08-25-86 v UNOFFICIAL MINUTES OF THE BUDGET WORKSHOP MEETING OF THE ATLANTIC
BEACH CITY COMMISSION HELD AT CITY HALL ON AUGUST 25,1986 AT 9:15 PM.
Mayor Pro Tem Gulliford called the budget workshop meeting to order at 9:15
p.m. Those present were Mayor Howell, Commissioners Cook, Edwards, Gulliford
and Morris, City Manager Fellows, City Clerk Tucker, and all Department Heads.
Mr. Fellows mentioned as he had previously, the budget that was before the
Commission with nothing cut out, had the roll back rate in place. He said
when all items had been cut or added as desired by the Commission, the City
Manager will come back with the new rate.
The warehouse storage building for Public Works was the first to discuss.
Acct. 30-541-6200, Capital Project. Mr.Fellows reported they had re-figured
the cost and estimated the warehouse could be build for $28,000 by utilizing
one of the existing bays and chain length it in, so all materials could be
under lock and key and available to only limited personnel. Materials are now
stored in various departments, some under lock and key. There was no inventory
control system. Commissioner Gulliford suggested an inventory control system
be set up, and evaluate for one year, and see how much loss/gain was involved.
Mr. Braid said they presently had a store keeper and would try to control
the inventory with limited access. Discussion followed on whether $28,000
would be sufficient.
Commissioner Cook moved to delete the amount of $50,000 for the warehouse.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Edwards. Following discussion, the
question was called and the motion carried unanimously.
It was the consensus of the Commission that Public Works needed to set up a
system for controlling inventory and assets owned by the city. A lengthy
discussion followed on the trials and tribulations of storekeepers. Also
pros and cons of cardex system against computers.
Commissioner Morris moved to replace the $50,000 for warehouse with $5,000
for the setup of inventory and controls,and a study of space needed for
storage of parts and equipment. The motion was seconded by Commissioner
Cook and carried unanimously.
Acct. 30-541-6200, Capital projects. New Public Safety Bldg. The engineers
reported the location selected was on land fill, and the soil report said
it would have to be excavated to almost eight feet deep and replaced with
clean fill or built on pilings. The architect felt building on pilings
would be the most cost effective method. Estimated cost $50,000-$75,000.
Mayor Howell moved to add $50,000 to the new Public Safety Building cost
to have a total of $400,000. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Edwards
and carried unanimously.
The Commission had asked if another type of building was available for
the Recreational Coordinator. Mr. Fellows reported he had obtained prices
on temporary buildings that would accommodate Dial-a-Ride and recreation.
Price would be $2400 annually. That would save approximately $12,000 by the
time the building was moved on site and tied down, and then moved off again.
It was not known if grant funds would pay for the rental of a building.
The recreational facilities would be grant funded. Approximately $20,000
PAGE TWO
BUDGET WORKSHOP
AUGUST 25, 1986
would be the approximate cost. After discussion, line item of recreation
building and improvements was dropped from $30,000 to $20,0000. ,however there
would only be a gain of $5,000. Acct. 15-75-6200. Total recreation capital
improvement budget including tennis courts & lights for $29,000 (item 24)
would be $49,000.
Acct. 41-535-6400 and 14-596-6400 Sludge hauler was discussed. Reduce cost to
a total of $75,000 instead of $81,000. (line 22)
911 Equipment. Chief Thompson reported the 911 coordinator in Jacksonville was
planning to ask for a raise in the surcharge on the phone lines that will fund
the equipment for the beaches. In theory, the extra surcharge, effective as of
February, would pay for all the first time expenses for the equipment. He re-
minded the Commission that was only the intent, and he had nothing in writing
to that effect.
Commissioner Morris moved to strike $5,000 from the police dept. 911
equipment. The motion was seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Gulliford. Mayor Howell
reminded the Commission they may have to come back and fund a portion of the
$5,000 just in case the City of Jacksonville did not come through with their
intent. He agreed they should strike the item at that time. The question was
called and the motion carried unanimously.
Acct. 01-521-6400 - Photo equipment. Leave in $600.
File cabinets . Mr. Fellows reported the state price was $160.00 for a steel
case. City had been using Hahn which were a better quality. Also the State
contract was a firm out of Tallahassee, so delivery time could be a factor.
Mr. Royal commented the latest Hahn cost $201.00, not $290.00 Mayor Howell
moved for items 3, 5, and 13, misc. equipment, to be changed from $290 to
$220. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Edwards and carried unanimously.
Item 29, Sidewalks, $50,000. Mr. Fellows reported that was not the $50,000
plugged in for the current year. That was an additional $50,000. Commissioner
Morris moved to reduce $50,000 for sidewalks to $25,000. The motion was
seconded by Mayor Howell and carried unanimously.
Mayor Pro Tem noted the cut now added to approximately $71,210.
Drainage improvements, line 30 and 31. leave in.
Items 35,36, and 37 page 2 would be funded out of the Fla. Municipal Loan
program. Leave alone.
Line 40-pick up truck. Commissioner Edwards suggested they disregard the pur-
chase of a diesel and purchase a regular truck. Commissioner Cook moved to
strike $12,411 for diesel truck and purchase a truck for a maximum of $10,000.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Edwards and carried unanimously.
Sodding for new pond, $15,000. leave in.

