Said ordinance was posted in accordance with Charter requirements. The Mayor opened the floor for a public hearing and invited comments from the audience. Charles Clarke of the Haskell Company, pointed out on a map the location of the additional 1.7 acres and explained how certain buildings would be relocated. Della Koenig, 780 Redfin Drive, asked the total number of units involved and commented on the general development in the area. Since no one else spoke for or against the ordinance, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed. Cook x x Edwards x Motion: Approve passage of Ordinance No. 90-90-152 on final Tucker x reading Weldon x x Gulliford x No discussion before the vote. The motion carried unanimously. 6. New Business: A. Public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan Mayor Gulliford opened the floor for a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan and invited comments from the audience. Mike Kring, 211 Pine Street spoke at length about the need for additional sidewalks and bike paths to encourage citizens to walk or use bicycles rather that automobiles for short distances. He also encouraged education in bike safety. He also spoke to the Recreation and Open Space Element and encouraged the acquisition of additional land for recreational purposes. He said there was a need for a year-round swimming pool but was opposed to user fees. Johnnie Tucker, 42 Eleventh Street, said he agreed with some of the improvements Mr. Kring suggested, however, consideration would have to be given to financing these projects. He said his major concern was whether ocean front homes could be rebuilt in the event they were destroyed by hurricanes or other causes, and he questioned the constitutionality of preventing such rebuilding. Lydia Charles, 303 Oceanwalk Drive, asked what citizen input had been considered in compiling the plan. Mr. Park of Gee & Jenson said the various elements of the plan had been before the Community Development Board and that while public comment was solicited, little had been received. Community Development Director, Rene' PAGE FIVE V V MINUTES NAME OF MARCH 26, 1990 COMMRS. MSYN Angers, said a number of workshops were held and all had been advertised. Mr. Park reminded the audience that another public . hearing would be held before the plan was adopted and that it was being forwarded to Tallahassee at this time as a draft. Since no one else wished to speak to the matter, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed and responded to some of the points raised. He said the city had acquired additional land which will be used for recreational purposes. The Mayor said he favored user fees, particularly since many of our recreational facilities are being used by people from outside our community at no expense. There being no further discussion, the Mayor called for a motion. Cook x Edwards x x Motion: Submit to the Department of Cciunity Affairs draft Tucker x of Comprehensive Plan as revised Weldon x x Gulliford x Without further discussion, the motion was approved by a 3 - 2 vote with Commissioners Cook and Tucker voting nay. B. Set public hearing date for Use by Exception for used car lot and car rental at the corner of Atlantic Boulevard and Aquatic Drive With the concurrence of the City commission, Mayor Gulliford set the public hearing for April 9, 1990. 7. City Manager Reports and/or Correspondence A. Presentation of needed manpower for Fire Department The City Manager asked Chief Rew to advise the City Commission how the current and proposed manpower would be used. Using graphs, Chief Rew demonstrated the increase in calls answered by the Fire Department. He outlined the allocation of current manpower and explained how the addition of two firefighters would affect scheduling. He listed accomplishments, and explained the capabilities of the department through newly purchased equipment. He said all firefighters have EMT certification and explained ongoing training and departmental goals. The City Manager said he hoped to contact Insurance Services Offices in an attempt to get the insurance rating reduced, which would benefit the entire community. Mayor Gulliford asked Chief Rew to provide him with a breakdown of the department's runs and also the mileages on the new vehicles. After' a full discussion, it was the consensus of the Commission that the two additional positions had been authorized in the budget and no one expressed any objections to hiring them at this time. PAGE SIX V V MINUTES NAME OF MARCH 26, 1990 COMMRS. MSYN The City Manager announced: The committee working on the Community Development Block Grant had recommended the city amend its Block Grant to reflect the needs of the neighborhood. In that connection he requested a public hearing be included as an agenda item at the next regular commission mooting and said the committee will submit recommendations prior to that time. The committee working on the proposed consolidation of the Buccaneer and Atlantic Beach wastewater treatment plants had requested a special meeting be scheduled for in depth discussions on the project, contract, and cost. The meeting was scheduled for Monday, April 2 at 7:15 PM. The Police Department had acquired a dog which was being trained in the area of drug control. The city has invited bids for street sweeping on a contract basis. Commissioner Cook reported the Wonderwood Committee had had their final meeting and had recommended two routes to the Department of Transportation. Mayor Gulliford complimented the City Clerk on the job she has done since her appointment. He pointed out a merit increase had not been given on her anniversary date and solicited the wishes of the Commission. Cook x Edwards x x Motion: Approve salary increase in accordance with the City Tucker x x Manager's recommendation (5%) Weldon x Gulliford x No discussion. The motion carried unanimously. Mayor Gulliford reported he had received a letter from Thelma Griffin offering to sell her property adjacent to Donner Park to the city for $65,000. He said the property had been appraised at $47,000 but Ms. Griffin felt she could not relocate for less than $65,000. He ascertained that with the balance of funds left from the monies donated by Councilman Jarboe, along with city monies allocated for the acquisition of lands for recreational purposes, sufficient funds were available to purchase Ms. Griffin's property. He asked the Commissioners to inspect the property before the next meeting and be prepared to make a decision on the matter at that time. The Mayor also referred to a triangular parcel of property opposite the public safety building which had been discussed at the previous meeting and which could be useful to the city for a parking area. He asked the City Manager to contact the adjacent property owners to see what their reaction would be to the land being used for parking. PAGE SEVEN V V MINUTES NAME OF MARCH 26, 1990 COMMRS.
