pledge to the flag.

2. Recognition of Visitors
Joanne Morrisseau and Roxanne Curry, representatives of the firm of
,harry, Pappas, Morrisseau, which had been contracted to promote the
mandatory recycling program to become effective July 4, 1989,
presented a brief program stressing the importance of education.
Ricky Raccoon, the program mascot, was introduced and a brief
outline of the program was presented. Caroline Mansfield sang a
jingle about recycling and invited the audience to join in.
* * * * * * * * * *
Ray Schaubell, 423 20th Street, addressed the commission relative to
a fence which had recently been constructed by a neighbor and which
he felt was not in keeping with the intent of the recently passed
ordinance establishing a method for measuring the height of fences
and walls. He explained at some length his contacts with city
employees relative to the issuance of the permit and the
construction of the fence. The City Manager said he felt the
intent of the ordinance was that no fence should be higher than six
feet. The construction of a six foot fence on top of a burro would
be an apparent attempt to circumvent the requirement of the
ordinance and Ms. Angers had indicated she would contact the
property owner when she returned from vacation and request that the
fence be removed.
Mayor Gulliford said the commission may wish to review the
)rdinance to see if the intent of the Commission could be
:larified.

Consent Agenda Item A
Commissioner Cook asked what criteria had been used for the
selection of the City Manager Search Committee. Mayor Gulliford
said, with the exception of Ms. King, this was the committee which
had reviewed the City Clerk applications, and it was his wish to
bring the selection before the Commission for their approval and
any suggestions they may wish to make.

Consent Agenda Item D
:commissioner Cook asked for an explanation of the proposed
"computer modeling." The City Manager explained last August Gee
and Jenson had reported two problems in the Buccaneer system; the
unequal distribution of chlorine and a problem with low pressure.
The chlorine distribution problem had been corrected and Gee and
Jenson had also recommended a computer modeling hydraulic study of
the system to determine the mains which needed to be increased in
size or replaced, to eliminate the low pressure problem. No action
had been taken on that, and since hooking up the Oak Harbor
subdivision, the low pressure problem had worsened. Gee and Jenson
indicated the price quoted last August would still be honored and
the work could be accomplished under their existing contract for
water plant and water main improvements. The City Manager further
explained a computer print-out would provide an illustration of the
Buccaneer system and Harry McNally, Buccaneer Division Chief, said
the price of $13,000 would include a considerable amount of field
work.