AUGUST 25, 1986
Item 54 - 2 Cushman pickups - Mr. Braid reported they had decided, after
lengthy discussion, it would be wise to purchase one cushman and two units to
fit on the back of pickups. Leave in.
Item 59 Central Lube for Sewer Plt. For Buccaneer. Leave in.
Discussion on items 49 and 50, TV, Clean, Repair, Sewer Lines, and sewer line
replacement. No action taken.
Proposed additional personnel
$15,000 for 15 volunteers gear @ $900 per man. Following discussion,
Commissioner Cook moved to reduce the amount to $10,000. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner Edwards and carried unanimously.
15 Volunteers, $19,710 to cover 365 nights @$4.50 hr. A Lengthy discussion
followed on volunteer/part-time pay or not to pay. Mayor Howell moved to
hold off paying any volunteers. Strike $19,710. If someone comes up with a
plan that will work, they can come back in and ask for the money to be put
back in. Leave the $10,000 already approved to buy extra equipment and see
if we can't create a little esprit de corps with the equipment, beepers,
volunteer cards, etc. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Edwards and
carried unanimously.
2 Police Officers - Leave in -
Assistant Mechanic- Mr. Braid reported if the city did all the preventative
maintenance outside, it would cost the city approximately $35,000 per year,
and that cost was before any repairs were made. Leave in. The suggestion
was made to name the position "preventative maintenance mechanic or
maintenance mechanic" or maybe leave out the word "mechanic". Do not use
the title "Assistant Mechanic" in the newly created position.
Sewage Operator - $15,308 Following lengthy discussion, Mayor Pro Tem
Gulliford suggested Commissioner Edwards meet with the City Manager for
further discussion, and report back at the next meeting.
Mayor Howell moved to hire a full time Animal Control Officer @ $15,000.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Morris and carried unanimously.
There being no other items to discuss on the budget, Mayor Pro Tem Gulliford
adjourned the meeting at 11:45 p.m.

