Training Course Development and Instruction - Maximum Annual Points = 4 Should a manager develop a significant [raining course repre- senting exceptional effort which the Ci[y subsequently adopts, he/she will be awarded two (2) incentive points. If he/she also [e aches the course the City will award one (1) additional incentive point. A training course which a manager would be expected [o develop and teach as a normal pat[ of Isis duties would no[ qual lfy as points-earning under [his category. O[i~er Achievements - Maximum Annual Incentive Points = 4 Municipal Service Achievement Certain volunteer efforts in a civlt group constitute a noteworthy contribution Co [he community. Such achievements have inherent reward and personal satisfaction. Mowever, because these achievements benefit the Ci[y through profes- sional development, public relations and other nays, an employee may receive [vo (2) incentive paints for such an achievement Examples of this subcategory vhicb may be used as a guideline are: a. An employee chairs a coauai[[ee in his/ her .civic group and [he committee is responsible fcr beautifying [he dowt- [ovn area. b. An employee leads an underprivileged neighborhood boy scout troop that con- ducts a neighborhood clean and spruce- up campaign. c. An employee's efforts in Isis/her civic group es[abli sly a program ass is CEng senior citizens in [he common i[}•. Special Achievement - A[ [he discretion of and approval by Che City Manager, an employee may be awarded one (1) incentive point for some special achievement not anticipated by [his program worthy of recognition and reward. Examples Below are [he examples of four hypo[het Seal employees par- ticipa[Son levels vhicb demonstrate how employees with differ- ent motivations may participate in [he program. -b- +r Noteworthy Achieveme its - Ma i A n al I ce [L P t - 2 From [rme [o time an employee may perform a function Ln an outstanding manner. Usually, this achievement represents performance "beyond the call of duty". Such an achievement warrants recognition Eor its owm sake, but Ln addition, will earn two (2) incentive points. A few examples of noteworthy achievement are: a. A department head achieves significant budgetary expenditures reduction with no loss of service delivery. b. A manager's work group receives a special tit a[ion from the press, City Commission or civic group for its ou[- s[anding performance in a specific area. Safely Record - Maximum An 1 I ~ nti e P i [ - 5 2 When a manager's work unit or department's annual work record reflects a low incidence rate of accidents judged "employee preventable", the responsible manager and/or department head, as appropriate, will earn incentive points according [o [he Lazard level of his/her unit's working environment. Often this low incidence rate can he measured by its favorable effect upon Workman's Compensa[fon and Liability insurance ratings and subsequent premium costs, hazard level point valuations are as follows: non-Hazardous ,5 hazardous z,p The work environment hazard level de[etmina[f en will be made by the personnel office after consultation with individual managers and department I:eads, and/or [he C1 [}' Manager, as may be appropriate. Professional Achievements An individual's participation and achievements in his/her professional organization enhance the professional development of [he individual. This in turn contributes Coward greater effectiveness in [he individual's work performance. Addition- ally, such achievements may reflect favorably upon Cl:e City. Therefore, two (2) incentive points will be awarded for achievement at [he regional, state or national level, and one (I) incentive point will be awarded for achievements a[ [he local level. Below are examples of professional achievements which would earn incentive points. a. An employee serves as an officer in his/her professional association a[ [he local, state, regional or national level. -5- .p_ In-i{u use Training - All in-Douse [raining sessions will be coordinated and ap- proved as [o structure, content and incentive point valuation by [he personnel office. Such [raining must 6e structured so [ha[ incentive points can be awarded based on common and uniCo rm criteria, suc1~ as classroom or on-[lie-job instruction time. Thus, as an example, a siz-hour training session on "Effective Budge[ Ffon i[oring" would rate .5 incentive point. Category 2 - Performance There is no overall maximum number of incentive points an employee may earn in a one-year period in [hIs category. However, there are maximum poin[.accumulation limitations as indicated, placed on some sub-categories of performance. Point distribution in Cris category is as follows: Overall Wnrk Performance - Maximum Annual Points B 2 Each employee's work performance will be evaluated semi-annually based on accomplishment of goals and objectives established by the employee, his depa rtmen[ head and/or [hc City Manager, as may be appropriate. Other criteria may also be used [o measure an employee's managerial effectiveness such as number and nature of grievance filings, absenteeism or Turnover rates. A11 measurement criteria selected for work performance wdll be based upon realistic and objective factors that are within the employee's responsibility and authority. A performance rating that indicates overall performance exceeds a minimum level of satisfactory performance will merit two (2) incentive points. Longevity - No Maximum Annual Incentive Points Contingent upon an overall work performance evaluation in- dicating at leas[ a satisfactory level of performance, an employee will earn one (I) incentive point for a one-year period of continuous service. For example, a[ tine completion of Four (4) years of satisfactory service an employee would earn one (1) incentive point. Additional incentive points, as shown below will be awarded for continuous satisfactory service at particular longevity milestones. For example, an employee upon comple [ion of fifteen (15) years satisfactory service, would earn one (1) incentive i+uin[ for the previous year's satisfactory service plus an additional 1.5 points for his/her IS year milestone fora total of 2.5 longevity points. Y EAP.S OF SERVICE INCENTIVE POINTS 5 years .5 ]0 years 1.0 15 years 1.5 20 years 2.0 Each additional five year increment .5 -4- College Level Examina[Lon Program Tescs (C[FP) d Other Equivalency Examina[iens - Upon proof of successful attainment an employee will earn one (1) incentive point Cor each exavina[ion successfully complet- ed. `/ocational!Techn ical School Courses and Non-Credit Courses - Upon proof of successful course completion an employee will earn .b incentive point for each con [l nu ing education unit (CEU). Should CF.U's no[ he given, [iie personnel office will ascertain the course hourly equivalent and credit the employee with the appropriate numher of incentive points. CorresDOndence Courses - Each correspondence course will he evaluated by Che personnel office for point value determination. Point values will be determined primarily upon hour equivalency to college courses. Other Criteria, as appropriate, may Include course complexity or difficulty. Upon proof of successful completion, .5 - 3 incentive points will be credited [o the employee. Certificates - The attainment of certain cert if ica[es may represent a signif- icant achievement in addition [o [he individual course work which led [o the cer[if irate award. Fot [his reason, points will be awarded for such an accomplishment. For purposes of definition and understanding, major cert if lc at es are defined as generally requiring a body of various study areas leading to one certificate of completion. This may likely involve more Chan one educational course. Minor cer[ifica[¢s, conversely, are usually comprised of fewer s[udv areas leading to the cer[Sf is ate. The minor certifies cignify proficiency is a more narrow sense. Major certification, sue 1~ as a CPA (Certified Public Accountant) or PE (Regis[¢red Professional Engineer), will merit Chrec (}) points. Minor cert if States, such as might be awarded for demoustra[ed proficiency in "Supervisory Developmen [", will merit one (L) point. The personnel office will determine certificate point value after consultation with the organization conferring the certificate. Seminars - Successful completion of seminars or other classroom training, however termed, attended in the Ci[y or elsewhere, will merit .5 incentive point for each 6 - B hour increment of instruction. Thus, a two-day seminar on "Planning, Building, and Zoning Administration" as an example, would rate one (1) incentive point. _3_ .~- - Provide a means and equal opportunity for all employees [o increase their skills and pay. This program is designed [o reward employees for a variety of valuable activities. I[ is [he City's desire [ha[ the Ci[y and its individual emp lo}'ees experience continual growth in the quality of services provided [he [azpayers of [he City of Atlantic Beach. This program will also provide for employee counseling and guidance so U~at all employees may par[ic ipate in the program and experience the rewards i[ offers. HOW TO PART LCIPATE IN TIIF.