4. Committee Reports
A. Commissioner Glenn Edwards, Chairman of the Awards Committee,
with the recommendations of the committee relative to auditors
for the upcoming fiscal year
Commissioner Edwards reported the committee had ranked the top four
firms in the following order: Purvis Gray & Company, Coopers and
Lybrand, Arthur Young, and Touche Ross.
Representatives from Purvis Gray and Company said they felt their
company was well qualified to do the work. They had been involved
in governmental auditing since 1946 and currently audit fourteen
cities, including Green Cove Springs. They proposed a fee of
$14,000 which would include all the services outlined in the RFP.
Mayor Gulliford asked that the Commission be given some time to
consider the fee and for the Finance Director to report back at the
next meeting, after which an agreement could be formalized.
B. Commissioner Glenn Edwards, chairman of the Awards Committee,
with a report and recommendations relative to the bids
received for fire engines and fire equipment.
2ommissioner Edwards reported, after considerable discussion and
review and evaluation of the bids, Emergency One was the low bidder
on the fire truck at $178,000 and the mini-pumper at $52,000. The
committee recommended the bids, totalling $294,096.06 be awarded as
follows: Arrow Products, Longwood, Florida $13,341.14; Motorola,
Jacksonville, Florida $5,651.00; Ten-8 Fire Company, Orlando,
Florida $41,845.61; and Emergency One, Ocala, Florida $233,258.31.
Cook x
Nbtion: Authorize awarding bid in accordance with the Edwards x x
recommendations of the committee Jensen x
Tucker x x
Brief discussion followed relative to financing and it was pointed GUlliford x
out First Union had quoted a rate 8.04% which was considered an
excellent rate. The City Attorney said ad valorem taxes could not
be used and he would look into alternative sources of revenue which
could be used, subject to the approval of the commission.
The question was called and the motion carried unanimously.
C. Commissioner Glenn Edwards, chairman of the Awards Committee,
with a report and recommendations on bids received on used
garbage trucks
Commissioner Edwards reported no bids had been received for the
purchase of the city's used garbage trucks. After a full
liscussion by the committee, it was their recommendation the trucks
,.ie declared surplus and sold a public auction.
•
PAGE FIVE V V
MINUTES NAME OF
MAY 22, 1989 COMMRS. MSYN
After further discussion, Mayor Gulliford asked that invitations to
bid be sent to cities in the northeast Florida area and go through
the bidding process again. If this is not successful the trucks
could be disposed of at public auction at a future date.
5. Old Business:
A. Further discussions in regards to comments by citizens on the
safety aspects of jet skis
Mayor Gulliford asked Chief Thompson to report relative to his
research on the subject. Chief Thompson said the Marine Patrol had
recommended enforcement be done by the police department and had
provided them with boating citations and manuals and had agreed to
provide personnel to train the officers. The lifeguards would be
on duty daily between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM within a few days and
they would contact the police department regarding any problems.
He outlined some of the safety features of the vehicles indicating
the vehicles appear to be quite safe unless used carelessly.
Bill Gaston of Kawasaki presented the Commission with information
brochures on the Kawasaki "Jet-Ski." Ross Bremmer, 1502 Beach
Avenue, said similar fears were experienced some years ago when
surfing became popular. He felt after the initial reaction died
Sown swimmers, surfers, and personal watercraft users should all be
able to enjoy the beach. He said there were only a few beach
accesses suitable for launching of watercraft and parking was a
problem.
Alan Hall, 1948 Brista de Mar Circle, encouraged the police
department to cite reckless users of personal watercraft. He said
he had been keeping a close watch on the situation for the past
three weeks and had observed only one skier behaving recklessly and
would hate to see the sport banned because of the irresponsibility
of a very few people. Cheryl Seaton, 2250 Beachcomber Trail,
agreed with Mr. Hall and suggested very stiff fines for violators.
She said she did not want to have to give up her vehicle because
someone else abused theirs.
Edward Kneeland, Chateau Condominium, said he had observed both
skiers and surfers operating their skis and surfboards, while at
the same time, swimmers were swimming in the surf. He suggested
identification of vehicles and enforcement of regulations would be
made much easier if the police had a jet ski at their disposal and
suggested Kawasaki consider providing a machine for their use.
Ross Bremmer said the jet ski would also be an invaluable tool for
rescue purposes.
John Bailey, 1923 Beach Avenue, commented on the noise and Jimmy
Hill, 659 Beach Avenue, said the modified skis are much louder and
faster than the regular ski and are not appropriate for the beach.
He felt to restrict the use of skis to certain areas would only
PAGE SIX V V
MINUTES NAME OF
MAY 22, 1989 COMMRS. MSYN
cause congestion and create hazardous conditions. However, he felt
restricting launch to certain areas would be helpful.
Commissioner Cook asked if current laws would provide sufficient
regulations and Chief Thompson pointed out motorized vehicles are
presently required to stay 200 feet off shore and operators could
be arrested for violations similar to automobile drivers.
Dezmond Waters suggested if the lifeguards are to be responsible
for policing the jet skis, additional lifeguards and training
should be considered.
Commissioner Jensen said he felt access to the water would be
restricted by the number of ramps available. The city may wish to
establish specific launch areas.
Mayor Gulliford said the idea of a designated launch area should be
pursued further. He expressed interest in the possibility of
acquiring a jet ski for the use of the police department. He felt
the situation should be monitored for the next thirty days or so
and discussed again with the Commission.
At this time the mayor called a short recess.
B. Further Discussion on evaluations of speeding on the north
portions of Ocean Boulevard and Fast Coast Drive north of
Tenth Street.
Chief Thompson reported two accidents had occurred on the north end
of East Coast Drive and two on the north end of Ocean Boulevard in
recent years. Speed was not a factor in either accident. He said
East Coast Drive had a higher volume of traffic and experienced
more speeding. His recommendation was to install a stop sign at
the intersection of Fifteenth Street and East Coast Drive. This
should help to slow the traffic coming south off Seminole Road onto
East Coast Drive.
Cook x x
Motion: Install stop sign in accordance with the Edwards x
recommendation of the police department Jensen x x
Tucker x
No further discussion. The motion carried unanimously. Gulliford x
6. New Business:
A. Discussion on the adoption and approval of Resolution 89-23
and 89-24 relative to the City's participation in the First
Municipal Loan Council in the amount of $800,000 for
construction of a new City Hall
Mayor Gulliford presented Resolution No. 89-23:
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A SECONDARY AMENDMENT TO
PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT EVIDENCING A LOAN FROM THE FIRST MUNICIPAL

