BACKGROUND: This budget amendment funds a $1,000 contribution to the
commissioning of the newly built destroyer USS Farragut. The
funds requested are a token amount to assist the Commissioning
Committee's efforts in making this a memorable event for the
community and showing the support of the City of Atlantic Beach
for the local impact the Navy presence has on our community.
Jill Jackson, President of the Friends of Atlantic Beach Elementary has
requested that the City Commission increase the budget for the track from
$25,000 to $50,000. While her letter requests that the City reallocate the
$10,000 for the landscaping/Sherry Drive improvements to this track
project, it is their intent to request replacement funding for this from the
City in the future. At the April 10, 2006 commission meeting, the
Commission agreed to reallocate the $10,000 for the landscaping as
requested and add an additional $10,000 for the project. Art Graham of
the City of Jacksonville agreed to fund the remaining $5,000 requested.
The Friends of Atlantic Beach Elementary have also worked with the
~. school board to prepare a Memorandum of Understanding which is ready
for approval.
BUDGET: The total net impact of this ordinance on the City's fund balances
is a reduction of $11,000.
