Mayor Howell recognized visitors and called for any business from
the floor not on the Agenda.
The Reverend William Jordan requested the help of the Commission
in having safer school crossings for pick-ups on Mayport Road
at Jackson Road and Church Road. There was a lengthy discussion
in which it was brought out that Chief Stucki has been in contact
with the School Board traffic engineer on this problem. There
are several other stops on Mayport Road and it would not be
possible to supply school guards at all of them. We tried pre-
viously to get an overwalk for the children but were not success-
ful. Mr. Johansen suggested we officially contact the School
Board c;n this prkb13m. Mr. Lingo mved we contact the School
Board and see what can be worked out, seconded by Mr. Johansen.
There was further discussion in which the Reverend Jordan was
asked to see if he could find someone who would do the job as
guard at the crossing. If someone can be found, contact the City
Manager, then we will try and negotiate as to pay, as we realize
the situation is serious . Following discussion Mr. Howell put
the question and the motion carried.
Mr. Robert Whyte inquired of the City Manager as to rumors going
around relative to what is going to happen at the Atlantic Beach
Hotel site. Mr. Vogel advised we had no information other than
that a permit was issued to raze the hotel in order to get it
off the tax roll . No other permits have been applied for or issued.
Mrs. McAllister asked for a statement or progress report on sewer
expansion and treatment. Mr. Vogel advised that our engineer is
working on plans which have to be approved by the State and
41N
Minutes 11/10/69 Page #2
Federal Governments and we have to work our way up on the priority
list before we can get any government assistance, then have to sell
bonds. She asked if plans were stalled and Mr. Vogel advised we are
moving forward and will have plans by next March or April .
Mr. Harry Williams appeared representing Mr. John McCoy who owns property
at 270 Mayport Road, advising they have a lease agreement pending with
Thor Chevrolet. In looking at our Zoning Ordinance it provides that in
Business "A" there can be no outside storage of inventory. He does not
know whether we classify automobiles as inventory or not. Before he can
enter into the lease agreement he would like to know if used and new
cars are considered inventory. There will be no repairs done there,
only sales. The Thor Chevrolet representative advised they plan to
paint, clean up and improve the property and expect to have some 15 or
20 cars there. There was further discussion following which Mr.
Rosborough moved that the matter be referred to the City Manager and
City Attorney and if it does not violate Ordinance to give them per-
mission to do, seconded by Mr. Longo and carried.
Mr. Vogel requested that a review be made of the garbage fee Ordinance
to determine what needs to be done as we continue to lose money on it,
approximately $15,000.00 a year. It was suggested that the electric
fee Ordinance be studied at same time, as it has been years since
present Ordinance was passed and we need to update. Mr. Johansen
suggested and moved that a Committee be appointed to study the garbage
and electric permit fees, seconded by Mr. Rosborough and carried.
Commissioner Minton, City Manager Vogel and Mr. Hilliard were appointed
as Committee.
