage in Atlantic Beach would have to be heated and cooled under the Energy Code. Homeowner asks to see the Energy Code reference which states that all enclosed spaces have to be heated and cooled. Homeowner is provided with 1 page document which appears to be a reference from Section 553 of the Florida Statutes. Thurs. , 10/23/97 - As the information provided by Mr. Ford did not appear to reflect any requirement to heat and cool an enclosed attached sunroom, Homeowner calls Department of Community Affairs in Tallahassee (promulgators of the Florida Energy Code) for clarification of Energy Code requirements in connection with an enclosed sunr000m. Homeowner is advised that Mr. Ford is incorrect in his interpretation; that there is no requirement in the Energy Code that a space be heated and cooled -- that the Code is applicable only if the space is going to be heated and cooled by separate mechanical means. The Department advises that some Building Departments, to cover themselves, like to have something in writing in their files from the homeowner specifically stating that the addition will not be heated or cooled. Department of Community Affairs faxes 3 pages to Homeowner to document their interpretation of the Code. Fri. , 10/24/97 - Homeowner prepares and submits letter to Building Department advising that there is no intent to heat or cool the addition by separate heating or cooling systems, along with 3-page fax from Dept. of Community Affairs explaining correct interpretation of Energy Code application. Upon turning in this information, Homeowner is now advised by Building Dept. -2- employee that even if the State does not require it, that there is a "local code" requiring heating and cooling of the addition. Upon asking for a copy of the local code, Homeowner is told it will have to be furnished by Mr. Ford upon his return from vacation the following Tuesday. As this is the first time any such "local code" has been mentioned in connection with heating and cooling the enclosed sunroom, Homeowner speaks briefly with Mr. Jim Jarboe, City Manager, on this date, outlining the situation and providing him also with a copy of the faxed material from the State and the letter reiterating Homeowner's non-intention to heat or cool the space. Mr. Jarboe was unfamiliar with the specific local code the Building Department employee had referred to, but promised to set up a meeting about the matter with the Homeowner, City Attorney Jensen, Mr. Ford and himself when Mr. Ford returned from vacation the following Tuesday. Homeowner is told he will be contacted Tuesday with the time and date of the meeting. Tues. , 10/28/97 - Homeowner, working away from his office, calls City Manager Jarboe to find out status of meeting. Homeowner is told that he should have received another fax from the State at his office advising that a local code which requires heating of the addition would require compliance with the Energy Code. City Manager Jarboe advises that he has spoken with City Attorney Jensen about the matter, that it is up to Mr. Jensen's interpretation of the local code, and that he would get back with Homeowner the following day concerning when a meeting could be held. Homeowner returns to office and retrieves second fax from Dept. of Community Affairs in Tallahassee, which states that Energy Code compliance is clearly not necessary for an unconditioned building or part thereof, but that Mr. Ford has called and advised them that Atlantic Beach has a "local code" requiring that the space be heated. Such required heating would mean that energy would have to be used, which would thus make the addition have to comply with the Energy Code. In a follow-up conversation with Mr. Randall Talley, author of both faxes, he apologized for having to send the second fax, stating that it simply hadn't occurred to him that any municipality in Florida could possibly have a local ordinance requiring that a enclosed porch/sunroom be heated; that up until Mr. Ford had called him, he had never heard of such a thing. After receiving the second fax, Homeowner again requests a copy of the "local code" referred to by Building Official Don Ford. Homeowner is furnished with page 1 and page 14 of what is referred to at the bottom of the pages as Standard Housing Code/1991. Wed. , 10/29/97 - As the two pages of the so-called "local code" furnished by Mr. Ford do not mention Atlantic Beach by name, and as the section on "Heating Facilities" (which is the section of the code Mr. Ford claims requires that the sunroom be heated) appears to be phrased more within the context of protecting tenants from being subjected to substandard living conditions by landlords, Homeowner requests and is provided with the complete text of the so-called "local code" -- which turns out to be the SBCCI