B. Public hearing on an appeal filed by Mark Kredell fnan a
decision of the Cbmmunity Development Board denying him a
variance for a substandard lot of record on the southwest
corner of 18th Street and Beach Avenue
Mayor Gulliford asked the City Attorney to report on his research
and review of this subject. The City Attorney explained a sub-
standard lot which did not have a width of 50 feet and a depth of
100 feet, with a total area of not less than 5,000 sq. ft. could
not be built on unless relief was obtained through action of the
Community Development Board. The Community Development Board had
denied the request for variance. In accordance with the City Code,
the Community Development Board had final jurisdiction in this
matter and the Commission did not have the authority to override
their decision.
Commissioner Cook said he felt the City Commission should be the
body for ultimate appeal on any matter and suggested this section
of the code should possibly be amended.
Commissioner Jensen said he hoped in the future people would be
advised of this provision and not have to waste time pursuing such
appeals.
7. Action on Ordinances:

nothing contained in the ordinance would require the city to
increase its charges for utility service to areas outside the Oak
Harbor district. It was his feeling the city should insist that
clause remain in the ordinance. Another change which had been
requested and which he was not ready to recommend, was the
provision relating to the incremental cost as designed by the City
Manager and Finance Director.
Mayor Gulliford asked the City Manager to provide the Commission
for their review copies of the sections of Ordinance No. 80-88-37
which are proposed to be amended.
The question was called and the motion carried unanimously.
8. Miscellaneous Business:
Mayor Gulliford asked Commissioner Jensen to address the question
of rezoning of lots 41-60, North Atlantic Beach.
Commissioner Jensen requested, in order to bring the zoning of the
lots in question into conformity with the objective set forth in
the comprehensive plan, that an ordinance be drafted for
introduction at the next meeting to rezone those lots to RG1,
excepting from the rezoning the lots owned by any property owners
specifically opposed to the rezoning.
The City Manager reported in response to a request by the mayor,
projected revenues for the next fiscal year had been prepared for
each commissioner for their review. The mayor also asked that a
schedule of fees which comprise the revenues also be prepared.
A workshop for the purpose of discussing revenues would be
scheduled at a later time.
Commissioner Edwards reported response to the request for petitions
against the unfunded state mandates was extremely poor. He asked
asked the Commission to encourage registered voters to sign the
petitions.
Commissioner Cook announced the next meeting of the Wonderwood
committee would be at Mayport Junior High School on Thursday, May
25 at 4:30 PM. He said attendance at the meetings at the beach was
extremely poor compared to the Arlington meetings and encouraged as
many as possible to attend.
Commissioner Jensen reported he and Mr. Mullis had met and reviewed
some issues in connection with legal fees. They plan to continue
working on this subject and report back to the Commission with a
draft of a contract outlining duties and responsibilites to be
covered under the retainer, and addressing litigation and other
?xpenses.

Mayor Gulliford said while he may change some procedures within the
city, such as the introduction of the Consent Agenda, it was not
his intention to make any change in established policy. The
purpose of the Consent Agenda was to speed up routine matters, but
in no way was it intended to take away any powers of review or
discussion from the commissioners. He reminded them that any item
may be withdrawn for discussion and individual action.
There being no further business to come before the Commission, the
mayor declared the meeting adjourned at 9:05 PM.