Rezoning would represent "spot zoning" and the opening of [he "pandora's box" of unrestrained rezoning for financial gain. 2. The character of [he beach strand you ld be violated. !lay I make 2 points? i 1. I am satisfied with the current zoning of Atlantic Beach - leave it be! 2.

The legal basis for land use and planning regulations is the police power of the City to protect the public health, safety and welfare of its residents. Berman~• hark ~'iceB ower ?bf(1it54ts A land use restriction is within p P reasonably related to the public welfare. As Justice William 0. Douglas, speakstatedr the United Stales Supreme Court, in Berman, su ra., p•33, The concept of the public Thef values broad and inclusive . it represents are spiritual as well as physical, aesthetic as well as monetary. It is within the power of the legislature to determine that the community should be beautiful as well as healthy, spacious as well as clean, well-balanced as well as carefully patrolled. In exercising police power, the City must act at times within certain statutory guidelines so there will be no "conflict with general laws," in other words, without preemption, and operate the hpower awhich would violatelthe const itucionalopcin iple ofe due process. The police power is an elastic power. Regulations are time aagoa might hav ec beenecondemn tas na rbitrary and unreasonable.

I recommend the purchase of the above described truck for the price of $4,188. The City Finance Director has indicated that there are federal revenue sharing funds available. I don't believe that the bid process would be productive in such a purchase, and the lifeguards need vehicles as soon as possible. Note; Need for 2nd Vehicle... The beach front area to be covered y i eguar s as oubled since last year. For this reason, the emergency response by one lifeguard truck is cause for concern. 1.) Distance - The 2.5 miles of beach is time consuming and difficult to travel safely. If one truck has to drive from Sea Turtle to the north end to assist a guard, the response time may be 8-SO minutes. 2.) The pier at the Cloisters may eventually obstruct the passage of a truck due to errossion or the build up of sand. 3.) There mny be more than one emergency at a time. Two trucks based at different locations would provide safer and quicker responses to emergencies to better protect the people using our beaches. Your/s truly, / /~~/~ G CL'Lts/~_Z='~GCFj~ David E.

Chirl May 8, 1987 Richard C. Fellows City Manager Atlantic Beach, F1. Dear Mr. Fellows The Lifeguards need to purchase transportation for this season, and I hope you will consider the following recommendations. The lifeguard trucks npod fn be, used, 4 wheel drive, full. sized, pick-up trucks with standard or long beds. 1.) Used - The trucks will be exposed to the salt water and beach conditions making the purchase of a "new" vehicle impractical. 2.) 4 Wheel Drive - For use in the soft sand at high tide, a 4 wheel drive is a must. We have found previous 2 wheel drive trucks easily stuck in the sand and difficult to steer without proper traction. We have also had to put previous trucks on the paved roadway when they were unable to function on the beach. 3.) Full Sized - Smaller pick-ups do net have the necessary room to place lifeguards, injured persons and equipment for our needs. The Lifeguard Captain, Todd Smith has located a 4 wheel drive pick-up for our consideration. It is a 1980 Ford with an 8 cylinder engine and standard transmission. IC has been evaluated by masters Auto Care and by city mechanics, and both feel that the truck is in exceptionally good condition and well priced at E4,188. The blue book value is X4,025. as checked at the Ocean State Bank. We have contacted: Don Gasgarth Used Cars, Tom Bush Toyota, etc, Caruso Chrysler Plymouth, Duval Ford, Ernie Palmer, McCue's Used Cars and Jamie Curry (used car dealership owner). None of these has had or located a suitable vehicle.