Standard -3- Housing Code. (SBCCI = Southern Building Code Congress International, Inc.) . (As information, the SBCCI Standard Housing Code is one of ten generic codes published by the Southern Building Code Congress International for adoption by state or local governments. Other codes of the ten include Standard Building Code, Standard Mechanical Code, Standard Plumbing Code, etc. , etc. The SBCCI Standard Housing Code states in its Preface that its purpose is to provide the basic minimum housing standards deemed essential for safe and healthful living. The SBCCI states that jurisdictions adopting the generic standard codes "may make necessary additions, deletions and amendments" in order to make the codes relevant and pertinent to the particular locale in which they are adopted. Atlantic Beach has apparently adopted the Housing Code--and all the other generic codes--in their entirety; as have apparently hundreds of other cities and counties in the southeast United States and Florida. This is not, in short, a code which is in any way specific to Atlantic Beach.) Since by 4:15 on 10/29 no call had been received by Mr. Jarboe concerning a meeting date and time on this matter, Homeowner called City Attorney Jensen to ascertain if he knew whether or not a meeting had been scheduled. Mr. Jensen advised that the meeting had not yet been set up, but that Homeowner would be contacted by Mr. Jarboe's office the following day with the date and time of the meeting. Thurs. , 10/30/97 - Upon request, Homeowner is furnished with documentation reflecting the date Atlantic Beach adopted the SBCCI Standard Housing Code as well as documentation purportedly stating that the City Commission is the body which serves as the Board of Adjustments and Appeals mentioned in the Standard Housing Code. It is noted, however, that in actuality, the Commission is never specifically named in the Resolution to be the Board of Adjustments and Appeals for the Standard Housing Code, but only for the Standard Building Code and the Stormwater Management Utility Ordinance -- two entirely different codes. Homeowner asks Mr. Ford if the meeting between Mr. Jarboe, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Ford and the Homeowner has been set up yet. Mr. Ford advises that it is his understanding that there will be no meeting; that Mr. Jarboe has advised him that he and Mr. Jensen have decided that the matter should go before the full City Commission. Mr. Ford furnishes Homeowner with letter which appears to be a denial of the requested building permit based on lack of Energy Code compliance and outlining appeal procedures. Mr. Jarboe calls and asks if Homeowner would like an appeal to be made an agenda item on the November 10th Commission meeting. He advises that if Homeowner does, a letter needs to be submitted to the City Clerk requesting same. Fri. , 10/31/97 - Per Mr. Jarboe's instructions, letter is prepared and -4- submitted to City Clerk asking that our appeal of Mr. Ford's ruling be made an agenda item at the November 10th meeting of the Commission. Prior to delivering the appeal letter to the City Clerk, however, Homeowner personally delivers a copy of the letter to Mr. Jarboe, in one last attempt to resolve the matter informally. The letter outlines contacts which have been made this very morning with the building departments of several counties and municipalities adjacent to Atlantic Beach; including Jacksonville, Neptune Beach, Jacksonville Beach, and St. John's County (Ponte Vedra/St. Augustine). All building departments contacted have adopted the same SBCCI Standard Housing Code as Atlantic Beach. None of the building departments contacted interpret the Housing Code to mean that an enclosable porch or sunroom is required to be heated. As several departments pointed out, the Standard Housing Code is really intended to ensure that minimum living standards are provided for tenants who are renting a space to live in. As several also pointed out, were Mr. Ford's interpretation to be accepted, no aluminum sunroom enclosures or Florida rooms--which are constructed all over Jacksonville and the Beaches areas and all over Florida--would be allowed to be built, since all contain too much glass to ever be able to comply with the Energy Code (since requiring them to heat the room under the Standard Housing Code would force them at that point to comply with the Energy Code.) Homeowner explains to Mr. Jarboe that there is no desire to embarrass Mr. Ford or Atlantic Beach or waste any more time than has already been expended by airing this matter in public before the Commission; and that perhaps if Mr. Jarboe read the appeal letter, the matter could be resolved without it being necessary to appeal it to the full Commission. Mr. Jarboe read the letter, said he would speak to Mr. Jensen, but still felt the appeal needed to be heard by the commission. After speaking with Mr. Jarboe, Homeowner hand delivers a copy of the appeal letter to City Attorney Jensen's office. Mon., 11/3/97 - Having heard nothing further from Mr. Jarboe concerning an informal resolution of this matter, Homeowner prepares this Chronology of Events as supporting documentation for Homeowner's appeal. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS It is noted that Homeowner has observed numerous homes throughout Atlantic Beach that have attached enclosed porches or sunrooms which do not appear to comply with the Housing Code and thus, by extension, the Energy Code. Homeowner will be happy to provide specific addresses of these homes to the Commissioners, if they so desire, for enforcement action. Homeowner wonders how these residents were able to obtain permits for these enclosed porches/sunrooms and Homeowner is not -- since it is physically impossible for any room which is more than 50% glass to ever be in compliance • . -5- with the Energy Code (if required to be heated under the Housing Code) ! This would appear to be why the following definition was incorporated into the Florida Energy Code under Section 202 DEFINITIONS: SUN SPACE----a totally enclosed, unconditioned space which is built substantially of glass, attached to the conditioned space of the building, and designed primarily for winter space heating. (Emphasis added.) The above term defines exactly what Homeowner has been attempting to obtain a permit to build. Mr. Ford is requiring Homeowner to heat what the State of Florida defines as an unconditioned space. He is doing this because the generic SBCCI Standard Housing Code states that "all habitable rooms" must be heated -- and Mr. Ford is interpreting a Florida room (or an enclosed porch, or sunroom, or whatever term one wants to use) to be a habitable room under the Standard Housing Code. For Florida residents, it would seem more appropriate that "habitable room" be interpreted in a manner more consistent with how the Florida Energy Code defines Primary Living Area (again from Section 202 DEFINITIONS) for its citizens: PRIMARY LIVING AREA----a family room or great room, or a living room if no family room or great room is present. Formal living rooms, where a family room or great room is present, dining rooms and kitchens are not considered primary living areas. In closing, Homeowner respectfully requests that in light of all the above, building permit for Keith sunroom addition be issued without further delay or impediment. )6 • ' A-AL4L/ Louis and Lynn Keith 1845 Tierra Verde Drive Atlantic Beach, FL 32233-4527 Phone: 247-1242 ATTACHMENT D NOVEMBER 10, 1997 COMMISSION MEETING STAFF REPORT 97 AGENDA ITEM: CDBG Rehabilitation Change orders SUBMITTED BY: George Worley II, Community Development Director DATE: November 5, 1997 BACKGROUND: During this years CDBG Housing Rehabilitation program four houses were selected and bid out. The CDBG contract this year contains a provision that the City of Jacksonville purchasing procedures be followed. The four houses were bid using the City of Jacksonville's bidding procedure, but were awarded by the City of Atlantic Beach City Commission. During the work on these houses a number of change orders occurred, which were processed administratively by me as been done during past contract years under the City of Jacksonville process. Change orders are a very common element of rehabilitation work and additional funds are retained within the line items of the CDBG budget to cover such eventualities. The City of Jacksonville procedures focus on the line items within the budget and do not require additional approval of changes unless the budgeted line item amount is exceeded. During the routine processing of these change orders this past month it came to the City Managers attention that, although we complied with the procedures identified in the CDBG contract, we were not fully in compliance with the City of Atlantic Beach purchasing procedures which require change orders to be approved by the City Commission. He directed that this request be placed on the agenda for action. To avoid any such discrepancy in the future the City Manager has directed that the more restrictive purchasing procedure be used. This will insure that both procedures are complied with. RECOMMENDATION: The work covered by these change orders has been properly completed and inspected by the rehabilitation inspector, the respective homeowners, and myself. Staff requests that these change orders be approved to allow the contractors to be paid for the additional work done. ATTACHMENTS: 1) Change orders for four houses rehabilitated. 2) Line item budget showing additional funds REVIEWED BY CITY MANAGER: • GEN IA ITEM NO.