2. Recognition of Visitors
The Chair recognized Mr. Jerry Randall Salis, Jr. , 10557 Moncrief-
Dinsmore Extension Rd. who informed the Commission that a group of
Dinsmore citizens had signed petitions for secession of the people and
their properties within the outline of the area called Dinsmore from the
Consolidated City of Jacksonville, to be known as the City of Dinsmore,
and incorporated by Charter as such. He hoped all of their surrounding
cities would join in to fight consolidation. Following discussion, the
Mayor thanked Mr. Salis for coming.
3. Appearances
Mr. Robert Hill, of Bessent, Hammack and Ruckman, for further discussions
relative to public improvements in Section H.
Mr. Hill reported they had made the modifications necessary to reflect
the project area which would be 22 blocks west of Main st. Total cost
of the project was 3.2 million dollars. The city's cost would be 2.6
million for Area I, and $358,000 for Area II. Cost for Area I was $47.03
front foot, and Area II cost stayed at $21.84 front foot if they were
separate. If the cost were combined into one cost, the cost would drop
fi6.00 in Area I and would come up in Area to $41.30 front foot.
Mr. Weathers offered suggestions for a financing program. He recommended
the city secure the loan by special assessments with a back up pledge of
the City's Electrical Franchise Tax and Local Option Gas tax as further

security. That would secure the city of an excellent interest rate. He
told the Commission they would like a Resolution so drafted to protect
the city that would say once the required amount had been deposited in
required fund accounts, all the remaining funds would be released for
any lawful purpose.
Mr. Weathers recommended the bond issue be amortized for a period of 20
years, with the assessment for a period of 18 years. He suggested the
Bond issue include capitalized interest for two years. He offered an
estimated timetable and sequence of events, and a conventional financing
plan based on current market conditions. The plan would be updated prior
to letting construction contracts. Completion date could be October or
November 1988.
Following Mr. Weathers presentation, it was determined to continue
discussion at a later date, possibly on Thursday, September 4, 1986.

Mrs. Peggy Cornelius, Chairman of the Beaches Area Chamber of Commerce
Beautification Committee advised the Commission the Landscaping Companies
bidding on the palm trees had agreed to maintain and replace the palm
trees for two years instead of one as told to the Commission during the
August 11th meeting. Mayor Howell asked if she understood the city limits
of Atlantic Beach did not go to the intercoastal, and she responded in
the affirmative. Forrest Boone was working with the City of Jacksonville
to get that straightened out.

Commissioner Gulliford asked the City Attorney for his response on the
bed tax. Mr. Mullis replied he had not received any response from the
City of Jacksonville, and no response from the Department of Revenue
as to the amount of bed tax that had been collected in Atlantic Beach
since May 28, 1984. Commissioner Gulliford called the Commission's
attention to the copy of Senator Mattox Hair's letter to the Mayor,
"As you know, I have always taken the position that this tax should be
shared with the beaches cities according to the provisions of section
212.0305, Florida Statutes. It was the intent of the Legislature when
Chapter 83-356 was enacted that the proceeds of the tax be shared with
the communities in which the tax had been collected." Commissioner

Gulliford expressed the opinion if the city did not receive a response
within a certain defined period of time, the Commission should instruct
the City Attorney to take the appropriate action to collect what was
"Morally and legally due us". The City Attorney will present a more
definitive report at the next meeting.
Commissioner Gulliford asked if he was to assume that everyone on the
new listing furnished the Commission of Commissioners, employees, and
boards fell under the State requirement to file financial disclosure.
The City Manager responded in the affirmative. Commissioner Gulliford
asked if the list classified those that were not appointed or elected,
but were full time employees of the city, as officers of the city.
Mr. Fellows said they were classed as local officers, but subject to the
financial disclosure law. The definition by the Fl Statutes would differ-
entiate the two officers, local, etc. The City Attorney added certain
specified employees were also required to file.
The City Manager noted in evaluation of the intersection of Mayport and
Plaza indicated a need for lengthening the storage lane because of the
backup of traffic. The lane could be lengthened to get the additional
torage needed without widening the intersection. Mr. Fellows had re-
eived two quotations for the engineering work: Smith & Gillespie,
$6,400. and Connelly & Wicker for $3,500. He requested guidance from
the Commission. It was pointed out the reason for hiring an engineer
was a drainage problem at that location.
Motion: Enter into an agreement with Connelly & Wicker for Cook x
engineering work to lengthen the storage lane at Edwards x
Mayport Rd. and Plaza in the amount of $3,500. Gulliford x x
